MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 27 Let's just be ourselves
Chapter 27 Let’s just be ourselves
That night, there was no wind or rain, and it was quiet and surprisingly good for sleep.
It was also a sunny day when she woke up. Jingshu saw nothing beside her. She slept too deeply last night and wondered if Li Ling had returned.
She called Ziyun to wash up and get dressed. The two of them were looking in the mirror and putting on makeup when Li Ling, dressed in black and smart clothes, walked in.
It seems that he returned home last night and got up early in the morning to practice martial arts.
Ziyun was combing Jingshu's hair. Jingshu didn't turn around when she saw Li Ling coming in. She said to the mirror: "The prince is back."
Li Ling was walking towards this side. He paused after hearing the words, and after a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "Order someone to prepare breakfast. I have to leave early today."
Jingshu tilted her head slightly and winked at Danzhu who was standing aside. Danzhu then turned around and went to the kitchen, ordering people to set the meal.
After a while, breakfast was ready.
Jingshu wore her hair in a complicated style today. Seeing that the meal had been set, she looked in the mirror and said to Li Ling outside: "I'm not done yet. The prince, please use it first. You don't have to wait for me."
Li Ling didn't answer.
Jingshu didn't say much anymore. She sat quietly in front of the mirror, whispering to Ziyun from time to time about which hairpin should be inserted and which beads should be inserted, and she only focused on dressing herself up.
After a while, Jingshu finished dressing up.
The one at the end is a flower that is shy of the moon and shines brightly.
Jingshu walked outside slowly and unhurriedly, and saw Li Ling sitting upright at the table, but he didn't move the dishes. Jing Shu sat down at the table and asked curiously: "Isn't the prince in a hurry to go out? Why can't he eat quickly?"
Li Ling then picked up the chopsticks and replied: "There is no rush at this moment, let's use them together."
Jingshu winked at Danzhu who was serving the meal at the side and said: "Hurry up and serve soup and water for the prince to eat. After eating, the prince has some important things to do."
Danzhu agreed and stepped forward to serve the rice porridge for Li Ling. He brought it to him respectfully, then returned the rice porridge to Jingshu.
The two of them were eating face to face, and Li Ling asked, "Did the journey go smoothly yesterday?"
Jingshu nodded and said, "It has been sunny these past two days, and the water on the road has dried up, so the journey is going smoothly."
Li Ling took a mouthful of porridge, looked at Jingshu and said, "I came home late yesterday and saw you sleeping deeply. You must have been exhausted from the past two days."
Jingshu lowered her head to eat her food and replied calmly: "It's not bad."
Li Ling put down the spoon and said: "If you feel tired, there is no need to go to grandma to say hello today. I will order someone to go over and say hello later."
Jingshu then raised her head and said with a smile: "No need, I'm not tired. I haven't seen my grandma for several days, and I'm thinking about it. I'll go over to see her in a while."
Hearing this, Li Ling no longer persisted. He took out the scarf from the tray in Bilu's hand, tried the corners of his mouth, and said, "Then I'll get started."
Jingshu nodded and replied: "Your Majesty, please go and get busy."
Li Ling glanced at Jing Shu steadily, moved her thin lips slightly, glanced at the little girls serving on the side, closed her mouth again, stood up and walked outside.
As he walked to the door, he turned back to Jingshu and said, "I will try to come back as early as possible today. If it is late, I will send someone back to let you know."
Jingshu put down the chopsticks in her hand, looked up at Li Ling and said calmly: "Master, please feel free to go and do your work. If you are late, there is no need to worry about coming back. The errands are important."
Li Ling didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the door, striding outside.
When Jingshu arrived at the gate of Anxi Hall, she caught up with Grandma Xu leading Doctor Zhang in from the outside. Jingshu felt bad in her heart.
The only one in Anxi Hall who could bother the imperial doctor in the palace was the old lady.
Jingshu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Aunt Xu, why did you invite the imperial doctor here?"
Seeing that it was Jingshu, Grandma Xu sighed slightly and replied: "The old lady woke up early in the morning and said she was not feeling well. I was worried that she would fall into her old habit again, and as Dr. Zhang was not on duty today, I invited him to come over and take a look. " Jingshu said to Dr. Zhang, "In this way, Zhang will be able to cure the disease."
