Chapter 385 Yi Xiu 3
Yixiu thought so, turned her head and smiled at Jianqiu: "Let's go see Honghui first, and then, while it's still early, go to the east to congratulate Fu Jin as soon as possible, so that we can return all the household goods in the mansion to her."
"Concubine...you want to give the housekeeper power to Concubine?"
Jianqiu, who was standing by, immediately showed an expression of great surprise on her face. It was obvious that she had never expected to hear these words from the concubine's mouth. Her lively little expression made Yixiu laugh.
So many years have passed that she almost forgot that Jianqiu was not always so dignified and self-restrained when she was young. It was just that after following her for a long time, she gradually became tainted by her bitterness.
"What do you mean by 'give'? She is the wife, so the housekeeping power belongs to her. I am just assisting her. Now that the new people have entered the mansion, it is time for us to set up the rules in the Beile Mansion."
Seeing Jianqiu's confusion, Yixiu bluntly stated, "Besides, what happened to Honghui this time really scares me. Now I've figured it out. What's the point of managing this household without knowing what's going on? I'm afraid some people will laugh at me behind my back, thinking I'm just like Su Peisheng to Prince Consort."
"I was blinded by jealousy and resentment. Actually, as long as we take good care of Honghui, what hope will there be in the future?"
"Concubine..."
Yixiu's words made Jianqiu feel distressed. She and Huichun had accompanied Concubine Concubine all the way to the present, and they understood Concubine Concubine's feelings for Prince Beile best. After hearing these words, she felt that Concubine Concubine was completely disillusioned with Prince Beile.
On second thought, this might not be a bad idea.
"Let's go quickly, don't make Honghui wait anxiously."
Yixiu stood up with a smile, saying that she was worried that Honghui would get anxious, but anyone could tell who was anxious.
Jianqiu smiled and responded, and the master and servant walked out affectionately. Yixiu turned her head and unexpectedly met Yinzhen's calm eyes. She subconsciously said, "The prince is still here."
As soon as she said this, Yixiu knew she had said the wrong thing. Yinzhen's expression visibly darkened, but perhaps because he was touched by Yixiu's expression, he just snorted lightly and stood up. "Let's go, aren't we going to see the child?"
He actually ignored what she said just now and gave her a way out.
Yixiu blinked, a hint of surprise in her eyes. It wasn't because of the other party's occasional thoughtfulness. After all, she almost lost her son yesterday. Yinzhen wasn't a powder keg. No matter how you think about it, it's impossible for him to get angry over her casual remark.
She was surprised that he had actually waited for her. The child was in the side room, and Yixiu had assumed Yinzhen had just come out to see the child and would leave after that. She hadn't expected him to wait for her.
Although he felt a little impatient, Honghui felt sorry for himself when he thought about how he had often cried because of Yinzhen's favoritism. If he saw his father and mother go to see him together today, the child would definitely be happy.
Thinking this way, Yixiu no longer felt how difficult it was to get along with Yinzhen. She couldn't escape him anyway, and for the sake of her Honghui, she would have to deal with him in the future.
Slowly persuading herself, Yixiu's face finally became less stiff, and she even forced herself to take two steps closer, saying with a gentle smile, "Prince, please go first."
"Um."
Yinzhen tilted his head to look at her and stretched out his hand in front of her. Yixiu immediately realized that he was trying to comfort her?
In the past, I was easily moved by other people's casual charity, but now... now I still have to pretend to be moved.
She extended her right hand. The dark blue casual clothes and the light green cheongsam matched well. The two of them walked hand in hand to the side room next door, one in front and the other behind. Just looking at their backs, they could indeed be said to be a good match.
The servant at the door quickly lifted the curtain. Yixiu took two quick steps and didn't notice that she and Yinzhen were walking side by side.
In the inner room, Ran Dong, who was coaxing Prince Honghui to take medicine, saw the two people coming and hurriedly stood up and bowed to make way.
Yixiu waved her hand, took the medicine bowl from her hand and sat directly beside Honghui's bed.
"Father, mother..."
The six-year-old child had endured such a long period of hardship that the little flesh on his body had dried up, making his dark eyes look even bigger. To be honest, he looked a little ugly.
The main reason is that he has been ill for a long time and his complexion is not good. The child's head-to-body ratio was already good, and he became too thin all of a sudden, which looks a bit scary.
But in Yixiu's eyes, her Honghui was naturally perfect. Hearing the child's pitiful cry of "Mother," her heart softened immediately, and she couldn't stop crying as soon as she opened her mouth:
"Hey, mother is here. How are you feeling, Honghui? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"I feel fine now. I'm no longer feeling uncomfortable. The doctor said that as long as I take the medicine obediently, I'll be well again soon. Mother... and Father, don't worry."
Honghui said a few words, and after all, he had lost some foundation before, so he felt a little weak.
Yinzhen frowned at this, still feeling uneasy about the child's health. Royal children were precious in every sense of the word, and Honghui had been so ill recently, and it was unknown whether he would ever fully recover.
After all, the words of these imperial doctors are not always accurate, and the child's illness may relapse. It is obvious that if Yixiu is like this, what if something happens to the child in the future...
Forget it, just take good care of it.
Thinking of this, Yinzhen rarely showed any tenderness towards his son. He walked over and sat in the seat that Yixiu had given up, and took the initiative to touch his son's hair. Seeing his son's face full of admiration, he sighed in his heart.
"Since the imperial physician has said so, Honghui must take the medicine carefully."
Yixiu followed his instructions and handed the medicine bowl over. Seeing Yinzhen looking up at her again, she pretended to be puzzled and handed the medicine bowl to him again.
Well, taking care of the kids occasionally is not a big deal.
Yinzhen looked down at his son, then up at Yixiu. He couldn't quite put his finger on what he felt, but it felt a bit strange, but it didn't seem worth it.
After a pause, he took the medicine bowl, put his arms around his son and fed him the medicine.
He was actually quite good at this job, but he usually did it with the women in the backyard. Ever since Fu Jin entered the mansion, he had naturally been dealing with Wan Wan, and that kind of tenderness and affection, it wasn't medicine, it was clearly love.
I feel a little uncomfortable while feeding my son medicine. I always feel like I am serving my son.
Seeing her son finish his medicine, Yixiu quickly stuffed a candied fruit into his mouth. The child stared blankly at the candied fruit, puffing his cheeks and letting the sweetness bring out an even sweeter smile.
Seeing him smiling so happily, Yinzhen couldn't help but pinch his son's cheek. Turning his head to look at Yixiu again, he saw her glaring at him for no apparent reason.
Yinzhen didn't explain and just picked up a piece of candied fruit from the small dish and put it into his mouth.
