The words "Second Miss is not coming" made everyone in the room dumbfounded.
The old lady thought there was something wrong with her ears, and asked again, "What did you say?"
The girl repeated it again: "The second young lady said she would not come."
"Why?" Han asked. She had originally thought that as long as Feng Yuheng came, Fen Dai's facial injury would definitely be cured, so she didn't worry too much. But now Feng Yuheng couldn't come, what about Fen Dai?
The maid glanced at Han and said with a cold face: "The second young lady said that when she just returned home, she went to feel the pulse of Aunt Han with good intentions, but Aunt Han said that she was not a doctor and did not need her to feel the pulse, so the second young lady did not come. But she was still concerned about the fourth young lady's injury, so she specially ordered someone to invite the doctor from Baicaotang, and this is the one." As she spoke, she asked the person behind her to come forward.
The man was neither humble nor overbearing when he saw the nobles. He just bowed deeply to the old lady and said, "I am a doctor from Baicao Hall. I am here on the orders of the boss to treat Miss Feng Si's injuries."
The old lady groaned. Feng Yuheng didn't give her face, which really made her angry. She wanted to send someone to get Feng Yuheng, but after thinking about it, she gave up. She just waved her hand and said, "Just let her take a look. It's better not to leave scars on a young girl." She had never succeeded in arguing with Feng Yuheng, and she didn't want to provoke him again.
But she swallowed her anger, but Fendai couldn't. Before the doctor came forward, she shouted, "Stop right there! Don't come over here! Who can touch my face?"
The old man was helpless, "I am a doctor."
"Even the doctor can't do anything about it!" Fen Dai almost collapsed. "You all bully me. I'm going to tell the Fifth Prince!" After saying this, she turned around and ran out.
The servants hurried to stop her, but the old lady said, "Don't stop her, let her go. If she wants to show her ugly appearance to His Highness the Fifth Prince, then let her go!"
After hearing what the old lady said, Fendai really stopped walking, but she couldn't stop crying.
When she started crying, Han started crying too. The two started crying one after the other. The old lady was about to get a headache, but she had to persuade Han: "Stop crying! You can't cry when you are pregnant!"
Han sobbed, "But we can't just let this go."
Nanny Zhao was at a loss. Seeing that the old lady was unwilling to say anything, she had to speak for her master: "Whether it counts or not, we have to let the doctor see the fourth young lady's injury."
The doctor walked a few steps towards Fendai and said, "I have one more question for you, young lady. Do you want to see this wound or not? If not, I will go back."
"Look!" Fendai yelled angrily, "Come here and show me."
Seeing that she had already started to treat the wound, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, she was really afraid that something might happen to Fendai's face. If the Fifth Prince investigated, it would be a big deal for her Feng Mansion.
"Shen Yu." She said in a deep voice: "No matter what, this happened in your house."
Chenyu knelt down and said in a low voice: "Chenyu understands. Please punish me, grandma."
"Well." The old lady thought for a moment, "Then I'll punish you by making you copy the sutra a hundred times as a punishment for your negligence today."
"Shenyu accepts the punishment."
"Hmph!" Han snorted fiercely to show her unwillingness.
Unfortunately, no one wanted to pay attention to her.
Soon, Fen Dai's consultation was over. The doctor wrote a prescription and took out a small box of ointment, telling Fen Dai to apply it on the affected area every day. Then he packed up the medicine box, bowed to the old lady, and was led out by the servant.
Who knew that not long after she left, the girl came running back in, looking very pale and said to the old lady, "The doctor wants ten taels for the consultation fee."
puff!
Xiangrong burst out laughing.
She said, how could her second sister be so kind as to let the doctor from Baicaotang come for a consultation for nothing.
"Ten taels?" Han was surprised again, "Did he rob money?"
The old lady slapped the bed and said angrily, "Give it to me! I'll give you as much as you want! We in the Feng Mansion cannot lose face like this. But remember this, no matter who gets sick again in the future, you are not allowed to look for Feng again... you are not allowed to look for Baicaotang again."
There was noise and bustle in Shuya Garden the whole day. Han and Fendai simply refused to leave, crying and making a fuss, making the old lady really restless. In less than two hours, her headache came back.
Meanwhile, at Tongshengxuan, Feng Yuheng was standing in front of the drugstore counter in the space.
She thought about it and thought about the issue of giving gifts in return to Xuan Tiange and the others. Huang Quan was right. You should either give them what they need most or what they lack most.
But those girls are from wealthy families, so they don’t have anything they want. How could they be lacking anything?
But having enough does not mean that what they have is the best, especially for girls. Skin care is the most important thing. There are no skin care products in this era. Even washing the face requires soap. Over time, the stratum corneum on the face will fade away. The skin is directly exposed to the air and sunlight every day. The face will age before the body gets old.
She picked up four facial cleansers, four boxes of facial masks, four bottles of day cream from the counter, and also took some toothpaste, soap and other things. She packed up a large box before she could leave the space.
She called Huang Quan to the medicine room, pointed at her big box of things and said, "Go find some small boxes, we can divide the things, and use this as a return gift."
After Huang Quan experienced the detoxification in the military camp, he was no longer surprised by the strange things that Feng Yuheng "changed". When he saw these bottles and jars, he didn't ask any questions and turned around to look for the small box.
