Chapter 8 Please enter the urn
Imperial Physician Lu came to the mansion every day to diagnose Bai Jing's pulse, following the orders of His Royal Highness Taisun.
Pin Meixuan became a hot place for a while, and everyone flocked to it to please him.
In contrast, Bai Jinyao's Orchid Garden was much more deserted.
Qin Rou was nervous about her daughter, sat on the edge of the bed and fed the medicine herself, seeing that she was sullen, she said with a gentle voice: "A-Yao, what are you talking about with those shallow-eyed things?" They thought that the old lady would be able to change the sky in this house after looking at the girl twice, and it was ridiculous to run to flatter Bai Jinghao. ”
"Mother, where is the grandmother looking at her more, it's His Royal Highness the grandson! His Royal Highness sent people to see her every day, not to mention, but also to send treasures and palace dishes, so what am I? Bai Jinyao's tone was aggrieved, and her eyes were full of resentment.
Qin Rou's face was not stunned or angry, and she replied calmly: "What about His Royal Highness?" But how can any man not covet beauty, that girl deliberately seduces him with a gesture, and it is normal for His Royal Highness Taisun to be confused when he is young. Ah Yao, you are the eldest lady of the Bai family, and you have the grandfather of the Hou Mansion of Zongyu, what does she have in Bai Jinghao? ”
Bai Jinyao said angrily: "She has a face!" ”
Qin Rou was choked by her daughter.
"Mother, haven't you noticed, she is different from before, she has become beautiful."
Thinking that Bai Jinghao was naturally beautiful, and she was dressed brightly, and she no longer saw her former gray face, Bai Jinyao was extremely jealous.
Qin Rou sneered, "Since ancient times, how many beautiful women have had a good end, isn't her mother an example?" ”
Bai Jinyao muttered and repeated: "Her mother ......"
Seeing her mother's ridicule, she had to remind: "But my father hasn't forgotten that woman all these years, didn't you say that Aunt Yu was just because she looked like Bai Jinghao's mother-in-law, so she was able to get her father's favor for more than ten years?" ”
This is really a pot that can't be opened, Qin Rou thought that her husband had been staying in Aunt Yu's room for the past few nights, and she immediately couldn't hang it on her face.
Bai Jinyao was keen, and immediately shook her hand, "Mother, it's my daughter who is not good, and I made you sad." ”
Qin Rou patted her and said disdainfully: "No matter how arrogant Aunt Yu is, she is a stand-in, what waves can she make?" No matter how beautiful Bai Yu is, what if he is liked by your father, he doesn't even have a name when he dies, and he is not buried casually? ”
Speaking of this, Bai Jinyao couldn't hold back her curiosity, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, how did Mrs. Yu die in the first place?" ”
"What Lady Yu? Bai Yu and your father have been brother and sister for more than ten years, but after being kicked out of the capital, she also flattered your father and asked him to take her back, she is not afraid of being embarrassed, the Bai family can't afford to lose this person! She is in Baifu, she is not a young lady or an aunt, she has no title, what do you call Mrs. Yu? Qin Rou's face was displeased.
Bai Jinyao hurriedly changed her words, "It's my daughter's mistake." ”
Qin Rou realized that her tone was a little harsh, and she continued slowly: "Bai Yu has been an official lady for more than ten years as your aunt, and she has been loved by the old lady and the old lady. After your aunt finds her, can you easily let her go? I don't need to do anything about it. ”
Bai Jinyao asked casually, after all, she didn't care about the grievances of the previous generation, but she was still more worried about herself and Liu Mao. She asked cautiously: "Mother, I was rescued by the guards that day, and many people saw it, and now there are rumors about my daughter outside, will the princess not like me?" ”
"How so? That's your own aunt, of course she loves you. Mother knows what you are afraid of, Bai Jinghao that girl wants to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, it is absolutely impossible! ”
Qin Rou's tone was firm, "What's more, even if His Royal Highness really likes it, the crown princess will not allow him to marry Bai Jinghao as a concubine." ”
As the mother and daughter were talking, Mother Qin came in and said, "Madam, Er Kite is here." ”
"Let her in."
Bai Jinyao was immediately dissatisfied, "This maid is useless, I was pulled into the water by Bai Jinghao and suffered, why does my mother still keep her?" ”
Qin Rou talked about the situation that day again, and finally concluded: "Although she did not do well, after all, there was a reason for it. Bai Jing is grateful that she saved her life, and now she trusts Er Kite very much, and it is convenient for her to do things in Pinmei Xuan. ”
"What does my mother want her to do?"
As soon as Bai Jinyao finished asking, Er Kite came in with Qin's mother.
