Shattered Glass (Shang Li) - Chapter 30
Mei Li closed her eyes and just finished the bath. She was refreshed. Her exhaustion broke out. She tried to relax her stiff limbs. She moved, hoping to find a comfortable posture.
It was very noisy. Although her courtyard was the quietest corner of the other courtyard of the palace, the noisy voices still rushed up and down, and her temples were a little sore.
The maids on duty outside the door Yue Qiang and Yue Mo were sitting under the porch and basking in the sun while speaking in low voices, and she could hardly hear each word clearly.
“Xin Fujin’s style is big enough…” Don’t have any intentional silence, it should be pointing to the door, “The pasted happy characters, the red silks that have been hung are all replaced, and they are all new.”
“People are Dafujin, so naturally they won’t use what we have left.”
The voice was lowered.
“Sister, our life will be sad in the future… I heard that Xinfujin brought more than 20 houses, 40 or 50 people, just behind the main house, and the prince had to divide a plot of land behind the main house to build a separate house. Don’t mention the dowry. I heard that the money for our prince’s wedding is only one hundred thousand taels of white money. This… how can we compare?”
“It’s not necessarily.” Yue Qiang chuckled a few times, “The prince is very concerned about this… one night and one night… I will serve in the morning, just the white silk on the ground…”
“Dead girl!”
Both of them laughed and laughed for a while, and the older Yue Mo sighed, “That’s just a few days of freshness. The maiden who made small…big ones for others is still in that way, alas.”
“Not necessarily, give birth to a son as soon as possible, also the eldest.” Yue Qiang disagreed.
“What’s the use of that?” Yue Mo smiled at her, “If you rush forward, you are also a bastard.”
Mei Li turned over and faced the bed. It was early summer. She wrapped the quilt tightly, and she even felt chills.
She slept very unsteadily, so as soon as Jing Xuan opened the door, she immediately woke up. It should have just passed, why did he come back so early? She didn’t move because she was preparing for the big wedding and the emperor didn’t send him another messenger, so she was so leisurely.
“Did she eat lunch?” She heard him ask Yue Qiang Yuemo who followed in softly.
“Fan Fujin has ordered that she doesn’t need lunch, and will eat it at night.” Yue Qiang said whisperingly, with a guilty conscience.
“Bastard! Did she say that she wouldn’t eat if she didn’t eat it?” Jing Xuan was immediately angry, and his voice rose a little higher, making the two maids knelt down in fright.
“The prince, the servants also saw that Fang Fujin was too tired and couldn’t bear to wake her up. The master only slept for two hours after she finished washing.” Yue Mo was more sophisticated and courageously defended.
“Stupid things!” His anger did not fade.
Mei Li didn’t want to stay out of the matter anymore, turned around, half-legged on the pillow and responded softly, “I don’t want to eat.”
He glanced at her with cold eyes. She was lying on her stomach lazily and tenderly, with a few locks of her long black hair hanging on her chest, a soft and charming style he had never seen before, and the great anger… instantly disappeared. .
He walked over to sit on the side of the couch and hugged her. The two maids blushed and their heads dropped lower.
“Isn’t hungry?” He snorted, eating one meal a day, how could such a thin body sustain? !
She shook her head, her body sore that she couldn’t support it, and she wanted to lie back.
He found that her pale little face was different from the usual blush, and her forehead was still densely covered with fine sweat. He twitched, touched her forehead, and really got a fever.
“You!” He frowned, and his anger rose again. “If you are sick, just say it! So many minions, have you seen it with your eyes?”
She lay down, half-closed her eyes, “Small illness, just lie down.”
“Bastard!” He scolded again, not knowing who he was scolding.
“Aren’t you going to get a doctor?!” He grabbed the teacup on the bedside table and slammed it to the ground. There was a clatter, and Mei Li jumped.
Yue Mo Yue Qiang ran out like an escape, and was drunk coldly by him, “Should I go with both of them?” Yue Mo cleverly ran away to find an imperial doctor, and Yue Qiang grimaced and rubbed her face. come back.
“You go get the manager.” Jing Xuan said quietly.
Yue Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, and ran away quickly in response.
Mei Li didn’t speak any more, he wouldn’t listen to what she said, so why bother.
The manager ran profusely, and followed Yue Qiang.
“Resign all the girls in this room!” Before the general manager asked to get up, he indifferently ordered.
Yue Qiang let out a cry, knelt on the ground and started crying, the manager was a little confused.
“It’s all the same as the dead, why keep it? Give me another pick!”
The manager underestimated his anger, wiped his sweat, and persuaded: “My lord, the whole government is preparing for the marriage right now. If these maids are not able to use them, they will only take a few days. When Fu Jin enters the door, they will be the side. Fujin carefully selected a few good ones.”
“Oh?” Jing Xuan sneered, “How many years have you been in this mansion?” He suddenly changed his conversation.
The old housekeeper was puzzled, but still answered honestly, “For forty years, the old prince has been taking care of this other courtyard for his master since he was here.”
“Forty years? You have worked so hard.” Jing Xuan raised his hand and asked the boss to stand up, “You are really too old, and your mental head is not enough. I said, even the maid is as dead as a wood. It turns out that the manager is not useful.”
