boudoir

Chapter 149 Just wait and see
At first it was just a cold and a cough for a few days, but later it caused internal troubles, and the menstrual flow continued from the end of March to the end of April.Aunt Su didn't tell anyone else, she just called Wu Yinzhong for pulse diagnosis and prescription.Liuli didn't know about it either, but it was Lin Lang who was next to Aunt Su who accidentally mentioned it, and then went to the long room to see the truth, and saw that there were indeed many medicines on the prescriptions prescribed by Wu Yinzhong that were for gynecological daughters, so Aunt Su said told the truth.

When Wu Yinzhong came again, Liuli asked him the details, and then she felt relieved.It turned out that because of the magnificence of the nobles in the palace, Wu Yinzhong's eldest son worshiped the doctor of the imperial hospital as a teacher a few years ago, and devoted himself to studying this thousand-dollar medical prescription, so Aunt Su's illness is not a serious illness.

Because Aunt Su was ill, Liuli came back to the long room after school in the afternoon these few days, drinking tea and playing chess with her.Aunt Su's chess skills are much better than Liuli's, or maybe it's because her skills are too poor, so it seems that everyone is better than her.But one advantage of her is that she is always in high spirits regardless of winning or losing, so if it is purely to pass the time, it is good to find her.

Liuli played chess in the long room for a few days, and Aunt Su's body gradually became looser, and after breakfast this day, the two played a game under the peach blossom tree in the courtyard, Aunt Su said: "It's almost your birthday again, how are you going to spend it? "

Liuli remembered that the old lady had spent the past few years for her, and now that the man is no longer there, she said sullenly, "It's nothing good."

Aunt Su glanced at her, seemed to see her thoughts, and said: "Even if the old lady is gone, there is me. Why don't we set up a banquet and invite the sisters to have fun?"

Liuli frowned when she heard the word "banquet". In the past few years, there have been family banquets in Fanfu, so why hasn't anything happened?She didn't want to join in the fun anymore.But in the past two years, she has always received gifts from Huanhua and the others, and she has never given anything back. Now she has to show it.After thinking for a while, he said: "If you want to show off, just invite Huan'er and the others to get together, and others are fine. It's not suitable to show off too much, after all, it's still in the old lady's filial piety."

Aunt Su said: "I know what to do on this level. Whoever you invite is up to you, and I'll help you find what to eat."

Liuli smiled and said, "Then thank you, mother."

The discussion here was settled, so Aunt Su started to do it without mentioning it.Liuli was afraid that she would be tired and cause the root cause of the disease again, so she intentionally told her to just pick up the existing dishes in the kitchen and make a table.

For more than a year, there has not been any serious gathering among the girls. Huanhua was also very happy when he heard that Liuli was going to celebrate her birthday in Yishou Garden, and asked her, "Is that for all the girls, or just some?" Liuli was also worried about this matter, she didn't want to invite Yuhua at first, the atmosphere would not be good if she was there, and it might not be possible to invite her.But if you just don't invite her, it's easy to cause people to misunderstand. Moreover, it's not bad that there are conflicts between her and Yuhua, but this is compared to the inside of the long house, and they are still in the same room.

The downfall of Mrs. Yu is not only for her, but also the prestige of the head of the house. The more powerful the Qi family is, the harder she will trample on the head of the house. No matter how cautious and witty Liuli herself is, she can't avoid that she is the head of the house. this item.Just like she needs the He Mansion to support her status as the concubine of the Shangshu Mansion, she also needs the status of the eldest house to raise her status as the nine girls in the mansion. How strong can she be on her own? Woolen cloth?
Therefore, she has always been conflicted about Yuhua, and she will never give in on Yu's issue, but she doesn't want to disclose this conflict to the outside world so that others can take advantage of it, so she tries to avoid talking to her as much as possible. When we met, we never mentioned moving back to the long house.But Yuhua may not think so, this is the crux of the matter.

Huanhua also guessed a little bit of her thoughts, but didn't know that she was hiding an unspeakable past in her heart, thinking that she was still in trouble because of Mrs. Yu, so he said: "Even if Da Furen is not good at all, we They are also sisters, and the third sister is pitiful without her mother by her side, so don't blame her all the time."

Liuli couldn't help sighing in her heart, she is not as pitiful as her mother, no matter how pitiful she is, she is not as pitiful as herself?Knowing that Huanhua is straightforward and soft-hearted, he said, "I'm not blaming her, I'm afraid she's blaming me. Your third sister always wants to release Mrs. Yu again. From my standpoint, I will never let her That's why she and I will never be like me and you. If you can please her, I have nothing to refuse. "

After hearing this, Huanhua smiled and said, "It's fine if you agree, I'll try it."

Liuli smiled and said: "I know you are the best person. When you get married in the future, I will definitely give you a golden Buddha!"

Huanhua spat at her: "Marry and marry, you are so old, and you still talk nonsense!" As he stroked his handkerchief and looked into the distance, Fen Nenjiang's cheeks couldn't help but blush.They are already twelve or thirteen, and it is the age when love first begins, whenever these words are mentioned, they always provoke a lot of charms.

