486, relatives
"Tenth Sister will only make her relatives and enemies happy, when will she understand this truth?"
Xu Shu couldn't figure out why Zheng Wanfeng was making such a fuss? Did she think she was still a baby, and that she would have milk whenever she cried? That's naΓ―ve! The world of adults is much more complicated!
"I don't expect her to figure it out!" Mrs. Zheng shook her head in disappointment, "Now that she is like this, it won't work for you to reason with her, so I stopped you, and she will listen to whatever you tell her, so why waste so much energy?" It's good to let her know that this is not possible, and when it doesn't make sense, you can only use forcible means, let her know that she can't fight, so she can only accept her fate! β
Listening to Mrs. Zheng Si's meaning, it seems that she intends to wait for Zheng Wanfeng to calm down before explaining to her, which shows that Mrs. Zheng Si has not completely given up on Zheng Wanfeng.
But the words that are said are like water spilled out, which cannot be recovered, and if the words that are sharper than a knife pierce the heart, they will be bloody holes one by one, even if the injury is healed, but the scar is still there.
"That's it! You should also go back and rest, you are tired for the past two days, and you can finally rest in peace for two days! β
Second Mrs. Zheng has been silent for a while after this incident, Zheng Wanfeng has no chance to make trouble for the time being, Xu Shu can indeed breathe a sigh of relief, thinking of this, Xu Shu can't help but feel relieved, the Zheng family is really much more complicated than the Xu family, she didn't dare to relax her vigilance for a moment, and suddenly relaxed at this moment, she actually gave birth to a trace of unrealistic feelings, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Early the next morning, Yinzhi inquired about the old lady's handling of Jiangxue's death.
"It was said that Jiang Xue and Bai Shuang quarreled, Jiang Xue was angry and threw herself into the well and died, the old lady thought that Bai Shuang had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and wanted to send her out to marry, just when Aunt Zhang came to beg, the old lady agreed!"
Bai Shuang didn't want to be married to the stupid son of the Zhang family by Second Mrs. Zheng, so she went to harm Jiang Xue, but she didn't expect that in the end she still couldn't dodge, or the old lady did it deliberately, so that Bai Shuang's life was worse than death.
"What about the second lady?" Xu Shu asked.
"The old lady asked the thrush sister to check Miss Eight's dowry, but it turned out that Miss Eight's dowry was deducted by the second lady more than half, and the old lady got angry and grounded the second lady!"
"But the old lady didn't say anything, asking the second lady to make up for the dowry of the eighth lady who was deducted, right?"
Yinzhi was stunned and nodded, "This ...... I really haven't heard anyone say it......"
Zheng Wanxia played tricks in front of the old lady, in the end she was still too immature, the old lady didn't like her bad heart, but she had to take care of her dignity to be married, so she endured it with one eye and closed one eye, but also withheld her dowry as a punishment, Zheng Wanxia was a failure in her calculation.
Xu Shu yawned, and felt sleepy again, after taking the new medicine given by Mr. Qin yesterday, there was no discomfort next to her, but she was extremely sleepy, which made Xu Shu sleep until dawn all night, and in the morning, Yuzhu and Yinzhi took turns to fight and almost didn't wake her up, so she was sleepy again after breakfast.
"Miss, are you sleepy again?" Yinzhi looked suspiciously at Xu Shu, who yawned three or four times after a while, "You slept a lot last night, didn't you?" β
Xu Shu couldn't suppress her sleepiness, and walked crookedly to the bedside, "I'll sleep for a while...... Sleep a little more...... You don't need to call me ......" Xu Shu fell on the bed, and fell asleep again before she even had time to take off her coat.
Yinzhi felt that something was wrong, and after thinking for a while, she went to tell Mrs. Zheng Si, "Although the slave maid has only served Miss Nine for a few days, but Miss Nine is usually so clever and alone, but now she is as sleepy as a child, and she can't wake up when she sleeps!" The slave maid always felt that something was wrong, even Yuzhu only said that she had never seen Miss Nine so sleepy! β
Mrs. Zheng didn't know what Xu Shu's situation was in the palace before, but judging from what happened in the Zheng family in the past two days, Xu Shu had a hard time, and Mrs. Zheng Si thought, "Didn't you get tired a few days ago?" I couldn't help but feel a little guilty in my heart, if it weren't for her grievances with Second Mrs. Zheng, Second Mrs. Zheng would not be angry with Xu Shu, so tired that Xu Shu couldn't be at peace, so she said, "It's okay, I'm thinking about finding a doctor for her to take a look at and prescribe a few pairs of medicines to condition her body, so people will invite the doctor over!" β
Seeing this, Yinzhi also returned to the east wing to guard Xu Shu, Yuzhu was doing needlework in the outhouse, and when she saw Yinzhi coming back, she asked, "You told the fourth lady?" β
Yinzhi nodded, "Madam has already ordered someone to invite the imperial doctor, and the imperial doctor should come in a while!" β
"Then I'll go and tell the kitchen to prepare hot water, and I'll serve the young lady to wash her face later, and you can guard it for me!" Yuzhu put down the sewing basket and went to the kitchen.
Yinzhi quietly entered the inner room and lifted the curtain, but Xu Shu didn't notice it, she still slept sweetly, it wasn't like this the day before, just like ...... It's like hitting an evil spirit!
Yinzhi suddenly thought of Xu Shu's pretending to be Jiangxue's voice last night, didn't Miss Nine really be haunted by Jiangxue's ghost? But there's nothing wrong with Miss Nine except for drowsiness? It's not like being caught in a nightmare......
Yinzhi thought about it for a while and finally didn't come up with a reason, Qia Yuzhu came back again, and seeing Yuzhu's face as usual, she couldn't help but tell, "Miss Nine is like this, aren't you worried?" β
Yuzhu said as she threaded the needle, "What's there to worry about?" If you sleep well, your spirit will be good, and it's better to sleep more than not to sleep at all, right? β
Yinzhi was speechless, looking at Yuzhu's indifferent appearance, and couldn't help but wonder if she was thinking too much.
Xu Shu slept until the imperial doctor came, Yuzhu and Yinzhi had to call her up again, Xu Shu yawned and was dressed and changed by Yuzhu Yinzhi and the others, Mrs. Zheng Si also felt extremely puzzled when she watched from the side, Xu Shu was still in good spirits last night, this night has passed, why is it so sluggish?
Xu Shu handed his wrist to the imperial doctor through the curtain, and Yinzhi hurriedly spread the handkerchief on Xu Shu's wrist and covered Xu Shu's exposed hand. The imperial physician put Xu Shu's wrist through the handkerchief, and after a while, he withdrew it, twisting his beard and pondering.
Mrs. Zheng Si asked worriedly, "Imperial Doctor, what's wrong with my daughter?" β
Seeing that Mrs. Zheng's tone was a little nervous, the imperial doctor hurriedly reassured, "Madame, don't worry, Ling Ai is not in a big way, but there is a lack of qi and blood, and the spleen and stomach are not in balance, so it will be fine if you prescribe two doses of decoction and eat it!" β
Mrs. Zheng Si asked, "Then why is she so sleepy?" β
The Taiyi said, "Qi and blood are deficient, the body can't stand it, you need to sleep more to nourish your blood, take medicine, and your qi and blood will naturally be full!" β
Mrs. Zheng Si nodded, because she had long felt that Xu Shu was weak, so she also thought that what the imperial doctor said was reasonable, and she was busy leading the imperial doctor to prescribe prescriptions.
Xu Shu listened to the serious nonsense of the imperial doctor, only pouted in her heart, but she didn't bother to poke him, covered her mouth and yawned, and slept on the couch.
