On the way, Ningxue asked Xia Tian, "Madam, when did you hide the snacks?"
"I hid it yesterday, thinking I could fill my stomach if something delayed me this morning. Who would have thought I'd use it so soon?"
"Madam, do you think the old lady will punish you again tomorrow?" Ningxue was a little worried. The farce yesterday obviously made the old lady unhappy.
The old lady had no say in the Marquis, so she took her anger out on the Crown Prince's wife.
The main thing is that if the old lady wants to punish someone harshly, no one's words will work. She knows the women in this mansion too well. As long as she wants to make trouble for someone, she will find any excuse.
Besides, the old lady is of a higher generation. Even a prince would not dare to accept the accusation of disrespecting the elders.
Ningxue helped Xia Tian back to Jinglan Garden with a worried look on her face.
Ningxiang had long known that their lady had been punished by the old lady to kneel, and she had already prepared hot water and blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment.
As soon as Xia Tian came home, he asked Cuiyun to bring up lunch and put it on the kang table in the warm room.
I guess the Crown Prince’s wife didn’t have breakfast, so she must be starving now.
Several maids helped Xia Tian sit on the kang in the warm room, handed her chopsticks and dishes, and asked her to eat first.
Ningxue was also sent away by her to eat first.
Ningxiang lifted her summer pants and looked at her red, swollen, and blue knees. She felt a little distressed and quickly applied a hot towel to them. "Madam, I'll give you a hot compress first. After you finish your meal, I'll apply medicine to rub the blood clots. You have to rub them vigorously to heal quickly."
"Okay." Xia Tian nodded while eating.
It’s so nice to have someone to serve you!
After she had eaten her fill, Ningxiang asked Cuiyun and Cuiling to help Xia Tian sit on a chair. She squatted in front of Xia Tian and said, "Madam, it will hurt a little. Please bear with it."
"Okay, you rub it." Xia Tian grabbed the armrests of the chair with both hands, signaling Ningxiang that she could start.
Ningxiang first applied ointment on the palms of her hands, then rubbed her hands vigorously to warm them up, and then covered her hands on Xia Tian's knees and rubbed them vigorously.
Xia Tian was almost in pain after being touched by Ningxiang. Although she had Lingquan, she could not let Ningxiang down, so she gritted her teeth and let Ningxiang finish rubbing her.
Ningxiang saw that the blood clots had been rubbed away, then applied a thick layer of ointment on her knee and wrapped it with a clean cloth before finishing.
In the summer, I took a nap on the kang in the warm room.
After waking up, I continued copying scriptures.
The scripture was arranged by Marquis Wu'an, so we can't offend him again, otherwise even Shen Nian might not be able to protect her.
In the evening, when Shen Nian came back from her shift, she heard Muchen say that the old lady had punished Xia Tian to kneel for the whole morning. Her eyes turned cold. She didn't expect that this good grandmother of hers actually valued Liu and her children so much.
That's great. I hope she can still defend these people after she knows what they did.
Chen Nian entered Jinglan Garden and saw Xia Tian still busy copying scriptures. It was already dark, and writing like this was not good for the eyes, so he took the paper away from her and asked her to stop copying.
"Brother Shen, why are you here? You must be tired after being on duty for a whole day. Go to rest early!" Xia Tian put away the paper and pen and said to Shen Nian with a smile.
"I'm not tired. Grandma is punishing you... Can I see if the injury is serious?"
"It's not serious. It will be much better now. Ningxiang rubbed me for a while and applied medicine. I'll be fine now."
"I'm going to find my grandmother." Shen Nian said as he was about to get up.
Xia Tian grabbed him and said, "Don't go, Brother Shen. Just punish the old lady. The old lady was humiliated by the Marquis yesterday, and she needs to vent her anger.
If I don't get this out of me, I'm afraid he'll cause me more trouble later, which would be even more annoying, wouldn't it?"
Shen Nian was silent, his grandmother could definitely do it!
The most important thing was that he was worried that if he went to tell her, it would not only not help, but would make his grandmother hate Xia Tian even more and punish her even more severely.
His grandmother's generation is here, he has no choice but to listen.
Shen Nian sat for a while with a sullen face, but was persuaded by Xia Tian to go and rest first.
After Chen Nian left, Xia Tian took out a pen and paper and copied some scriptures for a while before washing up and getting ready for bed.
I entered the space, drank a few sips of spiritual spring water, stayed in the space for a while, and my knees didn't hurt anymore, so I left the space and went to sleep.
The next day, Xia Tian learned his lesson and finished his breakfast early. He also hid two snacks in his sleeve pocket, then took out two small cushions and tied them on his knees before getting up to pay his respects to the old lady in her yard.
This little cushion was made for her by Ningxiang yesterday!
As expected, the old lady didn't say anything and just asked her to kneel at the gate of the yard.
Xia Tian didn't say a word and knelt obediently at the gate of the yard.
As the Third Madam passed by, she sarcastically said, "Aren't you capable? You even dared to hit someone. If you have the guts, why don't you just kneel here?"
Xia Tian glanced at her and said, "Third Aunt is also very impressive. If you are envious, you can also ask Grandmother to arrange for you to kneel here."
The Third Madam was about to continue speaking when the Second Madam stopped her, "You are an elder, why are you arguing with a junior like her? Go away and don't hang around here."
"Humph, I just think that wild girl is not good at showing off!"
"Just talk less!" The second wife frowned. This Ye, no matter how many times she had been told, just wouldn't change. She insisted on being competitive and was always left speechless by the retort. She still didn't know how to restrain herself.
If it weren't for her sister-in-law's sake, she wouldn't want to pay attention to her.
The third wife was pulled away by the second wife, and the others also dispersed.
Xia Tian continued to kneel and move for a while, and Mu Jin couldn't control her.
In this way, a morning passed.
After waking up in the afternoon, I continued copying scriptures.
Chen Nian came back and sat here with Xia Tian for a while, then left with a bad look on his face.
