Foster son and husband

Chapter 106 Arrangement
The nanny boiled half a bowl of millet porridge and fed it to Heng'er. Mrs. Zheng asked Mother He to bring some soup. Heng'er immediately frowned and buried his face in Meiniang's arms. face, I felt that his breath was still a little warm, but his lips turned pink, no longer red as if about to bleed, and he was already in good spirits. My child, don't drink if you can.

Then he said to Mrs. Zheng: "Let's keep the decoction for now, the fever has subsided now. I'm afraid it will happen again in the middle of the night—how about I take Heng'er to stay for two days and come back when he recovers?"

Mrs. Zheng glanced at Xu Junying, with a serious face: "It's just a little fever. He has been fed medicine once before, and he will be fine if you don't come! Am I not better at taking care of children than you? Heng'er is only with me now. Get close, you have to touch my ears to fall asleep at night, why are you messing with him again? Give him to me, and you husband and wife don’t have to watch by your side, it’s late at night, go back and rest!”

Heng'er huddled in Mei Niang's arms obediently, without making a sound or moving, a little finger gently scratched the embroidered pattern on her dress, Meiniang couldn't help feeling sour, hugged Heng'er tightly, and turned her head Going to see Xu Junying, I hope Xu Junying can be a good person again, say something for her, and persuade Mrs. Zheng to let Heng Er stay with her for a few days.

But Xu Junying averted his eyes and said: "Put Heng'er to sleep, and stay with mother. Here is the decoction, and his clothes and utensils are here. Don't worry, mother will take care of Heng'er better than you." Son!"

Mei Niang lowered her eyes in disappointment. Mrs. Zheng's complexion relaxed a little, and she told Zheng Meiyu: "The tea is cold, bring a hot cup for your cousin Ying. Do you still have the walnuts given by the fifth daughter-in-law? Get some Come on, your cousin coaxes Heng'er to sleep, you can smash walnuts and eat for fun—Ying'er didn't like snacks since she was a child, and she didn't even eat fruit, she only ate hard-shelled dried fruits."

Zheng Meiyu stood up, as light as a butterfly, and changed the hot tea herself, and took a plate of walnuts from Qiu Hong and put it on the table. Inch thick, half a foot long, wide and square, Zheng Meiyu carefully held the iron smasher, but she couldn't crack the walnuts, so she had to ask Xu Junying for help. Xu Junying broke four or five for her. While peeling the shell, Meiyu smiled and said:
"I haven't forgotten that when I was young, Cousin Ying smashed walnuts with Cousin Lan to eat in the old lady's yard, and he would always bring me a few back!"

Xu Junying said: "Really? I don't remember!"

"Cousin Ying is a person who does big things, how can he always remember these small things?"

Zheng Meiyu picked out the biggest walnut and handed it to him: "There must be a lot of nuts, Cousin Ying, break it open and have a look!"

Mei Niang didn't have time to watch her cousins ​​smashing walnuts, hugged Heng'er and patted him gently, coaxing him to sleep, while thinking about it, she told the nanny, and by the way, told Mrs. Zheng:

"Heng'er drank half a bowl of water and ate porridge again. She has to get up in the middle of the night, keep warm, and change clothes in time when she sweats...Heng'er wears too much clothes on weekdays, so she is prone to wind and cold. It's too tight, and I can't breathe well... The weather is getting warmer, and Heng'er has always been active. When he is a toddler, there is no need to wear two cotton-padded jackets. There is a small jacket inside, a cotton-padded bellyband, and a thin cotton-padded jacket outside... …Drink plenty of water, wash your hands frequently, don’t be afraid of the cold and refuse to bathe him, you must bathe him every day!”

Heng'er fell asleep again, Mrs. Zheng ordered the nurse to take it, and carried him back to the room with Xia Lian to sleep.

Zheng Meiyu greeted Mei Niang softly: "Cousin sister-in-law, come and eat a walnut, it's delicious and sweet, cousin smashed it for me!"

Mei Niang couldn't understand her complacent look, so while Mrs. Zheng was concentrating on telling Mother He to take care of the medicine jar, she said to Zheng Meiyu:

"I got tired of eating this a hundred years ago, and you only know it's delicious now! Be careful, this stuff is hot, and if you eat too much, you'll get acne on your face. I think you'd better drink a few more bowls of cold water tonight, so as not to Wake up tomorrow morning and be disfigured - I heard that there are acne on the face, even if it is cured, the marks will not disappear within a month or two, and rouge and water powder will not cover it up!"

Zheng Meiyu just swallowed a mouthful of walnuts, as if her throat was stuck by a fishbone, she couldn't spit out or swallow, her expression was very ridiculous.

Mei Niang saw the desired effect and was very satisfied. She was about to smile when she saw Mrs. Zheng approaching and hurriedly said, "Mother has worked hard tonight! Daughter-in-law is thinking, Heng'er may have to get up a few times in the middle of the night to drink water." Taking medicine or something, the nanny looks tired too, why don't my daughter-in-law stay here..."

Mrs. Zheng waved her hand: "You and Ying'er go back and rest. I took a long nap today and I'm full of energy. I can see how many times Heng'er wakes up again! Besides, there are mother He Chunyue Xia Lian and the others, they are all usual Those who serve him understand his temper, so you can rest assured!"

Mei Niang had no choice but to leave with Xu Junying.

