Chapter Twenty-Seven: To Each His Heart
After Mengxi finished speaking, seeing that the old lady was silent, he instructed the maid to wash her hands, wash her hands, hand the handkerchief to Hongzhu, and came behind the old lady, first put the middle finger, index finger, and ring finger of the left hand together, and rubbed the old lady's neck, from the wind pool point to the big vertebral point, and then rubbed the palm of the palm from the old lady's neck side of the wind pool to the other side of the wind pool, repeatedly rubbing, and then gradually moving down, while moving left and right repeatedly until the big vertebral point, and then use the right thumb, index finger, The middle finger is pinched on both sides of the Fengchi acupoint, and the neck muscles are lifted from the top to the root of the neck with the holding method, and finally the empty fist is held in the hand, and the back of the head is gently knocked on the back of the old Taijun's head, and after pressing the neck, Mengxi began to massage the old Taijun's shoulder well, Tianzong, missing door, Fengchi and other acupuncture points with some special techniques, and finally used the empty fist to knock the old Taijun's back, after pressing the back, and then used the thumb to click on the acupuncture points on the arm such as Neiguan, Quchi, Jiquan, etc., all the way up, looking at people from outsiders, Mengxi was there simple kneading, kneading, knocking I don't know that it is a set of advanced modern massage techniques.
When Mengxi first started kneading, the old lady didn't care, thinking that this was the granddaughter-in-law who wanted to be filial and pleasing herself, so she didn't refuse, let her, after rubbing a few times, a burst of comfort spread to the whole body along the shoulders and neck, and felt that the arms and shoulders were a lot lighter, and gradually closed her eyes comfortably, and when Mengxi was all pressed, the old lady was already asleep, Mengxi motioned to the old lady's maid with her eyes to draw a thin blanket, and gently covered the old lady, and then looked at the grandmother, and nodded at the same time, They tiptoed to the door.
When I was about to reach the door, I heard the voice of the old lady:
"Xi'er has such skillful hands, kneading the old body comfortably, and the shoulders are also a lot lighter, have you learned before?"
The eldest grandmother and Mengxi hurriedly turned around and returned and came to the old lady's side, and Mengxi blessed the old lady and said:
"When the granddaughter-in-law is in her mother's house, the mother often feels a sore shoulder because of the housework, the granddaughter-in-law often kneades the mother, and the mother also says that it is very comfortable, the granddaughter-in-law wants to give the old lady a knead to try, it must be a lot easier, just now the granddaughter-in-law and the grandmother saw the old lady asleep, afraid of disturbing you, thinking to wait in the outhouse, I don't want the old lady to wake up so soon"
"It's not too early, you all go back first, Jun'er is not in good health, tell him to take care of himself in the hospital, don't always remember to hang on to his old body, Xi'er is also waiting for him, what is missing in the daily life, just send someone to ask your mother-in-law, don't come over after a while"
The old lady lovingly commanded Mengxi.
Mengxi was busy, said goodbye with the eldest grandmother, and led Hongzhu all the way to Xiao Xiangyuan.
When the two returned to Xiao Xiangyuan, a few little maids were waiting outside the door, gossiping, and when they saw the second grandmother coming back, a busy maid ran into the house to spread the word, opened the door for her, and Mengxi walked in with her feet raised.
Xiao Jun had already come back from the study, he was reclining on the bed, closing his eyes to recuperate, Hongyu sat on the rusty pier next to the bed and gently beat his legs, seeing Mengxi come in, Xiao Jun opened his eyes and sat up, Hongyu also got up and stood on the side.
"Grandma is in good spirits today? What was said? ”
"The old lady is in good spirits today, and she also gave her a meal in the upper room, and the concubine had breakfast there, and the old lady instructed that the second master had to raise her in the house, so he didn't have to remember her."
Mengxi blessed the second master, replied, slowly came to the desk and sat on the chair.
After sitting down, he thought about it and said again. "The old lady fell asleep a little today, and the concubine helped rub it, so I'm only coming back now."
Xiao Jun heard Mengxi say this, remembering what happened to rub his feet yesterday, she rubbed it really comfortably, let him sleep well, thinking like this, his heart softened a little, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he wanted Mengxi to rub his limbs again, and opened his mouth and said:
"Xi'er, that ......"
"Back to the second master, the second grandmother, the three aunts came to say hello to the second grandfather and the second grandmother, and now they are waiting outside the hall, do you want them to come in?"
As soon as Xiao Jun spoke, the little maid Qian'er came in to report.
"Come on, change your clothes" Xiao Jun didn't continue to speak, and turned his head to Hongyu and ordered.
Since entering the door, this second master is the first time to call her Xi'er so gently, what's the matter? But the second master didn't want to say it, and she didn't want to ask, anyway, it was a weasel who gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and it must be no good thing, Mengxi thought secretly, got up and came to the dressing mirror as usual, and asked Hongzhu to help take care of it again.
"Where are you going?" Hongzhu was combing her hair, Mengxi saw that the second master was dressed from the bronze mirror, and wanted to go out, so she asked casually.
"Didn't my aunt come over to say hello," Xiao Jun said as if he was looking at her as if he was an idiot.
It turned out that the second master just remembered the gentleness when Mengxi rubbed his feet last night, as well as the Yangchun noodles in the morning, and he actually had pity for Mengxi in his heart, so he wanted to accompany her to see her aunt and support her, after all, Aunt Li's matter was too big and slapped her in the face, I was afraid that she would really bully her aunt in the future.
It's just that his action is a little late, Mengxi will not be affectionate now, thinking that the second master is going to support her, from that day she softly and gently wanted to beg him to accompany her to receive the tea ceremony from her aunt, but after he refused, she decided that the second master of the Xiao Mansion would not stand on her side to support her, so she asked.
After listening to the second master's words, she took it for granted that Aunt Li must have come to sue that day, and he felt that she had bullied his concubine a little ruthlessly, so he hurriedly came out to support her concubine, lest the concubine be bullied by her again today. She forgot that the second master accompanied her to see her aunt, not her aunt to meet her.
If Xiao Jun knew what she was thinking at this time, he would definitely jump to his feet and shout, shouting that he was wronged, he was more wronged than that Dou E, sometimes, some misunderstandings, all in one thought.
Mengxi stood up calmly, followed behind Xiao Jun, and the two walked towards the hall one after the other.
came to the hall together, and after sitting down, Mengxi glanced at Xiao Jun, and saw that he didn't intend to speak, so he rushed to Hongzhu, who was standing next to him, and ordered:
"Please come in, aunties."
Hongzhu glanced at the little maid on the side, and the little maid hurriedly went out to invite.
After a while, in addition to Aunt Li, the three aunts came to the main hall with the support of the maid, and when they looked up, they saw Xiao Jun also sitting in the hall, all of them were one, it seems that it is not like the legend at all, the second master does not favor the second grandmother, this is not sick and just getting stronger, so he accompanied the second grandmother out, and they all secretly said that the second grandmother is a good means, and they secretly added caution.
