Tianyi Pavilion.
It is the best embroidery shop in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The clothes they made were loved even by nobles in the palace, and sought after by high-ranking officials and nobles. However, the monthly production was very limited, and unless you ordered a year or two in advance, you simply couldn't wear the clothes they made.
Madam Jiang had made an appointment a year in advance to have several clothes custom-made for Chu Jin, and they were finally finished.
The thought of Chu Jin outshining all the other beauties in those gorgeous clothes, making all the noble ladies of the capital pale in comparison, made Madam Jiang feel much better.
He immediately stood up: "Take good care of her, I'll come see her again later." He paused, then added, "If anything happens, send someone to let me know immediately."
Yunmi watched her retreating figure, her face tense, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked: "Is Madam's heart made of stone? How could she be so cruel and cold-blooded to the young lady!"
She wanted to chase after him and confront him.
The wet nurse held her down: "It's no use! Whatever we say is wrong. It will only make the madam think that the young lady is ill-mannered and order us servants around criticizing our elders."
"Upbringing?" Yun Mi sneered. "Has she ever taught the girl? She gave birth to her but didn't teach her; what right does she have to criticize her?"
The wet nurse shook her head and sighed.
Nothing to say.
the other side.
Chu Jin saw her aunt return with a smile and assumed nothing was wrong.
Upon further inquiry, it was learned that Jiang Ruining had fainted from a high fever the previous night.
"Your cousin is still asleep; you should be with her!"
Madam Jiang said nonchalantly, "She has so many people serving her, it doesn't matter whether I'm here or not." She then gently took her hand, "Come on, Auntie will accompany you to try on your new clothes!"
Chu Jin didn't go to Chaohua Residence because she was afraid that her aunt's attention would be focused on her, which would make Jiang Ruining uncomfortable.
As a result, her aunt left because her new clothes arrived!
She felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
My cousin must hate her to the core right now!
……
Jiang Ruining slept until noon, briefly woke up, took her medicine, changed her clothes, and then fell asleep again.
It wasn't until evening that his burning body temperature gradually subsided.
I woke up again.
I finally felt less drowsy and dizzy.
Yun Mi was overjoyed to see that she had regained consciousness. She reached out and touched her forehead, then frowned, "She's still burning up!"
Jiang Ruining: "Illness comes like a landslide, but recovery is like pulling silk from a cocoon; it always takes time."
I sweated all day, my limbs felt swollen and my skin felt sticky, and then I got my period, which made me very uncomfortable.
She got out of bed.
"I want to take a shower, go get some hot water."
The wet nurse happened to come in and casually instructed the maid in the outer room to go to the kitchen to deliver a message.
He waved his hand.
Several maids came in, each carrying a tray.
The shelves were filled with colorful new clothes.
He waved the servants away.
The wet nurse felt wronged for her: "While you were unconscious, Madam accompanied Miss to try on all the new clothes she ordered from Tianyi Pavilion. Several of them looked quite nice, but they were all asked to be redone to make them more exquisite. You didn't try any of them on, so Madam ordered them all to be kept."
Jiang Ruining sensed a trace of the original owner's emotions, and her heart ached slightly.
But that wasn't her mother, so she didn't care at all.
I got out of bed.
Looking at the clothes and jewelry, a mocking smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
Madam Jiang was willing to go to great lengths for Chu Jin.
Sixteen summer outfits were ordered for Chu Jin, including outfits for her coming-of-age ceremony, banquets, poetry gatherings, outings, and everyday wear, for various occasions. They were made with the latest embroidery and the most expensive materials.
Jiang Ruining also had the same set, with the same number of pieces and good materials, but they were all leftovers from Chu Jin.
The colors were almost all colors she disliked, and the patterns included the evening primrose, which Madam Jiang had muttered was "unlucky." Because Chu Jin was more suited to fitted styles, Madam Jiang did not allow her to wear the same styles, so her clothes were mostly loose-fitting ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress).
Even the jewelry she wore was just something she picked out and had someone bring it to her.
Because there aren't many items that can be paired with the new clothes.
She picked up an old-fashioned ear pick and scoffed, "What girl who hasn't come of age would wear an ear pick like that only her grandmother would wear? She's as if she wants me to know how perfunctory she is!"
Yunmi was saddened to hear this.
She arrived at the Jiang residence two years earlier than her cousin and had witnessed how much the madam doted on her, wishing she could pluck the moon from the sky for her. Therefore, she understood even better how the madam later turned cold-blooded and heartless!
"Don't be sad, young lady. Soon, the master and the eldest son will be returning to the capital to report on their duties. If they are to be transferred to other posts, we can go with them!"
Jiang Ruining remembered that in the original plot, in order to pave the way for Chu Jin's marriage, Jiang's father and elder brother Jiang Ruiyun would not leave again after returning to the capital.
One was promoted to Minister of Revenue, and the other to Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
The scenery is infinite.
The original owner, having been forced into this situation, was completely twisted and had no chance to have his resentment melted away by the love and tolerance of his father and brothers.
It is a pity.
"There's nothing to be sad about, and I don't care anyway."
not give a damn about?
Aren't you sad?
Yunmi did not believe it.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have gotten so angry that she fell ill!
It's all because of Miss Biao and that foul-mouthed Chunxi by her side. I will never let them get away with this!
The wet nurse was perceptive, and besides, Yunmi was not good at hiding her true feelings.
Hot water is always kept in the kitchen.
They were quickly carried in.
Jiang Ruining approached the steamy clean room and instructed, "Open all the doors and windows to let in some fresh air. Change all the bedding. Don't burn incense, just pick some flowers to fumigate the room."
Yun Mi responded and told Jin Yu to get busy.
As the wet nurse helped Jiang Ruining bathe, she whispered, "Miss, that girl Yun Mi is probably going to cause trouble. Miss is shrewd; Yun Mi's simple tricks won't work at all."
"My cousin is determined to use her confidante to stir up trouble and sow discord in Madam's ear. If this escalates, I'm afraid Madam will dislike you even more!"
Jiang Ruining was not surprised, after all, Yun Mi had impulsively caused trouble more than once or twice in the book.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
"Yunmi is loyal. I'm willing to send her away, but if I want to keep her by my side, I can only let her go through a brush with death so that she'll learn her lesson and know to be afraid of implicating me. That way, she won't act impulsively and cause trouble in the future."
"As for Madam, what she thinks is no longer important. As long as I can hold out until Father and Brother return, she won't be able to bully me anymore."
Seeing that she had regained her composure, the wet nurse was overjoyed: "It's so good that you can think things through."
Jiang Ruining patted her hand.
The original owner's courtyard was not chaotic, all thanks to her wet nurse.
Like Yun Mi, she unconditionally trusted and was loyal to the original owner.
The original owner was very dependent on them.
Now that Jiang Ruining has taken over the role of the original owner, she naturally has to take good care of them.
"Don't worry, wet nurse, I won't do anything foolish again. Let's live our own lives well. I'll take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die!"
The wet nurse's eyes were blurred with tears: "Ah! We're all fine!"
She changed her clothes and came out.
The room had been tidied up, and the incense burner hanging on the silver hook was filled with fresh fragrant flowers, wafting out a sweet aroma.
But amidst the sweetness, she keenly detected a hint of blood.
It smells completely different from the scent emitted during menstruation.
And she hadn't even settled in yet, so how could all the candles have gone out?
unless……
