Chapter 26 Lifting of the ban
"Just now, the old man checked the pulse of the young lady, and found that the young lady's internal fire was hot and dry, and she couldn't come out. Presumably, this fainting must have been caused by this. "The old doctor who came this time is the doctor of the Rejuvenation Hall." I wonder if Miss didn't go out much today? The old doctor looked at his wife and asked.
"Does it have anything to do with that?" Mrs. avoids the important and takes it lightly.
"The old lady Guan is slightly pale, which is rarely nourished by the sun; Diagnosing its pulse, it is also depressed in the heart. This disease only needs a few herbs to dissipate heat. It's just that Miss, you still need to relax your mentality, and everything goes well. The old doctor explained with a serious face.
It's frustrated again! When Master Lin heard these four words now, it was as uncomfortable as being pricked in the heart. "Then there is Dr. Lao who will prescribe a few prescriptions for the little girl, and after she recovers, there will be heavy thanks in the house." Master Lin arched his hand and said.
"Master Lin is polite, curing diseases and saving people is what my generation must do." The old doctor replied with a smile.
"Ah Ci, you personally go to the pharmacy with the doctor to get medicine." As he spoke, he walked towards the inner room.
Mr. Lin sat on the edge of the bed, and his wife stood beside him. "The doctor said, Mengqi is fine, but she needs to go out and walk around more on weekdays, if you want to eat, drink, or do, you can do it according to your heart, don't hold it in your heart." Master Lin looked at the second lady with a pale face and said.
The second lady's eyes suddenly lit up and asked, "Can I really leave the yard and go out for a walk?" As he spoke, he glanced up at his wife, and carefully forgot about Master Lin and said, "I want to go and see the third aunt, is it okay?" "Absolutely." He didn't want the second miss to lose his mother's love like the third miss.
"But sir, the second lady is being grounded, and she is not allowed to visit the third aunt privately. This is what Mother commanded. The wife was lukewarm and repeated it.
The second lady looked at Master Lin with tears in her eyes as if she was frightened. Master Lin paused: "I will make this matter clear to my mother." Then he said to the second lady: "But Mengqi has to take care of her body before she can go to see the third aunt." The second young lady Mengqi obediently agreed: "Okay, I will obediently listen to my father's words." ”
Master Lin helped the second lady cover up the quilt: "Sleep, rest well, and my father will come to see you tomorrow." The second lady stretched out her hand from the quilt, grabbed Master Lin's sleeve and asked, "Is my father going to the third aunt?" Can my father help Mengqi tell her aunt that Mengqi misses her very much. Master Lin stuffed the second lady's hand back into the quilt and said, "It's late now, I'm afraid the third aunt has already fallen asleep, tomorrow, Mengqi is well, and you can go and tell the aunt yourself." ”
As he spoke, he instructed the second lady to take good care of the young lady, and walked towards the door, and the wife followed.
Walking outside the door, Master Lin turned to his wife and said, "I'll go to the study first, and spend the night in your house tonight, and you go back to clean up." With that, he walked in the direction of the study.
The wife was stunned at the door, and Zhao Fan, the eldest girl at the door of the wife, said: "It's rare for the master to go to the lady's house, so go back and prepare for the lady." Mrs. looked thoughtfully at the back of Master Lin leaving, and she really couldn't imagine why he was so different from the past today. I couldn't figure it out, so I could only give up and walk towards the peony garden in my yard.
In the Peony Pavilion, I heard that the master was going to spend the night here, and a group of maids and women cleaned up even more energetically. Only when the wives are favored can they be superior to the subordinates of other courtyards. The wife was sitting in front of the dresser, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, touching her face, and remembering the most glorious youth she had lost. Behind her, the big girl Xiangyu is helping her remove her headdress.
Going to the study is just an excuse for Master Lin, he wants to buffer each other's embarrassment and let each other have some room to adapt. Master Lin walked into the Peony Garden, and the maids and women outside the house all stopped saluting with live blessings in their hands, and the fragrant jade in the house heard the sound outside the door, and the movements of their hands were faster.
Xiangyu followed his wife to the door, and blessed the old man to say goodbye. I heard Master Lin instruct: "Put the bath bucket in the ear room, boil water and prepare for bathing." Xiangyu was afraid that she had heard it wrong, so she looked at Master Lin incredulously, and saw that his brows suddenly wrinkled, and said, "Why don't you go quickly?" Xiangyu immediately agreed happily and ran down.
The wife thought that tonight, the master was just the same as usual, just finding a place to sleep and sleeping with her. He never freshened up and bathed in her room, and today, what the hell is going on. Master Lin glanced at the wife who was still standing there, walked to the coffee table and sat down, lifted the teapot and prepared to pour the tea.
The wife came up and took the hand and said, "It's night, the concubine is not used to drinking tea, and there is only warm water in the teapot." Master Lin nodded noncommittally and motioned for his wife to pour him a glass. The faint warm water is just like the attitude of the woman in front of him all these years. She also used to please him in every way, but he didn't pay attention to it, she thought about it, and she was indifferent, and he didn't care. It's just that today's dream words are like a slap in the face, which makes him wake up. Does he really want to be like this all the time, with Wanjun's memories, to live this life? If she in front of her also leaves like Wanjun, will he really remain indifferent? He shouldn't be able to do it, Wanjun has been gone for a full twelve years, and she has been with him for seven years, does he want to continue like before?
"Has Madame bathed?" He suddenly found that there was nothing to talk about between them. She is not like the third aunt, she knows what he wants, knows what he wants, and always finds something to talk about. She just stood there silently, nothing more.
"Not yet, after the master has bathed, the concubine will go to freshen up." It's so quiet, I'm not used to it. All the while, she was the one who dressed him, he fell asleep, and then she lay down next to him, and just like that, countless nights, more nights, she slept alone in bed. Xu Shi has never bathed here, so there is not much boiling water in the kitchen, so his movements are slow. She was thinking that whether she needed it or not, she would have to let them prepare it in the future, so as to reduce the time for such an embarrassing face.
At this moment, Xiangyu came back and said that the hot water for bathing in her ears was ready.
Master Lin stood up and ordered, "You all go down." Then he walked to the ear room, but found that the wife behind him did not follow, and frowned and said, "What are you doing standing there, come and wait for me to bathe." ”
Suddenly, the wife was stunned, and at that second, her face was covered with redness, just like the newlywed that day. Looking at such a wife, Master Lin turned his head and the corners of his mouth rose. It didn't matter if his wife followed or not, he continued to walk forward.
What the hell happened to him today? How could he let her serve him in the bath? The wife was shy, but she couldn't figure out the reasons. Take a deep breath, she is his wife anyway, and there is nothing wrong with him asking her to help him bathe, no big deal. After the entanglement, the wife also started to walk towards Master Lin.
Mrs. really wanted to continue to be indifferent, she gently untied Master Lin's belt, took off her outer robe, and only left her underwear. Master Lin watched his wife's unskilled movements and waited quietly. When Mr. Lin stepped into the bathtub naked, Mrs. Lin was already like a little girl who was new to life, and she was too shy to help herself.
