Cheng Sang was visibly improving. Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before Cheng Sang recovered.
Su Xiaoxiao went to boil medicine for Cheng Sang and made a few snacks.
The three little ones woke up and went to the small kitchen to look for their mother.
They stuck to their mother’s body and were as satisfied as three clowns.
After breakfast, Mei Ji brought them to the small garden to play.
It was already the third day since Cheng Qingxue locked herself in her room. In order to coax her daughter, Cheng Lian spent a lot of money to buy a golden dress from the best embroidery building in the Southern Border.
Covered by her dress, she was so beautiful that she was glowing, like an ethereal fairy.
Anyone who obtained such beautiful clothes would want to go out and show off.
Cheng Qingxue was no exception.
After Cheng Lian helped her arrange for a walk in the suburbs later, Cheng Qingxue left the courtyard happily.
She could have taken the carriage directly. However, she wanted to show off in front of Su Xiaoxiao.
Unexpectedly, just as she arrived at the entrance of Cheng Sang’s courtyard, a lump of mud slapped her squarely on the hem of her golden dress. She stiffened and roared angrily, “Which wretched slave doesn’t want his life?” The three little ones who were playing with mud looked up in confusion.
It was Xiaohu who accidentally let go. Dahu had originally planned to bring his brother over to apologize.
However, Cheng Qingxue actually called his brother a wretched slave.
Xiaohu didn’t understand but Dahu understood that these words were not good.
Su Xiaoxiao walked out of the small kitchen and looked at Cheng Qingxue indifferently. “You like to bark so much. Are you a dog?”
“You…” Cheng Qingxue had come to show off in front of her. Unexpectedly, she failed and was smashed by mud.
This time, even she felt that she had embarra.s.sed herself.
She looked at the triplets that had inexplicably appeared in the courtyard and was shocked and furious. “Where did these wild children come from? Don’t you know that children are not allowed in the residence!”
In the past, in order not to agitate Cheng Sang, Xie Yunhe had indeed given an order not to bring children into the residence.
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “I’m afraid you have to ask your good sister.”
“What do you mean?”
Cheng Qingxue had been locked in her room and didn’t know that the children had come to acknowledge their mother.
At this moment, Steward Pang came to look for Cheng Qingxue.
“Second Miss, you’re here. The carriage is ready.”
Cheng Qingxue said angrily, “What’s the point of preparing a carriage! Can I go out like this? What’s wrong with these wild children? Who allowed them to enter the residence? Hurry up and chase them out!”
Steward Pang’s expression changed. “Second Miss, you can’t!”
Cheng Qingxue pointed at her skirt. “They dirtied my clothes!”
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and said, “That’s right. You’re so good at causing trouble. Hurry up and get your Saintess to bring the children back!”
Hearing that she was going to send the children back to the Saintess, Steward Pang panicked.
It was not easy to suppress the rumors. What if they blew up again?
Steward Pang tried his best and was just short of kneeling down to Cheng Qingxue before finally coaxing her away.
In the afternoon, the Saintess sat in front of her dressing table.
Her forehead was finally not so swollen. There was still a little of the swell, but it could barely be covered by makeup.
She was more or less affected by not going to the blessing ceremony yesterday.
Coincidentally, the day to offer medicinal wine to the King of the Southern Wilderness was approaching.
In the past, it was Eunuch Jin who went to the Holy Maiden Temple to get it. This time, she planned to personally send it to the King of the Southern
Wilderness and clarify the rumors outside.
Her medicinal wine was a proper bejeweled nectar that could extend one’s lifespan. It was not the so-called immortal pills refined by the warlocks outside which looked to strengthen the body, but were actually poisonous.
Xie Yunhe was also drinking the medicinal wine she made. There should be more at home.
The Saintess asked the maidservant to get a pot from Xie Yunhe and put it on the carriage.
The maidservant accepted the order and left.
The Saintess’ carriage was of the royal family’s standard and was more s.p.a.cious and luxurious than the carriage in the residence.
All the servants in the residence knew not to approach easily.
The three little ones had just arrived and were unaware of the rules.
They had had enough of playing with mud and played hide-and-seek with Mei Ji.
This round, Mei Ji was the one looking for them while they hid.
They climbed into the carriage and hid.
The carriage was s.p.a.cious and bright, and the ground was covered in soft animal skin.
“Wow.”
Xiaohu rolled on the hide.
He was extremely satisfied!
Erhu and Dahu also rolled away.
The three little packrats rolled around, completely forgetting that they were hiding.
Erhu climbed onto the soft couch and jumped down.
Clang!
He knocked over the table.
The wine pot on the table was by the window. With his collision, it fell out of the window with a violent sway.
Dahu said, “Something fell.”
The three little ones climbed onto the table and leaned against the window to look down.
She got out of the carriage again and squatted down to look at the overturned pot.
“What is it?” Xiaohu asked.
The flagons of the Great Zhou were thin and tall, and the flagons of the Southern Wilderness were round and flat.
Dahu thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s a chamber pot!”
The child could not understand the material and patterns of the vessel. He only remembered that there was a chamber pot at home that looked similar to this.
The chamber pot was used to store urine. Xiaohu understood.
He pointed at the water stain on the gra.s.s and said, “Pee.”
Needless to say, the color of the medicinal wine was yellow and clear. It was really a little similar.
The three of them had just dirtied someone’s clothes and caused trouble, and now they had knocked over their chamber pot.
The three of them felt a little bad.
Dahu thought of a good idea.
He picked up the chamber pot and aimed it at Xiaohu. “Pee.” Xiaohu shook his head. “Xiaohu doesn’t have pee.”
Erhu untied the small water bag at his waist. “For you to drink.”
Xiaohu gulped it down.
Not long after, he blinked and said, “I have pee.”
With the help of Dahu and Erhu, Xiaohu peed into the chamber pot without missing a drop.
Dahu carefully put the chamber pot back.
However, they found it strange that while their chamber pot was placed on the ground at home, this family insisted on placing it on the table.
No wonder it spilled.
Dahu kindly placed the chamber pot on the ground.
The Saintess was about to leave.
The maidservant came over to check the carriage first.
“Eh? Who placed the wine pot on the ground?”
She put the flask back on the table.
She did not suspect that someone had tampered with the medicinal wine.
This kind of pot was silver. If someone poisoned it, the pot would have changed color long ago..
