Quick Wear: The Short-lived Female Supporting Character Does Not Want to Be a Heartthrob

His throat hurt every time he swallowed saliva, Wan Ning frowned uncomfortably: "It hurts."

When Shen heard this, she immediately exclaimed in surprise: "Ning'er, Ning'er, you finally woke up. Mother was so worried just now."

Wan Ning struggled to open his eyes, and saw the woman in front of him with a pair of almond eyes, frowning eyebrows, and a weak look. The other party looked worried and uncomfortable at this time, and there seemed to be tears on her face.

(Is this my current mother?)

After Wan Ning saw Shen Xixi's face clearly, he took the time to sigh, saying that she really had the appearance of a gentle woman from the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River.

"mother!"

After shouting in pain, Shen responded with surprise: "Hey, hey, mother is here."

"Are you still feeling uncomfortable, Ning'er?"

Wan Ning nodded his head: "Yeah, it's uncomfortable. I have a headache and my throat is uncomfortable."

When Shen saw Wan Ning could speak clearly, she immediately hugged Wan Ning and said with great heartache: "Okay, Ning'er, be good. Mother has asked someone to call the imperial physician, and he will come to see you right away."

As he was speaking, the voice of a palace maid came from outside the door: "My dear, the imperial physician is here."

Shen immediately raised her voice: "Come in quickly."

Soon Wan Ning's hand was pulled up, and a pair of rough hands pressed on the pulse point on her wrist. After a moment, an old voice said, "The fever in the Tenth Princess' body has not subsided yet, and it is getting worse."

"Then the imperial physician, please prescribe medicine quickly so that my son can get better."

"Yes, I need to look at the previous prescription and consider adding or subtracting some."

As soon as the old doctor finished speaking, Shen immediately asked her maid to get the prescription. Soon the prescription was handed to the old doctor, who wrote a new prescription.

"Your Excellency, this is the prescription I wrote for you."

Shen didn't know how to use prescriptions, but she looked through the medicines that always appeared during the years of taking care of the child: "Okay, I'll trouble the imperial physician."

"Mushui, go get the medicine from the imperial physician."

Mu Shui is Shen's personal maid. She has been by Shen's side for several years since she came to serve in the side hall of Xichen Pavilion. "Yes, don't worry, my lady. I will go right away."

When Mu Shui followed the imperial physician to the Imperial Medical Bureau to get medicine, Qingya, who was left in the palace, stepped forward and asked, "Sir, are you still going to wipe the young master's body?"

When she heard that she was going to be wiped, Wan Ning opened her eyes again. She didn't know how much sweat she had produced before. She just felt that her body was sticky and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Mom, I need to wipe it."

Shen frowned, but still touched Wan Ning's hot little face: "Mother said to help you cool down. The imperial physician instructed me before. It's not a bath. You feel uncomfortable, right? When you recover, I will wash you well."

Wan Ning had no choice but to nod his head and say "yes". After all, in this era, it was too easy to die from a cold if you weren't careful.

Afterwards, Shen and Qingya helped Wan Ning wipe several places with warm water and then changed them into clean clothes.

Wan Ning didn't want to move the whole time and just let them do what they wanted.

Finally the medicine soup was ready. Wan Ning drank it up with a frown on his face. The taste was so bitter that his mouth was filled with bitterness.

Wan Ning took medicine, ate, slept and went to the toilet. He lay in bed for three days and his high fever finally got better.

After the high fever subsided, Wan Ning was left with only a sore throat and a cough. He stayed in the house for several more days before being allowed to go out.

Accompanied by the palace maid Qingya, she walked around the palace and found that the mother and daughter lived in the west wing hall, and there was another lady named Xiao living in the east wing hall.

The entire Xichen Pavilion looked somewhat desolate and dilapidated. The main hall door was closed, covered with a thick layer of dust and some paint peeling. There were not many flowers and trees in the courtyard, only grass and green trees.

Wan Ning knew that only those who were not welcomed by the imperial palace were allowed to live here, and the same went for her and her daughter.

(Then, should I change Lady Shen’s current situation and improve her living standards and treatment?)

(But we still don’t know what’s going on in the palace?)

Wan Ning thought that she should not rush and wait until she understood the situation. Besides, she didn't know whether Shen wanted that kind of life.

Just as I thought of Shen, I heard Shen's voice: "Ning'er, go back quickly, don't stay outside too long."

"Yes, mother, Ning'er is here."

So not long after coming out, Wan Ning followed Shen back.

After entering the hall, Shen took her hand and walked inside. Wan Ning looked and saw that several sets of clothes were already placed on the bed.

Plain white, light blue, lotus root pink, even the shoes are these matching colors.

Wan Ning looked at Shen: "Mom, these?"

Shen smiled and said, "These are all the materials that your grandfather sent over. I started preparing them a few days ago. Take a look. Which one do you want to wear at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet?"

"Oh," Wan Ning remembered that his grandfather was a wealthy businessman.

(Yeah, it's nice to have a rich grandfather.)

Wan Ning nodded her head to show her affirmation, but she thought of what Shen had said before: "Mother, didn't you say before that Ning'er shouldn't be too ostentatious?"

Shen sent Mu Shui and Qing Ya away, and when only mother and daughter were left in the inner room, she pulled Wan Ning to sit on the bed.

"Mom said this before. It was because she felt that she couldn't fight those people and couldn't compete for anything, so the two of us should just live a quiet life."

"It's just that a few days ago, mother heard a piece of news."

Wan Ning was curious: "What news?"

"That's good news," Shen happily tapped Wan Ning's nose, "Mother heard from Concubine An that the palace will give the princes and princesses a chance to study together. It won't be like teaching the princes individually in the past. This time, the princesses will also go."

"Oh, can all princesses go?"

Hearing Wan Ning's words, Shen frowned: "Mother doesn't know, but it's a good opportunity to take advantage of the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, so I want to try to get it for you."

Wan Ning nodded: "Mom, it's okay if I don't have this opportunity. I can live well. Ning'er doesn't want to embarrass you."

Wan Ning knew Shen Shi, and she was a simple person before, but she remembered what her father, who was a businessman, said: "Don't be too aggressive in front of others. Sometimes, it's good to be simple."

That's why Shen was so careful and didn't fight for anything. Since she was the emperor's person, she would live her whole life and die in the palace. This was the view Shen had always adhered to.

"Honestly, this is how my life will be." Shen touched Wan Ning's little head and said, "But you are different, Ning'er. You are still young. You still have a chance to go out."

"My Ning'er is growing up and will get married. I hope she can find a good home."

Well, you can't escape getting married no matter where you go. Especially in ancient times, parents always worried about their children's marriage.

Wan Ning knew Shen's good intentions and didn't want Shen to be sad: "Don't worry, mother, Ning'er will definitely marry well in the future."
