Chapter 298: Evil Retribution

Lin Long was stunned, she didn't expect that Mrs. Su would come to visit her in person, and after being stunned, she hurriedly asked Rumei to lift the curtain and invite people in, after all, it was the elders who came, and she was not good at staying in bed to greet people, which was not in line with etiquette, so she struggled to get up and put on her shoes.

Seeing this, Ye Man'an on the side helped Lin Long, "Sister-in-law?" I'm afraid that her body won't be able to bear it.

Lin Long waved his hand, "This old lady Su is my stepmother after all, what do I say to her when I lie on the bed......

The two sisters-in-law were talking, and Mrs. Su had already been helped in by her daughter-in-law, and when she saw Lin Long's complexion, her brows were furrowed, and she was about to get out of bed to greet her, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up and lie back, since your body is not comfortable, don't force yourself to get up to meet my old woman, just lie down and talk."

Ye Man'an heard Mrs. Su say this, and hurriedly pressed Lin Long to help her lie back on the bed, "Sister-in-law, you listen to what Mrs. Su said, after all, you are a double body now, and gold is very expensive." ”

"That's right." Old Mrs. Su also stepped forward and held down Lin Long to prevent her from getting out of bed.

Lin Long's heart was weak for a while, but he called it "sick" to the outside world, and it was not good not to pretend at this time, maybe there would be rumors, so he had to lie down again. "Then I might as well be respectful, like an eyebrow, and quickly move a round stool to sit down for Mrs. Su."

Old Mrs. Su sat on the carved round stool that came from the eyebrows, held Lin Long's hand with one hand and patted it gently, "I heard that you and your mother-in-law are not very well, I still have a lot of good medicine there and use them to give you a good baby, but you have to take good care of your body." ”

Regarding Lin Long's righteous remarks during Su Ziyu's birth, Mrs. Su knew afterwards that she was very moved, and in that situation, it was difficult for this young woman to still have this heart. When her daughter gave birth to a second child, she wanted to enter the palace as soon as she received the news, but she knew that she was not very safe in those two days, and she was dizzy after only walking a few steps, and finally failed to enter the palace to accompany her daughter to give birth to a little princess, which she has always regretted.

Therefore, coming to visit Lin Long this time also means to thank you.

When Lin Long heard this, he smiled, "Grandmother Lao Yi is worried, and the illness of her granddaughter is sudden...... Cough...... I believe it will go fast...... Ahem......"

Old Mrs. Su hurriedly glanced at her daughter-in-law who was standing aside, and the daughter-in-law, who was about the same age as Ye Zhong's, hurriedly stepped forward to pat Lin Long, the little woman who could almost be her daughter, on the back, and said a lot of words about recuperation.

In fact, selfishly, she doesn't like Lin Long very much, after all, her sister-in-law should be a celebrity in front of Queen Su, but she let a little-known little girl steal the limelight, no matter how she has a relationship with Queen Su, no matter how this celebrity is, she can't be her turn.

"This woman must pay attention to raising a fetus at home, in the past, I got a few secret recipes for fetal health in the palace given by my mother, and made a lot of medicines, all of which are some years old, and the effect is very good, I will let someone send it to you when I go back." Duchess Protector said with a smile.

"Thank you aunt for her kindness, my mother-in-law gave me a lot of fetal medicine in the palace......" Lin Long hurriedly thanked him, he was not very familiar with the Duchess of the Protector of the Country, and he still had to say a few words of thanks politely.

The Duchess of the Protector said: "The mother gave me the mother's mind, you can call me a righteous aunt, this right should be the mind of my righteous aunt, how can it be mixed up?" If I had known you were pregnant when I had come, I would have brought you with me. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Long knew that it was not easy to refuse, so he had to accept it head-on.

Mrs. Su kept smiling, and as a person who came over, she also told some precautions, and then asked about the twin brothers.

Lin Long hurriedly asked people to bring his two sons over to meet people, and the twin brothers immediately attracted the attention of many people as soon as they appeared.

After sitting upright for a while, Mrs. Su took her daughter-in-law and the Duchess Huguo to leave.

Lin Long was "sick", so he had to tell Ye Man'an and the eldest maid to send each other off, this old lady Su was still good to herself.

When Ye Man'an turned in again, he saw Lin Long half-leaning on the bed, looking a little stunned.

"Sister-in-law?"

After calling a few times, Lin Long returned to his soul and said with a smile: "It's all sent out?"

"Delivered." Ye Man'an responded with a smile, Mrs. Su is Queen Su's mother-in-law, she naturally has to make a good stutter, and the relationship is also good.

