Divine Doctor's Daughter: The Imperial Concubine

Chapter 151
"I haven't seen Aunt Yan for a long time, but Aunt Yan has worn out a lot, but the maids in the yard haven't taken care of her well?" Chu Ruoying finally set her eyes on Yan Ruwei, seeing that her eyes were faintly tired, she was "concerned" asked.

Yan Ruwei stepped forward when he heard the words, Banfu leaned forward and said, "I have a note from the concubine, it's just that the concubine didn't rest last night."

"Hey, when the concubine came back today, Aunt Yan didn't have a good rest yesterday. Those who know it understand that Aunt Yan is too surprised by the concubine's return, but those who don't know think that Aunt Yan planned the whole night last night." Aunt Hua, who had always had a weak sense of existence in the past, changed her normal routine today. After hearing Yan Ruwei's words, she immediately said with a teasing smile. Although her words were somewhat inappropriate, it was not considered rude. Ruoying took a high look.

"Aunt Hua was joking, the master has been with you recently, you are naturally resting better than ordinary people." Yan Ru lowered her head slightly, thinking that Chu Lie hadn't come to her often these days, she was afraid She was ridiculed by others, so she couldn't help saying this sentence, but she regretted it after she finished speaking, because Chu Ruoying's eyes immediately changed.

Chu Ruoying curled the corners of her lips slightly, and after taking a very indifferent look at Yan Ruwei, she said lightly, "Aunt Yan has been with my father for a long time, and it's up to you to say who your father loves and who you don't. What should be said and what should not be said, it is better for Aunt Yan to distinguish clearly."

"Yes, thank you for your teaching." Yan Ruwei lowered her head even more when she heard the words, and replied softly.

Seeing this, Chu Ruoying slightly looked away, and as soon as her eyes fell on Aunt Pei, Aunt Pei smiled and opened her mouth.

"Concubine Shizi, the primary courtyard of Sheng has been cleaned up, and the girls in the courtyard are all newly selected, who are smart in doing things. Concubine Shizi, should I go back to the courtyard to have a look?" Aunt Pei stepped forward and bowed again, Said with a smile.

Chu Ruoying nodded and said with a smile, "Aunt Pei is so attentive, so my concubine will naturally go to see it."

"Please, Princess Concubine." Seeing that Chu Ruoying had answered her words, Aunt Pei's face became even more joyful, and she retreated behind Chu Ruoying in an orderly manner.

Chu Ruoying nodded, and led the group of people behind her towards Sheng Junior Courtyard. When Aunt Hua walked past Yan Ruwei, she snorted softly, "Some people think they look a lot like others. Similarity is capital, but in fact it is just a substitute.”

Yan Ruwei secretly clenched her fists, bit her lips and did not speak. After Aunt Hua walked away, she cast a bitter glance at the backs of the crowd, and then followed.

"What happened between Aunt Hua and Aunt Yan?" Chu Ruoying never believed that one person could make great changes in a short period of time. There must be entanglements between people.

Aunt Pei heard the words and walked up to Chu Ruoying's side, and said in a low voice, "Aunt Hua was discovered by the doctor last month that she was pregnant for one and a half months, but she disappeared inexplicably afterwards. The master checked for a day. Afterwards, I went to Qingyun Pavilion and came out after a lot of anger. Later, Aunt Yan was not so favored, and Aunt Hua seemed to be a different person overnight. After knowing this, Then I started to target Aunt Yan everywhere."

"Why did Aunt Hua's child disappear out of nowhere?" Chu Ruoying naturally understood the meaning of Aunt Pei's words, and asked with a nod.

Aunt Pei thought for a while, and said: "The maids and concubines don't know, I heard that Aunt Hua was having a nightmare, and the child disappeared after she woke up."

"Nightmare?" Chu Ruoying raised her eyebrows and asked suspiciously.

Aunt Pei nodded, and said with some emotion: "I went to see Aunt Hua that day. After Aunt Hua found out that her child was gone, she collapsed on the bed, and she didn't look angry at all. Auntie, but apart from this incident, Auntie Hua is still as usual in other respects."

Chu Ruoying nodded, and said nothing else along the way. When they arrived at Sheng Junior Courtyard, there were already two rows of little maids standing in front of the courtyard. Chu Xiner and Chu Qinger were also standing in front of the courtyard. Smiling, she stepped forward to salute, and said softly, "I've seen Shi Zifei." Chu Qing'er raised her eyes and said obediently, "Shi Zifei's complexion is getting better and better, so my sister can feel at ease."

"Thank you for the note, third sister." Chu Ruoying knew that her third sister was a simple and sensible person, so she never made things difficult for her. When she saw her salute, she signaled Li Xia to help her up. Chu Xiner who was on the side saw Chu Ruoying treated her differently, and she didn't show anything special, and she meekly stood aside.

"There are too many maids in this yard. Aunt Pei, you can take all the ones behind, five are enough." Chu Ruoying looked at the ten maids neatly in front of her, feeling a little headache .

"Is five too few, and things may not be done well?" Aunt Pei asked.

