Xu Yao was holding a tray in her hand, and a small bowl was placed on the tray, which was about the decoction that the old lady was going to drink, and it was steaming hot. As soon as Xu Yao entered the room and raised her eyes to see Xu Jiayi, she was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and the expression on her face was a little stiff, "My cousin-in-law is also ......."

"Hmm." Xu Jiayi bowed slightly, listening to the "cousin-in-law" in Xu Yao's mouth, which made her a little stunned, and her eyelids jumped. Although she and this cousin have the same surname, they are not close. Usually I only meet in Rongyang Hall and say a few words, and I don't have any friendship in private.

It's just that she has a lot of affection for Chu Changfeng, and she has always refused to admit that she is her cousin-in-law, and she calls herself "Sister Jiayi", why did she change her name today. Although Xu Jiayi was stunned, she had already come back to her senses after a moment, and then turned to look at Old Lady Chu, "Mother, I'll help you up first." ”

Xu Yao put the tray on the bedside table on the side, took the soup bowl and walked over, and Xu Jiayi had already helped Mrs. Chu sit up at that time. Xu Yao originally wanted to feed Mrs. Chu medicine with her own hands, but who knew that Mrs. Chu raised her eyes and glanced at her, and stretched out her hand, "Give me the bowl." ”

You can drink it all in one sip, and it also saves you the pain of drinking one bite at a time.

"This medicine is still a little hot, auntie, be careful when you drink it, don't burn it." The decoction has a medicinal effect when it is hot, and it does not work when it is cold. So as soon as the decoction was boiled, Xu Yao brought it over.

Old Mrs. Chu took the medicine bowl, frowned and glanced at the black medicine, rubbed the rock wall of the soup bowl with her hand to test the temperature, and felt that it was almost there, so she drank the medicine in the bowl with bated breath, and then handed the soup bowl back with a frown, and Xu Yao took it easily.

Xu Jiayi hurriedly handed over a glass of warm water, and Mrs. Chu took two sips and spit it out after taking two sips in her mouth, and then picked a piece of candied fruit and put it in her mouth, only then did she feel that the bitterness in her mouth was diluted.

After Mrs. Chu drank the medicine, she pulled Xu Yao and Xu Jiayi to say a few words, in fact, more often than not, it was Mrs. Chu who pulled Xu Yao to speak, but she put Xu Jiayi aside, and only occasionally asked her a few words.

After Mrs. Chu fell ill, she was very moved when she saw Xu Yao's filial piety and respectful service by her side. Holding Xu Yao's hand and sighing, he doesn't have a daughter, but fortunately, with such a caring niece as her, he has no regrets in life.

After talking for a while, Old Lady Chu felt that the effect of the medicine had come up, and her eyelids were all together, and she was also angry when she spoke. Xu Yao saw that she hurriedly helped Mrs. Chu to lie down, and after carefully covering the brocade quilt for her, she saw that Mrs. Chu had fallen asleep. Xu Yao raised her hand to test the temperature on her forehead, and was relieved to see that there was no more fever.

Xu Jiayi and Xu Yao exited the house together, and after the maid in the back closed the door, Xu Jiayi and the two of them looked at each other, and no one spoke first.

After waiting for a while, after all, it was Xu Yao who moved first and saluted Xu Jiayifu, "I still have to stay here to serve my aunt, so I won't send my cousin-in-law." The road is slippery, and my cousin walks slowly. ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Jiayi to speak, she led Mama Lin behind her to the wing room next to Rongyang Hall to rest. After Cuiyun saw Xu Yao walking away, she stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Madam, shall we go back?" ”

"Let's go back." Xu Jiayi turned her head sideways and glanced at the direction of the house, and led everyone back to Fengyuan.

Her attitude has also been put out, and she will never let people gossip.

Xu Yao sat and rested in the wing room of Rongyang Hall for a while, and about an hour later, a maid came to report that the old lady had woken up, and she went into the house again to wait.

"Auntie, do you feel anything uncomfortable? Does your head still hurt? ”

"It's much better, it's hard for you to guard me." When Mrs. Chu saw Xu Yao coming in, she took her hand and let her sit on the edge of the bed, and said with a smile with crooked eyebrows, "It is said that raising children to prevent old age, I think it is better to raise a daughter." The daughter is the intimate little padded jacket, much more careful than those gentlemen. ”

"Originally, I thought that I could match you with Changfeng, but now that he has married a wife, I am reluctant to let you be a concubine, so I can only rest this thought." Old Lady Chu said in a low voice, "Yaoyao, I have also seen a few families for you, among them, I think Su Yunlin, the eldest son of the Su family, is a good one, in terms of family background, character, and talent, they are all worthy of you." But the most important thing depends on what you mean......"

"Auntie, Yaoyao has already said that I don't want to get married."

"Look, it's, isn't it? If you think that Su Yunlin is not good, my aunt will find other people for you. ”

"That's not what I meant......"

Old Mrs. Chu's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Then you think this Su Yunlin is good?" ”

"I ......"

