boudoir

Chapter 21
Rui'er handed the hand stove to Liuli, and walked out lightly. Cuiying straightened the closet, took a look in this direction, and finally came over and said: "There is something, you can talk about it, girl. Don't be angry. I went to the warehouse just now Picking up the cotton, it happened that the thrush in the fifth girl's room was also there. Originally, I arrived first, so we should get it first, but do you know what the thrush said? What did she say about the nine girls? You should let them five girls, In terms of superiority and inferiority, we should give way to the fifth girl, so I squeezed the slaves away, and went first!"

Liuli paused for a moment, then started to write again.

Cuiying said: "The fifth girl came to beat you earlier, but now even her maid dares to bully you, girl is really good-tempered!"

Liuli said slowly: "I can't help it, I can't beat her, I can't beat her, I can't make trouble with her, she doesn't come to my door, I am already very satisfied." He Yanhua probably made no less than five shots.But she won't be able to bear it for long. Now she is under control and has limited mobility. As soon as the limelight passes, she will come.

Cuiying had no choice but to get up and leave.

Liuli was familiar with "Spring and Autumn" when she was a child, and sometimes felt that she was living in a small world. If Mrs. He or He Yu is the monarch, then she is the one who is the most unpopular and has to agree to exist. It's good that she is obedient, but if she is not obedient, the Yu family and all the rightful masters of the He family can strangle her lifeblood.Although she was far away, the target was obvious, and no one knew when one or two cold arrows would shoot at her.

Of course, it's a bit exaggerating to say that, but whether it's the heir of the emperor or the illegitimate daughter, everyone has to have the consciousness of survival when they are at a disadvantage.Of course, He Yanhua would not let go of the hatred that fell from her slap, but the cold arrow in front of her was Cuiying, not her.

Why did Cuiying add fuel to the fire and sow discord between her and Yanhua?She still has no ability to give the people around her a future, and it is impossible for them to really feel sorry for her.

When Tian'er came back, half of her body was wet, Rui'er hurriedly brought clean clothes for her to change.The big kitchen has to pass through three courtyards, a lake, and more than half of the garden. In weather like this, it is already cold when you bring it here, let alone raining and getting wet. The most memorable.

It would be great if I could cook by myself in Xiaokuayuan.

After lunch, Liuli was going to take a nap, and Ruier stood by the window to cut her clothes.Tian'er seemed to have caught a cold, and fell asleep after drinking a bowl of ginger soup. Cuiying said that she went to the front yard to find her sister for embroidery.

When she got up, Rui'er had already spread cotton on the lining of the cut clothes, but Cuiying hadn't come back yet.Liuli wanted to pour tea, Rui'er put down the scissors and came over, "Servant, pour some hot tea for the girl."

Fortunately, the water was still boiled with a small stove, and the fragrance of tea filled the room after a while.Liuli remembered that since the old man came out of his study that day, he hadn't seen He Yu, and he didn't know what he was up to?Is there something going on in the court?And Aunt Su, it stands to reason that she should have a private meeting with her, but until now she has not heard any news from her, which makes Liuli wonder if she guessed wrong.

Rui'er lifted the curtain, and suddenly said: "Girl, Tian'er seems to be seriously ill, her forehead is so hot."

Liuli got up and followed her to the next door.Tian'er was lying on a bed to the south, wrapped in two quilts, her cheeks were flushed, her tentacles were hot, but she was still shaking.

"It should be a fever, you go get a basin of cold water."

The 14-year-old Ruier obeyed her nine-year-old master and quickly poured a basin of cold water.Liuli took Tian'er's face towel from the washstand, and squeezed cold water to apply to her forehead.

"Bring some more cloth, and then go to ask if there are any dandelion and banlangen in the yard. If there are any, make a small pot of soup and feed her to drink."

Rui'er didn't say anything else, she brought in a few cloth towels and turned around to look for medicinal materials.

Liuli glanced back at her, then twisted the towel silently.

Cuiying came back and saw the situation, and said: "It's really the life of a maidservant, and it only takes a lot of rain to make it like this."

Tian'er was so hot that she couldn't speak, and was so angry that she shed tears.

After a while, Rui'er came in with Banlangen water, Liuli took it, helped her to feed most of the bowl.

Cuiying said: "Let Ruier come, how can I make the girl work hard?" She didn't move.Liuli watched her finish drinking, asked Rui'er to help her lie down and apply a towel, and went back to her room after sitting for a while.

That night Liuli rested early, and in the middle of the night she was suddenly awakened by the sound of water, thinking it was the lady on duty coming back, but suddenly heard Ruier talking, so she sat up: "What's the matter?"

Rui'er ran over: "Girl, Tian'er's fever is getting worse."

Liuli got out of bed in a cloak, and when she got to the next door, Tian'er was throwing up, she stretched out her hand to check, and it turned out that her fever was worse than in the evening.

"Go report to the housekeeper and ask a doctor."

Cuiying found it difficult: "The housekeeper has already rested early, and besides, it's impossible for a girl to open the door in the middle of the night."

Liuli said: "Then what should I do if I encounter such a thing on weekdays?" In her previous life, she was sick every three days, but she never encountered such an unlucky time, and it is true that the mansion did not invite a doctor in the middle of the night for a maid. precedent.

Cuiying said: "If the family has a baby, let her mother take it home first. If it is bought in, she can only move far away and wait until dawn."

Tian'er is a child of the family, so it is convenient to find a doctor after taking it out.So Liuli asked Cuiying, "Where is her mother working?"

Cuiying glanced at her and said, "Her father is farming in the village, and her mother is the nurse of the third master in the long house."

Tian'er's mother is Yu's son's nanny, which means Tian'er is the head of the house?Cuiying reminded her so clearly that Liuli was too embarrassed to pretend to be confused.

But that's normal, it's not normal for Mrs Yu not to let people in.From this point of view, it is even more impossible for Cuiying to belong to the Yu family.Liu Li pretended not to be able to figure it out, and said without hesitation: "Since she is from Da Furen's side, then Rui'er should go to the long room and invite her mother over."

Rui'er dressed and went out, Cuiying brought Liuli a stove, and after waiting for about two cups of tea, Tian'er's mother, Cheng Ma, came.

As soon as she entered the door, Cheng's mother rushed to Tian'er's bedside like a tiger pounced on a sheep, howling: "My son!" , was rolled up and staggered.

Cuiying complained: "Auntie didn't see people clearly and bumped into her. Miss Nine has such a precious body, if she gets bumped, can you bear it?"

Cheng's mother cried for a while, then pointed to the sky and burst into tears in a blink of an eye: "I don't know that Nine Girls are precious, and my son wouldn't have ended up in this field if she wasn't precious! She was so energetic when she came here , It’s only been a few days, how can I be so sick that I’m only half-breathed!...No way!” She groaned and suddenly got up: "I want to take my son to find his wife! I want my wife to make decisions for my son !"

After all, he really dragged Tian'er out of the warm blanket, put a padded jacket on her body without any reason, and went out the door with it on his back.