The topics of women's homes are inseparable from those things, seeing that Ye Man'an looks good, Lin Long asked her in a low voice if there is any news on her?

Ye Man'an's expression darkened, and he shook his head, "I just left this day, so I shouldn't be pregnant." His eyes fell on Lin Long's stomach, "If my sister-in-law doesn't teach me a trick or two, I'm very anxious about this." ”

She has not been pregnant for a long time, and her mother-in-law Fu You didn't say anything on her face, but she knew that she was in a hurry but it was not good to urge her, and now she was actively looking for drugs to conceive a baby. If she is not pregnant next year, she must stop the child-avoiding medicine for the group of concubines in the backyard, but when she thinks that her husband is going to give birth to an eldest son, she suddenly feels congested. She didn't care how many children Fu Nian would have, but she still hoped that the eldest son would be born by herself.

Lin Long shook her hand lightly and coughed for a while, "This is not in a hurry, you can relax and believe that you can get pregnant." ”

"That's what I hope too." Ye Man'an smiled, "It's a big deal to let the woman in the backyard give birth, and it is feasible for me to hold it and raise it under my knees." ”

On this issue, she has thought about it whether she advances or retreats, the road is walked by people, and there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.

When Lin Long heard this, he only sighed secretly, no matter how he raised his belly after a layer of belly, he would not be intimate, but outsiders could not help him with this problem, and Ye Man'an could think so.

The two sisters-in-law talked for a while, and Ye Man'an saw that the hour was not early, so she hurriedly got up to say goodbye and prepare to go home.

Lin Long didn't stop her, how could this daughter-in-law be free to be a daughter, fortunately, Fu You's family likes Ye Man'an, otherwise how would she go back to her parents' house if she didn't have a solar term? Tell Rumei to send her out.

Ye Man'an fastened his heavy clothes and held the hand warmer, and then lifted the curtain and went out.

Lin Long closed his eyes again, and in order to pretend, she asked Aunt Xin to take her two precious sons down and separate.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw my sister Lin Qi and Erniang Lin Lushi talking beside her bed, and Erniang also reached out to tuck the quilt for her, and when she opened her eyes, she hurriedly said, "Awake?"

"Erniang, when did you come?" Lin Long stroked his hair and sat up.

Lin Lu was busy putting the pillow upright for her to make her more comfortable, Lin Qi poured a glass of water and handed it to her, "Sister, why is she sick when you are good?" Don't you know that Erniang and I were almost scared when we heard about it, and we were still pregnant with a child, why didn't we pay attention?"

"Sister Qi is right, what if this hurts the fetus?" Lin Lu's face was worried.

As soon as Lin Long saw their worried faces, he hurriedly explained the matter in a whisper, this pretending to be "sick" was hiding from outsiders, and she couldn't let her family members worry about her.

"So, sister, you're not sick?" Lin Qi's eyes widened.

"Shh Lin Long hurriedly glanced at his sister warningly, this can't be shouted.

Lin Qi hurriedly covered his mouth, indicating that he would pay attention.

Lin Lushi was indignant, "This queen mother is really domineering, how can she be a mother-in-law like this?"

"Erniang, this is a palace secret, forget it if you have heard it, don't mention it in front of outsiders, topics involving the royal family are never safe." Lin Long said with a stern expression, "If it weren't for the fear that you would worry that I was really sick, I wouldn't have told you these dirty things, so as not to pollute my ears." ”

"Sister, we know, how can we have a big mouth everywhere?" Lin Qi hurriedly patted his chest and reassured, and then sighed again, "The queen is the mother of a country, and she also has a lot of bad things." ”

In other words, no matter how high or low the status is, no one can live a smooth sailing life.

Lin Long also sighed with emotion, "Isn't it?" The harem is not a place for people, but fortunately, I have this relationship with my stepmother, so that if I give birth to a girl in the future, I can avoid the pain of entering the palace. ”

She would never push her daughter into the fire pit, it is better to marry anyone than to enter the palace, and I believe that Su Ziyu will not let her daughter enter the palace in the future.

Lin Lu's eyes were crooked when he heard this, "That's right, this daughter of the Marquis of Xiangyang, her status is very expensive, and it is indeed better to marry into someone than to enter the palace." ”

Lin Qi burst out laughing and glanced at the eldest sister's belly, "In my opinion, it's hard for you to have a son in this fetal sister, so you don't have to think so long-term." ”

Lin Long touched her belly, which was not yet pregnant, "Your brother-in-law always says that it is a girl, and I can hear that my ears are calloused, so I think it's not bad to be a girl." ”

Only God can manipulate the matter of having children in this life, and she is resigned to her fate.

