Chapter 6: Gradually Surfacing
The next morning, Wanqing had just gotten up when she saw Hongmei walking up to her with a bowl of soup and medicine, "Madam, please drink the medicine." With that, she handed the medicine bowl over.
Wanqing took the medicine bowl and took a sip, the medicine tasted extremely bitter, and her eyebrows frowned as soon as she drank it.
"Madam, the medicine is bitter." Hongmei frowned when she saw her, for fear that she wouldn't eat, so she comforted her and helped blow it again.
So, under the persuasion of Hongmei Lian, she drank the bowl of medicine.
"Madam, Madame Ouyang is here." Wanqing was about to drink tea, when she saw someone come to report, and then, she saw Cheng Ning'er walking in.
"Sister Ning'er, you're here." Seeing her coming, Wanqing handed the teacup to Hongmei, and was about to get out of bed, but Cheng Ning'er ran over and held her up, "My sister's body has not recovered yet, it's better to lie down." ”
She sat on the edge of Wanqing's bed, her expression calm and her smile believing, as if nothing had happened.
"How did my sister rest last night?"
"Sister Lao is worried, and Wanqing is very good."
"Hearing my sister say this, I'm much more relieved, I've heard about my sister's matter, hey, it's really a trick, no one would have thought that the general's carriage would have such a situation." After she finished speaking, her face was full of pity, and her handkerchief gently wiped the corners of her eyes, and a few tears flickered faintly.
She didn't mention it, but as soon as she mentioned it, Wanqing thought of that innocent little life again, her heart was pinched, and a tear slipped quietly.
"Madame!" Hongmei stood aside, saw Wanqing crying, immediately ran over, gently wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and comforted: "Madame is weak, don't hurt your mind and body again." Then she turned her head and glared at Cheng Ning'er angrily and said, "Mrs. Ouyang, did you come today because you still think my wife didn't cry enough?" ”
Wanqing saw that her words were excessive, and knew that she was doing it for her good, but after all, because of her identity, it was indeed rude for Hongmei to do this, so she immediately took her hand and said softly: "Don't be rude, Mrs. Ouyang is just unintentional, you say this, but you don't know the reason." ”
"Madam, I'm ......" Hongmei was slightly angry when she saw Wanqing, for fear that she would be too excited, and swallowed the words that just came to her mouth.
"Sister, don't blame her." I saw Cheng Ning'er stand up from the chair suddenly, her face full of apologies, "Look at my mouth, it's really a pot that can't be opened, Hongmei reminded me." After saying that, he slapped himself lightly.
"Don't." Seeing this, Wanqing panicked, and then hurriedly persuaded: "Sister, don't be like this, everything is the will of God, since God wants to take back this child, I can't go back to heaven." ”
"My sister must not be too pessimistic, you are still young, and there will always be children."
"Kid?" Wanqing muttered secretly, will she really have it in this life? Thinking about it, Feng Qiuyin will never touch her again.
Strange, why did Lu think of him? Could it be that she still has hopes for him?
Cheng Ning'er saw that Wanqing was like this, so she also knew a thing or two, so she persuaded: "Sister, don't be sad anymore, now, taking care of your body is the main thing, but ......" She stopped as she spoke, looked around, and looked like she wanted to say something.
"Let's all go down first." Seeing that she was embarrassed, Wanqing waved her hand and retreated from the people around her.
"Sister has something to say, please say." After everyone had retreated, Wanqing spoke again.
Cheng Ning'er looked at Wanqing, hesitated for a while, and then whispered: "I always think that this matter is not so simple, although the temperament of the livestock is difficult to fathom, but it is the general's carriage, and this will never happen under normal circumstances." ”
"What do you mean by this, sister?" Wanqing asked deliberately, as if unexpected.
"My sister has always been smart and icy, and she should have thought that the horse must have been manipulated."
"Sister's intention is that someone deliberately harmed me?" Wanqing was stunned, and said: "But I don't remember who I have a grudge with!" ”
"My sister is really too innocent, sometimes, it doesn't have to be hatred that can hurt people." Cheng Ning'er said earnestly, "If my sister can trust my sister, this matter will be wrapped up in me, and I will definitely find out the real murderer who killed this child and make him pay the price!" ”
"Sister doesn't have to bother, the whole thing started because of me, let me solve it alone."
After another two days, Wanqing's body had almost recovered, and then she got out of bed and wanted to go for a walk.
As soon as I pushed the door, I saw Shuang'er coming over, "Miss, why did you come out?" A woman in confinement is not allowed to get cold. As she spoke, she draped a mink fur over Wanqing's body.
Wanqing smiled faintly and said, "You, you're just too nervous, where am I so squeamish, I've been lying in bed for a long time, and I'm sick." ”
"But ......" Shuang'er knows the temperament of the late sunshine, and since he can't resist it, he has to go along with it.
Walking out of the house, the evening mood is also much more relaxed, the spring is getting stronger and stronger, and the willow trees have sprouted by the lake.
Wanqing walked to the foot of the rockery, looked up at the pavilion above, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise a meaningful smile.
"It's put away, it's a very expensive feed." Wanqing only felt that someone was whispering behind the rockery, and she was puzzled and went to check, and saw a maid and a man here, and then went to take a closer look, Wanqing recognized at a glance that the man was none other than the horseman who was driving that day.
"What are you doing here?" Wanqing opened her mouth to ask, and saw that the two of them were frightened, and lost their minds for a moment, so they threw the feed bag in their hands to the ground.
The groom was shocked and was about to reach out to pick it up, but Wanqing noticed that something was wrong, and immediately picked up the paper bag first, smelled it, and asked, "What is this?" ”
The two of them turned pale with fright, and knelt down in front of Wanqing.
Seeing that they were so flustered, Wanqing had already guessed a thing or two, so she said sharply: "You dare to steal things from the general's mansion, and you don't have to recruit them fully?" ”
When they saw Wanqing saying this, they immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy, only to see the groom crying: "The little one should be damned, the little one didn't want to steal this pack of feed, but the little one heard that Chunni's foal had recently been sick, and saw that the general's beloved horse had enough feed, and Lang took a lot of trouble to give it to Chunni." ”
"Love horses?" Wanqing muttered in a low voice, and then asked, "Are the general's horses fed with this kind of feed?" ”
The groom did not dare to hesitate, and kowtowed, saying, "Yes, because this fodder is very expensive, and only the general's horses are eligible for it. ”
"How many days have you been buying this feed?" Wanqing asked again, she felt at this time that the most fundamental accident of the carriage was due to the feed.
The groom said, "Probably three or four days." ”
What, Wanqing was stunned, wasn't the time when these feeds were bought on the day she went to Tianning Temple?
