I Am This Type of Woman

Chapter 73

When Ruyi tidied up the jewellery box, she found Junzhu was in distress.

Junzhus face was still gloomy when Ruyi came with longyan and lotus seed porridge.

Junzhu, what happened to you? Ruyi saw her out of sort, it was very unusual for her not to speak out what was in her mind. Junzhu was not someone who kept things to herself, she rarely mulled things by herself for so long.

T/N – Just to note Ruyi sometimes used you with Ban Hua instead of nubi, like Du Jiu also sometimes used regular I to talk to Rong Xia.

Nothing. Ban Hua slumped listlessly on the table, not in the mood for the porridge. She had asked the figurine maker to make Rong Xias figurine ugly to tease him, but she had wrapped the wrong one and the figurine in the oil paper packet was her own likeness.

To think of it, she felt it was. well she still wanted her face.

Really no problem? Ruyi saw the food in front of Junzhu untouched, and she still said no problem?

Right, isnt it the Second Princes and Xie Wanyus wedding tomorrow? Ban Hua suddenly remembered their wedding should be about soon.

It is tomorrow. Ruyi replied, Madam said we are in mourning so we are not attending.

There is no point in going anyway, Ban Hua rested her cheek on one hand, Its all just you give me a meeting gift and I give you a return gift. This kind of functions is not interesting.

After a few spoons of porridge, Ban Hua shook her head, Ill lie down a bit. Call me at dinner time.

Ruyi helped Ban Hua to the bed. When Junzhu had fallen asleep not long after, she put the curtain down and tiptoed outside. She had two maids wait by at the inside door so whenever Junzhu woke up there would always be people to serve her.

The two little maids happily complied, it was an honour to be able to serve by Junzhus side.

Ruyi was just out of the door with the barely eaten lotus seed porridge when she met Chang-momo who had just returned from the Palace, Ruyi quickly bent her knees as a salutation.

Where is Junzhu? Chang-momo saw the room was quiet and Ruyi was carrying something outside, she guessed Junzhu was taking a nap. Guessing so, she lowered her voice and said, His Majesty let me bring Junzhu some things. As Junzhu is sleeping, I will take it to Furens place.

At the beginning Ruyi was worried that being the Grand Princess close person, Chang-momo would be strict towards Junzhu. The first few days after Chang-momo arrived, Ruyi was constantly on tenterhook, afraid of making mistakes and bringing troubles to Junzhu.

Fortunately Chang-momo turned out to be an easy-going person, she also never used her status as the Grand Princesss close attendant to be haughty by leaning on seniority. She had not only taught the maids some things, she was also very kind to Junzhu, like an ordinary grandmother indulging her grandchildren.

Is Junzhu having poor appetite, only this little was eaten? Chang-momo had known of Ban Huas habit of some little meals in the afternoon and of her smaller appetite, but eating just this much today, she couldnt help worrying whether she was unwell.

Ruyi shook her head, When nubi helped Junzhu to bed, Junzhu didnt have temperature or feeling discomfort anywhere. Perhaps Junzhu was just sleepy. Ruyi subsconsciously didnt tell Chang-momo that Junzhu wasnt looking right before then.

As Junzhus closest maid, she couldnt tell everything to everyone, even if it was Chang-momo.

Ban Hua vaguely heard some conversation in the courtyard but she was too sleepy. It was as if something was pulling her, urging her to doze off.