Lin Lushi and Lin Qi thought about it, and they couldn't ask for it.

Lin Lushi said: "I checked the yellow calendar, the day after tomorrow is a good day, I plan to go to the temple with Sister Qi to incense, recently everything has not been successful, just ask the Buddha for a request." Stretched out his hand to caress Lin Qi's hair, "It's okay to pray for the two of you sisters." ”

When she thought of the two sisters, one was sad, and the other provoked such a big star as the Queen Mother, the more she thought about it, the more she felt congested, or it was better to go to Shangxiang to ask for peace of mind.

Lin Long didn't stop him, "It's been peaceful in Beijing recently, but be careful on the road, do you want me to send a guard to send you there......"

"Sister, don't be so troublesome, I'm not a princess's daughter, just take a trip to the family." Lin Qi said busily.

She also wanted to take advantage of this to distract herself, as soon as she thought that Huo Yuan was going to get married, her heart would be tightened, and she couldn't question him about getting married, and she couldn't bless him, at least not now.

Lin Long thought about it, and there didn't seem to be anything to worry about, so he nodded in agreement, and did not forcibly arrange a guard escort, of course, he had to give a few words of caution.

Lin Lu and Lin Qi heard that they all responded one by one.

Both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Ye family are pretending to be "sick", and the Queen Mother's life is also not good.

Because of the relationship between Princess Yong'an and the Seventh Prince and Su Ziyu, Emperor Zhu Yi didn't like to see this biological mother very much, and rarely sent someone to reprimand the Queen Mother, so that she could reflect on herself, remember to respect the old, don't do anything despicable, so angry that the Queen Mother almost vomited blood and fainted.

Although she was not really sick, she still pretended to be and asked the imperial doctor to prescribe a few prescriptions, so that Zhu Yi knew that his behavior made her sick and bedridden.

As a result, Zhu Yi just sent a eunuch to ask the Hou, and he didn't show up at all, this time it really made the Queen Mother depressed and really sick.

This disease is really sick.

The Queen Mother had frequent nightmares at night, always dreaming of people and things in the past.

This night was no exception, she was sleeping on the bed, but when she woke up, she saw the former imperial concubine who had killed her before sitting on the edge of her bed, only to see the woman looking at her with bloody eyes, "I'm so lonely down there, can you come and accompany me?"

"Ahh

She was so frightened that she jumped up like a slingshot, hugged the quilt and shrunk to the inside of the bed, and said in horror: "Don't come, don't come......"

Who knew that the concubine was crawling towards her with her eyes dripping blood, "What? Are you scared? Don't be afraid, the emperor is also underground, he asked me to pick you up......"

I saw the concubine with bloodied eyes reaching out to grab her feet.

"Ahh

She screamed again, waving her hands vigorously in an attempt to shake the man away.

"Niangniang, the Queen Mother's ......"

Gong E, who was on night duty outside, heard the sound and rushed into the dormitory, lifted the curtain, only to see the Queen Mother waving her hands and screaming loudly with sweat, Mama Cai boldly woke up the Queen Mother, and called "Niangniang" several times, and the Queen Mother opened her frightened eyes and looked at her.

"Where's Concubine Li?" The Queen Mother sat up in surprise and hurriedly grabbed Mama Cai's shoulders with both hands.

Mama Cai held back the pain in her shoulder, what's wrong with the Queen Mother?" Niangniang, this concubine was the concubine of the emperor's dynasty, and now there is no concubine with this title in the emperor's harem, isn't she already dead? Forgot all about it? At that time, the mother also gouged out her eyes and then broke her hand tendons......"

"Don't say it, you shut up for me." The Queen Mother said sharply, and couldn't help but think of Concubine Li's bloody eyes, which was even more terrifying.

"The mourning family should recite the scriptures, yes, the scriptures ......"

Mama Cai and the palace ladies glanced at each other, not daring to disobey the queen mother's order, so they hurriedly dressed the queen mother and helped her to the small Buddha hall to recite the scriptures.

This happened in the queen mother's bedroom, and it soon reached Su Ziyu's ears, which happened to be the moment when the emperor left the court.

"Chanting?" Su Ziyu repeated these two words funny, "She can think of it, she has done so many bad things, no matter how many scriptures she recites, it is useless." ”

"Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is starting to have nightmares now, are we going to make the next plan?" Mama Jin asked, when she thought of the Queen Mother's panic and sleepless nights, she felt relieved, it was in vain that she deliberately went to find the hallucinogenic medicine that someone matched, but she was afraid that if it continued like this for a long time, how could the Queen Mother be able to regenerate the incident if she was too busy to take care of herself?

