Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 432 - 430
Chapter 432: 430
What should I do now? Haven’t I caught the plague too!
Looking at the ladies and young ladies rushing for medicine, Liang Yanli’s heart tied into a thousand knots!
If she also went to get a bowl of medicine, wouldn’t that be too much of a slap in the face? And it would be herself slapping her own face.
No, she must return home immediately, let the First Prince fetch Doctor Luo, and have him prescribe medicine for her!
Liang Yanli still could not humble herself, and pregnant women should not take medicine randomly, so she could only leave in a hurry.
Xiao’er didn’t know how many knots Liang Yanli had in her heart. She told those ladies and young ladies that she would send some medicinal herbs to their mansions.
After hearing this, they each thanked her and left, lavishing praise on Mrs. Liu and Xiao’er along the way.
"I think the real generous house is Marquis Shengping’s Mansion. Whenever there is a difficulty, they are the first ones to provide supplies and manpower."
"Yes, and every time they give more than others, they donate to the point."
"In the future, I must learn more from Mrs. Marquis Shengping. Although they come from low backgrounds, such a young couple have established such a large estate without relying on their ancestors. Marquis Shengping was not only conferred marquis, but also served as a Deputy Minister in the Ministry of Works. How much talent must he have? You can’t find a second such house in the entire Imperial Capital."
.....
The Ming Mansion also came to distribute porridge today, right next to Xiao’er’s tent.
As the sun rose, Xiao’er decided to return home first as the medicine was almost distributed. She would leave the rest to her servants.
She walked over to Shen Nirui and Ming Jingya and asked, "Sister Nirui, Sister Ming, my mother and I plan to return home. Are you coming?"
Seeing that the porridge was almost served, Shen Nirui, who was anxious about her child at home, nodded: "Let’s go, we can take your carriage home. Our carriage from the mansion hasn’t arrived yet."
The Ming Mansion only had one carriage. The coachman sent them here in the morning and then sent Ming Zhijie to the office. the carriage from home still hadn’t arrived.
"Okay." Xiao’er nodded.
Just as several people were about to walk towards the parked carriage, Ming Zhijie and Di Shaowei came together.
"Your Darling is here, Sister Nirui, Sister Ming, you don’t have to hitch a ride with us anymore." Xiao’er saw the two men walking leisurely and said so.
Darling? What does that mean? The two of them looked at Xiao’er, not understanding.
"What does Darling mean?" Di Shaowei strode over and asked when he heard it.
"Darling means beloved, that is, the beloved person! You are Sister Ming’s Darling! Brother-in-law Ming is Sister Nirui’s Darling. This is a Western term, get it?" Xiao’er explained with a suppressed laughter.
This is what you asked yourself, don’t blame her if your face turns red later!
Upon hearing this, the faces of Shen Nirui and Ming Jingya turned red simultaneously.
Di Shaowei had thick skin, he thought Ming Jingya’s face was not red enough, he solemnly nodded, "Understood, this address is good, it’s not vulgar!"
Then he seriously said to Ming Jingya: "Darling, can we go home? I came here especially to take you home."
Ming Jingya was stunned by this address. She quickly looked around, seeing many people focusing their attention on them.
Ming Jingya really wished she could go blind and deaf at this moment! Then she would know nothing!
They are so far away, they should not be able to hear, right?
She was so embarrassed! Feeling her face burning, Ming Jingya lowered her head and said: "Don’t call me that! Let’s go!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she hurried towards the place where the carriage was parked. It was almost like walking and running at the same time.
"Darling, wait for me!" Di Shaowei laughed at the sight of Ming Jingya’s fleeing figure.
Darling your head! Ming Jingya roared in her heart, then simply started running.
Ming Zhijie walked over to Shen Nirui, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead, "Darling, shall we return home?"
Shen Nirui glared at him. Ming Zhijie spoke softly, and they were a couple, so Shen Nirui was not too embarrassed.
The two bowed and bid farewell to Mrs. Liu and Xiao’er, then left.
Shen Nirui’s maid was holding an umbrella behind them to shield them from the sun. Ming Zhijie swung his folding fan lightly with one hand, fanning her to disperse the heat, offering her coolness, while holding Shen Nirui’s hand with the other.
They chatted and laughed as they left Shen Bao’er’s sight.
The jealousy in Shen Bao’er’s eyes could not be hidden.
That was her husband!
The happiness that Shen Nirui is enjoying now should have been hers!
It was all hers!
I can’t go on like this! She’s not living like a person now!
Ever since Li Yunhua became a eunuch, he has turned into a monster. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang is the original wife, and the prime minister and his wife are blocking him, so Li Yunhua won’t do anything to her.
But Shen Bao’er was not so lucky. Prime Minister Li felt that it was her instigation that caused Li Yunning to fail to marry into the royal family. So not only was her daughter taken away by Mrs. Zhang to raise, Li Yunhua also played with her in various ways. A bit of dissatisfaction or a word that displeased him would result in a beating. She was living a life worse than a dog’s.
She can’t live this life anymore, she needs to find a way to escape from this suffering.
Mrs. Liu and Xiao’er also walked towards the place where the carriage was parked with smiles on their faces. Just as they were about to get into the carriage, Shen Bao’er chased after them, grabbed Mrs. Liu’s sleeve, and pleaded pitifully:
"Auntie, save me!"
"Lady, I am not your auntie, you have called the wrong person." Mrs. Liu withdrew her sleeve and spoke indifferently.
Time would dilute many past hatreds. Mrs. Liu no longer harbored the resentment she once had for the main family’s deeds, but still couldn’t accept them.
Besides, the words Shen Bao’er said reminded her that Shen Bao’er was an ungrateful wolf that could not be raised.
Shen Bao’er knew that her comments earlier had offended Mrs. Liu, but she had an excuse to round off that conversation.
Now her demands are not high, she just wants Mrs. Liu to help her escape the suffering in Prime Minister’s Mansion.
Li Yunning, fearing that she might have caught the plague, returned home early. This was a rare opportunity for her to go out, and now she was alone, she couldn’t waste it.
"Auntie, I know I spoke out of turn just now, but I had no choice. Li Yunning thought that she was forced to marry Chen Jin, all thanks to Xiao’er’s mischief. She wanted Auntie’s family to be discredited. That’s why she had me say those words. More than that, Li Yunning also wants to take revenge on Xiao’er, and Prime Minister Li also wants to deal with Marquis Shengping’s Mansion."
Hearing this, Mrs. Liu was startled, she quickly asked: "What do they plan to do to take revenge on Xiao’er and deal with our house?"
"Auntie, if you save me from Prime Minister’s Mansion, I will tell you what they are planning to do to get revenge on Xiao’er and deal with Marquis Shengping’s Mansion, is that okay? Auntie, I don’t want to negotiate terms with you directly. But in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, I’m really having a miserable time, wuwu..."
