The Splendid Medical Concubine: The Journey of a Concubine

Chapter 56 056 Qiniang

Shen's sudden question made Shen Wan startled.

She looked at Qiniang being held in Shen's arms and shook her head without hesitation, "Of course not."

Her Qiniang is her life!

Last year, when Qiniang was lost, she almost couldn't survive...

Thinking of all that happened at that time, Shen Wan's eyes flickered, and her heart felt tense and frightened again.

Mrs. Shen frowned slightly and said with some hesitation: "I always feel that Aunt Jiang doesn't like Sister Chen very much."

In the past, Chu Qianchen didn't get close to her and always avoided her. After coming and going, she stopped forcing her. After all, Chu Qianchen was not the only concubine under her lap.

Yes, there are so many concubines in the Hou's Mansion, including the eldest, second, third and fourth, but Chu Qianchen is the only one who is dispensable in the Hou's Mansion and does not have much sense of existence. .

Obviously she is the daughter of Lord Marquis and Aunt Jiang, but Aunt Jiang always talks about her daughter...

And that day, when Grandma Cui confessed and bumped into the table, she kept saying that she was fighting for Chu Qianchen.

When Shen thought about it, she always felt an inexplicable sense of disobedience.

"Big girl!"

Shen's thoughts were interrupted by the maid's salute coming from outside.

The next moment, the door curtain was opened, and Chu Qianhuang walked in. She was wearing a bright red embroidered skirt. The brightly colored skirt made her look even more delicate.

"Sister Huang, come here quickly." Shen Wan happily waved to Chu Qianhuang, signaling her to come over.

Chu Qianhuang bowed politely, then walked over and said with a happy smile: "Aunt."

Shen Wan took Chu Qianhuang's hand and asked affectionately: "You have been a companion to the third princess recently. Are you still used to living in the palace?"

"I have the imperial concubine taking care of me, and the third princess treats me very well." Chu Qianhuang smiled sweetly and generously.

The more Shen Wan looked at Chu Qianhuang, the more she liked her. She patted her hand and said with a smile, "Sister Huang is getting better and better as she grows older. She has a bit of the magnanimity of your mother when she was young."

As she said this, she thought of something and looked at Shen who was sitting on the Luohan bed. "Speaking of which, eldest sister, I saw someone a few days ago. His eyes are very similar to yours. He is very beautiful."

It was rare for Mrs. Shen to hear Shen Wan praise an outsider like this, so she joked and casually said, "Maybe he is a relative of this family."

"How can our Shen family be so lucky?" Shen Wan said enthusiastically, "The miracle doctor I just mentioned also has a pair of phoenix eyes, which are almost exactly the same as your eldest sister when you were young."

One of Chu Qianhuang's hands froze slightly, then he leaned over and asked, "The miracle doctor?"

Shen Wan told the story of the miracle doctor again and sighed: "...When I was at Jishi Hall, the little miracle doctor looked at me when he came out of the back hall, just like when I was at my parents' house. Big sister, you look so similar when you look at me!”

"Aunt, what does that miracle doctor look like?" Chu Qianhuang asked curiously, "Is he as good-looking as my mother?"

The girl in her prime is innocent and charming, with a coquettish air and a bit of coquettishness.

"Then I don't know." Shen Wan said with a smile, "The miracle doctor's face is covered with a veil, so his appearance cannot be seen, but he is very young. I look like he is only thirteen or fourteen years old. He is probably the same as Sister Huang. You are about the same age."

Shen Wan looked at Chu Qianhuang and suddenly said: "Sister Huang, your eyes don't look like your mother's."

She just said this casually and didn't notice that Chu Qianhuang's eyelashes trembled slightly.

Chu Qianhuang pursed her lips and smiled, and said casually: "Aunt, my second sister also has a pair of phoenix eyes. Do you want to meet her?"

Hearing the mother and daughter mention Chu Qianchen, Shen Wan felt a sense of disgust in her heart and said in a wan tone, "No need."

Phoenix eyes are not uncommon. Concubine Chu in the palace has phoenix eyes. It is normal for her niece to be like an aunt. There is nothing to see, she is just a concubine.

Shen Wan changed the subject and said: "Sister, I haven't seen Brother Mu for a long time. Take me to see him."

"Come on, let's go take a look at Brother Mu together." Shen agreed with a smile, "Brother Mu's legs haven't healed yet. Recently, he has been resting in the blue gauze cupboard in my house." She said as she spoke. She stood up with Qiniang in her arms and walked back, teasing the little girl lovingly, "Qiniang, let my brother play with you later."

Qiniang was dumbfounded, playing with her fingers as if she hadn't heard anything.

The Shen sisters exchanged glances, and a wry smile appeared on Shen Wan's face.

At this time, Qiniang suddenly twisted her body, eager to break away from Shen's arms.

So, Mrs. Shen put her on the ground, squatted down, and asked gently: "Qiniang, what's wrong?"

Qiniang didn't even look at her. She looked outside the house from the open window on the east side. In the blue sky, there was a dragonfly or paper kite soaring among the clouds.

"Qiniang wants to play with paper bamboo shoots." Mrs. Shen gently touched the little girl's head.

Qiniang's eyes were still looking straight at the dragonfly or kite.

Chu Qianhuang took the initiative and suggested: "Mom, aunt, let me take Qiniang to play with paper kites."

Shen Wan hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. She took Qiniang's hand and put it into Chu Qianhuang's hand.

It seemed that because her wish was fulfilled, Qiniang finally stopped making trouble and obediently let Chu Qianhuang hold hands and went out.

Qiniang's wet nurses and nuns also quickly followed.

After the two cousins ​​​​disappeared, Mrs. Shen whispered: "Awan, is Qiniang still like this?"

"..." Shen Wan nodded, his expression downcast, and the sadness in his brows and eyes could not be concealed.

She took a deep breath and added: "A few days ago, a Taoist priest named Xuanjing came to Yuanqing Temple. I heard that it was very efficacious. I plan to take Qiniang to have a look."

The two sisters walked into the Bisha cupboard while talking.

Chu Qianhuang took Qiniang to the small garden not far from the main courtyard.

The little maid, who had been smart enough, took out a butterfly paper kite and presented it to Chu Qianhuang. Chu Qianhuang then handed the butterfly paper kite to Qiniang.

However, Qiniang did not pick up the butterfly kite, but still looked up at the dragonfly kite in the sky.

Chu Qianhuang smiled very softly and said softly: "It turns out that Qiniang just wants to see the paper kite."

"Then cousin, can you ask the maid to hold her up high for you to see?"

With that said, she handed the kite back to the little maid.

Qiniang still didn't say anything, just looking at the kite.

To be honest, it was extremely boring to accompany such a silent little girl. The maids in the Hou Mansion secretly exchanged glances and felt that the seventh girl from Prince Jingjun's Mansion was really surly.

However, Chu Qianhuang was smiling from beginning to end, with no trace of impatience on his face.

She kept talking to Qiniang in a soft voice, and even if she got no response at all, she didn't care at all.

The sunshine in April is warm, half shining on the flowers and trees, and half shining on the people.

Not long after, a thin layer of sweat formed on Chu Qianhuang's fair forehead.

Seeing that Qiniang's face was also bright red, Chu Qianhuang gently pointed to an octagonal pavilion in front of her and said, "Qiniang, let's go sit there for a while. You can also see the paper kite from that pavilion."

She took Qiniang's hand and walked towards the pavilion.

Qiniang followed her silently, while the dragonfly and paper kite flew higher and higher in the sky.

Suddenly, Qiniang stopped and let out a scream.
