Although Mr. Zou did not care, the other adults were not pushovers.
The servants of Changfeng Garden were concerned about the health of Princess Guihe, so they did not tell her about this matter, but only reported it to Xue Qin.
That evening, Zheng Ren, Xue Zhi, and Xue Qin gathered in Haoye Hall.
Zheng Yu, Xue Shao, and Xue Mian did not leave after following Zheng Xiu back. Thinking that they would be punished soon, they were also in ups and downs.
Zheng Xiu asked Minghui to serve tea and told them not to rush to hurt the children.
"You see, they also know that they are wrong, and they have also compensated Mr. Zou and apologized..."
Zheng Ren said: "That is because Mr. Zou is broad-minded, and it cannot offset the mistakes they made." Xue Zhi and Xue Qin also nodded.
Zheng Xiu simply stopped trying to persuade them, as the three children had to have a meal of bamboo shoots fried with meat.
She stopped trying to persuade them, and since it was not convenient for Zheng Ren and Xue Qin to teach Zheng Yu and Xue Shao outside, they took them home.
Before leaving, Xue Mian turned his head and said to Xue Shao and Zheng Yu, "Let's meet in the front yard tomorrow!"
Xue Qin raised his hand and gave him a slap in the face, "You are the one who talks too much, let's talk when you can get out of bed tomorrow!"
Zheng Yu knew what he would face after returning home, so he was not so lively anymore, and said goodbye to Zheng Xiu and the others with a frown on his face.
After they all left, Xue Zhi said, "Ah Xiu, go and see if the dinner is ready."
Their dinner was always prepared in the main kitchen, and Bai Zhu would bring it over. So to say, Zheng Xiu was sent
away. Zheng Xiu looked at Xue Shao helplessly, responded and went out.
The next day, as Xue Qin said, none of the three could get out of bed.
The three parents had not agreed to spank the children, but the children's bodies were tender, and only the buttocks were thick, so they could be spanked in a painful way so that they would remember without causing any harm to their bodies.
Xue Shao had dinner lying on the bed the day before.
Zheng Xiu was worried about the other two, so she went to Changfeng Garden to see Xue Mian the next day. However, she knew that Princess Guihe was kept in the dark, so she couldn't go directly to see him, but went to see Princess Guihe first.
Princess Guihe has recovered very well these days. On the one hand, it is of course due to the imperial physician's miraculous healing, and on the other hand, it is due to Qiurui's massage and her own exercise. At present, she can walk very steadily with crutches, and her speech is not so unclear.
After Qiurui passed the message, she was in a good mood. Princess Guihe, who was admiring the flowers by the window, said, "Let her in."
Qiurui curled her lips and left.
Zheng Xiu entered the inner room like this.
Princess Guihe, leaning on crutches, slowly turned around.
Zheng Xiu had not come to Changfeng Garden since Mr. Zou came. Seeing her recover, she smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days. You have recovered so well. I am so happy for you."
Princess Guihe snorted, "What is there to be happy about? You still can't leave this cane." She spoke slowly, but she was no longer stuttering or slurring her words, and people had to guess and guess what she was saying to understand.
"It's only been a few days. You will definitely be well again in a while."
Princess Guihe curled her lips and said nothing.
The two were silent for a moment, and Princess Guihe continued to speak: "Have you been busy these days?"
Zheng Xiu didn't understand why she asked this, and only said: "You know, I am the most idle person in this mansion, and I don't have anything to do."
"Oh, then why don't you come?"
Zheng Xiu was stunned. Didn't Princess Guihe dislike seeing her? Why did she ask this?
"I thought you and Mr. Zou had a lot to talk about after a long separation, so I didn't come to bother you."
"Now you are being nice." Princess Guihe said coldly, "Why didn't you say anything when you came here every day to bother me before?"
