Chapter 156: Lost something
Zeng Rong spent the first few days from the first day of the Lunar New Year to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and took care of Qin Chuxue with Xiaocui.
Under the careful care of the two of them, Qin Chuxue's symptoms have been reduced a lot, she no longer has a fever, and the bruises and swelling on her knees are much better, but the cough part, Zeng Rong still has no good solution, it is said to be a stubborn disease, and it usually takes half a month or even a month or two to heal.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after dinner, Zeng Rong proposed to move back, because she had to go to work early the next morning, and the queen mother's regular clothes must be completed in early March, and must be sent to the Tai to try on.
"Go ahead, take a good rest when you go back, I've worked hard for you in the past few days, and I can pick up this life this time thanks to you, I understand." Qin Chuxue said softly, looking at Zeng Rong's gaze with a bit of mother's kindness and comfort.
"Auntie, don't say that, I haven't done anything, on the contrary, my aunt has taught me a lot of things in the past few days." Zeng Rong crawled over and grabbed her arm and leaned in, pretending to be a child.
Although she was sick, Qin Chuxue didn't want to lie down all the time, but it was difficult to pass the time while sitting, so she ordered Xiaocui to find out her Go and began to teach Zeng Rong to play chess, and also taught Zeng Rong arithmetic, saying that it was for her to learn to take care of her money, and she might be able to use it one day, if it wasn't for her body being too close to sitting for a long time, she still wanted to teach Zeng Rong to play the piano.
It can be seen that she should have accepted Zeng Rong and wanted to teach Zeng Rong what she knew and learned, that is to say, she planned to use Zeng Rong, as for how to enable it, she didn't say, and Zeng Rong didn't ask.
"What is that little thing, when I'm ready, and when you're done with this time, you move back to live, and I'll teach you well in the future." Qin Chuxue stroked Zeng Rong's face and said.
"Done." Zeng Rong rubbed it in her palm.
Before going out, Zeng Rong motioned to Xiaocui to send her, standing at the gate of the courtyard, Zeng Rong took out twenty taels of silver tickets to Xiaocui, asked her to invite a doctor tomorrow, and also asked her to buy Qin Chuxue some nourishing food to replenish her body.
Xiaocui was about to push back, Zeng Rong held her down, "Don't worry, it's easier for me to earn silver than you, I paint some tricks for the previous embroidery workshop every month and sell it to them, which can be regarded as making up for the income I lost when I entered the palace, and I got a hundred taels of silver in those two months." ”
Xiao Cui happily took the silver ticket when she heard this, but she didn't forget to ask, "What did my aunt say when she asked?" ”
"Let's just say that there is something left, or that I found you a little eunuch in the dining room, and the things are cheaper. Also, don't forget to give her more honey water and lily soup, because she is always coughing like this for fear of lung fever. Zeng Rong admonished.
Seeing that Zeng Rong was so meticulous, Xiao Cui suddenly thought of something, raised her head and asked, "You, you haven't come to see your aunt recently?" ”
Zeng Rong smiled, "I'm afraid I'll have to rush to work sooner or later, if I can arrange it, I will definitely come." ”
In fact, Zeng Rong really didn't plan to go in and out of Qin Chuxue's house too often, she was afraid of causing trouble to herself.
Whether it's selfish or cowardly, in short, in the current state, she doesn't want to attract the attention of the queen and the imperial concubine.
With her understanding of the imperial concubine, if she knew that she was close to Qin Chuxue, she was afraid that she would not let her go.
Xiaocui had seen Zeng Rong's regular clothes for the queen before, so she easily accepted Zeng Rong's statement this time, and said that she would continue to send meals to her, but Zeng Rong refused.
There was Amei to help run errands before, but now there is only one Xiaocui left, and Qin Chuxue is that symptom again, where can I leave people around?
Back in the dormitory, when everyone saw Zeng Rong, they wanted to ask where she had been in the past few days, but Zeng Rong didn't hide it from everyone, saying that Qin Chuxue was sick, and she went to serve for a few days, which was regarded as a reward for her care for her.
Everyone knows that Zeng Rong was taken back by Qin Chuxue to take care of him when he was seriously ill, so Zeng Rong's move is also reasonable, no one doubts anything, that is, someone questioned Lu He a few words, after all, Lu He also went to Qin Chuxue's house with Zeng Rong to recuperate, why didn't he go with him this time.
Zeng Rong heard that these people knew that she and Lu He were not close, so they asked these words, obviously wanting to see the excitement, so they smiled faintly and were just about to speak, but they didn't expect Hongling to rush to say: "Okay, the patient also needs to be quiet, and it is not conducive to the patient's recuperation if there are more people who go, this time Ah Rong will go, and next time let Lu He go." ”
"Bah, bah, the Great New Year, you are cursing your aunt's illness, there is no next time." Zeng Rong took two sips, but she wasn't really angry, she knew that Hongling had made a mistake.
No, after listening to Zeng Rong's words, Hongling also hurriedly took two sips and patted his mouth, "Damn it, damn it, what I said is definitely not working." ”
"Ah Rong, has Ah Mei come to you these days?" Dafen asked, diverting the conversation.
"No, I still want to ask you if she's here." Zeng Rong really misses her.
There has been no news for more than ten days, and something like that has happened in the Cining Palace, how can you not be worried?
"Alas, I'm still waiting for her to come and ask what happened in Cining Palace that night." Someone asked.
"Didn't I tell you, did someone run away, it is said that he is still a prince." Dafen said in a low voice.
"The Prince?" Zeng Rong was taken aback.
Could it be that that person is really the son of the first queen?
"You heard it from a few turns, you can't count." Someone retorted.
Zeng Rong saw that they were arguing again, and silently returned to her bed, these days on Qin Chuxue's side, she didn't think about this problem, but Qin Chuxue and Xiaocui didn't mention it, and she couldn't ask.
That night, Zeng Rong didn't sleep too well, on the one hand, he was on his mind, and on the other hand, he was noisy. The girls in the same room have been idle for five days, and there is nothing to entertain, except for sleeping during the day, they are running around to find out some harem secrets or something, and they are willing to get together at night to communicate.
In their opinion, Zeng Rong went in and out of Qin Si's house every day, and he must have known a lot of inside stories, but Zeng Rong refused to say anything, some people were not happy, Zeng Rong didn't bother to explain, but he didn't join their conversation anymore.
The next morning, Zeng Rong was the first to get up, and after some washing, she entered the workshop alone, but when she opened her cabinet to get something, she suddenly found that the bundle of gold leaf thread was missing.
Zeng Rong was immediately taken aback, no matter how much the bundle of gold leaf thread was, she couldn't bear the responsibility of losing the items needed for the Queen Mother's regular clothes.
Who could be having trouble with her? Doesn't this person know that if she is caught, the consequences will be equally unbearable.
Zeng Rong didn't dare to delay, so he had to hurriedly find Liu Chunmiao.
