Difficult to be a Concubine - C295
Xia Yu returned with a smile on her face.
Mu Rousang thought for a moment, then laughed: It’s time to fix it, the memorial archway was something my brother cultivated before entering Office of the Crown Prince, so it’s time to add on another, this time using white jade, you send someone to inform sister-in-law that I’ll pay half the money for the repair, although I’m a married woman, my surname is Mu.
Spring Breeze said from the side, “Even if Madam didn’t say so, I’m sure Young Master would have helped.”
Mu Rousang said: “You, hurry up and fix your dowry, has the room been painted? Have you looked at the furniture carefully? ”
The spring wind is the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, which happens to be neither hot nor cold.
“Madam, you don’t have to worry. With Chun Yan and Chun Yi helping this servant, this servant here has quite a bit of free time.”
“That’s right, madam. The dowry you give this servant isn’t any worse than the dowry an ordinary family would get from marrying their daughter.” Spring scenes in general laughed very happily.
Oh, this time, when Mu Rousang was preparing a manor for Spring Breeze, she also prepared it for her along the way. Originally, it was a manor with two hundred mu of land, but she had split it into two, Spring Wind and Spring Scene.
Chun Feng said from the side, “Spring Scene, it’s about time you changed your personality. Men love to be gentle and petty.”
However, Chun Jing rolled his eyes and said, “You like to eat radishes, but I like to eat cabbages. Everyone’s taste is different, so should I dress myself up like a man? Why can’t I act according to what I like?”
Mu Rousang suddenly felt a headache, the greater the spring scenery was, the more righteous the person became, what kind of words are these?
“You two keep your voices down, Aunt heard it carefully, and I’m going to give you two food again!”
Aunt was the only one who could suppress the spring scenery. For no other reason than that Aunt saw that her etiquette was not right, so she punished her for the last thing she loved to do — copying scriptures!
If her days went by smoothly like this, then Mu Rousang would undoubtedly be happy. From the moment she teleported to this time and space, she had experienced difficulties and setbacks. She gritted her teeth and slowly pushed her brother to the highest level, but she had also successfully retreated, willing to be an ordinary girl who washed her hands and cooked the broth.
It is said that the world is unpredictable.
The young girl who was supposed to be on the 5th of May suddenly stopped. There was no other reason other than Ruidi having smallpox …
The anxious Empress Dowager was unable to sleep and eat, and quickly became thinner.
At this moment, the capital trembled again. The people who had just calmed down were agitated once again.
“Send an imperial decree to This Dowager requesting for a world-renowned doctor to treat the Emperor’s illness.”
The appearance of the small pox in Great Zhou Dynasty indicated that the man was dead.
After Mu Rousang heard this, she was extremely shocked. She frowned as she sat at the bottom of the pavilion in a daze. It seemed like she was going to use something from the cow? It was a pity that she was not a doctor, and that Mu Rousang was unable to do something as difficult as treating smallpox.
A few days later, there were rumours that the noble ladies of the capital were fighting secretly again. The Ruidi was in danger, they might not make it anymore!
Mu Rousang’s heart tensed up, was she really done for?
She wanted to save Su Ruirui, but what kind of excuse and excuse would she use? She was not alone. There was a husband who doted on her, a brother who doted on her to the bones, his sister-in-law, the people of Zuo Mansion, and the matriarch of the Yang Mansion. These were all her ties.
“What do you think happened to Madame?”
Xia Yu secretly discussed with Xia Chan.
Xia Hua came over with a plate of pastries and said: “You all go ahead, Madam has no appetite!”
“You yourself aren’t in the mood to eat, yet you’re telling us to eat!?”
Xia Chan replied unhappily.
“It’s Madam who said so. She doesn’t want to eat it. She’s already giving us four rewards.”
Xia Hua was also in a bad mood.
“Stop quarreling, I think you two should secretly return to the marquis for this matter.” Xia He frowned and thought for a while, then remembered that he should tell this to the male owner.
“Is that okay?”
After all, the Aunt Liu had taught a few people to them back then. Even if they died, they would only be Mu Rousang’s little girls and not the others.
“Master Hou dotes on Madam so much, I think we should still talk about it.” Xia Hua was also very much in favor of it.
“What have you been these days Madam? But I can’t guess what she’s thinking at all? ” Xia Yu muttered.
Xia Chan suddenly said: “Why don’t you go and tell Aunt in secret?”
Ever since Aunt Liu had taught the four big girls for Mu Fengchai, she had completely handed over the matters of the Inner Academy to Chun Yun. She himself moved to a remote courtyard in the residence.
Xia Yu got the idea and said: “I’ll go look for Aunt right now! All of you, keep your eyes on that room. I’m afraid that Master has something on his mind.
The few of them immediately said that they knew what to do, and urged Xia Yu to quickly search for Aunt Liu.
When Xia Yu arrived at the Liu Courtyard, Aunt Liu was sitting on the veranda making tea, watching as seven or eight little lass s walked back and forth training their posture.
