Out of town
Chu Ying said to Chu Tao: "You slapped those two slaps just now very well, that old slut dares to be so arrogant, I will definitely not let her go in the future." ”
Chu Tao said distressedly: "Sister, I know that you are eager to save people, but you also have to take care of the child in the belly, in case there are ingredients in that medicine that hurt the fetus, woo woo woo woo that brother-in-law will beat me to death, woo woo woo you don't know how painful it is for your brother-in-law to beat someone, sister might as well make a look and let me drink it." ”
Chu Sakura smiled and said, "When did you still tease your brother-in-law with me, I pinched you a few times last time, and I blamed you for talking too much, and you deserved it." ”
"I have a sense of proportion among the people in the hospital, they dare to prescribe a prescription before they arrive, this prescription must be just some mild tonic, not in the way, although it is a three-point poison, didn't I vomit it just now, this trick is not a risk." Hatsuzakura comforted softly.
Chu Tao said: "The crown princess intends to make things difficult for the third princess, but we are not fools, isn't this the prince coming at us!" This kind of person, who is so bad, doesn't care about the life and death of others, I hate him to death, he can't die well. ”
Hatsu Sakura said slowly: "Peach, princess, she really ...... It's not good, we have to plan for the worst, you have also seen, the doctors in our house are helpless, and the famous doctors of the people have also been invited over, and I just thought of asking for a doctor when I was desperate today, but I didn't expect to be put by the princess. ”
"Ah...... What my sister meant, the princess ......" Chu Tao cried out all of a sudden, cried and walked to Qin's right side, and carefully stretched out her fingers to probe Qin's right breathing. Fortunately, although the breathing is weak, it is still there.
Chu Ying said tiredly: "Except for Poria cocos, there is a cardamom next to the princess who is quite intimate, Cardamom, come here." ”
Cardamom stood up from the crowd in a voice, she was usually silent and silent, and she was not as smart and capable as Poria Cocos, because she was married to the Three Princes Mansion by Wuchi Zhixian County like Poria Cocos, so the princess did not treat her lightly, and gave her relatively easy work.
But at this moment, Cardamom is the only maid who knows her roots. Hatsuzakura asked, "How many years have you been with the princess?" ”
Cardamom said, "If you think about it, it's been thirteen years. ”
Hatsuzakura said: "Do Wuchi's adoptive parents still contact the princess often? ”
Cardamom bit her lip, and when she thought of the face of the Wuchi family, Cardamom couldn't control herself from being angry, those people! Ask for some money or let Qin You make a living for any child in the family who is not angry, the princess is not a cold person, so it is regarded as repaying the grace of parenting, but as time goes by, Wuchi is more and more dependent on the princess, and the adoptive parents still have the meaning of relying on the old and selling the old.
The princess is not in good health, and these two fathers and mothers, who are not close at all, have repeatedly sent people to send some folk prescriptions for asking for children, and there are some ridiculous prescriptions for burning ashes of old sow dung in them.
Forget about sending the prescription for the child, the old lady in Wuchi often comes to sit and asks, asking Qin You to hold a child in her clan to raise, and keep saying that this is for Qin You's good.
Wuchi's "adoptive mother" always intentionally or unintentionally whispered in front of Qin You, a woman who has no heirs will be abandoned by her husband, you should quickly take the prescription I asked for you, give birth to a boy and half a girl, or take a child from your own family to raise, no matter how bad it is, select a few more women of the right age from the family to introduce them to the three kings, if you can't give birth to yourself, you should let other women give birth.
Every word seems to contain the concern and teachings for this adopted daughter, but in fact, every word is for the sake of his family.
This kind of "earnest teaching" lasted for many years, until the three kings became angry, saying that even if Qin You couldn't give birth to a child in his life, he would treat it as a treasure, and the people of Wuchi dispelled this idea.
Cardamom said: "In the past two years, there has been less movement. However, the slave maid still said more, Wuchi's adoptive mother is a difficult character, and the princess's biggest headache is to entertain her. ”
Chu Sakura roughly guessed that the servants in the house were all disdainful when they mentioned this "in-law", it seems that they have been playing the autumn wind here, thinking of the situation of Qin You, Chu Sakura sighed in a low voice.
