After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince

Chapter 25: Difference between the rich and the poor?

After Yuan Xu left, little Yuan Zhao followed Helan Xuenuo obediently. When they passed the Nine-Curve Corridor, the drooping willow branches were covered in green, and a piece of them hung at the edge of the corridor, and the green stretched as far as the eye could see.

Little Yuanzhao jumped up and grabbed one, and the little guy kept jumping around, revealing his naughty nature.

He swung the willow branch with great force, hitting Qi Didi who was walking behind him. Qi Didi couldn't control herself and yelled angrily, "Whose child is this?"

Helan Xuenuo happened to be at the corner of the corridor. When she heard the sound, she took a step back and looked around the corner. She saw Qi Didi scolding Xiao Yuanzhao, who shrank with his head down.

"What's wrong, sister?" Helan Xuenuo walked forward and greeted her with concern, and Yuanzhao hid behind her.

"Sister, whose naughty child is this? He deliberately hit me with a willow branch." Qi Didi's eyes were full of disgust for Xiao Yuanzhao. If Helan Xuenuo was not here, she would definitely break off a willow branch and hit Xiao Yuanzhao well.

"Something has been going on in the Yuan Mansion recently, so Yuan Xu has let his brother stay in the mansion for a few days and will send him back after a few days."

"Sister, I'm not saying anything bad about you! You didn't care about Yuan Xu in the first place, but now you're taking care of the children for him. I think the Yuan family only knows how to teach them martial arts and fighting, and they definitely haven't learned any rules. You'd better send him back earlier, so that no one can rely on him." When Qi Didi said this, she looked at Helan Xuenuo with a worried look, as if she was doing it for her own good.

Yuanzhao stuck his head out, looked at Qi Didi with hatred, and made a face.

"Sister, look, he glared at me even when he did something wrong." Qi Didi was annoyed by Yuanzhao. She pointed her finger at Yuanzhao in anger.

"Sister, don't be angry. Don't bother with the child. I will talk to her later. Look, your arm is all red. Go to my hospital to apply some medicine." Helan Xuenuo just glanced at Qi Didi's red arm and she felt secretly happy.

"Forget it. I was going to go to your yard and sit with you for a while, but now my arm hurts, so I won't go." Qi Didi's expression was really bad, and she looked very annoyed. Her maid Chunhe stood aside and didn't dare to say a word.

Helan Xuenuo glanced at Chunhe, "Sister, let Chunhe come and get it. The moonlight cream in my house was given to A'niang by the Queen. It is the most effective in removing blemishes. You can apply it overnight, and it will be back to normal tomorrow. Sister, your skin is smooth and tender, you can't let these marks affect it."

"Then follow Sister Helan."

After receiving Qi Didi's order, Chunhe immediately bowed and said, "Okay, girl." But as she spoke, her lips trembled up and down, and she looked extremely humble.

Chun He followed them all the way without saying a word. Xiao Zhu asked her a few questions from time to time, but she only replied with "Yeah, OK, Oh."

Xiao Zhu thought she was really boring and stopped trying to talk to her.

Xiao Yuanzhao was much more obedient. Xiaozhu was responsible for watching him from behind. He would look back at Xiaozhu from time to time. Xiaozhu's eyes warned him, and he would turn around and walk away obediently.

When he arrived at the South Courtyard, little Yuanzhao was attracted by the mulberry tree in the courtyard. It was spring, and the tree was full of mulberries, with a few hanging among the emerald green leaves.

He quickly climbed up the tree, picked a few bunches, wiped them on his clothes, and started eating.

Just as Xiao Zhu was about to grab him, Helan Xuenuo smiled and pulled Xiao Zhu back, "Let him be. This kid has too much energy. If he doesn't use it up, he'll definitely cause some trouble. Go get Chun He some medicine."

Xiao Zhu pursed her lips and shook her head, then walked to the storage room and brought out a large medicine box made of yellow pear wood. She opened the box and smelled bursts of medicine, some pleasant and some unpleasant, the smells mixed together, but they were extremely special.

