Dowry maid's daily life [Red Mansion]

However, when Wang Ziteng came to the mansion, the good doctor of the Wang family had bandaged the wound of Eucommia, and Mrs. Li insisted on staying with teary eyes, her teeth clenched in distress.

Du Zhong was always uncomfortable. His mother's health was not good since he was a child, and he lost his mother when he was only ten years old. This son who is used to taking care of his younger sister and himself is really not used to an aunt who suddenly comes to ask for warmth.

"The wound was a bit deep and bled a lot. Fortunately, no bones were injured. After all, my brother is young and has a good foundation. Be careful of the wound and warm up your body. It will be fine in two months." Cen Langzhong replied.

Du Zhong hurriedly said to Mrs. Li: "Boy is fine, Madam, don't worry. It's getting late, I should go back." Ever since the old county lord brought his sisters back to Weiyuan, Du Zhong has never stayed in the palace again.

Wang Ziteng stood up, patted Du Zhong on the other shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's go back first, at least take the medicine, so that your aunt won't worry."

Cen Langzhong, who wrote the prescription, paused, pretending he didn't hear it.

This was probably the first time that Wang Ziteng admitted that Eucommia was his nephew, but Mrs. Li was not happy, and stared at Wang Ziteng's hand on her nephew's shoulder.

Wang Ziteng shook his head secretly, this distressed, it's not the injured side that was photographed!

But there is nothing I can do, just persuade my wife to go: "Tell this boy to rest for a while." He said and glanced at Du Zhong: "There is blood and dirt on his face. Change your clothes in a while, so that your sister won't worry about going home. .”

Mrs. Li and Du Zhong both nodded, and Mrs. Li also saw that her nephew was uncomfortable, so she had to leave reluctantly. Before leaving, she took another look at her nephew and estimated the size of her clothes and shoes in her heart.

After leaving the door, Wang Ziteng smiled and said: "I was injured more seriously before, and I haven't seen Madam like this. No matter how good my nephew is, he can't compare to me, master."

Mrs. Li raised her eyes and looked at him, Fang whispered: "Master asked for it, you are willing to be seriously injured! Brother Zhong, what is this? The child saved your life and was injured! I said Why are you making trouble for your children, why don't you tell my brother Zhong An Ansheng to live in the village outside the city for this period!"

Didn't you say that I didn't take care of your nephew?Wang Ziteng sighed, knowing that his wife was in distress at this time, and it was not the time to persuade her.

"What are your personal guards doing? The shining assassins can let you go!" Mrs. Li said with tears in her eyes.

Wang Ziteng didn't dare to speak any more. The fact that the assassin was able to break through the barrier of personal guards today was not due to the high skill of the assassin, but because Wang Ziteng deliberately let him approach - after all, one of the sons of the Supreme Emperor died. Unreasonable anger, especially those with high meritorious service, Wang Ziteng needs to put on another patch to let everyone know that Wang Ziteng is a thorn in the side of the traitor. Although he has made great contributions to defending the imperial city, he has also become a target for the enemy. One ebbs and another, if the Supreme Emperor suspects that he will not be the one who wants to vent his anger.Such bitter tricks are not afraid of getting old, as long as they are useful.

The only surprise was that this assassin did have two brushes, and no one expected his speed to suddenly increase.When Wang Ziteng was facing the sword, Du Zhong was right in front of him. Before it was too late, he had to block it with his left arm, leaving a little room for the right hand holding the sword to counterattack—fortunately, his armor was neatly worn, and he was blocked by the shoulder armor. , so as not to be cut off the arm.Rao is like this, the wound is also deep enough to see the bone.

But Wang Ziteng is not very grateful in his heart, just like Mrs. Li asked the guards, any of the guards beside him would die for him, even if Eucommia would not stop him, some would risk their lives to stand in front of him .For Du Zhong's actions, Wang Ziteng sighed a little at most, and admitted what his wife said, this is a good boy with a righteous heart.

