Chapter 309: Pregnancy
"How long has she been kneeling there?"
"It's been two hours, haven't you?"
The people on the gatehouse of the Lanyuan gate couldn't help but mutter, and then their eyes moved to the woman kneeling outside the door again. She had been kneeling for four hours, and she was no longer as glamorous as before, her carefully combed bun was slightly disheveled, and her beautiful face like white jade also appeared haggard, and the gorgeous splendid dress was entrusted to the earth, but it had a particularly touching charm. Xue Cuiyi was originally a gentle and bright beauty, and she had persisted for so long, so the people in the concierge were inevitably a little soft-hearted and had a little pity.
"Madam, don't you just tell her to kneel and ignore her?" Chunwei heard the news from the concierge, and then glanced at Yin Susu, who was sitting and lying there leisurely, flipping through a document.
"Do you have sympathy for her?" Yin Susu put down the thin booklet in his hand and said lightly.
"Not really." Chunwei said honestly, "I know what kind of person she is, so naturally I won't waste sympathy on meaningless people." But since that's the case, why didn't you send her away, but let it go? ”
Yin Susu curled the corners of her lips slightly, with a little carelessness. "You know, I hate it when people persecute me, so wouldn't it be good to let her suffer some sin first?"
"But it's really possible for her to have the young master's child, right?" Chunwei hesitated for a moment and said, "Moreover, if she kneels down like this, her subordinates will also have objections, I'm afraid that the rumors outside will not sound good about you." And since she has bad intentions, she can't really take her to Lan Yuan. ”
"Why not?" Yin Susu's expression and words indicated that she planned to do so.
Chunwei immediately objected. "You don't know who she is, how could she let a poisonous snake in, and what if she really murders you?"
"Didn't you hear the dog being beaten when the door was closed?" Yin Susu obviously has her own opinion. "And I can't waste this good head that Yu Ya created for me."
"No, I can't. It's still too risky, your safety is the most important, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case! Chunwei knew what Lin Yu had said to Na Yan before, and she hesitated for a moment but still objected, "And they may not be fooled, in that case, it will be more likely to murder you." ”
Yin Susu smiled, "And I won't be in Lan Yuan for the next two days." So you don't have to worry too much. ”
"Are you going to the palace?" Chunwei asked. "Aside from this, I haven't heard anything important lately."
"No, I'm going to go out of Beijing." Yin Susu was half lying on the bed. beckoned Chunwei to come over, gave a few words in his ear, and then said with a smile, "Keep it a secret from the outside world." I'll leave that to a few of you. ”
Chunwei's expression changed a few times. In the end, he didn't say anything against it, but he still muttered, "I think you're still too risky, Miss, don't you look a little anxious to succeed soon." ”
"Zhiludao, you are thinking about me in your heart." Looking at the maid ring who had been by her side, Yin Susu's eyebrows softened, "I always have to live to see the end of this." ”
"Well, I can't talk about you." Chunwei sighed. smiled, she was originally a girl with a warm smile like spring. "In that case, then I'll send a message to the door."
A quarter of an hour later, outside the Lan Yuan Gate.
"Miss Xue, Madame is willing to see you." A steward-looking man dressed in dark blue satin stood in front of Xue Cuiyi with a faint expression, "Please come with me." ”
Xue Cuiyi was already kneeling dizzy at this time, and when she heard this, she raised her head, her eyes were a little dazed. To say that she is in the skin and meat business after all, it can be regarded as high-intensity work, but in fact, her body is not so bad, but she is really pregnant, so she is relatively delicate.
When the steward saw that she was on the ground with her hands propped up, and did not get up once, he frowned, and called for two men to help her up.
"I don't know if Miss Xue needs a sedan chair to carry you in?" The steward saw that she was already able to stand firm, and said lightly.
Xue Cuiyi was born in the Qinglou Oiran, and she was used to seeing the height of her eyebrows, and she clearly noticed a faint trace of disdain and disgust in the other party's eyes, and said with a wry smile, "Which card am I the person on the card?" Is it qualified to sit in a sedan chair and let people in? ”
It's good that you know the way, although the steward didn't speak, such a message flashed in his eyes, Xue Cuiyi saw his expression, and became more softened, ignoring his sore knees and tired body, and walked behind.
In fact, she miscalculated today, but she guessed Yin Susu's mind wrongly. After all, judging from the past, Yin Susu is extremely doting on Yin Xing's younger brother, not to mention the cost of providing gold and silver on weekdays, Yin Xing also helps settle it when he goes to the Qinglou. According to the news they inquired, Yin Xing only got a painless punishment for copying books, for which Yin Susu also offended Lin Yu, a righteous sister who has always been good friends, and Yu Wenqing, the county lord of Ning and the county lord of the Qi Palace, and even the King of Qi had a lot of complaints about her behavior.
It is rumored in the capital that Yin Susu has always liked children because she has not had children for many years after marriage. This in his belly is Yin Xing's first and only heir bloodline, to be precise, the only third-generation bloodline of the Yin family, how could Yin Susu not pay attention to it?
Since you pay attention to it, it is impossible to toss yourself too much, you must know that kneeling for three months of the first pregnancy is very likely to have a miscarriage, at least it is likely to cause fetal instability. Xue Cuiyi had such a judgment, so she adopted the method of kneeling and begging, thinking that Yin Susu should not toss herself much.
No matter how you look at it, it is what she deduced, but she unfortunately guessed wrong, and she began to regret it after kneeling for less than an hour, but it was not easy to withdraw immediately, so she had to interpret the image of affection and bitterness to the end. It was only when she knelt for about two and a half hours that she saw the person Yin Susu had led her in.