As soon as the old butler heard this, he just got up and knelt down with another soft leg. This little prince’s temper has been enough for everyone to drink a pot since he was young.
“I…I don’t need to change the maid.” Mei Li can’t bear it anymore, what is he doing? She is just a feast, and the old housekeeper is right. The minions are so busy with marrying the mistress, she will only make people hate if she makes such a fuss. She struggled to sit up, firmly supporting the bed next to her to prevent it from falling down. “The maids are all very nice… it’s me,” she lowered her eyes, “…I just passed it if I wanted to bear it, I didn’t tell them.”
He turned his head and glared at her without saying a word, and there were cold light lines on the corners of his mouth.
The room was quiet, he didn’t speak, no one dared to say anything. There were rapid footsteps outside, and the visitors were not clear about the tension inside, so they invited Jing Xuan casually at the door, “The minion is here to find the manager. The wall behind the main house is finished, and the workers wait to check out.”
The old butler kept winking at him, and the little deacon paled. He looked at the master’s face and fell silent immediately.
“Crack!” This time it was the antique vase that was smashed to pieces, and the broken porcelain shattered onto the old housekeeper and Yue Qiang without daring to make a sound.
“What stinky score!” When Jing Xuan was angry, his face was extremely solemn, but his eyes became darker and beautiful. “Who can give them a house or a building in the other yard?! Give the workers money quickly, call it They get out! That’s it, they can’t live without letting them figure out their own way!”
Mei Li slapped her eyelashes suddenly. It turned out that he was angry. Suying’s dowry promise was too heavy and overwhelming the betrothal gift of the Qing Palace, so Lord Qing was unhappy.
She lay down slowly, seeming to care about her…just anger. Why should he have trouble with her subordinates, making people feel that she is not clear about her weight, and winks.
“Go down! Go down!” He waved his hand happily, and the change of maid would naturally be over.
Because the prince was angry, all the servants who came to clean were trembling. He ordered the food to be brought, and those who served were also very cautious. Mei Li didn’t want to argue with him. He asked her to eat her. Although the food she ate during her illness was like wax soil, it became more and more stuffy in her chest, but she did not refuse.
As soon as the dining table was removed, the imperial doctor had already been brought in by the old housekeeper himself, and Yue Mo Yue Qiang carefully put down the bed tent, holding tea and grinding, which meant that he would make up for it.
The imperial doctor only took a pulse for a short time, gave an awkward smile, and was about to write a prescription on the bookcase farther away from the couch.
“Don’t look at his complexion?” Jing Xuan pressed his eyebrows when he was not careful about him, very displeased.
The old lady was quite stubborn as a scribe, smiled bitterly, and said confidently: “No, Fu Jin is thin, pale, with cold hands and feet?”
“Yeah.” Jing Xuan snorted coldly, reluctantly affirming his judgment.
“The prince doesn’t need to worry, Fujin’s illness is only due to loss of vitality. Can Fujin always be awake at night, sleep lightly, and easily disturbed?” The old lady raised her voice, trying to make Meili in the bed net hear clearly.
“Yes.” Before Mei Li could speak, Jing Xuan answered her naturally.
“This is the main cause of the lack of vitality. There is…” The old lady gave Jing Xuan a weird look, “Fu Jin recently… is too exhausted.” He said meaninglessly.
Jing Xuan frowned, obviously understanding.
“The old minister here prescribes the medicine to calm the nerves, sleep, and replenish vital energy. Fujin must work hard to ensure sleep… um… a little restraint, this disease will naturally heal.”
“Reward, see off!” As soon as the old doctor finished writing the prescription, Jing Xuan made a cold expression.
After taking the medicine, Mei Li was groggy and wanted to sleep.
The illness has dragged on for seven or eight days and it hasn’t gotten better. The low-grade fever has finally subsided, and there is just no trace of strength in the whole body.
The summer was clear, and she asked the maid to open the doors and windows and let in fresh air and sunshine. It was a little strange. Five days later, it was the big day for Suying to marry. Instead, the house was much quieter, probably all ready?
Since she was sick, he hasn’t come to her room anymore… She feels a little relieved. It will be sooner or later that his heart will cool off from her, or she will get used to it earlier.
Yue Qiang took a food box and came in with a grin. Since the last incident, the maids in her room have been much more diligent and careful. “Fufu Jin, this is the sesame sesame sesame biscuits you said last time that they are delicious. You can eat it. Now it is much more convenient to buy it. It used to be a big circle. Now the east side is newly opened, and it happens to be a small market. “
Mei Li is a little strange, “New Gate?” Isn’t the east side of the main house located? How could you open a door there?
“Yeah, don’t you think our side is much quieter these days, the prince ordered everyone to go to the east gate. Those craftsmen servants don’t have to pass by anymore.”
Mei Li nodded. It turned out to be for the convenience of preparing a new house. He always does whatever he wants.
Seeing the green flowers and trees exposed at the door, she quickly thought, would he be taking care of her illness? This thought made her laugh. When she liked him, he pushed her away. When she didn’t like him, he married her… How would he care about her feelings? The punishment of wishful thinking, she has already suffered too much, it is impossible for her to make such a stupid mistake again.
