Chapter 59: Sulking
"What kind of illness did the old lady have?" Bai Xiyun pulled Qi Miao to sit down and said casually: "Let the girl who doesn't understand the rules come in and talk back." ”
"Yes. "Ask Lian yes, and after a while, a little girl who is about twelve or thirteen years old will be brought in.
The little girl wore a light green pinching tooth armor, a water-colored silk jacket inside, and a dark green sweat towel around her waist.
When I saw Bai Xiyun, I didn't see how respectful the little girl was, but she just saluted casually and said the words outside: "The old lady is sick, please go and take a look." ”
Qi Miao frowned.
Why is it that the old lady's courtyard is specially rich in this kind of slaves and maids who do not distinguish between dignity and humility. Either the rule of Jinxiuyuan is not strict, or they look down on the people of Qinyuan too lightly.
Bai Xiyun has been eating Qi Miao's "special" water recently, both his skin and complexion have improved a lot, and even his long-abided, yellow, and split hair has become healthy, gradually revealing his handsome side.
However, his face was gloomy, although his face was no longer hideous, but it was also like a layer of frost, and his eyes were sharp like a fierce beast staring at its prey, he had not yet spoken, only glanced at the girl, the little girl's face turned white, and she subconsciously lowered her head.
"You say, the old lady is sick?"
"Hui Shizi, yes. "The attitude is much more respectful.
"You're supposed to be in charge of the little pantry, right? What is it called, Green Stripe or Green Sleeves?"
The little girl raised her eyes in shock, and looked at Bai Xiyun's complexion much better, her slightly handsome face, her face was red, and she bowed her head and said, "Slave green lines." ”
"Well, I remember you. Bai Xiyun's tone was still very cold, and his slender fingers with distinct bones turned the tea bowl on the table. The carp and the fish seem to swim at night.
A sentence of memory makes the little girl full of joy. Who said that Shizi was ugly and terrifying? Looking closely, Shizi is clearly a sick and weak beautiful man.
A person with such an identity can remember her as a third-class maid, her heart is full of joy, and she even took the initiative to reply, and said in a soft voice: "The old lady's body is fine, and the prince doesn't have to be too anxious." ”
With such a divine turn, Qi Miao was only stunned. If I'm not mistaken, her husband didn't do anything, right?
Looking at Bai Xiyun, Qi Miao sneered.
Bai Xiyun took her hand and patted it, only to feel that her hand was soft and boneless, and couldn't help rubbing her thumb back and forth on the back of her hand.
"Since the old lady is fine, I can rest assured. Go ahead, tell the old lady that I am not feeling well, and I will go after taking medicine. ”
The low voice was cold, but with the magnetic charm unique to men, the green veined face was flushed when he listened, and he lowered his head shyly.
Bai Xiyun waved his hand. Wen Lian took the green stripe down with disdain.
Qi Miao saw that the person was walking away, so he pinched his arm, "You demon." ”
Bai Xiyun frowned innocently, rubbed his arms and said, "What's wrong?"
"You look better now, you are also handsome, and you can hook the soul of the little girl between words. Are you getting better in the future?"
"My family is jealous. Bai Xiyun smiled and pinched her cheeks with both hands.
When he laughed, it was as warm as the ice and snow melted and spring returned to the earth, Qi Miao blushed and didn't dare to look at him, so he was about to get up: "Let's get ready and go to the Splendid Garden, it's not good to make the old lady wait for a long time." ”
As soon as he got up, he was pulled by him to sit on his lap before he could stand firmly, and a flower spread out at his feet in a honey-colored light gauze skirt, and the person with the fragrance of flowers had fallen into his arms.
A word suddenly popped up in Bai Xiyun's heart: natural stunner.
Smelling the fragrance of her neck and hair, and hugging her soft and slender waist, Bai Xiyun closed her eyes, feeling satisfied to hug her like this.
Qi Miao blushed and her heart was beating, and she was worried that her heartbeat would be heard by Bai Xiyun. After a while, Bai Xiyun felt that the time was almost up, so he ordered someone to prepare a small oil cart for transportation.
The small oil cart lays a thick mattress, and the mattress is covered with a bamboo mat, which is not hot, but also soft and comfortable, the two sit snuggly, and the car slowly stops in front of the gate of the Splendid Garden in a short time.
Yao's mother had just heard the old lady make a fire, and she was standing in front of the door waiting, just waiting for Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao to come quickly to "help", and saw Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao and his wife stepping on the footstool and getting out of the carriage with the support of the maidservant.
Yao's mother was impatient. But in the hot spring villa, they had already eaten enough of their pomp, Bai Xiyun's residual power was still there, she didn't dry it at all, and hurriedly came forward to salute respectfully.
"Lord Shizi, madam. ”
Qi Miao asked: "The old lady is not good, but he has hired a doctor, what is happening now?"
Yao's mother was speechless for a while. The old lady is not sick at all, in fact, she is just looking for Qi Miao's bad luck. Just now, before the person who came immediately after the green stripe went to reply, the old lady became angry on the spot, and sent the green stripe to the courtyard to kneel with a copper basin of water.
