Chapter 365 I heard you were sick
Hearing Cheng's words, Duke Dingguo frowned, "It's embarrassing, but did I ever say I didn't recognize the child?"
Since he is the blood of the Duke's Mansion, would he not recognize him?
Cheng couldn't bear to look at her husband. Yesterday she had been complaining that her son had brought shame to her, but now she was in a hurry to see her granddaughter and looked like she was eager to bring her back.
"I'm telling you, that child is now also known as Princess Yongning. Keep your mouth shut and don't show off in front of others, or you'll get into trouble later."
Duke Dingguo waved his hand, "Am I that stupid?"
Cheng didn't say anything, but she knew her husband's temper in her heart. If she didn't remind him, he would get carried away when he saw his granddaughter.
After all, he is a warrior, so he is a bit stupid.
Duke Dingguo couldn't help but ask, "How's the child? Is he crying?"
"How big is it now?"
"Have you delivered the gold locket you had prepared yesterday? Do you want a pair of gold bracelets prepared for you to bring tomorrow?"
"Is the nanny who takes care of our granddaughter reliable? Should we find a new one..."
"Or you can stay at Yu Mansion for a few days and take care of me."
Cheng couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "If you want to go, go by yourself."
I just said in front of Mrs. Yu today that I don't like my granddaughter, and now I'm going to move there tomorrow. Isn't that a slap in my face?
She is the wife of a duke and has an imperial decree, but she still has to maintain her dignity.
Duke Dingguo snorted twice, "I'll go if I want to!"
...
The next day, when Duke Dingguo and his wife went to visit the Yu Mansion, Yu Qinghuan was out.
When they learned that Yu Qinghuan was not at home, the couple felt more at ease. They came to the house and said they wanted to see their little granddaughter. They held her tightly and would not let go, making little Zhaozhao giggle.
At this time, Yu Qinghuan was quietly led to the yard from the back door of the general's mansion.
"My general has been ill since the day he came out of the palace. He has been bedridden for five days and calls for you even when he is asleep at night." The subordinates beside Du Yunxiao sighed.
Yu Qinghuan frowned, "Didn't you call the imperial physician?"
The subordinate sighed again, "The general was afraid of His Majesty's punishment, so he only asked the palace doctor to examine him."
As he spoke, he secretly observed Madam Yu's expression. In fact, the general was just pretending. He had only been hungry for a day and stood for a day and a night. These were nothing compared to the injuries he had suffered at the border that year. How could he possibly fall ill?
But now that His Majesty is making things difficult for you, the general will naturally appear less often in the palace to avoid His Majesty being displeased and being punished by being made to stand for a few days.
But what I didn’t expect was that when Madam Yu heard about the general’s “illness”, she actually came running over to show her concern!
This is good news.
Yu Qinghuan stopped and turned to look at Sang Ru, "Go back to the mansion and invite Doctor Chen over quietly, don't let anyone know."
Sang Ru was surprised and nodded blankly, but in her heart she lamented that her daughter was so brave.
The emperor specially transferred Doctor Chen from the Imperial Hospital to the Yu Mansion to treat the young lady. The young lady actually asked him to treat General Du.
If someone in the palace knew about this, wouldn't he be so angry that he would vomit blood?
When the subordinates heard this, they hurriedly stopped him, fearing that their general's feigned illness would be exposed. "No need to call the imperial physician!"
Yu Qinghuan: “?”
Sang Ru, who was standing by, felt that General Du's subordinates' reaction was too much.
Two pairs of eyes turned to him, and the subordinate sneered, "After all, Doctor Chen is His Majesty's man..."
Yu Qinghuan thought about it and thought, "Then let's go find a more reliable doctor."
The subordinate breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "I just sent someone to invite him. He will be here later."
As he said this, he continued to lead the way.
After a while, he brought the person to the yard where his general lived.
Although the general's mansion is large, it is very desolate because Du Yunxiao is the only one living there. There are not many furnishings. At a glance, it is overgrown with weeds and no one takes care of it. It looks completely different from the Cheng Mansion.
Sang Ru sighed in her heart, this was very different from the impression she had of the Du Mansion back then.
She still remembered that when she was little, General Du often picked flowers from the Du Mansion and gave them to the girl. He was such a refined man, but after going to the border for a few years, he became the big and strong man he is now.
Yu Qinghuan didn't think too much about it. After all, there were many wars on the border, and it was not easy for Du Yunxiao to survive. It didn't really matter what the place he lived in looked like.
As soon as she entered the yard, the subordinate came forward and knocked on the door, "General, Madam Yu is here."
Du Yunxiao in the room was reading a notebook of love stories that he had asked someone to buy from the market two days ago, thinking of learning something from it. Just as he was reading the interesting part, he heard his subordinates knocking on the door outside, saying that Yu Qinghuan was here.
He stood up suddenly and excitedly went to open the door. This was the first time Huanhuan came to the general's mansion since he returned to Beijing for so long!
But he had just taken two steps when he fell back, hid the notebook he had just read under his pillow, and walked to the basin on the shelf beside him. He looked at himself in the reflection, and his beard, which had not been trimmed for several days, looked a little haggard.
He hesitated for a moment, then loosened the collar of his pajamas a little, and even the belt that was originally tied tightly became loose. If he moved a little more, the whole scene would be revealed.
After finishing these things, Du Yunxiao limped to open the door, his face haggard and his voice hoarse, "Who's here?"
As soon as the door opened, the subordinate stepped aside and said, "General, it's Madam Yu who's here."
As the words fell, Yu Qinghuan stepped forward.
The moment Du Yunxiao saw Yu Qinghuan, his heart started beating fast. He knew that Huanhuan cared about him.
He suppressed the excitement in his heart, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said with a wry smile, "Why are you here?"
Yu Qinghuan said slowly, "I heard you were sick, so I came to see you."
As she spoke, she looked at Du Yunxiao. It looked like his beard hadn't been trimmed for several days, but the key point was...
Du Yunxiao's slightly open collar couldn't hide his muscular muscles, which made people blush and their hearts beat faster.
Yu Qinghuan felt a little hot in her ears. How come this person didn't even bother to put on his clothes before opening the door?
Sang Ru, who was standing by, saw her daughter's gaze move from General Du's face to his body. She lightly supported her forehead and seriously suspected that General Du did it on purpose, knowing that her daughter liked to look at him and seducing him in both open and covert ways.
Seeing Yu Qinghuan's clearly fixed gaze, Du Yunxiao suppressed the corners of his mouth that were trying to rise, and said bitterly, "Come in and tell me."
As he said this, he turned around and limped into the house, coughing from time to time.
When Du Yunxiao turned around, Yu Qinghuan could not see anything and was a little disappointed for a moment.
Seeing the man limping, she realized that it was because of her fault. She quickly stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Du Yunxiao's arm, trying to help him.
Who knew that the moment she embraced him, she could feel his strong arms through the fabric, and even a hint of warmth. Yu Qinghuan's face flushed, and she couldn't help but imagine all sorts of things in her mind...
The arm looked so strong that it could carry her.
