Chapter 31: Confusing
After Yao Quehua came back, he was quiet for a few days, and only locked himself in the room on weekdays, or embroidered, or stroked the piano, or held a book in a daze. Ning asked people to stare at her quietly, but there was nothing excessive.
In June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. The sun is like a fireball in Yundu City, and when you get up in the morning, the heat waves rush to the sky, and people are dizzy.
On this day, Yao Yanyu came back from the Chinese Medical Center, her body was sticky and uncomfortable, and as soon as she entered the door, she repeatedly instructed the maids to prepare for bathing.
There was a little maid outside who came in and replied: "Mrs. Hui, there is news from the Dingbei Hou Mansion that an aunt over there gave birth to a sister the day before yesterday. Today, another aunt gave birth to a brother and wanted to give it to her. ”
"Who's sir? Is it amber or glass? Yao Yanyu asked as she took off her coat.
"It's amber." The bead curtain was raised, Su Yuxuan came in with a smile, and said: "The third sister-in-law has already asked someone to talk about it, just tell me, and when the moon wine is arranged, these two children will be recorded in her own name, so that she can be regarded as a child." ”
"Yue'er has younger brothers and sisters." Yao Yanyu smiled faintly. It's really cheap Su Yuxiang, that scumbag, how can this kind of person have both children and daughters?
"Third sister-in-law, this can be regarded as seeking benevolence." Su Yuxuan could now understand Yao Fengge's thoughts, and a little bitterness added to her heart.
It is not a big deal for Su Yuxiang's concubine to have a child, but it is not a trivial matter for Yao Fengge to keep these two children in his name. At the very least, the Dinghou Mansion can't take this matter lightly.
At Yao Fengge's request, on the day of the child's full moon, the old lady of the Yao family, Mrs., and the Ning family all came, and Yao Yanyu and Su Yuxuan naturally came. Su Yuping gathered all the people from Dingbei Houfu, and invited the side branch of the Su family to come, and after opening the ancestral hall to worship, he opened a family banquet.
Although the Su family's filial piety has not passed, it is a major event to add a son and a ding, which means that there are successors in Su Yuxiang's lineage, and the Yingding couple must also be happy in the spirit of the sky. So Su Yuping was in charge, and a few tables of banquets were set up in the back garden of the house, and a few in-laws and close branches of the clan were invited to stay and drink a few glasses of vegetarian wine together to express themselves.
At this time, more than two months have passed since the funeral of Yingding Gong and his wife, and this matter should not be too public. Therefore, the number of guests is limited. In addition to the Su family, there is Mrs. Feng's family, the Sun family, and the Yao family.
The Lu family has now become a complete enemy with Dingbei Houfu, and they have a posture of not getting along with each other, so naturally they will not be notified of this matter. The other relatives and friends were not invited, but Han Entropy, the prince of Zhenguo, had always been good friends with Su Yuping, so Feng Shaoying quietly sent two housekeepers' daughters-in-law to send a congratulatory gift.
On this day, Yao Fengge got up early in the morning to be busy, the old lady and Mrs. Yao came over early, Mrs. Feng was busy with the banquet, and Yao Fengge invited the old lady and his wife to his yard for tea.
Su Yuxiang was very ill before, and after the funeral of his parents, it was even worse. After two months of recuperation, I can barely get out of bed and walk around. Because his mother-in-law came, he couldn't avoid it, and reluctantly came out of the Dongli room with a cane and Lingzhi's arm to greet Mrs. Song and Mrs. Wang.
Old Madam Song saw him look so sick, frowned, and said, "How did it come to such a point?" Which physician's medicine is you taking now? If it doesn't work, ask your second sister to come over and recuperate for him. ”
Yao Fengge reluctantly smiled and replied: "It's Old Man Bai's medicine, and after taking it these days, it can be regarded as a very effective test." ”
Mrs. Wang now looks down on this son-in-law, but she can't help but be a little soft-hearted when she sees him like this, and also advises: "You must recuperate with your heart, don't think too much, you are also a person with a daughter now, and everything should be let go." ”
Su Yuxiang had to agree, and didn't say much.