If it was the old Princess Guihe who said this, although Zheng Xiu would not make a big fuss with her, it would definitely be uncomfortable to hear, and she would naturally keep her distance. But when it was the Princess Guihe who had suffered a stroke, Zheng Xiu didn't think it was a big deal. Patients always have some little emotions.
She smiled indifferently, "If you are not used to it, I will come here every day in the future."
Princess Guihe snorted again, but didn't tell her not to come.
Princess Guihe stood in front of the bed. Zheng Xiu couldn't sit down either, so she stood with her for a while, and then asked about Xue Mian.
Princess Guihe said, "Aqin said that Brother Mian caught a cold the day before and is resting in the room. You can go and see him." If she wasn't still sick, she would have gone to see him in person. Zheng Xiu is good at taking care of children. With her watching, she felt relieved.
Zheng Xiu went to the room to visit Xue Mian.
Xue Mian was lying on the bed. He was in good spirits and didn't have a childish temper. He was holding his chin and flipping through a picture book of "Seven Heroes and Five Gallants".
When Zheng Xiu entered the room, Xue Mian closed the sketchbook and said with a smile: "Aunt, you are here?"
Zheng Xiu said helplessly: "You still have the nerve to laugh, I saw you really pissed off your elder brother yesterday."
Xue Mian pouted, "He beat me pretty hard, my butt is all broken."
Zheng Xiu was about to lift the quilt to see, "Let me see how badly you've been beaten."
Xue Mian quickly tucked the quilt tightly, his face flushed, "Aunt, don't look at it, at least you know I was beaten badly."
It's not even that embarrassing to do that. Zheng Xiu smiled and asked him: "Did you apply the medicine?"
Xue Mian nodded, "Yes. My elder brother came to change the medicine for me personally."
Without a father above him, Xue Qin really loves his younger brother to the core.
"Aunt, how are A'shao and A'yu?"
Zheng Xiu said with a wry smile, "A'shao can't get out of bed just like you. I don't know about A'yu, but based on my father's temper, I guess his fate won't be much better than yours."
Xue Mian patted his chest, "That's good. We agreed to meet in the front yard today. Since no one can get out of bed, I won't be considered breaking the promise."
Zheng Xiu gently poked her forehead with her finger, "Look, you, what a stupid idea you came up with."
Xue Mian chuckled, "The idea is a bit stupid, but it works."
Zheng Xiu sighed helplessly.
"By the way, auntie, my mother doesn't know, right? She's not feeling well, and it's her birthday soon. I don't want her to be angry."
"Everyone is keeping it a secret for you." Zheng Xiu said, and then asked, "It's the princess' birthday soon? When is it?"
"April 15th."
"That's less than half a month away." Zheng Xiu frowned. Why didn't Xue Zhi mention it before? In such a hurry, she didn't know what to prepare.
Xue Mian said, "Don't worry, auntie. In previous years, mother's birthday was always organized by people from the palace. It should be here in two days."
Zheng Xiu nodded, talked to Xue Mian for a while, and then returned to Haoye Hall.
Xue Zhi came back from outside in the evening.
Zheng Xiu sat on the kang and didn't stand up to greet him. Xue Zhi didn't care. He just smiled and went over to sit next to her, "Who made our Ah Xiu unhappy today?"
Zheng Xiu then complained a little, "Mian'er said that the princess's birthday is in half a month. Why didn't you tell me in advance? I was in such a hurry that I didn't know to prepare anything."
Xue Zhi also said, "I was so busy these two days that I forgot to tell you. But you don't have to prepare anything. The current emperor treats the princess very well. In previous years, the palace prepared everything and then sent people to the mansion to take care of it. You don't have to prepare anything." Then he smiled and said, "You just need to think about what to wear and show up beautifully at the birthday banquet."
Princess Guihe's birthday was naturally going to be a grand celebration. Although she was ill this year, she has recovered well, and the emperor will still give her this honor. It would have been better
if he didn't say it. Once he said it, Zheng Xiu really got nervous -
