Slowly Deep Love

Yue Weiwei sat obediently in the pavilion while Nanny Li peeled fruit for her.

"Miss, don't blame me for controlling you. You are lively and active now, and because of amnesia, you have forgotten your etiquette, so you must not act recklessly." Nanny Li peeled the grapes and placed them on the small plate in front of Yue Weiwei.

Yue Weiwei took a deep breath and thought: Doesn't Minglu have hands? She needs you to peel her skin! She can't travel back because her life with you guys is too frustrating!

Nanny Li could see that Yue Weiwei was full of anger, but she was not angry. She said, "If we servants let our masters do whatever they want, then any cat or dog can be in this position. I have watched you grow up, and I will never let you go astray."

Yue Weiwei thought what she heard made sense, but she felt that Nanny Li did not know how to focus on the big picture and let go of the small details. She was like a mother who always protected her baby, but Minglu had grown up so much, why should she worry about everything?

"If I killed people, set fires, or did other evil things, you would of course stop and persuade me, but I was just climbing a tree!" Yue Weiwei pushed the small plate away and lay limply on the table.

"Young lady is so unrestrained!" Seeing that she didn't care about her sitting posture at all, Nanny Li sighed.

"So the young lady wants to climb a tree!"

It's Changle! Yue Weiwei sat up quickly. They were about the same age, so their thoughts could overlap.

"Yeah!" Yue Weiwei's eyes lit up and she nodded like pounding garlic.

Nanny Li glanced at Changle in reproach, and seeing that Yue Weiwei suddenly became more energetic and no longer listless, she refrained from saying anything to Changle.

"Miss also climbed a tree when she was little, and Qian Yue and I got slapped five times for that."

"Oh!" Yue sighed slightly. Using people close to you to threaten others is a tactic that works in any era.

"That was a thing from our childhood. Let's not talk about it. Now we're grown up and have the autonomy to do things." Yue Weiwei was unwilling and wanted to give it another try.

"Miss, you won't climb this tree. Looks like you'll be complaining about it for the rest of your life!" Changle laughed.

"Why is Minglu under house arrest? Will this help her remember the past?" Yue Weiwei was puzzled.

"Master Taiwei is doing this for your own good. Look at your impulsive temper now. I'm really afraid that you'll get into trouble once you leave Qingxiang Pavilion." Nanny Li said worriedly.

Yue Weiwei could tell that this meant that she had a bad character. She was so angry that she could no longer suppress it. She turned her back to Nanny Li and said in a clear and loud voice, "Climbing a tree is not a big deal. It's you who is so scared of tigers!"

"Okay, okay, the young lady is in a bad mood. Madam Li, you are so old, you shouldn't bother with the younger generation." Changle hurried to smooth things over.

Yue Weiwei felt that she had spoken too loudly just now and was disrespectful to Nanny Li. She quickly turned around and watched Changle pouring her tea. She wanted to lend a hand, but she felt embarrassed and lowered her head to play with her clothes.

Nanny Li felt distressed when she saw Yue Weiwei's expression. Young and energetic people like that! They would try to do things that they were not allowed to do.

Yue Weiwei looked up and saw Nanny Li looking at her. She felt a little embarrassed and suddenly remembered what happened in the backyard. Nanny Li was very emotional just now and Yue Weiwei didn't have time to ask.

"Madam Li, what was that place you pointed to just now? There is... a vixen there?!" Yue Weiwei pointed in that direction and asked softly.

Changle took one look and said unhappily, "Miss, why do you care about her? It's better if you don't know. Why get angry with yourself?"

Yue Weiwei pondered the word "fox spirit" for a while and concluded that Minglu's husband had a concubine who was very favored.

No wonder I always hear the word “son-in-law” but never see him!

She felt sorry for Minglu, but at the same time she was proud: God helps me, I don't have to play the role of husband and wife, isn't it a joy!

"My son-in-law came early this morning, but I didn't expect him to bring a vixen with him!" Changle sat down and slammed the table in anger.

"He's been here! How come I didn't know?" Yue Weiwei was scared.

