Chapter 47 After the matter is over, I will invite someone to Xie's house to propose marriage
She cried for a while, and then she didn't know whether his comfort had an effect or she just ran out of energy. Her crying gradually stopped, her hand holding him became much looser, and her whole body became more relaxed.
Rong Ci asked someone to help her lie back down.
After crying for a while, her throat was probably sore. There was still some sweat on her forehead and her breathing was choking. She seemed to be in pain. She closed her eyes and frowned.
The maid took some warm water and fed it to her with a spoon. She drank some. Maybe her throat was really sore and her face wrinkled up when she swallowed it. But she probably felt thirsty again, so she had to bear the pain and drink some.
"Ninth Young Master, please go back first. This servant will wipe Miss Xie's body."
Rong Jiu nodded and was about to turn around and leave when he heard some noise by the lake in the backyard. It seemed that someone looking for someone had arrived.
His steps paused slightly.
It's not that he doesn't want to send Xie Yixiao back to the people in the Changning Marquis Mansion, but it's still unclear who attacked her at this time. If she goes back like this, who knows that the other party won't attack her a second time.
She has no power to resist now.
After thinking about it, he said: "I'll go and tidy up the dormitory. In a while, you will help Miss Xie to rest in the dormitory. If anyone comes, you should ask her to keep quiet in the room."
The maid said yes, and then saw him go back to the dormitory to tidy up the bedding on the bed. The two maids worked together to help Xie Yixiao up, and he took the bedding from the wooden couch to make the bed.
After everything was done, the two of them helped her lie down on the bed.
Rong Ci lived a simple life, his bedroom was clean and simple, the air in the house was light, and the windows were clear and dust-free. At this time, the windows were opened a little, and the night breeze blew in from the outside, carrying some faint peach blossom fragrance.
The maid took the copper basin, kettle and other items into the bedroom, and then closed the door to the bedroom.
Rong Ci sat on the armchair behind the desk, looking down at the palace lantern on the desk, feeling uneasy for a while.
About a moment later, there was a knock on the courtyard door. He stood up and opened the door, only to see it was a fellow martial monk from the temple. They greeted each other.
"Uncle Qingchen."
"Several nephews."
Qingchen is his dharma name at Yunzhong Temple. He studied under Master Huiyuan in the temple. His status is a generation higher than this group of monks, and he is respectfully called Master Uncle.
A monk asked him: "May I ask my uncle, did you see anyone or hear any sounds today?"
At this time, the moonlight was bright, and the peach tree in the corner of the yard was bathed in the moonlight. The night wind blew, and the branches swayed gently. Although it was already night, the branches were red and bright, and there was a light fragrance.
"No." He said, "Except for some noise at the lake, there was no other sound, and I never saw anyone."
The monk nodded: "I'm sorry to bother you, uncle."
After saying that, several monks turned and left.
Rong Ci stood at the door of the yard for a long time. When he closed the door, he walked back a little slowly. The moonlight fell on him, reflecting his silhouette on the ground.
Probably he didn't know why he retreated again and again, gave her the dormitory where he had lived for many years, and now he broke the rules for her.
He thought he should go down the mountain and go home.
Yunzhong Temple is indeed not suitable for him to stay any longer.
There were still people busy in the lake in the backyard at midnight, and they didn't disperse until the middle of the night. After Xie Yi laughed and cried, he calmed down, but he was still a little hot. When the fever subsided in the second half of the night, he fell asleep peacefully.
.
The two maids breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the yard next door. After a while, another person came to watch the night.
In the middle of the night, Rong Ci took a rest on the wooden couch in the side hall.
In the early morning of the next day, as the morning light dawned, people in this courtyard became busy. Those who should be going to the martial arts hall went to the martial arts hall, and those who were supposed to go to the outer hall were busy going to the outer hall. People passed by in front of the yard from time to time.
When the sun gradually rose and the morning fog was about to dissipate, a maid brought some food: "Madam asked someone to cook some porridge for Miss Xie, and by the way, she also made it for the Ninth Young Master. The Ninth Young Master will eat some today."
, there is no need to go to the temple canteen.”
Rong Ci nodded, and the maid put his portion on the table, and then carried the other portion to the dormitory. Rong Ci smelled it and found that the box still smelled of medicine, so he asked, "Did you boil the medicine for Miss Xie?"
"
"Back to Mr. Jiu, yes, the female doctor asked the slave to feed Miss Xie some food, and then feed her some medicine."
Rong Ci nodded and let her go.
The maid woke Xie Yixiao up. She was groggy and didn't know where she was, but she didn't know if she was really hungry or something else. She ate all the porridge the maid fed her, and her face wrinkled up when she drank the medicine.
But I still ate it one bite at a time.
It really looks a bit like a baby bird opening its mouth and waiting for food.
The maid's eyes couldn't help but soften a little. After feeding her, drinking the medicine, and wiping her face, she came out with the suitcase.
"Madam said that this slave is the maid beside Madam. If someone is missing, she always feels unaccustomed to serving her. So after I gave Miss Xie the medicine, I will go back to Madam."
"As for Miss Xie, Madam also said that since it was saved by Ninth Young Master, she will be left to Ninth Young Master to take care of her."
Rong Ci paused slightly, then raised his eyes to look at the other party.
The slave didn't dare to meet his eyes, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "This is Madam's order, I don't dare to disobey it."
Ninth Young Master, you'd better seek happiness for yourself, my servants can't help you.
Seeing that he frowned, the maid added, "I will bring you food and medicine at noon. Then I will hand it over to the Ninth Young Master. I will leave."
After that, she picked up the suitcase and left quickly.
Rong Ci sat in the bright hall, stretched out his hand and frowned, feeling a little helpless, and turned around to go to the yard next door, where Mrs. Rong Guogong was sitting under the eaves.
There is also a peach blossom planted in the courtyard, and it is the time when the flowers are blooming.
She was drinking tea and admiring flowers under the eaves, with a smile on her face. When she saw his figure appearing at the door, she waved him over: "Come and sit."
Rong Ci stepped forward and said, "Meet my mother."
"Sit down." Mrs. Rong Guogong asked someone to bring him a cup of tea, and then said with emotion, "The peach blossoms in Yunzhong Temple are blooming very well. Even just one tree can make the entire courtyard bright.
Get up and let people look at you and feel better."
"When your mother and I were young, I felt that these flowers and plants were very delicate and could not withstand the slightest bit of wind and rain, so I really couldn't appreciate them. Now that I'm older, I can appreciate the beauty of these flowers."
"It shows that people's thoughts are not static."
When she was young, Mrs. Rong Guogong was also a female general who could carry a gun and go into battle to kill the enemy. She was called a heroine. In the past, when she went out, others would respectfully call her Princess An Ding instead of Mrs. Rong Guogong.
The title of 'An Ding' is not something that ordinary royal princesses can afford. This is her life's achievement, and she also has a mark in the history books of Dongming.
That is to say, when I got older and became a grandmother, my name was changed.
"After the incident is over, I will invite someone to go to the Xie family to propose marriage."
