Chapter 9, the apricot makes it bad
"My cousin laughed, how could I look down on my aunt, it's just that the rules of the Guogong Mansion have opened my eyes, and there are still younger brothers and daughters-in-law in this world who are in charge of the affairs in the eldest brother's room...... My mother didn't dare to meddle in the affairs of my eldest lady's aunt's room. ”
The second lady didn't react, and only after she reacted did she realize what Shen Mingze meant, if this was spread out, what face would she have to face her relatives and friends.
"Mother, I... What he said, I don't have the face to live. ”
Shen Mingze was waiting outside the screen, and he had already heard the conversation inside, and half of what the old lady said was that he was nosy.
He didn't want to interfere, but seeing his cousin so uncomfortable, and these people were still arguing about something inconsequential.
"The second lady is serious, the eldest lady in the house is sick, and it is so difficult to even ask for a doctor, if the old lady is sick one day, please not come to the doctor, I am afraid that she will be poked in the back."
Shen Mingze's words were vicious, cursing the old lady.
The second lady was unwilling to bear such a charge, and began to make trouble in front of outsiders, Zhong Jinxiu felt a headache.
"Second aunt, I have a headache because you make trouble, I don't believe in the medical skills of that charlatan, you can call that doctor, let her show me, one more doctor to see, maybe my illness will be cured tomorrow morning."
Zhong Jinxiu knew in her heart that she would not be invited, if she remembered well, the second aunt used the doctor invited by the house to go to her private medicinal herb shop for a consultation.
There is nothing wrong with the prescription of the medicine, but there is something wrong with the medicine.
The shop sells counterfeit medicines.
The second aunt has a big deal this time.
In the last life, the second uncle pushed the doctor out and took the blame.
But the doctors who can come to the palace of the grandfather of the country are all connected, and the doctor also found someone, so he confessed the second uncle, and finally lost the silver, so it was settled.
But this time, if you want to pass so easily, I'm afraid you can't.
When the second lady heard her say that she was still looking for a doctor, her head suddenly became big.
He said, "I've already gone to please." ”
At this time, the second aunt is afraid that she still doesn't know.
"Hey, forget it, I want to sleep." You can't force it too hard, I'm afraid you'll be suspected.
The old lady knew that it would not be good today, so she said: "You go to sleep first, with your grandmother here, you will not be wronged." ”
Zhong Jinxiu's face suddenly became happy, and said, "Thank you, grandmother." ”
The old lady walked out of the screen, and Shen Mingze, who was sitting not far away drinking tea, hurriedly stood up.
"Greetings to the old lady."
"Thanks to you today, you can rest assured, my aunt has been wronged, and I will make decisions for her."
Shen Mingze said politely: "It's all a family, where are there grievances or not, the old lady is serious." ”
The old lady bowed at him, then glanced at the people in the screen, said nothing, and left.
The eldest lady followed out, and when she turned back, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Shen Mingze looked at his aunt's unsuccessful appearance, and was very worried.
My aunt is still like this, isn't my cousin even more angry, seeing that he is sick and has to work for his aunt, he must be very depressed at ordinary times.
As soon as the old lady left, Zhong Jinxin also wanted to go back with her, and she was no longer at ease, and she didn't have time to tell her.
She didn't believe her words now, and wondered if she might steal it at night.
Besides, what Zhong Jinxiu said today pushed himself to the forefront of the wave, and I am afraid that I will have to ask again.
And Zhong Jinxiu was lying on the bed, but he didn't sleep.
Shen Mingze couldn't get in outside, so he asked, "Is my cousin okay?" When I went out to look for a doctor, I happened to buy some snacks, I wonder if my cousin wants to try them? ”
Zhong Jinxiu looked at her cousin's figure, so she asked the maid to bring a dress for herself and invited him in.
Shen Mingze hesitated and said, "I'd better stand outside." ”
Zhong Jinxiu knew that his cousin was taboo in his heart, and he was very grateful to him for being so compassionate.
She asked the maid to go out and take the things and put them on the table, while she sat down at the table, and then looked at the screen, but felt that she had seen something outside, so she asked the maid to remove it.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
No one knew that Shen Mingze looked at that quiet face at this moment, and no one could know the excitement in his heart, he was already very restrained.
I am afraid that my own enthusiasm will make people think that he is Meng Lang.
Lost points in my cousin's heart.
Zhong Jinxiu looked at his cousin's gentle face and behaved well, remembering that he and his cousin did not have much intersection in the previous life.
remembered that he insisted on marrying that man, but his father did not allow it, and he intended to marry his cousin, but his cousin refused because he was not doing his job.
Zhong Jinxiu was reborn and was very patient with those who were once good to him.
"I heard that my cousin is going to take the entrance examination, but are you ready?"
"Already... Not bad. He almost behaved unsteadily, and when he heard his cousin cough again, he suddenly hit him on the forehead, and said, "It's my rudeness, my cousin is still sick, how can I pester my cousin to talk." ”
As he spoke, he got up to take his leave.
Zhong Jinxiu didn't stay, and only told Zhong Huai to take him to the guest room, after all, she was a patient.
Then Zhong Jinxiu lay on the bed, and Peaches came in to tuck the quilt for her, and looked at the master's eyes open, a little sharp.
Peaches was already afraid of this master, but now she felt even more shocked, and her hands tucked the corners of her back and couldn't help but tremble.
