In order to welcome his mother and eldest sister-in-law, Yue Wangshu specially asked people to burn two more pots of silver charcoal in the main room. Therefore, when Mrs. Yue and Mrs. Chen came in, they only felt the heat coming from the floor. Although it was only an imperial palace, there was a
The furnishings are extremely luxurious. Needless to say, the furniture is all made of rosewood, a gilt auspicious animal incense burner, colorful glass vases, bonsai with gold and jade, as well as glass bead curtains, woven gold curtains, and Suzhou embroidered flower and bird screens.
In front of me, there were bursts of coughing.
Hearing this voice, Mrs. Yue couldn't help but her eyes turned red and she was about to rush in.
Yue Wangshu could only shout: "Mom, don't come in!"
Mrs. Yue couldn't help but stop. She quickly gathered her skirt and saluted: "My wife is offended! Please don't blame me, Madam Shuyuan."
Yue Wangshu hurriedly explained: "I am still sick, so I have to do this to prevent the disease from being transmitted to my mother and sister-in-law."
After hearing this, Mrs. Yue's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and she quickly wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "What's wrong with Shuyuan? Why hasn't it gotten better for so long?"
This was not a problem for Yue Wangshu. She had already thought about it, so she coughed twice and said, "The imperial doctor refused to tell me, but I have been coughing for so long, and I can guess a thing or two myself. So I don't dare to talk to him.
Mother and sister-in-law are getting closer."
These words are no longer a hint, they are simply stated!
Mrs. Yue's face turned pale instantly: "Could it be..." Consumption? Mrs. Yue did not dare to say it.
Mrs. Chen was so frightened that her hands trembled and she couldn't help but take two steps back.
Yue Wangshu said casually: "Please mother and sister-in-law, please sit a little further away."
Seeing this, Mrs. Chen rushed up to help Mrs. Yue, "Mom, sit down and speak slowly."
Mrs. Yue sighed sadly, then took a few steps back and sat down on an armchair nearby. She couldn't help but shed tears, "My miserable daughter! She finally got favored by the Holy One, but she got such a serious illness!"
Thinking of this, Mrs. Yue couldn't help but worry. Could it be that the emperor was worried that Wan Wan would not survive this year, so he allowed Wan Wan to see his family?
Mrs. Yue asked hurriedly: "The imperial doctors are highly skilled in medical treatment. Even this kind of disease can be cured, right?"
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but feel a little guilty, pitiful parents in the world, so she could only say: "The imperial doctor will do his best, please don't worry, mother."
How could Mrs. Yue feel relieved? She wiped the tears on her face and murmured: "It will definitely be cured. Shuyuan is still so young..."
Yue Wangshu didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only pretend to be sick. If she met Mrs. Yue in a healthy manner, Mrs. Yue would definitely ask when she would return to the palace. There was an eunuch from the imperial capital next to her, and she always
It can't be said that the emperor has forgotten her a long time ago, right? If he really forgot, Mrs. Yue would not be arranged to see her.
But she can't pretend to be sick all her life, right? Madam Yue already knows that she is in Huangzhuang, and she will definitely come to visit again in the future!
Ah, once you lie, you will need countless lies to make up for it.
Mrs. Chen comforted her weakly: "Shu Yuan is auspicious and has the blessing of the emperor. She will definitely recover."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Mrs. Yue nodded repeatedly, "Wanwan has been a blessed child since she was a child! Out of thousands of beautiful girls, only five were selected in the end, and Wanwan was selected. This is a great blessing!
"
After saying this, Mrs. Yue thought of the other four, but they had all entered Youning Palace! Why did this year's show girls look so lucky? Mrs. Yue hurriedly sighed three times in her heart.
If those four blessings are poor, her Wanwan will certainly not be blessed!
Yue Wangshu had no choice but to change the subject: "Father, how are my brother and Beichen?"
Mrs. Yue sighed: "Your father is still the same, always likes to drink wine, and I can't control it. Fuguang studies very hard, but it's a pity that Qiuwei is also known as Luosunshan this year!"
As she said this, Mrs. Yue couldn't help but feel sad. Fuguang failed after repeated attempts, and Wanwan was in this situation again. Why were her children so miserable?
"Beichen, on the other hand, is finally a little more well-behaved now. Unfortunately, there were too many delays in the past few years, and I still don't know when I will be admitted to the scholar examination." Mrs. Yue sighed endlessly.
Yue Wangshu could only feel relieved: "My father only drinks a little wine and is not an alcoholic, so why should my mother care? My brother studies hard and is still young, so why worry about not being able to go to high school? As for Beichen, he is sensible now and is willing to work hard.
It's a good thing, mother should be happy."
The family tradition of the Yue family is already very good. Even the two brothers who were born as concubines had to study for seven or eight years, and were sent to take care of shops and properties because they were dull and immature.
Mrs. Yue smiled bitterly, "As long as a man is willing to work hard, there will always be a way out. A woman's way out can only be with a man. Shuyuan must take good care of herself!"
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but feel a little sore in his nose. She took advantage of her daughter's body and deceived her like this...
Mrs. Yue couldn't help but ask: "How about Shu Yuan's food, clothing and chewing? You haven't been neglected, have you?"
Yue Wangshu said: "You will know something about my house if you look at it. The emperor treats me very kindly."
Mrs. Yue quickly glanced around and saw that only the palace maid was guarding the outer room, so she whispered: "Shu Yuan is young and beautiful. The emperor will naturally remember her and take care of her. But if time goes by and the emperor has many things to do, I am really worried."
…”
Yue Wangshu wished the emperor had forgotten her.
But obviously this is impossible! The emperor's illness has not been cured yet, and he still needs his wet nurse!
To put it bluntly, even if the disease is cured, the queen and the eldest princess still need treatment.
The uses of wet nurses are unlimited. People who eat whole grains will always fall ill.
For the sake of his long life and health, the emperor will always treat her favorably.
Yue Wangshu sighed and said: "I will get better." - She had no choice but to get better.
Mrs. Yue sighed sadly, thinking that she would read more Buddhist scriptures later, but now she could only hope for the blessings of the Bodhisattva.
At this time, Li Yue, the eunuch of the capital, came in and said, "Mrs. Yue, Master Shuyuan is sick and weak, so you should not be too exhausted." This is the meaning of expelling guests.
Although Mrs. Yue was extremely reluctant to leave, she still stood up and said, "Then my wife...can I still come to visit Shuyuan another day?"
Li Yue smiled and said: "There is no need to have strict rules in the palace. Madam can come at any time."
Yue Wangshu had a headache and rubbed his eyebrows.
"Thank you so much, father-in-law!" Mrs. Yue thanked her quickly and quickly stuffed a piece of silver into Li Yue's sleeve, "Ms. Shuyuan, I hope your father-in-law will take care of you more!"
Li Yue quickly and respectfully said: "I will definitely do my best."
Mrs. Yue thanked her again and again, and then left with Mrs. Chen.
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but feel sad. For the sake of her daughter's well-being, Mrs. Yue treated Li Yue, the imperial eunuch, with utmost courtesy.
After seeing off Mrs. Yue, Li Yue returned to the inner room to resume his duties. He said slowly: "Mrs. Yue rewarded this slave twenty taels of silver. Look at this..."
Yue Wangshu had already come to bed, "Just keep it. Go back and pack some silks and furs and send them to Yue Mansion."
