The reborn girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent marquis hugs her and coaxes her!

Chapter 228 The County Princess is much better!

Xu Rongrong naturally had no idea how the two men fought outside.

Now, she is doing embroidery with Wen Yao in the house.

She wanted to embroider a small piece of clothing for Mu Qianyin's unborn baby.

Embroidery was certainly not unfamiliar to her. When she was in the Xu Mansion, she had done embroidery in exchange for money because of Xu Liu's embezzlement.

And right now...

Her hands can now barely lift a pen to write and lead the meal, but... it is still a little difficult to do embroidery.

I accidentally pricked my fingertip.

"Miss... let me do it." Wen Yao used a handkerchief to press the blood beads oozing from Xu Rongrong's fingertips, and advised with heartache. Xu Rongrong smiled and said, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."

This was not a consolation at all. Her fingers were indeed less sensitive now, and she could hardly feel the pain even if they were broken.

But how could Wen Yao believe it?

My young lady is always like this. She always keeps silent no matter what happens.

So, she went to the backyard and picked up the two little rabbits she brought back from the southern suburbs.

The two little ones were sleeping soundly when they were suddenly picked up and looked at Xu Rongrong with cute faces.

This sight melted Xu Rongrong's heart.

"It's still a little cold in my room. Bring them here. What if they get frozen?" She said this, but she took the two little ones and put them back in the rabbit hutch.

Wen Yao smiled and said, "My lady, the poison has been largely neutralized now. I don't feel cold even when I'm so close to them. They have thick fur on their bodies, so how could they be cold? My lady, you're always thinking about this and that. Why don't you think about yourself for a bit?"

Xu Rongrong: "..."

She was educated by the maid.

In the end, she gave up the embroidery completely. Wen Yao took away the entire embroidery frame with a smile, never giving her another chance to do it.

Xu Rongrong simply started playing with the two little ones.

Perhaps it was the natural sensitivity of wild animals. Although they didn't spend much time with Xu Rongrong, they could clearly sense who was the boss in the family.

Therefore, the two lazy little ones now crawled onto Xu Rongrong's legs in a twisted manner, and nudged her palms with their wet noses.

Xu Rongrong couldn't help but laugh.

Wen Yao was surprised to see this, "How interesting! You've been so busy these days, so Luo Shu has been taking care of them. They don't seem to get close to her. When they're full, they turn their butts towards her, and sometimes even get her dirty. They're not as well-behaved as they were today." Xu Rongrong smiled and tapped their noses with her fingertips: "Disobedient? Hmm? Naughty? Hmm?"

After a while, someone came in and said that Madam Lu had sent an invitation and wanted to come and visit the county lady.

Xu Rongrong hurriedly ordered Wen Yao to answer it.

In her previous life, when the Lu family left Beijing, she went out of the Marquis' Mansion to see them off.

Because she was just a concubine of a marquis without any rank, she had no right to get close, but Madam Lu seemed to have telepathy and lifted the curtain when she passed by where she was standing.

After seeing her, he nodded slightly and stopped the carriage.

She got off the carriage herself, walked up to Xu Rongrong, and warned her to take good care of herself and never spend any energy and emotion on someone who was not worth it.

Xu Rongrong will always remember the serious look in her eyes when she spoke.

That was an elder's advice to his children.

And he had only met her a few times. It seemed that in his previous life, Madam Lu was extremely pessimistic about his relationship with Mu Rong.

Then in this life...why would he come forward to help Mu Rong?

For a moment, she was looking forward to meeting Mrs. Lu for the first time in her life.

Fortunately, Mrs. Lu has always been decisive in her work and did not make her wait too long.

When I saw her again, Xu Rongrong seemed to have returned to her previous life, still with that familiar look and gentle smile on her face.

Madam Lu wore a brown and yellow Sichuan embroidered gown and two emerald Qinghu jade hairpins in her hair. She looked at Xu Rongrong with a kind look and said, "This must be the Princess of Ping'an County, right?"

Because Lu Zhi served as the Minister of Works, Mrs. Lu was also awarded the title of First-Rank Lady.

She was of higher rank than the county lady, so she did not have to perform formalities.

The palace physician who had come with Madam Lu was an acquaintance of the Weiyuan Marquisate. He quickly replied, "Indeed." Xu Rongrong stepped forward and bowed slightly, "I'm safe, Madam."

She dressed today as if she was going to visit her family elders.

She wore a double-breasted jacket with a crabapple red background and apricot yellow flowers, a translucent white jade buckle at the waist, and a silver hairpin with kingfisher feather flowers on her head. She looked dignified and pretty, yet still had the lightness of a young girl.

Her outfit was not luxurious at all, and she had no intention of showing off in front of others by using her title of Marquis of Weiyuan.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu felt a little relieved.

Although it was the first time she met Xu Rongrong, she had heard her master and the palace doctor repeatedly talk about how Mu Rong favored her and even planned to build his own "Zhuxiang Yayuan" for her.

She was really afraid that she would meet a woman with a flamboyant personality today, just like... Lin Jiaoyue.

Although no one had ever spoken about the relationship between the Lin family girl and Mu Rong, she, as someone who had experienced it, could naturally see it. The girl treated Mu Rong like a kite, pretending to place herself in his hands, but in reality, her whole body and soul were floating high and far away. If she met someone more suitable, she would cut the kite string and tangle with someone else.

The girl in front of her was quite pleasing to her eye, not to mention her outfit, which made her feel as if she was meeting a younger member of her family.

As her thoughts turned, she pulled Xu Rongrong up and said, "There's no need to be so formal between you and me. Minister Lu and I treat Rong'er like our own child. He was extremely worried when he heard you weren't sick, but I didn't come to disturb you because I thought it was not appropriate for you to see people when you are sick. Now that you are feeling better, I naturally want to come and see you."

She held Xu Rongrong's hand, frowning slightly: "Why are your hands so cold?"

Xu Rongrong smiled and described her symptoms of poisoning: "...It's been over half a month now, and I'm afraid there's still some residual poison in my body. That's why my body temperature is still different from that of a normal person. I'm sorry to have you worried."

"I had only heard Minister Lu talk about it before, but since I had never heard of the Ice Sealing Poison, I couldn't imagine what the symptoms were. Now that I see you like this, I'm really scared. I really don't know how you managed to get through those ten days."

"If you trust me, I'll have the palace doctor take your pulse again to see how you are doing."

If it were someone else, Xu Rongrong would certainly not agree.

But Mrs. Lu was different. Xu Rongrong knew that she was really worried about her health. Even though this was the first time they met in this life, Mrs. Lu's love for Mu Rong was extremely sincere.

Therefore, he felt pity for her because of his love for her.

What's more, the palace doctor is not just anyone else.

So she nodded: "Thank you for the trouble, Madam."

Upon hearing this, the palace doctor stepped forward, his face also full of sincerity.

Since she returned to the capital, her position had been in jeopardy due to the Crown Prince's involvement in the Huangzhuang incident. To avoid suspicion, officials in the capital had almost stopped interacting with each other. If he frequently visited the Marquis's residence, it would inevitably attract too much attention. Therefore, she could only worry in her heart.

Although the Marquis often sent news to the Lu Mansion, he was an official in the mansion after all, and much of the news was not true. Now that he saw it with his own eyes, he was finally relieved.

His hand rested on Xu Rongrong's wrist.

After pondering for a long time, he showed a happy expression: "It's all right! The county lady is all right now!"