"There's no hurry." Su Ziyu gently shook the little daughter in her arms, "Just let her have nightmares for a while, the good show is still to come." ”

If it weren't for the Queen Mother's step-by-step pressing, she wouldn't have treated her like this?

The evil things that the Queen Mother once did, even if she didn't know it completely, she knew it, who told her to enter the palace at such a young age? What dark side haven't you seen? Hates only hated himself for being too stupid before, thinking that Zhu Yi's love was unique, so he trapped himself and killed his three children.

The news that the queen mother couldn't sleep at night in the harem did not spread, but the queen mother's growing weight was visible to everyone, and the dark circles under her eyes were really unbearable to witness, her hair was almost white, and she was ten years older all of a sudden.

On the selected auspicious day, Lin Lu took Lin Qi to the temple to offer incense.

When the carriage arrived at the mountain gate, it was supposed to be a lively temple, but now it was very quiet, and there were even little novices guarding the door, and when they saw them coming, they said that there were distinguished guests inside, and they could not be allowed to enter the palace today.

Lin Qi glanced inside curiously, "Who is so pompous?"

The little novice said, "It's the Viscount of Zhou's family."

Lin Lu's face was disappointed, this powerful family loves to clear the scene as soon as they do things, isn't this a trip for nothing?

Lin Qi saw that Lin Lu's face was not very good-looking, so he hurriedly took out the post of his own sister and handed it to the little novice, asking him to take it to the abbot and let them go in to inject incense. Besides, it is normal for one temple to be open to two at the same time, depending on whether you have enough weight.

It didn't take long for the abbot to greet him in person with the post, and the female dependents of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion couldn't be lazy, and it was much more expensive than the female dependents of Viscount Zhou's family.

Lin Qi bowed with his hands folded, "It's troublesome to the abbot, we just poured incense and prayed for a blessing, and we can't get in the way." ”

"The poor monk will go in and arrange it, two female donors, please come inside." The abbot was busy and polite.

Lin Qi nodded, pulled Lin Lu and went into the temple.

The mother and daughter went to pray for the Buddha with incense, the sound of chanting in the distance came and went, listening to these Sanskrit sounds, Lin Qi also felt a lot calmer, and knelt there with both queens and prayed, silently reciting the content of his prayer in his heart, "One wishes the eldest sister to give birth to a child safely, two wishes that the younger brother is healthy and will shine in high school as soon as possible, and the third wish is ......."

Thinking of this, she looked at the solemn statue of the Buddha on it with wide eyes, and bowed again reverently, then straightened up and silently recited her prayer, "Three wishes he can live a good life and a smooth life......

Yes, even if you can't become a husband and wife for life, I hope Huo Yuan will live well, be a high-ranking official, and have a full house of children and grandchildren.

Thinking of this, her eyes glistened with tears, but she didn't drop the golden bean, and she was a little sad and didn't need to show it.

Lin Lu also prayed silently for blessings, and after a while, seeing that Lin Qi beside him was rarely quiet, he turned his head to look at her, and his heart was suddenly shocked, and he was sad again.

After a while, she reached out and patted Lin Qi's shoulder, "Sister Qi, I'll go see if the meal is ready, and I'll come back to you later." ”

"Okay." Lin Qi opened his eyes and looked at his second mother, and nodded obediently, knowing that the second mother was sympathetic to her.

Only then did Lin Lu retreat with someone.

Lin Qi prayed to the Buddha again, and then recited a scripture, then kowtowed, ready to add some sesame oil money, but when he touched the money bag and did not bring it with him, he said to Xiyu behind him: "You go and get me some silver, I want to add sesame oil."

Xiyu nodded hurriedly, turned around and went out.

Lin Qi was the only one in the entire Buddhist hall, she bowed again, but when she bowed her head, the pearl chain on her wrist suddenly broke, she hurriedly got up and picked it up one by one, this string of beads is Nanzhu pearls, each round and shiny is good, it was given to her by Lin Long, she has always been very precious.

After picking up most of them, she saw that one rolled to the Buddha's face, she bowed to the Buddha, and hurriedly went to the Buddha's back to pick it up.

At this time, Zhou Zhiqing entered this Buddhist hall that thought there was no one surrounded by the girl's mother-in-law, and the main hall in front of her was doing things, but she had some things that she couldn't tell in front of others, so she had to come in here and put on another incense.

Except for the close-fitting big girl, she sent everyone out.

Looking at the solemn appearance of the Buddha, she reverently knelt on the futon and kowtowed several times, and when she raised her head again, she was already in tears-6049172637620992663+dliineda+413->
