Red makeup against the world

Chapter 504 Little Grass
But when he came out, he found that there was no one around except her seat, and the shadows were so thick that it made people feel frightened.

Holding the lantern in her hand tighter, Yun'er swallowed a mouthful of saliva, walked outside the main room door, and asked softly, "Second Young Master? Are you there?"

After a while, no one answered.

Could it be that the Second Young Master went out at this hour?Forget it, go back and rest, thinking about it tomorrow.

Just as he was about to take a step, the door opened with a creak, and Wu Zhengxiang's tall figure appeared in front of the door.His face was hidden in the darkness, and the light from the lantern was so weak that it was difficult to see the expression on his face clearly.

He only heard him ask lightly: "What's the matter?"

Seeing him, Yun'er immediately stopped being afraid, walked over with the lamp in hand, and said with a smile: "The servant girl fell asleep like the second young master, and didn't hold a lamp."

After entering the room, she lit a few candlesticks, and the warm lights came on, making the empty room a little more alive.

"It's so late, the second young master should rest. The maidservant is here to thank the second young master, thank you for saving the maidservant's life." She stuck out her tongue out of fear, patted her chest and said, "Yun'er thought, I can't escape tonight."

As he spoke, he found the clean room at the back, and came out with a copper basin: "Second young master, the servant girl just found the kitchen and boiled hot water. I'm calling to wait for you to rest."

Seeing this little maid walking around talking to herself, Wu Zhengxiang found it quite interesting.When she was in Chen's courtyard, she was supposed to be a sweeping girl, and no one trained her.Even the pronouns change back and forth, sometimes as a maidservant, and then as a cloud.

However, when she was in Chen's house, it was also thanks to her confusing self-proclaimed.He only decided to save her life on the spur of the moment when he heard the name "Yun'er". His mother's name also had the word "Yun".

"Don't worry. Let me ask you, who gave you your name?"

Yun'er's eyes were blank, and she recalled: "The servant girl doesn't know either. As long as I can remember, I have been raised by Granny Fan. She calls me Yun'er, and others call me that too."

Wu Zhengxiang nodded, Granny Fan should be the most commonly used child in the house.

"When did you enter the mansion?"

"When I was ten years old, Granny Fan said that I could do some work and I looked neat. It happened that the house was buying a little maid, so she brought me here."

"The name Yun'er, don't call her in the future." Although she was saved because of this name, it violated her mother's taboo after all.Looking at the weeds growing wildly in the yard outside, Wu Zhengxiang said, "Let's call it Xiaocao."

"Thank you, Second Young Master, Xiaocao." Being given a name by him, Xiaocao was so happy that she just wanted to jump up.

She was talking to herself before, trying to find something to do, but she was restless.For fear of being rejected by the second young master, where can she go?Now that the name is given, it will belong to the second young master's name, so there is no need to worry about it anymore.

She is still very immature, only eleven or twelve years old, has little experience, and doesn't know much about many things.But the second young master saved her, so she regarded him as a savior.

That Granny Fan is right, she does look neat.It was a mess just now, and I didn't see clearly.Now that she has washed her face clean, even if there are bruises on her forehead due to kowtow, it will not affect her delicate facial features.

Her smile, the joy from the heart made her smile look extraordinarily clean.

Wu Zhengxiang was startled, and Xiaocao laughed, with a bit of Xu Wanzhen's charm in it.I couldn't help asking a few more words: "Madam is sick, and I won't come to trouble you during this time. I usually seldom come back to rest. During the day, you eat with those two women. When I'm not around , if someone comes to look for you, you should be smart, find a place to hide, and wait for me to come back."

When he said a word, Xiaocao nodded once, and when he finished speaking, she hurriedly said: "Xiaocao just looked at it, this yard is very big, and it is very easy to hide."

Wu Zhengxiang looked at her helplessly, this little girl's manners were really bad.Forget it, saving people to the end, he hasn't been so kind in a long time, so let her go.

Two years later, when Xu Wanzhen came in, just leave it to her to teach her.The maids around her are more loyal than each other, and they will fight with their lives for her.Even Wen Mulan, whom he sent over, was gradually subdued by him and spoke to her.

Thinking of his unmarried wife's ability, Wu Zhengxiang's lips curled into a gentle smile, softening his sharp lines.

Xiaocao fetched hot water and came in, looking at Wu Zhengxiang with such a gentle expression, he was stunned for a moment.It turned out that the second young master was so good-looking when he was not fierce.

……

In Duke Zhong's mansion that night, I don't know how many people slept soundly.

At least the main courtyard where Mrs. Chen lived had tossed all night, and did not rest until dawn.

Physician Hu came to check the pulse, and said that Chen's heart had been stagnated for many years, and he could not relax, which led to the stagnation of liver qi.Right now, he was so angry that he couldn't relieve himself all of a sudden, and his blood surged up, causing him to faint.

But this kind of emergency comes and goes quickly, so it's not a big deal.According to the prescription he prescribed, he boiled the medicine and poured it down. After more than an hour, Mrs. Chen woke up.But after all, I am getting old, and this time I hurt my body again, and I won't be able to recover for a while.After drinking the bird's nest porridge, he fell asleep again.

Imperial Physician Hu invited Mrs. Lu to the outside room alone, and prescribed a prescription for long-term recuperation, and told Mrs. Chen to stay in bed and rest, not to get angry easily.Liver qi stagnation can be large or small, it is not easy to give birth, and there may be some accidents.

Although he spoke in an obscure way, but Lu Shi could tell that Chen Shi might have a short life.

Tightening the veil in his hand, Lu thanked him calmly, gave the consultation fee, and ordered Dr. Hu to go home.

After finishing this matter, she was free to deal with the servants in Chen's room.

Let Xueying gather all the people in the courtyard under the corridor, light a few pine torches, and illuminate the courtyard in every detail.

Sitting on a high-backed chair, Mrs. Lu said in a deep voice: "You are all old people in the mother's room. I shouldn't have said this. But my father asked me to deal with my mother's illness. After all, I am in front of the family. It’s just too difficult.”

When something like this happened, all the servants in the yard were trembling, knowing that they couldn't get away with it.

Chen Shi winked, Xueying took a step forward, and asked, "Who is the old lady at the second gate? Who is the old lady looking at the gate of mother's courtyard? Stand up."

The two women stood in front tremblingly, but the second young master barged in all the way. He has long legs and big feet, how could they stop him?Even if he wanted to run ahead and come in to report a letter, he couldn't catch up with him.If something happened to the wife, they could only admit that they were unlucky.

Glancing at them lightly, Lu said: "You two will be fined for half a year and a month. Pack up and go to mother's dowry village in the eastern suburbs at dawn."

This punishment was just right, and the two wives were convinced.

Xueying asked again: "Which maids and mother-in-law are on duty in the yard? What are they doing?"
