Chapter 239 Is She Really That Enthusiastic?
Chapter 239 Is She Really That Enthusiastic?
Jiaorou was making soup for Daiyu in the kitchen when she suddenly heard a muffled sound in the room, as if something heavy had fallen to the ground.
Her heart couldn't help but tighten, and she murmured, "Oh no, Yu'er must have fallen!"
Thinking of this, she hurried into the room.
However, as soon as she reached the door, she saw Daiyu lying straight on the ground with her eyes closed, as if she had lost consciousness.
She saw at a glance that the plate of cakes on the table was empty, apparently eaten by Daiyu.
Jiaorou panicked, and she silently concluded in her heart that there must be something wrong with the plate of pastries!
They must have poisoned it, but I didn’t find out!
She didn't have time to think about it, and walked straight to Daiyu, rubbing her chest and saying loudly:
"Yu'er, Yu'er, what's wrong with you?"
Just as she was thinking about letting the maid go to see the doctor first, she heard the maids' greetings from the yard.
It turned out that it was the eldest wife who came.
She felt that the prince was not in the mansion at the moment, so she should act like a hostess. Moreover, Concubine Yu had fallen into the water that day, so it would be nice for her to come and show some concern just to show her presence.
As soon as she entered the yard, she heard Jiaorou's heartbreaking cry in the room:
"Yu'er, Yu'er, what's wrong with you?"
The eldest wife couldn't help but frown, curled her lips, and a barely perceptible look of annoyance appeared in the corner of her eyes.
She felt that as a concubine of a royal family, she only knew how to scream and shout when something happened, which was not the behavior of a wife of a wealthy family!
But she was afraid that the maids would notice her disdain, so she hurried back to her room.
As soon as she stepped into the room, she saw Daiyu lying straight on the cold ground, as if she was sleeping.
The delicate body trembled slightly, and a pair of jade hands kept gently rubbing Daiyu's chest, as if trying to wake Daiyu up in this way.
A feeling of contempt could not help but well up in the eldest wife's heart.
In her eyes, this Jiao Rou was no different from Aunt Lan, and was simply stupid!
The eldest lady shook her head helplessly, then took off her cloak and walked slowly towards Daiyu.
When she got closer, the eldest lady reached out and pulled the crying Jiao Rou away without any hesitation.
Then she stretched out her slender hand and gently placed it on Daiyu's wrist where the pulse was.
Jiaorou watched in surprise as the eldest lady did all this. She rubbed her eyes and couldn't believe that this was something a lady could do.
I wondered how she could do everything and even take people's pulses?
The eldest lady held her breath and listened intently to the beating of Daiyu's pulse.
A long while passed in silence like this, and the eldest lady finally loosened her fingers, and a faint look appeared on her beautiful and dignified face.
She turned around and said expressionlessly to Jiao Rou who was standing beside her:
"Don't panic, she's fine.
I think it was due to excessive hunger, and the fact that there was a fetus in the belly, the body could not bear it for a while and she fainted.
After she wakes up, give her some honey water to moisten her throat, and let her rest for a while before eating."
After saying this, the eldest wife once again glanced at Daiyu, who was still unconscious on the ground, and Jiaorou, who looked bewildered, and said to the maids with a smile:
"Come and help, lift your concubine onto the bed!"
Jiaorou then remembered that the ground was too cold. Why didn't she think of carrying Daiyu onto the bed just now?
While she was in a daze, she heard the eldest lady directing the little maids to slowly carry Daiyu forward. She hurriedly rushed over and helped carry her from the side.
The eldest wife said anxiously:
"Slow down, slow down, let's put Concubine Yu on the bed steadily.
Listen to me shouting slogans, 1, 2, 3..."
Who knows, maybe Daiyu really fainted due to hunger as the eldest lady said, or maybe she was shaken awake when everyone carried her, and she slowly opened her eyes as soon as she got to the bed.
