Chapter 14: The Second Lady
"Palet, come and sit." The old lady patted the place next to her bed, she never thought that her granddaughter, whom she had always disliked, would care about her the most.
Don't mention the matter of this herb, just talk about this matter of drinking medicine, no grandson will ever consider the problem of medicine bitterness.
"Grandmother." When Palet heard the old lady say this, she knelt on the ground with a "poof", and then looked at the old lady tremblingly.
The old lady looked at Palet very curiously, "Palet, what's wrong, don't want to sit on my wife's bed?" "Could it be that palet is disgusting herself? Thinking of this, the old lady's face became very ugly.
Hearing the old lady's question, Palet quickly shook her head, "Grandmother, how can Palet dislike you if she can't love you?" ”
"In that case, why don't you want to come?" Listening not to disgust, the old lady's face was a little better.
"Grandmother, my mother said that there is a difference between dignity and inferiority, and I am not worthy to sit in your bed grandmother." Palet lowered her head and looked back at the old lady lonely.
When the old lady heard this, she was angry, this Xu Mei really thought that there was no one in this house? A dignified lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion was bullied like this by her!
"Forsythia, help your young lady up, help your young lady over." The old lady made a decision in her heart, she had to clean up Xu Mei today.
"Old lady, young lady brought here." Liu Lu took Xu Mei into the room, Xu Mei didn't know what was going on, she heard rumors from Yin Yin that it was Palet that the dead girl was going to kill the old lady, she thought that the old lady was asking her to punish Palet.
Who knows, she entered the old lady's room with Liu Lu, but found that palet was sitting next to the old lady's bed, and at this moment, a thousand possibilities appeared in her heart.
"Mother~" Xu Mei called out to the old lady delicately, and then bowed gently, but her eyes were all on palet's body.
Palet knew that Xu Mei was looking at her, and when she put it in the past, the original owner had already lost her face with fright.
Xu Mei looked at the palet with a calm expression, there were thousands of possibilities in her heart, none of them could be determined, Xu Mei was a little anxious, her eyes were on the old lady, and she found that the old lady was looking at her seriously.
The two looked at each other, and the old lady snorted coldly, "Xu Mei, how do you usually take care of our eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”
Hearing this, Xu Mei's heart was sure that this dead girl dared to sue the old lady to see if she didn't peel off a layer of her skin.
"If I go back to my mother, I do my best to take care of the eldest lady on weekdays, and take care of her as my own daughter, but it's a pity that it's ......" Xu Mei said this, glanced at palet sadly, and then continued, "It's a pity that the eldest lady doesn't appreciate it." ”
"How can you not appreciate it?" The meaning of what Xu Mei said was completely opposite to the meaning that Palet had just expressed, but fortunately, the old lady was neither blind nor deaf.
"A few days ago, I invited my grandmother to teach Yin Yin the rules, I thought that palet is going to enter the palace in the future, so follow the rules, who knows, palet is unwilling to learn, the child is unwilling, and I am not reluctant to be a mother, who knows, this child actually collided with the emperor and lost a good marriage in vain." After Xu Mei said this, she pretended to look at the palet coldly.
She knew that the old lady was very angry with the emperor, so she deliberately brought it up and asked the old lady to beat and scold the palet.
After hearing this, the old lady's face was really ugly, and the palet, who had been observing the old lady's expression, quickly got up from the side of the bed, knelt at the old lady's feet, and cried aggrieved and blamed herself, "Grandmother, this matter is all to blame for the granddaughter, if it weren't for the granddaughter being bedridden, she would definitely learn the rules well, and the granddaughter is blamed for her weak body and fainting in front of the emperor." ”
When the old lady heard Palet's explanation, her face recovered, she looked at Palet kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Is there a reason for this weak body?" ”
Palet listened to the old lady's question, glanced at Xu Mei with some fear, and then shook her head vigorously.
Xu Mei looked at the palet like this, and the feeling of being high in her heart suddenly recovered, she thought that this dead girl had changed, but she didn't expect it to be just a paper tiger.
The old lady looked at Xu Mei's appearance and shook her head, how could such a person be the housewife, "Xu Mei, is there a reason why Palet is weak?" "Mother, don't you all listen to this death...... The eldest lady said it, there is no reason. Xu Mei was so proud that she almost missed her words.
"No reason? Liu Lu, go and invite the doctor in the house. "Well, there is no reason, where in this world is there anyone who was good before and then weak for no reason?
"Yes, old lady." Willow Green nodded in agreement.
Xu Mei saw that the old lady was going to ask for a doctor, she was a little panicked in her heart, "Mother, you don't need to ask for a doctor, I'll go back and ask Mama to make some meals for the eldest lady, palet, you child is not allowed to be picky eaters in the future." Xu Mei said, glancing lovingly at the palet.
Palet was covered with goosebumps by her eyes, this doctor must come today, Palet rolled her eyes, and the whole person fell on the side of the old lady's bed.
"Miss, Miss......" Forsythia was frightened and couldn't care about etiquette, and knelt directly beside Palet, shouting Palet in fear.
