Although Zhuo Fangli did not refuse to say soft words to the 'daughter', he thought that such an arrangement was enough to express the meaning of compensation, and he thought that it would be fine in a few days, and he didn't want Zhuo Zhaojie to launch a high fever that night - it was a loss for Zhuo Fangli to let You go to accompany him, and Zhuo Zhaojie lay on the same bed, and found that the 'girl' was hot in the middle of the night, and he was busy with his clothes to wake up the 'woman'.

She was so sick, lying down for two days and two nights, in the middle of the muddy, until the afternoon of the third day to wake up, the turn in front of the bed A Xing, A Li saw her eyes open, from dazed gradually to sober, almost not crying with joy, A Li ran downstairs with her skirt to call the already mentally exhausted You, A Xing stepped forward to ask with red eyes, Zhuo Zhaojie closed his eyes again, paused before making a mouth shape, A Xing hurriedly served hot water, carefully fed her a little throat moistening, choked and said: "Does the lady still feel uncomfortable now?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie asked her to take a hidden pouch behind her, and said in a dumb voice, "I feel a little hungry now." ”

Ah Xing wiped her tears with her sleeve and said, "Lady is hungry? Thank God! That is, it is already good, the lady please wait, and the maid will go to get the porridge...... Or with those dishes from before? ”

"So be it." Zhuo Zhaojie said disheartenedly, leaning on the hidden sac, a tear slipped down from the corner of his eye, Ah Xing didn't dare to remind, Quan Dang didn't see it, and said in a low voice: "Yes, the maid will go." ”

She just turned around, You Shi had already rushed up with someone, and now You's face was very bad, pale as paper, and her sideburns were not as neat as before, almost without ornaments, she ran into the room in three steps and two steps, and shouted with sadness and joy: "Qi Niang!" ”

Seeing Zhuo Zhaojie leaning on the crypt and crying silently, he knew that this time he was not only frightened too much, but also heartbroken, and he really complained about Zhuo Fangli in his heart, what happened at the beginning, if the husband was clever and explained one or two in front of the child, the little 'daughter' would not be wronged like this until now, You Shi pressed his emotions, and asked softly on the side of the couch in the past, but Zhuo Zhaojie only closed his eyes and was silent, You Shi felt distressed and sad, thinking that the 'girl' child now even hates himself......

When she didn't know what to continue to say, fortunately, Ah Xing brought a food box, and You personally fed Zhuo Zhaojie a small half bowl of porridge. ”

You Shi saw that she was willing to speak in front of her, but it was to drive people away, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so she was stunned and said, "You all go down first." ”

When the envoy 'girl' was sent away, Zhuo Zhaojie looked at her silently, but You Shi didn't comfort or explain as she thought, but just took out a letter from his sleeve with a complicated look, and said: "This is a letter from the Hou Shizi of Yongcheng, which was sent yesterday, and you were still asleep at that time, so I didn't give it to you." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned, You Shi paused, and continued, "He used the name of the eldest princess of Jiyang, saying that a poem you wrote was good, and you were rewarded with a pot of 'jade' face peach 'flower', and the letter was sandwiched in the 'flower' pot, but when he arrived in the fourth room, he was found by Aunt Mao. ”

Seeing that the 'girl' seemed to be contemplating, You said, "The day before yesterday, the eldest lady of the Shi family and the six ladies of the Chun Yu family had made people visit the 'door', and the eldest lady of the Shi family sent a box of palace 'flowers' to you, and I heard that you were sick, and I came to visit yesterday, and the six ladies of the Chun Yu family asked you to go to see the 'flowers' together, and I heard that you also gave gifts after you fell ill." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said in a low voice: "Chun Yu Sixth Lady...... Is it Chun Yu Pei? ”

You said: "It's her...... When you came back from the 'spring' banquet last time, you didn't mention this little lady, but you met at the 'flower' meeting in the past few days. ”

"I met when I was traveling to Qujiang with Jiulang." Zhuo Zhaojie said lightly, "She and Mrs. Shi fought for a pot of 'Yu Ji' Yan 'outfit', and fought poems according to the rules of the 'flower' club, Mrs. Shi asked me to play on her behalf and won the pot of peonies, I don't want her to continue to date me." ”