Mrs. Li returned to the main courtyard and ordered people to search for clothes, shoes and socks from boxes and cabinets: "Hurry up and bring me the new set of clothes I made for the master, my brother's body fits just right, and then go get a jade belt and waist seal, brother My son is thinner..."

He also ordered to fetch the new shoes she made for Du Zhong, and said: "Fortunately, I magnified half of my finger. I saw that Brother Zhong's feet are bigger than before."

Wang Ziteng looked at it coldly, but the maids brought over a large box of new shoes. There were boots in it, and there were also black velvet butterfly double-beam shoes with cloud tops and flowers that young men loved to wear. It was not Wang Ziteng's right foot, which was a bit weird. The shoes look like normal and good shoes. How long have you been making them?

As soon as he showed his expression, Mrs. Li saw it from the corner of her eye, and immediately sneered: "I have been doing it since I knew my nephew. If you don’t recognize my aunt, how much does the master say is thanks to the master?”

Wang Ziteng said nothing.

It wasn't until the girl finished packing that Wang Ziteng said: "Madam, don't be angry, it's my fault. After a while, I'll ask Qin Tianjian to count on a good day. Let's post a post to invite someone, and it's easy to get the two of you together." Recognize the child."

"I'll send it to Brother Zhong myself." Wang Ziteng picked up the pair of buckskin boots that Mrs. Li picked out from thousands of people.

In the guest courtyard, a girl wrung out a hot towel and asked Du Zhong to wipe his face and hands, and another girl brought hot water to wash his feet.

Du Zhong hurriedly said: "Just give me a coat to replace."

The big housekeeper, Wang Fu, hurriedly apologized and smiled: "These people are not good at serving? I'll wash my brother's feet." This is blood and dirt, how can I change my wife's needle and thread?

The bluffing Du Zhong hurriedly waved his hands.

Wang Fu said with a smile: "The nanny in the wife's room said that a full set of clothes, shoes and socks will be available immediately. They are all made by the wife herself." Wang Fuxin said, if it is a needlework job, it is Mr. Zhong who specially put it in the muddy water. What's the point if you roll it out and put it back on again.

Du Zhong felt embarrassed, and sighed inwardly, Auntie is a solid person, but...

In the end, unwilling to let down Mrs. Li's kindness, Du Zhong said with a smile: "You go out, I will do it myself."

Saying that, I would like to emphasize one more sentence: "I am used to taking care of myself."

Who knows if the blood seeped into the upper of the shoe, Wang Fu peeked at the corner of the robe, revealing that the corners of the white cotton trousers inside were covered with black blood.Forget it, as long as you put it on cleanly, Mrs. Wang Fuliao must see how Young Master Zhong looks in the clothes she made by herself. If it weren't for the fact that the wound of Du Zhong couldn't see water, Wang Fu would have ordered someone to bring a bath tub. .

The big housekeeper, Wang Fu, deliberately behaved, but he cheated the two of them.

When Wang Ziteng came over, he was still surprised, why Wang Fu was standing outside the courtyard with a suitcase, Wang Fu hurriedly replied in a low voice: "Brother is not used to being served by others." So he took everyone out, Xiaoye Zhong was embarrassed.

Wang Ziteng thought that Du Zhong's boy always had a calm and steady look, and suddenly he was amused: He is not a big girl, so he is afraid of being seen?

Thinking in his heart, he waved his hand, picked up the package that the girl was holding, and a pair of boots in one hand, and walked in lightly by himself.

Du Zhong was wearing the uniform soap boots in the battalion, which were not very warm, and the wound on his right foot from the old year was also a bit uncomfortable-he was always careful, since Wang Ziteng seconded him from the battalion officer, Du Zhong deliberately only wore military boots. Soap boots with middle and high hair would rather be polished and cold.

At this time, he saw that everyone had dispersed, so he spread out the thin blanket on the low couch with one hand. Du Zhong planned to rinse it briefly, then wipe it dry and cover it with the thin blanket.Mrs. Li is caring, Du Zhong is not ignorant of it, as usual, today in front of her face, if she doesn't accept her aunt's affection, it will hurt people's hearts and feelings.