The old lady looked at this scene and said to Liu Lu in a very cold tone, "Liu Lu, why don't you go and invite the doctor to come, who are you listening to?" ”
Liu Lu listened to the old lady's words, trotted out of the door, and complained about Xu Mei in her heart.
The doctor came soon, and the faint palet was not worried at all, there were a lot of problems with this body.
The doctor finished taking the pulse and sighed, the old lady looked at the doctor and sighed, and the anger in her heart suddenly reached the verge of erupting, "Doctor, what's wrong with my granddaughter?" ”
"Old lady, the eldest lady's body is particularly ......" The doctor methodically said the diseases of the palet's body one by one, and the old lady's anger erupted at once, "Xu Mei, you kneel down for me!" ”
Xu Mei looked at the maid and the doctor in the room and looked at herself, she couldn't kneel on this leg, and there would definitely be redness and swelling on this kneeling leg, Xiangye liked her white and tender skin the most, if it was red and swollen, Xiangye would definitely not like it.
"Xu Mei!" The old lady saw that Xu Mei didn't take her words to heart, got up and got off the bed angrily, and came directly to Xu Mei, "Are you kneeling today?" ”
Xu Mei had never seen such an angry old lady, she reluctantly knelt on the ground, "Mother, you let me kneel, how dare I not kneel, mother, don't be angry." ”
The old lady looked at Xu Mei's attitude, and made a decision in her heart, "Liu Lu, go and invite the second lady over." ”
As soon as Xu Mei heard that she was going to invite her nemesis, her whole body suddenly tensed, and at this time, she realized the seriousness of the matter, "Mother, don't be angry, I ......"
"Forsythia, you take the doctor out to fry the medicine." The old lady didn't pay attention to Xu Mei at all, she directly interrupted Xu Mei's words.
The second lady was soon brought in, and as soon as she entered the door, she respectfully saluted the old lady, "Mother, what are you looking for me?" ”
"Qinglian, from today onwards, palet will be your daughter, and you will be responsible for palet's food, clothing, and housing in the future." This second lady does things in a decent manner, she is the daughter of a four-grade official, she is kind, and it is best for her to be in charge of Palet's life in the future.
The second lady Qinglian was a little surprised, she glanced at Xu Mei who was kneeling on the ground and nodded, "Mother, Qinglian should go." ”
"Okay, our prime minister just needs a good daughter-in-law like Qinglian, this is a bracelet I have worn for many years, and I will give it to you today." The old lady took off the bracelet on her hand as she spoke, and the second lady Qinglian looked at the old lady in surprise.
Such a precious thing, the old lady gave it to her so easily today? The second lady was happy in her heart, and in her mind, this palet was her auspiciousness.
"Thank you, old lady." The second lady, Qinglian, thanked the old lady, took the bracelet, and put it on her own wrist, which was just right.
Xu Meiqi's teeth itched on the ground, she stared at the palet lying on the bed, she was not finished with this dead girl from today on.
On Imperial Doctor Zhang's side, he was talking about palet in the emperor's imperial study at this time.
The more Jing Zhan listened to this, the tighter his brows wrinkled, that cheeky girl could really heal.
Imperial Doctor Zhang looked at Jing Zhan's expression and wondered in his heart, no, this is a good thing, why does the emperor listen to the expression on his face worse the more he listens.
The more Imperial Doctor Zhang talked, the more suspenseful he became, the quieter his voice became, and he stopped talking.
Jing Zhan raised his eyebrows and looked at Imperial Doctor Zhang, listening to Imperial Doctor Zhang's tone just now, it didn't look like he was finished, why didn't he talk about it? "Imperial Doctor Zhang, is this matter finished?"
Imperial Doctor Zhang looked at Jing Zhan's expression and shook his head, "Back to the emperor's words, there are still some that I haven't finished." ”
"Since I haven't finished speaking, Aiqing will continue to talk." Jing Zhan's tone and expression when he said this were quite normal, Imperial Doctor Zhang thought about it for a while, and then continued.
Jing Zhan looked at the excited little old man in front of him, and touched the red place on his face, Imperial Doctor Zhang is an imperial doctor with extremely high medical skills in the palace, and he can make Imperial Doctor Zhang so excited, this palet is definitely not simple, perhaps, the disease on his face, she can really cure it.
Jing Zhan waited for Imperial Doctor Zhang to finish speaking, and asked casually, "Aiqing, are you short of apprentices now?" ”
Imperial Doctor Zhang looked at Jing Zhan in confusion, why did the emperor suddenly ask him this? "There is no shortage at the moment."
"What if you let palet be your apprentice?" Jing Zhan looked at Imperial Doctor Zhang with a bit of seriousness on his face.
"That's great." Imperial Doctor Zhang looked at Jing Zhan with bright eyes, if he could have such a smart apprentice, then how interesting his future life would be.
"Okay, Aiqing, please go back, I have counted everything you said today." Jing Zhan waved his sleeves, and Imperial Doctor Zhang retreated.
