Chapter 436: Visiting the Sick
As soon as she heard the words "Miss Lan", Grandma Qiu Er raised her head as if she was reflexive.
She then remembered that two days ago, Zhao Yuling from Enguo's family handed a post to their family Miaomiao, saying that it had been snowing heavily for many days and she was bored at home, so she wanted to come to her door to play.
At that time, Qiu Er's grandmother was quite happy, although this Zhao Yuling was the concubine of the Enguo family, but she couldn't stand that she was the most favored daughter under the knees of the Enguo Gongzi, and she was the most favored aunt, don't look at it as a concubine, she has always been a few points better than the concubine, and even Qiu Er's grandmother heard that even the concubine of the Duke of Enguo's deceased main room has to retreat in front of this concubine Zhao Yuling.
It can be seen that Zhao Yuling's momentum is flourishing.
Although the other party is a concubine, Qiu Er's grandmother feels that her daughter's play with her is a bit cheap, but Qiu Er's grandmother thought about it, although she is a concubine, she is still very popular with her family. If she is arrogant and domineering, then how can she be liked by so many people at home?
Just look at their family. Although she was born in the countryside and is the daughter of a businessman, she can't pick out the slightest bit of her character, appearance or life, how can such a girl be regarded simply by her background?
Grandma Qiu Er was relieved when she thought about it, and agreed to this matter on the spot.
Although Ruan Zhilan felt that she was not very familiar with Zhao Yuling, there was one thing on Zhao Yuling's post that was very right to her mind - after so many days of heavy snow, she was tired of staying at home, no matter who it was, even if she came to talk to her.
So Ruan Zhilan did not object at that time.
But in the past two days, as soon as she was busy, Grandma Qiu Er left this matter behind.
Now that this mother-in-law has reported it, Grandma Qiu Er remembered this incident.
"So early?" Ruan Jifeng was still there, a little surprised.
The mother-in-law who passed the word remembered the heavy silver ingots that the maid in Zhao Yuling had quietly stuffed into her hands before, as well as those few whispers: "Our young lady knows that it is unseemly to come so early, but it is really boring at home, so it is better to come over early to accompany Miss Lan." I also hope that Mama will say a few kind words for my master in front of your master's family, and don't let your master think that my young lady is unruly. ”
When the mother-in-law raised her head, she was already smiling: "Oh, second grandmother, that's not what I said." It's not too early, and many people in Beijing have already had breakfast. Doesn't Miss Ling come over so early just to show the importance we attach to Miss Jialan? …… Otherwise, on such a cold day, who wouldn't want to stay under the covers for a while...... This is our Miss Lan, who is beautiful in life, and her temperament is also first-class and charming......"
The mother-in-law chattered and praised Ruan Zhilan, but Grandma Qiu Er wanted to cry when she heard it.
yes, she's wonderful, what a kid that's that.
Ruan Jifeng didn't look good, and seeing that he had just coaxed his mother, this mother-in-law made his mother cry again...... There's really nothing to say.
Ruan Jifeng couldn't help but sigh.
The worst part is not this, the worst part is that his sister is not at home at all!
"Mama, you go back and talk to that ......" Ruan Jifeng paused, and couldn't remember the name of the visiting girl.
The mother-in-law reminded her in a timely manner, "Miss Ling? ”
"Oh, yes, that's her." Ruan Jifeng was not embarrassed at all, he nodded, "Mama went back and told Miss Ling, just say that my sister has been suffering from cold and physical strength in recent days, and she can't entertain today, and I also ask Miss Ling not to be angry, and she will definitely come to apologize another day." ”
The mother-in-law hesitated slightly.
However, she also knew that Miss Lan had indeed been in trouble these days, and she had also bumped into Miss Lan's maid starry eyes decocting medicine in the small kitchen once.
It seems that this ingot of silver will not be obtained...... The mother-in-law was very heartbroken, but compared to the orders of the master's family, she had not yet reached the point of ignoring the orders of the master's family for the sake of ingots and silver.
After the mother-in-law figured it out, she responded sharply and turned to leave.
After the mother-in-law left, there was silence in the room for a while.
After a while, Grandma Qiu Er said with a crying voice: "This time I let the wind fool me...... And what about next time? The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so you can't let Miaomiao stay sick, right? …… She is now at the age of kissing, if she keeps being sick, will it make those ladies feel that she is not in good health, and she is not willing to marry her and let her be a daughter-in-law? ……”
Grandma Qiu Er was crying and chattering.
"Enough!" Second Young Master Ruan slammed the table, he rarely spoke loudly to his wife, and now it was the first time, he was really in a depressed mood, "Miaomiao will come back first, and then you want to tell Miaomiao about your relatives in the future!" Now Miaomiao hasn't come back yet, where did she come from! ”
These words really scared Grandma Qiuer, she was already extremely uncomfortable in her heart, and she just thought so far away, just to distract the panic in her heart.
Second Young Master Ruan's words were like a fuse, igniting the extremely deep burial * in Grandma Qiu's heart.
Grandma Qiu Er suddenly cried uncontrollably: "You say, do you think Miaomiao will be ......?"
