Chapter 193, Suffering
There is an open book on the desk, and next to the book is a hot tea. Chu Huaixian stroked the bowl of hot tea in his hand, as if he could borrow a little temperature on the hot tea cup and go to the coldness in his heart.
This chill comes from the words of many blessings, longevity and winter dyeing. Two little maids and a girl took turns to reply, and the more Chu Huaixian listened, the colder he became.
Duofu said, "The young lady is in the old lady's room, and there is always no one to pay attention to her. She stood for a long time without saying anything. The second lady said that she would not be happy and told her.
Chu Huaixian listened quietly.
Duo Shou came in again: "The young lady went to see the lady. The lady didn't say anything. The second lady said that the daughter-in-law always pulled her face to look for bad luck, which led the lady to scold the young lady."
Chu Huaixian listened again.
Finally, Dongran came in and complained completely: "Forbid, the young lady didn't have many days in the room. Yuzhao and Xiangsheng stopped her and picked her problems. Look at the prince's return at night and say that the young lady should wait outside. These are not two girls, even the two aunts, which are too outrageous.
Dong Ran is still her irritable person, and she has served Chu Huaixian since she was a child, and she spoke very directly.
Yu Zhao and Xiangsheng think that Mrs. Chu pointed out, and there will be Mrs. Chu's support in this family. But I didn't expect that these girls in Mr. Chu's room were not easy to provoke after a young lady Lin Xiaochu. Inadvertently, I offended a few of these people first.
"How much did she eat in a day?" Chu Huaixian asked Dongran. Dongran had inquired about it for a long time and whispered, "It seems that the water and rice don't have much teeth." Chu Huaixian stayed like a stone sculpture for a moment, let Dong dye go out, and then called for Xi'er to come in: "Dr. Zou is still coming home. Go and tell him to prescribe some tonic medicine."
Jin Xier reminded Chu Huaixian: "Now at home, the prescription is to be handed over to the account room to grab the medicine. The second master and the second lady have seen these drugs in the prescription, but I'm afraid they will be talky again. Besides, this medicine is cooked in the big kitchen. They are used to taking medicine and their eyes are very sharp.
At the end of January, as long as the weather is sunny outside the window, it feels like a spring breeze blowing on the ground. Chu Huaixian's heart was as cold as winter. He silently listened to Jin Xi'er's words and raised his hand to let Jin Xi'er go out.
It was only about 20 days away from Chunqi. Chu Huaixian looked at the book, and the words seemed to be shaking one by one. His heart was full of sadness and anger, so he couldn't read it even more.
I got up and walked in the yard, and then came back to refresh my mind to read a book. In the afternoon, Chu Shaofu asked someone to send out a piece of paper with the title of the book and told him, "Use dinner in the study to sort out these books." Chu Huaixian stood up and listened to it. He sat down and did not move again.
After beating the second update, Mrs. Chu usually asked people to send a midnight snack to her son and the third master as usual. After Chu Huaixian walked by and called Duo Fu to come in: "The steamer you found during the day, pour this in."
It was late at night when the supper came in. Xiaochu fell asleep but didn't sleep well. Chu Huaixian woke up as soon as he shook Lin Xiaochu and forced the midnight snack down for her. He hugged her to warm her with his body for a while, and then forcibly untied her clothes despite Xiaochu's plea...
Yu Zhao and Xiangsheng waited behind their door and listened to the opening of the door in the prince's room late at night. The girls walked around and poured tea and hot water. The two curled their lips and went to tell Mrs. Chu the next day.
The second wife's sister-in-law is like a respected elder. When Mrs. Chu was at home, the second and third wives stood on duty with Mrs. Chu. The second lady heard these words and told her with a smile when she saw Mrs. Chu again: "During her standing with her head down and losing her energy, this young man is going to get out of the field. What's wrong with her not resting at night? In terms of elders, they can't talk about young couples, but the reputation of the prince is always important.
When Xiaochu arrived, Mrs. Chu was old and pulled down her face to say these words. She didn't leave a face for Xiaochu at all. She said in front of Mrs. Chu, the second lady, the third lady and the maidservant in the first room, "Let's talk about you. The prince's body is important. You were not virtuous before, and you have to go in the door. Learn to be virtuous."
These words spread to Chu Huaixian's ears intact, and Chu Huaixian could bear it. A day later, Duoshou said again: "Madam scolded the young lady for not eating well-made raw food, but wanted to rob the prince's mouthful at night." Duoshou asked Chu Huaixian carefully, "Take it back. Did someone in the room see it?"
Duoshou didn't say that Yuzhao and Xiangsheng said it, but he didn't say it, and he also knew that Chu Huaixian could understand who played the devil. Chu Huaixian's anger is not small. He has been looking at his family's faces since before he got married, and he has been careful. Even with these two slaves, he has always been friendly and dares not attack for the time being. This breath was born by Mr. Chu and has never endured it for so long.
When he went out, Chu Huaixian was so angry that his hands trembled. I didn't feel that when I saw the tip of the pen tremble when I picked up the pen, I realized that I was very angry.
