Queen's Development

Chapter 58
Because it rained all night, the bluestone-paved streets were washed clean, and the air was damp, unusually fresh and comfortable.

In such an atmosphere, Yuzhi's heart gradually calmed down, and she boarded the Guanyin Bridge step by step.

It was almost noon at this time, and because it was raining, there were not many people coming and going on the bridge.

Yuzhi stood on the bridge with an oiled paper umbrella, looking ahead, waiting for the female doctor Ma to come.

After waiting for half an hour, Yu Zhi followed Lin Jia's instructions and turned around to go back to the county government before waiting for female doctor Ma.

When walking past the rouge and gouache shop not far from Yuchuan Bookstore, Yuzhi casually took a look inside, and happened to meet Hu Yingzhi who was coming out of it.

Hu Yingzhi was taken aback when he saw Yuzhi walking outside alone, and hurriedly said, "You are——"

"I'm going back to the county government office!" Yuzhi replied with a smile, bowed her knees and saluted, and continued to walk forward.

Hu Yingzhi thought for a while, and felt that Yuzhi was born so beautiful and weak. Now it was raining outside, and there were few pedestrians on the road. Yuzhi was afraid that it was not safe to walk alone, so he followed the eagle from a distance.

As soon as she reached the small river bridge to the east of the vegetable butcher's shop, Yuzhi was walking forward when she suddenly heard someone calling her on the right, so she looked over and saw a woman wearing a veiled hat standing by the small river.

She hesitated a little and didn't walk over immediately.

Seeing that she couldn't come, the woman raised the veil hanging from the veiled hat, revealing a long horse face with a pair of tiny eyes embedded in a bulbous nose—it was the female horse doctor.

When Yuzhi saw a black-covered boat moored on the small river wharf behind Nv Doctor Ma, she couldn't help but hesitated and looked around.

Seeing Hu Yingzhi, who was wrapped in white fox fur, slowly approaching on the Qingshi Street in the east, and his martial arts boy, Xiongying, followed him with an umbrella. The female doctor went.

When she arrived in front of female doctor Ma, she deliberately kept a distance, bowed her knees and saluted: "I have seen female doctor Ma."

Female doctor Ma looked at Yuzhi carefully, and couldn't believe her eyes. Although Yuzhi in her memory was beautiful, she was a little yellow-haired girl. She hadn't seen her for a few months now, and Yuzhi had grown a lot taller. Said, and it has become more beautiful, like a snow-white pear blossom blooming in the spring breeze, clear and beautiful, slim and graceful.

Due to the urgency of the matter, female doctor Ma was afraid of being discovered by Lin Jia's people, so she kept the story short and straight to the point: "Yuzhi, a few days ago a short and fat father-in-law came to see the second son, do you have any impression?"

Yuzhi glanced at her, rolled her eyes on purpose, lowered her eyes and said, "It's been a few days...I have to think about it..."

Seeing Yuzhi taking Qiao, female doctor Ma sneered in her heart, and said to herself: Dog meat is not on the table, no matter how beautiful Yuzhi is, no matter how beautiful this little maidservant is, she is from a small family after all, with shallow eyelids!

But such people are the best to deal with!

She took out a silk bag that she had prepared earlier from her sleeve pocket, lifted it with her hand, and looked at Yuzhi with bright eyes.

The silk gauze is very thin, and when female doctor Ma carried the gauze bag, the shapes of a few silver zippers inside were clearly recognizable.

Yuzhi's big clear eyes narrowed all of a sudden, and she smiled sweetly at the female doctor Ma.

Female doctor Ma handed the silk bag to Yuzhi.

Holding the gauze bag, Yuzhi felt that her hands were falling, so she smiled and said, "Ms. Ma, I overheard it that day!"

Seeing that the little girl Yuzhi was still being hypocritical, female doctor Ma was a little impatient, and said, "Hurry up!"

This time, Eunuch Ding went out of Beijing in a low-clothes order, and visited all the county princes' mansions in Dazhou that had qualified sons. Then he went to Qingzhou first, and met the eldest son Lin Yu and the third son Lin Yi. Came to Zhao County to meet Lin Jia.

Because of a suspicious case that year, the princess suspected that Eunuch Ding had something to say to Lin Jia under the holy order, and she was very anxious all the time. She was still waiting for news in Qingzhou, so she had to find out about Eunuch Ding and Lin Jia from Yuzhi earlier. The content of Lin Jia's conversation, and then rushed back to Qingzhou overnight to report to the princess.

