"Mom, do you really want to do this? My cousin was very good to us in the past..."
On this day, a low-key carriage slowly headed towards the palace gate.
As soon as the obedient girl in the car spoke, she was immediately scolded by Zhou, "It's because you are so stupid that you let Xia Yunxian be deceived. She doesn't even want to see you two! My mother has already established a relationship, but with her here , don’t even think about getting ahead in the teaching hall!”
My sister Xia Yuqin gave Xia Yulan a faint look and said, "If you don't dare to do it, go back home. Don't ruin mother's plan."
"Aren't you afraid, sister?" This was the first time she had done such a harmful thing.
"Afraid? Do you know who are the people who have come to discuss marriage with me recently? I must enter the teaching hall!"
Unexpectedly, Xia Yuqin's expression suddenly became extremely cold, and Xia Yulan was so frightened that she shrank back. Recently, her sister has been moody, she no longer plays the piano, and she no longer even goes to her favorite theater troupe.
But she doesn't understand, isn't the family background of those who come to discuss marriage very good? They are all scholarly and clean, and they will definitely be stable if they marry them.
I heard Mrs. Zhou curse bitterly, "They are all bullies who are afraid of the strong. How can the young lady from our General's Mansion marry into such a small family!"
Fortunately, the sky is the limit.
Xia Yunxian deceived the key to the headmaster's house, causing her to be restricted in everything she does now. She originally wanted to buy the best dowry for her two daughters, so that she could win a place in her husband's family in the future, but now she can only seize the opportunity to select a female doctor. opportunity!
The atmosphere in the car became extremely solemn, making Xia Yulan feel suffocated. She looked down at the things she put on her knees and did not dare to say anything else.
There was a lot of traffic at the gate of the palace, and the air was filled with a faint scent of osmanthus.
Xia Yunxian looked at the orderly and graceful figures. As she expected, there were not as many people signing up as she had imagined.
"Why are you feeling a little sorry, madam?"
Chunxiao originally thought it was something to be happy about. You must know that this is an unprecedented change in Dongling Kingdom. Women can also enter the imperial hospital and no longer have to be constrained by the affairs of the house!
"Ms. Liang is the highest-ranked woman among the women who signed up this time." Xia Yunxian had a deep meaning, and she felt a little disappointed when she glanced at it.
I'm afraid that most of the women here regard this opportunity as a bargaining chip for future marriages, but she also knows that nothing can be rushed.
She believes that such changes will slowly extend to ordinary people's homes in the near future, putting aside utilitarianism and truly giving a fair opportunity to women who like to practice medicine.
"Mrs. Prince, you are well."
At this time, Mrs. Zhou had already led Xia Yuqin and Xia Yulan towards them. Chunxiao was a little surprised. They had obviously broken up with each other before, but he didn't expect that the second lady would take the initiative to talk to them today.
Xia Yunxian smiled back and said, "Thank you, Auntie, for remembering me."
"I haven't seen my cousin for a long time, and Yuqin misses her so much that she went to Jinlou to pick out a hairpin for her cousin... I bought it with Yuqin's private money. I hope my cousin won't dislike it!"
Xia Yuqin's words were gentle and cautious, completely different from her gloomy and cold appearance in the carriage.
She seemed to be afraid that Xia Yunxian would misunderstand that she had misappropriated the general's treasury money, so she specially explained.
"This butterfly..." Xia Yunxian's eyes fell on this unique red hairpin, and after a moment he sighed, "It's so lifelike. Sister Yuqin has really good taste."
Xia Yuqin's originally worried heart finally relaxed, and she thought the matter had been exposed.
Also, if she hadn't had a friend come back from Xiliang and tell her about the meaning of butterflies, ordinary people would never know it.
"I, I also have a gift for my cousin."
Xia Yulan winked, and then timidly stepped forward and took out an exquisite sachet, "There are some refreshing medicinal materials in it. My cousin suffered a lot for the refugees in the western suburbs."
"Sister Yulan is still so considerate, I will wear it, thank you very much."
Xia Yunxian smiled, and reached out to gently stroke her black hair. Such a small gesture made Xia Yulan feel extremely guilty.
She remembered that when she went to play in her uncle's house, her cousin would often make her happy, but she had to listen to what her mother and sister said.
Seeing that Xia Yunxian was unprepared, Mrs. Zhou sneered in her heart, but with a kind light on her face, "It was all a misunderstanding before. I hope Mrs. Crown Prince will not take it to heart. The person in charge of the assessment and selection this time is the envoy from the front yard." Mr. Hua, my second aunt has already established a relationship and will help you make an introduction soon."
Chunxiao in the corner looked like she had seen a ghost. Zhou was clearly on edge when he saw his wife before, so why did he become an open-minded and loving elder now?
And for someone as smart as her, is she really willing to share her relationship?
"This envoy of Hua Lao Home is an upright person. He doesn't like to be opportunistic and form cliques. You have real abilities, so don't let others take advantage of you."
Bai Yujing's previous words rang in his ears, and Xia Yunxian had already made a judgment.
At this time, Zhou saw an extremely simple figure appearing in front of the palace gate from a distance.
The white-haired old man was dressed in gray cloth, carrying an old medicine box in his hand, and was followed by an old servant. The two were about to leave from the corner path, when they saw their way blocked by a woman.
"Envoy of Hua Lao Yuan, I have long admired your name!"
Zhou's appearance made the Hua Lao Yuan envoy's eyes flash with disgust. Who is she?
Recently, there have been so many inexplicable people coming to show off to me!
As expected, the movement here immediately attracted a lot of side glances from all around. I obviously just wanted to enter the palace alone without being disturbed. This was good, because I was going to be in a lot of trouble again soon!
The envoy of Hua Lao Yuan nodded perfunctorily, but Zhou clearly didn't show any intention of letting him go.
"Hurry, Madam Prince, come and see the old envoy! The envoy does not know that the strange disease and epidemic in the capital this time was all thanks to Madam Prince. Even the emperor praised her. Her medical skills are great. If you can pass the examination and enter the Imperial Hospital, please be more careful!"
With these high hats pulled off one after another, those who didn't know thought that Zhou was sincerely recommending him, but Xia Yunxian understood that this kind of flattering method was to destroy his impression in the minds of Hua adults.
What kind of medical skills are so good that the plague can only be quelled by her?
Isn't this just showing off in front of Mr. Hua and playing tricks on others?
"Second Aunt's words are serious, but Yunxian doesn't dare to take them seriously. Your Majesty has mobilized the whole capital to help the victims. The united efforts are all due to the blessing of Long En." Xia Yunxian spoke calmly.
Mr. Hua, who was already full of displeasure, looked at her one more time.
This young woman is somewhat self-aware and does not put her eyes above others just because of a little honor.
Is she the wife of the crown prince of the Yongding Hou Mansion?
He has also read that prescription, and he does have some skills.
"It's getting late, don't miss the registration time." Mr. Hua, a man of few words, actually spoke. This was obviously meant for Xia Yunxian alone.
Mrs. Zhou next to her gritted her teeth secretly, why did this girl become so humble today?
He was clearly arrogant in his own house before, but now he has lowered his stature.
But it doesn’t matter. After a while, Mr. Hua must personally order her to be kicked out!