It's just that one arm is inconvenient, so I delay for a while, and wipe off the water drops with a cloth towel with one hand. Du Zhong let out a breath, and was about to stretch it into the thin blanket, when the person suddenly raised his head and was stunned—— Wang Ziteng stood there, staring straight at his right foot.

Eucommia's right foot was cold and worn, and the old wound was red and swollen, like a bump, which was more obvious than usual.

This person reacted quickly, and immediately came back to his senses, pretending to look down at his right foot, and said with a smile: "The boots in the camp grind your feet..."

As he said that, he stretched into the thin blanket, and Du Zhong still cupped his hands, thanking the clothes and the person who helped deliver the clothes: "Thank you for your trouble."

Wang Ziteng's brain buzzed, and his temples twitched as if they were bursting. He rushed up and lifted the thin blanket, held Du Zhong's right foot, stared at it with red eyes, and for a long while, he ate every word like a cannibal. Said: "When I was ten years old, I cut off my sixth toe with my own hands - I can tell the difference between a broken toe and a broken toe!" piece.

How could things be like this!Du Zhong kept calm, and silently recited what An An said: Kill him and deny him.With a dry laugh, Du Zhong broke away.

Wang Ziteng's eyes darkened, his mind was in a mess, as if he had thought a lot, but at the same time, he seemed to have not thought about it at all.

Du Zhong saw him stunned, immediately changed into his coat indiscriminately, and hurried out.

Wang Fu saw Young Master Zhong come out as if driven out by a ghost, and suddenly saw the blood oozing from the left arm of the new robe, and his eyes widened: "Brother, why are you bleeding again! Call Dr. Cen quickly! "

Du Zhong waved his hand and walked forward like the wind: "You sent the letter to my house, and I don't know what to worry about at home. I have to go back quickly."

Wang Fu quickly tossed his two fat legs upside down, and was so tired that he grabbed Eucommia's belt to stop him: "Brother, at least drink up the medicine."

Du Zhong was afraid that he would pester him again, "Where's the medicine?"

Wang Fu hurriedly opened the case, and half a bowl of medicine had spilled out. He was about to speak when Eucommia pinched the rim of the bowl with one hand and poured it down in one gulp: "Tell my wife, I'm afraid my sister will be worried, so I won't go to say goodbye." gone."

After all, he disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Unwilling and long-cherished for half his life, Wang Ziteng finally calmed down, there is no one else in this room!

Only after chasing out the gate, I only saw the back of Young Master Zhong riding a horse.Wang Fu shook his head and came back with a sigh. When he reached the gate of the guest courtyard, he saw the master rushing out fiercely.

Poor Wang Fu has a wide body and a fat body, but he didn't stop the master from lifting him up.

Wang Ziteng put away all the expressions on his face, only his hands holding Wang Fuyi's collar were bruised: "Where's Brother Zhong?"

"Go, go home." Wang Fu was even more afraid, and said stutteringly, "Master Zhong is afraid that Miss An of our family will be worried."

No!My sister is not from the Wang family, but Brother Zhong is his son!

After being confused for a while, Wang Ziteng managed to regain his senses, and immediately ordered his confidants to check Du Zhong, Yun Shi, and Du Dong...

The confidant is an old man with him, because he can ask: "Aren't you going to investigate the traitor?"

Wang Ziteng clenched his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Go and investigate!"

His subordinates went to do it immediately.

That night, Wang Ziteng sat in the guest room where Du Zhong had stayed until the fourth watch. He had a severe headache, but the guards still did not come to report.Seeing his dark face, Wang Fu was really afraid that something would happen, so he had to knock on the second door to send a message.

When Mrs. Li arrived, it was almost five o'clock. Mrs. Li didn't know what happened, but guessed that it was another strife, because she said angrily: "Master, I forgot that I still have injuries on my body. You just have to suffer like this, even Tomorrow, I will appoint you as a cabinet scholar, is there any order for this!"