Only then did Yuzhi close her smile, and said: "I was standing in the gap between the door curtains, and I heard the truth. At that time, Eunuch Ding and Second Young Master said, let Second Young Master stay in Zhao County with peace of mind and manage Zhao County well."

Doctor Ma looked at Yuzhi suspiciously: "Did Eunuch Ding just say that?"

"How is it possible!" Yuzhi smiled triumphantly, and continued, "Eunuch Ding then told the Second Young Master that although the Second Young Master cannot become a prince because of his weak health and cannot go further, he can also become a grand prince in the future." The minister of the Zhou court."

Yuzhi has a very strong memory, and she has the ability to remember what she sees and what she hears. Lin Jia only said it once, and she remembered it firmly.

Doctor Ma was ecstatic in her heart, she couldn't believe her ears, she stared at Yu Zhi for a moment: "Are you sure you heard such a thing?"

Yuzhi laughed and said, "Of course it's true! I heard the phrase 'the minister of the thigh', and I went to ask him what it meant!"

Female doctor Ma made up her mind and looked at Yuzhi contemptuously: "Yuzhi, after serving the second son well, the princess will naturally be rewarded. If there is any news, just keep it in my heart, and I will send someone to contact you again!"

Smiling, Yuzhi lifted the silk bag wrapped with silver zippers in her hand, and answered "yes" crisply.

Doctor Ma hurriedly turned around and boarded the boat.

The boatman sailed eastward in a black-covered boat and disappeared into the bridge hole.

Yuzhi knew that Hu Yingzhi and the eagle were nearby, but she was afraid that Nvma Ma would send someone to watch, so she stuffed the silk bag into her sleeve pocket, and walked west without holding her umbrella.

A thin scholar wearing a veiled hat and Confucian robes, carrying an umbrella, and a thin, dark maid came over from the southern bank of the small river, crossed the street, and followed Yuzhi slowly and far away.

Hu Yingzhi stood under the umbrella, quietly watching Yuzhi walking away and Lin Jia who was dressed as a scholar behind Yuzhi.

Xiongying whispered: "Sir, shall we still follow?"

Hu Yingzhi said lightly: "No need."

Lin Jia brought along A Lan, who was powerful in force, so there was no need to worry about Yuzhi's safety.

Back in the county yamen house, Yuzhi hastily entered the west wing.

Qingcha was in the room, seeing Yuzhi coming in, he hurriedly said: "Why have you been out for so long?"

Yuzhi smiled and said: "It's raining, the road is difficult to walk—by the way, have you delivered lunch to your brother Wang at noon?"

Qingcha smiled and said, "Give it to me. Brother Wang even praised my cooking skills. I didn't know that you wrapped the wontons in advance, and you also prepared the soup in advance!"

Seeing that Qingcha was happy, Yuzhi also became happy, and said: "As long as I don't tell you, and you don't tell me, who knows!"

Since Wang Qingyu was there when she went to see female doctor Ma, can Wang Qingyu's suspicion be resolved?
Qingcha also laughed, and sat down on the couch next to Yuzhi.

Yuzhi took out the silk bag from her sleeve pocket, deftly untied the four corners tied together, spread it out on the couch, and found a total of four small silver coins, each about one tael, a total of four taels of silver ——This Concubine Li is not generous enough!

But maybe it was female doctor Ma who stole money from it, that's unknown.

Qingcha came over curiously and said, "Yuzhi, where did you get the money?"

Yuzhi smiled slightly: "My master will reward you!"

She casually picked up two small silver spoons and handed them over to Qingcha: "It's an old rule between the two of us - we get half when we meet!"

Qingcha was very friendly with her, so she put it away without evading it.

At this time, voices came from outside, Yuzhi pushed open the window and saw Lin Jia who was dressed as a scholar came back, she hurriedly said: "Master is back, I'll go and have a look!"

After listening to Yuzhi's talk about the whole process of seeing the female doctor Ma, Lin Jia smiled slightly and said, "Yuzhi, you did a good job in this matter!"

Yuzhi smiled slyly: "Then what do you reward me for?"

Seeing Yuzhi smiling cutely, Lin Jia also smiled: "What do you want?"

