”Mn, you go look for your mother first. After I take a bath, I'll change my clothes and go look for Yuanxi, then I'll go look for my mother in Main Yard.”
Previously, Dong Shu did not think that when Xu Shiqiu said this, she wanted to take a bath immediately.
Thinking about the sweat on the big men, Dong Shu felt uncomfortable all over.
After Xu Shiqiu left, Ling Xiang immediately brought people to bring hot water in. Seeing Ling Xiang, Dong Shu suddenly thought of Zhang Ershan and Mama Yan.
”I can call for Huo Xiang and Li Xiang to attend to you. Go back and see your father, tell your mother to stay at home and wait upon your father. If she lacks anything, just go to the warehouse and get them.”
When Dong Shu just finished speaking, Ling Xiang, who had her head lowered, looked up happily and said to Dong Shu: ”Thank you Madam.” Finished speaking, Ling Xiang paused for a moment before continuing, ”There is Mother and Little Brother at home. It is better for servant to stay here and serve Madam. Huo Xiang was staring at the kitchen as she prepared food, while Li Xiang was helping Mama Yan wash up and apply the medicine. ”
Hearing Ling Xiang's words, then looking at her red eyes, Dong Shu understood the meaning of their family.
”Forget it, now that the Mama Yan has been shocked, and your mother wants to take care of your father, you can stay by my side and wait upon me.” After saying these words, Dong Shu thought for a moment before continuing, ”However, even though you don't want to return to look after your father, you must still pass on the words that I just said. As for the Mama Yan, remember to tell Lixiang to take care of her a little. ”
”Yes, servant will pass on the message later.”
Although Ling Xiang's eyes were still red, she was in an extremely good mood.
Today, her father protected her wholeheartedly. Although she was injured and had to recuperate for a period of time, she had won the satisfaction of her master and the envy of the other servants.
As she thought about these things, Ling Xiang also quietly helped Dong Shu wipe her back.
When she saw the swelling on Dong Shu's waist, Ling Xiang immediately exclaimed: ”Madam, I'm afraid this place will turn purple tomorrow.”
”It's fine, go to Doctor Du and get me some medicine to rub. I'll be staying at home for the next few days, I believe I'll be fine soon.”
Dong Shu really didn't feel that this was anything special, thinking back to when she was young, when she was doing housework at her big uncle's home, because she was not proficient in housework, she would often bump into or run into this guy.
There would be no medicine for her to use, and her body would be bruised, so she would have to apply it herself with a warm cloth and wait for it to disperse.
However, she wasn't lacking in healing ointments right now.
After Dong Shu finished bathing and waited for her hair to dry, Ling Xiang also quickly took out the ointment.
After Dong Shu finished cleaning up, it was already an hour later.
Yuanxi had not seen Dong Shu for almost an entire day, so when she had not seen her at first, she could still play with her wet nurse. However, when she saw Dong Shu, she pouted, feeling wronged, and saw that Dong Shu was about to cry.
Dong Shu could not bear to see Yuanxi show such an expression, so she quickly reached out and pulled Yuanxi into her embrace.
”Good girl Yuanxi, Mother will be sending you off today. Mother will be home to accompany you tomorrow, okay?” As she spoke, Dong Shu didn't forget to kiss Yuanxi's forehead.
Yuanxi didn't know whether or not she could understand what Dong Shu was saying. In any case, she was leaning on her mother's embrace with a face full of attachment.
Yuanxi was unwilling to leave Dong Shu's embrace, so she could only carry her all the way to the Main Yard.
When Xu Shiqiu saw Yuanxi in Dong Shu's embrace, he immediately frowned and wanted to speak, but after seeing Yuanxi's expression, he could only sigh.
”Yuanxi has come to Father to carry you. Right now, you are growing bigger and bigger, so it is very hard for Mother to carry you.” As Xu Shiqiu said this, he immediately walked to Dong Shu's front with large strides. Before Yuanxi could react, he had already pulled her into his embrace.
Yuanxi was at a loss when she was carried by Xu Shiqiu, but when she realized that she had left her mother, he immediately became unwilling to get up.
Seeing that Yuanxi was about to cry, Dong Shu could only step forward quickly, reached out, and pulled Yuanxi's small hand, coaxing him: ”Good girl Yuanxi, let Father carry you, Mother will hold Yuanxi, okay?”
With Dong Shu's consoling, Yuanxi finally stopped crying immediately, not giving her father any face.
