Chapter 21 Chrysanthemum Brewing
Ju Brew, who had been silent at the door, stepped forward at this time and gently helped Sisi into the house.
Outside the house, Lan Xiang's eyes were red, and she still didn't say anything and went down.
Ju Brew helped Sisi sit in front of the dresser, untied her hair, and used a small wooden comb to help Sisi grate her hair little by little.
Sisi had a hangover last night, and she had this ventilation again, and her headache was about to crack, Ju Brew gently rubbed Sisi's temples and didn't say a word.
Sisi closed her eyes and didn't want to speak, so she couldn't help but ask after thinking about it.
"Am I bad for you guys?"
"The county lord is excellent to a few of us."
"But look at the orchid, alas."
"Don't hurt the county lord, everyone has their own ambitions, if she wants to do this, so be it."
Ju Brew has always cared about these trivial matters, she never thinks about anything else except taking care of Sisi's daily life.
Sisi made the chrysanthemum very comfortable, and the drowsiness crawled to his face.
Lying back on the bed and wanting to get some sleep, Ju Chu gently lowered the bed curtain to block the sun, and exited the room after making a proper adjustment.
The water lily that was pulled by the orchid and only had flower stalks left was gone, and the chrysanthemum brewed the inside of the tank and moved a new water lily.
Liu's mother is getting worse and worse, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive this year. At the beginning of spring, he was infected with a cold and did not get better after these days, Xihe also took out his treasured ginseng and boiled a decoction for Liu's mother, but it didn't work.
Wudou has also come to Agarwood Zhai these days, and I want to stay in front of Liu's mother's bed every day.
Ju Brew thought about taking advantage of Sisi's sleep, she was so good that she boiled some porridge and sent it to Wudou.
The porridge simmering on the casserole was bubbling, and the chrysanthemum was neatly cut into small cubes and thrown into the casserole.
Watching the lean meat tumble and change color in the casserole, Ju brewed a god.
Today, seeing Lan Xiang fighting for her marriage like this, do you have to think about it for the future? Wudou knows his own intentions, if he asks the county lord for marriage, how about entrusting it to him?
Ju Brew has no big ambitions, and she is not in the mood to love, she just wants to spend this life steadily, when she was young, her mother told her that women, she is afraid of marrying the wrong man.
Ju Brew was fashionable and five years old, and he didn't understand his mother's words, and his father, as usual, went out at night, and returned when he was a child, full of alcohol. During the day, the mother was going to serve in the eldest lady's room, so she lay down in the garden to play, and from the gap in the rockery, she saw that the father, who was the housekeeper, took the hand of the maid in the eldest girl's room.
At that time, Kikujo probably understood what his mother meant. Later, the mother got the weight of the eldest lady, and the rewards became more, and the father sold those rewards without saying a word to gamble, and the mother's crying did not exchange for the father's restraint, but for the fist that smashed down against the head.
Kikuzo slept on the bed in the back room, it was pitch black all around, and all that could be heard was the sound of fists smashing against bones and the cries of his mother.
In the dark night, Ju Zhu's eyes widened, and she understood what her mother said.
Later, the house was raided, and my mother wasted a lot of effort to send herself out of the house and fell into the hands of human traffickers. I heard that the men and women in the house were all assigned to Liuzhou, and the domestic servants were all killed.
The porridge was puffed twice, and the casserole was poured over the fire.
Yikes-
Ju Brew came back to his senses and hurriedly took the casserole away from the stove.
Lisuo took out a jar and picked up a few side dishes in the kitchen, and Ju Brew walked out of the kitchen with a small basket.
This kitchen is a kitchen dedicated to cooking for people, and usually a few of them want to cook a porridge and stir-fry a dish by themselves, so they come here to do it themselves.
Mei Lan Zhu Ju is a powerful girl in the county lord's courtyard, and she has some face in the princess's mansion, in addition to the sunset moon of the 'light secluded residence', Ju Brew is also a celebrity in the princess's mansion, and someone calls Sister Ju Brew wherever she goes.
As soon as I went out, I ran into Shoko who was coming towards me.
Xiangzi is a sweeping eunuch in the front hall, helping to carry a flower pot or a box or something on weekdays. There is no small servant in the princess's mansion, except for the nursing courtyard, that is, the eunuchs, the eunuchs are sent from the palace, they are young and easy to train, because Xi and do not often discipline the subordinates, so the subordinates of the princess's mansion are not as smooth as in the palace, and they still retain their personality.
It's not just one like Shoko.
Xiangzi cleans up early, has no Adam's apple, and speaks softly. Because of a certain evil taste of Sisi, he now lives in the same room with Wudou, Wudou is tall and handsome, and Xiangzi has never seen any decent men, so he quietly promised Wudou Fang. After a few days of dedication, Wudou was so frightened that his hairs stood on end, thinking about what kind of road this guy had?