When Mrs. Wang saw that he was in good spirits, she said, "You are not happy, go back and lie down, we are not outsiders." ”
Su Yuxiang bowed down, said goodbye, asked the old lady and his wife to forgive his sins, and then helped Lingzhi back to lie down in the east room. Anyway, Yao Fengge is in charge of the big and small things in Qixiang Courtyard now, and he is just an ornament.
After that, Yao Fengge ordered the nurse to bring the two little milk babies over to show Mrs. Wang, and after Mrs. Wang took out the meeting gift for her nephew and niece, she asked where Amber and Liuli were. Yao Fengge glanced back at Coral, Coral whispered, and after a while, he came in with Amber and Liuli to kowtow to Mrs. Wang and Old Madam Song.
At this time, the idle people in the house all retreated, only Mrs. Song leaned on the couch next to her and slowly tasted tea, and Ning and Yao Fengge stood beside Mrs. Wang. Amber and Liuli were wearing plain cocoon silk dresses with big red smears wrapped around their foreheads, and they were helped in by the little maid, and they both kowtowed to the old lady and his wife to say goodbye.
Mrs. Wang didn't scream, but quietly looked at the two people kneeling in front of her, and after tasting half a cup of tea, Fang slowly asked, "You two have been in this mansion with the eldest girl for a few years, and you are still having a good time?" ”
Amber and Liuli's backs stiffened at the same time, and Amber took the lead in replying: "Mrs. Hui, grandma's kindness to the slave and maid is as heavy as a mountain, and the slave and maid will not repay her even if she dies." The slave maid only wishes to be a slave and a maid in the next life, serving her grandmother for the rest of her life. ”
Liuli also said: "The slave and the maid are too, if the slave and the maid have two hearts for the master in this life, they will be thundered by the sky, and they will not be able to be born in the future." ”
When Mrs. Wang heard these words, she smiled faintly and said, "I have heard too much about the scene, and I don't want to listen to it anymore today." My daughter knows that she is the most soft-hearted, and the rules on weekdays are just for show. Just like the two of you today, if this is in the Yao family, it is absolutely not allowed. ”
"But my daughter, remembering the friendship you have served since childhood, not only allows you to give birth to your own children, but also treats your children as her own, whether they are brothers or sisters, they will marry and have children as sons and daughters-in-law, and marry and marry. This is something that no other family can dream of. ”
"I'm not telling you two this today for anything else, I just want to remind you of one thing, don't treat the master's favor as weakness and bully, if you think that your brother and sister are filial to your master and feel uncomfortable, thinking that the child crawled out of your belly and has nothing to do with the master, or you want to borrow the child to take the throne, do something that deceives the heavens and destroys the ancestors, and murders the master, but you have to be careful!"
Amber is the slave of the Yao family, his father is now staying in Jiangning to help Yao Yanyi take care of Jiangning's medicine, his mother follows the Jiang family to take care of things, and his brothers and brothers also stay in Jiangning, although it can't be said to be very satisfactory, but among these slaves of the Yao family, they can be regarded as having a head and a face.
Now she thought that she had given birth to a daughter, and she would definitely fall behind Liuli, because Yao Fengge already had a daughter, and daughters were not rare at all, but she didn't expect that Yao Fengge would treat her daughter equally and record her daughter in her own name, which is a great grace.
So after Mrs. Wang finished saying this, she immediately bowed down and kowtowed, and said repeatedly: "Madame, don't worry, if the slave and maid have two hearts, they will die without a whole corpse." Even the father and mother will not have a good result. ”
It's not that she is vicious and takes her parents out to swear, this is really true. If she dared to be disloyal to Yao Fengge, no master of the Yao family would let her go.
Liuli was bought, her father and mother had already died, and on the day her brother sold her to Yao's family for twenty taels of silver, she broke off relations with her family. Although she has a son now, the third master sees that it is useless, and her son will grow up in Dingbei Hou Mansion in the future, and he will not be able to do without Yao Fengge's support.