You said cautiously: "Well, although the Chunyu family is a descendant, the queen mother is properly controlled, and there is no particularly bad person among the children, although this little lady is as good as the lady Shi, but the 'temperament' is also hearty." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie held Ning Shaobi's letterhead, stared at the seal that had been opened, and said in an ethereal tone: "Oh." ”

You Shi originally came to see her and was willing to say a few more words, and wanted to continue talking to her like this, so as to find an opportunity to uncover the mustard, but seeing Zhuo Zhaojie's appearance, it was obvious that she would fall asleep after reading the letter, and she was afraid of delaying her resting Chenguang, so she sighed secretly in her heart and said, "I'll go first, you can sleep first after reading the letter, don't be tired." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie sighed, and after You's left, she slowly took out the letterhead from the envelope that had been opened, and when she unfolded it, she saw scribbled handwriting, full of anxiety and condolences, and said that she had planned to go to the 'door' in person, but was blocked by the Marquis of Yongcheng, so she could only borrow her grandmother's hand to send a pot of 'flowers', and by the way, she brought a letter......

After reading it slowly, Zhuo Zhaojie lazily leaned on the couch, looked up at the top of the tent, and only felt that her heart was empty - she didn't see Zhuo Fangli's fear and regret that day, knowing that her father lost his hand in anger, but now that she thinks back on it, how can she not be frightened by the scene that was almost dead or disfigured?

When I woke up, "My father is the one who gave birth to me and raised me, and he didn't mean to want my 'life', how can I be a son and a 'daughter' who complains about the person who gave birth to and raised me" and "My relatives will do it, even if it is not my intention, but if I hide one step slower and say this, what is the use?" What will I do with my life? Afterwards, he didn't think so, "Two thoughts, heaven and man 'fighting', Zhuo Zhaojie's eyes were blank, and he only felt infinite trouble and sadness.

She fell asleep holding Ning Shaobi's letterhead, and Ah Xing, Ah Li and others crept in, carefully put away the letterhead for her, covered the brocade quilt, and then continued to stand aside silently.

At night, Zhuo Zhaojie woke up again, and he was more 'energetic', after all, the age was here, plus the usual foundation was good, even if he was full of heart, he got better very quickly, Ah Xing served' her to freshen up, and took the snacks that were easy to keg, Zhuo Zhaojie reluctantly ate some, Ah Li took in the 'medicine', she refused to eat, so that the 'women' coaxed softly for a long time, seeing that she must refuse, she had to withdraw.

Zhuo Zhaojie saw that You's meeting was not there, thinking that most of them were going back to Citang to go to the council, and she didn't have the heart to ask more questions this time, and ordered: "Where is the ''jade' face peach 'flower'?" I'll take a look. ”

Ah Xing was about to order someone to move up, when suddenly there was a noise in the direction of the courtyard 'door', and I heard it on the third floor across the courtyard, and I frowned and said, "Ah Li, go and see who is making noise outside?" ”

Ah Li was busy, and after a while, she came back with Ming Yin, who had a sullen face and came in and said, "Lady, it's Erniang outside." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie is now full of worries, and when he heard that Zhuo Fangdian was coming, his face turned cold, and he said impatiently: "I don't want to see this person now, send her away!" ”

Ming 'Yin' said helplessly: "But Erniang insisted on coming in to visit the lady - Mrs. went to Juyang Bofu today, and she hasn't come back yet, Lord Lang and Balang are not there, San Lang has already fallen asleep, I'm afraid I will have to have a little Chenguang here, and the maid really can't stop Erniang." ”

"Useless stuff!" Zhuo Zhaojie slapped the edge of the couch vigorously and said with a sneer, "Can't stop her?" How many handmaidens did she bring? ”

Ming 'groaned' and said: "Two, but ......"

"But what but!" Zhuo Zhaojie hated that iron could not become steel, "There are six of you who are serving in the building, the Quan family and the Zhan family guarding the 'gate' in the outer courtyard have all the strength, and there are also people in the kitchen at the back, there are only three people with the master and servants, and it is difficult to stop it, are you made of tofu, or do the three of them know how to demons?!" ”

Ming 'Yin' was scolded so red that he didn't dare to make a sound for a while, and said carefully: "But that's the second lady......"