Afraid that Ah Lan who was standing outside on the porch would hear it, Yu Zhi moved closer to Lin Jia and said in a low voice: "When I get old in the future, it's time for me to be married. Those servants of the right age in the palace can be chosen by me, okay?" it is good?"

She wants to choose a beautiful boy who is smart, good-looking, gentle, and whom she eats to death as her husband!

Lin Jia: "..."

He picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp, then said: "Yuzhi, I'm hungry, you go to the small kitchen to have a look!"

Yuzhi knew that Lin Jia was weak and hungry, so she couldn't care about anything and hurried out.

Sitting there, Lin Jia always felt sour and uncomfortable.

In the evening, Ah Chi came back from the outside in a hurry, and went into the Ming room with a bundle.

Before going to take a bath, Lin Jia handed a rectangular brocade box with rose red and gold to Yuzhi.

Because she was worried that Yuzhi would refuse, and she had to make the request of "I choose the servant of the palace", Lin Jia's attitude was very sincere, and her voice was very gentle: "Yuzhi, this is the thank you gift I ordered for you to choose!"

Yuzhi happily accepted it: "Thank you! Thank you!"

Although she didn't know what the young master gave, Yuzhi was still very happy to receive the gift from the young master.

Seeing that Yuzhi was so happy, Lin Jia finally had the stone in her heart drop to the ground—as long as Yuzhi didn't mention "the servant of the palace is up to me", he would pay any price.

Yuzhi carefully opened the message, and found that the inside was covered with black velvet, and there were two rows of twelve four-season flower hairpins neatly inlaid on it. These flower hairpins were made of red gold or silver, and inlaid with gems, pearls, crystals, agate, Jadeite, enamel, etc., one by one are dazzling, and the end is exquisite. I can't help being overjoyed, and my eyes are shining: "Young master, can I share this box of four seasons flower hairpins with tea?"

Lin Jia knew that Yuzhi and Qingcha were very good, so she said, "Since I gave it to you, you can do whatever you want!"

After receiving Lin Jia's words, Yuzhi closed the brocade box carefully, and when Lin Jia entered the bathroom, she carried the brocade box along the veranda back to the west wing.

Qingcha was making a tube top for Yuzhi, when she saw Yuzhi coming in, she hurriedly said: "I'm about to finish it, you can try it later and see if it suits you!"

Yuzhi is developing very fast now, and there is a tendency to grow from a flat-chested girl to a big-breasted girl, and the tube top always needs to be done again soon.

Usually Yuzhi is too busy, but Qingcha is free, and the tube tops made by Qingcha are better than Yuzhi's. Later, she contracted all the tube tops that Yuzhi wears.

Yuzhi held the brocade box in front of Qingcha as if presenting a treasure: "Come on, there are twelve hairpins in total, five for you, five for me, and one for Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Jin'er each!"

The moment Yuzhi pressed the message, Qingcha couldn't help exclaiming: "Oh my god, it's so beautiful! Even the water dragon and water lotus don't have such beautiful hairpins!"

Yuzhi shared the tea with a smile.

At the end of the distribution, a gold-inlaid jade butterfly chasing chrysanthemum hairpin and a gold-inlaid crystal plum flower hairpin were left, and Yuzhi was taken to Nananjian, ready to be given to Xu Erniang's mother and daughter.

Mrs. Xu was crying with her arms around Jin'er, when she heard Yuzhi talking outside the curtain, she hurriedly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and said with a forced smile: "Miss Yuzhi, come in quickly!"

Yuzhi gave the two hairpins to Second Lady Xu, and Second Lady Xu was very grateful.

Looking at the tears of Second Lady Xu, Yu Zhi secretly wondered, and quietly remembered it in her heart.

In a blink of an eye, it entered February.

One day, Lin Jia motioned Yuzhi to look at a set of blue servant's clothes, hats, shoes and socks on Luohan's bed.

When Yu Zhi saw it, she was about to jump up, her eyes sparkled, her voice trembled slightly: "My lord, do you want me to pretend to be a book boy and follow you to serve in the county government?"

Lin Jia smiled slightly: "Are you not happy?"

Yuzhi rushed over and hugged Lin Jia: "Ah, I'm so happy! I'm so happy!"

Lin Jia was held tightly by Yuzhi, and her body froze there.