Physician Zhang hurriedly replied: "Mrs. Shizi, you are too polite."
With that said, the three of them entered Anxi Hall together. The old lady was lying on the couch, her eyes were closed and her face was very unhappy.
Mother Xu led Dr. Zhang forward. Dr. Zhang took out the pulse pillow and took the old lady's pulse carefully. After leaving the inner room, Jing Shu hurriedly asked: "Yi Zheng, is grandma's illness serious?"
Dr. Zhang stroked his gray beard and replied: "The old lady is suffering from internal and external burns and a sudden attack of the heart. It's not a serious problem. It's just that the old lady is old and must not be irritated again, otherwise it will be harmful to the body." damage."
Jingshu said: "Excuse me, the doctor is just prescribing medicine for my grandmother."
Physician Zhang wrote down the prescription and handed it to Jing Shu.
Nanny Xu sent Dr. Zhang out, and Jingshu sent the right person to go out and get the medicine according to the prescription.
After a while, Jingshu bought back the medicinal materials. Jingshu carefully picked out the medicinal materials according to the prescription, put them in a medicine jar, cooked them on the fire, and then brought them into the old lady's bedroom.
Mother Xu was serving in front of the old lady. Seeing Jingshu doing it herself, she felt mixed feelings in her heart.
Although the old lady has a noble status and enjoys all the wealth and honor in the world, she is also a miserable person.
The two daughters entered the palace one after another, but neither of them ended up well. The eldest daughter-in-law was a princess, and she was at odds with her son, so how could she serve her at the bedside? The second daughter-in-law was even more hopeless.
Whenever he is sick, he can be filial piety. The second lady who just spent was the first.
Mother Xu took the medicine bowl and said, "Just let the servants do it."
Jingshu didn't say much, just said: "I have used a fan to warm the concoction, and it is just right to drink it now." After saying that, she sat on the edge of the cave and gently helped the old lady up, letting her lean against her, and said: "I'll help grandma, and grandma will give her medicine."
Mother Xu agreed and fed the concoction into the old lady's mouth one by one.
After giving the medicine, Jingshu gently placed the old lady back on the pillow and said to Grandma Xu: "Grandma Xu has been busy all morning and is tired. Go and rest for a while. I'll keep watch here."
Grandma Xu is not afraid of being tired, but if Jingshu can have such filial piety, the old lady would be happy to see her when she wakes up. She said happily: "My old body is indeed useless, so I will be able to help the second lady."
Jingshu replied: "Mommy, please go back and take a rest for a while. If something happens to grandma when she wakes up, I will order someone to find grandma."
After a while, the third girl came over and entered the main room. Seeing the old lady lying on the couch with her eyes closed, she hurriedly asked: "I heard that grandma is sick? What is the disease? Is it important?"
Jingshu made a silent gesture towards her, took her to the outside, and replied: "The imperial doctor came to see her this morning and said it was nothing serious and prescribed medicine."
The third girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's fine. It's nothing serious."
Jing Shu took the opportunity and said: "The imperial doctor said that my grandmother is old and can't bear the stimulation. I can't make her angry anymore in the future. Do you understand?"
The third girl nodded, and then said a little unconvinced: "Although I have been naughty and made my grandmother angry, I am always better than my cousin. Although she looks honest, she is always either getting into trouble or crying. , which always makes grandma anxious and angry."
"Huh! Grandma is ill this time, and it must be because of her."
Jingshu looked at the third girl and said angrily: "It's all about filial piety. There's no way to make the old man angry. She is her and you are you. Let's just be ourselves."
The third girl felt much better after hearing what Jingshu said.
The second sister-in-law refers to her as "we", that is, she is in the same group.
That imperial cousin at least couldn't take away her beloved second sister-in-law.
Third girl@青鸾: Haha, my second sister-in-law loves me the most, and you can’t take her away.
Qingluan: Silly girl, why should I steal your second sister-in-law? What I want to rob is your second brother!
Third girl: As long as I’m here, don’t even think about it!
