Chapter 16: Scratched twice by a little wild cat
The girl wore a goose-yellow satin dress and a wide-brimmed European lace hat of the same color on her head, and half of her small face was covered by goose-yellow mesh.
Raw lips and white teeth, skin is better than snow, temperament is demure, eyes are smart, and you know that your family background is good at a glance.
"Who is Miss Cheng Er?" Chu Yunyao asked casually.
Mama Rong seemed to have found an outlet, stared coldly at the little white hand that was in Mo Lingyuan's palm, and said unhappily: "No wonder you don't recognize it, Miss Cheng Er is Miss Cheng's sister, and Miss Cheng is the young marshal's second fiancΓ©e."
Although he was in love with the young marshal, it was a pity that his fate was not good, he died early, and he was assassinated the day after his engagement.
Second Miss Cheng is engaged to the second young master of our family, and now she is so close to the eldest young master, she doesn't shy away from suspicion at all, and she doesn't know what An's intentions are. β
As he spoke, he retracted his gaze and looked at Chu Yunyao with a complicated expression, "You have to guard the position of your main room, although a man's three wives and four concubines are nothing, but it is not good to have a favorite concubine and kill his wife like your Chu family." β
Chu Yunyao's heart jumped suddenly: "What did you say happened to the Chu family?" β
Mama Rong's eyes dodged, and she evaded: "It's nothing, let's get in the carriage." β
Chu Yunyao pretended not to see the person standing next to the car, and lowered her head and walked in the direction of the carriage.
Mo Lingyuan's gaze looked over from afar, staring at Chu Yunyao's back, his long legs stepped away, and he stepped in front of her in three or two steps, blocking her way: "Where are you going?" β
"Go to the pharmacy." Chu Yunyao shrank his shoulders and pointed to his face covered by a handkerchief: "The medicine for applying to the face has run out." β
Hearing this, Mo Lingyuan looked down at her body, which was becoming more and more short and thin because of her hanging head, condensed her eyebrows, deliberately grabbed her injured shoulder, lifted it up hard, and threw the person into the carriage: "Go." β
Chu Yunyao grinned in pain, and it was not easy to attack, and her fingers grabbed the back of his hand, leaving two scratches when he let go of her.
Mama Rong blessed her body and followed into the carriage.
Miss Cheng Er's gaze inadvertently fell on the back of Mo Lingyuan's hand, took a few steps forward to hold his knuckled fingers, blew on the two scratches, and asked distressedly, "What's the matter?" Didn't have it just now? Isn't it ......"
"It's fine." Mo Lingyuan withdrew his hand, looked sideways in the direction of the carriage, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly, "I was scratched twice by a little wild cat, it's okay." β
Instructed the driver standing aside: "Send two people to follow the young lady, don't be noticed." β
Miss Cheng Er stared at Mo Lingyuan's well-defined and handsome face, her eyes moved slightly, and she couldn't come back to her senses.
The carriage drove to the noisy street, Chu Yunyao lifted the curtain, observed the hawkers shouting outside and the flow of people in the shops on both sides of the street, thinking about a shop here in the future.
The carriage jolted and was grabbed by the groom.
"Young lady, mamma, it's not good, someone in front of me rode a horse and collided with a pregnant woman, and she is going to die." The groom opened the curtain and pointed to the congested road ahead: "Our carriage can't pass." β
Chu Yunyao glanced at the crowd of onlookers, jumped out of the carriage neatly, ran forward quickly, squeezed through the three layers inside and the three layers outside to watch the lively people, and came to the pregnant woman who was panicked with tears on her face, and her fingers skillfully pressed on the pulse of the pregnant woman.
"It hurts, save me, save my child." The pregnant woman had no master, and grabbed Chu Yunyao's arm.
Chu Yunyao comforted gently: "Don't panic, bear with it, save your strength, the child is about to be born." β
As soon as the words fell, the little maid who went to ask for a doctor pulled an old Chinese medicine doctor and squeezed over: "Doctor Zhang is here, please let me go, let me ...... quickly."
