Chapter 350: The Cause of Illness
Usually eat it at night, the fruit must be accompanied to the end, tonight I only ate half of what Li Qingchi handed over, the pink long tongue licked the corner of her mouth, bit her sleeve, and her paws couldn't stop patting the edge of the white porcelain dish.
Li Qingchi was so frightened that he grabbed the two paws of the fruit, glared and raised his eyebrows, "shhhhhhh
"I only want to eat when I'm hungry, and if they take it, I'll starve to death."
The fruit stuck out his tongue, his paws crooked and nodded at the table, Li Qingchi laughed quietly, "It turns out that you made me remember and honey, but it scared me to death." ”
Recently, the sister-in-law who has just passed through the door has been busy cleaning up the old people in her brother's yard, and she can't spare time to talk and embroider with Li Qingchi. Cousin Ruan Miaoling is also married and can't see each other every day, but fortunately, when she got married, things were complicated and she didn't have time to take care of the fruit, so she was fostered here, so she had a pastime.
After playing for several days in a row, Li Qingchi often shouted at her throat to hide from her, and spoke in a dumb voice.
The mother-in-law and maids in the courtyard did not dare to take her to the princess, for fear of being cured of a crime of poor care, so they mixed honey water for her to drink every day, just hoping to raise her throat back.
"Since you want to take care of your throat, Miss can't stare at those pastries and fried lotus roots, it's not good to scratch your throat."
The nurse and maid in her room all said so, and once they decided to do something, they acted vigorously.
But Li Qingchi is bitter, he only drinks thick porridge when he gets up in the morning, and he can only eat red beans ground into powder filling, and he is not allowed to touch the tofu grains and the stuffing of minced green vegetables.
Lunch and dinner are very rich, or soup and water, the rice should be soft and rotten, and the hard ones are not eaten, and I am still afraid that the rice grains will hurt my throat.
Although only the fruit was by his side, Li Qingchi didn't dare to eat more, so he ate two more with honey, stuffed the saucer and the rest of the osmanthus cake into a round bamboo box, and hid it under the bed.
"Hah...... fruit, I can't sleep, what should I do? ”
Other children are sleepy after eating, Li Qingchi is not sleepy at the moment, so he touched the window with his shoes, gently pushed open the small window, and the milky white moonlight outside shone into the house.
There was a white spot on the girdle and belly of the fruit.
Li Qingchi leaned on the windowsill with his chin on his pillow, listening to the chirping of gnats in the grass in the courtyard, he covered his mouth and laughed twice, looking at the moon in a daze.
The fruit flicked its tail and spun around the ground twice, Li Qingchi still didn't mean to sleep, it bit the mattress she slept on and rested it at her feet, curled up, and its belly bulged for a while.
A dog can let thieves approach, but those with short arms and short legs can't serve people, Li Qingchi lay on the window all night, wearing the middle coat that the maid changed into before going to bed, and the shoes were half-worn and hung on the bark.
The wind blew at night, and the feet of the body were cold, and the nurse came in early the next morning to see this situation, first she was dumbfounded, and the back of her hand probed Li Qingchi's forehead, and shouted "ancestor" in a lost voice, which alarmed the maid who was sweeping in the courtyard.
Soon the maid who was keeping vigil came, and the nurse first scolded her with a tiger face, and then told no one to say anything outside, and secretly took two taels of silver from Li Qingchi's makeup box and asked the maid to ask for a doctor.
"Nurse, there is a doctor in the palace......"
The nurse bent her fingers and knocked on the maid: "I have eaten more in the palace than you have walked, can you not know that there is a doctor at home?" You don't want to think about who I'm for, if the princess and the princess know that you are derelict in your duties, can the palace have a place for you to settle down? ”
The maid was holding two taels of silver, anxious, and her face was as white as white porcelain that had just come out of the kiln.
"How many old people in the palace have the princess rectified these days, haven't you seen at least heard others say it, I see that the princess is a very methodistic, and I love our young lady......"
"Thank you nurse for saving me!" The maid knelt down and kowtowed, and pushed two taels of silver to the nurse: "Miss's body is silver, I can't touch it, I have some savings in the past few years, and I can pay it myself." ”
The nurse grabbed it and said in a deep voice: "You are also responsible, go and ask the doctor, this disease will be more dangerous if it is delayed for a moment." ”
She didn't put the silver back in the makeup box, and stuffed it into her sleeve.
"Nurse ......"
Li Qingchi was carried back to bed by the nurse and went to sleep, and woke up in a cold sweat.
"My young lady, why don't you call the maid when you get up at night, look at the weight loss."
Wringing the handkerchief, the nurse wiped the sweat off Li Qingchi's forehead and limbs, and heard her asking, "Nurse, am I sick?" Why didn't my father and brother, as well as my mother and sister-in-law, come to see me? ”
The nurse smiled and touched Li Qingchi's wet broken hair, her expression was soft like a puddle of water.
"Miss is not sick, but she has been hungry for the past few days, I don't believe Miss listen, her voice is good?"
Thanks to the strict supervision for several days, and the wind blowing last night, the young lady's throat was confused, and the nurse chanted Buddha in her mouth, and brought all kinds of snacks from the kitchen to Li Qingchi's eyes.
"Miss, look at how beautiful these snacks are, and when you get some sleep, you can eat them."
Li Qingchi really felt that she was sick and couldn't use her hands and feet, but the nurse said that there was no such thing at all, and she didn't know whether to believe herself or someone else.
The nurse has been with her since she was a child, and she is closer than the maids in the house, so she will not be able to deceive her.
"Where's the fruit?"
"That's the ...... Miss said fruit, I think I went outside to play, Miss slept enough, and it came back to play with Miss, okay? The nurse coaxed softly, and her eyes couldn't stop looking at the sprinkler who was sticking out her head outside.
……
In the flower hall, Chengping Wang Zheng and Xu Yuan talked about the Chen family's father and son, but they were still at a loss.
Chen Liangyu sat down, twisting his beard and not knowing what he was thinking, when something soft jumped under his feet, pulling his thoughts back.
"Wow!"
The fruit climbed onto Xu Yuan's knees, and his paws scratched his clothes.
"The fruit has grown strong!"
It was kept in the backyard, and it was in Li Qingchi, and King Chengping was busy with other things recently, and he saw his daughter less often, and he didn't notice the change in the fruit.
I saw it now, but I remembered my niece.
"Miaoling and my sister are leaving, and I don't know where they are today......" He had a worried look on his face, but he was only worried that they would be well fed and used to living on the road.
Chen Liangyu said with a smile: "The prince can rest assured, although the princess used to pass by, although there is now a third lady by his side, it is difficult for the princess." ”
As the three of them spoke, they quickly brushed the fruit aside and ignored it.
Guozi was a little angry, desperately biting Xu Yuan's sleeve, and wanted to go out.
"If you want to go home, you don't have to be in such a hurry, besides, you want to leave, don't you say hello to Qingchi?" Xu Yuan tugged at its two ears and grabbed it in his arms and imprisoned it.
Chen Liangyu stared at the fruit for a while, and suddenly said, "Aunt Xu, is it going to take you somewhere?" ”