Dropping the pen, Chu Huaixian stood up to go out. After taking a step, I felt that I was in a hurry and stopped to straighten my clothes. By steadilying his whole clothes, he went out to see his father Chu Shaofu.
Chu Shaofu is at home and has always seen many people. When the officials saw the prince coming, they all got up to greet him. Chu Huaixian asked someone in his father's room. He sat down outside in no hurry, talked slowly with the officials, and then slowly took care of his thoughts.
"The master let the prince in." Chu Huaixian made up his mind and came. He could wait. Chu Shaofu couldn't stand it when he saw his son sitting flat outside without attacking the book. A few words sent away an official in front of him and asked Chu Huaixian to come in.
When Chu Huaixian came in, Chu Shaofu frowned: "If you don't read, why do you come to chat?" Chu Huaixian bowed calmly and said, "My son came to see his father specially, and there is a sentence in his heart that he dares not reply."
"What do you want to say? The examiner of this subject is Lord Fang of the Ministry of Ceremonies. This person is also in line with your article." Chu Shaofu just said this and looked up at the gratitude in his son's eyes. Suddenly, he thought that he did not take advantage of his marriage. Chu Shaofu was annoyed again. Why should I pay attention to this rebellious son? It's useless to be dedicated to him.
Thinking that her wife sees Lin Xiaochu every day, although she doesn't give Xiaochu a good face, but Mrs. Chu's heart is actually blocked every day and sad. Only when she comes back to see Chu Shaofu at night can she relieve the suffiness in her chest.
As long as it came to Lin Xiaochu, Chu Shaofu was very angry with his son. He sank his face and took back the words and only said one word: "Say!"
Chu Huaixian knelt down and replied earnestly, "The father loves his son, and his son is very grateful. My daughter-in-law has entered the door, and there will be no more ridiculous things in the past. The son is immoral and talented, but he dares not take the advice of his parents. The son must be in this subject. After chasing his father in his career, he envies his parents for his deep affection, and his son can also learn a new one.
"Do you have to win today? Humph." As soon as Chu Shaofu heard the word "daughter-in-law", his face rose purple and gritted his teeth. More than a dozen officials outside were waiting to scold their son for their new daughter-in-law, and it was immediately spread. Chu Shaofu eagerly grabbed Chu Huaixian's must-have words and suppressed his words and scolded, "You are not a pony's first walk and think the road is narrow. You are arrogant, a worldless examinee, a talk on paper, it's Zhao Kuo, and obviously Zhao Kuo."
After scolding a few "Zhao Kuo" in a row, Chu Shaofu stopped his voice, and his purple face also returned to nature. Chu Huaixian just kowtowed: "If my son is hit, what will your father reward me?" Chu Shaofu calmed down and thought about his son's article. He also had confidence in his heart. Thinking about the format that the examiner took, he also understood it in his heart.
No longer angry, Chu Shaofu snorted: "I know what you are thinking. You can read at ease." Chu Shaoxian thanked him quickly: "Father Xu and son can rest assured, of course I can rest assured."
"Get out of here. The imperial doctor doesn't come to see it from time to time, and the medicine is also used from time to time. Don't worry." Chu Shaofu only promised Chu Huaixian this sentence. Chu Huaixian came out. Although it was not as satisfied as him, he was more or less comfortable. If you hold your breath like this, Chu Huaixian thought that the first illness would not get worse, and I would get sick first.
Walking through the shining wisteria bamboo shelf, I saw Xiaochu holding Xia Lv with spring water. Chu Huaixian hurried up and saw that Xiaochu's body was wet. He hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"I dropped the tea cup, and my mother asked me to go back to my room to change my clothes," Xiaochu could still smile and feel better with Chu Huaixian's warm and powerful palm. He couldn't help sticking to Chu Huaixian's body. Chu Huaixian half hugged Xiaochu back to change his clothes, and was not in the mood to ask how the tea cup fell.
He watched Xiaochu change her clothes in the room, and then sent her out of Mrs. Chu's courtyard for more than ten steps. He watched Xiaochu go in, and then came to the study.
At night, she said back and again: "I don't know how the second lady knew that the prince and the young lady were in the room during the day. She said that the young lady had hair and said that the young lady was going to go to the field and ask the young lady to check it out." Chu Huaixian has listened to it, but he can't get his left ear in and out of his right ear. He has to keep it in his heart when he heard it.
Duofu came out and asked him, "You have sued Yuzhao and Xiangsheng again. Your sister is not suitable for them, so you will complain vigorously." Duoshou walked away according to Duofu and said with a smile, "Which sentence is not true? Do you dare to hide a word from you?"
Duofu laughed and said, "If I reply, I will be more cruel than you." Duoshou stretched out his hand and patted Duofu: "So, the prince wants to reply, let's just tell the truth."
Two unlucky identity-like maids don't know anything. At night, he still waited eagerly for Chu Huaixian to come back. When Mr. Chu could calm down, he was very calm down. He was very gentle to them as usual and said, "Don't wait." Lifting his legs into the upper room, Xia Lu closed the door.
