143 This man was a midwife
As soon as Lin Yixue sat down, Steward Feng came in with a chill. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Uncle Feng came over so late, but there's news from Jicheng?"
Looking at the housekeeper's dusty appearance, Lin Yixue asked with hopeful eyes.
"There hasn't been any news from Jicheng," Steward Feng immediately shook his head and denied,
"However, the old slave went out of the city on business today, and he unexpectedly ran into a person."
Since Steward Lao Feng came to report so late, it seems that the person he met must not be simple, at least he should be a person who knows the inside story of the year.
"Oh......, alone? Who is it? Did Uncle Feng bring it back to the house? ”
"This ...... is a mother-in-law, and the old slave was afraid that it would be inconvenient in the house, so he didn't bring it back." Steward Feng said with some embarrassment.
Lin Yixue understood at once, it seems that this person should be one, and Lu Yuan is a person who Lu Yuan does not want to see.
"Is it a mother-in-law who used to be in charge of what in our house? Where are people now? Lin Yixue suddenly became interested.
"This person is not our mother-in-law in Lufu, but one of the best midwives in Jicheng - Mrs. Rong."
"Midwife?" Lin Yixue asked a little confused.
At this moment, she really didn't think that what a midwife had to do with herself?
"Back then, Mrs. Rong, ten or twenty years ago, in our hometown of Jicheng, she was one of the best midwives in her craft, and she was a good hand at delivering babies.
Many large families have to make an appointment with her in advance to give birth, otherwise they will find someone temporarily. ”
"Could it be that she delivered the baby in the first place?" Lin Yixue suddenly had a flash of inspiration and immediately found the point.
"Yes, when Mrs. gave birth to Miss Miss, almost all mother and daughter died, and Mrs. Rong was also picked up by another family early at that time.
At the critical moment, the old man rushed over and lost thousands of taels of silver to the family, and he snatched Mrs. Rong over, so that she finally saved the young lady's life, but the lady did not survive after all. Steward Feng remembered the scene at that time and said with sad eyes.
"So, if you calculate it carefully, this Mrs. Rong can still be regarded as my savior?" Lin Yixue said clearly.
"It's not an exaggeration to say that. But the strange thing is that since the mother-in-law gave birth to the young lady, she disappeared in Jecheng the next day, and how many families have given birth to children have asked around, but there is no news of her.
For so many years, the old slave also thought she was dead.
However, I didn't expect that the old slave went to run errands outside the city today, and unexpectedly met Mrs. Rong who was delivering a baby. ”
"Oh, could it be that after so many years in the middle, Mrs. Rong didn't even do it as a midwife?"
"Yes, when we first met today, Mrs. Rong didn't recognize the old slave, so she let the old slave say something.
It turned out that she had been living at her niece's house outside Shengjing City for so many years.
For so many years, it has long been a long time since she was delivered, and today there happened to be a mother with dystocia, the fetal position was not smooth, and she had no choice but to ask for it, and she was forced to do it again. ”
Lin Yixue intuitively felt that there should be a drama this time.
This Rong Pozi must have a story, and if she can't tell it, she can dig out some of the things she wants.
A midwife with the best skills in Jeseong disappeared inexplicably the next day after delivering her.
has been living with his niece in another country for so many years, and he didn't even dare to do the most familiar midwifery work, saying that Mrs. Rong didn't know any secrets, and she didn't believe Lin Yixue when she killed her.
"Where is Mrs. Rong now?"
"The old slave didn't dare to bring her into the house, for fear of attracting attention, so he imprisoned her in a remote courtyard in the east of the city."
"Uncle Feng has worked very hard, but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Uncle Feng, I want to meet that Mrs. Rong." Lin Yixue said that she had already gotten up and walked towards the door.
"Is Miss going now? The slave and maid looked outside and it was snowing again, but it was very cold. Why don't we wait until tomorrow to go? Pearl was afraid that Lin Yixue's body would not be able to stand it, so she persuaded her.
"No, lest there be many dreams at night, let's go now, and Pearl will bring my cloak." Lin Yixue said firmly.
Who knows if that Rong Pozi will be alive tomorrow, in this world, killing a person like Rong Pozi is like killing a chicken.
After a lot of clues, she didn't want to lose it easily.
"In this way, Uncle Feng, we'd better be more concealed and act separately. Pearl and I will go out first, and you will go out again in a quarter of an hour, and we will meet at the corner of Chang'an Avenue in a moment. ”
"Alright then, Miss must be safe. Pearl must take good care of the young lady. Feng Quan said uneasily.
"Don't worry, Steward Feng, with me here, Miss must have nothing to do!" Pearl patted her chest and assured.
After the discussion was made, the people began to divide up.
After about half an hour, Lin Yixue, Pearl and Steward Feng traveled all the way, and finally came to the private house in the east of the city.
Because this place is basically a slum, the surrounding people are all small business people, and the people are relatively chaotic and mixed.
The streets around the house have always been full of people, and they are all tightly wrapped, so the appearance of a few of them did not attract the attention of others.
"Miss, Mrs. Rong is in the side room to the west, and the old slave has found a trustworthy mother-in-law to look at her.
However, Miss had better be mentally prepared, that Mrs. Rong seems to have a very tight mouth, as soon as she recognized the old slave just now, she no longer spoke casually, and she didn't know anything. Entering the courtyard, Steward Feng reminded Lin Yixue softly.
"Oh, don't be honest! It just so happens that I've been idle lately, and this girl has tinkered with something, and I'm worried that I can't find anyone to try the effect. Lin Yixue said with interest.
"A few of you will wait outside first, and I'll go in first by myself to find out." Lin Yixue said and pushed the door into the side room.
When I walked into the room, I saw a mother-in-law in her sixties, sitting cross-legged on the kang and closing her eyes to recuperate.
Hearing someone enter the door, she didn't open her eyes to check, it seems that this person's concentration should still be okay.
She didn't look at Lin Yixue, but Lin Yixue could just see her clearly, Lin Yixue stared at Rong Pozi and looked at it carefully:
This person cleaned up very neatly, and his gray hair was meticulously combed, it seems that this Mrs. Rong should be a particular person.
Wearing two pure gold earrings on her ears, and a large gold bracelet on each of her wrists, it is very generous at a glance, which shows that this Rong Pozi has a lot of money and is not bad for money!
In other words, if it is only a monetary inducement, it may not have significant results.
A midwife, who has not been engaged in her old business for more than ten years, lives in a relative's house, but wears gold and silver, where does the money come from? It seems to be very boring.