Only then did Wang Ziteng look up at his wife who had been with him for many years, the corners of his mouth curled up stiffly, and he wanted to laugh, but for some reason two drops of dirty tears fell from his eyes...

Mrs. Li swallowed down a bowl of soothing soup, and Wang Ziteng rested in this room. The [-] medicinally effective soothing soup still only made him fall asleep for more than two hours.

And in this short time, Wang Ziteng has been dreaming.

In the dream, he wanted the Li family's property, so he didn't want his wife to recognize the child. He said: "It's fate to find other things."

Pushed his son away.

Brother Zhong was accepted as a disciple by Chen Ziwei. He felt that there was one less worry to worry about, and he laughed loudly: "Brother worshiped under him, because his character has caught the eyes of him and Lin Ruhai, it is Brother Zhong's good fortune."

Pushing his own son away again.

Then, Brother Zhong moved his family to Liaodong, and it was he who sent someone to threaten: "Brother, you'd better give up your idea of ​​going away... If you leave Duzhong, I can't guarantee the safety of my brothers and sisters. "

In front of Jiuxianju, the father and son did not know each other.

At the Duanyang banquet, the wine vessels were not enough to stand on the sidelines.

Xishan Yanzi, knowing that Brother Zhong had no money and power, bought the "Rotten Dragon Tail". He ordered his subordinates' family members not to tell his wife.

……

Today, Brother Zhong blocked a sword for him, he didn't appreciate it, what he thought was that some people would give their lives to block a sword for him!

The sword in the dream went straight to Brother Zhong's neck, what hurt was not his arm, but...

Wang Ziteng's face became hot, his son's blood sprayed all over his face——

"Ah—my son!" Wang Ziteng sat up with his eyes open suddenly, and the hot handkerchief in Mrs. Li's hand fell on the quilt.

"Master?" Mrs. Li was taken aback, "You have a fever and have been sweating coldly."

----

The sky was bright, and it was dark for the brothers and sisters of the Du family.

Yun An walked out of the room and saw her brother standing in the courtyard: "Brother, you are still hurt, go to sleep later."

Du Zhong was uneasy, because his negligence messed up all the plans of the brothers and sisters.

Yesterday, Eucommia hurriedly took Yun An back to this small courtyard - the small home of the two brothers and sisters.Even Song Chen didn't ask to follow, the two siblings sat opposite each other, worrying about how to push the "father" out of the sky.

Yun An thought hard all night, thinking about Wang Ziteng, thinking about Mrs. Li, thinking about Wang Ren, thinking about Ruiyun, thinking about the imperial court, thinking about the major treason case... thinking a lot, thinking about those clues over and over again.

Now, she said, "Brother, you said to him 'You seem to know too much!'"

Yun An thought about it all night, thinking that Wang Ren's weirdness might be great, but when did Wang Ziteng become less like the Wang family?The matter of palace change and rebellion is pushed backwards, and the one who benefits the most is the new emperor, followed by Wang Ziteng and other loyal ministers, loyal ministers? ...So, this girl wanted to teach her brother to cheat Prince Teng:

Wang Ziteng is not qualified to recognize his son at all - because he knows too many secrets.

----

Wang Ziteng never expected that what he heard from his son was not resentment, not resentment, no Du Dong, no Yun Shi, not even his wife and his sister were mentioned.When Brother Zhong put the evidence in front of him, he only pointed to the sky, and said calmly: "Master Wang, you seem to know too much." God forbid.

Wang Ziteng was in a daze for a long time, and suddenly remembered the day when he saw the scar on his right foot. The child seemed shocked... Wang Ziteng asked hoarsely, "You knew it a long time ago?" But never thought of recognizing me?

Du Zhong didn't nod or shake his head: "Master Wang, take care." Then he left.

After a long while, the guards saw the prince coming out from inside with red eyes.

The sun in the cold winter was not warm at all. Wang Ziteng looked up at the sky and wiped his face, as if he was the same as the cruel and merciless Beijing military envoy from before.
