230. Pregnancy avoidance
Cui Mama smiled, woman, means are important, but it also depends on whether there is that life: "With these three, the second grandmother has no worries." Just wait for the little lady to grow up and bring back a good son-in-law, and a beautiful and naturally happy. ”
He Jiaxian was completely relieved when he heard her, and seriously saluted Mama Cui and said: "Mama Cui understands the righteousness, and the reason she talks about is beyond my cognition, so the little lady will ask Mama Cui to do so." ”
Mama Cui helped her up and said with a smile: "The second grandmother is a blessed person, this kind of opportunity is no longer available to ordinary women, so cherish the blessings." ”
He Jiaxian looked at her meaningful smile, and didn't know what kind of encounter she was talking about, so he could only hold back, thinking in his heart that since she gave birth to a child, she had never dreamed of He Ranran again.
Does it mean that when you become a mother, you can no longer cling to others, but you have to become someone that your children can cling to?
She had thought about it many times and couldn't figure it out, so she had to give up.
Saying that, Aunt Mei sent someone to ask He Jiaxian to come over to speak.
"If you're pregnant, don't learn the rules, Mama Cui and I have already agreed over there. You can follow me to learn housekeeping. Aunt Mei handed an account book to He Jiaxian: "Seeing that winter clothes are going to be cut, you can see which expenses in the house can be saved." Now the uncle and the third master are just living on the rent of the shop, and they must not be as generous as before. ”
He Jiaxian took the account and glanced at it, and Aunt Mei said: "You go back to the yard to see, and I will come back and forth after deciding, and rest more." ”
He Jiaxian nodded, and Hongmei took the account to help her back.
As soon as he returned to the courtyard, He Jiaxian immediately remembered Cui's words, and it could be seen that Cui's grandmother liked her, so he sent Hongmei to ask.
Aunt Mei has always liked to be in power, how could she suddenly be kind enough to let her manage the housework?
After a while, Hongmei came back and saluted back: "Mama Cui said, Aunt Mei is old, and there are only so many people in the house who can take over the housework, and you are the most suitable to bear the brunt." But now in pregnancy, it is better to take it easy. If you accidentally cut someone's and save the maid's, causing others to hold grudges, then the gains outweigh the losses. ”
It's a subtle statement, but it's understandable. He Jiaxian understood in his heart that Aunt Mei wanted to test her and embarrass her.
You can't save money from anyone. People who are provincial will inevitably feel unfair and hold grudges.
This is to make her offend.
But knowing that it's a pot, it's not okay if you don't carry it. If she doesn't succeed, and then she will be wronged in the future, how can she let her rely on her.
Mama Cui is right, the woman who survives in this world can give birth and raise, her mother's family is strong, and she is smart, so she is not far behind.
After thinking about it for two days and eliminating many interests, He Jiaxian wrote down the places that needed to be reduced and returned to Aunt Mei.
When Aunt Mei saw that she was at the top of the list, she gasped angrily, but before she had a seizure, Hongmei had already run over and confessed in a panic: "Second grandma, the slave is at fault." The other copy you copied yesterday, the slave maid accidentally lost it, and at that time I thought it was lost in the pond and disappeared, but just now, the chief manager of Fang Fu came over and asked the slave and maid what was the matter? The slave and maid did not dare to answer, and told him to wait at the door. ”
Aunt Mei's scolding words choked in her mouth, and she couldn't go in or out.
I already knew He Jiaxian's mind in my heart.
She knew that whoever cut her expenses would make people unhappy, so she simply started with her.
also knew that she would definitely not be spared, so she spread the news first and called Fang Fu to come over to create public opinion.
This He Jiaxian underestimated her!
Aunt Mei adjusted her mood and called Manager Fang Fu in.
Sure enough, as soon as Fang Fu came in, he put on a high hat for Aunt Mei, saying that she was frugal and generous, and it was the blessing of the Fang family. He also advised her to subtract from her subordinates, and not to treat her masters harshly.
In that list, Tinglan Temple and Qinxin Temple are also listed.
Aunt Mei reversed her word, and said with a smile: "You only have that silver, and if you reduce it, you won't be able to eat." Where can you not be compassionate? ”
Fang Fu was grateful, and kowtowed several times on behalf of all the subordinates before going down.
Since Master Fang is gone, Fang Fu's power in the Fang family's housekeeper has also weakened a lot, but he has always been fair, He Jiaxian asked him to talk back and forth at this time, it was related to the treatment of the people of the Fang family, and he didn't dare not come.
It didn't take long for Aunt Mei to take the knife herself, and her "excellent style" of leading by example spread throughout the entire Fang Mansion.
It's just that if it is spread to other people's homes, whether it is a good story or a joke, is another matter.
