Chapter 124 General's Concubine 8
After watching Jiang Chunxi leave, Liu Yaozhu said to Birou, "Send someone to guard the front yard. When the general comes back, tell me that he is not feeling well."
If she wanted Yue Zhen to feel more guilty about her, she would naturally have to resort to some tricks.
"By the way, did the old lady send someone to inform me that I was feeling unwell this morning?" Liu Yaozhu asked:
"I have sent someone over. By now the old lady should have known that the young lady was unwell," Birou replied, "I have also sent someone to invite the doctor to the mansion."
"Well! You did a good job." As she said that, Liu Yaozhu felt a headache. After all, she almost didn't sleep the whole night and just saw that concubine. How could her head not feel uncomfortable?
At the same time, in the old lady's yard.
After sending away the maid who came to report from Liu Yaozhu's courtyard, the old lady looked at Nanny Sun and said, "Yaozhu probably didn't sleep all night, otherwise she wouldn't be feeling unwell. I don't know how many tears she shed last night."
"Alas!" The old lady sighed helplessly, "If possible, I really don't want to be the bad guy, but there is really no other way. Yaozhu's belly has not moved, how can I not be anxious!"
"Old Madam, please stop feeling guilty," Nanny Sun advised. "Young Madam is just having a hard time letting it go. She'll be fine after a while. Besides, although you forced the general to take a concubine for the sake of the general's offspring, isn't it also for the good of Young Madam?"
"So I feel that it's too late for the young lady to thank you, and you really don't need to feel so guilty towards her."
"You don't understand," the old lady sighed again, "Forget it, I won't say it anymore. I hope Yaozhu can cheer up as soon as possible and get over the fact that Zhen'er has a concubine."
"Madam, Aunt Jiang is here to pay her respects to you." Just then a little maid came in and reported:
The old lady: "Let her in quickly."
"Yes." The little maid immediately turned around and walked out, and then saw Jiang Chunxi walk in.
"I pay my respects to the old lady." As soon as Jiang Chunxi walked in, she immediately bowed to the old lady with a smile.
"Okay, get up quickly! You must be feeling unwell right now, so stop squatting." Looking at Jiang Chunxi's smiling face, the old lady's mood suddenly improved a lot.
Jiang Chunxi stood up with a smile: "I am in good health. How can I feel uncomfortable? It is obvious that the old lady loves me and doesn't want me to squat any longer, so she found an excuse to let me get up quickly."
"Look, look at this child's little mouth, it's just like it was covered with honey," the old lady said to Madam Sun with a smile, then waved to Jiang Chunxi, "Come here, sit next to me."
"Yes." Jiang Chunxi came to sit next to the old lady with a smile.
As soon as she sat down, the old lady took her hand and asked with concern: "How was the general treating you last night? He was not rude to you, was he?"
It is certain that a girl will suffer the first time. The old lady was worried that although her grandson agreed to take a concubine, he was still holding a grudge in his heart, and all this grudge was directed at Chunxi, so she asked this question.
"No," Jiang Chunxi blushed and shook her head, "The general treated me very well last night and didn't let me suffer any hardship."
Jiang Chunxi was not lying. Yue Zhen was not the kind of vulgar man who would vent his anger on a concubine like her.
"That's good, that's good," the old lady said with a smile, "I'll ask Madam Sun to tell the kitchen staff to stew a bowl of bird's nest for you every day to nourish your body so that you can get pregnant as soon as possible."
"Madam," Jiang Chunxi's expression became even more shy, and then she straightened her chest and promised seriously, "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to get pregnant as soon as possible and not let you down."
The old lady was even happier now: "Okay, okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
"By the way, did you go to pay your respects to the young lady this morning?" the old lady asked:
"Of course I did," Jiang Chunxi replied, "I went to pay my respects to the young lady early in the morning and offered her tea. After I came out of the young lady's courtyard, I came to pay my respects to the old lady."
"But the young lady is kind-hearted. She told me that I don't need to go to her every day to pay my respects. I only need to go there on the first and fifteenth day of the month to pay my respects." Jiang Chunxi said coquettishly, "Madam, I will come to pay my respects to you every day. If I have nothing to do during the day, I can continue to do embroidery for you here."
"You know me well. I used to do embroidery every day, but now I am a concubine, and the young lady is kind and doesn't want me to serve her, so I can only serve the old lady. Otherwise, if I stay in my own yard every day and do nothing, I will be idle and moldy."
"You kid!" The old lady tapped Jiang Chunxi's forehead with a smile, "Okay, I'll do as you say. With a little girl like you accompanying me every day, our courtyard will be happier."
"Then I will have to use all my skills. After all, it is not easy to make the old lady happy every day." Jiang Chunxi said mischievously:
"Then I want to see how capable you are." The old lady said happily:
Seeing that the old lady was amused by Jiang Chunxi, Nanny Sun also smiled: "Madam Jiang is a sensible woman, otherwise she would not have been chosen by the old lady. However, I heard that the courtyard arranged by the young lady for Madam Jiang is very remote. Madam Jiang has to walk a long way to pay respects to the old lady every day."
According to Nanny Sun, the young lady is just confused. She herself cannot give birth. Logically, she should have arranged a concubine for the general to continue the family line.
But she was lucky enough. The old lady forced the general to take a concubine and even wronged her, which made the old lady feel guilty about her. But even so, the young lady was still not satisfied. The general's mansion was so big, with many empty courtyards, but the young lady had arranged Aunt Jiang to such a remote courtyard.
What's going on? Doesn't she want the general to go to Aunt Jiang's room more often? Doesn't she want Aunt Jiang to get pregnant as soon as possible?
The smile on the old lady's face faded, and she could only say to Jiang Chunxi: "I'm sorry for wronging you, girl."
Although she was not satisfied with the accommodation arranged by her granddaughter-in-law for Chunxi, the old lady did not want to change Chunxi's accommodation, otherwise it would be a slap in the face of her granddaughter-in-law, and she was also afraid that it would foster Chunxi's evil intentions.
"Madam, I don't feel wronged," Jiang Chunxi said with a smile, "Although the courtyard arranged by the young lady is a little remote, it is quiet and peaceful. I like it very much. As for walking a few more steps every day to pay respects to the old lady, what's the big deal? Just treat it as exercise! Only by exercising well can we better help the general have children."
