Chapter 22: Bao Lu, go and get Mama Zhao back
The auspicious day finally came, and everyone in Xiangye's mansion put on brand-new 'work clothes', especially Su Peiyi's four wedding maids, who were completely renewed. Bao Green is the same as the name, wearing an emerald green skirt, the cloves are light pink, the tansy is pale yellow, and the white rage is pink and purple.
However, the green in the beautiful new clothes is not very happy.
Whoever gets up at three o'clock in the morning and starts busy work on an empty stomach probably can't be happy!
Although Miss Yesterday ordered a few people to rest early, the excited Tansy and Lilac 'bedside night talk' still made the four of them stand in front of Su Peiyi with panda eyes. There was no time to speak at all, and the respected Xi Po invited by the master instructed the girls to be busy, and the heels didn't stick to the ground for a moment!
Finally dressed the bride properly, helped her to sit on the edge of the bed, and waited for the groom to enter the door, the tired Baolu was about to sneak into the kitchen to find some food pads to pad her stomach, and Su Peiyi, who was covered with a red hijab, caught her hand.
"Emerald Green." Su Peiyi's hands trembled slightly, after today, she would become someone's wife, and she would no longer be a pure father's daughter, so she might still be a little nervous.
"Do you have any orders?" Bao Lu held Su Peiyi's hand with his backhand and asked in a low voice.
"I want you to pick up Mama Zhao, I want her to watch me get married." Under the hijab, Su Peiyi said softly.
"Okay, I'll go." Baolu nodded, understanding that Miss was her mother had passed away, thinking that at least Mama Zhao, who had been growing up with her mother, could accompany her at the moment, even if it was only for a short while, "Don't worry, Miss, I'll go and go back quickly, my uncle's sedan chair hasn't arrived so soon, I'll definitely be able to catch it." ”
At this time, the whole house was busy, because Xiao Junkun should be coming over in half an hour, Baolu thought, I still have to drive faster, I don't know if Hu Yidao is in the mansion now?
As he went out to the door of the second courtyard, Baolu, who was in a hurry, bumped into Bai Qi who came in with some pastries.
"Where are you going in a hurry, girl?" For some reason, Bai Qi's face today is much more ugly than the three of them, as if she hasn't slept well for more than one night.
"Miss asked me to pick up Mama Zhao to the house, I'm in a hurry!"
Bao Lu finished speaking without delay and was about to turn around and hurry, but was grabbed by Bai Qian's arm.
"Treasure girl!" Bai Qi called her in a hurry.
"Sister Bai Qian, is there anything else?" Baolu was a little puzzled, the person who came to marry was coming soon, if he was not happy, he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up, could it be that Bai Qi also had something to do by himself?
"I'm out of the house today," Bai Qian paused halfway through his words, hesitated and made up his mind, and held Bao Lu's hand tightly before saying, "I'm out of the house today, don't rush back." Go for it! ”
Before Bao Lu could understand what she meant, Bai Qi had already turned around and went to the inner courtyard. After thinking about it, it is still important for the young lady to explain, you must not miss the auspicious time, and ask Sister Bai Qi when you come back!
Fortunately, when he ran to the stable, Hu Yidao was there, and he didn't say much, so he put on the carriage and drove to Mama Zhao's house from the side door with Baolu.
The distance between the two families is not too far, and they arrived at the place in half an hour, but there was some accident when picking up Mama Zhao - Baolu couldn't find Mama Zhao.
"Obviously, when I saw her old man last month, she was in good health, why did she suddenly get an epidemic?" Baolu was a little panicked when he couldn't see Mama Zhao, and he yelled at Mama Zhao's niece and daughter-in-law regardless of the world.
"Girl, I can't say anything about this?" The woman, who looked rather mean-looking, led Baolu around the house, and after showing that the aunt was indeed not in their house, she turned her fingernails and said idly: "We are all good food and drink for her old man, who knows which way she offended the fairy and made her old man sick." ”
"And where did you send her? Why don't you take care of yourself at home? Thinking of the kind old man, I don't know what these conscienceless people will do to her, and Bao Lu's tears are about to fall out.
"That's a plague! I have two sons at home, what should I do if I let her live at home and get infected? Hearing Baolu's reproach, the niece and daughter-in-law roared back with her hands on her hips and a strong momentum.
"Good, good! After all, my aunt is not my own mother, and I can't compare to your own son! You dislike her and refuse to serve her well, I will take her back to the Prime Minister's Mansion! Baolu was angry, and he didn't bother to argue with the woman who had no bottom line of humanity, so he only asked: "Where did you send Mama Zhao?" ”
Hearing Bao Lu talk about the Prime Minister's Mansion, the woman who suddenly relented in momentum softened, "Girl, it's not that we don't support her old man, but we did invite a doctor to come and tell us to find a clean place for her old man to recuperate." Our old house was near the city gate, and we cleaned it before sending her there, and we visited her every day. If the girl really wants to see her, where can I show you? ”
At this moment, Baolu didn't bother to entangle with this woman at all, and after asking where Mama Zhao lived, he got into Hu Yidao's carriage and walked away without looking back.
It took nearly a quarter of an hour to find Mama Zhao, because the place was indeed too remote, although it was all in the national capital, Baolu was the first time to come to this 'slum'-like residential area—not to mention the low houses, dilapidated everywhere, many portals did not even have decent doors and windows, and simply took some wooden planks to block the wind and rain; There are no streets, muddy paths divide the houses from the walkways, and the carriages walk almost along the eaves; The people who came and went were all tired and numb, and their bodies were all very thin and weak without accident, and their ages could not be seen clearly from their bodies, several of them were obviously in their thirties, but their temples were white and their bodies were sloppy.
"Mama Zhao!" Bao Lu got out of the car and inquired again to find Zhao Mama lying in a dilapidated house, seeing the thin old man in front of him, there was no previous spirit and serenity on his body, Bao Lu threw himself into Zhao Mama's arms and cried.
"Treasure girl? Is the baby girl coming to see me? Mama Zhao, who was woken up, wanted to get up, but her body was weak, and finally she just raised her hand and patted Baolu's back.
"Miss is getting married today, let me come to find you to enter the house. But why are you so sick? Why don't you let people talk to me? Bao Lu raised his head, and his tears fell down without money. Since Mama Zhao moved out of the house, she only took the time to see her twice, if she saw that her nephews and daughters-in-law were wrong at that time, she would definitely find a way to take her out, how could she make her old man suffer so much!
"Miss has a heart, but I'm afraid I can't go with my bones......" Hearing that Su Peiyi was still thinking about herself, the corners of Mama Zhao's eyes also moistened.
"I'll go back and tell the young lady to get the best doctor to come, go to the imperial doctor, and he will definitely be cured, and then take you back!" You wait. "Mama Zhao's current physical condition really can't move back and forth, so I'd better go back quickly and find a doctor to come over first.
"Mama, you lie down and rest first, I'll go back and talk to Miss, and I'll be back soon."
On the way home, Bao Lu kept looking around with wide eyes, for fear that this winding path would make him lose his way and delay time later, and he was afraid that he would not be able to see the old man again, and he forgot to wipe away the tears in the corners of his eyes, and urged Hu Yidao to drive the carriage faster and faster.
