49. Chapter 49

"What did you say, why did your granddaughter-in-law faint?" The old lady was very anxious when she heard that Zhang Qiong had fainted, and while sending someone to invite Dr. Qiu, she was busy going to Qingfeng Courtyard in person, and she was not at ease if she didn't see it with her own eyes.

Jia Shishi didn't like this daughter-in-law very much, firstly, because of Jia Yu, secondly, because the old lady and the old man valued her very much, and she was warned many times because of this daughter-in-law before she entered the door, and thirdly, she also vaguely felt that the old lady was going to hand over the affairs of the house directly to Zhang Qiong. Since marrying the Zhang family, she has not had anything smooth, and sometimes she wonders if Zhang Qiong is a conflict with her.

The group came to Qingfeng Courtyard in a hurry, and saw that the girls and mothers-in-law in the courtyard were all orderly, and the old lady's heart slowly put down, thinking that Zhang Qiong was not a big deal.

When I entered the house just now, I heard that there was a lot of laughter in the inner room, so I didn't worry about Zhang Qiong's fainting. A slightly chubby mother-in-law in a blue gown saw the old lady walk in, walked forward with a smile on her face, and said happily: "Congratulations to the old lady, madam, the eldest grandmother already has a body, and it will not be long before the old lady will be able to hold her great-grandson." ”

"Really? Are you telling the truth? The old lady felt like a dream when she heard the news, and she couldn't believe it, knowing that she had been looking forward to it for two years.

"Old lady, the slave grew up in the medical hall, although this medical skill is not as good as the imperial doctor in the palace, but the ordinary slippery pulse can still be diagnosed." The mother-in-law also knew that the old lady was afraid that she would be overjoyed, so she emphasized it again.

The old lady approached the bed, looking at Zhang Qiong's already small face was very pale, very worried, at this time Dr. Qiu also arrived, the girl in the house put the bed curtain, and Jia Shishi avoided the blue yarn cupboard. The old lady felt that she had passed the age of avoidance, so she watched from the sidelines. After Dr. Qiu unhurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and put it on Zhang Qiong's exposed jade wrist, Fang carefully diagnosed the pulse, which was like beating like flowing water, like beads rolling in the plate, it must be a slippery pulse. It's just that

The grandmother of the Jia family has always been recuperated by him, and there is no major problem with her body, but it is too cold than ordinary people.

But from this vein, it seems that the cold in the grandmother's body is no different from that of ordinary people, and it is no longer hindered during pregnancy. It is difficult for the Jia family to ask for another master, so it seems that the person's medical skills are above him. There are really people in this world, and there are heavens outside the sky.

When the old lady saw Dr. Qiu's solemn face, she thought that Zhang Qiong had some other hidden disease. So he asked worriedly: "Doctor Qiu, what's wrong with my granddaughter-in-law?" ”

Dr. Qiu replied with a smile: "Grandma is happy, she has been in her body for two months, and the fetus in her womb is also very stable, there is nothing wrong with it, but you should be careful in the first three months, especially in terms of diet and daily life." ”

"Oh, if that's the case, I'll be relieved, but why did my granddaughter-in-law faint?"

"Grandma, a little tired, plus these days have been worried, depressed, I can't stand it for a while before I faint, the old man prescribes a few pairs of tocolytic pills, if there is something inappropriate, then eat." Dr. Qiu replied, and after speaking, he went out of the inner room, and wrote down the prescription for the fetus in the outer room, and wrote down some contraindications during pregnancy and inedible foods one by one.

When she was young, Zhang Qiong woke up leisurely and saw the old lady sitting on the edge of the bed, and she didn't care about her weak body, so she wanted to get up and greet the old lady and his wife.

When the old lady saw that Zhang Qiong was about to get up, she hurriedly held her down and scolded with a smile: "You, you are all a person who wants to be a mother, you are still so careless, you don't lie down well, and now everything is not as expensive as your body." ”

"Grandmother, what do you say, what is motherhood?" Zhang Qiong asked the old lady a little blankly when she heard this.

Seeing Zhang Qiong's ignorant appearance, the old lady attached her hand to her abdomen and said happily: "You are two months pregnant, and you have the fourth generation heir of our Jia family." ”

Zhang Qiong touched her stomach in disbelief and confirmed to the old lady: "Grandmother, is this true?" Am I really pregnant? After saying that, tears burst into tears, and she couldn't help crying bitterly, you must know that she has been under tremendous pressure because she has not been able to get pregnant these days, and even her mother asked her to prepare to carry a girl from her side and put her face in the house, but she was unwilling to do anything.

