Chapter 82: Punishment for the Heart
Jiang Fuyue picked up the small mirror next to the bed and looked at it, only to see that the eyes of the person in the mirror were red and swollen, like walnuts, and they were really ...... Comical.
Jiang Fuyue didn't look at it anymore, and snapped the mirror down.
When he came back, the handkerchief in his hand became bulging: "The slave has already asked someone to prepare ice, Madame don't have to worry, you can apply it carefully overnight." ā
Jiang Fuyue nodded.
She lay down with her eyes closed, and the sting motions gently applied her eyes.
After a moment of silence in the room, Jiang Fuyue suddenly spoke: "My third sister has been back for a while, so she must have said kiss, right?" ā
was stunned for a moment, and the movements in his hands followed: "...... Come to think of it. ā
Gu Yu frowned and said, "Madam, you still have the heart to take care of the third girl!" She'sā"
Before she finished speaking, she was glared at by the stunned sting, and was immediately silenced.
"Yes, she is Mrs. Jiang's daughter," Jiang Fuyue hooked the corners of her lips, and there was a chill in her voice inexplicably, "It's hard to say what a father is, but a mother, no matter how she treats outsiders, will always do her best for their sake when she treats her own flesh and blood, and even sacrifice herself when necessary." ā
After a pause, Jiang Fuyue said again: "Let's see, what this Mrs. Jiang can do for her daughter." ā
"What do you mean, ma'am......"
"Mrs. Jiang is the culprit, so naturally she wants to let her fight with her life." Jiang Fuyue's tone was very natural, as if she was just talking about an insignificant matter.
Her mother was tortured and left.
Then this Mrs. Jiang, don't even think about running away.
Stunned and Gu Yu raised their eyes to look at each other, and they both lowered their eyes silently.
"The girl is cautious, and she hurts herself carefully," said the stunned voice slowly, in a calm tone, as if she had made up some kind of determination, "if there is something to do, let the slave and maid do it." ā
After all, the girl is an official noblewoman, how can she do such a thing.
Besides, if the matter is revealed, the second half of the girl's life will be ruined.
But she is not afraid, and she has no worries.
It's a cheap life, she was almost sold into the land of fireworks when she was young, but fortunately with the help of her wife, she can have today.
If she didn't have a wife, she wouldn't have grown up at all.
Every day nowadays, it's stolen.
What's more, without her by the girl's side, Gu Yu is also a person who can take care of things, but she will have to work harder in the future.
Thinking so, his eyes became more and more determined.
Gu Yu on the side bit his lip and said, "Girl, tell the slave to do it!" Stunned acts safely, with her by the girl's side, the slave can also be blind! ā
Hearing this, Jiang Fuyue smiled: "Neither of you is afraid, how can I be afraid?" ā
She will personally send Mrs. Jiang on the road.
Her eyes were closed, her face was calm, and the great waves in her heart were unknown.
Sleepless nights.
The next day, Jing Zhen and Gu Yu were forced by her to rest, and Shi Yi and Shi San followed her.
Near noon, Shen Chuan really came.
The servants welcomed him into the main hall, and went to Songjuin to report to the old lady.
The old lady frowned when she heard this: "Why are you here again?" ā
Mother Liu said: "Old lady, did you forget, didn't you say that you came to see Madame on the order of the queen's mother?" I guess I didn't see it yesterday, and I couldn't pay the errand, so I ran again. ā
Hearing this, the old lady had nothing to say.
"In that case, wouldn't it be okay to just ask Fuyue to see him?" As soon as the words came out, the old lady suddenly paused, "I heard that Fuyue is sick, how is it now?" ā
Mother Liu said with a smile: "Don't worry, old lady, Mrs. is already fine, and she took a turn in the backyard in the morning, listening to the people below, but looking at the steps a little vain, it's not a big problem!" ā
After speaking, Mother Liu sighed again: "Alas, now in the old lady's heart, the weight of the lady is really getting heavier!" If this matter is spread outside, I don't know how many people will envy Madame! ā
Mother Liu's two sentences made the old lady feel very ironed in her heart: "Well, after all, she is the housewife of our Hou Mansion, and it is not easy to manage this Hou Mansion. ā
Mother Liu echoed with a smile, and said, "Then that Lord Shen ......"
Speaking of Shen Chuan, the smile on the old lady's face retracted.
She thought for a while and said, "Then Shen ...... Shen or something, is he a five-grade official? ā
Liu's mother nodded yes.
The old lady snorted coldly and said, "A mere fifth-grade official, is also worthy of asking me to meet?" Don't alarm Master Hou, just call Fuyue to go! ā
Hearing this, Mother Liu hesitated a little: "But old lady, this Lord Shen heard that it is a celebrity in front of His Majesty now, if we don't see it, will we offend people?" ā
"No matter how much you are a celebrity, you are a five-grade official! It can be seen that His Majesty didn't take him seriously, we are the Hou Mansion! Still afraid of him? The old lady's tone was impatient, "Okay, okay, you quickly call someone down to spread the word!" By the way, I told the kitchen to have an early lunch today. ā
Seeing this, Mother Liu didn't dare to say anything more, and did as the old lady ordered.
The backyard came and went, and it took a lot of time.
Shen Chuan was not in a hurry, just sat in the main hall and drank tea, looking like an old god was there.
After a stick of incense, I heard a sound of footsteps coming from far and near.
Shen Chuan raised his eyes to look at the person who came, put the teacup aside, got up and saluted: "Mrs. Gu." ā
"Lord Shen doesn't have to be polite, sit down," Jiang Fuyue said with a smile, "It's been hard for adults to make these two trips, so it must have delayed a lot of things for adults, right?" ā
Shen Chuan sat down and observed Jiang Fuyue's expression without a trace, and saw that there was nothing unusual except for the slight redness of her eyes, and his heart was slightly fixed.
When he heard that the maid beside Jiang Fuyue went to call the son of the imperial doctor Ling overnight, he was really shocked.
Shen Chuan's face didn't show anything, he shook his head, and said with a smile: "It's also fortunate that the queen mother sent me such a leisurely errand, otherwise I am afraid that I will be detained in the palace by His Majesty and approve the review for His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince." ā
Jiang Fuyue was stunned.
Shen Chuan is actually commenting on His Majesty?
Or with the crown prince?
She quickly came back to her senses and made a look of regret: "I knew that I should have been sick for two more days, and asked the adults to be leisurely." ā
Shen Chuan pursed his lips, and most of the smile on his face disappeared: "I don't want to be so idle all the time." ā
Jiang Fuyue couldn't answer this.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was cold, Shen Chuan got up and said, "Now that I see that Mrs. Gu is fine, I have to go and talk back to the queen mother, so I will take the first step." ā
Jiang Fuyue also got up: "I'll send the adult." ā
"No need," Shen Chuan said hurriedly, "Madame's body is still weak, so it's better to go back and rest quickly." ā
After speaking, Shen Chuan turned around and hurried away.
Jiang Fuyue didn't go out to see him off.
Seeing him leave, Jiang Fuyue also turned around and returned to Shaoguang Courtyard.
As a result, as soon as he walked to the Hanging Flower Gate, the little guy in the gatehouse outside caught up breathlessly: "Madam, there is a woman outside, saying that she is your friend and wants to see you!" ā
