Chapter 61 There are ways to serve others
He squeezed her hand and then said, "Why is it so cold?"
Then he looked at Li Bai: "How do you serve me?"
Li Bai hurriedly bowed, and Li Ruanruan said, "I don't feel cold."
The prince sent several new sets of clothes to her room. Li Runrun was wearing the latest styles, which were comfortable and warm. She really didn't feel cold at all.
There is also a charcoal brazier in the house, and life is much better now than before.
However, the prince's hand was still very warm, and Li Runrun couldn't help but hold his hand back.
Li Ruanruan lowered her eyes and said to the prince, "My body is like this. In winter, my hands and feet are cold."
Ye Yunchu hummed calmly and said, "Tell Haitang to ask the court doctor to treat you tomorrow."
Li Runrun blushed and was about to tell the prince that she was not that spoiled, but she didn't dare to say anything.
After all, the prince did this for me, so I felt warm in my heart.
Ye Yunchu took Li Ruanruan into the house. It was much warmer here than in the ear room. After all, the servants took good care of him. There was also floor heating in winter, so the house was very warm even when it snowed heavily outside.
Li Runrun thought that since her ear room was next to the prince's, she could get some warmth when it was too cold and it would be warmer than other places.
When they got into the house, Li Runrun stopped, looking a little shy and embarrassed.
Ye Yunchu sat on the couch and looked at Li Ruanruan. "Do you want anything from me?"
He changed into a comfortable position. Haitang served him tea and left. Then he said, "That depends on your performance. Come here."
Li Runrun blushed, walked towards the prince, and held the handkerchief embroidered as a gift in front of Ye Yunchu: "This is for the prince."
Ye Yunchu reached out and took it, shook out the small cube and took a look, with admiration flashing in his eyes.
Then he deliberately said, "Isn't this Suzhou embroidery? You have the money to buy it."
Li Ruanruan was afraid that he would think that she had money but didn't give it to him, so she immediately defended herself, "This, this is embroidered by me. It's not good, please don't despise it, my lord."
Ye Yunchu took the handkerchief in his hand and looked at it. If it was not embroidered well, there would be no one who could embroider it well.
The little concubine's excellent embroidery skills made him feel like he had found a treasure.
Ye Yunchu put the handkerchief into his arms and said, "It seems you miss me a lot."
Li Ruanruan looked at Ye Yunchu, and then said: "Thank you, Prince, for saving me."
Ye Yunchu acted as if he hadn't heard her. He grabbed Li Ruanruan's hand and pulled her into his arms, hugging her: "I've been too busy lately and neglected you, so you can only embroider this handkerchief for me to relieve your longing for me."
He grabbed her hand and squeezed it: "The thought and care that went into making this stitch is truly precious. I'm sorry for that."
Li Runrun didn't know how the prince understood it this way, and then she remembered that giving a handkerchief meant expressing love and admiration.
But that's really not what she meant, otherwise why didn't she embroider a bellyband for the prince.
She, she really was just grateful.
But since the prince had misunderstood her, she intuitively felt that if she defended herself, she would make him angry, so her face turned slightly red.
Ye Yunchu held Li Ruanruan in his arms, rubbed her, and then said, "You have such a poor heart, Ruanruan. I didn't know that you thought about me day and night. I will love you well tonight."
Li Runrun was half-hearted. If being a concubine was a job, then this was her responsibility.
And the prince would not make her uncomfortable.
But it was not dark outside yet, and Li Runrun was blushing. Fortunately, it was dark later.
I don't know how long it took, but a slender hand stretched out from the tent and shouted, "Bring water."
Haitang, the waiter, lowered her head and brought hot water over: "My Lord, please serve me."
Ye Yunchu leaned against the bed, his expression relaxed and satisfied: "Go down, the maid will serve you."
"yes."
Haitang left and closed the door gently.
Shaoyao outside the door gritted her teeth, her expression twisted. What on earth was so special about Li Ruanruan that could make the prince love her again and again? It was just that she breathed a little. What a vixen, bah, so cheap.
Then, looking at Li Bai who was waiting on the side, Shaoyao said in a domineering tone: "We don't need so many people to wait on us here. Please stand away and guard the corridor."
It's a cold winter night now, and the corridor is a windy place. Peony is deliberately making things difficult for Libai.
Haitang frowned: "Since you don't need so many people to wait on you, just go back."
"That's okay too."
Shaoyao pinched Libai harshly as she left, scolding him, "Be more alert and careful when keeping watch. I'm teaching you to learn well. You're just a second-class maid, and you've never served anyone before. Don't neglect the prince."
Then he left without looking at anyone.
Haitang sighed as she watched her leave, then looked at Li Bai, who was covering her arm, and said, "She won't have many days left, so don't bother with her."
Li Bai was afraid that the quarrel would disturb the prince and his concubine, otherwise she would not have forgiven Shaoyao so easily. They were all maids serving the prince, so why did Shaoyao act like the master?
Li Ruanruan lay down for a while before getting up and putting on some clothes. She sat on the edge of the bed, scooped hot water from the wooden barrel, added cold water and put it into the basin.
I adjusted the water temperature to avoid scalding the prince while wiping him, but I was also afraid that the water would be too cold and cool him down.
There are tricks to serving people, and Li Runrun is slowly figuring it out.
After wrung out the towel and let it hang dry for a while, she turned around and went to wipe the prince with a blushing face.
Ye Yunchu lowered his eyes to look at the little maid's movements. It seemed like she hadn't eaten. Her movements were too light, like a cat's claws scratching someone.
It feels prickly, numb and itchy.
He grabbed Li Runrun's hand, and Li Runrun looked up at him.
She understood what he meant and her hand trembled as she gripped the towel tighter.
Finally, the water cooled down and hot water was brought in again. This time, Li Bai and Haitang were brought in together.
The little maid couldn't get up, but Ye Yunchu didn't ask anyone else to serve her. He asked Haitang Libai to go out and wash the clothes herself.
After washing, I gave it to the little maid to wash.
I just fell asleep. I don’t know what time it was, but I had a dreamless night.
Ye Yunchu got up very early. He was used to practicing martial arts in the morning, so he got up before dawn.
Haitang came in to dress him, and as usual did not wake up Li Runrun.
Li Runrun slept soundly and woke up at dawn. She was still a little dazed when she sat up.
Li Bai then came in and helped her get dressed and washed, and after breakfast she went to look after her father and brother.
Li Runrun was planning to find a good job for her father and brother, but she was also regretting that she should have mentioned this to the prince yesterday. She felt that he was in a good mood and in a good mood yesterday.
But I did think about arranging for Dad to work in the kitchen so that he could eat better.
Li Ruanruan didn't know where to assign Li Mutou, so she asked him, "Mutou, where do you want to work after you recover from your injury?"
Li Mutou immediately said, "Sister, I just like the stables. I like raising horses."
"But that steward has repeatedly harmed you."
Li Mutou grabbed Li Ruanruan's hand and said, "Sister, then you can ask the prince to sell the stable manager and replace him with Uncle Li or Old Wang. It doesn't matter who manages the stables. They all have a good relationship with me except the manager."