“Xia Yu, you’re here, it’s just nice, madam sent someone to bring me some new tea a few days ago, you should come over to have a try, but the first batch of spring tea, the tea leaves are tender, it tastes the best.”
xanthium’s round eyes widened as he stuck out his tongue at Xia Yu. Then, he slowly stood up and shook his clean and white fur, acting very cute and shameless. He was wearing a pink coloured vest and wiggling his fat bottom as he walked towards Xia Yu with small graceful steps.
It raised its little head and stared at Xia Yu’s hands.
Aunt Liu could not hold back her laughter: “This little guy was spoiled by the little lass in the courtyard. All day long, he would use his tasty snack to coax it.
Xia Yu was suddenly enlightened!
He quickly took out two peanuts, peeled off its shell and placed it on his palm for it to eat. Unexpectedly, xanthium sniffed and walked away.
When a little girl in the courtyard saw him, she laughed and said, “xanthium likes to eat sweet peanut candy.”
Xia Yu was instantly speechless!
Aunt Liu glanced at the little girl, who giggled and stuck out her tongue, then continued to walk with a straight back.
“He does have a character similar to the Spring Festival Gala.”
Xia Yu looked at the little girl before replying.
Originally, I didn’t want to take her in, but Madam said that she had no sisters in the Northern Lands. She was lonely, so she allowed her sister to stay in the courtyard and watch over her, and if that didn’t work, she would send some silver taels back to her hometown.
Aunt Liu didn’t say anything about Mu Rousang’s decision. Owner Mother had the bearing of a Owner Mother; even if it was out of spring, he still had to go this way.
Xia Yu unwittingly turned her head back to look at her for a second, and then remembered her in her heart. Aunt Liu nodded on the side, she had not wasted her efforts to cultivate this little girl.
“Why did you come here today instead of serving in front of Master?” Aunt Liu asked again.
Xia Yu pondered the entire way here, she reckoned that if there was anything else, Aunt Liu would probably know about it, so she asked: “What else could it be? “Of course it’s for Master.”
Then, he told her about Mu Rousang’s abnormality in the past few days. Aunt Liu sighed and said: “I live in my courtyard everyday and I do not walk around as usual. I did not know that such a big thing has happened in the capital.”
The Aunt Liu was stunned. In the end, Xia Yu did not know the reason why Mu Rousang acted like this, but the Aunt Liu had specially instructed him to keep some attention on him these few days. Don’t let Young Master find out.
She thought for a moment and said, “Maybe something will happen!”
Xia Yu’s heart tightened, the warm wind of May sent chills down her spine!
“Aunt, is there any way to resolve this?”
Aunt Liu’s eyes seemed to see through the world, and she said: “Go back and serve Madam well, I’ll go over in the afternoon.”
Xia Yu was helpless and could only return empty-handed, then told Mu Rousang about Aunt Liu’s afternoon visit.
“You went to see your aunt?” She hasn’t come to see me in some days. ”
Mu Rousang nodded, and did not continue talking.
After her afternoon nap, Aunt Liu was already waiting outside. Mu Rousang called Xia Yu and the others over to help her wash up, casually took out a violet lotus flower hairpin and tied up her hair. She also wore a comfortable set of silk clothes, then walked out.
“Aunt is here. After listening to Xia Yu’s speech back and forth in the morning, I made Auntie’s favorite fresh flowers and pastries.”
Mu Rousang sent Xia Yu to get it, while Aunt Liu came over and sat beside her.
She lowered her voice and said, “Madam, your complexion hasn’t been good recently.”
Perhaps because he was facing the Aunt Liu, Mu Rousang did not act pretentiously, and said: “The current Emperor has some connections with my brother and I, when we first rose to fame, I knew of him. When I heard that he had smallpox, I was very worried, but was afraid that my husband would be worried, so it was not good for me to ask.”
The Aunt Liu sighed, she had already guessed the reason long ago. Mu Rousang was not a cold and emotionless person, putting aside the relationship between Su Ruirui and her, the Mu siblings had quite a deep relationship with Su Ruirui, so worrying about Su Ruirui’s safety was normal.
“This servant was fortunate to have heard the Emperor mention it before, that it was Madame who saved the Emperor.”
He didn’t expect that this rescue would lead to a bad fate.
“Why mention it about the past? “Now that he’s the Emperor, there’s no need to bring up these matters again.”
She saved him because she didn’t want a single person to die in her own home. Moreover, the two siblings were still young, so she had no choice but to save them in order to not cause trouble!
“Madam, why don’t you make another move?” The Aunt Liu hesitated for a while before bringing up the matter.
Mu Rousang laughed bitterly, although the Aunt Liu was her slave, she still had the love of serving the Empress Dowager.
“Aunt, I’m not a doctor!”
Even if she could save him, she could only find an opportunity to do so without leaving any trace. If he managed to arouse the suspicion of others, his family would probably be in trouble.