Even if she has a heart, she understands that she can't turn her face with Yao Fengge, otherwise Yao Fengge has a way to let her die, and when the time comes, when she takes the broken mat and rolls it out of the mass grave, her son can know who she is? So she also hurriedly kowtowed and made a poisonous oath.
Mrs. Wang was just beating the two of them this time, but she didn't take their poisonous oath to heart. If these gambling curses are really useful, it will really rain red. However, it is expected that these two people will not dare to blow up their hair, otherwise, without her daughter's help, she will naturally have a way to make them regret it for half their lives.
While he was talking, Coral came in from outside, and Fu Shen replied: "Mrs. Hui, grandma, the second aunt and grandmother are here, and they are talking to Mrs. in the front hall." ”
The lady ordered Amber Liuli and the two: "You go down, so that you can give birth and raise, and if you take care of your body, your master will have to worry less, she is in charge of these chores alone, and she really needs you to help her." ”
Amber and Tears hurriedly kowtowed again, and Fang respectfully withdrew.
Then someone sent by the Feng family said: "The guests in front are almost here, the eldest lady invites the old lady and the aunt and grandmother of the in-laws to go to the front for tea, and also invites the third lady to bring the little master and sister over." ”
Mrs. Wang said, "Then let's go." ”
So Yao Fengge helped the old lady get up from the couch, and the Ning family followed Mrs. Wang, and the nurse behind him hugged Jinyue, Cuihan, as well as the second young master Su Jinning and the third girl Su Jinqing, who had just completed the moon, and went to the front room.
Yao Yanyu saw Mrs. Song and Mrs. Wang first stepped forward to say goodbye, and then hugged the little milk baby in the turquoise swaddling clothes in her arms and said with a smile: "Which one is this?" ”
Yao Fengge smiled: "This is Qing'er. That's Ning'er. ”
Su Jinning's name was given by Su Yuping, which made Yao Fengge very pleased. With Su Yuping's other eyes, I think that this child will have a better life in the future. And Su Yuping also fulfilled the promise he made to Yao Yanyi when he invited Yao Yanyu to heal the Feng clan at the beginning, if Yao Fengge had a son, he would look at it differently.
A room full of people, talking and laughing, very lively. But the baby in the swaddling clothes slept soundly. Yao Yanyu stretched out her hand and stroked the little baby's face, and said with a smile: "This child is so quiet. ”
Yao Fengge pulled Yao Yanyu and whispered, "How are you?" Still haven't moved? ”
Yao Yanyu shook her head and smiled helplessly.
"It's really not okay to change to a doctor, you've been married for more than half a year, this shouldn't be." Yao Fengge really cares, although Wei Zhang's friendship is true, it is always a pity not to have children.
"Don't be in such a hurry." Yao Yanyu chuckled softly.
"It's not so anxious, but I see that you like children so much, so I can't help but be anxious for you." Yao Fengge sighed softly, and wanted to say something, but was called over by Sun.
Seeing Yao Fengge leaving, Sun turned around and talked to Yao Yanyu, followed by Feng Xiuyun. Yao Yanyu was very strange, why Feng Xiuyun was the sister of Su Yuping's concubine Mrs. Feng, but she always followed Sun's side.
"I haven't seen my sister for a long time, and my sister is really busy now." Sun said with a smile.
Yao Yanyu also smiled slightly: "Sister-in-law said that I was laughing, I am also busy every day." ”
"My sister is really humble, if my sister is busy, we people are not waiting to die!" Sun said, and looked back at Feng Xiuyun with a smile.
"Madame is the most accomplished woman in our Great Cloud Dynasty, which is beyond my reach." Feng Xiuyun is now more than four months pregnant, her summer clothes are thin, and her belly already feels a little round.
Although Feng Xiuyun is a little wooden, the words he says are not shrewd, it seems to be a very clumsy kind of compliment, and it is the feeling that he doesn't know what to say. In fact, many people will like this way of speaking, as if this kind of compliment is the most sincere. But Yao Yanyu felt very awkward, the kind of awkwardness that couldn't be explained.
"The second lady's words really made me embarrassed. There is a saying that the inch is long, and the ruler is short, but I don't dare to take your words. Yao Yanyu smiled slightly, and glanced to the side, completely not wanting to say any more.