After Huanhua has been influenced by her ears and eyes for the past few years, although she is no longer the foolish and foolish girl she was back then, she is still naive. Because of the status of the Qi family, she has gradually risen to the top, and she has become the uncompromising master and girl in the mansion.Liuli entrusted this matter to her, first to let her experience it, and second, to use this matter to see Yuhua's attitude.

One day when he came out of Wutong Courtyard after class, he suddenly saw Mrs. Nie wandering under the gate of the main courtyard with her head half-hooked, as if she was in some embarrassment.Since Yanhua got married, Liuli didn't pay much attention to Sifang, so she didn't hear any rumors.At this moment, she didn't want to pay any attention to her, so she and Shuhua Huanhua walked away from her.

Shuhua looked back at Mrs. Nie, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid it's coming for you. If you can hide from the monk, you can't hide from the temple."

Liuli was puzzled when she heard that, "How do you know she's coming for me?"

Shuhua smiled and said, "Just wait and see."

That's what she hates, she always speaks half a sentence and leaves half a sentence, which is very unpredictable.Liuli paused, and decided to ignore it.

Since Shuhua's big wedding date is set in August, the time to stay in the mansion is not long, so the sisters often stay with her.Huanhua and her stayed in the Yishou Garden until dinner time, and Liuli wanted to save the meal, but Mrs. Liang sent someone to remind her, so they had to go.

As soon as Rui'er put the food on the table, Nie's voice came from outside the front door: "Is Miss Jiu in the house?" The curtain welcomes Mrs. Nie in.

Liuli put the chopsticks on the side of the bowl, stood up and said, "Hurry up and get some more bowls and chopsticks for the Fourth Madam."

Nie waved her hand and said, "Don't bother me, I'm just passing by, just sit down and leave."

Liuli thinks of Shuhua, she hates this girl, but she always has a bit of predictability.So he got up and let her go to the side flower hall, and let Haitang serve tea.

Nie sat down and looked at Liuli without speaking for a long time.Liuli glanced at it from the corner of her eye, secretly waiting to see what kind of moth she was going to do again, and didn't speak.Haitang served the tea, she stretched out her hand and made a please, and sipped it lightly.Nie also picked up the tea.After taking a sip, he raised his head and said in surprise, "This tea is Emeiqing tea from Sichuan?"

Liuli smiled and said: "Fourth madam has good eyesight, it is the Emeiqing before the rain this year, also known as Zhuyeqing."

Nie said: "Ching Ming is just around the corner, why did you have new tea from Sichuan and Sichuan here? Now you may not be able to sell it on the streets outside."

Liuli said: "My grandfather's student, my uncle is in Sichuan, and when he sent a letter a few days ago, he happened to send me a few packets."

Nie was surprised: "You really still have your uncle in Sichuan?"

Liuli put down the tea bowl, "That's right. My grandfather took in two students, and now one is in Jinling and the other is in Yu'an, Sichuan." She glanced at her and said, "Why, is the Fourth Madam here to ask for proof? It’s not a secret that Grandpa has two students, and one of them runs a private school in the south of the Yangtze River, and the other runs a tea business in Sichuan and Sichuan, both of which have nothing to do with the government.But Nie's reaction made people puzzled.

Mrs. Nie glanced at her, and said awkwardly, "It's not about asking for confirmation. I just heard from your fourth uncle that you have a master uncle in Yu'an, so I want to ask you to inquire about something."

Liu Li said: "Madam, why don't you come and listen."

"You know, your fifth brother is now arguing about getting married to the fourth girl from Dongge University's scholar's mansion. I can't resist him, so I have to agree. But when we go to visit the old lady's grave tomorrow, When I came back to shelter from the rain in the corner pavilion, I ran into the wife of Pan Renli, the left imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. I don’t know if you still remember that when Yan girl was drafting in the palace, she once had a fight with the second girl of Pan’s family , and was later reprimanded by the queen?"

Liuli remembered that there was such a thing, and said, "I remember. How is Mrs. Pan?"

Mrs. Nie sighed, and said: "We offended the Pan family, but we didn't know that the second girl Pan was accused of being married to Princess Qingyi's youngest son. After getting such a good marriage, she still remembered it. In the pavilion, he was chatting with Mrs. Qi, and he said, intentionally or unintentionally, that the ancestral home of the Grand Master Luo was originally in Yu'an, Sichuan and Shu, and he had only moved to Beijing with his family a few years ago. I heard that the man came to Beijing to discuss this matter last year. It’s just that this girl Luo insisted on regretting the marriage, and the matter between the two families has not yet been settled. When I heard this, didn’t it come to me clearly? These days My heart is always up and down, our Tingbang is a well-behaved official young master after all, since this girl has a marriage contract, she shouldn't involve us anymore! Otherwise, what would we become? But your fifth brother is a stubborn donkey, saying yes This girl from the Luo family doesn't marry, and she hasn't come back to the house for a few days, I can't do anything about it, so I come to ask you to write a letter to your uncle to find out what's going on."

After Liuli heard this, she thought to herself that Mrs. Pan's willingness to tell this story may not be out of good intentions, and only people like Mrs. Nie who always treat others with a small heart would think so.
