Chapter 260: Recuperation
Aunt Mei didn't expect that five years had passed, and Xiao Yunling would still miss Duan Shaolan. Back then, Xiao Yunling went behind her back to plot against Duan Shaolan, which annoyed the county lord of Duansu and Xiao Yunling's mother-in-law. He fought everything, and cried and begged Xiao Yunling's father for several days before he saved Xiao Yunling.
Xiao Yunling's mother-in-law still has two girls who have not yet left the cabinet, and the preface teeth are all under Xiao Yunling, and they have already begun to see each other's marriages at that time. Xiao Yunling's mother-in-law couldn't tolerate Xiao Yunling at all, if it weren't for Xiao Yunling's father, who happened to need a foreign appointment, he left the imperial capital with Xiao Yunling.
Aunt Mei looked at Duan Shaolan and Princess Zhaoyue, the youngest daughter of Emperor Chu, thinking that Xiao Yunling had left the imperial capital for five years, and she should have given up.
It's easy to look forward to the end of Xiao Yunling's father's five-year release, Aunt Mei doesn't want her daughter to be married to other places, and thinks day and night that she is looking forward to her daughter coming over, even if she goes out again, she begs Xiao Yunling's mother-in-law to choose a suitable marriage for Xiao Yunling as soon as possible.
Who knew that Sister Chu came to Xianwang's Mansion to play today, and she didn't look at anyone for a while, so she let Xiao Yunling slip out of the yard. Sister Chu is also naΓ―ve, and Sister Chu didn't know about what happened five years ago, so Xiao Yunling followed Sister Chu to the Zhenguo Mansion smoothly. When Aunt Mei found out that something was wrong, she couldn't find Xiao Yunling's person for a long time.
It's easy to wait for Xiao Yunling to come back, she knows that things are so coincidental, Xiao Yunling actually met Princess Zhaoyue and Duan Shaolan as soon as she went today.
Princess Zhaoyue is the daughter of Emperor Liu's concubine, not to mention the favor of His Majesty, and she has two brothers-in-law. Not to mention that Duan Shaolan had no intention of his daughter, if Xiao Yunling dared to have any other thoughts, if this time it was known again, I was afraid that I would never be able to protect her again.
No matter how angry Aunt Mei is, there is no way to do it, she is trapped in this backyard all her life, and she only has this one child for her life.
originally wanted to persuade Xiao Yunling to let go of Duan Shaolan as soon as possible, and from tomorrow onwards, she would go to her grandmother every day to serve her illness and fulfill her filial piety, so that her mother's heart would be soft, and her two younger sisters had also reached the age when they should leave the cabinet, so that her younger brothers and sisters could talk about marriage.
But he didn't expect that after some persuasion, when he arrived at Xiao Yunling's ear, he went in the left ear and out of the right ear, but he couldn't listen to a word.
Seeing Xiao Yunling's reluctant appearance, Aunt Mei was so angry with her daughter that she was dizzy, and after saying what she said, she stood up suddenly, and slapped Xiao Yunling off guard, and actually fell off the stool.
"You can't listen to good words and bad words, can you?" Aunt Mei hit her daughter angrily and said. "Do you know who Princess Zhaoyue is? Didn't I tell you about the trouble in Princess Nan'an's Mansion before? The maid who seduced the horse was killed by Princess Nan'an on the spot, if it weren't for the fact that the horse was the queen's own nephew, I was afraid that I wouldn't even be able to save my life? Princess Zhaoyue is more favored by His Majesty than Princess Nan'an, not to mention, there is also her maternal grandmother, two brothers-in-law, and Concubine Liu Huang behind her, who do you think will protect you in the Xianwang Mansion at that time! β
"But Princess Nan'an's concubine saved her life, and he also broke off his husband and wife status with Princess Nan'an." Xiao Yunling grabbed this. "Cousin Lan is also from the Zhenguo Mansion and Aunt Duansu. If he divorces Princess Zhaoyue, won't he be able to marry me? β
After that, Xiao Yunling seemed to have seen the appearance of herself when she put on her wedding dress and married Duan Shaolan, her eyes lit up with a scorching light, and the corners of her mouth rose and she smiled to herself.
Aunt Mei was so angry by Xiao Yunling's appearance that she retreated again and again, and didn't stop until her back hit the dressing table.
"Sister Ling, don't blame me as a mother if you are obsessed." Aunt Mei couldn't care about anything else at this time, she knew that if Xiao Yunling really dared to provoke Duan Shaolan, most of her life would not be saved. "You don't have to go to Madame's from tomorrow onwards, but you will be sick from this day. Madame, I will go around for you, and set a marriage for you as soon as possible, and then you will directly prepare to get married. β
After that, Aunt Mei didn't want to look down on Xiao Yunling who was sitting on the ground anymore, and called someone in a loud voice.
Aunt Mei summoned in a few sturdy servants who were doing rough work in the courtyard.
"From today onwards, you don't have to do any work in your hands for the time being." Aunt Mei sighed, pointed to Xiao Yunling on the ground and instructed the few of them. "You send the young lady back to your own house, and whoever comes to look for the young lady in the future will only say that the young lady has a disease that can be passed on to people, and it is not serious but you can't see people. You just have to take care of the young lady, and from now on until I say let her out, she can't step out of the room. β
The servants rushed up and mentioned Xiao Yunling, Xiao Yunling looked at Aunt Mei with a calm face in front of her, and suddenly realized something, and struggled violently. But after all, she is a delicate lady raised in a deep boudoir, and the strength of that idea struggle is not comparable to those servant women who do heavy work in the courtyard all year round.
