Chapter 38: Concubine Hui is a little afraid of her?
In the East Third House, the master and servant spent a long time recording all the items in the mansion that might be related to Tong Jia Qingtang.
Yinzhen handed the task of dealing with these items to Gao Wuyong, then left the study and returned to Danruoju.
In the bedroom, the warm yellow candlelight flickered constantly, occasionally making a loud noise.
Xiyu hooked a writing brush on the index finger of her right hand, gently supported her chin with her palm, and leaned forward slightly, supporting herself on the edge of the table.
The big words on the paper seemed to be spinning in circles before my eyes.
Gradually, her upper and lower eyelids began to close uncontrollably.
She tried hard to keep herself awake, but sleepiness still swept over her like a tide.
Xiyu couldn't help it, slowly closed her eyes, her chin slipped from her palm, and her head sank suddenly.
She woke up instantly and blinked hard, trying to dispel the sleepiness.
However, after only a moment, the light in his eyes disappeared again, his arms that were originally supporting him fell down, and his body began to fall from side to side.
The slender neck slowly drooped down as if it had lost its support, and the furry little head nodded lightly, one by one, like a chick pecking at rice.
The brush in his hand scribbled uncontrollably on the paper, leaving behind a trail of black marks that intertwined with each other, like an abstract painting.
The way he forced himself to write looked kind of cute.
Yinzhen gave a doting smile, then tiptoed forward a few steps. Before she woke up again, he stretched out one hand to hold her head steadily, and put the other hand around the young lady's legs.
Then, he lifted the person into the air effortlessly.
Xiyu noticed someone was around and struggled to open her slightly heavy eyelids. When she saw the familiar jawline, she closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully, rubbing the man's chest affectionately.
Yinzhen stopped, lowered his eyes and spoke softly, "Awake?"
However, no one answered him.
He shook his head and smiled helplessly, then laid the little concubine flat on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
The little concubine changed her posture comfortably and buried her head in the quilt. With the ink stains on her face, she looked like a lazy kitten.
Chunshi had just wrung out the handkerchief and was about to walk to the bed when her hands suddenly felt empty. She looked in the direction where the handkerchief disappeared in surprise.
Then he saw the always proud, dignified and serious Fourth Master sitting down beside the bed. He lifted the loose hair from Lady Fu's forehead with one hand and gently wiped the stains off her face.
Those focused and serious eyes seemed to be looking at a treasure that was unparalleled in the world.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
This rare scene made Chun Shi stunned. She even forgot what she should do at this moment. She just stood there stupidly, reducing her presence.
Finally seeing the Fourth Master's order for her to leave, Chun Shi left quietly as if she had been pardoned.
The next day, Xiyu woke up early and sat up, and the quilt on her body was lifted up as she moved.
She touched her face in a daze, completely unremembering how she got back to bed yesterday.
By the way, there are still limited-time tasks that have not been completed!
Xiyu looked at the sky outside and saw that it was just getting light.
It was still early, so she washed up quickly and took the remaining half of the calligraphy copy to find her connections.
"Madam Royal, have you missed your granddaughter-in-law in the past few days?"
Xiyu arrived at the Cining Palace with ease, a smile on his face, and greeted the empress dowager like an ordinary junior.
The Queen Mother enjoyed it very much. She felt happy and healthy when she heard her voice.
"You little lazy bug, you came here so early in the morning. You must have something you want me to help you with."
The Queen Mother gently poked her smooth forehead with her fingertips and spoke in a reproachful tone.
"No way, I came here because I missed the Royal Madam."
Xiyu laughed and said coquettishly in a low voice.
After having breakfast with the Queen Mother, Xiyu asked someone to bring out the holly orchid that she had been carefully caring for recently.
"Oh~ You are really capable, this flower was almost killed when it was originally placed in my palace."
The Queen Mother's eyes were filled with surprise, "In just one month, it has blossomed so luxuriantly."
"As long as the Royal Madam likes it."
Xiyu smiled faintly and looked well-behaved.
To her, all plants have the same roots, are rooted in the soil and live on the nutrients in it.
As a ginseng spirit that is thousands of years old, her body is surrounded by spiritual energy, and it is easiest for her to nourish things with her energy.
If she couldn't do it before, it was because her meridians were damaged and her spiritual power was low.
But now, it's almost healed.
If ordinary animals and plants stay around her for a long time, they will absorb her spiritual energy and become full of vitality. If they have some spirituality, they will have a chance to transform.
Just don't be like her and do it after the founding of the country.
Xiyu collected her wandering thoughts and stared at the flowers on the table.
"Today you accompanied me for breakfast and brought me the orchids that I carefully nurtured. What do you want to ask of me?"
The Queen Mother saw that she had something to say, and a smile appeared in her eyes, "I am in a good mood, you should seize this opportunity to speak, maybe your wish will come true."
Xiyu smiled embarrassedly and pulled out the copybook from his sleeve.
"The Queen Mother is very knowledgeable in the palace. I have a piece of calligraphy here that is very well written. I like it very much. I wonder if you can recognize which famous teacher wrote this calligraphy?"
The Queen Mother was also very curious when she heard this. It was unexpected that someone's handwriting would be so appreciated by the fourth son's wife who didn't like writing.
She took the copy of the calligraphy and moved it slightly away. She frowned slightly and squinted her eyes to look at it carefully.
"This handwriting is somewhat familiar, but I can't quite remember it."
She waved to Nanny Fang Lan who was waiting on the side, "Come and help her."
"This handwriting..."
Nanny Fang Lan thought for a moment, her eyes gradually became clear, and then she raised her head and glanced in the direction of the Empress Dowager.
Xiyu seemed to see hope and asked in surprise, "Mammy, do you know?"
"It's somewhat familiar, but I can't remember it right now." Nanny Fang Lan shook her head slowly, "Why don't you leave this copybook with me first? If I remember it, I'll send someone to the East Third House to tell you, okay?"
Hearing this, Xiyu showed a little disappointment in her eyes. Looking at the nanny's expression just now, she thought she knew.
I guess there’s no way I’ll get the answer from the Cining Palace today.
"OK then."
Xiyu put away her disappointment and chatted with the empress dowager for a long time. They talked about folk stories and legends, and also told a lot of knowledge about diet therapy.
As people get older, they seem to develop a strong interest in health care.
Before I knew it, I had been chatting from sunrise to sunset.
Calculating the time, it’s already You time.
Seeing that the empress dowager was still in high spirits, Xiyu stood up with a slightly shy look on her face.
"Madam, the Fourth Master will soon be dismissed. I will come to talk to you another day."
The Queen Mother felt a little unsatisfied after hearing this, but it was not good to hinder the young couple's relationship, so she could only nod at her lovingly.
"As long as you get along with the fourth brother and his wife, go back quickly."
Xiyu knelt down and walked out, but unexpectedly, she ran into Concubine Hui who had been under house arrest for a long time.
She was stunned for a moment, then gently placed the handkerchief on her shoulders.
"May your Majesty, Concubine Hui, be well and safe."
I heard that the Queen Mother decided to release her because the New Year was approaching.
Concubine Hui nodded with a forced smile and moved away from her.
For some reason, she felt that Concubine Hui was a little afraid of her.
it's wired……
But right now, she has more important things to do.
