General doctor's wife

Chapter 67
In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Qin Ranran had already gotten up and began to wash and dress.

The sweet yet dignified concentric bun, plain velvet embroidered jacket, purple silk skirt with emerald patterns, a brocade inlaid wool cape, plain pearl hair, looks both gentle and decent.

Liu's mother nodded in satisfaction: "After all, the old lady is an elder, so it's best to go this way." Besides, she also wants to torture you, if she dresses too brightly, she might even get pushed out.

"Madam, why don't I go with you." Mother Liu was still very worried, "I can get a little more familiar with the affairs of the Hou's mansion."

Qin Ranran looked at the worried look in Mama Liu's eyes, and smiled softly, "Don't worry, Mama Liu, I have to go every day anyway, if I take you there, it will make others feel that I don't have enough confidence. If you want to save face for the general, don't worry! Besides, my master, I guess you are the only one who can hold back..."

Qin Ranran couldn't help thinking of that day when Master insisted on taking the bird's nest from the sycamore tree in the backyard and roasting the eggs. , Let go of the poor bird.

Ms. Liu seemed to have thought of this too, imagining what the mansion would look like if she wasn't there.

"The madam took care of herself, and sent her maid to report back when something happened." Mother Liu immediately changed her mind, "Let Lu Jiu follow you, just in case."

Qin Ranran nodded with a smile, full of fighting spirit.

The carriage slowly walked out of General Pingxi's mansion, Lu Jiu and Hong Xiu sat beside her with serious faces.

"You two don't have to be like this, it's not a dragon's den or a tiger's den." Qin Ranran looked at the expressions of the two maids as if they were facing a big enemy, and spoke comforting words.

Lu Jiu put his hands on his waist, and said solemnly: "Even if it is a dragon's lake and a tiger's lair, I will take you home safely."

"I will also swear to protect you to the death!" Hong Xiu clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

Qin Ranran looked at the two maids in front of her in astonishment: "You two don't have so little confidence in me, do you? Is your wife so vulnerable in your eyes?"

Lu Jiu and Hong Xiu looked at each other and shook their heads together.

Ma'am is amazing, okay?
While speaking, he had already reached the gate of Pingxihou Mansion.

Qin Ranran looked at the closed door and shook her head lightly. This is the trick again. Is this the old lady of Pingxihou who is famous in the capital?
"Lu Jiu, go knock on the door. If someone is disrespectful to you, just shoot." Qin Ranran narrowed her eyes slightly. Since the Pingxihou Mansion has never stood on the same side as Lu Chengan from the beginning to the end, there is no need to show them a good face. .

Lu Jiu responded abruptly, showing a sweet smile, and went forward to knock on the door.

"Who? It's early in the morning." Someone inside responded quickly. After opening the door, they saw Lu Jiu standing at the door, showing a meaningful smile, "Whose little girl is this? What are you doing knocking on the door early in the morning?"

"Brother, I am the servant girl next to General Pingxi's wife. My wife is here to serve her mother-in-law today. Brother, open the door and let us in." Lu Jiu's tone was crisp and his smile was sweet. Anyone seemed to think this was a good-tempered person little girl.

The boy obviously thought so too. He frivolously stretched out his finger and picked Lu Jiu's chin. Just as he was about to speak, his face suddenly changed and he let out a howl like a pig being slaughtered.

"Who is it!" After hearing the wailing, the people inside the door all ran out and shouted.

Lu Jiu looked pitiful and weeping, "He, how could he be so rude?"

The people who came were stunned, looking at the delicate and weak woman in front of them and the servant who was squatting on the ground and clutching his fingers in pain.

"Boy Liu, what's going on?" A man in charge came over.

The boy who was squatting on the ground raised his head, revealing a face full of tears: "Uncle Zhang, this, this woman is too ruthless..."

"If you don't touch me, will I do it?" Lu Jiu quickly shed a few tears from his eyes, looking extremely pitiful.

"I, didn't I just pinch your chin, why don't you?" The boy was also full of grievances.

"I don't know when I will be able to enter the mansion? If I delay it any longer, I will miss the time to greet my mother-in-law." Seeing that everyone had come out, Qin Ranran got out of the carriage and asked at the door of the Hou's mansion.

Guanshi Zhang had met Qin Ranran before, and he also knew that General Xixi was in the limelight in the end, which made the old lady very unhappy, so he let this unpleasant daughter-in-law come here and set up a good order.

"Mrs. Lu," Zhang Guanshi pondered for a while, and said, "You are welcome, but this maid..."

"I will explain to my mother-in-law that this maid is mine, so I will naturally take it away." Qin Ranran stood at the door, imitating the queen's tone, her expression not angry but pretentious.

Guanshi Zhang just felt that he couldn't refute, so he nodded blankly, asking people to make way for the carriage to enter the mansion.

"Go and see the doctor, I'll give you a holiday today." Steward Zhang looked at Boy Liu who was still crying in pain, and ordered.

Qin Ranran ignored what was going on behind her, got into the carriage again, and walked towards the Hou's mansion.

Until the second courtyard, Qin Ranran got out of the carriage. Lu Jiu and Hong Xiu stood on both sides, supporting her, and walked towards the old lady's courtyard together.

"Why isn't there even a maid to guide the way?" Lu Jiu complained in a low voice, "Fortunately, Madam came here, otherwise we wouldn't even be able to find the yard."

"I can't find the wrong time, so there's a reason to torment me." Qin Ranran kept smiling, "I can't remember the way, which means I rarely serve my mother-in-law, and it's even more unfilial."

"The mind is really vicious." Hongxiu's face was normal, but he couldn't hide the disgust in his tone.

All the way to the main courtyard, Qin Ranran entered the courtyard, stood on the porch and waited with her hands down. The mother next to the old lady came out and said with a smile, "The second lady is here. The old lady didn't sleep well last night, and she hasn't woken up yet... "

"It's okay, it's important for mother to sleep well, I'll just wait here." Qin Ranran replied with a smile.

"Then there will be Mrs. Lao." The mother said with a smile, and went back to the back room.

Qin Ranran stood there without moving, and quietly looked at the maids coming and going in the yard. When she saw a maid going out with a water basin, she knew that the old lady was already up.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, there was still no movement inside, and Qin Ranran's face remained calm, and she quietly winked at Lu Jiu who was behind her.

Lu Jiu understood, and a small stone flew out of his sleeve, hitting the ankle of a servant girl who was holding a teacup.

The servant girl felt a numbness in her ankles and a tilt of her body, and the teacup in her hand was caught on Qin Ranran's arm.

Lu Jiu took a step forward and helped the maid.Hongxiu hurriedly wiped the tea leaves off Qin Ranran's clothes with a handkerchief, and said anxiously, "Ma'am, what should I do? I thought that there would be no accidents when I came to the old lady, so I didn't bring a change of clothes. How do you greet the old lady?"