"No, this concubine will only stay for a few days, there is no need for that." Chu Ruoying shook her head and said flatly.

Aunt Pei saw that Chu Ruoying really didn't intend to keep these people, so she stepped forward and took the last five girls out, and assigned them to other yards to serve them one by one.

Then Chu Ruoying went into the room and took a look, and felt that everything was the same as when she left, so she let everyone disperse, and she took the jade flute she hadn't touched for a long time to the backyard, sat on the swing, and relaxed. It was playing slowly, and soon, a melodious and gentle piece of music was transmitted from the Sheng Junior Courtyard, floating around.

At this time, there was a crackling sound in the Qingyun Pavilion. After hearing the sound, the people outside the courtyard entered the house in a panic, looked at the debris of the house, frowned and said, "Auntie, what are you doing? Are you alone?" The actions of a month ago have made the master dissatisfied, and the general is tired of it, so now, do you want to completely destroy the master?"

Yan Ruwei finally calmed down, leaned back on the chair softly, and said in a low voice: "Then what should we do now?"

Seeing that she had calmed down, Nanny Sun left the room and called the little maid to tidy up the pieces. Then she stepped forward and took Yan Ruwei's hand, and said softly, "Now that the eldest lady is back, auntie, your chance Here you go, only by doing what the master ordered, you can get rid of your current status, Auntie."

"You're right!" Yan Ruwei nodded, with a hint of ferocity in her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "If it weren't for Chu Ruoying, I wouldn't be a concubine who is bullied now, if it wasn't for that Aunt Hua, I don't have to fall here, I can't be discouraged, I still want to stand up and become the most honorable woman in the world!"

"Auntie is right to think so. Don't dare to throw things in the future, otherwise the general will find out, and it will definitely be bad for you, Auntie." When Sun Nanny heard her last sentence, her eyes flashed very quickly. There was a touch of sarcasm, but Yan Ruwei didn't notice it.

"Thank you Mammy for your teaching. Ruwei is ignorant these days." Yan Ruwei nodded, and when she looked up to see Nanny Sun's concerned eyes, she felt a burst of warmth in her heart and said choked up.

"Auntie is really a shameful old slave. The old slave is a slave, so naturally he should do things for the master." Nanny Sun hurriedly knelt down and said with her head bowed.

At this moment, Yan Ruwei suddenly had a distorted pleasure in her heart. Sure enough, a slave is a slave. Even if she was grateful just now, she was nothing more than a slave. She was born to kneel at her feet. Still can't move.
"Mammy, please get up, I hope mammy will give you more advice in the future." Yan Ruwei stretched out her hand to help Nanny Sun up, and said softly.

Nanny Sun stood up, not even daring to say, the appearance of the two of them is still good for outsiders to see the deep love between the master and the servant, but what is hidden under this illusion is not known to others .

In the afternoon, Chu Lie returned home from outside. After knowing that Chu Ruoying had returned, he changed his mind about going to the study and turned to head towards Sheng Junior Court.

"Concubine Shizi, the general is here." Lixia who was far away saw Chu Lie, and then walked into the room to announce. Chu Ruoying nodded, picked up a cup again, poured a cup of tea, and put it away just now. , Chu Lie strode in.

Chu Ruoying turned her head to look at Chu Lie, and said calmly, "I've seen my father, he rushed over here in a hurry, he must be thirsty, this is brewed by my daughter, father taste it."

Although Chu Lie was dissatisfied with Chu Ruoying's actions when he saw him not getting up, he also understood that Chu Ruoying's identity was there. After descending the steps, he stepped forward to take the cup of tea and took a sip, his expression suddenly changed, and he murmured: "This is."

"Rose, chrysanthemum, amaranth, marigold, forget-me-not, jasmine, peach blossom." Chu Ruoying looked down at the tea without ripples, took a sip, and said in a calm manner, "When my mother was alive, I often made scented tea like this, and it really tasted very good."

"Yeah, your mother likes to do these things on weekdays." Chu Lie also had a faint smile in his eyes, as if thinking of those carefree years before, and the one who put all kinds of flowers together. When they are paired together, they put on a bitter face when it tastes bad, and pour everyone a glass with a smile when it tastes good.

Chu Ruoying also raised the corners of her lips slightly, with a little warmth in her eyes, and said lightly: "I have never seen my mother do these things since I was a child. In my impression, she always sits quietly, and sometimes plays the piano for me. I listen and sometimes read to me."

"Really?" Chu Lie turned his head to look at Chu Ruoying, as if he wanted to see the person from many years ago through Chu Ruoying.

"Yes." Chu Ruoying lowered her head and smiled, then suddenly changed the subject, and said, "Father came here in such a hurry, do you have something to say?"

"It's nothing, just to see if you are doing well in King Jin's Mansion?" Chu Lie asked politely without nodding or shaking his head.

Chu Ruoying's expression was calm, and she said softly: "It's not bad, but there are fewer things than Chu's."

"It was because my father didn't take good care of you before." Chu Lie said in a deep voice.