She saluted the two respectfully, and then looked mysteriously left and right, cautiously speaking.
The house was full of their mother and daughter's cronies, and Bai Jinyao said impatiently: "Tell me something quickly." ”
"Back to the eldest lady and the second miss, the slave maid just found out that Imperial Doctor Lu quietly stuffed a letter to the eldest lady before leaving."
"What letter, but it was written by His Highness?" Bai Jinyao sat up excitedly and looked at Er Kite in surprise.
Er Kite replied in a low voice: "The letter is indeed written by His Royal Highness Taisun, the eldest lady is cautious, and after reading it, let the slave maid bring a brazier to burn the letter." ”
"What's on that letter?"
"The letter said that His Royal Highness misses the eldest lady very much, and asked her to meet in front of the Yuelao Temple at the beginning of the first day of the Chinese Valentine's Day."
Bai Jinyao was furious and scolded: "Fox goblin! ”
Qin Rou hurriedly grabbed her and called "Ah Yao" in a deep voice, reminding her to pay attention to her demeanor.
Bai Jinyao gritted her teeth, barely holding back the anger in her heart.
"The slave maid thinks that the matter is serious, so she has come to report to Madame."
Qin Rou nodded, "You did a good job, the eldest lady didn't suspect you, right?" ”
Er Yuan shook her head, "Although the eldest lady used to be afraid that I was sent by my wife, but I saved her that day, and now I have great trust in the slave maid. ”
Qin Rou asked for a long time: "You told me before that the eldest lady was going to pay tribute to her mother in private on the seventh night of the new year, but now that His Royal Highness the Taisun has invited her, do you know how she is going?" ”
Er Kite replied with a flattering smile: "Mrs. Hui, the eldest lady said that she has been wronged in the mansion for so many years, and finally His Royal Highness the Grand Sun likes her, so naturally she must seize the opportunity not to lose His Highness's favor, and she also discussed with the slave maid how to sneak out of the mansion." ”
Qin Rou laughed, "Then she is not going to pay tribute to her mother?" ”
"The eldest lady said that His Royal Highness is important."
Qin Rou's sarcasm was even stronger, but she didn't show it in front of Er Kite, and only replied: "You did a good job in this matter, since she wants to meet a lover, then I, as a mother-in-law, naturally want to help her." Erkite, you go and tell the eldest lady that Mrs. Liang, who is guarding the back door, has been taken care of by you, and as long as you stuff some silver on the night of Qixi Festival, you will let her out.
Also, tomorrow, after you send Imperial Doctor Lu away, go back and tell the eldest lady, just say that His Royal Highness Taisun thinks that there are many people in Yuelao Temple, and he is afraid that he will be bumped into by acquaintances and mistake her reputation, so he will go to Fumen Restaurant instead. When the time comes, you will take her through the back door of the restaurant, do you understand? ”
Er Kite should be immediately.
Qin Rou then glanced at her cronies, and gave her a reward of silver before she stepped down.
"Mother, your trick is so wonderful. Fumen Restaurant is your private property, as long as she arrives in Fumen, I can avenge the revenge in the lotus pond. Bai Jinyao finally smiled, looking forward to it.
"Mother told you a long time ago that the girl was restless, and she wanted to climb on the high branch to take revenge on us, but she didn't know that the higher she climbed, the worse she fell. Regardless of whether she deliberately pulled your dress in the lotus pond to prevent you from coming out of the water to call for help, or how His Royal Highness Taisun valued her recently and fell in love with her, after the Chinese Valentine's Day, I see who will want her! Qin Rou's face was ruthless.
Bai Jinyao was curious, "Mother, what are you going to do?" ”
"She is your father's daughter in the end, the old lady has also been waiting to see her recently, and she has been allowed to go to Hanyu Hall every day to ask for peace to speak, and your second aunt's slut helps to speak for her, if she dies, I am afraid she will be investigated."
Qin Rou thought about it seriously, and suddenly smiled: "Isn't she boasting of her beauty, the street is lively on Qixi Festival, it is not a glorious thing for the young girl to sneak out of the house restlessly, if there is any scandal, the old lady will be too late to dislike her, no one will care if she is innocent or not, everything is her own fault." ”
Bai Jinyao understood and knew that her mother had always done things safely, and Bai Jinghao would be ruined after Qixi Festival, and she was no longer a threat to herself. So, she climbed to the other party and coquettishly said: "Mother, wait for the night of Qixi Festival when my daughter wants to go out to see the lanterns." ”
Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, of course Qin Rou knew where she was going, and said with her head bowed: "Go, the daughter's day is lively, then Japan will not restrict your activities." ”
Bai Jinyao was overjoyed.