Xiao Zhu opened the second drawer and took out a small, round glass lamp. She handed it to Chun He. Chun He wanted to take it, but Xiao Zhu didn't let go. She sighed and said, "I think the person who needs this moonlight cream the most is not your daughter."

Chun He remained silent, her head still bowed. Only after Xiao Zhu let go did she clutch the medicine box and put it into her sleeve. She bowed to Helan Xuenuo, who was sitting at the table drinking tea, and said, "Thank you, young lady."

When she turned to leave, Helan Xuenuo called her, "Chunhe, come here and have a taste of the newly arrived Biluochun."

"Girl, I dare not."

Helan Xuenuo signaled Xiaozhu with her eyes. Xiaozhu took the tea and walked towards Chunhe. He pretended to step on air and the tea spilled on Chunhe's sleeve. Both of them were in a panic.

Xiaozhu hurried forward and wiped her sleeve with her handkerchief. Chunhe refused, but Xiaozhu grabbed her arm and pulled her sleeve up, revealing a large red area with scars one after another, long and short, deep and shallow.

She squeezed so hard that she pinched Chunhe's scar. Chunhe frowned and endured the pain without crying out.

Xiao Zhu was frightened by the scars. "Chun He, what happened? Who abused you?"

Chun He put down her sleeves, her eyes concealing her feelings, "It's okay, I fell down by myself."

Xiao Zhu wanted to continue questioning, but was interrupted by Helan Xuenuo's voice, "Xiao Zhu, get a box of moonlight cream for Chun He."

"Girl, this is too expensive. I can't accept it. I am of low status and don't deserve such a good ointment. I bought some bruise ointment and I can apply it myself."

While speaking, Xiaozhu had already taken out another glass box from the medicine box and stuffed it into Chunhe's hand, but Chunhe was still refusing.

Helan Xuenuo stood up and walked to Chunhe's side. She took the medicine box from Xiaozhu's hand, grabbed Chunhe's hand and put it in hers. Looking at her, she couldn't help but feel pity. "Medicine is made for people to use. How can there be a distinction between high and low medicine? After death, everyone's soul returns to the same place. How can there be nobility? Don't belittle yourself. This moonlight cream can remove scars. It's so ugly to leave these scars."

Chun He finally accepted the ointment. When she heard Helan Xuenuo speak, her eyes lit up a little, but soon disappeared completely, returning to a dead silence. "Thank you, young lady, but my scar won't heal."

How can new wounds pile up on top of old ones to heal?

When Chunhe left with the medicine box, Helan Xuenuo and Xiaozhu stood together, watching her back as she left, and they both sighed together.

In the previous life, Chunhe died before Qi Didi married the second prince. The cause of death was unknown. Qi Didi claimed that she died of illness. Considering that Chunhe had served her for many years, she paid some money to bury Chunhe.

Helan Xuenuo recalled that Chunhe had met her once before she was drugged. That day, Chunhe lowered her head, but her eyes were a little panicked. "Miss, are you going to attend the palace banquet? Be careful..."

"Watch out for what?"

Before Chunhe finished speaking, Qi Didi walked over and her words fell into Qi Didi's ears.

Since she came over, Chun He's body visibly shrank.

"I'm asking you, what should you be careful about?" As Qi Didi spoke, a cruel look flashed in her eyes. Helan Xuenuo couldn't see this cruelty, but only Chun He could understand it.

Chun He lowered her head for a while and squeezed out a few words, "The eldest lady is used to drinking good tea. Chun He is worried that the young lady will not be accustomed to the tea of the palace."

"Go back to the courtyard first. I have something to talk to my sister about."

Qi Didi stared at Chunhe, with a hint of anger in her eyes.

At that time, Helan Xuenuo didn't take it to heart at all. She just thought Chunhe was an ignorant servant. How could the tea in the palace be bad? It was probably all the highest quality tea. She drank many cups at the banquet and forgot all about Chunhe's words.

Now that she thought about it, Chunhe was probably reminding her on purpose. Thinking about it, she actually wanted to slap herself a few times. She was so stupid in her previous life.