"If the Quan family and the Zhan family said this, I would still understand, don't you think it's ridiculous to say this?" Zhuo Zhaojie was annoyed at the moment, and said loudly, "You were originally a member of the You family before, and then the deed was given to me, and now you are my maidservant 'daughter' alone, what kind of second lady is Zhuo Fangdian of yours?!" ”

Ah Xing saw that Ming's 'Yin' was scolded and couldn't stand, so she hurriedly came forward to persuade and said: "The lady is angry and angry, I expect that Ming's 'Yin' sister is also worried about the lady these days, and she is a little confused in her busy work, so she said something wrong, we are here in the fourth room, not to mention that now we all know that the lady is healing, and the second lady in this big night came to show that she has no good intentions, how can we watch her disturb the lady?" ”

She said while giving Ming 'Yin' a 'color', and Ming 'Yin' knelt down tremblingly to ask for guilt, but saw Zhuo Zhaojie holding his cheek with one hand, thoughtfully, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Wait a minute!" ”

The 'women' also said that she was angry, remembering that Zhuo Fangdian was always her aunt, and rashly drove away the elders under the banner of visiting, but she didn't expect Zhuo Zhaojie to quickly order: "Ah Li, you go to the back and call a few powerful mothers-in-law to go out from the back 'door', remember to take some sticks and 'sticks', go around the courtyard wall to the front, block their way, and then say hello to the Quan family in front of them, and beat these three people to me hard!" ”

Not to mention the timid Ming 'groaning' this time, even Ah Xing's eyes widened, and she said, "But ...... Ke Erniang...... Erniang is the aunt of the lady! ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said coldly: "Did I ask you to beat your aunt?!" ”

A Xing and the others looked at each other.

Zhuo Zhaojie took a breath and said: "On this big night, even if the lights are lit outside the courtyard 'door', it is not as clear as seeing in the daytime...... How would that be done? ”

Ah Xing muttered, "But...... The whole house knows that there are four palace lamps hanging outside the 'door' of our courtyard, and they are the brightest, and they are enough to do needlework underneath......"

"Those mothers-in-law are also a little old, can't they see the 'flowers' in their eyes?!" Zhuo Zhaojie glared at her angrily and said coldly, "Or maybe you happen to have an eye disease in the past few days?" Who told those thieves that those thieves had bad luck today! Caught up with the time when the mother-in-law's eyesight was not successful! ”

——At the meeting in Qujiang Furong Garden, Ning Shaobi said: "Isn't it the time for the warm breeze to make people 'want' drunk? "It's still blue and white! It's going to be a high moon and it's dark!

Ah Li said timidly: "But the two ladies are not sneaky, they have been talking to Aunt Quan and Aunt Zhan for a long time." ”

"Ming's 'Yin' can be confused because of worrying about me, and the Quan family and the Zhan family can't worry too much, and suddenly faint while talking?" Zhuo Zhaojie quickly repaired the plan and said coldly, "The mother-in-law just arrived at the 'door' and happened to see this scene, if you don't do it, what kind of loyal servants are you?!" ”

Ming Yin thought about it and said weakly: "Can ...... But what about after the fight? ”

"Stupid!" Zhuo Zhaojie said hatefully, "When I was fighting, I pulled up their skirts and robes or something, and I turned around and dragged them to the firewood room, caring about their life and death!" Anyway, it's a thief, or a dead man who secretly ran away from our four rooms, what do you want to be empty-hearted? She patted the edge of the couch and shouted, "Tell those mothers-in-law, if you do this well, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver per person, and if you can't do it well, I am not happy in my heart today, who dares to disappoint me, I will not be happy in her life!" ”

This is not to do a good job, don't think about living a good life, A Xing and the three of them didn't dare to say a word, and they didn't dare to ask anything, so they answered obediently, and went downstairs lightly, and beat the leaves, early autumn, and Liqiu and others went up to take turns to serve.