When she came back, Feng Yuheng had divided the things into several portions. One portion for each young lady, and also prepared toothpaste and soap for the young ladies' families. Although the things were nothing to her, each of them was hard to find in the Dashun Dynasty. Feng Yuheng was very satisfied with the return gifts she prepared.
But Huang Quan still reminded her: "Miss, in addition to these gifts, you have to prepare some better ones."
She was stunned, "Better? For whom?"
"Oh my lady!" Huang Quan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's the New Year, of course we have to send gifts to the palace! The Emperor, the Empress, and Concubine Yun, you have to send gifts to them all. In addition--" She pointed to the packed boxes and said, "You have prepared return gifts, but there are still a few families that you have to take the initiative to send them to first!"
This time Feng Yuheng understood, "You are right. We have to send the things to Prince Yu's Mansion, Prince Chun's Mansion, and Prince Yuan's Mansion. It's okay. I can just prepare a few more copies of the things for the palaces. As for the ones in the palace... I have to think about it carefully."
She had to think carefully about it. Everyone had been trying their best to find the right person to send something to the palace, so she naturally couldn't be too vague.
That night, Feng Chenyu sat in the Buddhist temple copying sutras. The old lady told her to copy the sutras a hundred times, which was easy to say, but she didn't know that even if she copied the sutras day and night, it would take her several months to copy them a hundred times.
"Feng Fendai, you deserve to die!" She hated Fendai so much that she gritted her teeth. She was so angry that she wrote with greater force, and an ink spot immediately spread out on the half-copied scripture.
"Miss, calm down." Yilin quickly moved her hand away from the rice paper. "You know the temper of the fourth young lady. Why bother with her? I am saying something disrespectful. She will suffer sooner or later. There is no need for you to do anything. She can kill herself."
Chenyu glanced at Yilin and asked, "Have you dealt with that package?"
Yilin nodded, "Don't worry, Miss, it's already burned."
"It's fine if it's burned." Chen Yu was a little helpless. "I originally wanted to keep it for a while, maybe it would be useful in the future. Now it seems that with Feng Fendai in the mansion, my own house is not safe anymore."
"It's better not to keep such things." Pei Er still said...
She advised her, "I don't know what the young lady meant by it being useful in the future, but keeping that thing will always make people feel uneasy. It's so dangerous today! If it falls into the hands of the fourth young lady, everything will be over."
"I know." Chen Yu was a little impatient. "It's burned, so what? Let me ask you, what's the matter with Pei'er? Didn't she chase you?"
When Pei'er was mentioned, Yilin's face turned pale. He took two deep breaths, gritted his teeth, leaned over and talked to Chenyu in her ear for a while.
Chenyu frowned at first, then smiled and said, "Well done."
Seeing that she was not punished, Yilin finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Miss, you don't have to be too angry. In my opinion, it would be better if everyone watched you being bullied by the fourth young lady. Anyway, the master will be back soon, and he will definitely feel bad to see you like this."
"What's the use of feeling sorry for me?" Chenyu slammed the pen in her hand on the table with a "snap". "Han has a child in her belly. What can I do even if my father feels sorry for me?" The more she spoke, the sharper her eyes became. "Han's child must not be given birth to!"
Yilin knew that Chenyu would sooner or later set her sights on Han's belly, so she was in no hurry to persuade her. She just asked her, "Do you really think that Han Yi Niang can take the position of mistress?"
"Well?" Chen Yu glanced at her, "What do you mean?"
Yilin said, "The Feng family is a well-known and prosperous family. If a concubine who came from a brothel is promoted to the position of mistress, wouldn't it become a joke for the whole Dashun? Will the master still have a good reputation?"
Chen Yu nodded, "You are right. But even if she is not the mistress, having a son around is always an eyesore."
Yilin smiled and said, "It's not certain whether it's a son or not. Even if it is, he's just a bastard. But if the young lady doesn't like him, we can find a way to prevent her from giving birth."
"No hurry." Chen Yu said quietly, "Her belly hasn't shown yet, we have plenty of time to make plans. As for Shen Qing, who has been living in the mansion, I haven't seen her for quite some time."
"My cousin is so focused on the imperial examinations that he locks himself in his room all day long to study. Not to mention you, Miss, I heard that even the servants in his courtyard rarely see him."
"Humph, nerd." Chen Yu snorted, "But my father thinks highly of him. Do you think Shen Qing will really be admitted to high school?"
Yilin pondered for a while and said, "No matter what the result is, we have to make some preparations for him to pass the exam. I heard that the young master is really good at studying, otherwise he would not be so appreciated by the master. I think his chances of passing the exam are very high. Miss, think about it, if the young master really passes the exam and becomes the top scholar, his status will be different. Although he cannot be compared with the prince, he is still something that ordinary officials cannot reach."
"You're right." Chenyu suddenly remembered something: "Do you remember that my third uncle once gave my mother a pillow? He said it contained dozens of dried herbs, which were very refreshing."
Yilin nodded, "I remember, but the pillow had a medicinal smell, and the Madam didn't like it, so she kept it in the storeroom. What the Miss meant was..."
"Take it out and send it to Shen Qing. Something that can refresh his mind will probably be helpful to him. Just tell him to study hard. I will pray for him every day and hope he gets admitted to the top universities."
Just as he finished speaking, suddenly, he heard a sharp cry from outside -
