wife and husband

Chapter 38

At breakfast the next day, Chu Yunfei went to court early in the morning. Princess Anyang accompanied Chu Yunfeng and his wife and asked carefully whether Shanzao was still used to it.

Shanzao smiled gratefully, "Thank you sister-in-law for your concern, everything is fine."

Although Princess Anyang had a beautiful smile on her face, her eye circles were slightly blue, she took two bites of chopsticks and then put it down, "I had dinner with Lord Hou in the morning, let's use it for the second uncle and younger siblings, there is nothing to do today , Second Uncle can take his siblings out for a stroll."

After finishing speaking, he called a steward to come in, "This is Steward Li of the Hou Mansion, Second Uncle only needs to tell him, and he will take care of everything." Then he looked at Mother Zhao sternly, "It's good to take care of the second lady, the second lady Now the body is precious, so I take care of it with all my heart.”

Everyone respectfully agreed.

Princess Anyang nodded in satisfaction, and smiled apologetically, "Second uncle, brothers and sisters, please do your own thing, I will take care of some trivial matters."

As soon as Princess Anyang left, Shanzao suddenly felt less stressed. It is not easy to have a princess sister-in-law.As the emperor's own sister, Princess Anyang's every move is perfect and impeccable. With such a sister-in-law, her aura is overwhelming.

After breakfast, Chu Yunfeng asked Shanzao with great interest, "Do you want to go shopping somewhere?"

Before Shanzao opened her mouth, she heard Zhao's mother say nervously, "Your maidservant is daring, Madam has not been pregnant for three months, and she was tired all the way a few days ago, there are many people outside, I am afraid that Madam will be bumped into."

They are all aware of Princess Anyang's methods, no matter whether she really values ​​Shanzao's belly or not, since she has said something in front of everyone, Mother Zhao will naturally put all her energy into serving Shanzao.There is no certainty about the matter in the deep house compound. Although the second master and the second wife came out of nowhere, but the Hou Ye and the princess both asked to take good care of them. I am afraid that something will happen to the second wife. The mother in charge bears the brunt of the first misfortune.

Thinking of this, Mother Zhao has already made up her mind.My master's intentions are not clear, she'd better take care of the second wife in an orderly manner, so that even if something happens in the future, it can't be blamed on her.

Chu Yunfeng seriously thought about Zhao's mother's suggestion. Shanzao was always in good health, but he really suffered a little when he got seasick, but he seemed to be alive and kicking in other days.

"Guard Li."

Chu Yunfeng said slowly.

Manager Li hurriedly stood up and listened respectfully.

"Go and ask a doctor to give the second lady a pulse."

Li Guanshi agreed without hesitation, and suggested, "Second Master, our mansion usually invites Dr. Chen from the imperial hospital. Look..."

Chu Yunfeng nodded, "Just invite him."

Chu Yunfeng smiled at Shanzao again, "Let's go out another day, and the doctor will come and take a pulse for you later, to see if you are in good health."

Shanzao blinked his big eyes, and asked after a while, "What is Ping'an pulse?"

Chu Yunfeng smiled and patted her head, "Just to see if you are in good health and if the baby is well. From now on, every three days, I will ask the doctor to ask for a safe pulse."

Zhao's mother clicked her tongue when she heard it, come every three days?It is obvious to all that the second master loves the second wife, but just ask for a pulse in three days...

It seems that Second Master, like Hou Ye, values ​​his offspring very much.

Chu Yunfeng has his own plans, since he won't be able to return to Baiyun Mountain for a while, then he has to do something, at least, there will be no trouble in Tachun Residence.

Back at Tachun Residence, Chu Yunfeng had nothing to do, so he ordered Xia Cao to find a storybook, and while teaching Shanzao how to read, he read stories to her to relieve boredom.

After Chen Yuyi entered the main room of Tachunju, what he saw was a warm picture.