The old lady looked at Zhang Qiong, who was crying bitterly, and knew that it was not easy for her to cry these days, but she just watched her cry quietly, and saw that her mood calmed down a little, so she wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief and comforted: "This is already a happy thing, look at your little face crying like a cat." Now that I have a body, I can't be so excited. Otherwise, it is not good for the fetus. ”

Zhang Qiong was very embarrassed to look away, and said weakly: "Grandmother, don't worry, Qiong'er will pay attention." ”

"That's good, that's good." The old lady smiled, turned around and said to Mama Gu: "Mama Gu, you inform the account office to give each person in the house an extra month's money this month, and the one in Qingfeng Courtyard will add another month." As soon as the words fell, the girls and mothers-in-law in the house saluted and thanked them.

The old lady looked at the happy look of the girl in the house, and said: "Mama Tong, you are the old man next to the grandmother, and the affairs of this Qingfeng Courtyard have always been in charge of you. If something goes wrong, I'll be the first to ask you, old lady. ”

"Please rest assured, the old lady will do her best to serve the grandmother and the brother in the womb." Listening to the old lady's words, Mama Tong was shocked and hurriedly promised.

"Okay, I'm just talking, in the coming day, grandma will give birth safely, and the people in Qingfeng Courtyard will be rewarded." Beat a stick and give a sweet date, this is the master's means. The old lady saw that Zhang Qiong was still a little tired on her face, so she was busy leaving to let her rest.

On the way back, Jia Shishi said to the old lady: "Old lady, you see that the daughter-in-law there is now pregnant and needs to be cultivated, and I am afraid that this family will not make her tired." ”

"It doesn't matter, isn't there still Min'er, Min'er is not too young, and she will talk about marriage in another year or two, just let her hone and hone this time, but she won't suffer if she marries." The old lady knew about Jia Shi's plan without hearing it, but she just wanted to take the opportunity to get back the housekeeping rights. But don't wipe her face too much, and said: "According to Shan'er's thoughts, Zheng'er's marriage is afraid that it will be completed within this year, and I am also old, so I don't have much energy to be busy with Zheng'er's marriage, I am afraid that you will have to handle it yourself, I think you love Zheng'er so much, and I won't let him be wronged." ”

Jia Shishi heard that she was going to let her handle Jia Zheng's marriage, and she couldn't take care of the housekeeper and the house, although the daughter-in-law she wanted to marry was not her favorite, but her son was her favorite, and she thought of Jia Yu's grand wedding, she held her breath in her heart, thinking that Jia Zheng's marriage must surpass Jia Yu.

Zhang Qiong was pregnant, and for a while the entire Rongguo Mansion knew about it, Jia Yu came back from an errand, and before he entered the gate, the little girl stepped forward to congratulate him and said: "Congratulations uncle, congratulations uncle, grandma is two months pregnant." ”

When Jia Yu heard this, he was immediately stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he hurriedly pulled Daoxi's little servant and asked, "What you said is true, grandma is pregnant?" ”

Seeing Jia Yu being so rarely stunned, the little girl smiled and congratulated Jia Yu: "Uncle, it has been spread all over this house, the eldest grandmother is pregnant, how dare the slave lie to you." ”

Jia Yu listened to the words of the little maid, hurriedly took off the money bag on his body and threw it to him as a reward, and ran towards Qingfeng Courtyard like a wind, running and muttering, "I'm going to be a father, I'm going to be a father!" Just as Jia Yu ran all the way from the gate to Qingfeng Courtyard, looking at the happy girl in the courtyard, he didn't dare to enter the house, for fear that this qiē was his fantasy, and hesitated at the door for a long time, and the girl in the courtyard pursed her lips and snickered when she saw Jia Yu's stunned and strong people.

After a long while, Jia Yu slowly calmed down from the surprise. coughed lightly, and when he left the inner room, he saw Zhang Qiong half-leaning on the bed, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her expression was gentle, and her hand gently stroked her stomach, which was so satisfied. He had never seen such a Zhang Qiong, but her little face was a little messy but had a different kind of beauty, which made Jia Yu's heart like a ball of warm water, which was very comfortable.

Zhang Qiong turned around and saw Jia Yu standing at the door in a daze, looking at her stupidly. said funny: "Why are you so happy that you can't be stupid, you don't come in, and you don't let those girls see jokes." ”

Jia Yu sat down in front of the bed at a loss, sat on the edge of the bed cautiously, didn't even dare to touch Zhang Qiong, and asked cautiously, "He'an, this is true, we have a child?" ”

Zhang Qiong smiled and nodded, "Well, husband, do you like a son or a daughter." ”

Jia Yu hurriedly replied: "My sons and daughters are all our children, and I like them all." After speaking, he thought about it again: "It's just that my mother is old, and she has been looking forward to this child for a long time. ”

Zhang Qiong only made sense of what Jia Yu said, but she was worried that this baby was a daughter, so she worried: "If you give birth to a daughter, what can you do?" After speaking, he looked up at Jia Yu.