I'm afraid that Qin Right won't be able to hold up today, and when ordinary people are dying, Zuo just wants to see the closest person, but in addition to the three kings, who else in the world is worth her attention to?
Over there in Wuchi, even if someone comes, I'm afraid they will only use this to ask for money and things, and the people on the right side of the Qin are still hot, I'm afraid she doesn't want to see this situation.
"Then the princess doesn't have a relative in Wuchi who can speak?" Hatsuzakura asked.
Cardamom thought for a moment and said, "There is one." Because our princess has been adopted as an adopted daughter, that person should be counted as the princess's cousin in terms of generation. surnamed Pei, slightly younger than the princess, is now doing a small business in Wuchi, selling tofu. ”
"Credible?" Hatsuzakura asked.
Cardamom said: "Believe it or not, it depends on Princess Sakura, Cousin Pei is loyal and honest, when the princess planted flowers and sold flowers in the past, he came to transport soil and move flowers and fertilize, when the princess got married, Cousin Pei hid in the house alone and cried, and the princess coaxed for a while before stopping. ”
The love of youth is often the most simple, not mixed with any interests.
According to Dongyi's customs, although the husband's family has to take the entire responsibility for a woman's life and death, someone from the mother's family must also come forward, otherwise, according to Dongyi, without this guide, this woman will not be able to find a way to recognize her mother's relatives.
Besides, Qin You has also had some private belongings over the years, if it is directly handed over to the adoptive father and adoptive mother, I am afraid that it will go astray, it is better to find a reliable mother's family, call a few family elders to testify, donate this silver to the family school, open lectures for the school-age children in the clan for free, and support those potential children who can't afford to read, it is better than squandering and wasting it for others.
If this Cousin Pei can come, it would be the best, as soon as he takes over and arranges it properly, the family will not have any opinions, then the adoptive parents have nothing to say, after all, everyone wants to share this cup of "soup" equally, and donating it to the school is the best way.
Chu Ying has her own plans, in the customs of Dongyi, although people enter the mausoleum of the husband's family, the woman's maiden family must also prepare a stele, but this stele can only be owned by the daughter-in-law. Chu Ying's donation to the school is just to let Qinyou, the wandering adopted daughter, also occupy a monument in her mother's house more justifiably.
"It's getting late, and it's time to be in a hurry. Is it important, cardamom you...... Take the palace token, go to Wuchi to pick up Cousin Pei, and don't reveal the news all the way. Hatsu Sakura said.
"But Princess Sakura, I don't know how to ride a horse!" Cardamom is just a little maid, how can she ride a horse if she doesn't go out of the door?
Hatsu Sakura said angrily: "It's all my fault, a few days ago, I saw that the roof of the carriage did not have a layer of waterproof oiled paper, and I took it all to the outskirts of the city to make up for it." ”
This ...... Cardamom can't even ride in a carriage.
"I will! I can ride a horse! Cardamom, I'll take you! Hatsu Tao felt that she could finally come in handy.
"Your leg ......" Hatsu Sakura is still hesitating, Hatsu Peach's equestrian skills were personally taught by the general when he was alive, Hatsu Sakura does not doubt her skills, but Hatsu Peach's leg has been injured, can she still ride a horse?
"Yes, I just can't dance, sister, you know that I practice the most often Hu Xuan dance, to straighten the instep, the sensitivity of the joints is relatively high, so after breaking the leg, I can't dance anymore. As long as you don't dance on the horse, you can still ride a horse. Hatsumomo wanted to tell a joke to ease the tension.
Hatsuzakura smiled reluctantly: "I'm still poor." Go and go back quickly, the city gate will be closed when it's too late, and you won't be able to go anywhere. ”
Chu Tao said: "I have the token of the palace, what are you afraid of." Sister, why are you in such a hurry today, although Sister Princess is weak, but as the Imperial Doctor said, Sister Princess is an old problem, why does Sister suddenly alarm so many people, and she has to invite Cousin Pei over today? ”
Hatsu Sakura let out a long sigh and lowered her head to stroke her abdomen: "The princess is not just hemoptysis, I saw her with my own eyes...... Spit up two mouthfuls of blood. The doctor said that the princess was tired, palpitations and shortness of breath, her tongue was pale and pale, and her pulse was weak, so she was afraid that she would ...... I'm afraid ......"
