... After sending Duanmu Xinmiao away exhausted, Wei Changying felt that all three of his clothes, inside and outside, were soaked. He was still in the cold room. If he were outside, he might have changed several clothes
"This Duan Mu Xinmiao is really torturing!" After seeing off the guests and returning to the inner room, Wei Changying lay down on the soft couch and said with emotion, "But luckily she is here today."
"My maid, I think the Eighth Miss is devoted to medicine!" Huang saw her forehead dripping with sweat, took a round fan, stood beside the couch and slowly fanned it for her, and said with a smile.
Wei Changying now agrees with this. Duanmu Xinmiao is obviously a person with different appearances. On the surface, perhaps because of the upbringing she received since childhood, she has not lost the grace that a lady should have. This is why in the imperial capital over the years, Ji Qubing's eccentric and difficult temperament has been widely known to everyone. His disciple Duanmu Xinmiao, who was as well-informed as Mrs. Su, actually thought that Duanmu Xinmiao was just a lady who had learned some medical skills from Ji Qubing - she was still a lady no matter how many words were added in front of it; but in fact, Duanmu Xinmiao was Her nature is exactly the same as that of her master, and she is very addicted to medical science. She is so addicted that she can't control how her behavior may cause misunderstandings and embarrassment to others.
Like before, I relied on Wei Changying to beg for jadeite, and this time I grabbed Wei Changying and talked about medical science. The former is because jadeite can be made into medicinal jewelry, otherwise no matter how good the jadeite is, I will throw it away in front of Duanmu Xinmiao. Duanmu Xinmiao didn't even bother to take a look; the latter thought he had found a soulmate, so he was afraid that the conversation would not be enjoyable enough... Unfortunately, Wei Changying came from a top scholarly family in the country, but his real talents were very poor. , for fear of losing the face of the family and not daring to continue talking to her, Duanmu Xinmiao could only leave reluctantly and regretfully...
Now that he thinks about discussing those profound and difficult medical theories with Duanmu Xinmiao, Wei Changying still feels horrified. He groaned and said: "I know she devotes herself to medicine, but I don't know anything about medical books. She kept saying 'Sure enough, She is indeed the legitimate daughter of the Wei family in Fengzhou. It makes me wonder if I can’t even understand what she says!”
Everyone in the room laughed, and the laughter of several little maids was particularly clear because of their age. Wei Changying saw Zhu Lan, remembered what happened before, and asked curiously: "Why do you understand Zhu Lan?" What did Duanmu Xinmiao say just now?"
When she asked this question, everyone turned their attention to Zhu Lan. Zhu Lan's face turned red and he fiddled with his clothes and said, "How can I understand what I'm saying to the young lady? Although my aunt taught me how to read and make accounts before. , but the maid is playful and takes advantage of my aunt's soft heart, so she learns a little bit randomly! "
"Then what did you say just now that you were stunned and delayed in bringing the things in?" Everyone asked in confusion.
Zhu Lan's face turned redder when he heard this and said: "Because, when the maid was about to come in, she heard Miss Duanmuba say... said something... The maid... The maid had some misunderstandings and only said Miss Duanmuba How... why did you say that to the young lady in front of a room of people in broad daylight? So I was so frightened that I only came to my senses when I heard the young lady's question."
Wei Changying was dizzy when he heard Duanmu Xinmiao talking. He turned around and forgot what she had said, but he didn't hear anything taboo about it. He became even more curious after Zhu Lan said this. , urged: "What did she say?"
Everyone listened attentively, but Zhu Lan couldn't be urged, so he had to say: "She... what did she say... what about the harmony of yin and yang... what about qi and blood... My maid... My maid thought that these were not the young lady's aunt before she came out of the cabinet." Is it something to teach? Miss Duanmuba hasn’t left the cabinet yet, and she said to the young lady in broad daylight... My maid just... "
"..." When Zhu Lan arrived, he happened to hear Duanmu Xinmiao expounding on Qi and blood in medical science. This little maid was not very careful in reading and writing, and had only a half-understanding of many words. However, Wei Changying came out of the cabinet to accept I think she was curious to eavesdrop on Huang's teachings on human ethics - but as I said before, Huang was born as a servant, and she was a respectable servant girl. So elegant.
The words were elegant and reserved. Wei Changying, who was not very attentive, didn't understand it at all. Zhu Lanxu, who was eavesdropping, listened carefully, but he didn't understand it because of his limited talent... So he cut off a paragraph of Duanmu Xinmiao's remarks. In terms of Qi and blood, based on what Huang had written down when he taught Wei Chang Ying, the medical principles discussed by Duanmu Xinmiao were taken to mean that the eighth young lady of the Duanmu family was so unrestrained and ferocious that a rich young lady who had not yet left the palace actually ran to the hospital in broad daylight. Jin Tongyuan came to discuss the boudoir with Wei Changying, who is now a married woman...
No wonder she said she was petrified. According to her understanding, it would have been good if she wasn't so frightened that she dropped the rose cake and rose water... It's really hard for her to reply to Duan Mu Xinmiao without accusing him of being shameless. I used an elegant and subtle wording like "I was stunned for a while"...
The scene was awkward for a long time, and Huang forced a smile and said, "It's getting late. Look at this hour, the young master will be back soon. Let's go and get busy."
Everyone wiped their sweat together and agreed: "Auntie is right, everyone goes to work, everyone goes to work!"
