Mingruo glanced at Aunt Cui and darkened her face: "Auntie was yelling like this so early in the morning, but something urgent happened?"
"Today is the day when the young lady returns home from three dynasties. The madam is afraid that the young lady will miss the time, so she specially asked this old servant to come and take care of her." Aunt Cui first moved out the big Buddha statue of Mrs. Beigong.
"Oh, it turns out that my mother asked grandma to come and pat our door early in the morning." Ming Ruo straightened her sleeves and said, "My husband always likes to be quiet. I was frightened by the noise made by grandma just now. Now I am hiding in the back room.
If I refuse to come out, I don’t know what to do..."
Aunt Cui was stunned for a moment, then quickly walked into the inner room, only to see the 'young master Beigong' huddled in the bed holding the quilt.
Aunt Cui said softly: "Master, I will help you get dressed."
The 'young master of Beigong' stared in the direction of the door with a blank expression, turning a deaf ear to Aunt Cui's words.
Mingruo took a brand new set of clothes and walked to the bedside: "Husband, it's your turn to accompany me back home today. Please change your clothes and wash up quickly."
Seeing that the 'Master Beigong' still didn't move, the young lady had no choice but to say: "If your husband doesn't get up, I will go back by myself."
'Young Master Beigong' finally reacted and took his wife's hand: "I won't leave!"
There were many maids and nuns in the room saying all kinds of things, but Master Beigong just hid in the bed and refused to come out, and even held on to his wife and refused to let go.
The young lady had no choice but to sit beside the bed and ask, "Why is your husband so hot? Is it because you have a fever?"
Aunt Cui's heart was pounding at this moment, and she hid behind others and didn't dare to show her face.
"Xia Sheng, hurry up and call for a doctor." Mingruo ordered.
When Xia Sheng heard that the young master had a fever, he was frightened. The young master was not in good health, and every time he had a fever, it was very dangerous. If he didn't work for ten days and a half, he would never get better.
"Go quickly!" Mingruo said angrily.
"Yes." Xia Sheng quickly ran to the stable, asked the groom to quickly prepare the carriage, and hurriedly went to Jishi Hall to ask for the doctor.
Mrs. Beigong was afraid that her eldest daughter-in-law would be too stingy, so she specially asked Aunt Wei to see what gifts Butler Zhu had prepared when the young lady came back. She must not lose the face of the Beigong family.
Aunt Wei looked at it carefully. Although it was not too rich, it was not rude. Aunt Wei followed the old lady's wishes and added some donkey-hide gelatin and deer antler, and then watched the storekeeper carry all the gifts onto the carriage.
Aunt Wei told her about the gifts. As soon as she turned around, she saw Xia Sheng running out in a hurry: "Xia Sheng, where are you going?"
"Young master made Aunt Cui so frightened that she became feverish. The young lady asked me to ask for a doctor." Xia Sheng got into the carriage and urged the driver to hurry up and go to Jishi Hall.
What Xia Sheng said is very clear, but Aunt Cui is someone close to the eldest lady, so why did she go to the eldest young master’s yard so early in the morning?
Nanny Wei quickly went to Qingqiuyuan and asked the little girl what was going on before heading to the bedroom.
At this time, Mingruo had already asked all the servants to wait in the corridor, leaving only Qiu Shui waiting in the room.
Qiu Shui twisted a handkerchief soaked in cold water and handed it to the young lady.
The young lady's hand was held by the 'Master Beigong', and she could only use one hand to put the handkerchief on his forehead.
Aunt Wei walked a few steps and came forward to say hello: "Young Master, Young Madam."
"Mommy, no courtesy." Mingruo raised her hand with a sad face.
"The eldest young master is... having a fever?" Aunt Wei did not dare to touch the eldest young master's forehead. She touched the eldest young master's hand and felt it was as hot as a soldering iron.
Aunt Wei was startled. She originally thought that the young madam said that the young master was so frightened by Aunt Cui that the young master was just beating the people around the eldest madam.
Unexpectedly, the eldest young master really had a fever, and it was very serious.
Ming Ruo noticed that Si Haochen's hand, which had been touched by Aunt Wei, froze unnaturally. He was snickering in his heart, but it didn't show on his face: "Qiushui, go get a basin of warm water, and I'll wipe your husband's hands and face."
.”
"My slave, go right away." Qiu Shui hurriedly went to fetch water.
"Young master has a fever, wouldn't it be better to wipe it with cold water?" Grandma Wei suggested.
"My husband is already weak. If you use cold water, you may freeze your body." Mingruo stretched out her hand to twist the handkerchief.
Seeing that the eldest young master had his eyes closed but still holding the young madam's hand tightly, Aunt Wei was very discerning and quickly helped twist the veil: "Young madam, please take good care of the eldest young master first. I have to go and follow you."
The old lady replied."
If the eldest young master has a problem, the old lady will lose her temper.
"Mommy, tell grandma slowly and don't scare her," Ming Ruo instructed.
"Don't worry, old slave." Nanny Wei hurried to the old lady's main courtyard.
At this time, Mrs. Beigong had just finished washing herself and asked her mother-in-law to pass on breakfast.
Mrs. Beigong accompanied her and served the bird's nest porridge with her own hands and placed it in front of the old lady.
Mrs. Beigong just asked her what kind of return ceremony she had prepared for the young lady, and Mrs. Beigong told her one by one.
"Well, that's right. Lang Yue finally got a daughter-in-law who is willing to get close to her. You have to treat her well." The old lady was quite satisfied with Mrs. Beigong's performance. "You are also tired all morning. Sit down and use some together."
Bar."
"Thank you, mother." Mrs. Beigong didn't like to eat alone with others, so she rarely allowed others to eat in private.
The maid Si Xi who was serving at the side quickly served a bowl of porridge to Mrs. Beigong.
The second wife of Beigong came in with two maids. They arrived before anyone else arrived and said, "I want to see if mother has eaten her breakfast. I have just steamed the bean curd rolls for you to try."
When the second wife of Beigong saw that her sister-in-law had been left to eat by her mother, she thought to herself: What kind of thing did he do to suit the old lady's wishes, so that she deserves to be treated like this?
The second wife of the palace opened the food box with her own hands and placed a plate of bean curd rolls on the table: "Mother, please try it."
Si Xi picked up a bean curd roll and put it on the old lady's plate. Old lady Beigong took a bite and said, "It's soft, glutinous and fragrant. It's very good."
Sixi, take one for the eldest lady to try too."
As soon as Sixi picked up the bean curd rolls and put them on Mrs. Beigong's plate, before she could eat them, Aunt Wei came back.
Aunt Wei didn't care that Mrs. Beigong was here. She explained how Aunt Cui scared the young master to the point of fever.
Mrs. Beigong threw her chopsticks on the table: "Zhao Baozhu, what are you thinking about! A mother-in-law gets up early in the morning and asks people to take pictures of her daughter-in-law's door! I have never taught you this. Could it be?
Is this what your mother taught you?"
Mrs. Beigong was startled and quickly defended: "Mother clearly saw that my daughter-in-law just sent a useful person to help Yaohua prepare for her return home, and she was not asked to do anything else..."
"Hmph!" Old Mrs. Beigong stood up with a puff of sleeves, "I have crossed more bridges than you have walked, and those troubles in your belly cannot be hidden from me!"
"Mother, please be patient." The second wife of Beigong quickly stepped forward to help the old lady.
A group of people headed towards Qingqiuyuan in great numbers.