She didn't go on.
But I know what she means.
For a while, the atmosphere in the room was dull and a little breathless.
I don't know how long it took, but the mother-in-law ran back again, and she knelt down for Grandma Qiu Er.
Grandma Qiuer's tears have dried up, and she doesn't care about the problem of gaffes in front of her subordinates. She looked at the woman with a wooden face.
The woman was a little frightened and didn't dare to look up, for fear of seeing the scene of the master's gaffe and being hated by the master, so she would wear small shoes later.
"Master, Miss Ling said," the mother-in-law hung her head honestly, and her voice replied clearly and quickly, "Since Miss Lan is sick, she should come over to see her." If others knew that her friend was sick and she left without even looking at her, then everyone in Beijing would definitely regard her as a villain who sought advantage and avoided harm. ”
Grandma Qiu Er seemed to be pulled back to her soul by this mother-in-law's words.
She stared at the woman with a pair of eyes.
but my heart was like a mess.
What to do?
What to do?
Can't let people find out that Miao Miao is not in the house!
"If you don't see it, you don't see it!" Ruan Jifeng opened his mouth, and said with a little lust, "You told Miss Na Ling that Miaomiao also regarded her as a friend, if you disregarded the safety of your friend and passed the illness to your friend, then how do the people in the capital think of Miaomiao?" When Miaomiao's health is better another day, I will come to apologize in person! ”
The mother-in-law was a little embarrassed.
However, not long after, another subordinate came from behind, and came in in panic to reply: "Second grandma, a girl who claims to be Miss Ling is coming here!" ”
Grandma Qiu Er lost her voice and said, "Didn't you say that you wouldn't let her come!" ”
In a hurry, Grandma Qiu's voice was a little sharp.
The next person was even more panicked, and she muttered, "Yes, it was Miss An from Huaishui Bofu who brought Miss Ling over." The two young ladies met at the gate of the house, and Miss An said that Miss Ling was very moved by this situation of disregarding her own safety, so she handed a post to the old lady, and asked the old lady if she wanted to bring a friend, and the old lady allowed her to come in. ”
It's this An Ruyi again!
Grandma Qiu Er patted the table hatefully and stood up.
But because she hadn't slept all night and was physically and mentally exhausted, Grandma Qiu Er got up suddenly, and she almost fainted like a whirlwind, which frightened several maids and Ruan Jifeng and hurriedly supported Grandma Qiu Er.
"Did...... Missing! Grandma Qiu Er was groggy, but she still remembered these words, she tightly pulled Ruan Jifeng's sleeve and spit out these words from her teeth.
Ruan Jifeng nodded with a heartbeat.
Second Young Master Ruan picked up Second Grandma Qiu, and he glanced at his eldest son: "I'll leave it to you." So he hugged Grandma Qiu Er and sent Grandma Qiu Er into the room to rest,
Ruan Jifeng took a deep breath and walked out of the banquet hall.
Sure enough, from a distance, he watched, there were two young lady-like figures, followed by a few maids, and Yingying Yanyan was walking towards his sister's small courtyard.
Ruan Jifeng clenched his fists, stepped forward quickly, and shouted: "Miss An, stay!" ”
An Ruyi was walking forward with Zhao Yuling talking and laughing, when he suddenly heard the young man's voice and stopped.
An Ruyi turned around, and when she saw that it was Ruan Jifeng, she had a bottom in her heart.
She pulled Zhao Yuling behind her and preemptively said, "Feng'er, why are you so reckless?!" You're not a seven- or eight-year-old anymore. Men and women are seven years old at different seats, what should you do if you are so reckless and shouting at me to stay, scaring the bell? ”
Ruan Jifeng stopped.
Zhao Yuling was behind An Ruyi and said with a smile: "Yi'er, you are just too worried about me...... Besides, I came to someone's house as a guest, and when I met the host's house, how can I say that the host's house was reckless? ”
Zhao Yuling spoke in a very nice voice, like a wind chime being gently blown in the wind.
An Ruyi stomped his feet and said angrily: "Ling'er, you are just too good at talking." ”
She said in a tone that was very familiar with Ruan Jifeng: "Ling'er, Feng'er actually doesn't have bad intentions, he is just a little reckless, just don't blame him." He's Miaomiao's older brother, have you seen him before? ”
Zhao Yuling smiled and shook her head.
Ruan Jifeng took a deep breath, no matter how the two little girls in front of him gagged, and said, "The girl is Miss Ling'er, right?" …… I'm really sorry, my sister is infected with the wind cold, it will be too good, she is worried about your safety, let me come and tell you, you don't need to go to see her, she has your heart, but if you are infected with the wind cold, then her conscience will not be at ease, and it will not be good for her recovery...... I think that since Miss Ling'er cares about my sister so much, she must want to see her get better soon, right? ”
Ruan Jifeng said a lot of things, and then looked at Zhao Yuling, as if she didn't understand Ruan Jifeng's words, she only said with emotion: "Miaomiao is so considerate to me, I must go to visit the patient." ”
