Chapter 318: Wounded
"Your child has been healthy since he was a child, and he has had fewer headaches and brain fever since he was a child, I heard you say that my aunt is not in a hurry, since there is no problem, then go into the house, today my aunt also invited a juggling team to perform, you must like to watch."
As she spoke, Mrs. Meng took Lan Qinzhu's hand and took her into the room.
Lan Qinzhu was a little reluctant to break away from her hand, but then she thought that Mrs. Meng was her own elder and couldn't bear to lose her face in front of so many people.
"Then I'll go to the yard to breathe, there are so many people in the house who are very stuffy."
Hearing her say this, Mrs. Meng did not reluctantly let go of her hand anymore. "Okay, Auntie asked the maid to lead you to the back garden for a walk, but don't go too long, the banquet will start in a while."
"Got it."
"Doctor Lin." After Mrs. Meng finished talking to Lan Qinzhu, she turned her eyes to look at Lin Mumu.
"Mrs. Meng." Although Mrs. Meng is Mrs. Shangshu, she is a white body after all, and Lin Mumu has an official position, so when she saw Mrs. Meng, she only bowed slightly, indicating that the younger generation respected the elders, and did not need to make a big salute.
"The old lady's illness before was really thanks to Doctor Lin, if there are many people in the house today, if Doctor Lin is neglected, Doctor Lin must not take it to heart."
"Mrs. Meng laughed, and the house never slackened."
"That's fine." Mrs. Meng bowed her head.
"Auntie, let's go in, I'll go to the garden with Mu Mu."
Mrs. Meng bowed slightly, and watched Lan Qinzhu and Lin Mumu go in the direction of the garden before turning around and entering the house.
"Mother."
Meng Nanfei stood up happily as soon as she saw Mrs. Meng enter the house.
Mrs. Meng smiled, and the young ladies present also got up to greet Mrs. Meng.
After Mrs. Meng greeted her, she began to let Meng Nanfei go to the side room to tidy up her appearance with the banquet preparations, and Meng Nanfei was taken out of the house for a reason.
In the partial room, after the maid brought the hot water into the house, Mrs. Meng waved the person away.
Mrs. Meng personally twisted the handkerchief and cleaned Meng Nanfei's hands.
"Mother, Mrs. Duanhua, have they all arrived?"
"Come on, the messenger says it's already on the way."
"That's good."
"What happened in the Flower Hall just now?" Before entering the flower hall, Mrs. Meng learned what had just happened from the maid.
"What's going on, it's that Lin Mumu doesn't know what to do, who does she think she is, and thinks that she is the benefactor of our Meng Mansion when she treats her grandmother? I don't look at what my identity is, and I dare to talk back in front of me! Meng Nanfei snorted angrily.
Mrs. Meng frowned when she saw her like this, and suppressed her voice and whispered seriously. "It's just nonsense!"
Mrs. Meng suddenly became stern, which made Meng Nanfei stunned, and she felt extremely aggrieved when she looked at Mrs. Meng's frowning eyebrows. "Mother, you don't know what Lin Mumu said to her daughter, and cousin, and you don't know what kind of soup she was poured by Lin Mumu to protect her everywhere."
Mrs. Meng looked helpless when she saw her like this, but the sternness in her eyes did not decrease. "Fei'er, you are too willful, no matter what Doctor Lin said, he cured your grandmother's illness, and now you look at her everywhere and others will only think that it is our Meng Mansion who is ungrateful, and you look at what kind of stupid things you said, if it reaches the ears of nobles, do you want your reputation to be gone?!"
"She was originally a medical officer, and that was what she should do, not to mention what kind of identity she was Lin Mumu, it was her honor to treat her grandmother."
"Enough! Today is your most important day, the house has invited so many nobles for this, if something goes wrong, it is we who are ugly, if you dare to come nonsense, my mother will never spare you! ”
Seeing that Mrs. Meng was a little angry, Meng Nanfei's momentum also weakened, and she was still a little afraid of her mother.
"I'm not stupid, of course I won't make a fool of myself and Meng Fu."
Mrs. Meng was a little relieved when she agreed. "Okay, the hour is almost up, I'll ask the maid to change into your formal clothes and go to the front yard."
"I know, mother, you go and entertain the guests first." Meng Nanfei nodded obediently.
Mrs. Meng nodded and got up to leave.
As soon as Mrs. Meng left, the look on Meng Nanfei's face sank. "Hmph, it's someone else who makes a fool of you, so it has nothing to do with the Meng Mansion......"
Lin Mumu and Lan Qinzhu went to the villa garden.
The garden is not very big, but there are a lot of persimmon trees planted in it, and the persimmons are almost ripe at this time, and it is very pleasing to look at hanging high on the trees.
"I don't know if this persimmon is ripe, I'll pick one and taste it." After Lan Qinzhu finished speaking, he rushed to the tree like a monkey, and Lin Mumu didn't stop it even if he wanted to.
"Be careful, don't fall." Lin Mumu raised his neck and shouted as he looked at Lan Qinzhu, who had already arrived at the tree.
"What are you afraid of, climbing trees is just a piece of cake for me...... Yes! Before Lan Qinzhu finished speaking, her body tilted, and her whole body fell under the tree.
