Chapter 593: It's Launched
I went to see a doctor in the morning, and my classmate's wife had breast cancer... It seems that people are constantly being found to have some terminal illness!
------Off topic------
Walking out of Songfeng Courtyard, Qiu Chen instructed Hanguang and Xuan Bing, who came up: "You go and get the medicine box, call forsythia and gardenias." Take another old ginseng and ......"
Yufeng's due date is the fifth day of the first month, which is still seven or eight days away from starting, although it is not a premature birth, but it is still worrying...... It has nothing to do with premature birth, nothing else, not to mention the medical conditions at this time, it is a modern medical equipment with such a developed medical level, and production is still a dangerous thing.
Qiu Chen got up and asked for his own cloak, and then carried the hand stove, took Aman, and stopped sitting in the sedan chair, hurriedly walked, all the way to Yufeng's house in the east courtyard outside the second gate.
The little girls on the ground were a little surprised, and they all kowtowed to thank her, and Mama Lin stepped forward and brought a group of little girls down.
Qiu Chen was only startled for a moment, and then stabilized his mind. At this time, I heard Aman say this, but he didn't agree, he groaned slightly, and still ordered directly: "The remaining eighteen are divided into two groups, and from today onwards, they will be on duty in Mu'en Courtyard." ”
"Mother, you are picking it here, I'll go with Sister Yuegui to take a look...... Well, don't worry, I went to see Sister Yufeng yesterday, and it was very good. …… Master Li is good with my master, and he must have dragged my master over early at this time...... Sister Yufeng must be safe for mother and son, smooth and proper, you don't have to worry! ”
Qiu Chen's hand trembled, and the teacup in her hand was almost thrown out by her. It was still Aman's little girl who quickly reached out to the side, took the teacup, and put it on the kang table.
Just as she was about to make a closer selection, Yuegui hurriedly walked in, and when she saw a room of little girls, she didn't pause for a moment, and walked directly to Qiu Chen, and said in a low voice: "Madam, Sister Yufeng has launched!" ”
This group of little girls waited in the courtyard for half an hour, although they were wearing cotton clothes and pants, their faces were pale from the cold, and their bodies were shivering. Qiu Chen's gaze swept over a group of little girls kneeling in front of him, and he saw faint marks on the cuffs of two of the little girls, which she pointed out. Chen stepped forward silently and took the two little girls down.
After dealing with the family affairs, Qiu Chen ordered Mama Chen to bring in the twenty little girls she had selected.
Aman immediately walked over from the West House, just as Hanguang brought someone to set up breakfast, Aman accompanied his mother to use it, and then the mother and daughter went out together and went to Songfeng Courtyard.
Mama Chen agreed, and went to prepare and arrange the affairs of various places.
Qiu Chen's heart turned countless times in an instant, but he quickly calmed down, and said lightly: "Well, after dinner, let them go to Songfeng Courtyard and wait." ”
There are also three children, Chang'er, Liang'er and Jiu'er, but there is a grandmother and a nurse, and the girl only temporarily dials Yuntong, Qiuli and Wulan over. The number of girls and mother-in-law everywhere has been insufficient for a long time. Before, Qin Zheng ignored these, but Xia Yan's bold move last night made him unbearable, so he simply ordered Mama Chen to choose someone for Qiu Chen to make up for the shortage.
But Qiu Chen is not used to a bunch of people crowded in the house, and the things in the house rarely need to be served, especially at night, even the night watch, yes, all along, there are only four big girls around her, and six big girls. There are four housekeepers, but Yufeng has been off for two or three months because of pregnancy, and her errand is also temporarily Qingxing, and no new people are placed.
According to the practice of the noble family, Qiu Chen's status, even if he is not too luxurious, should be equipped with four housekeepers, eight big girls, twelve second-class girls, sixteen third-class girls, and twenty or thirty rough maids.
Seeing that Madame just looked at her and didn't speak, Mama Chen had no choice but to continue: "Master Hou ordered that the old slave pick twenty little girls from the family to come over, show Madame each other, and pick out suitable supplements everywhere!" ”
Qiu Chen was slightly stunned, raised his eyes and looked at Mama Chen, no need to ask, he already knew the answer. Since Qin Zheng can speak, it's not as simple as 'marrying'...... Forget it, there are so many girls, just this one has been sent away, and I can't complain about others!
Mama Chen raised her eyes and glanced at Qiu Chen quickly, and then said, "In the morning, Master Hou sent a message and sent Xia Yan away......
Qiu Chen lowered his eyes and nodded in response.
Turning around, Mama Chen bent her knees and replied in a low voice: "Madam, the eldest young master took Brother Yun to the back garden." Hou Ye went out and asked the old slave to tell his wife that he would not come back for dinner at noon. ”
Getting up, Mama Lin and Mama Chen both came in to wait, Qiu Chen unexpectedly looked at the two mammas who looked very strict, and he didn't rush to ask anything, he went into the clean room to wash up, combed his hair in a bun, and Qiu Chen took homemade pearl powder and put it under his eyes to cover the heavy cyan.