"The young lady was sleeping soundly, how could she hear Qian Yue's call!" said Nanny Li.

"Miss, you fell and are not feeling well. It's better for you to fall asleep. Otherwise, why don't you watch that vixen showing off?" Changle picked a cherry and handed it to Yue Weiwei.

Yue Weiwei took it, put it in her mouth, and tasted the cherry very sweet!

She suddenly became curious about how many concubines this "son-in-law" had. She wanted to ask, but then she thought it was too gossipy, so she picked up a few red cherries to cover her mouth.

Madam Li was so anxious: "Be careful not to choke on the cherry pits! How can you be so reckless as to eat so many!"

At this time, the guards at the door heard in unison: "Master Taiwei!"

Yue Weiwei felt a headache. What was he doing here?

Nanny Li pulled her up and walked quickly towards the door. She also noticed that there was another person standing at the door. It was the imperial physician who took the young lady's pulse when she was unconscious.

The Grand Marshal felt comforted to see that Yue Weiwei was able to move freely and in good spirits.

"Minglu, are you feeling well?" asked the Grand Marshal.

Yue Weiwei hesitated for a moment, then immediately replied, "Your Excellency..."

"After a few days of trouble, you don't even recognize me as your father!" The Grand Marshal looked dissatisfied.

"Ah? No! No!" Yue Weiwei waved her hands quickly.

"Father, oh! Father!" Yue Weiwei clumsily performed a fist-clasping salute between men.

Changle lowered his head in surprise and dared not raise it.

Nanny Li had beads of sweat rolling down her face. She hurried forward and pressed down Yue Weiwei's hand, saying in a panic, "Don't blame me, Grand Commandant. The young lady fell and was injured. I will definitely teach her etiquette."

Although the Grand Marshal was prepared, accidents were still unavoidable. He could only sigh that what Li Hengtu said was true.

He turned politely to the imperial physician and said, "Please, imperial physician, check my daughter-in-law's pulse."

Yue Weiwei recalled that the Grand Marshal had said yesterday that he wanted to invite the imperial physician, but she didn't expect that he would actually come.

Everyone followed the Grand Marshal into the room, and Yue Weiwei sat down to assist the imperial physician in taking her pulse.

"Madam Ming is in good health, but in poor spirits. Did you suffer from insomnia last night?" asked the imperial physician.

Sure enough, he was the one who treated the emperor and his empress, so amazing! Yue Weiwei admired him in her heart, she nodded and said, "I just fell asleep this morning."

"Does Madam Ming have a headache?"

"Sometimes when I'm stimulated, I feel a little bit."

The imperial physician stood up and said respectfully, "Master Taiwei, Madam Ming is fine, but the hit on the head will leave sequelae. Try to avoid stimulation that causes headaches. I will prescribe a prescription to help you sleep, soothe your nerves, and nourish your blood and brain."

The Grand Commandant said, "I'm sorry to bother you, Imperial Physician Liu, today. I wonder if Imperial Concubine Rong can have her pulse checked someday?"

"Noble Concubine Rong is in good health, Lord Taiwei, please rest assured."

The Grand Marshal looked delighted and invited the imperial physician to have tea at Dading Gate.

After seeing off the Grand Commandant, Nanny Li said solemnly, "From today on, Miss, you will learn from me, the old servant, about etiquette for meeting people, table manners, and many other subjects."

Yue Weiwei asked Changle in a low voice: "Did I behave badly just now?"

"Miss, you are a woman, how can you follow men's etiquette?" Changle felt that the young lady was really confused after falling.

Yue Weiwei pinched her fingers in disbelief, not knowing where to put them!

"No need to make complicated arrangements, just start studying now." Nanny Li said, "Miss, let's go to the room now."

Yue Weiwei closed her eyes and wished for the best.

Changle said, "I'm going to see the peach blossom pastry made by Qian Yue," and disappeared without a trace.

Yue Weiwei followed Nanny Li and recalled the TV drama clips. It didn't seem difficult for those women to perform the etiquette. For me, it was a piece of cake.

Yue Weiwei straightened his back and walked into the room.