Jia Yu looked at his worried wife, and hurriedly comforted: "It's a daughter, and grandmother will be happy." Grandmother is not the kind of person who values sons over daughters, you see how much grandmother loves Sister Min, it would be good if she had a daughter as smart as Sister Min. ”

Listening to Jia Yu's assurance, Zhang Qiong's heart settled down slightly.

When Jia Daishan returned home, he wanted to go to the main courtyard to discuss Jia Zheng's marriage with Jia Shi's family, but as soon as he returned home, he heard Jia Quan say that his eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant, and he didn't care that there were still servants around him, so he laughed happily, he was not as anxious about his grandson as the old lady, and whether it was the Jia family or the Zhang family, they were all prosperous, and he was not worried that his daughter-in-law would not be able to give birth to grandchildren. And he also had Jia Yu three years after he got married, and he waited for it with peace of mind.

Now that he heard that his daughter-in-law had a body, the joy in his heart made him understand that he had been looking forward to this child for a long time like his mother, but he was usually busy with other things and didn't notice it. Now there is more excitement in my heart than when I learned that there was Jia Yu, is this what others often call the next generation.

Jia Quan looked at the old man's happy look, and he was also happy, the Jia family has a successor, which is also good news for them, the slaves who have children in the family, after all, they are all dependent on the Jia family to survive, but if the Jia family is good, they will have a better life.

Jia Daishan came to the main courtyard, firstly for Jia Zheng's marriage, and secondly, to ask about his daughter-in-law's physical condition, after all, he is a father-in-law, even if he cares about his daughter-in-law and the fetus in his womb, he can't go directly to Qingfeng to ask in person, and he can only learn indirectly through Jia Shi's family.

Seeing that Jia Shishi was not busy asking her to salute, he asked directly: "How is the daughter-in-law, what did the doctor say?" ”

Jia Shishi asked Zhang Qiong about the situation as soon as he came up, and his heart disappeared without a trace because of the joy of his arrival, and said with a forced smile: "Doctor Qiu said that adults and children are very good, and the master will be able to hold his grandson in March next year." ”

Jia Daishan saw that she smiled reluctantly, and answered perfunctorily, and he was not happy about Zhang Qiong's pregnancy, and he was very unhappy in his heart, but there was such a big happy event in the house, and he didn't want to argue with him, so he turned to talk about Jia Zheng's marriage: "Zheng'er's marriage, I have thought about it, it is best to get married at the end of the year, after all, Zheng'er is not small, and the girl of the Wang family can also get married." ”

Jia Shishi frowned and calculated the time, "Is it too hurried to get married at the end of the year, there are less than five months to celebrate the New Year." The two families are looking for Gu Li Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Najib, inviting dates, and greeting in person, and these six ceremonies must be walked over again, so that they will not be rude. Besides, it took more than two years for Yu'er to go from proposing marriage to giving a big gift. ”

Jia Daishan heard her mention Jia Yu, and her unhappy heart was even less irritable, so she didn't understand why every time she talked about Jia Zheng, she had to compare with Jia Yu. Impatiently said: "You don't want to think about it, Yu'er was only fifteen when he proposed marriage, and now Zheng'er is seventeen, wait for another two years, do you plan to wait until he is nineteen to get married?" Okay, don't talk about it, Zheng'er's marriage is decided, you will discuss this matter with Mrs. Wang in the near future, although the time is a little tighter, but there will be no shortage of etiquette in our Jia family. ”

Seeing that there was no place to turn around this matter, Jia Shishi was not dwelling on this matter, and put forward his previous plan: "Master, I see that now that the eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant, Yu'er is resting in Qingfeng Courtyard, I am afraid that it is not in accordance with the rules." I thought about letting Yu'er move to the study for the next few months. Wait for my daughter-in-law to give birth and then move back. ”

Jia Daishan thought about it, as if there was such a rule, and said: "You can do this thing, but let's talk to my mother in advance." ”

Seeing that Jia Daishan agreed with her idea, he was very happy in his heart, and pretended to be worried: "The girls around Yu'er were all released from the house by the old lady before the wedding, and now there is no one around me who knows cold and hot except for her daughter-in-law, so I'm afraid it's not good-looking." ”

For the room, Jia Daishan and the like are not good at it, that is, there are three or four famous aunts around him now, after Jia Shishi mentioned this, he also felt that there were fewer people on his son's side, so he said: "You just look at the arrangement of two girls to send over." But when I thought of Aunt Liu's matter, if the family has a concubine, it is not a good thing, and this dispute between the concubines can also mess up the family, so I added, "People should be poured medicine before they are sent over, and our family does not need concubines." ”

The girl who listened to the conversation of the old lady in the house, thought carefully in her heart, and wanted to wait for the old man to leave, but fortunately, the wife was ingenious and could become the uncle's roommate, but I didn't expect the last sentence of the old man to dispel all their thoughts, if there is no son and half daughter in this big house, what is the use of more gold, silver and jewelry, it is better to have a capable steward.