After everyone dispersed, Zhu Shi held back his laughter and pulled Zhu Lan, who was too embarrassed to lift his face, to leave. Wei Changying and Huang, who was the only one left in the inner room, looked at each other, both of them dumbfounded: "I thought Zhu Lan is really a naive student of medicine. He can even understand Duanmu Xinmiao's profound words. He thought that if this was the case, he would not waste her talent, so he simply asked her to learn from her aunt. Unexpectedly...unexpectedly She is even more ignorant than me!"
Huang suppressed a smile and said, "Young Madam, you are belittling yourself with what you said. Although Young Madam's talent and learning cannot be compared with that of the fifth young master in the family, the fifth young master will take over the position of the head of our family in the future, and it will be Mr. Zhijiao." Personal teaching, our clan leader personally supervises, Fengzhou Wei's name is pointed at the fifth young master! Besides, the young lady still has to practice martial arts, and she doesn't focus on civil affairs, otherwise she wouldn't be sent to school. Zhu Lan is just a little maid. Sister He taught them how to read a few words before, because she was afraid that our Wei family's maid would be embarrassed if it was spread. Even if she studied hard, what would she learn? "
Wei Changying frowned again and said, "When my aunt taught me before...she..."
"Ahem, I spoiled them too much in the past. We should discipline them in the future." Zhu Lan was forced to reveal that he had overheard Huang's instruction on personnel matters to Chief Wei. Just then, everyone was embarrassed, and Chief Ying then Send her down directly... But since the matter has been brought out, there is absolutely no reason to go unpunished, so Huang will agree to it.
It was embarrassing to talk about Zhu Lan's matter. Wei Changying reminded Huang not to forget to give Zhu Lan some clues, lest the little maid would be bold and dare to eavesdrop on anything he said. After mentioning this matter, he said sarcastically: " Let’s not talk about this... By the way, there is something I wanted to ask my aunt about last time, but I never managed to do it... Duanmu Xinmiao, is it true that all the thirteen concubines of her father were taken care of by her? "
The last time Duanmu Xinmiao said this, Wei Changying was not yet relieved. He only said that he would break Duanmu Xinmiao's legs and pull out his tongue and sell it. It was just an exaggeration during a quarrel. But this time I saw Duanmu Xinmiao talking and laughing while taking Jiang Zheng to test the medicine, and without any sense of shame... Wei Changying felt that Duanmu Xinmiao was not necessarily so ruthless!
After hearing this, Mrs. Huang's face froze, and after a moment she smiled awkwardly and said, "Well... the eldest master of the Duanmu family has only... taken six concubines so far."
Wei Changying was quite speechless and said: "So Duanmu Xinmiao seems to be talking nonsense about her dealing with her father's concubine?"
Huang smiled bitterly and said: "This maid that the young lady is suspicious of may be able to explain: Miss Duanmuba has such a temperament. If she wants something, she will get it by any means. Presumably she thinks that the young lady is most afraid of provocation by the concubine. , That’s why I said that to make the young madam ask questions, and then use this to negotiate terms with the young madam.”
"...I'm afraid that my concubine will provoke me?" Wei Changying couldn't help but said dumbly, "How is that possible?"
Huang would never tell her that the rumors in the imperial capital that Wei Changying fell into the hands of thieves and was insulted before he left the cabinet, although because Shen Zangfeng insisted on continuing to marry her and the passage of time, it is not as popular as last year, but The private discussions never stopped.
Duanmu Xinmiao was not familiar with the Shen family, but she had heard some things about Wei Changying, and took it for granted that Wei Changying had a low status in the Shen family due to pre-marriage issues, especially in the backyard where it was difficult to suppress the concubine, so he made nonsense He used "accomplishments" to try to convince Wei Changying - this mistress has such a personality. He said she was stupid but she was also shrewd, especially flexible and flexible;
After thinking about it for a while, Mrs. Huang smiled and said: "How many husbands in this world can be like our young master? Especially Miss Duanmuba and her daughter were deeply harmed by the instigation of their concubines. They decided to save others by themselves, thinking that We, the young master, are just like ordinary people, so we think that the young lady should be worried, but we don’t know that our young master is of noble character, how can he be compared to those people?”
Wei Changying thought it made sense and sighed: "Thinking about it this way, Duanmu Xinmiao is pitiful. Both her grandmother and mother have passed away. The eldest sister is in destitution. Although she still has the title of princess, it is just an empty title and she has no direct relatives. Brother support... I heard that the fight in the backyard of the Duanmu family was fierce."
Mrs. Huang smiled bitterly and thought to herself, Madam, do you still sympathize with Duanmu Xinmiao? Little did I know that when Duanmu Xinmiao said this to you, he was already sympathizing with you.
She was afraid that if she continued to talk about this, her secret would be exposed - Qian Moer's incident had not been over for long, and no one with eyesight had come forward yet. The young couple were so good that they were so good at each other, so why call them Chief Wei? How worried is Ying
So Huang changed the subject and said: "The second young lady is very upset about the discussion today. Young lady, don't look at what Madam just said about you, but your grievances and consideration of the overall situation are all seen by Madam. At this moment, the Second Young Madam doesn’t know how to feel sad in Wuhua Courtyard!”
Wei Changying snorted and said: "She is really looking for trouble. Does she really think that the girl of her tribe is a treasure and everyone is rushing to please her? In other words, she is just being affectionate and doesn't want to offend her. Otherwise, I will be here today. I don’t want to ask her to come to my house,” he said thoughtfully, “But then again, it’s a good thing that she’s here and willing to help me now...”
His expression became solemn, "How could you offend the prince? Xinmiao forgot about it while entertaining Duanmu! Go and ask Shen Ju over to ask carefully!" (To be continued)