He Jiaxian narrowly won a move, but he was shocked into a cold sweat.
In this way, she no longer dared to touch Aunt Mei's scales, so she found an excuse, said she was sick and hid in the house to rest, and then wrote a letter to Fang Qirui every five days, telling her the news that she was pregnant.
As soon as Fang Qirui's reply arrived, he sat back and raised the fetus with peace of mind.
After hearing this, Mama Cui just smiled and clicked Ran Ran's nose: "You mother, you are a smart person." It's a pity that I don't like to fight, otherwise, where will there be the suffering of being controlled by others. ”
Ran Ran opened a pair of big eyes, as if he understood or not.
Mama Cui was right again.
Because He Jiaxian is escaping from the world, and she is pregnant with Fang Qirui's child, Aunt Mei is a rat bogey, although she can get by on the surface, but she is really not having a good time in private.
When Hongmei once again had a dislike with the kitchen people because of a bowl of bird's nest, He Jiaxian walked in front of Hongmei with a slightly bulging lower abdomen, and poured the bird's nest on the cook's face in front of a dozen slaves: "I know that when my family treats me well, you will immediately neglect me." That's fine, you please her, and naturally you don't have to worry about eating and drinking. It's just that, people, sometimes do too much and make a lot of mistakes. ”
After speaking, he didn't allow those cooks to think about it, and immediately turned around and went back to Tinglan Courtyard.
Did she say anything? She didn't say anything. But smart people will naturally understand what she is saying.
"She can talk. Aunt Mei slapped the table angrily when she heard the report of the people below: "This is a curse on me." ”
Lu Yan said on the side: "The second grandmother didn't say anything." ”
Aunt Mei sneered: "She almost said that I would kill people." Haven't said anything yet. ”
Thinking of the auspicious thing immediately, Lu Yin couldn't help but shudder, and asked in a low voice, "She won't know something, right?"
"She couldn't have known. Jixiang is dead, and there is no proof of death. Aunt Mei waved away the goosebumps all over her body, and said to Lu Yin: "Tell them to be kind to the second daughter-in-law." What kind of climate can be achieved by polishing such small things?"
Midori agreed to the order.
Aunt Mei has always been generous, and she really can't look down on this kind of behavior that is a stumbling block today and some eye medicine tomorrow. She either doesn't make a move, or she hits it.
After Laba, He Jiaxian was five months pregnant, and Fang Qirui wrote back, saying that he would definitely be able to get home before the year.
For these things, He Jiaxian has never kept it private, and reported the content of the letter to Aunt Mei.
Aunt Mei was very happy, and immediately ordered people to cut new clothes for Fang Qirui, and arranged new furnishings for Tinglan Courtyard.
Pretty very.
"Now that you are pregnant and inconvenient, let her serve the second child. Aunt Mei commanded simply.
He Jiaxian accepted it with a smile and named the girl Ah Xiang. He said to Aunt Mei again: "There was a girl named Sydney in my room before, and later she married the second master's maid, and she recuperated at home after giving birth. After Jixiang was gone, she wanted to come back several times to do things......"
"Then let her come back. Aunt Mei agreed without thinking about it: "Anyway, I'm used to using people." ”
She sent one, if she didn't agree to He Jiaxian's request, it would be too unkind.
It's one thing to look unpleasant, but on the bright side, they are still mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Although she is not a serious mother-in-law, the second master was born to her, and He Jiaxian must be filial and obedient to her, and must not be disobedient.
Now that the entire Fang family is obedient to her, why should He Jiaxian confront her?
Aunt Mei glanced up at Ah Xiang: "It's so good, with them taking care of your body, the second master can rest assured." Ah Xiang, you have to be careful to serve the second master. ”
Ah Xiang nodded and smiled at He Jiaxian, revealing two small dimples on her face.
He Jiaxian also smiled, looking harmless to humans and animals.
When she arrived at Tinglan Courtyard, she packed out a side room for Ah Xiang to live in, and she didn't care about anything else.
Sydney gave birth to a son, who grew plump, and when she heard that she was going back to Tinglan Courtyard on an errand, she was as happy as anything, and repeatedly patted her chest and promised to take good care of He Jiaxian, and those demons and monsters came to take care of one by one.
He Jiaxian hurriedly said: "I asked you to come back, it's really Tinglan Courtyard that can't be busy now, Hongmei and Mengli follow me all day long, and Tinglan Courtyard lacks a person in charge." As for that person, leave her alone and treat her well. ”
Sydney, they didn't understand what He Jiaxian meant, but they did it.
Mama Cui said that in order to sit firmly in the position of the main mother, you must first be tolerant. But don't let people ride on your head.
Now she treats Ah Xiang like a guest, but no matter how distinguished the guest is, she is just a guest.