"Azhu!" Lin Mumu was frightened, and quickly ran forward to catch her, but Lan Qinzhu fell too fast, and by the time she ran over, Lan Qinzhu had already fallen heavily to the ground.
When Lan Qinzhu fell to the ground, a figure in the darkness quickly turned around and left.
"Azhu, are you alright?"
"Hmm!" Lan Qinzhu snorted, and then Lin Mumu's hand stood up. "It's okay, it's okay, this little bump is nothing at all."
The worry on Lin Mumu's face did not decrease. "I'll help you stand up and see."
"Hmm." Hot search
"Ouch!" As soon as Lan Qinzhu stood up, there was a heart-piercing pain in her legs.
"Be careful!" Lin Mumu hurriedly held her up.
"Gently move your ankle to see if you twist your foot?"
"Hmm...... Yes, twisted. "As soon as Lan Qinzhu moved, her face was distorted in pain." I'm really old, and my hands are born. ”
Lin Mumu glanced at her. "I'm still in the mood to joke, find a room and I'll help you see if you hurt your bones."
"Hmm." Lan Qinzhu was not a reckless person, so she asked the maid Tracy to find a maid from the Meng Mansion to guide her and take the two to the guest room in the villa for guests to rest.
Lin Mumu took off her shoes and found that her entire ankle was swollen, she reached out and pinched her ankle.
"Ouch, you light up, it hurts me to death."
Lin Mumu glanced at her. "Why didn't you think you would have this when you went up the tree?"
Lan Qinzhu licked her lips. "A momentary miss, a momentary miss."
"Fortunately, it didn't hurt the bones, but it was a little misplaced edema, I'll give you two injections and apply ice to it for a few days."
Lan Qinzhu subconsciously reached out and touched the ear beads, and stood up in shock when she found that there was nothing on it. "Oops, where's my earrings! Ouch my feet ......"
"Be careful!"
"My earrings, earrings are missing!" Lan Qinzhu's face was anxious.
"That pendant is important to you?" Lan Qinzhu has never valued these people, and even if the pair of pendants is expensive, it is difficult for Lan Qinzhu to be anxious like this.
A touch of sweetness flashed across Lan Qinzhu's face. "On the day of the ceremony, Fang Gongzi specially asked someone to send it to me, saying that when he saw that pair of pendants, he thought of me, and felt that the pendant was very compatible with me, and I must look good when I wear it." Lan Qinzhu has been wearing the pendant since the moment she received it, and even if she doesn't wear it on her ears, she will carefully put it in her purse and carry it closely.
"No, I'm going to look for it, but I can't lose it." Lan Qinzhu said as she limped out as she spoke.
"Don't move!" Lin Mumu hurriedly pulled her back.
"You tell me what your pendant looks like, and I'll help you find it."
In the past, Lan Qinzhu refused, but she really cherished the pair of pendants, so she told Lin Mumu the appearance of the pendants.
"I think it fell when I fell from the tree, so you can go under the tree and have a look."
Lin Mumu nodded. "I see, I'll go over and have a look now."
"Okay."
Lin Mumu got up and walked out of the guest room and walked towards the previous garden.
As soon as Lin Mumu left on her front foot, Tracy walked in with the blood-invigorating and stasis-removing medicine she asked for from Mengfu.
"Miss, the slave will give you medicine."
Lan Qinzhu nodded absentmindedly and let Tracy pull her trouser leg up.
"Miss is really careless, look at this calf is swollen."
"I twisted my foot, what's the injury anywhere else?" Lan Qinzhu replied casually.
"Miss will see for herself."
Lan Qinzhu followed Tracey's hand and saw a bruise the size of a thumb on the outside of her calf.
Her brow furrowed. "No wonder, I said that something seemed to have hit me in the lower leg when I was in the tree, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen from the tree."
"Eighty percent of them are birds, and you go to steal their food, this is to drive you away."
"Go, go, I'll apply this medicine myself, and you can go back to the garden to find it."
"Got it, slave and maid will go."
Lin Mumu returned to the tree and saw a stick found in a pile of dead branches and leaves.
On the other side, the front yard of the villa was already full of guests.
The auspicious time is approaching, and the salute is about to begin.
There were more guests who came today, and no one noticed whether Lin Mumu and Lan Qinzhu were there.
At the beginning of the gift, everyone's attention was on today's protagonist Meng Nanfei.
At the last step of the ceremony, the maid brought up the box containing the hairpin crown and hairpin.
The guests invited today have long heard that Mrs. Meng went to the Jade Pavilion a year ago to find the most famous jeweler in Xijing to order a hairpin crown that belongs to Meng Nanfei, which is specially made of crystal from the West, which can be said to be the only one in Xijing.
The reason why Mrs. Meng made it so grand was not only because of her love for her daughter, but also because she wanted to raise Meng Nanfei's value in your circle, so that she could have an extra layer of bargaining chips when discussing marriage in the future.
Mrs. Duanhua pinned the hairpin into Meng Nanfei's hair, and in the end, she was left with a hairpin crown.
The maid opened the box containing the hairpin crown, and everyone craned their necks curiously to see what this hairpin crown made of Western crystal looked like.
Who knows, they didn't see it, but what they saw was the panicked face of the maid.