"The prince is not in the mansion, if I don't do a good job in a small thing, he will be rumored in the future, I am walking on thin ice, I have to plan for the worst, everything must be thoughtful."
"It's also that I didn't take good care of her...... "Hatsuzakura said and cried as she spoke.
Chu Tao said: "The princess's sister Jiren has her own natural appearance, she will definitely be able to survive this catastrophe, sister, don't cry, the whole palace is relying on you, sister must cheer up." I'll go with Cardamom to Wuchi. ”
"I hope I'm just busy working for nothing today, and the princess will wake up in a while." Hatsu Sakura said.
Cardamom had never looked at Miss Jiang Jiasan so closely, only to see that her pink face was embedded with two big round eyes that seemed to be able to speak, and her straight and small and delicate nose brought a bit of coldness to this delicate goose egg face, which was suffocatingly beautiful.
What kind of fairy is this! Cardamom only glanced at Hatsumomo and lowered her head, as if to look at her more would be to blaspheme her.
The fairy trotted up to the horse, stepped on the stool, took the horse's back, sat down on the horse's back with a diagonal straddle, and said to Cardamom, "Will you come up?" Can't come up and I'll pull you. ”
How can you trouble the fairy to help you get on the horse? Cardamom didn't dare, so she had an idea and set up another stool on top of the original stool, so that she could step on it and get on the horse.
It's so high! Cardamom didn't dare to look down, this was the first time in her life to get on the horse, Chu Tao said: "I remember the way out of Jinling City, I don't know how to go out of the city, then you have to guide the way behind, sit firm, I will ride the horse fast, if you are afraid, hold my waist." ”
Can you hug a fairy's waist too? Cardamom didn't dare even more. However, when the horse behind was riding faster and faster, Cardamom still unconsciously hugged Chu Tao's waist, and then found ...... The fairy's waist is so soft, and there is a lot of flesh on her waist......
Hatsumoto passed by the Mochizuki Tower and the Mochizuki Bridge, and saw only a few begging children on the street, and two porters drove five donkeys carrying charcoal, walking towards this side. It's quite a bit of a withering, completely different from the excitement of the past.
In the past, the Moon Tower was a piece, the carved cars were stationed in the Heavenly Street, the BMW was racing on the Royal Road, the golden green was shining in the sun, and Luo Qi was fragrant. The new voice laughed at Liu Mo Huaqu, and tuned the strings according to the orchestra in the teahouse restaurant. How can it be so abnormal today?
Chu Tao didn't have time to think about it, and drove to the city gate quickly, the houses on both sides were lined up, tea shops, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses, etc. were lined up in turn, but the silk satin, jewelry and spices, and incense paper horses that would be put out on weekdays were all taken back, and the last time I saw a large number of shops closed was in Xinyang, everyone closed the shops to see the beheading, which was really strange.
Along the way, I only saw the dazzling red sun gradually sinking in the west, the setting sun gilded the upturned eaves and ridges of the street with a soft orange light, the crickets chirping rhythmically, the waterwheels singing in a clatter, and even the horse's hooves beating on the bluestone slabs, which made people feel particularly beautiful. If it weren't for the hurry, Hatsu Tao really wanted to stop and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the sunset.
Cardamom also felt strange, although she didn't go out often, she had also heard of the prosperity of Jinling City, which was at the feet of the Son of Heaven after all. "Miss Jiang, why is it not dark yet, and there are so few people on the street?" Cardamom asked, wondering in her heart.
Chu Tao also felt strange, and replied while holding a horse: "I think about it, we are going out of the south gate, and the hunting ground is also from the south gate, is it possible that the emperor is coming back today?" That shouldn't be, why don't you see the Royal Forbidden Army guarding both sides of the street? ”
"Your Majesty? Forbidden Army? This frightened Cardamom: "Miss Jiang, we won't meet the emperor, right?" ”
"It's just right to meet it, I'll go to the emperor to complain and tell him that the crown princess has a bad moral, and it doesn't hurt for the prince to restrain him!" Hatsu Tao said.
In the distance, Chu Tao had already seen the city gate, but fortunately, the city gate had not been closed. But on the periphery of the city gate, a group of people in armor were pressing on something, one by one.
The uneasiness in Chu Tao's heart became stronger and stronger, and she had a hunch that this time would not be too smooth.
