Chapter 34 Friends of Women
"Empress, how do you feel now? Is it much more comfortable than before?"
Zhao Huiruo, who was sitting on the edge of the couch, asked Queen Cao who was lying on the couch with concern.
Before that, about a moment ago, I used a piece of sanitary napkin carried by Zhao Huiruo, as well as a brown sugar ginger soup made by Zhao Huiruo, and a glass bottle filled with hot water and wrapped in silk on the lower abdomen that was hit by pain, discomfort and coolness. It immediately made Queen Cao feel much more comfortable.
Previously, Empress Cao needed someone to support her before she could get up from the Luan Couch. Now, after hearing Zhao Huiruo's inquiry, she immediately got up very quickly, half-sitted on the Luan Couch, with a smile on her face, and replied: "Ruoer, don't say that, you girl is really intent.
"My lower abdomen is no longer obvious, and it feels warm, especially when I use the long cloth strip you made below, the sensation of the sunflower water flowing is no longer so obvious, and I feel much more refreshed."
Speaking of this, Empress Cao suddenly thought of something and then asked curiously: "Ruoer, what is the long cloth you made called? Why haven't I seen it or heard of it before?"
Zhao Huiruo saw the haggard expression on Queen Cao's cheek disappear, and turned into a long-lost smile. She didn't want to refuse Queen Cao's curiosity, and it was difficult for her to refuse.
So, Zhao Huiruo had no time to think too much, so he satisfied Queen Cao's curiosity and answered honestly: "Empress, the long cloth placed below can absorb sunflower water is called 'sanitary napkin'. In the past, Ruoer had never seen anything that he had never heard of. It was something that someone else had just told me this afternoon, and Ruoer had never known about it before.
"Just just now, Ruoer was just learning and selling it. Seeing the empress's face was haggard and painful, Ruoer really couldn't bear it. She thought about trying it out, saying that it might not help the empress relieve the pain. Unexpectedly, these methods were really effective. In the eyes of the nurse, as long as it could help the empress, it would not be considered too much else."
Queen Cao, who was half sitting on the phoenix couch, became more and more curious as she heard it. At first, she was curious about her young age, but Zhao Huiruo, who was only 28 years old, grew up under the meticulous care of herself and Concubine Miao since she was a child. She had no experience in Kui Shui, and she had to rely on her to teach Concubine Miao more often, but now she opened her eyes.
Especially, she was curious about the long strip of cloth placed below. Not only was she curious that she could quickly absorb the scattered water, but after learning that its name was "sanitary napkin", she began to develop a stronger interest in the "others" mentioned by Zhao Huiruo.
"Ruoer, please tell me, who told you this? It would be fine if you didn't say it just now. After you said this, I really want to see this strange woman!" Empress Cao subconsciously thought that the person who knew how to alleviate Kui Shui must be a woman, so she continued to ask with interest.
At this time, Zhao Huiruo's opinion, with Empress Cao's personality, if this person was really a woman, Empress Cao would probably let the woman enter the palace and stay by her side to relieve the painful and discomfort symptoms of Kui Shui every month for the concubines and palace maids in the harem.
In addition, Empress Cao would also let the concubines and palace maids in the harem learn from this woman together and promote it in the Song Dynasty, so that the women outside the palace would also get rid of the troubles of the days of the monthly Kui Water, so that women in the world would no longer be worried about the monthly Kui Water.
But the problem now is that this person is not a strange woman as Queen Cao imagined, but a strange man. When Zhao Huiruo faced Queen Cao's questioning, she was a little embarrassed to speak up and dared not say it.
When Empress Cao saw that Zhao Huiruo was silent and reluctant to speak for a long time, she even aroused her curiosity. Then she asked Zhao Huiruo unyieldingly, and she was very tempted to not give up until she achieved her goal.
Seeing Empress Cao put on a look of breaking the casserole and asking the end, Zhao Huiruo felt that if she couldn't tell the reason tonight, Empress Cao would not only not let him leave the bedroom, but also not let her close her eyes to rest.
Forced to do nothing, Zhao Huiruo had to leave the palace this afternoon, telling Queen Cao almost everything that happened to her and Wang Hao, the secretary of the street, on Donghuamen Street.
After telling her truthfully with Empress Cao, Zhao Huiruo began to feel regretful, which made her feel ashamed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in. It was so embarrassing!
After listening to Zhao Huiruo's story, Empress Cao seemed very calm and composed on the surface, but she secretly marveled in her heart: It was really eye-opening. At first, I thought it was a strange woman and came up with these tricks, especially the sewn sanitary napkins, which were very practical.
As a result, I never thought that this person was actually a strange man, Wang Hao, the street chief who was mentioned by officials in recent days. This man was quite strange.
I heard that Wang Hao, the chief of the street, is young and handsome. He used to be a soldier in the Xiangjun army in Kaifeng Prefecture. He transferred to the street, a few years ago. He was just in his prime this year. He just had no idea how knowledgeable this person is and whether he is a marriage partner.
When I get free, I really want to meet this person. Maybe I can be valued by the government in the future, so it would be great to recruit him as a prince consort.
Thinking of this, Queen Cao comforted Zhao Huiruo without changing her expression: "Ruoer, there is no one else in this room except you and I. We, the mother and mother, can't hear some private words outsiders, you don't have to be so shy. Hearing what you said just now, I think that Wang Hao, the chief of the street, is definitely a talent, and may be promoted and cultivated by the official in the future!"
Originally, Zhao Huiruo thought that Empress Cao, who was usually dignified and elegant, would blame or scold her after learning that this person was a man or a tiny official who was a sesame and green bean, and would remind her to leave the palace in the future and not to contact a vulgar man who was thinking about women all day long, and would be punished by Wang Hao for this.
What Zhao Huiruo never expected was that not only did Empress Cao not blame her, but also praised Wang Hao, who had previously disgusted her, which was beyond her expectations.
After hearing Empress Cao's praise for Wang Hao, Zhao Huiruo secretly doubted in her heart: Wang Hao had just taken the position of the street chief for less than ten days, and the official family has often mentioned him in front of the saint recently. Now, the saint praised Wang Hao again. But for some reason, in my eyes, why is Wang Hao a lustful disciple?
However, Zhao Huiruo thought about it again. This afternoon, Wang Hao cleared the siege of Kui Shui that suddenly came to her a day in advance, and told her some precautions for Kui Shui for seven days, so helpful, so pity, and so careful and considerate.
Suddenly, Zhao Huiruo felt that Wang Hao is not as annoying as before, but rather has a little cuteness.
