Chapter Twenty-Three: Avoiding the Hundred Days Feast

Everyone was stunned, and immediately fell into silence, Hua Jintang relieved himself for a long time, and hurriedly hugged Jiao Niang, feeling very distressed, "You kid, why are you so stupid." ”

Jiao Niang looked at him painfully, with tears in her eyes, she tugged at the corner of her father's clothes, angry as a thread, "She is my own sister, blood is connected, I watched her beaten, as if she was beaten on my own." Father, you have beaten and punished, so don't blame the second sister anymore, and don't punish her anymore. ”

As soon as the words fell, she softly planted on Hua Jintang's shoulder and fainted.

"Jiao Niang, Jiao Niang ......"

......

This board Hua Jintang is a dead hand, there are two obvious purple marks on Jiao Niang's back, bruised, the edges are yellow, and the deeper the color becomes.

Shui Xiang carefully rubbed the medicine on her, Jiao Niang gritted her teeth tightly, and only snorted when she was in pain, Qing Huan stood on the side of the bed with the ointment and shed tears.

"Girl, if you are in pain, call it out, don't hold it back, what if you hold back your internal injuries?"

Jiao Niang smiled unconsciously, glanced sideways at Qing Huan, and pretended to be relaxed: "Silly girl, I haven't heard that you can still hold back internal injuries, don't cry, I don't hurt, looking at you like this, I thought you were injured." ”

"I'm a distressed girl. Qing Huan wiped the corners of her eyes and said unevenly: "The girl said I was stupid, I think the girl was stupid." The master wants to punish the second girl, why is the girl so kind to help her block, she has suffered, but she doesn't appreciate it over there, how many days have it been, and I haven't looked at it. ”

Shui Xiang sneered, "What if you come, looking at that hypocritical face, it's even more disgusting." ”

After saying this, he consciously lost his words again, pursed the corners of his mouth, and continued to give Jiao Niang medicine.

Qing Huan bent down, looked at Jiao Niang at eye level, and said, "Girl, let's talk about it, if there is such a thing in the future, you have to stay away." This time, the master hit the board, and next time he may use a mace, then if you are stupid enough to block it, you will be over immediately. ”

Shui Xiang raised her head, slapped her on the head, and said angrily, "What are you talking about, this is an unlucky word." ”

Qing Huan hurriedly spat three mouthfuls on the ground, "I just wronged the girl, I was beaten by that person, and I had to be beaten for her, how can there be such a thing, girl, what do you say you are trying to do?"

Hearing this, Jiao Niang's long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings.

At this moment, Li's mother lifted the curtain and entered the house, and several people stopped talking.

"Today is a big day, the 100-day gift of Sister Yu of our side concubine in Ruiwang's Mansion invited us to celebrate together, the time is about the same, the eldest lady said, if the girl is fine, she is ready to go out. Mother Li walked in, smiling all over her face, and her mouth was about to reach the back of her head.

Qing Huan leaned over coldly, her face was slightly angry, "What do you mean it's okay? Mom didn't see it? The girls are like this, how can they go out!"

Mother Li listened to her tone and lowered her face, "Miss Qinghuan has such a big temper, she is angry at me? ”

"The eldest lady doesn't understand the girl's body, don't you understand? Now the girl has a hard time getting out of bed, how can she go out and take the car? My mother has also served the girl for many years, why does she not know how to be considerate the older she gets? Why bother to ask, she should have refused at that time. Qing Huan fell neatly.

Mother Li had a look of shame on her face, "I'm old, not as good as you will behave in front of the girl, and now the girl is only allowed to serve the two of you closely, how can I squeeze in, and how do I know what the girl's body is." ”

said and wiped away his tears, "I put the girl's milk so big, even the girl has never been too bad for me, but I came to pass on a word, why bother with your anger." ”

Qing Huan blushed and was furious, "You-" couldn't say a word angrily.

Qing Huan is like this, he becomes clumsy when he is angry. Shui Xiang patted her on the shoulder and said to Mother Li, "What did Mother say? Could it be that the two of us held you to stop you and didn't let you go up to the girl? Or did one of us block your ears and the other blindfolded you, so you can't hear or see the girl's injuries?"

Mother Li was speechless by her, leaving only her nostrils with breath.

"I would like to ask my mother, how many times have the girl looked for you, you are not there, where have you been?"

Shui Xiang's sharp eyes shot away, making her heart empty and empty, and her eyes were rolling around, as if she was looking for a crack to get into.

Turning his eyes to look at Jiao Niang, he grinned and cried, "Girl, you have to be the master of the slave and maid, the slave and maid have served you for more than ten years......"

Jiao Niang was too lazy to deal with it, and cut off her crying, "You go back to the eldest lady, I am really unwell, and I really can't go out today." ”

Mother Li was stunned, and she instructed Qinghuan to give the prepared gift to Mother Li, and asked her to send it to Ji's family and transfer it to Hua Meiniang on her behalf.

Mother Li held the gift box and was stunned for a long time.

The eldest lady means that since she invited the mansion to go with her, she must give the eldest lady dignity. If there is one less, it may be criticized by the concubines in the prince of Rui, such as the sisters of the Hua family are not harmonious, and a concubine does not give face to Mei Niang.

She didn't have the heart to worry about the two maids at the moment, and said bitterly: "Our sister Yu is the only child in Rui Wangfu, if the girl doesn't go, it will inevitably be not good-looking, maybe Rui Wang Ye still thinks that if you don't move the girl, you won't give him face." I think the girl's complexion is fine, it's better for the girl to insist on it, maybe there is this happy event, and the girl's injury will be healed. ”

A shallow smile appeared on Jiao Niang's lips, she was already sick like this, and she insisted on it. Even Prince Rui moved out, how could a dignified prince care about where a concubine would go?

Besides, she suffered this board for Wanniang, just to avoid this incident, otherwise why suffer this crime.

Li's mother smiled when she saw her, and thought that she had listened to her own persuasion.

Take a few steps forward to wait for the lady to get up.

Jiao Niang pushed her hand away, "Mother Li, I really can't even get out of bed, you are afraid that your mother will not be able to explain it, so it is better for me to send someone to my father to say it, and let my father explain to Lord Rui." ”

Carrying out the uncle, Mother Li dared to talk more, smiled, and said: "I don't have to force the girl, since it really can't be done, the slave and maid will help the girl back to the eldest lady, the eldest lady loves the girl and will understand." ”

pretended to care about Jiao Niang again, asked a few words about the injury, and then left.

Jiao Niang's cold eyes followed her, walked to the door, and suddenly stopped, "Mom has been eating that bird's nest porridge for the past few days?"

Mother Li smiled and said, "Miss Lao remembers, it's already good." Or the girl knows that she feels sorry for my mother, and she is willing to use such a good bird's nest for me. When I meet people, I say, how good our girls are, how much they respect me. ”

"Mother Li raised me to grow up, and I should honor you. Besides, bird's nest is not an expensive thing, you are old and sick, and it is nothing to eat. By the way, yesterday the old lady sent someone to send two taels of the best bird's nest, and I will have someone cook it and send you a bowl, you don't want to be reluctant to eat it. ”

Mother Li was even more happy, her eyes lit up, and she waved again and again, "Thank you, girl, thank you, girl." ”

Jiao Niang bowed, waved her hand to let her leave, and when she came out of the house, her face sank.
