Chapter 9: The Past: Aunt Fuyun is pregnant
A few days after the Mengfu Flower Viewing Party, the people of the Xiao family quickly brought rich gifts to the He Mansion to thank and apologize. Although Xiao Bihua was somewhat reluctant in her heart, she had been trained many times by her father, mother and brother in turn, and even if she was unwilling, she had to thank He Wenzhao for saving her so that she would not be reprimanded again.
But because of this incident, Mrs. He saw that Xiao Bihua's second brother and her son had a lot of closer, plus the rich gifts and climbed the high branch of the Xiao family - at least for the He family, it was a high branch, and she was so happy for several days that she couldn't keep her mouth shut. The fear of seeing his son tired when he came home and hearing that he almost lost his life in the water to save people has long been gone.
This time, the result was good, He Wenzhao had a new idea in his heart about the person who occupied his body, and he settled down a lot, and all his thoughts were on raising his current body. In this way, the body really improved significantly, and the condition that had not improved for more than a month before was almost cured after about ten days.
He Wenzhao is fortunate that at least as a daughter-in-law, he can still be close to his father, mother and sister, so he is not too acceptable to this identity, and after his body is better, he is always called by his mother to do something to serve her. Although sometimes he also thinks that his mother is a little too much, but in the end it is his own mother who does not want to deny her thoughts.
Spring has slipped away unconsciously, and the original lazy atmosphere has dissipated a lot, and people have also been in a lot of energy. The weather is not very hot at this time, the cool breeze is quite refreshing, the summer insects and cicadas are singing at night, and the lotus leaf buds in the lotus pond in the house are just emerging from the tip.
After resting for a while with breakfast, Mrs. He asked He Wenzhao to accompany her to enjoy the scenery in the pavilion near the pond as a female worker.
In the past, He Wenzhao didn't think anything about serving and eating, serving and washing, but the matter of being a female worker was a little unbearable, even if he now inherited the identity of a woman, but in the end he was still a man's heart, how could he touch these jobs and damage his ambition?
He Wenzhao's stubborn mind just stopped when Mrs. He glared at him a few times and said that he really felt that he was a delicate character. In the past, his wife was also obedient to her mother, not to mention that female work is a thing that a woman must know, and if he retreats here, his mother will be suspicious, and he is afraid that he will not know what the person who occupies his body will do.
After thinking about it, He Wenzhao still picked up the guy and touched the female worker who he had never touched in the past and never thought of touching. I don't know how many times my fingers were pricked by the needle eye one after another, He Wenzhao was not happy that this thing was so annoying, and Mrs. He's face was getting more and more ugly, so he could only look obedient and bow his head.
"But after being sick like this, why can't there be anything? Or do you feel a lot more delicate when you are sick, but you are asked to embroider a sachet for me, and you make such a look, but it seems that I forced you? At the beginning, the matchmaker also said that the third lady of the Zhu family was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and embroidery maids. β
He Wenzhao's movements in his hands were slightly sluggish, and he lowered the broken hair that fell in front of his forehead to hide the look of surprise that flashed in his eyes, why did such words with a gun and a stick come out of his mother's mouth, or was it just for such a small thing? His hand had been pricked with needles so many times, and he didn't see his mother worrying for more than half a sentence......
"About some time ago, I was sick and put the female workers aside, but I didn't think it was a lot of regression." He Wenzhao raised his head and smiled at Mrs. He with some embarrassment on his face, and at the same time put all the things in his hand on the stone table and said, "I will embroider the sachet for the young master when I go back." β
Mrs. He took a sip of tea, and a "um" that was not salty or light was considered a response, but she didn't seem to even have the heart to say more than half a word to him, and the atmosphere in the pavilion suddenly became stiff.
"Madam, young lady, there is a happy event!"
He Wenzhao and Mrs. He in the pavilion did not speak, and when the silence spread, a grandmother came to the pavilion with a smile on her face. After saluting Mrs. He and He Wenzhao, she smiled so much that the folds on her face were all blooming, and she said this to them.
He Wenzhao was thinking about what was going on, but Mrs. He was far from being as cold as him and asked anxiously, "Say it quickly, say it quickly, don't hang my appetite like this." When He Wenzhao thought that Aunt Li seemed to have invited another doctor this morning, Mama Li had already told the happy news.
"Aunt Li is happy, it has been more than two months now, and the doctor said that everything is fine with the child."
When Mrs. He heard this, she immediately stroked her palms and was happy, "It's really a happy event, I've been looking forward to it for so long, but I can be regarded as looking forward to this child." Touching her daughter-in-law who was sitting near her, the smile on Mrs. He's face diminished by three points, and then moved her gaze to He Wenzhao's belly, "But I have never seen such an unassuming person, I haven't even seen the slightest movement for more than two years after entering the door, but I have eaten a lot of good things to replenish my body." β
Quickly looking away, Mrs. He stood up and said, "I'll go see Aunt Li, you can do whatever you want." Led Mama Li and no longer looked at He Wenzhao and left.
He Wenzhao sat stunned and couldn't describe what he thought in his heart, Aunt Li's belly was his child, but he was now his mother-in-law.
If the child in Aunt Li's womb is a son, then he is the eldest grandson of the He family, and the eldest son is a concubine, and I don't know if he will be criticized, and the person who occupies his body will do anything to his child......