Qi Miao had a number in her heart, and her face was anxious: "But the old lady is not good?!"
Without waiting for Yao's mother to answer, she hurriedly turned around and instructed Ailian, who accompanied her: "You go back quickly and invite Dr. Li to take a look at the old lady." He also explained to Yao's mother, "Dr. Li's ability is much stronger than those quacks who have treated the prince over the years, and with him, the old lady's condition will not be delayed." ”
Aren't the "quack doctors" who used to treat Shizi all the people arranged by the old lady! The corners of Yao's mother twitched, and she led Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao into the courtyard.
As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I saw a familiar little girl holding the copper basin above her head with both hands and kneeling, and when she got closer, she saw that it was green, Qi Miao said in surprise: "The girl who just went to talk back to me is very good, and she is proper and thoughtful, why is she punished for kneeling?"
Yao's mother was speechless.
Qi Miao sneered in her heart.
It seems that the rich Buddha who has been smiling and chanting all the time also has a day when he can't hold back his anger.
The maidservants on both sides lifted the bead curtains, and after entering the door, they stepped on the big red hairpin carpet around the carved peony flower interstitial screen to get inside, and came to the east side.
The old lady is holding a jade rosary, sitting cross-legged on the three-circumference arhat bed placed by the window, the jade rosary is green and the dark green brocade mattress echoes the dull light, the old lady is dressed with a look, and it is not clear what color it is under the light, but it seems that her amber eyes are shining like glass beads.
"The granddaughter-in-law asked the old lady to say goodbye. "Qi Miao saluted.
Bai Xiyun was silent, and without waiting for the old lady to respond, he stroked his chest and coughed twice.
Under the long-term illness, it is easy to do it if you are sick and weak.
Qi Miao hurriedly helped him to sit down. Because it is unlikely that you have to wait for the old lady to speak and invite the prince to sit.
And Bai Xiyun suddenly reacted.
Although he has not recovered now, his body is much better!
Pretending, sick?!
He, a person who has been sick for two lifetimes, actually needs to pretend to be weak one day!
Bai Xiyun raised his eyes in astonishment and looked at Qi Miao.
And Qi Miao had already turned around and looked at the old lady: "I heard that you are not feeling well, I have ordered the doctor to come in a hurry." This Dr. Li is a recent person who specializes in serving the pulse of the prince, and his medical skills are excellent and trustworthy, you can rest assured that his body will definitely be well adjusted. ”
Her expression was serious, her words were concerned, and the old lady scolded the fox several times in her heart, but on the surface, she couldn't catch what she did inappropriately.
"Brother Zhao'er is not in good health, how many days have you been able to raise yourself in the hot spring villa?"
Bai Xiyun smiled weakly and bitterly, and his momentum was still terrifying: "That's it." Thank you for remembering. ”
The old lady looked at Bai Xiyun through the light, and vaguely felt that this grandson seemed to look better, but he couldn't say what was good, but his weak appearance had never changed.
The old lady sneered: "I don't remember your words, where will you remember me?
Bai Xiyun suddenly realized: "It turns out that the old lady is concerned about this. You look too concerned about such a trivial matter: "You don't know that I was born weak, but I was really sick and couldn't get up, and I couldn't come to your birthday banquet, it's really my grandson's." ”
Bai Xiyun held Qi Miao's hand, trembled and weakly got up and saluted: "Please forgive the old lady." ”
He was sick as if he was going to die at any time, so that the old lady couldn't do anything even if she wanted to, what if the news spread and someone accused her of treating her sick and weak grandson badly? ”
Qi Miao's heart jumped, this old pious woman, smiling like Maitreya Buddha, said something that the younger generations couldn't refuse, but it was obvious that she was uneasy and kind. If she stays, she doesn't know what tricks she will come up with.
But filial piety is the head, she has no power to say no, including Bai Xiyun, and she does not have this power.
Just about to answer, Bai Xiyun said before she spoke: "I am with the Qi family and my wife, if she stays to serve the old lady, I will naturally stay, although I will not serve people, but I can watch you on the sidelines, and it is satisfying to just watch." ”
When the old lady heard this, she raised her eyebrows.
His appearance, where he seemed to be satisfied, was clearly telling her: I don't believe that you dare to leave a sick and weak person to serve on the side, and you are not afraid of spreading the word and making people laugh at it. Could it be that there is not even a subordinate in the huge Hou Mansion?
The old lady gritted her teeth.
At this moment, someone outside said back and forth: "Old lady, Master Hou is here." ”
As soon as the words fell, he saw that the door curtain was lifted, and Bai Yongchun wore a royal blue brocade robe with Fushou pattern and entered the door, and at a glance he saw Qi Miao standing beside Bai Xiyun.
Thinking back to Qi Miao in the hot spring villa, it seems that she has changed a person, and when she looks at this delicate person in front of her, no matter which one it is, she is so beautiful that she can't wait to be caught and plundered.
It's just that the body can't do it now!
Bai Yongchun saluted the old lady and grabbed Bai Xiyun: "Brother Zhao, you come out with your father!"
Bai Xiyun couldn't refuse, so he was pulled out by Win.