She only got up in the middle of the hour, and her eyes still inevitably showed a dark blue.
On the second day, Qiu Chen got up late.
When I started the Cold War by myself, I really tasted the Cold War, and I realized that it was far more torturous than scolding and fighting. Qiu Chen didn't dare to turn over, and lay straight on the warm kang, sore all over. His eyes were wide open, but he couldn't see the pattern of the tent hidden in the dark night...... A sleepless night!
Qin Zheng came out of the clean room and did not leave, but he did not sleep with Qiu Chen. After he sent Mama Lin down, she was placed on the bed opposite the ondol.
This battle has been able to reach the final sprint stage, the winner is defeated, the winner lives, and the loser dies! is not only the prince and prince in front, but also the civil and military officials who follow behind him.
The reason why Qin Zheng suddenly wanted to send their mother and son back to Anyang was to avoid this crisis that was about to come in the near future!
However, Qiu Chen knew that behind this appearance of peace, there was a more hidden but more cruel battle and calculation, and this qiē battle and life and death struggle would be boiling and bursting out in an instant at the moment of Emperor Invegu's funeral, and who would be able to sit in that seat in the end, and even who could live, is now unknown.
Since King Qi was demoted, King Cheng has kept a low profile, and the Wei family, who connects the two, is no longer as arrogant as before, it seems that he has lowered his eyebrows everywhere and endured it everywhere...... This made the court battle that had lasted for more than ten years seem to have disappeared, and everyone was full of kindness when they saw it, and several princes also had special brothers and friends......
After the emperor entered the winter, the amount of ginseng was more than doubled. It turned out that the ginseng soup that was served in the morning and evening became four or more times...... Correspondingly, there is news from the inner palace, the emperor's night palace has not only not decreased, but has increased than usual, almost every night will recruit concubines to sleep, and moreover, six royal maids have been sealed in a row, and a Xiaoyi and a Baolin have been sealed exceptionally. This makes Emperor Jingshun, who has always been disinterested in women, very much 'white-headed chatting and juvenile madness'...... And related to it, it is probably the matter of the inner man entering the deer many times. Fresh deer blood is an excellent thing to strengthen the body, often used to warm and replenish the kidney yang, but I don't know that such a large dose of warm supplements in a short period of time seems to be a lot stronger temporarily, but a single warm supplement, on the contrary, will accelerate the depletion of yin blood fluid, yin and yang are dependent on each other, yin and yang are lost in warmth, and metaplasia is not effective; Yang has no yin and no long, and there is nothing to rely on. The result of long-term replenishment of yang and consumption of yin is that it will accelerate the weakening of the body, and in the end it can only be the exhaustion of yin and blood, the solitary yang is not long, and the yin and yang are exhausted, and the body is completely exhausted and collapsed, and it is not far from death.
She had already received news from Chengying.
Qiu Chen, who was still asleep soundly just now, slowly opened his eyes, there was a gap in the curtain that did not close, and a faint candlelight shone in, which happened to fall on her face, and in the bright candlelight, the two eyelashes flickered slightly, and again, which seemed to show that at this moment, Qiu Chen's thoughts were surging in his heart.
The light barely audible footsteps left the ondol and went to the clean room.
Retracting his hand, Qin Zheng stood silently under the kang for a moment, and then turned around silently.
The anger that had just risen in an instant dissipated inexplicably, Qin Zheng's gaze softened, he stretched out his hand, and wanted to touch his wife's face, but his fingers stopped two inches away from his wife's face, and finally, he slowly slipped down, pulled the corner of the quilt, and covered his wife's exposed shoulders.
Qin Zheng picked up the tent and leaned in half of his body, the weak candlelight shone in through the gap in the tent curtain, and a touch fell on the corner of his wife's mouth, the soft red lips were gently pursed, and the subtle breathing in the dark night was even and long......
She could hear the movement outside clearly, and when she heard the footsteps walking in, straight towards the warm kang, the corners of Qiu Chen's mouth curved slightly, and then she regained her calm. The eyes that sparkled in the dark night closed at the same time.
In the tent, on the warm kang, Qiu Chen, who had been placed for half an hour, still looked at the two koi on the top of the tent with his eyes open, and his eyes were dark and clear, without a little wave.
The folded heavy entwined passion fruit velvet curtain, as thin as the cicada-winged magnolia flower thread lamp shadow yarn tent, the top of the tent has embroidered more than a year of koi red lotus pattern, delicate and beautiful entwined lotus leaf pattern silver silk embroidery, lined with black thick Luo, quietly hanging down, in the corner of the house under the halo of a candle flame, exquisite like a dream.