Su Yuyu just saw it, so she got up and grabbed Yao Yanyu's arm, and said with a smile: "Sister, my mother has a few words to say to you." After speaking, he nodded towards Sun and pulled Yao Yanyu away.
"I always feel that Aunt Feng's eyes are wrong when she looks at her sister." After Su Yuyu pulled Yao Yanyu to sit down beside Mrs. Liang, she whispered.
Yao Yanyu smiled and said, "I don't think so, I just think it's too strange for her to speak." ”
"She has never liked to talk and laugh, but now she smiles at her sister, and that smile always makes people feel awkward."
Yao Yanyu chuckled and shook her head, and said, "Forget it, why care too much about others." ”
Mrs. Liang pulled Yao Yanyu to say some homely gossip, Feng's mother and daughter-in-law Li came late, and as soon as she entered the door, many relatives and friends greeted her, and the room suddenly became lively.
Feng Shi called Caizhu again and instructed: "The guests have arrived, you go and ask the Hou Ye how it is in front, if it is good, go to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors first, and then go to the Hanxiang Garden for a banquet." ”
Caizhu hurriedly agreed, and the Feng family was busy with Zhang Luo's mother and younger siblings.
Because today's topics revolve around the child, Feng Xiuyun, who is pregnant, has undoubtedly become the object of everyone's discussion. Feng's mother asked her daughter: "Can you call the imperial doctor to come and see it, is it a man or a woman in this belly?" ”
Feng Xiuyun smiled on the side, and Mrs. Feng smiled: "I've seen it, and I said it was a male fetus." ”
Feng Mu was naturally happy when she heard this, and everyone next to her also said congratulations. Feng Xiuyun lowered his head and touched his stomach, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were smiles that could not be concealed.
Yao Yanyu didn't know much about gynecology before, but because the women around her were pregnant and gave birth to children one after another, and she herself was very yearning for children, so she looked for some relevant medical books in her spare time.
Now looking at Feng Xiuyun's radiant face from the side, it is obviously more ruddy and beautiful than before, it is said that the faces of those who are pregnant with daughters are better than before, while those who are pregnant with sons have gray faces and pregnancy spots.
Maybe this is not very accurate, but looking at Feng Xiuyun's belly, it is not the kind of spike that bulges, but develops horizontally, stretching her waist. This is also what a female fetus looks like.
So Yao Yanyu was very curious, the imperial doctor actually said that Feng Xiuyun was pregnant with a male fetus? How credible are the words of those stable mothers?
Yao Yanyu was thinking about it, when she heard Yang, the sister-in-law of the Sun family, ask with a smile: "I heard that there is another aunt who is also pregnant?" In the future, Hou Ye will be happy to be happy. It's just that there is such a happy event today, why don't you see another one? ”
The smile on the face of Feng's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suddenly faded a little. Especially Feng Mu, she sneered and snorted, and glanced at Sun Yang.
Yao Yanyu smiled secretly in her heart, no matter when or what occasion, this sister-in-law of the Sun family always can't forget to squeeze the Feng family. The overt and covert rivalry between these ancient women is really interestingly tight.
"Yo!" Sun Yang smiled apologetically, deliberately looked at the person next to him, as if he didn't know why Feng's mother was unhappy, and asked, "Did I say the wrong thing?" Upsetting the old lady? ”
Mrs. Feng hurriedly smiled: "The Li family has been uncomfortable these days, I told her to lie in the back." If my sister-in-law is looking for her for something, I will call someone to call her? ”
"I don't dare, I'm just asking for nothing." Yang smiled and waved his hand, and glanced at Feng Mu with three points of provocation.
The atmosphere was even more awkward for a while, but fortunately, Caizhu came in from outside and replied: "Master Hou said, all the elders of the clan have arrived, and they are ready to open an ancestral hall to worship their ancestors." ”
So everyone put this topic away, Sun Feng Xiuyun accompanied Mrs. Song, Mrs. Wang, Feng Mu and others to the back garden to eat tea first, Yao Fengge took the nurse to hold the child and Mrs. Feng to the ancestral hall.
