An idea flashed in Ye Qinglan's mind, and she suddenly understood.
This is not just a stomachache caused by drinking too much cold tea, it is simply a good thing that happens to girls once a month! This is the first time after traveling in this body, no wonder she is not prepared at all...
God, when is it bad? Why did you choose this place at this time? You don’t need to look to know that your clothes must be stained...
Ye Qinglan's face was no longer pale, but had a strange blush. It seemed both ashamed and inexplicably angry. Mrs. Zheng looked on, feeling confused, and asked: "What exactly makes you uncomfortable?"
"
Gu Xiyu also looked over with concern, and with Gu Xinian's seemingly unintentional gaze staring at her face... Ye Qinglan was on the verge of tears. How could she open her mouth about such a thing?
Gu Xinian frowned unconsciously, and tried his best to hide the concern in his calm tone: "What's wrong with you? If you feel uncomfortable, just say it."
Ye Qinglan: "..."
After all, Mrs. Zheng was more attentive and she was someone who had been here before. When she saw Ye Qinglan hesitating and hesitating and her face turned red, she noticed something was wrong. She asked tentatively: "Is it the fault of my daughter's family? I'll have someone find some clean ones for you.
Bring the clothes."
Unable to escape anyway, Ye Qinglan could only nod her head heartily. Her slightly pale face was stained with two blushes, giving her a strange beauty.
Gu Xinian was stunned for a moment, and finally reacted. Looking at Ye Qinglan's shameful and embarrassed look, he somehow felt both funny and inexplicably moved.
When a girl has her first period, she becomes a girl...
Mrs. Zheng whispered to the maid next to her to find some clean clothes and things needed to prepare for menstruation. She lowered her voice deliberately so that even Gu Xiyu didn't hear her clearly.
Gu Xiyu asked Ye Qinglan in a low voice: "What are you feeling uncomfortable about? Why are you so hesitant and unwilling to say it directly?"
Ye Qinglan could only whisper a few words in her ear. Gu Xiyu suddenly realized it, and after being stunned for a moment, she whispered: "I haven't yet!"
This is not surprising. Everyone's body develops differently, and the timing of menarche varies from person to person.
Ye Qinglan hummed in a low voice. For some reason, she didn't even have the courage to raise her head to look at Gu Xinian. He was no longer a young boy. He must have guessed what was going on with her...
Gu Xinian put down his chopsticks as if nothing had happened: "I've finished eating and will go back first."
Mrs. Zheng responded with a smile.
Ye Qinglan pricked up her ears unconsciously. When Gu Xinian's footsteps gradually faded away until she could no longer hear them, she breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked up, she met Mrs. Zheng's understanding and gentle eyes: "Female
When the child grows up, he will have to go through this. Don't be afraid. I will ask Mother Huang to accompany you to the inner room to change clothes later." Mrs. Zheng said implicitly, but she actually asked Mother Huang to teach her how to cope with menstruation.
.
Ye Qinglan thanked her hurriedly, and Huang's mother walked over with a smile and accompanied Ye Qinglan to the inner room to change clothes.
In modern times, menstruation is very simple, and sanitary napkins are simple and easy to use. But in ancient times, what was used to deal with menstruation was a completely unfamiliar thing. It was clean plant ashes wrapped in soft cotton cloth... It’s a lot of trouble and I don’t need to go into detail.
, in short, all kinds of discomfort. Even walking feels awkward.
Anyway, the shame was over. Ye Qinglan calmed down, and after coming out of the inner room, she thanked Mrs. Zheng again: "Sorry for bothering my aunt."
Mrs. Zheng smiled and said: "What trouble is this? A girl has truly grown up when she has her menstruation. She can get married and have children later. This is a happy event. Don't move around in the next few days.
Now, take a good rest in Lengyue Pavilion. I will ask the kitchen to make you some nourishing red date and lotus seed soup." He paused and then said: "If you want to go back, that's okay, I will send a carriage to take you back to Changyuan.
Uncle’s Mansion.”
According to common sense, when a girl has menarche, she should be taken care of by her mother. It is indeed inconvenient to stay in other people's homes. However, Ye Qinglan's situation is quite special. Even if she returns to Changyuan Uncle's Mansion, Xue will probably not have this
Take care of her leisurely. It's better to stay.
Ye Qinglan responded respectfully: "I'd better not go back. It's not convenient to go back home now. I just have to trouble my aunt."
Mrs. Zheng gave a few words of gentle comfort and then told Mother Huang: "You will stay with Sister Lan for the next few days and take care of her carefully."
Mother Huang agreed with a smile, but she was secretly surprised.
She is the most useful housekeeper around Mrs. Zheng. She helps Mrs. Zheng take care of all the trivial matters every day. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is half a housekeeper. Asking her to take care of a cousin who is having menarche is really overkill. In fact, she is overqualified.
, just find an older and experienced housekeeper at will. But the madam specially sent her to be with the cousin. From this, we can also see that the madam attaches great importance to the cousin. It seems that she needs to take good care of her.
That's it...
