Chapter 177: Rare Tenderness
He had been sleeping for two days and two nights, with a high fever that did not go away, and I waited for him until the third day, when it improved slightly, and the wound showed signs of scabbing.
When I came to the hall, the back of my head was dizzy, and after sitting down, I felt a wave of nausea accompanied by fatigue.
Red Sleeves has not talked about any topics related to the life of Liangxi and Beiyu Jinchen since that night, and has returned to his usual demure appearance, although I am anxious to know more details, but I really can't rush it, so we tacitly get along as usual.
There are some desserts on the table, hibiscus cake made of milk and glutinous flour, or Huainan orange orange in early autumn, which is as round and gratifying as gold and jade. I grabbed an orange and peeled off the surface, the fragrance of orange was slightly flushing, and suddenly I lost my appetite, and I endured the nausea and dizziness that flowed up, but finally I couldn't hold back, and I retched for a while, so I wanted to vomit my heart and lungs.
Red Sleeves was followed by two little maids and an old mother, stood respectfully, handed me a silk handkerchief to wipe it, then poured a cup of mouthwash tea, and said: "The joy is so great, I'm afraid it won't work if you don't eat." ”
I pointed to the person behind her and asked, "Look at Miansheng, where did you come from?" ”
Red Sleeves replied unhurriedly: "Red Sleeves has found a few people to take care of the girl, the prince is seriously injured, you also need to take care of it here, it is a good thing to have a few more people." Especially this Mama Cui, who has taken care of many pregnant nobles before, is quite experienced. ”
"Slave Ah Xiu, slave Ah Rou, I have seen the young lady." The two maidservants saluted in good spirits and were decent.
"What young lady." I rubbed my eyebrows irritably, "Just call me Miss Jin." ”
Seeing that I was in a bad mood, Red Sleeves sent the two maidservants out, bowed his head and asked, "What do you want to eat?" I hired a cook today. ”
I thought about it in my mind for a long time, and all the dishes that popped up were Sichuan-Chongqing spicy dishes, and I felt very appetizing when I thought about it. "I want something spicy."
"It's not going to work." She picked up the orange peel and put it into the waste paper basket, "Pregnant people should avoid spicy, you ate half a plate of fresh hawthorn this morning, it is too stimulating to the stomach." ”
I listened upset, and waved my hand to signal her to arrange it at will.
As if she had thought of something, Mama Cui's eyes lit up, and she grabbed the sleeve of the red sleeve and said: "There is a folk saying, sour and spicy girls, looking at Miss Jin like this, nine times out of ten they are dragon and phoenix fetuses. ”
"Did I make you talk too much?" Interrupting her words in a cold voice, angry for no reason, I don't want to care too much about this child in my belly, at best it's just a bargaining chip.
Mama Cui was silent, bowed her head and stood outside, and the hall was suddenly a lot quieter.
It just so happened that Beiyu Jinchen's medicine had been boiled, and the red sleeves were handed over to me, and he said, "The prince must want to see the girl the most when he wakes up, and he is tired of the girl." ”
If it had been placed before, I would have refused, but after the words of the red sleeves that day, I had to think about it again, and there were some things that I needed to ask him in person.
Walking into the side pavilion hut, he was still asleep, one hand on the edge of the bed, the fingers were slender and white, and the clean and neat nails were light pink, just looking at the back of the hand, he couldn't notice that he was a person who practiced martial arts all year round.
I sat on the side, and was about to put his hand back under the covers, when the man woke up.
"Awake?" I blew the hot air from the bowl, scooped a spoonful and brought it to his mouth, "Drink the medicine when you wake up." ”
He obediently opened his mouth and swallowed the medicinal juice, the medicine was bitter, and the bitter taste couldn't help but make him frown slightly.
I scooped another spoonful, and he looked at me and smiled lightly, his voice tinged with the special laziness of waking up. "Your affection makes people wonder if it's poison."
I wanted to ask him the cause of the wound on his thumb, but when the words came to his mouth, he grabbed the conversation again, and he was angry for a while, and after several rounds, he finally couldn't say it.
Beiyu Jinchen sat up straight, took the medicine bowl, drank it all, the bedding on his body was scattered on the bed, and the white bedclothes were slightly open, revealing a strong chest and a wound wrapped in gauze, and it could be seen that the recovery was not bad.
When he finished drinking, I handed over a silk handkerchief, which was filled with a few fresh hawthorns left in the morning, bright red and lovely, and the best antidote to bitterness.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "In the past, it was candied fruit to relieve suffering, and it was the first time I saw hawthorn." ”
I was angry with him: "I have leftovers in the morning." ”
He didn't hear it, took a bite, and was immediately so sour that he frowned, and he couldn't eat it anymore. "You have to eat less, Red Sleeves said, something too exciting is not good for you and the child." After a pause, he leaned forward and closed the distance between us. "When I was a child, I heard the palace people say that when the mother concubine was pregnant with Haoxuan, she reacted very badly, and she couldn't eat all day long, what about you, are you better?"
He carefully placed his palm on my lower abdomen and stroked it, as if he wanted to feel the vitality of this little life.
Hao Xuan is the name of King Ling Ran, and when I thought of Ruxue again, I couldn't help but feel a sour nose and almost cry.
He was so close to me that I instinctively tried to dodge, but my eyes touched the burn on his back, and finally I waited quietly.
"Why do you say that?" I asked him.
He smiled, the corners of his lips curled just right, and his eyes were as pure as water. "Haoxuan has been active since he was a child, and I like to be quiet, but when others say that my mother is pregnant with me, she is very quiet, so I thought, this child should be like this."
When I saw his white jade wrench, my heart moved slightly, and I replied: "On the contrary, it's very noisy, I'm afraid it's a short-tempered girl." ”
He didn't expect me to answer, he was stunned for a moment, and then a smile spread into his eyes.
At this time, the red sleeves came in, holding the clean gauze for changing the dressing, and after the dressing, the sun was already setting in the west, the warm sun was projected into the window, and the breeze rolled up the veil layer by layer.
A set of light blue Su shirts was placed on the low stool, and he slowly put it on, his wide sleeves were overflowing with lustre, and the silhouette that was even thinner and deeper due to his injury gave him an impenetrable fairy aura.
"Tomorrow is your birthday." He stood against the light, the afterglow falling behind him, turning into a hazy silhouette.
Tomorrow...... Tomorrow is the Begging Day, and I did almost forget my birthday. Suddenly, my heart sank.
Since my mother married into Liufu, in order not to clash with my sisters, they deliberately changed my birthday, claiming that it was the beginning of August. And only the old department and the people of Liangxi know that Dexin Emperor Ji is the birthday of the seventh begging festival in the first month of July!
"Yes, in the blink of an eye, another year has passed." I digressed from the subject, and he didn't seem to realize what he had said wrong.
He walked over, and the excess medicinal taste on his body was soft and the fragrance of light tea, more like a demagogic power. That gaze rested on the tassel pendant around my waist, and froze slightly.
The tassel was given to Su Yanqing by me, and now I wear it close to me to remind myself to always remember what I have experienced and the rescue mission to be completed.
He reached out and rubbed my hair and said softly, "I'll take you to see them tomorrow." ”
This is undoubtedly the best birthday present, and I suppressed my excitement and responded, "Okay." ”