The ondol in the back room is covered with heavy curtains.
“…… I'm going to die...... Is! Mama Lin woke up a little behind, but she didn't seem to see Xia Yan's tears at all, she gritted her teeth and pinched Xia Yan's arm, followed by a light glance at Feng who was standing on the side in a daze, and walked into the blue yarn cabinet in a hurry but almost silently, and followed to serve Qin Zheng to bathe.
Chengying moved quickly, stepped forward and grabbed Xia Yan's shoulder, dragging her out. Chengying has kung fu, this anger is urgent, the strength is naturally not small, Xia Yan only felt as if her shoulder was scratched, the pain was drilling, and tears instantly overflowed her eyes, but fortunately, she hadn't lost her last reason, she bit her lip and didn't dare to make a sound, but the tears soon rolled down uncontrollably.
Xia Yan's sudden jump out just now was too unexpected, and then, Qin Zheng's reaction was only a moment, Mama Lin and Chengying were stunned for a moment, Qin Zheng had already entered the blue yarn cupboard.
Qin Zheng didn't seem to see it at all, his gaze was only a moment, and then he turned away, and his footsteps didn't stop for a moment, he didn't move much at all, but he easily bypassed Xia Yan who was blocking him, bypassed the blue yarn cupboard, and stepped into the inner room.
If Qiu Chen saw it, he would probably think of a poem that has been widely circulated in modern times: 'The most is the gentleness of the bow of the head, just like the shyness of the water lotus flower that is not able to withstand the cool breeze'!
As she spoke, Xia Yan seemed to lower her head more carefully and respectfully, her black and thick hair was combed into a double bun, and the crows hung down heavily on both sides of her head, and her thin neck could not bear the heaviness, and she bent down deeply......
Qin Zheng didn't see his wife when he entered the door, so he naturally wanted to bypass the blue gauze cabinet and enter the inner room, but Xia Yan hurriedly took two steps forward, and was able to stand in front of Qin Zheng, bowing her head slightly, holding her heart full of apprehension, clasping her hands in her sleeves, trying to calm her voice, and said softly: "Master Hou, Madam is afraid that she will fall asleep at this time, or ...... The slave maid will wait for the Hou Ye to bathe first! ”
Even now, Jingbei Hou is only in his early thirties, which is the best age in a man's life, and Qin Zheng is already tall and athletic, and his appearance is handsome enough...... is also dignified and solemn, vigorous in action, full of manly charm...... Such a man, with status, achievements and character, is naturally full of irresistible charm and attraction.
In his early twenties, he became the famous Jingbei general of the Ming Dynasty, and at the age of twenty-eight, he pacified Beirong, opened up the territory and made immortal achievements, and successfully became the marquis after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the first marquis to be awarded the title of marquis with military merits, and it is also the youngest marquis since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.
Before, Qin Zheng was served by a few grandmothers, and the others were either small servants or personal guards, and they didn't need girls. Yes, even the eldest Chengying, at first he only glanced at Hou Ye's tall and solemn figure from a distance, and he had more contact, or after marrying into the capital with his wife, yes, he didn't know much about Hou Ye's cold side. As for Xia Yan and Feng Qing, they are both children of the old man of the Hou Mansion in Jingbei, and they are a few years younger, and what they know more about the Hou Ye is from the description of their parents, and when they come into contact with it, they are already the Hou Ye who has softened a lot after marriage.
Since Hou Ye got married, he is no longer as cold as when he was a child, and when facing his wife and young lady, he even has a faint smile many times, although the smile is generally very light, but the old people such as the Chen family and the Lin family, who watched Hou Ye grow up, can see clearly, Hou Ye's expression is less cold, his eyes are much gentler, and he can even occasionally see the deep tenderness in his eyes.
Behind Mama Lin, Chengying stood with Xia Yan and the wind bowing her head lightly, Chengying was tall and delicate like a bamboo, and her bearing was square; Xia Yan and Feng Qing have also grown up, one has shaved shoulders and a plain waist, slender and graceful, such as Linbo Bihe; A delicate one, like a willow in spring. They are all at the age of the first blooming flowers.
Mama Lin greeted her with hidden worries in her eyes, took the cloak that Qin Zheng took off, and said in a low voice: "Madame is tired, so I will settle it first, and tell my mother-in-law to serve the Hou Ye before I go to sleep!" ”
However, on this day, when Qin Zheng returned to the room after practicing, his wife Qiu Chen had already fallen asleep.
Since Qiu Chen married into the Liangguo Mansion in the capital, except for Qin Zheng who was not at home on an expedition or running errands, at other times, Qiu Chen would always wait for Qin Zheng to go to bed together, and then, the two of them would whisper before going to bed, exchange feelings, and tell what they had encountered and thought.