Mother Huang worked carefully and carefully, and she took good care of Ye Qinglan in the next few days. She was very particular about three meals a day, plus snacks and supper. Soups such as brown sugar water and red date soup, which are good for qi and blood, were brought to Ye Qinglan in turn.
I don't bring the same thing for several days. I also often mention some taboos or things that need attention, which is really a great effort.
Ye Qinglan stayed up for four days and finally got over her menstrual period. After her body felt comfortable and clean, the first thing she did was to take a thorough bath. After putting on clean clothes, she felt quite refreshed.
The feeling of rebirth.
Ye Qinglan sat in front of the dressing mirror, letting Ruixue and Hongluan wipe her hair. Gu Xiyu sat aside and asked curiously: "How do you feel now? Is it any different from before?"
Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled: "There is indeed something different."
"What's the difference?" Gu Xiyu asked carefully.
Ye Qinglan thought for a while and smiled: "Anyway, it's just a little different. You'll understand when you experience this." It's like a girl suddenly growing up. That subtle feeling is difficult to describe in words.
Gu Xiyu listened with half-understanding, and finally did not ask any more questions.
Ye Qinglan looked at herself in the mirror. Her young and tender face seemed to have grown up suddenly, quietly exuding the charm of a girl. Her face was shiny and seemed to emit light. This face seemed to look more and more like her previous life.
Not only the appearance and contours, but also the temperament and charm are all very similar.
Ye Qinglan expressed that she was very satisfied with this point.
Gu Xiyu suddenly said: "I haven't seen my eldest brother these days!"
Ye Qinglan smiled and said nothing. Gu Xinian was finally a little considerate. If he showed up in the past few days, she would be extremely embarrassed.
Just as I was thinking about it, there were familiar footsteps at the door, and then the voices of the maids greeting me: "I've seen the young master."
Gu Xinian hummed casually, and then pushed the door open. Gu Xiyu greeted him happily: "Brother, we were just talking about you. I haven't seen you for a few days."
Gu Xinian responded absently, but his eyes drifted over and met the eyes of the girl in the mirror.
The bronze mirror was a little blurry, but the two lines of sight were unusually bright. Ye Qinglan felt her cheeks were slightly hot and subconsciously lowered her eyelids.
The only voice heard in the room was Gu Xiyu's voice: "Brother, what have you been busy with these days? Why don't you come to see me?"
Gu Xinian looked back and said with a smile: "Of course I have business to do. Now it's finally over. Let's take a rest tomorrow. How about I take you out to relax?"
Gu Xiyu was never enthusiastic about leaving the house and glanced at Ye Qinglan hesitantly.
But Ye Qinglan was eager to get out of the house and get some fresh air. She suddenly became energetic, turned around and asked, "Where can we go to relax?" Shui Ying's big eyes were shining with anticipation.
Gu Xinian's eyes softened unconsciously: "The spring scenery is just right now, I will take you to White Horse Lake for boating."
When Gu Xiyu heard about boating on the lake, her pretty face suddenly turned pale, and she shook her head reflexively: "No, I won't go." She has been afraid of water since she fell into the water when she was a child. Let alone boating on the lake, even if she is by the lake.
I don't dare to walk around.
Seeing her reaction, Gu Xinian's eyes dimmed slightly.
At that time, he was just a young boy with the beginning of love. Because of Shen Qiuyu's tearful cry, he softened his heart and made the wrong decision, which deeply hurt his only biological sister. In disguise, it caused Gu Xiyu's subsequent behavior.
Solitary and introverted. Whenever I think of these, the unspeakable feeling of regret comes to my heart...
"Cousin Xiyu," Ye Qinglan's gentle voice sounded: "We are bored in the house every day. It is rare that cousin Gu has time to take us out to relax, why not go?"
Gu Xiyu bit her lip and said pitifully: "I'm afraid of water, can't I change my place?"
Gu Xinian felt sour in his heart, and was about to nod when he heard Ye Qinglan gently comfort Gu Xiyu: "Actually, water is nothing to be afraid of. When you fell into the water, you were still young, so it was inevitable that you would be frightened. But now you have grown up.
Now, Cousin Gu and I are with you again. What else is there to be afraid of?"
Gu Xiyu looked at Ye Qinglan blankly. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes were no longer so panicked.
Ye Qinglan smiled and continued: "Cousin Xiyu, you must have never been on a boat when you grew up! It is early spring now, the willow branches on the lake are swaying lightly, and the water is sparkling. Sitting on the boat and enjoying the lake scenery must be a wonderful experience.
It's absolutely beautiful. It would be a pity not to go and see such beautiful scenery. Moreover, when you actually get on the boat, you will find that it is not as scary as you think."
Heart disease requires heart medicine. Gu Xiyu's autism was caused by falling into the water. If she wants to truly recover, she must overcome this psychological obstacle. With such a rare opportunity, she must completely cure Gu Xiyu.
Gu Xiyu trusted her very much and almost obeyed her words. If it were for other things, I am afraid she would have nodded in agreement. But it happened to be a boat trip on the lake...