Hou Pingning greeted his long-lost younger brother in a low-key manner and taught his wife how to write.The lady's complexion is very fair, her almond eyes are big and round, she is very energetic, she is dressed in a simple way, her expression is natural, and she looks very approachable.Two people, one writing and the other teaching, sometimes look at each other, and they can see themselves in each other's eyes.I don't know what Madam said, but the second master of the Hou's Mansion laughed softly, and hugged Madam's shoulders affectionately. The deep affection between the two people is very enviable.

Is this really the illiterate, vulgar hunter and village woman rumored outside?

Chen Yuyi had worked in the palace for many years, and he knew what he could do and what he couldn't do, so he quickly lowered his eyes, stood attentively, and listened to Li Guanshi's reply.

"Go back to Second Lord, Master Chen is here."

Chu Yunfeng hastily invited Doctor Chen, "My lord, please take a look. How is my wife doing recently?"

Doctor Chen didn't dare to be careless, he answered yes respectfully, stepped forward and put down the medicine box, took off the plain white silk handkerchief and put it on Shanzao's hand, and then listened carefully for the pulse.

After a while, Imperial Physician Chen took the silk handkerchief, took two steps back, and replied respectfully, "Second Madam is in good health, and the child is also in good health. Second Master, please rest assured."

Chu Yunfeng nodded in satisfaction, "Then I'll have Mrs. Chen, and I'll invite Mrs. Chen to come and see it every three or four days, so I can rest assured."

Chen Yuyi pondered slightly, this second master is really impolite when he provokes people, hey... Marquis Pingning and Princess Anyang are not something he can offend, "If there is nothing wrong, it is fine, but if the palace... ..."

Chu Yunfeng understood, "Naturally, matters in the palace are important, my lord."

Seeing Guanshi Li sending Imperial doctor Chen out, Shan Zao said uneasy, "That's the imperial doctor, who treats the emperor, you order him like this...it's not good... Besides, I'm in good health, Don't be so nervous."

Chu Yunfeng hugged her, and said with a smile, "You don't need to worry about it, coming to the capital has its benefits, even if I ask him to come to ask for peace pulse every day, it's not too hard on him."

Imperial physicians are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. If you want to get along well in the imperial hospital, it is essential to get along well with the royal family and nobles, but he doesn't intend to make it too clear to Shanzao.

"I've read the book for so long, let's take a nap. I feel better in the afternoon. Let's take a walk in the Hou's mansion to see the scenery." Chu Yunfeng picked up Shanzao and walked to the bed.

Taking a nap with Shanzao, Shanzao was pregnant and easily tired, but fell asleep quickly.And Chu Yunfeng waited for her to fall asleep, then quietly got up and walked outside.

Seeing a few young maids chatting and laughing together on the porch outside the courtyard, Chu Yunfeng glanced at them. The maids didn't realize it, they were laughing happily, and they couldn't live in spring for a long time. Although they were assigned errands after they came in , but because Chu Yunfeng didn't allow the maids to serve them close, even the big maids didn't have a chance to show their faces, let alone them, and seeing that Chu Yunfeng and Shanzao had a good temper, they gradually became less afraid.

Chu Yunfeng saw the short-sighted little maids, as did Xia Cao and Chun Mei in the ear room. Chun Mei's expression was ugly, and she immediately stood up. Chunmei took the lead.

Chunmei dismissed a few maids first, tidied up her clothes, and then bowed gracefully to Chu Yunfeng, "Second Master, these girls don't understand the rules, please don't be offended by them."

She lowered her body slightly, perhaps because her clothes were a bit loose, and her collar was slightly arched because of her body movements, she seemed to see something, but also seemed to see nothing.

Chunmei grows very delicately and beautifully. It should be said that Sichun grows beautifully. Girls as beautiful as them are outstanding even in the Hou Mansion. They are assigned to Tachun Residence at the same time, which has a deep meaning.

Chu Yunfeng glanced at her indifferently, and then ordered, "No one is allowed to disturb Madam, Madam didn't call you, so no one is allowed to enter."