Then in order to maintain her image, she didn't ask for a sedan chair, but she regretted it soon, Lan Yuan's place is really not small, walking around is still not at the end, she is also thin skin and tender meat, and she knelt for so long before, and her face changed color before she was about to walk out of Merlin. Fortunately, she could walk and secretly greet Yin Susu in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't be able to hold on.
But it didn't take long to get out of Merlin. The steward led her to a small courtyard in the middle of nowhere, and began to knock on the door.
Xue Cuiyi looked at the small one in the courtyard, with a white powder wall on the periphery. The wooden door, half-hidden in the woods, is a little inconspicuous no matter how you look at it, and it is very strange in my heart, "Mrs. Yin lives here?" It's too basic. ”
"Miss Xue is really good at laughing." The steward stopped his movements, and said with a smile on his face, "My master is also a county lord." How is it possible to live here? ”
"And what is this?" Xue Cuiyi was a little puzzled, and asked again.
The steward was about to explain, when the door creaked open. The one who opened the door was an old woman in a brown cloth robe, who raised her eyes and looked at the steward and Xue Cuiyi and said, "Yo, where did you get such a beautiful girl?" Is it a girl or an embroiderer? ”
"This is Mother Wu." The steward laughed. He said to Wu's mother again, "The following things are troublesome to you." ”
Mother Wu smiled, "It's all used to it, and it doesn't take much effort." ”
Xue Cuiyi looked confused, and couldn't help asking, "Didn't you lead me to see Mrs. Yin?" ”
"Miss Xue pleaded like this, and Mrs. sent a message asking the little one to take Miss Xue to meet Mrs. The steward said while giving Wu's mother a look.
"Then why don't you take me directly?" Xue Cuiyi said incomprehensibly.
"Miss Xue, didn't you notice the mud on your body? You are a famous Oiran in the capital. I don't say anything about my appearance, but I shouldn't have seen my wife so disheveled. ”
The steward also deliberately accentuated his tone in the famous capital. Xue Cuiyi is a smart person, how can he not hear the other party's sarcasm, and he is angry for a while. According to her actual temper. If it were on his own turf, he would have asked someone to drag down this steward who looked down on people and give him a stick. But she immediately thought that this was not her Yicui Building, but Yin Susu's Lan Yuan, and swallowed this breath stiffly.
"In short, please Miss Xue, you will take a bath and change your clothes before you see my wife, the clothes and accessories should be ready, please change them all, don't bring something bad from the Qinglou in."
This is much more explicit, Rao is Xue Cuiyi tried his best to endure it, and his face became ugly, "Why do you slave talk like this, the so-called person who comes is a guest, is Mrs. Yin so hospitable?" ”
Not to be outdone, the steward sneered, "That's right, you're a guest, but you're not a serious guest, right?" Could it be that we invited you from Lan Yuan, Miss Xue, don't forget that you knelt down at the door and begged to come in, if my wife didn't see that you were pregnant, how could someone like you be allowed to enter the door? ”
Xue Cui's face turned red, she didn't dare to quarrel with this steward in the end, although she didn't do everything possible, but it took a lot of thought to enter Lan Yuan, where did she dare to really make trouble, in case she was kicked out, her previous efforts would be wasted. Besides, what the steward said was right, he wanted to say again, since you don't want to come, go back, how should you pick it up? Really go back?
Therefore, she endured her anger and followed Mother Wu into the small courtyard to bathe and change clothes, but after entering, she found that although the decoration was not luxurious but elegant and generous, she also breathed a sigh of relief. It's just that then she was still unhappy, she asked herself to take a bath alone, but Mother Wu kept following her with two maid rings, saying that she was serving her to take a bath, and resolutely did not let her be alone.
She couldn't help it, she stalemate, and each took a step back, she could take a shower by herself, but she still couldn't do anything to let them stare at all. What made her even more angry and depressed was that because she was angry, she was inevitably a little negligent, and after she took a bath, she found that the clothes she had changed before, the hairpin ring bracelet, and let Wu's mother take the first step to put it away. Xue Cuiyi asked, but she didn't let go.
"Miss Xue, I know that you have concerns, but you also have to be considerate of our subordinates, can you still let you wash dirty clothes, we will send these hairpin ring jewelry later, if you want to lose it, just ask our wife for it, our wife will not be greedy for your things." is different from the disgust that was in charge of things before, this Mother Wu has a smile on her face, which can be said to be a lovely smile. But no matter what Xue Cuiyi says, she just won't let go and will not compromise.
Fortunately, she was careful not to carry anything like a poison and drug mechanism this time, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to pass this level. There is no doubt that if Yin Susu discovered something, there was a legitimate reason for killing himself at that time. Xue Cuiyi was annoyed that she was careless, so she let Mother Wu make the first move, and she was a little afraid, if she listened to Yan Yihui and brought poison to kill Yin Susu, she would have carried it here.
She took a deep breath and secretly reminded herself that she was not facing an ordinary woman, but a person who was in charge of most of the country's intelligence system as a woman. I thought that Yin Susu's love for her younger brother Yin Xing would make her a little negligent or relaxed, but she didn't expect her to be so difficult, she hadn't seen Yin Susu until now, and she had already suffered a lot of losses.
In this way, she is not afraid of death, but she can't die before the task is completed, after all, it is the task assigned by that person to herself, and she will complete it even if she dies.
Thinking of this, her original discouragement was swept away, her heart was like a sail puffed up again, and she once again had the courage to ride the wind and waves! (To be continued......)
