"Dad, please calm down. It was an accident that the young master fell into the water. No one wanted it." Xu Ruoshui poured a glass of water and pushed it to Mr. Meng.
"Hmph." Mr. Meng took it over and took a big sip. "I told him a lot, but he didn't listen to me..." At this point, Mr. Meng suddenly stopped and realized that he had said something.
It was too much, so he said awkwardly, "I mean he actually let Bo'er play alone."
Xu Ruoshui listened to what Mr. Meng just said word for word, but she could only pretend that she didn't hear it, "Dad, it's getting late and you are tired. Why don't you go back and rest first? I will take good care of you here."
of."
The topic changed, and Mr. Meng became more relaxed, "Then I'll go back first, so you can keep an eye on me. If you don't have enough people, just come to me."
Speaking of the people who summoned him, Xu Ruoshui thought of calling someone over to ask whether it was a coincidence that Meng Tianbo fell into the water or someone did it deliberately. "There was no shortage of people in the yard, but now my daughter-in-law can't leave, otherwise dad will
Send a smart person over here and run the errands faster if something happens. We are women after all, and we can’t run fast if something happens."
"I know, the one named Xiao Shunzi today is the one who noticed Bo'er falling into the water first among so many people. He is quite smart. I will ask him to come over and be the errand for a while." The candidate suggested by Master Meng
Playing into Xu Ruoshui's hands.
Xu Ruoshui smiled and thanked Mr. An Meng.
When it was time to light the lamp, Xiao Shunzi came over. Since he was a servant, he could only stand outside the door and listen to the errands without the master's instructions. At night, he just went to the small woodshed next to the kitchen to make do, and came as he was called.
Therefore, if you meet a better master, you can get more money.
Xu Ruoshui was not in a hurry to talk to Xiao Shunzi. He just asked Yan'er to bring him half the money. There was no need to say more about his intentions.
After dinner, Mrs. Hu brought a person wrapped in black cloth into the Ningxiang Hall. After all, it was a dark night. Even if Xu Ruoshui saw him face to face, she couldn't see his face clearly, let alone whether he was a boy or a girl.
, thinking that her aunt was there, she did not enter the bedroom again.
When she calmed down, she suddenly remembered what Baomei had handed over before. She dug it out from her waist. It was a small piece of paper rolled into a strip. When she unfolded it, she saw the words "Beware of the food sent by Zi Yan" written on it.
, I didn’t expect that Zi Yan would change her mind so quickly. I was in a panic today, but I forgot about her. Fortunately, I didn’t cause any trouble, so I just let her go.
When Xu was approaching, Mrs. Hu took the mysterious man out again.
The concubine then came to look for Xu Ruoshui. She poured herself a glass of water, thinking she had something to say. Sure enough, she asked Xu Ruoshui to sit down and then spoke, "I'll find someone to take care of Bo'er's injury, but I'm afraid
If it happens again and again at night, you should put more thought into it and take more care of it at night."
"It's natural, please don't worry, Auntie." Xu Ruoshui bowed her head and responded.
"Also," the concubine cleared her throat and continued, "for the next few days, you can rest on the kang. After all, he is a patient, and it is always inconvenient for two people to squeeze into the same bed."
It was a bit obscure, but Xu Ruoshui understood it, and it was exactly what he wanted. He slept in the same bed with Meng Tianbo for a whole night, and fell asleep when the rooster crowed. "Write it down in late autumn, aunt
Please don’t worry.”
Is it true that it is just like what grandma said? She has become smarter and smarter. Is this a blessing or a misfortune? Bo'er, besides late autumn, mom doesn't know what else to give you. You can only rely on yourself, my aunt.
I sighed in my heart.
"I will go to Miao'an in two days. Did you remember to ask Mother Hu to get the medicine at the end of the year?" The concubine specifically mentioned the medicine given to Xu Ruoshui.
"Yes." After Xu Ruoshui nodded, the concubine got up and returned to Xiaoxiang Xiaozhu, but there was no one with her. Xu Ruoshui lit a lantern and sent her to the lotus pond. Naturally, there was a maid guarding the door to light the lantern.
When they returned to the house, the flower hall lit up the big lamp, and the light was bright. "It's strange, it's so late, who will come here?" The night was getting late, and the big lamp was usually not lit, so Xu Ruoshui and Yan'er quickly entered the flower hall.
, I heard a sweet voice from the bedroom outside the curtain, "Young Master, I have brought you something delicious. You can try it."
It's Zi Yan! She even brought food in!
'Be careful with the food Zi Yan brings', Baomei's warning still rang in his ears. Xu Ruoshui couldn't stand still for a moment. If Meng Tianbo got greedy and ate Zi Yan's food, and something happened, Master Meng would definitely not forgive him.
"Miss Zi Yan, it's so late, why haven't you put the baby in the house yet?" Xu Ruoshui opened the curtain and walked in. The first thing he saw was Meng Tianbo's expressionless handsome face.
Zi Yan was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a colorful bowl with a Fuwa gift in her hand. The orchid-slender hands were picking up the contents of the bowl, and the aroma filled the bowl. When she saw Xu Ruoshui say this, she retorted, "This slave has learned that the eldest young master
I was injured, so I brought the supplements given by the madam, wouldn’t this young lady allow it?”
"How could I not allow it?" Xu Ruoshui felt Meng Tianbo's eyes on her face, "It's just that the girl is pregnant, so the maid should do such rough work, or I can do it. Baomei, send me
Miss Zi Yan went back to have a rest. If she gets pregnant, everyone won't be able to finish their meal and walk around." Baomei was standing not far away.
"I won't bother you, young lady," Zi Yan said without letting go of the bowl, but it was just a bowl unless she held it in her arms.
"No trouble," Xu Ruoshui quickly took it with quick eyes and gestured to Baomei, who came over to help Zi Yan up. "Let's go back. The doctor told us to rest more in the first three months."
"Wait a minute," Zi Yan smiled at Xu Ruoshui, "I'll wait until the eldest mistress has fed the eldest young master before leaving. After all, it's a little bit of my heart that shouldn't be wasted." This was because she was afraid that Xu Ruoshui wouldn't give it to Meng Tianbo.
Eat it for yourself.
Xu Ruoshui was also prepared. He stirred it with a spoon and blew a few breaths, "It's too hot. How do you want the young master to eat it?" He stirred the spoon again and again. Suddenly, the whole Fuwa gift bowl fell on the ground.
He fell to the ground, making a "clang" sound, and Zi Yan's eyes almost fell down, "Young Mistress, did you do this on purpose?"
"Oh my, I'm really useless. I can't even hold a bowl steady. If I had known better, I wouldn't have taken the girl's job. Yan'er, Yan'er, please come in," Xu Ruoshui said with pity.
Yan'er came in and took a look at the things on the ground. He quickly said to Zi Yan, "Miss, please go back first. After the servants have cleaned up, I will come and sit down tomorrow."
Zi Yan gave Xu Ruoshui a dead look and said to Baomei, "Let's go." She gritted her teeth.
Xu Ruoshui couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and told Yan'er, "Next time, check the food Zi Yan sends before giving it to the young master."
Yan'er nodded while cleaning up, "I understand, this slave."
Xu Ruoshui then turned to face Meng Tianbo who was leaning on the pillow. His eyes were calm and not as eager as the previous days. "Tianbo is scared, right? Take a few days to rest..."
