Chapter 30: The Vigil

Suddenly, a big curtain grabbed her, she thought it was Shuyu, and turned her head in surprise--

But it's Yuan Niang.

She gathered her clothes in disappointment: "Husband has not come back?" ”

Yuan Niang shook her head: "Today, the saint suddenly set up a palace banquet, and it will be too late for the second master to come back." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Afu and helped her to the side, bowed down and rubbed her knees: "It's tired of our girl, hey! ”

Afu looked at the nurse who was over half a hundred years old, and for the first time felt distressed.

Although she has been a slave since she was a child, Yuan Niang, like the old lady, feels sorry for herself from the bottom of her heart and is good to herself.

She stretched out her hand and helped Yuan Niang: "Yuan Niang sit down, don't hunch your waist, it's not good for your body." ”

Yuan Niang didn't listen to it at all, and still muttered to herself: "The girl doesn't know how to rest, the old lady Ming'er is well, the girl is tired again, and the lady can't help but feel distressed."

Afu listened quietly.

It was rare that she was not interrupted by the girl, and Yuan Niang felt that something was wrong, straightened up, and carefully looked at the girl's face.

Afu's eyes flashed with tears, took her hand, and said softly: "Don't be busy, Yuan Niang, you go back and call Sakura to stay with me for a night." ”

In the end, Afu really regrouped in the blue yarn cupboard in the old lady's house for a night, and had to get up early the next day to freshen up, in case the concubine and the little uncle came to give the old lady a gift.

When Shuyu came back at noon and rushed to Dehetang to see the old lady, he saw that Afu was still in the same clothes as yesterday, and was concentrating on filtering medicine, so he asked, "Have you been with A-Niang last night?" ”

Ah Fu was frightened, spilled a little medicine, and hurriedly stabilized her wrist: "Husband is back?" ”

Shuyu sighed.

Huan Xian, who was waiting next to him, couldn't help but prick up his ears with a weak heart.

After she changed her clothes yesterday, she was very broken and lazy for a while.

In the evening, I finally got up and went to do my filial piety, but the sister-in-law made people say that the second lady was on duty tonight.

When I came over this morning, I saw that the second sister-in-law's face was not as good as the sick old lady, and the second master might be angry when he came back and saw that they had bullied the second sister-in-law.

Ah Fu said softly while pouring the medicine: "Ah Niang woke up a few times intermittently last night, I can't rest assured, my husband never came back, so I live here with Ah Niang." ”

Shu Yu looked at Afu's side face, thinking that he was tired, and he only felt that his eye sockets were sunken.

He was distressed, but after all, he was serving his mother, so he didn't say anything, and walked to the old lady's bed to say goodbye.

Thinking about it, it is indeed the wind evil that invades the body, and this disease comes and goes quickly, and the old lady's expression is much better today.

Although he was still lying in the stacked bedding and didn't dare to move, his eyes were much clearer, and he didn't feel too dizzy.

"Ah Niang is better? The son was summoned to the palace yesterday, and he was really ashamed that he couldn't accompany A-Niang's bed. Shuyu knelt at the head of Mrs. Pei's bed and said.

Old Madam Pei smiled, and her voice was very small: "It's okay." Spending all of you here, A-Niang can't help it. ”

Wang Xi stood at the head of the bed on the other side and said with a smile: "This is thanks to the second brother and sister, it is really the person on the tip of my mother-in-law's heart, my mother-in-law's illness went so quickly, and my daughter-in-law saw that it was all the credit of the second brother and sister." ”

Hearing this, a room full of people looked at Afu who was silently taking cold medicine. The latter didn't expect to hear his sister-in-law's praise, so he hurriedly got up and said, "Sister-in-law praised it falsely, and Afu didn't do anything, but she just rested in A-Niang's house for one night."

The more she talked, the more unconfident she became, as if she saw the cold mockery in Wang Xi's eyes, as if to say, I'm just polite, you take it seriously...

Huan Xian also saw the twists and turns between the two sisters-in-law, she was weak-hearted, and hurriedly said: "Second sister-in-law, don't be modest, mother-in-law likes the second sister-in-law, and she is happy when she sees it, isn't the illness half gone!" ”

Old Madam Pei listened to everyone praising Afu, thinking that Afu was finally standing on her heels, and her heart was also happy, so she listened to them with a smile.

Wang Xi smiled and said: "Shuyu, if you want me to see, you can lend your daughter-in-law for half a month and let her live with her mother-in-law, so that your mother-in-law can recuperate with peace of mind." ”

Afu complained bitterly in her heart: Half a month, I'm afraid that I will only have a skeleton left in ten days!

Shu Yu said with a smile: "If A-Niang wants A-Fu to accompany her, where is the reason for her son not to let go." A-Niang, what do you say? ”

Old Madam Pei's eyes were dizzy, and she couldn't see the distress signal in Afu's eyes.

She thought that if she stayed with Afu for two more days, Afu would be more powerful, and it would be more convenient for her to be in charge of the Pei family in the future.

nodded slightly: "Then A-Niang is welcome, I will borrow A-Fu from you for a few days." ”

Everyone laughed, Huan Xian also smiled, looking at the dignified sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law who was obviously a little helpless, and felt as if she had done something wrong again.

The old lady's illness lasted for about three or four days, and dizziness always occurred for several hours a day.

This dizziness is really unbearable, she really can't remember to understand Afu, she just blindly wants to hold Afu's hand.

Shu Yu only felt that every day he saw Afu thinner than the previous day, and he only regretted it in his heart, but he was embarrassed to ask for someone from the sick old lady.

Yuan Niang, Sakura and Wanwan all moved to Dehetang to help Afu, and the Rongdong Courtyard became deserted, and there was no one to serve them.

But Shuyu was not willing to go to Mingyuan and Qingyan in the ear room, and would rather go back to the room every day to sleep on the empty bed, get up the next day and go to the court, and be busy until the evening to come back.