Thinking of this, He Wenzhao, who finally felt that he couldn't sit still anymore, got up, and the maid Chunxu and Dongbai both walked over from outside the pavilion, and they were all startled. They had just heard Mama Li's words, but how could such a thing be a happy event for their young lady? Miss's face doesn't seem to be very good, what should I do?
"Where is the young master now? Hurry up and bring me there! β
Hearing his young lady's anxious words, Chun Xu hurriedly responded, "The young master should be in the study at this time, don't worry, young lady, let's go over to find the young master." β
He Wenzhao nodded, but he had already hurried out of the pavilion. Chunxu and Dongbai glanced at each other, and both of them showed a very determined look in their eyes, and quickly followed.

When the news of Aunt Li's pregnancy spread to Mrs. He, someone went to the study to inform Zhu Yuehua. Zhu Yuehua was quite surprised by this completely unexpected news, although she didn't have too much expression on her face. She always thought it was He Wenzhao's problem, and Zhu Yuehua had never been able to get pregnant, isn't that the case?
γDing! γ
[According to the memory of the host's husband, it should be his inability rather than the host's problem. People here seem to like to blame the woman for not being able to get pregnant? Isn't that stupid...... Who knows if Aunt Li wore a green hat to the host...... o(β―β‘β°)oγ
Zhu Yuehua couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard the words of the system, and it didn't matter if she said that people couldn't do it, but it was really full of malice to say that others were cuckolded. It's just that if Aunt Li's pregnancy is true and this He Wenzhao really can't, it can only be like that, in the end, Aunt Li has been in the He Mansion for more than a year, and it's really impossible to say what is going on.
When thinking like this, Zhu Yuehua, who was going to Aunt Li's yard, saw He Wenzhao's figure from a distance, and his steps were hurried, and he didn't know how anxious he was. What's in a hurry? Afraid that she will be bad for his children? Well...... Not necessarily his child......
"Young master, Yuehua has something important to say to the young master." He Wenzhao walked in front of Zhu Yuehua, had to soften his voice, and said to Zhu Yuehua respectfully, worried that he would not answer him.
Zhu Yuehua did not let down He Wenzhao's nervousness, and just said lightly, "What is the important thing about Madame?" I have something important to do now, so I have to ask my wife to talk about it later. After that, Zhu Yuehua had already strode past He Wenzhao's side without looking back.
He Wenzhao felt that this scene seemed a little familiar, and he couldn't help but be stunned, but he couldn't remember this familiarity at all because he had done this to Zhu Yuehua at the beginning.
At that time, it was just because he learned that Aunt Li was infected with the cold, He Wenzhao hurried to see Aunt Li, and Zhu Yuehua just saw him on the way and shouted at him with a smile, but not only did he not even get a response or even a straight face. At that time, Zhu Yuehua's smile was shattered, how could He Wenzhao ever know?
Seeing Zhu Yuehua stride away, He Wenzhao closed his eyes and sighed deeply, and stood for a while to figure out a little bit before saying to Chun Xu and Dong Bai that he wanted to go back to the room.
He Wenzhao returned to his yard and wanted to be quiet and sent Chun Xu and them down, but Chun Xu and Dong Bai did not obey her orders, and even let Xia Yu and Qiu Ye stay outside the door, and called Zhu Mama over.
I don't understand what they are thinking, He Wenzhao just frowned and looked at the Chun Xu people, because he knew very well now that these people were very dedicated to Zhu Yuehua's service, so it was impossible to do things such as persecuting him who occupied Zhu Yuehua's identity.
"Miss, Aunt Li's child, she must not be allowed to give birth smoothly." The person who spoke was Mama Zhu, she took a few steps forward to He Wenzhao, and said bitterly, "Miss has a gentle temperament, I know very well when I watch Miss grow up, but this time things are different, and I must not be soft-hearted." β
"If Aunt Li gives birth to a daughter, it doesn't matter, if she gives birth to her eldest son, how can Miss gain a foothold in Hefu in the future?" Zhu Mama didn't know what to remember, and tears flashed in her eyes in an instant, "Miss has suffered enough in Hefu, I can't continue like this, Miss!" Everyone else is a man-eating tiger, and if we stand still, isn't it equivalent to giving it to others to eat? β
He Wenzhao was stunned and felt angry, and wanted to angrily reprimand Mama Zhu, but when he looked at Mama Zhu and Chun Fu and Dong Bai wiping away tears, he couldn't say such accusatory words, and in the end he could only say, "I have my own measure in this matter." He forcibly sent them down.

Aunt Li's yard.
After sending Mrs. He and the young master away, Aunt Li sat on the wooden chair, holding her stomach with one hand, and closed her eyes, I don't know if it was because of tiredness.
A few days ago, I didn't know how she was snubbed by the young master, and she was deducted from her cousin's meal, and now the injury on her forehead is all healed, and her face scar has not fallen, and she has the first child of the He family...... When she gives birth to her eldest son, will she be far away from the position of her wife? She knew that she was going to break the example that her aunt couldn't straighten out!
After today, not only will the diet be much better than ever, but she will also become the most noble existence in this He Mansion, but this is not enough......
Aunt Li opened her eyes suddenly, her eyes flashed with a different light, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
