Chapter 19: Yuan Sees Good
The next day, Xu Miao got up early and looked at Zhou Jiyuan who was still sleeping in bed.
Xu Miao walked to the bed with a smile and reached out to tuck the corner of the quilt for him. He was really a child, sleeping like a dead pig, just a little thin.
Xu Miao asked Mrs. Yang to move a small bed into the room last night.
Before leaving the house, Mrs. Yang told Xu Miao that the young master coughed badly at night and sometimes woke up from coughing, so she asked Xu Miao to be alert when sleeping.
In order to get a good night's sleep, Xu Miao fed Zhou Jiyuan a bowl of water with something added before going to bed. This time she didn't dare to drop too much, just a drop of blood.
After a good night's sleep, Xu Miao looked at Zhou Jiyuan who was still sleeping in bed, then walked out of the house and went to the kitchen at the back.
Mrs. Han had already started working on the stove. The small kitchen at the back was specially prepared for Zhou Jiyuan.
Seeing Xu Miao coming to the kitchen so early, Mrs. Han hurriedly greeted Xu Miao: "New Madam, you're up so early. Did you sleep well last night?"
Last night, the young master finished eating the white porridge made by his new wife, rested for a while, and then drank half a bowl of meat porridge.
This made Mrs. Han very happy. She was also worried that if the new wife came to the kitchen, she would lose her job.
But she never expected that the new wife would eat with the young master and even praised her meat porridge for its delicious taste. Mrs. Han was so happy that she felt like she had won the jackpot. She returned to the kitchen and worked even harder.
"Good morning, Mother Han. What are you doing?" Xu Miao also greeted Mother Han with a smile.
The servants in Zhou Jiyuan's backyard were all well managed, and no one would look down on Xu Miao just because she was there to bring good luck.
Especially the old people in the courtyard, such as Yang Pozi and Han Pozi, everyone respected her very much.
Xu Miao was also happy to deal with them. She grew up among the servants in the backyard of the Xu Mansion. She understood the thoughts of these servants better than anyone else. Now everyone had the same goal, which was to serve Zhou Jiyuan well.
Only when Zhou Jiyuan is well can everyone have a good life.
"I was thinking of making some shredded pork noodles for the little boy in the morning. I'm making bone soup right now." Mother Han said, pointing to a small clay pot behind her that was emitting a fragrant aroma.
"A bowl of hot noodles is the most comfortable thing in the morning. I'll give it to the little prince today. Mother Han, go ahead and do your thing. I'll see if I can make some side dishes to go with Mother Han's noodles."
Xu Miao saw some fresh bean sprouts on the floor of the kitchen, so he took some out and thought of making some cold bean sprouts for Zhou Jiyuan to eat.
Sprouts are vibrant vegetables. Eating more of them will help children grow.
Mother Han watched Xu Miao squatting on the ground picking bean sprouts and smiled and praised Xu Miao, "The new wife is really resourceful. I heard that the young master ate several mouthfuls of radish yesterday. I worked so hard to make the radish bloom, but the young master wouldn't eat it."
Xu Miao: "Mother Han, call me Xu Miao. I will come to the kitchen often in the future. I feel embarrassed when you always call me the new lady. The young master is a spoiled child who needs to be coaxed."
Xu Miao and Han's mother busied themselves in the kitchen for a while, while Han's mother rolled out noodles. Xu Miao cooked a pot of thick millet porridge and told Han's mother to pour the oil from the porridge into a small bowl and keep it warm on the stove. Only then did Xu Miao get up and return to the house.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Duke Dingguo and his wife sitting around Zhou Jiyuan's bed. The Duke's wife was sitting there wiping her tears with a handkerchief in her hand.
Mrs. Yang also knelt on the ground and cried tears of joy.
Seeing the situation in the room, Xu Miao was stunned: What happened? When she left just now, Zhou Jiyuan was sleeping soundly in bed. Why was the lady crying again? And Mrs. Yang was crying too.
