Chapter 7: Injuries
At the end of the dinner, the guests left one after another, and when Zhao Yuting returned to Furong Courtyard, it was already ugly.
Xiaoqiu is not there, she can only hold Chunyang all the way, the sleeping Chunyang is extremely heavy, and Cuicui wants to throw her away several times.
As soon as she returned to the courtyard, Cuicui handed Chunyang over to her wet nurse. She rubbed her sore arm, and before she could rest, Zhao Yuting asked her to go over and go to bed.
After a long wash, Zhao Yuting walked to the dresser, took out a delicate satin box from the drawer, opened the box, and a pure white jade bottle came into view.
Zhao Yuting took out the jade bottle and handed it to Cuicui
"Here, give me some medicine." Zhao Yuting stretched out her slightly reddened palm.
"Ah, Madame's hand, was it burned by the hot soup just now, why did Xiaoqiu ...... so carelessly?"
"Okay, come on, I'm going to sleep after the medicine." Zhao Yuting urged, Cuicui's eyes were full of ridicule, isn't it just that she was burned red, and she couldn't see it if she didn't look carefully, as for you, you are not the queen mother and princess, and you want to use good jade willow aloe vera cream.
This jade willow aloe vera ointment is a good medicine for blood coagulation, pain relief, healing, scar removal, and skin rejuvenation.
Cuicui lowered her head and quickly stepped forward to take the jade willow aloe vera cream, not letting Zhao Yuting see her eyes.
At noon, Zhao Yuting got up lazily, and after washing and eating, she found that there were only her and Cuicui in the house, and Xiaoqiu was nowhere to be seen, so she asked, "Cuicui, where is your sister Xiaoqiu?" Cuicui couldn't help sneering in her heart, this is her little sister Qiu, it's really different.
Xiaoqiu is Zhao Yuting's maid of marriage, one year older than Cuicui. But what about Cuicui? doesn't take Xiaoqiu in her eyes, first, Cuicui feels that the Taishi Mansion is her own territory, and she is not as tough as herself as an outsider.
The second is that Xiaoqiu is usually obscure, she can only work and can't speak, but Cuicui is the opposite, she can only say nice things to make Zhao Yuting happy, and it has nothing to do with her.
The superficial Zhao Yuting of course likes Cuicui, so she usually calls Cuicui
"Xiaoqiu" doesn't care about this. But after last night's incident and seeing Zhao Yuting's attitude clearly, Cuicui knew that she should call Xiaoqiu as
"Sister".
"Sister Xiaoqiu was hit with 20 boards last night, and when I went back to the house, I saw that her bandaged wound was still oozing blood, and the part where she was beaten was swollen and high. I heard that Sister Xiaoqiu fainted after hitting five boards, but isn't it, Sister Xiaoqiu is so thin, and the fifteen boards behind her are all played without her awareness. After waking up, Sister Xiaoqiu died in pain, hummed all night and didn't sleep, she fell asleep in the morning, I couldn't bear to wake her up, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of bed within seven days. Cuicui choked up as she spoke,
"Well, poor girl, what can be done? I can only blame her for accidentally knocking over the hot soup in my hand, which scared Chunyang not to mention, and burned me. Wei Tian will definitely punish her when he sees this, and he won't just forget it because she is my personal maid~
Zhao Yuting supported her head with her hand and looked helpless.
"What Madame said is that the master has always loved Madame and Miss, how can I bear to be wronged by Madame and Miss, and now I can only hope that Sister Xiaoqiu will recover as soon as possible." If Cuicui hadn't seen last night's scene with her own eyes, she would have felt that Xiaoqiu deserved it, but knowing the truth, she felt that Zhao Yuting was too good at acting.
After the incident, the owner was obviously unhappy, not because Master Taishi felt sorry for her, as Zhao Yuting said, but because Zhao Yuting ruined the atmosphere.
Besides, the bowl was broken by Zhao Yuting herself, and no one could complain.
"In the past few days, you bring all the food to Xiaoqiu's house, just let her not get out of bed, you can help her with whatever she needs, oh, yes." Zhao Yuting said and pointed to the pure white jade bottle on the dresser,
"You take this bottle of Yuliu aloe vera paste and rub it on her, although this girl has made a mistake, but after all, she has been with me for so many years, I can't bear to see her suffer, and her salary this month, you tell her, I will give it to her." I felt a lot of tightness in my chest today, so I didn't look at her. Zhao Yuting said and smoothed her chest.
"I have memorized Madame's words, and I will go." Cuicui saluted and walked away quickly. Cuicui felt that Xiaoqiu was usually silent, but she didn't expect her to hide so deeply.
This beating is worth it, although there seems to be no special benefit at present, but in Zhao Yuting's heart, she has changed from an inconspicuous slave to a loyal slave, and she has to restrain herself from now on.
Entering the house, Cuicui saw Xiaoqiu lying on the bed panting,
"Sister Xiaoqiu, what's wrong with you?" Cuicui hurriedly walked to the bed, Xiaoqiu slowly turned her head, her face was pale and weak, she opened her eyes and looked at Cuicui closed again, Cuicui rolled her eyes when she saw this. "It hurts so much~
Xiaoqiu said weakly,
"This is the jade willow aloe vera paste that Mrs. asked me to bring, I will help you wipe it later, and Mrs. asked you not to get out of bed these days, lie on the bed with peace of mind, Mrs. and Miss have me by their side." Your wife will give you your salary for this month when she says it, so don't worry. Madame is not feeling well today, and she cannot come to see you, so you can call me if you need anything. Cuicui was full of distressed tone, and Xiaoqiu opened her eyes when she heard this,
"Sister Cuicui, please thank Madame for me first, and when my injuries are healed, I will go and thank Madame in person. If you're fine, go and ask the housekeeper for painkillers first, it will hurt my heart, and I'll have Sister Lao. ”
"Sister doesn't need to be polite, this is what I should do sister, I'll go and ask the housekeeper for painkillers now." Cuicui turned around and put on a contemptuous expression, while Xiaoqiu closed her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth.