"Auntie, you can fulfill me once." Xiao Yunling struggled in vain under the servants like a fish that had landed on dry ground.
"Sister Ling, you are my daughter." Aunt Mei looked at the tears falling from Xiao Yunling's eyes, but after all, she was ruthless, and simply turned her back directly. "For me, saving your life is the most important thing to me."
"Auntie!" Xiao Yunling's strength was quickly exhausted, and she shouted hoarsely.
"What are you still doing in a daze?!" Aunt Mei said. "Miss is sick, please go back to the room to rest!"
waited for the gradual silence behind her before Aunt Mei turned around.
Seeing Xiao Yunling disappearing outside the door surrounded by the servants, Aunt Mei also felt that she had no strength in her body, and she almost fell down as soon as her legs were weak, but fortunately, she stabilized her body in time.
Aunt Mei immediately asked the maid beside her to bring back the medicine that demobilized people's limbs from outside the mansion and put it in Xiao Yunling's daily meals. Xiao Yunling was on a hunger strike, so she ordered someone to directly hold down Xiao Yunling's limbs and force things down. Eating some every day can make Xiao Yunling stay in the room honestly.
Early the next morning, Aunt Mei arrived at Xiao Yunling's mother's courtyard very early.
Xiao Yunling followed Sister Chu to the Zhenguo Mansion yesterday, and Xiao Yunling's mother, Han, already knew about it.
She didn't intervene in dealing with Xiao Yunling, because she knew that Aunt Mei was not used to Xiao Yunling continuing to mess around, and Aunt Mei locked up Xiao Yunling and only told the news of recuperation, and it was also after her acquiescence that it came out of the Xianwang Mansion.
Han Shi was indeed relapsed because of his old illness for a while, so he had to stay in bed to recuperate.
She got up early in the morning, and when she got up, the maid from the outer courtyard came in to report that Aunt Mei had come to say goodbye.
"Go and ask Aunt Mei to come in and talk." Han got up and instructed the maid.
Soon, Aunt Mei went out with Fang Cai and invited her maid in.
"The concubine greets the lady." Aunt Mei walked quickly to Han's bed and knelt on the edge of the bed. "Yesterday, Sister Ling was ignorant, so she didn't go out with Sister Chu, because the concubine didn't discipline her well, and begged Mrs. to spare her."
"Get up and speak." Han covered his lips and coughed lightly twice, motioning for the maid to help Aunt Mei get up. "I've heard about your treatment of Sister Ling'er, but fortunately, Sister Ling'er doesn't have a bright brain, but you are a sensible person."
"Madam, Sister Ling is not young now, and the concubine wants to ask Mrs. to find a marriage for Sister Ling and send her to marry as soon as possible. Don't let Sister Ling delay the marriage of her younger brothers and sisters alone. "Aunt Mei has always looked at her eyes, and she knows that her handling yesterday was at least satisfactory to the Han family." The concubine has no requirements, as long as Sister Ling can be treated well in the future. β
"Hey, although Sister Ling is at fault, she has been calling her mother for more than ten years." Han looked at Aunt Mei and said. "Since she came back with her master, my body has been sick, but I am also thinking about Sister Ling'er's marriage. It's just that in the current situation, Sister Ling is not suitable for marrying in the imperial capital, but don't worry, I asked my mother's family to come forward and set a few families for me, and it is not very far from the imperial capital. Go back and let people tell you about the situation of those people, you are Sister Ling's biological mother, and her marriage is up to you. β
"The concubine thanked Mrs. for her generosity, and she was willing to work for Sister Ling's son." Aunt Mei said gratefully.
"Alright, thank me for not saying more." Han said coldly. "If you really want to thank me, I will choose a family as soon as possible and let Xiao Yunling be honest and marry. The marriage of my two daughters has been decided, but if Xiao Yunling dares to make something happen again, it will tarnish the reputation of the girls in the family. I'm afraid that when the time comes, I won't be the first to ask for her life, even the princess and the princess will not let her go. β
The warning in Han's words, Aunt Mei naturally understood.
King Xian's Mansion is a big family, and Xiao Yunling is not the only girl in the mansion. The princess and the three girls who have not agreed on the marriage, if Xiao Yunling makes trouble again, I am afraid that the only way to kill herself is to go.
"Madame's words have been written down by the concubine." Aunt Mei immediately expressed her position. "The concubine has ordered someone to take care of Sister Ling'er tightly, she will always be in bed to recuperate, and the concubine will never let her have a chance to step out of the house before she gets married."
"Well, it's best if you can do it." Han Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said. "If she doesn't have a crush on the children of the Duansu family, she is bent on being a concubine, and no one will stop her. But Aunt Mei, you should know best in your heart, if you are given a chance to do it again, will you choose to be a wife or a concubine? β
Aunt Mei didn't speak, she was originally a young lady from an official family with a decent background, if she hadn't been in the middle of the family, she wouldn't have been sent by her family to the princess as a concubine.