Su Yuxiang also changed into new clothes, walked to the ancestral hall on crutches, and as soon as he entered the door of the ancestral hall, he was stunned, raised his head and looked at the blue sky, and forced the tears in his eyes back before moving forward again.
Yao Fengge, who was beside him, knew that he remembered the night of the mutation, the old marquis was in the ancestral hall, Mrs. Lu and Su Yuxiang knelt in the ancestral hall, and Su Yu'an and Feng knelt outside the ancestral hall...... That night was not only Su Yuxiang's nightmare alone, but also a turning point in the entire Dinghou Mansion.
Today, the ancestral hall is open again, and it has alarmed almost the entire clan, just to reach the ancestors and pass on the clansmen, he Su Yuxiang has a future!
In the back garden, Su Yuyu pulled Yao Yanyu and whispered: "Sister, look at Feng's belly, is it really a son?" ”
Yao Yanyu chuckled: "I don't have a clair, how do I know this?" ”
"Don't you know how to heal?"
"I don't know how to heal, and I'm not a jack of all trades."
"You said that if she really gave birth to a son, she would not be allowed to climb on the head of her sister-in-law?"
"I'm afraid it's not so easy to climb on the head of Mrs. Hou, right?" Mrs. Feng is not good at stubble.
"It's different when you give birth to a son." Su Yuyun was a little sullen, Feng Xiuyun couldn't compare to Amber Liuli, they were just slaves, and their lives were in the hands of their masters. Even if she gave birth to a son, she didn't dare to blow up her hair. But Feng Xiuyun is also the daughter of the Feng family, if she has a son in the future, how can she be willing to be subordinate?
"You, don't worry about it." Yao Yanyu patted Su Yuyu's hand and said with a smile: "There is a way that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, I haven't been to this garden for a long time, I don't know how the place where the two of us played the piano was like back then?" Why don't you go for a walk? ”
"Okay." Su Yuyu immediately put aside her worries and pulled Yao Yanyu to get up and go out.
"Where are you going?" Feng Xiuyun met Yao Yanyu and Su Yuyun from the door, and asked with a smile.
"Let's go over there and have a look on the rockery." Su Yuyun said, daring to add a sentence before Feng Xiuyun spoke again: "The road over there is not easy to walk, so you don't have to follow." You stay here to accompany a few in-laws, wives and aunts. ”
Feng Xiuyun's words were blocked by Su Yuyun, and he just pursed his lips and watched the two of them leave with a smile on their hands.
After the two of them climbed the small rockery hand in hand, Su Yuxuan wiped the fine sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, and sighed: "Ah, it's so hot!" ”
This road was very easy for Yao Yanyu, so she didn't even take a breath, just sat on the railing of the small pavilion and looked at the panting Su Yuyu and smiled: "You can't be lazy anymore." ”
"Huh? Why isn't my sister tired? Not sweating at all? Only then did Su Yuxin realize that Yao Yanyu was different from herself.
"So I'll just say it! If you are lazy at home every day, you can't run? ”
"Why!" Su Yuyu sat down unconvinced, looked Yao Yanyu up and down, and smiled mysteriously: "Tell me, did the general quietly hand over your kung fu?" ”
"Could it be that your General Tang doesn't know kung fu? He didn't teach you? Yao Yanyu said, and laughed: "No wonder, it is estimated that he can't wait to roll on the bed all the time when he sees you, where does he remember any kung fu?" ”
Su Yuxuan suddenly blushed and said, "This is also what my sister said?" You're getting worse! ”
The two laughed and played, and they didn't see the two people walking down from the rockery at all, until one of them said in surprise: "The third aunt and grandmother are actually here...... Ah, Mrs. Yao! ”
"Slave to Madame, aunt and grandmother please be safe." Two people came to the front and blessed themselves together.
"This is ......" Yao Yanyu looked at the strange woman, her eyes slid over her slightly bulging abdomen, and she roughly guessed who this person was.
"Minion Lee." Li Jiahui hurriedly answered.
