Except for festivals, the Ren family would collect their meals at the main kitchen every day, according to the number of people in each room and courtyard. Only Mrs. Ren's Ronghua Courtyard had a kitchen; even the eldest wife, the head of the family, ate in the main kitchen.
Of course, if you give more money in addition to the allowance, you can also start cooking in the big kitchen.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi nod, Xier immediately ordered the maids Qingmei and Xueli to fetch water for Ren Yaoqi to wash. She then went forward to help Ren Yaoqi put on a lotus green Songjiang cotton jacket.
This kind of jacket is worn indoors in winter when you don't have to go out to meet guests. It is comfortable, light and warm.
"Why are you here?" Ren Yaoqi asked when he saw that he and Xier were the only ones in the room.
As Xi'er buttoned her collar, she smiled and said, "Madam knows you're ill and is so worried. If I hadn't come to see you, Madam would have gotten out of bed. Fifth sister, please think of me as someone who cares for you, but please don't chase me away."
When Ren Yaoqi heard that it was Li who asked her to come, she felt it was not appropriate to let Xier go back.
"Also, Madam Zhou asked me to tell Fifth Sister that when Concubine Fang came to pay her respects to our Madam this morning, she insisted on staying to tend to the sick, but Madam persuaded her to leave. Madam Zhou told Fifth Sister to rest assured and recover from her illness, and not to worry Madam. This is your filial piety. With her watching over Madam, nothing serious will happen."
Others wouldn't say such things, but Madam Zhou, who was beside Li, dared to do so. She was a straight-laced and strict person, and when she saw her masters doing something wrong, she would point it out without hesitation, not afraid of being resentful and scolded.
Ren Yaoqi nodded to indicate that he understood.
After a while, Qingmei and Xueli led the maids in carrying copper basins, face towels, spittoons and other items.
Xier asked the two maids Qingmei and Xueli to watch from the side, and she personally demonstrated how to help her master wash her face and brush her teeth.
Xier was trained personally by Madam Zhou, so her attentiveness and consideration were naturally far superior to those of the other two maids, Qingmei and Xueli.
After washing up, Xier personally served Ren Yaoqi breakfast.
When the medicine was brought to her, Ren Yaoqi smelled it and found that it was the same prescription she had taken before.
I don't know if it was because he was afraid that Li and others would come back and find out there was something fishy in the medicine, or because he saw that his trick of stopping her from easing the relationship with Li and Ren Yaohua didn't work, so he simply gave up.
Aunt Fang has always been a person who knows how to judge the situation and act decisively.
By the third day, Ren Yaoqi's body had almost recovered.
This means that she has to resume her daily visits to Mr. and Mrs. Ren, morning and evening.
After more than a decade, she once again had to face those so-called blood relatives. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