Everything else will wait for Fang Qirui to come back and make a decision. She just wants to live a comfortable life, she doesn't want to hurt others and be a wicked woman, so she can't sleep at night.
Ran Ran came back after learning the rules, saw Ah Xiang standing at the door, and asked, "Why didn't my sister go in?"
Ah Xiang was a little timid: "The second grandmother said that she didn't need me to serve, but I came to serve the second grandmother." ”
Ran Ran smiled and said, "Since my mother said that I don't need you to serve, then you can just rest." It's not that what the master wants you to do is an order, it's actually an order if you don't do something. ”
Ah Xiang seemed to suddenly realize, and suddenly made a salute: "Thank you Miss Xiao for reminding me." Miss Xiao is right. ”
So he went back to the wing room and rested.
He Jiaxian heard it in the house, smiled and beckoned Ran Ran to come in: "Your Aunt Yuzhu is here." ”
Fang Yuzhu is now pregnant with her second child, the first child is a son, with a big belly, and it is said that the due date is in the first month. At this moment, he walked over quickly, causing He Jiaxian to exclaim: "You be careful." ”
"Hurry up and let my aunt hug me, and if I hug me for a while, I will give birth to a beautiful little girl like you. Seeing this, Fang Yuzhu padded her feet, not letting her bend too hard, and a smile flashed at the corner of her mouth: "You have to be as considerate as you." ”
He Jiaxian is most fortunate that Ran Ran looks like Fang Qirui and is good-looking.
"Auntie, sit down. Ran Ran helped Fang Yuzhu to sit down, then sat aside, tilting her head: "Why is my aunt here?"
"I'm in a hurry, talk to your mother. Fang Yuzhu smiled, and said to He Jiaxian: "You little girl, you can be more durable than you, every word is fine, and you can handle it properly." ”
He Jiaxian knew that she was talking about what Ran Ran said to Ah Xiang, so he only smiled: "She is a native, she has seen a lot since she was a child, and she is naturally better than me." ”
Fang Yuzhu didn't know what she meant, thinking that she was saying that the He family had no intrigue, and smiled to show her understanding.
The fourth sister-in-law is pregnant again. Fang Yuzhu brought the good news: "She is very worried about you." ”
"I don't dare to go to your house anymore. No face to go. He Jiaxian said succinctly: "Don't mention these things again." It's just a matter of living in measure. Save her from getting in trouble. ”
"The fourth sister-in-law knew that you would say that, saying that she was not afraid of trouble. Fang Yuzhu smiled: "We are in everything." ”
"More is better than less. Now there are a lot of things in the house, and the second master is not there. He Jiaxian declined Fang Yuzhu's kindness, knowing that she still wanted He Jiaxian to interact with the fourth grandmother as before.
But there is a mother-in-law from the fourth grandmother, and the mother-in-law is angry and is a snake, but she is afraid that she will cause trouble again.
Fang Yuzhu sighed: "Yes." We are the family who broke the bones and tendons, although she is angry, it is not easy to say anything about me. It's just that the fourth sister-in-law will inevitably have to worry about your situation. ”
"Tell me what you're doing today. He Jiaxian didn't want to talk about this topic, and the other party Yuzhu was always outspoken.
Fang Yuzhu narrowed her eyes: "I only heard about this yesterday, and I still have to tell you after thinking about it all night." After all, they are brothers and sisters. ”
He Jiaxian's heart immediately moved, knowing that it was probably Fang Yuyan's matter, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the third aunt?"
"It's not the third aunt, it's the fourth aunt. Fang Yuzhu corrected: "If it is the third aunt and grandmother, you will not know if you are Aunt Mei? ”
The brothers and sisters she said were related to Fang Qizong and Fang Qiye.
"Didn't my father-in-law become an official in the court? It was said that the third aunt was so happy that he took a lot of silver to help the disaster, but he couldn't make up for it in the future, and the victims made a big fuss. The emperor is accountable, but he is afraid that he will lose his black gauze hat. Fang Yuzhu sighed: "Hey, how could a good Qing official get into such a situation." ”
Fang Yuzhu was not asking her, but talking to herself.
It's just that there's nothing to do, so they can only sigh for a while.
"Speaking of which, I used to hate Fang Yulu a lot, I felt that she was calm and light on the surface, but in her heart, she cared more than anyone else. But now that she is in trouble, she can't bear it. Fang Yuzhu sighed.
Does it mean that if you don't deserve your own wealth, you will definitely not be able to last long?
As he was talking, Sydney's voice came from outside: "Second grandmother, fourth aunt and grandmother have written back." ”
He Jiaxian and Fang Yuzhu looked at each other, and opened the letter in some surprise, and there was a meaning on it: to ask for silver.