Chunmei replied softly, "Yes, Second Master."

After Chu Yunfeng went out, he came back only half an hour later. When he came back, he brought a small box, and when he came back, he went into the bedroom, put the box on the dressing table, opened the curtain and saw that Shanzao was still sleeping, so he took off his shoes , got into the warm bed, hugged the lycium, rubbed the soft chest of the lycium, and then fell asleep holding the softness of the lycium.

Two hours later after waking up, there was still some time before dinner, Chu Yunfeng ordered someone to beat someone, but he still did it himself, after wiping Shanzao's face, he sat in the main room holding Shanzao's hand.

Chu Yunfeng shouted, "Where is Mother Zhao?"

Not long after, Mother Zhao came in with her skirt on, "Second Lord looking for a slave?"

Chu Yunfeng glanced at Zhao's mother, "How many people are there in Tachun Residence?"

Zhao's mother didn't know why Chu Yunfeng asked such a question. After thinking about it, she decided to report the truth, "The mother in charge of Tachunju is a slave, Sichun is a first-class maid, Xiacao and Yuzhu are second-class maids, and borneol, white Shao waited for a few third-class maids, and a few young maids who did not keep their heads. There are also kitchens, sewing, laundry, etc., a total of 120 servants. However, the small kitchen in our Tachun residence is not open, so the people in the kitchen are now Just boil water."

When Shanzao heard that there were more than 100 people, she couldn't help but click her tongue. So many people are serving her and Chu Yunfeng?If one person waits for one day, it will take three rounds to pass a year, Shanzao was thinking wildly.

Chu Yunfeng smiled secretly, there were only two second-class girls and four first-class girls, and they were all the most beautiful. "Tell them to come out to the yard in a quarter of an hour."

Mother Zhao wanted to ask something else, but Chu Yunfeng had already turned his head away, so he could only swallow the question that came to his lips, and went out a little apprehensively.

Zhao's mother is worthy of being the mother in charge, and she is still very efficient in handling affairs. In less than a quarter of an hour, the yard was already densely packed with people.

There were chairs and tables on the steps, and the tea was brewed on them. Chu Yunfeng and Shanzao sat on the chairs, and the whispers below became much quieter. Shanzao felt that this was more rigid than the atmosphere of electing the village chief.

She wants to go home.

Chu Yunfeng took a sip of tea, put it down slowly, and tapped his knuckles on the table rhythmically. As time went by, no one spoke at all, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

"You..." Chu Yunfeng scanned around and saw that the group of people stretched their necks one by one to listen, "The deeds of prostitution are all here."

After finishing speaking, he knocked on the box he brought back in the afternoon, and was very satisfied to see that everyone's expressions changed.

"Then, she—" Chu Yunfeng pointed to Chunmei in Sichunli, Chunmei's eyes flashed with complex expressions, and she looked at Chu Yunfeng anxiously, "Degraded to a third-class girl."

Chunmei was taken aback, and everyone couldn't pretend any longer, all showing expressions of surprise and anger.

Not only these servants, Shanzao was also stunned.

"Why! Second Master, what did the servant do wrong? Even if you let the servant die, you have to let the servant die to understand!" Chunmei's big eyes were filled with tears, and she knelt down in front of Chu Yunfeng with a plop, crying and kowtowing to Chu Yunfeng. .

Chu Yunfeng frowned slightly, "Why? Because I don't like it, does the third-class girl still have to learn the rules?" The last sentence was for Zhao's mother.

Zhao's mother hadn't recovered from these two bombshells, so she hurriedly replied, "Back to the second master, the third-class girl still needs to learn the rules." What does this have to do with Chunmei?
Chu Yunfeng nodded, pointed at Chunmei's clothes, "Teach her how to wear clothes." Do you think he is a fool?Can't you tell that her clothes have deliberately stretched the neckline?

Mother Zhao was stunned. Is this the reason to demote Chunmei?
The problem is, who in the whole Hou's mansion doesn't know that Sichun is a house for the second master?