Yao Yanyu looked at the woman's humble and polite appearance, and smiled slightly: "It turned out to be Aunt Li, sit down, why are you still climbing the rockery with your body?" ”
Dr. Liao said that the fetus has been stabilized and does not need to be stuffed in the room every day. Mrs. Wen Po also said that if she walks more on weekdays, she will be able to give birth in the future. Li sat down on the railing opposite Yao Yanyu, took a handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat from the tip of his nose and forehead.
Yao Yanyu saw that there were already subtle spots on her cheeks, which should be pregnancy spots. So he kindly reminded: "It is true that pregnant women walk more to help give birth, but try not to climb high and bottom, just walk among the flowers and trees over there." Climbing the mountain is too dangerous, and if you accidentally stumble, you will have to fall, and you will regret it if something happens to you. ”
Li Jiahui had heard of Yao Yanyu for a long time, and knew that this was the imperial doctor who even His Majesty the Emperor trusted, and it was her blessing that she could mention a few words to herself, so she hurriedly got up and responded: "Yes, Madame's words have been recorded, thank you, Madame." ”
Yao Yanyu said again: "You are pregnant, your wife must take good care of you, and you should not be just a stable woman by your side, right?" Listen more, ask more, don't listen to just one person. ”
Li Shi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and after suddenly coming back to his senses, he hurriedly said to Yao Yan again: "Madame's teachings have been recorded." Mrs. Xie. ”
"Okay, we've been out for a while, do you want to go back together?" Yao Yanyu said, pulling Su Yuyu to get up.
"Okay." Li hurriedly agreed.
A few people slowly walked down the rockery all the way, and the Li family said goodbye to Yao Yanyu and Su Yuyu: "The third aunt and grandmother and Mrs. will invite them first, and the servants will not send the two over." ”
Su Yuxuan nodded and said, "It's okay, you go back to the room to rest first." ”
Looking at the backs of Yao Yanyu and Su Yuyu walking away, Li Jiahui gradually smiled and sighed softly.
"It's been a while since my aunt and grandmother came out, let's go back." The little maid behind her hurriedly stepped forward to support her arm and said.
Li Shi smiled indifferently and said, "Qiao'er, go and tell Madam at night, this stable woman is too lazy, I want to change it." ”
"Yes. The slave and maid went to talk to the lady in the evening. The little maid hurriedly agreed.
Mrs. Yao, Imperial Physician Yao...... Thank you so much! On the way back, Li gently stroked his stomach with one hand, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
said that Yao Fengge took his two children to kowtow to his ancestors in the ancestral hall, and after Su Jinning's name was included in the family tree, the banquet was opened.
The male banquet and the female banquet are separated by a piece of reeds, although they did not invite the troupe to juggle, but because everyone was in a good mood, they were all close relatives, and they were also happy for the guests and hosts.
In the afternoon, on the way back from Dinghou Mansion, Yao Yanyu leaned in the car and fell asleep, but the carriage suddenly stopped and shook violently, so that her head almost hit the wall of the car.
"How did you get the car?!" Xiang Zhi immediately lifted the curtain and reprimanded the snail who was driving the car.
"Madame...... Someone stopped the car. The snail had jumped out of the carriage and grabbed the horse's reins.
Jin Linwei, who stopped the carriage in front, had already dismounted and walked to the front of the carriage, the jade plate in his hand lit up, and he said in a deep voice: "Imperial Doctor Yao, hurry, the emperor has an urgent summons, you hurry up and go with us!" ”
Yao Yanyu's sleepy insect suddenly dispersed, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the emperor?" ”
Jin Linwei never said a word, but arched his hand and said: "Don't ask Imperial Doctor Yao, you will naturally know when you arrive in Nanyuan." ”
"Nanyuan?" Yao Yanyu frowned, Nanyuan is the place where the emperor usually practices riding and archery, could it be that something happened to the emperor?
------Off topic------
After a small calm, an even bigger storm is coming!
Dear drops, are your monthly passes ready?
In order to insist on updating, Zhuzhu got up at half past five this morning to code words! Ahhh
I'm going to get tired soon......