Jiaorou rushed to Daiyu's side and said anxiously, "Sister, you really scared us. It was Dafujin who took your pulse! Are you okay?"
Daiyu felt dizzy and dizzy, but she realized that she had made everyone worried again, so she forced a smile and said, "I'm fine, don't worry!"
Unexpectedly, the eldest wife came over at this moment. She leaned over and said to Daiyu with a smile:
"Remember to eat well in the future.
When you feel dizzy, eat something.
You are experiencing insufficient Qi and blood during pregnancy, so remember to take good care of the baby!"
Daiyu hastily raised her head and said to the first wife with a smile:
"Yu'er, I'm really sorry to have caused you so much worry and trouble!"
The eldest wife smiled and said hurriedly: "This little help is nothing. You take good care of yourself. I'm going back to my room!"
As soon as the eldest wife left, Jiaorou quietly pointed to the dishes on the table and asked Daiyu:
"Sister, did you feel anything unusual when you ate that plate of cakes?"
Daiyu thought for a moment and said firmly, "There's nothing unusual about it. It tastes almost the same as our pastries!"
Hearing this, Jiaorou thought for a long time, then looked at the plate again, picked it up and put it to her nose and smelled it for a while, but she didn't find anything special.
She had no choice but to believe what the eldest lady said, that Daiyu fainted because she was pregnant and too hungry.
Seeing Daiyu had finished her meal, Jiaorou thought she had nothing to do at the moment, so she smiled and said, "Sister, I'll go back to my room and take a good rest."
Jiaorou had just left, and Daiyu had taken the pregnancy-maintaining medicine and was about to lie down to rest, when the little maid from Aunt Lan's room came again.
She came quietly to Daiyu, greeted her, and then, smiling, took out a plate of cakes and said softly:
"Fujin Yu, our aunt is thinking that you, Fujin, are suffering from severe morning sickness right now.
There's an old man in our room who makes delicious hawthorn and rose cakes, so I brought them here especially for you to try!"
Daiyu smiled and said, "You are such a clever little girl, and your little mouth is so sweet!"
After saying that, she took out a hundred coins from the drawer. The girl thanked Daiyu and left with a smile.
Daiyu thought that she had just finished her meal, so she would leave some for Jiaorou to come and have some food with her, so she lay down to rest.
The little girl took the hanging money and left Cuizhu Garden happily.
She thought: No wonder others say that the concubine is so good, she is so kind and amiable, and has no airs at all.
She was walking forward happily, but unexpectedly she ran into Aunt Lan who was coming over.
She hurriedly hid the hundred-yuan bill in her hand into her sleeve, walked over to Aunt Lan with a flattering face, and said with a smile: "Aunt, I've delivered the cakes you asked me to bring!"
Aunt Lan looked around and took her to a secluded place.
She whispered in the girl's ear:
"Did Mrs. Yu eat all the cakes I sent her the other day? Did you take back the plates?"
The girl suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said cautiously:
"Auntie, I was so busy talking to Consort that I forgot to take the plates back!"
Unexpectedly, Aunt Lan flew into a rage. She angrily cursed, "Fool, idiot! I told you again and again to take that plate back, only to let you go over and deliver the cakes again. You really don't learn your lesson!"
After saying that, he reached out his hand to hit the girl.
The girl knew Aunt Lan's temper very well, and was trembling as she begged her to spare her. The concubine was easy to talk to, so she just went and got the plate!
Unexpectedly, Aunt Lan became even more angry when she heard this and cursed loudly: "She is easy to talk to, but I am the unreasonable one!"
After saying that, he raised his hand, grabbed the little girl and was about to hit her, but was stopped by a pair of people.
That person was the eldest wife.
She was just walking around here at the moment, and unexpectedly ran into Aunt Lan who was here scolding the little girl.
She waved her hand to signal the girl to go down first, turned around and stared at Aunt Lan, and said lightly:
“It’s important to put away a dish early or late!
There must be something else hidden in this cake, the real purpose is not just the cake itself!"
