Chapter 285: Aunt Qi asks for help from Madame
Zhu Yuanzhang strode in, saw the women staring at him, and smiled awkwardly: "You are all here......"
Guo Hui snuggled up, grabbed his arm, and shook her coquettishly, "Guogong, Aunt Qi is going to have a son, I haven't moved yet, you haven't come to my house for many days." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "She can speak coquettishly and charmingly, shy and timid, how can she have the arrogant appearance before.
"I'll go to ...... tonight" Zhu Yuanzhang agreed while beckoning the other concubines to get up.
Li Qi'er stared at him affectionately, her face full of surprise and excitement. Looking at Sun and Li Guihua again, although they didn't dare to invite favors as boldly as Guo Hui, their eyes were also full of silent requests.
Zhu Yuanzhang trembled and said uncomfortably: "Have you all had dinner?" ”
"Guogong is not here, how can we be in the mood to eat, I just saw that Aunt Qi seemed uncomfortable, Sister Sun and I came to talk to Aunt Qi." Guo Hui never mentioned the previous aggressive things, and disguised herself as a reasonable and kind woman.
The three girls were dissatisfied in their hearts, and they still followed her words, and they all knew that exposing her true face would only make Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy, and even affect the situation in the Guogong Mansion in the future, who would make the status of the family higher than them.
"Go get something to eat, I'll talk to you." Zhu Yuanzhang believed it and urged them to go back to rest, looked at Li Qi'er, who was still standing aside, and said, "Go back to the bed and lie down, don't be tired." ”
"Then we won't disturb Guogong and Aunt Qi." Several women looked at him resentfully, eager to tie him up and take him back to his room, but he gave the order to evict the guests, so he had to turn around three times and leave Li Qi'er's house slowly.
Li Qi'er twisted her hands, stopped talking, and hesitated to tell Zhu Yuanzhang about the succession that Guo Hui just mentioned.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat at the head of the bed, looked at her and said with a smile: "In addition to Madame, you are the second woman who follows me, and the second woman who gives birth to a child for me, God is really fair." ”
Li Qi'er responded obediently: "Thanks to the love of Mrs. and Guogong, I have a concubine today." ”
"It's also your own humility and sensibility." Zhu Yuanzhang took her hand and said, "Don't worry, when the child in your womb comes out, I will treat them equally like the three Zhu Biao brothers." ”
Li Qi'er took the opportunity to beg: "The concubine wants to raise the child by herself, is it okay?" ”
"Of course, you're his mother, you don't care who cares about him?" Zhu Yuanzhang is a little funny, the child is born with no one with his mother, and he is not an orphan like Hua Wei.
Hearing this, Li Qi'er settled in her heart, and with Zhu Yuanzhang's guarantee, she didn't dare to make any more crooked ideas for Guo Hui. She was born with joy from the bottom of her heart, and her plump cheeks, which had been plumped by pregnancy, were even more radiant.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very moved, if it weren't for Li Qi'er's inability to serve people now, he would have been eager to correct Li Qi'er on the spot now. Wanting to think about it for a lifetime, he was a little restless, and he said something absentmindedly with Li Qi'er, and immediately went to Guo Hui's courtyard.
Zhu Yuanzhang left on the front foot, and Li Qi'er got out of bed and asked the silkworm girl to comb her makeup.
The silkworm girl didn't know what had happened before, and said strangely: "Auntie, where are you going?" She looked at the sky outside, it would be bedtime time, Zhu Yuanzhang would not come again, who else would Li Qi'er show up?
"I'm going to see Madame." Li Qi'er instructed Hongdou to put on the gas death lantern, pack up and rush to the main courtyard. She thought about it, but she still didn't worry about Guo Hui, in case this woman was angry and plotted against her and the child, even if she killed Guo Hui at that time, she couldn't save everything. Now the only person in the house who can really help her is Ma Xiuying, and she decided to go to Ma Xiuying for help.
"It's all going to be the lamp, what is she going to do?" Ma Xiuying was very surprised when she heard that Li Qi'er asked to see her, but she still asked Luliu to lead her into the house.
Li Qi'er was about to bend down and salute, "Disturb Madame's rest." ”
Ma Xiuying raised her hand to stop her, "You're like this, don't you sit down quickly, if you have something to do, let Bai Ling and Fan He come over and say that you don't want to move around." She saw that Li Qi'er was only followed by red beans and silkworm girls, so she asked, "Those two girls are not lazy in your yard, right?" ”
"Miss Bailing and Miss Pink Lotus are both big maids carefully trained by Mrs., and with them by the concubine's side, the concubine is a lot easier." Li Qi'er thanked Ma Xiuying, and then sat down slowly, her lips slightly closed, and she wanted to say goodbye.
"But what's the difficulty?" Ma Xiuying saw that she wanted to say but didn't say it, as if she was worried, and couldn't help but take the initiative to ask. At this point, if there is no major event, Li Qi'er will never dare to disturb her.
Li Qi'er pursed her mouth, her teeth slammed into her lips, and a row of deep tooth marks were bitten out, but she still lowered her head and didn't make a sound.
Ma Xiuying is most annoyed by this kind of unhappy person, since she came to her, she just wanted to ask her for help, so she directly explained her intentions, why bother, could it be that she could solve the matter by covering it up like this, and in the end she didn't have to say it. She glanced at Li Qi'er and asked Hongdou and Silkworm Niu, "What happened to Aunt Qi'er?" ”
"Ask Mrs. to make decisions for your aunt." Hongdou pulled the silkworm girl who was still a little dazed and knelt down, and told Guo Hui about his stepchild.
Ma Xiuying's eyelids jumped when she heard this, and she couldn't imagine what Guo Hui had in her head, how could she make such a ridiculous request. Li Qi'er worked hard to conceive a baby for ten months, and she wanted to leave the child with a word, why? Li Qi'er didn't agree, so she cursed the child with vicious language, this shameless behavior was beyond Ma Xiuying's cognition.
At this time, Li Qi'er was already in tears, red beans and silkworm girls couldn't cry, even a few maids in Ma Xiuying's room couldn't bear it, and Xun Ying clenched her fists angrily.
Ma Xiuying handed Li Qi'er a handkerchief and comforted: "Don't worry, the child has been with you since it was born, and no one can snatch it away." ”
Guogong said the same, but the concubine was afraid of Mrs. Hui...... She said that it was a question of whether the concubine's child could be born smoothly...... "Li Qi'er's tears became more and more turbulent, and Guo Hui's curse pierced her heart like a needle, making her sleepless."
"This woman!" Ma Xiuying was angry from the heart, and Li Qi'er's worries were not untargeted. In the days when she was not in the Guogong Mansion, Guo Hui and Guo Ninglian were taking care of the housework, Guo Hui had more or less accumulated some contacts, if she really wanted to be unfavorable to Li Qi'er, it was not without a chance.
Thinking of Guo Hui's mother Da Zhang, Ma Xiuying's eyes lit up, the old witch did something crazy, Guo Hui is daughter may have inherited those vicious genes, such a thing can't be prevented. She thought for a while and said, "In the next two months, you will move to my yard to live, and you will move back when the child is born safely." ”
Li Qi'er was overjoyed, Ma Xiuying's yard was solid, and the servants only listened to her orders, if she could stay in her yard until she was in labor, there would be absolutely no problems in terms of safety, and maybe she could take this opportunity to meet Zhu Yuanzhang a few more times.