Xu Miao walked into the room without bothering to greet everyone. He walked forward and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Is Yuan not feeling well?"
The Duke's wife looked up and saw Xu Miao's panicked face, and she cried even harder.
Duke Dingguo and his wife were both sitting by the bed, so Xu Miao couldn't see what was happening to Zhou Jiyuan. Anxiously, Xu Miao stretched her neck to look at the bed: "Madam, please stop crying and tell me what happened to A Yuan. Oh, I'm so worried."
"Sister, I'm fine. I just had a good night's sleep and my mother cried with joy." Zhou Jiyuan's voice was heard from inside.
Hearing Zhou Jiyuan's reply, Xu Miao finally felt relieved: "Oh my god, this lady is crying like her child has died. Is that really the case? I was scared to death."
At this time, Duke Dingguo Zhou Chenli stood up and made room for the person next to him.
Xu Miao hurriedly greeted Zhou Chenli: "Good morning, Duke."
Zhou Chenli waved his hand: "Go see A Yuan, he's fine. My wife loves to cry, you'll get used to it slowly."
At this time, the Duke's wife also stopped crying. She held a handkerchief in her hand, and said to Xu Miao with an apologetic look and a sobbing voice, "I just can't help it. I want to cry when I see A Yuan feeling better. You don't know, A Yuan has not been sleeping well at night recently. He wakes up several times every night with a cough. My A Yuan is so pitiful."
After saying that, he started sitting there and crying silently.
Xu Miao finally understood why even Zhou Jiyuan was afraid of his mother crying.
The Duke's wife's tears came so suddenly and were so powerful.
"Mom, please stop crying. I want to get up. You came so early in the morning. I'm almost dying of peeing. Let me go out to relieve myself!" Zhou Jiyuan twisted his body and yelled while lying on the bed.
His parents came early in the morning, and last night before bed, that woman had given him a large glass of water. Now he was suffocating.
Zhou Chenli chuckled and said, "Good son, get up quickly. Dad will go out with you."
There was chaos in the room again.
Zhou Chenli took Zhou Jiyuan out of the house to relieve himself, and Mrs. Yang instructed the maid to fold Zhou Jiyuan's quilt, change the bed, and tidy up the house.
The Duke's wife took Xu Miao to stand in the outer room and watch them busy.
The Duke's wife stopped crying and smiled at Xu Miao: "I knew you were a lucky person. Look, Yuan started to get better after you came for a day. You don't know how worried I was last night. I wanted to come and see you, but the Duke stopped me. Otherwise, I would have come last night."
Xu Miao: Don't come. If you come, you'll cry, and I'll have to comfort you. If I can't comfort you, I'll be held responsible. The Duke is a good man, and he's holding you back.
Xu Miao also smiled and replied, "I don't deserve your praise, Madam. It's because the young master is blessed that he is recovering so quickly."
After a while, Zhou Chenli returned with Zhou Jiyuan. Xu Miao was busy helping him wash his face and wipe his hands.
He also asked Chun'er to go to the kitchen to bring the bowl of porridge oil that was warm on the stove, and gave Zhou Jiyuan a lot of reasons, coaxing him to drink it.
The Duke and his wife just stood by and watched with a smile without disturbing anyone.
After waiting for a while, Zhou Chenli saw that the house was almost busy, so he asked the housekeeper Qian to go to the front yard to get a small plate of silver ingots.
The servants serving in Zhou Jiyuan's courtyard were rewarded with one ingot each, and the personal servants like Yang Pozi and Han Pozi were rewarded with two ingots each.
The servants in the yard were so happy that they smiled and knelt on the ground to congratulate the Duke.
Mrs. Yang burst into tears again. It was because of the steward Qian who had been with her on the night watch last night that she thought the silver ingots were gone.
The fierce one who woke up in the morning and cried with his wife.