Jia Shishi smiled and nodded, she was also disgusted with the concubine and the concubine, so she did not object to Jia Daishan's dosing, and turned the girl around her again but did not find a suitable person, and I don't know how she thought of He Rou who was sent to Zhuang brought back by Jia Zheng, "For a while, I really didn't have a suitable candidate, before, Zheng'er didn't bring back a girl, I heard that she was also literate and literate, and she also had three points of similarity with her daughter-in-law. ”

Jia Daishan looked at Jia Shishi, who was happy, and for the first time felt that she really didn't understand anything wrong, how could she come up with such an idea and give that He Rou to pardon, so how do you want their brothers to get along in the future, is it true that I want to see if Jia pardon Jia Zheng's brothers can't get along. Angry and dejected: "What are you thinking, who gave you the idea, do you want to pardon and Zheng'er and not be enemies, aren't you willing?" Or are you too comfortable in the house and have to make something to be comfortable? In the future, you don't have to worry about the pardon, anyway, you haven't taken care of it again, and it's not bad this time or twice. I warn you that from now on, it is okay to say that if you cause trouble, don't be your wife, don't live in the main courtyard, and enter the Buddha hall to worship the Buddha and pray for our Jia family is also a merit for you. After saying that, he left angrily.

Jia Shishi was confused by Jia Daishan's angry shouting, she didn't understand what she said just now, how could she mention that He Rou Jia Daishan would be so angry, but this is Jia Yu's business, what does it have to do with Zheng'er, she didn't understand it for a while, she was full of anger and had nowhere to go, so angry that she smashed the tea bowl on the table to the ground, and the girls in the house stood tremblingly with their heads bowed, for fear of being made a mistake by Mrs. to get angry.

The old lady was happily rummaging through her private room to see if there was anything suitable to send to Qingfeng Courtyard. Just found a boxwood pomegranate ornament. The aroma of boxwood is very light, very light, elegant and not vulgar, pomegranate means more children and more blessings, this is just right for Zhang Qiong.

Before she finished choosing, she saw her son coming angrily and asked curiously, "Where did you get angry?" ”

Jia Daishan told what happened in Jia Shi's just now, and at the same time expressed his worries: "Mother, you said that if she and Yu'er have been so weak, if I am still able to suppress her, if I am gone, how should she and Yu'er get along?" ”

mentioned the matter between Jia Yanyu and Jia Shi's family, the old lady lost her interest just now, and regretted: "If you want to say that this thing is like this now, it is also to blame me, if I didn't take Yu'er to my side to raise it back then, I think their mother and son would not be like this now, they are about to become enemies." The more the old lady spoke, the more sad she became.

"Mother, how can I blame you? Most of the families act like this, and it is common for the older generation to hold their grandchildren by their side, but there is no one like her. ”

"It's useless to talk about it so far, let's take one step at a time, and nothing big will happen if Yu'er can stand." The old lady said helplessly, "Okay, there is such a big happy event in the family today, don't say something that you don't have, help me see what good things to give to my granddaughter-in-law." ”

Jia Daishan was also very happy when he mentioned Zhang Qiong, looking at the kang table full of things, and thinking about what he could give to his daughter-in-law and future grandson in his treasury.

The Jia family is jubilant, but the Wang family is not happy. There is no other reason, just because Mrs. Wang learned that the person the Xue family wants to marry is actually her favorite young queen Huan, and she had a quarrel with Wang Hao for this matter, but the result was not as she wanted. It stands to reason that Wang Huan and Wang Huan are both born to her, but Wang Huan was raised by the old lady of the Wang family since she was a child, and although Wang Huan is not the same as falling grass, she is also more distressed by Wang Huan.

Afterwards, she also checked why Mrs. Xue fell in love with Huan'er, and the result of this investigation really made her unacceptable, and her other daughter actually calculated her favorite Huan'er.

It turned out that Wang Zhen's grandmother was the wife of the big housekeeper Wang Fu, so she knew about the marriage of King Xue's two families earlier than others, and the eldest girl in the house had already married, so one of the remaining two girls wanted to marry into the Jia family, and the other could only enter the Xue family. This Jia family and the Xue family even know that she, an ignorant minion, knows that the Jia family is a hundred times stronger than the Xue family, and the second girl is her grandmother, how can she not plan for her. Therefore, she reported this matter to Wang Jian and asked him to make arrangements as soon as possible. When Wang Huan came back from the Jia family, he also knew that the Jia family preferred his sister Wang Huan, but she could decide the family affairs of this child.
