Chapter 1285 Willing to be an ugly girl 12
Caiyue looked at A Ling and pretended to be brave enough to reply: "Aunt Aiye had an accident just now. It is said that when she went to Mrs. Lunzi's place, she accidentally fell down and hit her head in the wrong place. She may not survive."
This is a bit unexpected. Thinking about what I just said to Mrs. Akiko, this mother became really fast.
But yes, I can't do anything to the eldest lady, but I can still do it to my daughter's wet nurse. Ai Ye was injured again when he went to Mrs. Lunzi's place. It was probably a trick used by Mrs. Mingzi to lure the enemy. When he saw that Ai Ye had really gone, he left without anyone noticing. Sure enough, something was going on.
Since I don’t want my daughter anymore, it would be a disaster to keep her, so I decided to just give up.
I was originally thinking about how to deal with this wet nurse, but I couldn't let her happily follow her daughter into the palace to enjoy the blessings.
The body owner entered the palace at that time and let the wet nurse and her daughter die without closing their eyes. She did not want to enter the palace again this time, but she could not let go of the wet nurse who helped commit evil in vain.
Xining said "Oh" and thought for a while: "A Ling, just go with Caiyue, talk less and cry more. Just say that I am unwell and can't come to visit, and I will send you two to take care of me. What's the matter?" Just do as you are told. Come and reply when you are done.”
Natsuki was still young and agreed immediately.
Aling was stunned.
Xining saw it clearly and added: "No matter how late it is, I will come over and say something."
Reiko agreed. Seeing Miss Takashi holding the book and reading it again, she stood up and took Natsuki to Ai Ye.
Along the way, A Ling kept muttering in her heart, what happened to Miss Zunzi? If it were before, as soon as she heard Ai Ye acting like this, she would immediately get up and go visit her. But today it was like this, she seemed to be caring, there were two maids lined up, but in fact she was very indifferent.
Soon after, Mrs. Akiko sent a maid to help organize things. This made Natsuki, who was so busy and didn't know what to do, let out a sigh of relief.
After A Ling and Natsuki left, packing their luggage fell on Xia Shu. At about the same age, Natsuki is far inferior to Reiko. After all, she is only eleven years old. When it comes to moving, she is in a hurry.
"This, this, remember, these are Miss Zunzi's daily clothes...this and this box are Miss's rouge, gouache, and jewelry..."
The maids sent have all been serving Mrs. Akiko. After all, Mrs. Akiko came from the Genji family, and two of them were married together. They work quickly and neatly. It only took half a day to divide the items into three parts: urgent need, needed and follow-up. The urgent items were packed and shipped together tomorrow. The other two copies will be shipped later.
With fewer things, you can walk faster on the road, and you can take them out and use them immediately when you get somewhere.
Under the guidance of two senior maids in their fifties, Xia Shu could only nod vigorously.
After cleaning up, Mrs. Akiko asked someone to bring dinner. It was a bit larger than what Ah Ling brought, and there was also a portion of kelp and tofu soup. This tofu is a rare thing. Except for the palace, few nobles can eat it.
Although Xi Ning is not as impressed with tofu as people of this period, he still appreciates Mrs. Akiko. Mrs. Akiko gave birth to her youngest child when she was in her forties, so her love for her was certain.
After eating, gargling my mouth and face, and lying down, while I was drifting off to sleep, A Ling came back.
After lighting a lamp, Aling knelt outside the tent and asked softly: "Miss Zunzi, are you asleep?"
"Huh?" Xining made a nasal sound.
Hearing that the young lady was awake, Aling replied: "Aunt Aiye left, she went quite peacefully."
Peaceful? Even if it was unsettling and crying, Mrs. Akiko would not pass on the news.
Xining pretended to say: "Hurry up, help me up, I want to go take a look." The slightly trembling sadness even moved him. But he still lay under the quilt, motionless.
Even though it's spring, the weather is still cold at night, and the quilt is so warm. A Ling immediately said: "Mrs. Mingzi said there is no need for Miss to go over. This person has just died and someone will take care of him. Miss is feeling better now. How can she go over and see the dirt? She will be sad and sick again."
< br>
Calculating the time, it was not too late, and it was really the right time to die. So there is no need to say anything, whether or not I will take it with me tomorrow, this mother is really awesome!
A Ling was afraid that she would be asked to go again, so she quickly said: "Mrs. Mingzi said that she will make the decision in everything. Miss, you don't have to worry about it. Get some rest early. You have to go to the village tomorrow."
"Well, then you should go to sleep. Then you can send a mother-in-law to go. It's always a bad thing if you don't go." Xining continued to close his eyes and sleep in a daze.
After hearing this, A-ling went out for a while, came back, opened her shop outside, lay down and fell asleep. Originally there were three maids working in shifts, but now because Miss Zunzi is unwell, all three maids sleep outside the tent, lying in three directions, so that if there is any evil, they can block the misfortune of the master.
Mrs. Akiko was very fast. After packing the person in the middle of the night, she put the person in the coffin and sent it to the temple. After leaving it for three days, she found a place to bury the person.
As for Ai Ye's thirteen-year-old daughter, she will find a family. According to Mrs. Akiko's character, it would be impossible for her to be the main wife, let alone to accompany Xizi into the palace.
Xining woke up in the morning but didn't dare to get up. Because I woke up from hunger, I could only reduce my activity level and wait for breakfast to come.
When breakfast comes, we start eating porridge. A Ling and the others started to prepare their clothes. After eating and dressing up, they were about to go out.
A Ling asked: "Which outfit are Miss Zunzi going to wear?"
Clothes don't matter, can you have another bowl of porridge? This is not enough, the baby will starve to death.
Xia Shu couldn't help but ask: "That Aiye just went there yesterday. Would you like me to wear mourning clothes for three days to show my kindness, so that the Taoist priest can see my kindness?"
The mourning clothes during this period start from gray. The darker the color, the closer the person is. If the parent passes away, black mourning clothes should be worn.
If the wet nurse dies, she wears gray mourning clothes for three days until she is buried, as a sign of filial piety.
Xining said nothing and continued eating as if he didn't hear anything.
A Ling looked at it and immediately lowered her voice and scolded: "Master Taoist and Mrs. Mingzi are both fine, but we are so happy to meet Miss Weizi and Miss Xizi. Wearing mourning clothes is looking for bad luck. Don't mention it again!"
Natsuki next to her was smart and immediately said: "Why don't you wear that apricot-colored Tang Yi woven with yellow chrysanthemums? It's elegant and rich."
Xining took a sip of porridge: "Just that one."
Natsuki realized that she had said the wrong thing and was relieved to hear that the lady did not blame her. But it was inevitable that A Ling would give her a few warning glances.
Xining got dressed, knelt down in front of the dressing table, and let the maids comb her hair.
At this time, Mrs. Akiko came over to make arrangements, and she quickly turned around and saluted.
When Mrs. Akiko saw the clothes she was wearing, the corner of her mouth curled up: "It seems that my lord has grown up and is becoming more and more sensible."
He even picked up the comb himself and helped her comb her hair. While combing her hair, she was telling her various things, no less nagging than a married daughter.
After everything was packed, Mrs. Akiko asked the maid to bring over the small box she was carrying and handed it to her: "Keep these by your side."