Zhong Jinxiu knew what she was afraid of, and she remembered that she had just beaten her not long ago.
Because she likes the four princes, Peaches said: The four princes are dragons and phoenixes, and I am afraid that they will not look down on Miss.
It was a joke, but at that time, I was depressed, and the apricots next to me added oil and vinegar, saying that only the prince could match the daughter of her father.
But in one sentence, she hit her.
In the last life, only Peaches accompanied her to the end, and this apricot, after Zhong Jinling followed him into the Four Princes' Mansion, her infidelity was discovered.
Seeing that Peaches was a little trembling, Zhong Jinxiu said, "Peaches, don't cover me with a quilt." ”
"Miss......" Momoko remembered that she didn't like others to question her orders, but she still whispered, "It's going to catch a cold." ”
Zhong Jinxiu's heart warmed, and she sat up.
Momoko hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and then put a pillow behind her so that she could lean comfortably.
"Peach, don't be afraid of me, I won't beat you again."
"Slaves don't dare."
"Well, Momoko, can I ask you to do something for me?"
"Miss, please command."
"You go down first, let Xing'er come and wait."
Zhong Jinxiu knew that this apricot was a person from the second room.
Peaches bit her lip and said in her heart: Miss still doesn't believe her.
But she did not disobey, nor did she dare to have grievances.
The apricot was preparing to eat in the kitchen at the moment, and when she heard that the eldest lady was looking for her, she hurriedly put away the medicine bag in her hand, which was given to her by the second lady, saying that it could make her body weak.
Zhong Jinxiu came to her, but she didn't want to give her time to make trouble.
When Xing'er came, Zhong Jinxiu fell asleep all the time, Xing'er pushed a few times, and Zhong Jinxiu fell asleep again with a grunt.
It's been a long time, and I've slept for so long, and I haven't coughed.
If it gets better tomorrow and she enters the palace, where is there anything about the second lady, and the second lady will definitely point her to the second-rate son in the concierge at that time.
No, she finally got mixed up with the big girl next to the eldest lady, and even if she doesn't become a housekeeper in the future, she can be a noble concubine.
It can't be destroyed in the hands of the second lady.
And the second lady promised her that if he could do it, he would want to let herself be the second lady's maid, and when the time comes, she will wait for her uncle and become a noble concubine.
The second lady is as beautiful as a flower, and she will definitely be able to marry a good family in the future, as long as the eldest lady, she is quite willful, and her reputation is even more unbearable, where will there be a good family who wants her.
Thinking like this, I made up my mind.
Then he brought a basin of cold water, looked at the sleeping face of the eldest lady, and was about to splash a basin of water.
At this moment, Peaches came over to change shifts, happened to see it, and was busy scolding her.
As a thief, she was so frightened that she fell to the ground with a basin of water.
I saw the lying person and had the intention of waking up.
Zhong Jinxiu didn't actually fall asleep, she just wanted to see how Xing'er would choose this time.
Can... After all, I was too tolerant.
The peach wanted to come forward to call the master, but the apricot saw that the momentum was not good, so she hurriedly pulled the peach away, and took advantage of Zhong Jinxiu's awakening to complain: "Miss, that peach is deliberately dissecting, she actually wants to harm you?" ”
Seeing that she was falsely accused, Momoko hurriedly explained: "I didn't, Miss, I didn't." ”
Zhong Jinxiu looked at the two people kneeling on the ground and said softly, "Really?" ”
That apricot is confident that the eldest lady will believe in herself.
"Miss, Momoko hated you for punishing her in the first place, so she thought about revenge. She splashes you with water, just hoping that you won't be able to enter the palace tomorrow and ruin your marriage. ”
Zhong Jinxiu looked at the candles in the house, but looking at the water under the apricot feet and the dirty skirt, she couldn't figure out how she was blind in her previous life and would believe her words.
"Peach, come here and help me down."
Xing'er got closer, got up to help, Zhong Jinxiu blocked her, handed her hand to the peach who walked in, and then got out of bed.
Zhong Jinxiu looked at Xing'er, and the ruthlessness in her eyes that could see through everything in a trance frightened her to kneel.
When Peaches saw her master's behavior, she suddenly had a backbone in her heart, and replied: "Master, just now I came in from outside, and the night guard outside can testify, and as soon as the slave and maid came in, she saw her holding a basin, and I don't know what she wanted. Now it seems that she is trying to splash you with water and make your condition worse. ”
"Master, it's really not me, you have to believe me... Just now she wanted to harm you, but it was the slave who stopped her. ”
Zhong Jinxiu sneered lightly in her heart, stepped forward and asked:
"Apricot, how am I treating you?"
Xing'er looked up at the condescending eldest lady, with a solemn expression, not angry but mighty.
"The eldest lady treats me very lovingly."
"Then why are you still hurting me?"
"I didn't..."Before she could arrange it, Zhong Jinxiu looked at her and said, "I didn't fall asleep just now, you called me a total of five times." ”
"Miss, you..."How is that possible? Not long ago, Miss still had a lot of trust, it must be Momoko who said bad things about her, it must be.
"Master, did Momoko say something in front of you? You don't have to trust her, she... Think about it, she used to say that you were not worthy of the fourth prince and deliberately blocked you, have you forgotten? ”