Speechless all the way, Meiniang was thinking about Heng'er in her heart, and she had to think about tomorrow's schedule: I have to see Heng'er in the morning, if I want to spend more time with him, I can't go to the old lady's place, the business of Ziyuntang should be over as soon as possible, Then go out of the mansion to see Lin Runan, King Qi, and let Cuixi take a look at the cyclamen... Come back before dinner, go to Jinhuatang or Qiuhuayuan?oops!too many things!Meiniang was so overwhelmed by her thoughts that she had no time to look at the people around her, so she just followed Xu Junying. Fortunately, the road paved with terrazzo was smooth and clean, so she didn't need to pay attention to her feet, just followed mechanically, and walked for a while , Xu Junying stopped, Meiniang couldn't make it through, she was forced to stop, and asked blankly: "Why don't you go, where else are you going?"

Cui Si said softly beside her, "Grandma, let's go back to the yard!"

Mei Niang froze for a moment, looked around, and couldn't help feeling embarrassed: I went back to Tsinghua University before I knew it, and I'm going to the East University, so I want to tell you something.

Xu Junying said calmly: "It's late at night, let's rest. Get up early tomorrow, after seeing Heng'er, you should go to Jinhuatang. Rulan and Jingyu may not be able to go. If you don't go, there will be no one." Served in front of the old lady!"

Mei Niang lowered her head and didn't mention Zhuang Yulan again: "Fourth Grandma and Fifth Grandma also go there often."

Xu Junying said: "Everyone should be filial! Let's have dinner together in Jinhua Hall tomorrow. I'll come back earlier and after dinner, I'll go to Qiuhua Courtyard to see Henger."

Mei Niang blinked her eyes: Did you hear me right?Will Xu Junying arrange for her to accompany her to see Heng'er?Then she can still hug Heng'er tomorrow night, comfort him, and put him to sleep, provided that she has to go to Jinhuatang to accompany the old lady for dinner.As a result, he had to hurry up during the day and return to Xu's mansion before Xu Junying went home.

I don't quite understand why Xu Junying always emphasizes that she should go to Jinhuatang to accompany the old lady. She has lost interest in that old lady. It's not what it used to be. Now Qin Meiniang doesn't need to please anyone too much, right?What rules and disciplines, just take a formality and look out of the ordinary.

It wasn't because she was ungrateful and lost her walking stick when she crossed the Yellow River. At the beginning, Mrs. Xu supported her in managing the Houfuzhong, but she had bad intentions. Everything she did was to pave the way for Zhuang Yulan's future.

The old lady is a fine person, so things like death and resurrection are rare, and then found that the eldest grandson-in-law who came back to life has become smart, sensitive and well-behaved. Mrs. Zheng has been in charge of Hou Fuzhong for 20 years, and she has her own prestige in the network. The pillar of the Xu family is her eldest son. Although he was not his own, he was raised since childhood. With the Jiangyuan rich family, there is also Xu Junjie, the seventh old man who died for the country, and the court chased and pardoned the brave Yixiao cavalry captain, and he has achieved fame. Based on these, Mrs. Zheng's status in Xu's mansion is immeasurable. Her identity can restrain her a little bit, but there are some things that can hardly move her.Mrs. Zheng refused to hand over the gift to Bai Jingyu, so Meiniang would fight with her, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would pass it on. , and then Zhuang Yulan came in, supported by the old lady and Xu Junying, it was too easy for her to take the housekeeping right from Mei Niang.

Mei Niang turned her head all right, that's what she guessed.

The old lady should be very puzzled: she is ready to see how Meiniang and Mrs. Zheng fight openly and secretly, so she can wait for the opportunity to take advantage of the fun, but she never expected Mrs. Zheng to be silent and willing to give all the money to the Houfu, who has been in charge for 20 years. Delivered to Mei Niang, can't figure it out?Ha ha!She couldn't believe it even if she killed this old woman - Mrs. Zheng hugged and raised her by her side, and Heng'er, who will be relied on in the future, is actually the blood of the seventh child of the Xu family!She probably wouldn't want to face such a shocking scandal, right?

Seeing Xu Junying walk into the Moon Cave Gate, Meiniang sighed and walked to the upper room, she was unwilling to face it herself, the problems left by Qin Meiniang and Xu Junjie were too difficult to solve.

Going back to the room and looking at the copper clepsydra, it was already the third watch. The so-called third watch in the middle of the night refers to this time, right?
Coaxed Ms. Wang to go to bed, discussed with Cuixi Cuilian, hurriedly washed up and went to bed, maybe she was too tired and slept deeply, and she was woken up by Cuixi before she even had a dream:
"Grandma, wake up, it's time to get up!"

After waiting for a while, probably only four or five minutes, Cuixi was so anxious that she walked in circles outside the tent: "Grandma, get up, I don't know what's going on with Brother Heng, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to Jinhua Hall in time!"

That's right, Heng'er, the sick and poor Heng'er, for him, today's time has to be calculated accurately and there can be no mistakes.

After counting one, two, three, she quickly turned over and got up, and ran into the inner room to clean up the housework, wash her face and brush her teeth. She spent a lot of time measuring and drawing pictures to make the clean room refitted. Xu Junying entered twice, once drunk Finally, when he was sober, he didn't want to come out after going in for a long time. I don't know if he saw the doorway there.

After washing up, people are also fully awake, sitting in front of the mirror, leaving everything to Cuixi and the others, dressing up, packing up and going out, step by step, doing one by one, a new day, doing exactly the same things , and they are not the same, whether she likes it or not, she has to experience it. The free and beautiful life she once dreamed of when she was a girl is completely different from today's life!
