Everyone was frightened by the concubine's appearance. The concubine had never punished anyone on her own initiative before, and she always spoke in a soft voice. No one expected that she would be so scary when she got angry.
"Yes, I accept the punishment and will never do it again." Everyone bowed their heads.
When the two wet nurses heard that they were only to be beaten with twenty boards and fined half a year's salary, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
But I haven't caught my breath yet.
Then the concubine looked at them and said, "As the wet nurses of the Second Princess, you two should have been more diligent in your duties, but it was because of your negligence that the Second Princess fell into the water."
"This concubine dares not keep you with the Second Princess any longer. You will be beaten with fifty sticks, fined a year's salary, and sent to the farm."
"No, Concubine, please spare us, we won't dare to do it again, please spare us."
The two wet nurses immediately begged for mercy.
If he doesn't die from fifty lashes, he will be crippled at least. Moreover, if he goes to the farm, he will do the hardest and most tiring work in the future, which is no match for the decent and easy job he has now.
Wen Mianmian didn't say anything else, but walked back and sat next to the Fourth Master.
She sympathized with them, but who would sympathize with her daughter?
It seems that she is too easy to talk to on weekdays, which makes these people think it’s okay to be lazy.
It seems that her Zizhuyuan needs to be reorganized. After all, there are too many people here, and she needs to make sure they all have clear positions.
She would never allow such a thing to happen again.
The two wet nurses cried and begged for mercy. Seeing this, Su Peisheng quickly ordered someone to drag them away.
The others were all taken away as well.
Those who are to be beaten will be beaten, and those who are to be sent to the village will be sent to the village.
After everyone had left, the Fourth Master took Mianmian's hand.
Wen Mianmian leaned tiredly in the arms of the Fourth Master, and the Fourth Master took her shoulders.
"Don't be afraid. I'll send a few more people to stay with the little guys and have them fence off the lotus pond. This kind of thing will never happen again."
He originally wanted to level the lotus pond, but the lotus pond was very large.
If we really want to fill it up, not to mention the manpower and material resources, if the news gets out, I'm afraid there will be rumors that are not good for Mianmian.
If this gets to the Emperor, who knows what will happen.
After some thought, he decided to fence off the lotus pond, and make it higher. There were several children in the mansion, and he didn't want this kind of thing to happen again.
"good."
Wen Mianmian hummed softly.
The lotus pond was indeed unsafe. Now that the children had grown up and could run and jump, the lotus pond was very close to Zizhuyuan, so she was really worried about the safety of the children.
She would have to talk to them more about safety awareness in the future, otherwise if something like this happened again, she was afraid her heart wouldn't be able to take it.
But what she feared more was that this incident was not an accident but man-made.
Because that place is quite remote, there is no way Tiantian could go there alone.
No matter what, if this incident was really man-made, she would never let that person go.
A fierce look flashed in Wen Mianmian's eyes. You can harm her, but you can't harm her child.
As for Song Gege, she just took a shower and drank ginger soup and was planning to take a nap.
Then I heard Muxiang say that the court doctor was coming.
Song was surprised for a moment, then asked someone to bring in the court doctor.
"Why is the court doctor here?"
The court physician bowed slightly to Song and said, "It was Concubine Wen who asked me to come and take Lady Song's pulse."
"Concubine~"
Song didn't expect it to be her.
"Then the court doctor should quickly check our princess's pulse to see if she is okay." Muxiang was still very worried about her own princess.
The court doctor nodded, walked over and took the patient's pulse. The pulse was normal, just a little cold. He prescribed some medicine and told him to rest more, and he would be fine.
"I'll prescribe some medicine for you later. Princess Song will take a few doses and rest for a few days and she'll be fine."
After saying that, he packed up his things and prepared to leave.
Song Gege asked, "House Doctor, how is Second Gege? Is she okay?"
"Don't worry, Song Gege. Second Gege is blessed with good fortune. She just had a slight shock and caught a cold. As long as she doesn't have a fever tonight, she will be fine after a few days of rest."
These things were not forbidden to be said, so the court doctor told them.
"I'm glad you're okay."
After the court doctor left, Dingxiang followed him to get medicine.
Muxiang stayed beside Song.
"Princess, you should get some sleep too. The court doctor just told you to get more rest. I'll call you back when the medicine is ready."
"Hmm~"
Song lay down on the bed and closed her eyes to rest.
——
Tiantian didn't have a fever at night, and Wen Mianmian and the Fourth Master couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps the spiritual fruit worked.
Tiantian was not awakened by nightmares all night, nor did she have a fever, and she slept well until the next day.
The Fourth Master was very quick and people started installing a fence around the lotus pond early the next morning.
The Fourth Master stayed here with Tiantian and Mianmian all night and didn't leave until morning.
After the Fourth Master left, Nanny Song walked in and saw the Concubine leaning on the Second Lady's bed with one hand, looking a little sleepy. She felt a little distressed looking at her.
Yesterday, someone came to the sewing room and asked her to go over and take a look at the new patterns. They told her to pick out some nice ones and send them over for the concubine to choose from.
She thought there was nothing wrong, so she followed him. But when she came back, she heard about the Second Princess's incident. If she had known this would happen, she would not have gone in the first place.
Nanny Song came over and whispered, "Master, you've been with the Second Princess all night, why don't you go back to your room and rest for a while."
"This old slave will watch over here."
Wen Mianmian half-closed her eyes, and slowly opened them when she heard the nanny's voice. She glanced at Tiantian and saw that she was still sleeping soundly.
He tucked the quilt in for Tiantian and said, "It's okay. I feel at ease seeing her here with my own eyes."
"Go check if the porridge is ready. Feed it to Tiantian when she wakes up."
Tiantian didn’t wake up after falling asleep yesterday and didn’t eat dinner. She will definitely be hungry when she wakes up.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Nanny Song knew that she couldn't persuade her master, so she left and went to see if the porridge in the kitchen was ready.
Not long after Nanny Song left, Tiantian, who was sleeping in the bed, opened her eyes.
Wen Mianmian saw it with joy in her eyes, "Tiantian, you're awake. How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Tiantian saw her mother, and then she didn't know what she thought of. A hint of fear flashed in her eyes. She quickly threw herself into Wen Mianmian's arms and started crying.
"Wuwuwu...Mother, I'm scared..."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is here, everything will be fine."
When Wen Mianmian saw her like this, she knew that she was scared by the incident of falling into the water yesterday, and she quickly patted her back to comfort her.
Wen Mianmian comforted her for a long time. After Tiantian calmed down, Wen Mianmian wanted to ask him about what happened yesterday.