"Look at my old woman, you haven't seen this person yet, and you can only know about him from the mouths of others, how can you make an evaluation." Old Mrs. Chu patted her head and spoke, "I'll invite him and Mrs. Su to the house another day, and you'll know what happened to this person when you see it." ”

Xu Yao saw that she couldn't resist Mrs. Chu, and she couldn't bear to let her be unsatisfactory in her illness, so she didn't explain again. When Mrs. Chu saw that she didn't speak, she acquiesced, and she was happy in her heart, and unconsciously talked about another matter.

"Your cousin has been married for more than half a year, and he stays in the barracks all day and doesn't return home, when will Master Hou and I be able to hold our grandson!" Old Lady Chu was in a hurry, and when she said this, her brows were so furrowed that she could kill a mosquito.

Although he understood that Chu Changfeng did not deliberately hide in the barracks and not go home, it was also a fact that he stayed in the barracks all day!

Xu Yao looked at Old Lady Chu and frowned, even though her heart hurt badly, she could only press it down, and said with a stiff face and comforting her, "Auntie, cousin, this is also for the peace of the border pass, and if you want to blame it, you can only blame those barbarians for going too far." However, my cousin is strong in martial arts, and he is like a god in his soldiers, so he will definitely beat them to the ground, and he will earn another life for your aunt. ”

Sure enough, after listening to Xu Yao's words, Old Lady Chu couldn't help laughing, and whispered in disgust, "You kid, you are used to saying good things to coax me." ”

She married into the Marquis of Anping's mansion, and with the light of the marquis Chu Minglei, she is now the lady of the third grade. Even if his son is sensible, he should earn his daughter-in-law's life. But listening to Xu Yao say this, I was still happy in my heart.

Xu Jiayi felt groggy and unconscious when she got up that day, and even after a cold wind blew by the window, she didn't wake up much, but became more and more dizzy.

Cuiyun looked at Xu Jiayi's face and frowned, "Madam, why are you so pale, are you sick?" ”

"Maybe, Cuiyun, you let the kitchen boil ginger soup, everyone drink some precautions, don't all get sick." Xu Jiayi raised her hand and rubbed her temples, said in a dumb voice, and asked again at the end, "Mama Hua is better?" ”

Mama Hua also fell ill two days ago, and she was afraid that she would give Xu Jiayi too much of her illness, so she didn't go to Xu Jiayi for the past two days. Xu Jiayi found out that she hadn't seen Mama Hua all day and asked about it, only to know that Mama Hua was also sick.

This wind and cold came cold, and several people in the Anping Marquis Mansion have fallen ill in the past few days. Old Lady Chu is not the first, nor is she the last.

"Madam, don't worry, Mama Hua is already well, but I'm afraid that the illness on my body hasn't disappeared, and now I'm doing things outside, and I said that I will come back to you in two days to serve." Cuiyun instructed the girl to go to the kitchen to explain how to boil the ginger soup, she would get it later, and replied after listening to Xu Jiayi's words.

"Let her stop working, so that she can rest in her room."

"Madame, you don't know Mama Hua's temperament yet, even Madame, you understand her and let her rest, and she can't rest." Yuan Xiang jokingly brought a basin of hot water from outside, planning to let Xu Jiayi soak her feet, warm from her feet, and warm her body after soaking her feet in hot water.

After soaking her feet in hot water, Xu Jiayi still felt uncomfortable, so she asked Yuan Xiang to go to Rongyang Hall to say goodbye, and she won't go to Rongyang Hall to say goodbye today.

drank a bowl of ginger soup and slept under the quilt. When she woke up, her clothes were wet, and after sweating, Xu Jiayi felt much better. After Xu Jiayi changed into dry clothes, Xu Jiayi felt more comfortable.

Cuiyun had already changed the bed, Xu Jiayi had just sat on the edge of the bed and was about to lie down again, when she heard the sound of a maid saluting outside, and after listening carefully, she found that it was Xu Yao who came over, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

"Cousin, it's great that you're okay. Otherwise, when my cousin comes back, I won't be able to explain it to him! As soon as Xu Yao entered the room and saw that Xu Jiayi was in a very good mental state, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned for a moment, before she stepped forward and said affectionately, "Aunt heard that you are sick, so she specially asked me to come and have a look." ”

"Sister Lao Yaoyao is missing." Xu Jiayi lowered her eyes and played with the handkerchief in her hand, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and she replied in a voice, "It's just that my body is not well yet, Sister Yaoyao is still far away from me, don't be sick." ”

While speaking, Xu Jiayi also covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed lightly.

Xu Yao's attitude is really a little abnormal, as if she is a pair of good sisters.

However, if things go wrong, there must be demons.

It's just that she doesn't know what Xu Yao wants to do.

Xu Yao, who originally wanted to get closer, couldn't help but pause when she saw this scene, but she didn't go any further, pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Then cousin, take care of yourself, you don't have to worry about your aunt's side, I'm guarding you." ”

"It's hard work Sister Yaoyao......"

Xu Yao waved her hand, "It's not hard, it's all what should be done." ”
