Chapter 18: The Unexpected
In the summer heat, the noisy chirping of cicadas came from the trees and flowers, and the red lacquered diamond-shaped wooden lattice windows were ridged, and there were some mottled scratches on them, proving how the owner of this small courtyard was in a situation.
Forsythia came back almost at a trot all the way, she didn't care about the sticky sweat, and when she came back, she handed the medicine to Sang Yue, and then took the letter to find Su Yunjiao.
Almost as soon as Forsythia entered the room, Su Yunjiao sat up, she grabbed the quilt and asked excitedly, "Is my aunt back?" Isn't it? ”
Forsythia had tears in her eyes and said busily: "Yes, exactly, God willing, my aunt is not much of a problem except for being weak and tired." ”
Su Yunjiao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and showed a sweet smile, which was also the first smile she had shown in these days, and then she lifted the quilt and said, "I'm going to see my aunt." ”
Forsythia was bluffed, oh my God! If the young lady sees the wounds on her aunt's face and hands, then she will have it!
"Miss, wait, you're still sick and can't go!" Forsythia accented the word "sick".
Su Yunjiao took her hand back and said dejectedly, "Okay then." After saying that, he lay back in a daze
Forsythia breathed a sigh of relief.
Who knew that Su Yunjiao suddenly said: "Sister Forsythia, you don't hide anything from me, right?" ”
Forsythia's heart skipped a beat, and she said calmly, "How can the slave be." ”
It's strange to say, Miss After this period of change, the little person has become more and more difficult to deal with, sometimes I want to tell a lie to make Miss feel at ease, I have to think carefully for a long time, otherwise it can be easily seen, think about the previous pretending to be sick, how can I not think that a seven-year-old child has such an impatience.
I think it's her young lady who is more precocious.
In order to divert Su Yunjiao's attention, Forsythia hurriedly took out the letter left by Dr. Li, and told Su Yunjiao the original words that the boy had told her before.
"Dr. Li is gone?" Su Yunjiao said in surprise.
"It's true. Miss, what shall we do now? Forsythia asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, I'll read the letter first." Su Yunjiao's heart sank a little.
Forsythia is ashamed that her concentration is not as strong as that of a child.
After reading the letter, Su Yunjiao showed a smile and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I see, Sister Forsythia, we can almost leave the house in these two days." Su Yunjiao said with a smile.
"Really?" Forsythia asked in surprise.
"Well, you go and sell all the jewelry that can be sold, don't leave anything too valuable, and try to exchange the money after the sale for broken silver or small silver bills for emergencies, and then exchange some copper coins." Su Yunjiao earnestly advised.
Forsythia hurriedly said: "The slave will do it immediately." ”
"Take this away, grab it according to the prescription above after changing the money, and remember, burn it as soon as you run out." Su Yunjiao handed over the envelope with a solemn expression.
Forsythia took it suspiciously, could it be that what was written in this letter was actually a prescription?
"Also, my aunt will tell me as soon as she wakes up." Su Yunjiao added.
Forsythia tugged at the corners of her mouth, nodded, folded the envelope and stuffed it into her purse, and walked out of the house quickly, thinking: If she stays any longer, she is afraid that she will be exposed.
Before leaving, Forsythia took a look at Aunt Wen's house, and saw that Sang Yue had been staying in front of the bed, so she couldn't help nodding secretly.
Sang Yue put the porridge she asked for from the kitchen on the table, then made a basin of hot water, carefully wiped Aunt Wen's body, and then carefully applied the medicinal powder brought back by Forsythia, and after doing this, she dozed off on the bed.

"What do you say? My sister-in-law actually put people back? Zhang looked at Rui'er in disbelief.
Rui'er shrank back, buried her head and stumbled: "Yes, yes, almost not long after you walked on your front feet, Aunt Wen was dragged back to Yixiang Pavilion by the two mothers-in-law, and the slave didn't dare to start without your instructions." ”
Zhang's face was gloomy, and he waved her hand to let her down.
Rui'er was relieved and hurriedly bowed and retreated.
She understands that Jiang Suxin has sent the Wen family back, so it is a sure thing to send Su Yunjiao away, otherwise the evil woman will not leave the Wen family day and night.
"Fei Hong, are we making a mistake, why didn't Jiang Suxin come as planned?" Zhang frowned, puzzled.
"The slave maid is also surprised, it is said that the eldest lady's face-loving and irritable temperament, shouldn't she ask the doctor to prescribe medicine to the third lady, so that she can make a good appearance to gag people's mouths?" Fei Hong was also very surprised.
The master and servant duo have also made a stumbling block for Jiang Suxin openly and secretly, and the Zhang family has been with Jiang Suxin for many years, and they have already figured out her character thoroughly, and they didn't expect to miss this time.
For a while, the atmosphere in this room was quite dreary.
"Well, go and call the kidney beans." Zhang said helplessly.
"Madam, we don't have to report this incident to that person, anyway, we didn't plan to do it immediately, it's still early before the wedding day of the crown princess, and there is enough time left for us." Fei Hong suggested in a low voice.
"I don't know, it's just that the urging over there is tight, and she is pinching the future of the sixth brother, but if I do something unfavorable or try to hide it, what awaits me will only be a light or heavy punishment." Zhang's expression was full of remorse and resentment, but more of a helplessness of having to compromise.
Fei Hong was dumbfounded.
"By the way, did the sixth brother get it?" Zhang turned his mind and asked.
"The slave was about to say something, someone just handed a note to the slave and maid, and I didn't have time to read it." Fei Hong took out a paper roll from her sleeve and said.
"I'll take a look." Zhang casually unfolded the note and glanced at it, and suddenly his eyes widened.
"Damn it! It's fast! Zhang's aggrieved voice sounded.
Fei Hong was surprised, hearing this, that Dr. Li actually ran away?
"That's it, a little doctor is not worth mentioning, it seems that this time is not suitable for action." Zhang pressed his anger down.
Fei Hong thought so.
In the afternoon, the Lu Yuan sentenced to the Chengen Mansion, and immediately the entire Songhe Yuan was boiling, and even Mrs. Tai didn't expect to really invite the Lu Yuan to judge, and thought that it would be an ordinary imperial doctor.
"Come on, make tea for the Lu Yuan." Mrs. Tai's voice was slightly joyful, and she raised her voice.
"Mrs. Da'an, there is no need to be so polite, the old man asked where the patient is, and it is better to return to the palace as soon as possible to report to His Royal Highness the Prince." The Lu Yuan judged that he was laughing, how could he have the rumored unapproachable appearance.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Mrs. Tai said with a little surprise.
"Exactly, I was in the East Palace to diagnose the pulse, and it happened that my little boy brought Mrs. Tai's post to ask the doctor, and the prince saw it and asked one more question, one more instruct, no, I have to hurry up and report Ling Qianjin's illness." The Lu court explained the cause and effect, and flattered Mrs. Tai.
It turned out to be the prince's order, which means that the prince is very satisfied with this marriage.
Mrs. Tai picked up the teacup, covered the slightly upturned corners of her mouth, and said, "Guizhi, take someone to move the three girls over, so that the Lu Yuan can judge and see a doctor." ”
"Don't bother, don't bother, just go to the old man in person, and when the princess enters the East Palace, the old man will definitely go to congratulate him in person." Lu Yuan stood up and smiled and arched his hand.
"Yes." Seeing this, Gui Zhi led the way in front and led the people away.