Later, I learned that Wudou fell in love with Sister Juzai, and Shoko fell out of love.
In the past two days, Wudou has been taking care of Liu's mother without untying his clothes, and Xiangzi wanted to send some food to Wudou, so he met Ju Brew who was just about to cross the threshold in the kitchen.
"Sister Kikuzo is good"
Shoko greeted Kikujo first.
Ju Brew only nodded slightly, and walked forward again.
Xiangzi looked back at the back of Juzhu, his emaciated shoulders were at right angles, although he was not as delicate as Lanxiang, but he had a warm temperament and a quiet temperament, how could he compare with him.
Alasββ, Xiangzi sighed, for his 'brother' who died prematurely, and for the love that ended without a problem.
Xihe went to see Liu's mother before leaving in the morning, and he couldn't speak very much a few days ago, and this morning he asked Wudou to help him up and lean against the head of the bed to salute Xihe.
"I'm afraid the old slave will be useless, Her Royal Highness the princess should be careful in the future."
"Mother Liu, don't say that, take care of your body with peace of mind, don't worry about anything else."
After waking up in the morning, she had been sleeping at noon, and Wudou didn't dare to leave, for fear that she would suddenly wake up and drink water.
Liu's mother's body seemed to be suddenly dead, at this time last year, she was still laughing with her, and today she is lying here speechless.
Wudou was a little anxious, he stood up, twisted a clean handkerchief, and wiped Liu's mother's hands.
When Ju Brew came in, Wudou was wiping Liu's mother's face.
"Wudou, how is Mother Liu today."
"I woke up in the morning and said a few words to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and fell asleep again." Wudou has been undressed for the past few days, and the beard on his face has grown, and the whole person looks depressed and sad.
"I'll make porridge for you, you eat a little, and I'll leave it to me." Ju Brew took the handkerchief from Wudou's hand and gently wiped Liu's mother's face.
Mother Liu's eyes opened slightly, and when she saw that it was chrysanthemum, she fell into boundless sleep again, and she vaguely felt that she couldn't survive this summer.
"If Mama Liu can't survive, what should you do?"
"Mother Liu treats me as her own son, so I naturally want to dress her in linen and filial piety."
"In this way, when Mother Liu is better, you can go to the county lord and ask for grace."
Ju Brew said in a muffled voice.
Wudou didn't seem to react, and drank a bowl of porridge with a snort, and suddenly blessed his soul.
"You mean, you're willing to follow me..."
Wudou didn't know what to say, Chaos' eyes lit up again, he put the bowl down, took a few steps forward and held Juzhuo's hand.
Ju Brew struggled lightly: "Let go, I still have to wipe my face for Mother Liu, you stupid son, so I forgot your mother, I still have to do my filial piety!" β
Wudou smirked and let go of his hand.
Ju Brew lowered his head and wiped it carefully, and no one in the room spoke.
Ju Brew can think about it, she wants to stay in the princess's mansion, she wants to follow the county lord. Before Lu Rao married Zhuangzi that year, he told Ju Brew that the county lord was the best master, and he would not treat her badly in the future.
But looking at Lanxiang like this today, Ju Brew thought again, she didn't want to go on the road of Lanxiang, she didn't want to be prosperous as long as she was stable, she came to the princess's mansion at the age of nine, she didn't want to go, she didn't want to marry a noble person as a concubine like Lanxiang, and she didn't want to marry Zhuangzi like Lu Rao. Thinking about it, only five buckets are suitable, and he likes himself, which is the most suitable.
She doesn't need any love, thinking of her father, she feels that she is more blessed than her mother.
"You eat, I'm leaving, and the county lord will wake up in a while and I don't know what to order."
Ju Brew came back with an empty basket again.
Sisi didn't wake up when she went back to the yard, she went back to the room, Sisi didn't use people to serve her, most of the time, Meilan Zhuju was doing something in the room.
When I came back, I saw Lan Xiang alone in the room, and Mei Zhi and Zhu Qing were missing.
"What about the two of them?"
"Mei Zhi said that he was afraid that the county lord would wake up and want to take a bath in a while, so Zhu Qing followed him to boil water."
Lan Xiang's red eyes twitched.
"You, are you alright?" Ju Brew is not very good at comforting people, she is very wooden most of the time, and she doesn't say anything.
"It's okay, what can I do!" Lan Xiang stalked her neck, her head tilted to one side, and tears slipped down her eyes.
"Don't blame the county lord for being troublesome, she's for your good."
"For my good? The county lord obviously knew that I was in love with Lin Gongzi, but she kept blocking it, and the princess didn't let me accompany me to the academy, how can I say that it is for my good! β
It's okay not to say it, but Lanxiang also feels angry when she says it.
