When the curtain was just lifted in early summer, the lower abdomen at the beginning of summer slowly became prominent.

Her luck seems to be excellent, there are no obvious symptoms of morning sickness in the first three months, and the worst time is only a bout of nausea and retching when she gets up in the morning.

is a delicious person, and when she is pregnant with a child, she has a great appetite, and she is not picky about what is sour, sweet, salty, or spicy, but it makes Mrs. Gu happy and sad for a while, and they all say that sour and spicy girls, granddaughter-in-law will be sour and spicy for a while, so how can she tell the difference?

However, under Wen's persuasion, Mrs. Gu no longer bothered about the problem of men and women, as long as she can give birth, there will always be a second one with the first, even if this child is a girl? Their Gu family has not had a girl for several generations, and she was born as a pearl in her palm.

At the end of the month, the doctor of Ping'an said that the fetal image was very stable, and with the consent of Mrs. Gu, Xia Chu got into a carriage with thick cushions, passed through two streets and alleys that were not very long, and drove towards Xia Mansion.

The eldest aunt asked someone to pass the word that Mrs. Xia was very ill, and asked several girls in the family who had married to go back.

This news made Xia Chu's heart flutter slightly, and even the joy of being pregnant was suppressed.

The carriage stood in front of the door of the Xia Mansion, and it was her own mother-in-law Zheng who came to pick her up. Since Mrs. Xia was sick, the Zheng family took her daughter back to the big house to serve the sick, and the Xia family had two sons, and even if the daughters-in-law split up, they still had to be filial to the old lady.

Xia Qing can't say that he is attached to Mrs. Xia, but he knows very well that his mother-in-law has always been very good to him, his biological mother went early, and all the maternal love he experienced from his mother-in-law. When he was young, some people provoked him in his ears and had some disobedient thoughts, but as he grew older, he understood more and more that his mother did not owe him half of it.

He is just a concubine, even if he is left alone, the responsibility will not fall on the head of Mrs. Xia, but she still does her best to upbring, never shirks the shirking, and never 'kills' the concubine like other people's families, but Yin Yin taught him to be down-to-earth.

Even if there is some eccentricity, isn't that how it should be? The eldest brother is the parent of the mother-in-law! Moreover, among the grandchildren, his daughter is the most favored! Chu'er can have today, and it is inseparable from the teachings of Mrs. Xia.

As an honest person, Xia Qing never thought that Xia Chu would have other 'insiders' when he was favored, what he saw was his daughter's excellence, even if she stood with the noble daughter of the same family, she was not inferior to others! In the past two years, he has sometimes seen his daughter following his mother-in-law on various occasions, and she has responded with a smile and a smile, as if she is an excellent housewife, and even her mother-in-law is full of praise for her - his wife will never teach such a child.

Although the youngest daughter has a good temperament now, he knows very well in his heart that compared to the eldest daughter who grew up beside the old lady since she was a child, the two of them have many differences after all.

This time, his grandmother was seriously ill, and he sincerely asked his wife to serve in front of his mother, which was himself, and he went to his eldest brother's house to visit him first when he went to court, and returned home alone at night.

Zheng has nothing to complain about, except for the small friction when she first got married, her mother-in-law has never treated her harshly, and the fault was all in herself, and the little edge and corner in her heart has long been smoothed out by the years.

She and her sister-in-law took turns to serve in front of her mother-in-law's bed, both of them were willing, and they were very careful in their work, without the slightest slackness, even the old man Xia saw it in his eyes, and he nodded frequently, sighing that he had married two good daughters-in-law.

Aunt Shen looked at the family's single-minded treatment of the housemother, and was a little embarrassed.

What kind of background is her, the most clear is herself, when she entered the mansion in the early years, she still had some thoughts of competing for favor, but all means could not withstand the honest Wei family, until the Wei family had a difficult birth, she was exposed again, and her body was not able to fight for nature, so she lost her favor, but the housemother did not treat her harshly because of this.

The food is good, the clothes and jewelry of each season are also a piece, I have saved some money in my hands, and I slowly lost the mind of being a demon, and I quietly became a transparent person in Xia Mansion, and I actually lived well.

Old Man Xia asked her at the beginning, if she would like to go to Zhuangzi, and she could find a widower with children to marry, and someone would send her to death in the future. It's not that she hasn't wavered, but after thinking about it, she still firmly refused, her life like this, can have such a dull and peaceful life, what else is there to fight for?

If there is a choice, she is also the daughter of a good family, how can she do that thin horse move?

The Xia family is an excellent family, see her well-behaved, and have never been embarrassed, and even gave her mother's family a lot of help, now her nephew is also a big family in the Zhuangzi, although it is still farming, but the family is full of food and clothing, children and grandchildren, every year will come in from the corner door to see her twice, send some simple food and clothing, although not as fine as the house, this heart is rare.

After Mrs. Xia fell ill, Aunt Shen never moved forward, but every time she looked at Old Man Xia's sincere sadness, she couldn't help but feel a little envious in her heart...... She was also a young girl, dreaming of a lover who would treat her heart and lungs, but the world is impermanent, and she broke off this absurd idea when she was sold by her father.

She learned a lot of skills in the Skinny Horse Pavilion to ponder men's minds, but she didn't expect to meet such a solid person.

But that heart is only for his wife.

At the beginning of Xia, he followed the Zheng family into the Cihe Hall, and saw the emaciated old Aunt Shen standing under the verandah outside, she was stunned, nodded slightly, and called softly: "Aunt Shen is also there?" ”

"The third aunt and grandmother are here, slave...... I went to see Madame just now, and I'm still awake. Aunt Shen was stunned, and responded in a little panic, Xia Chu's face was full of kindness, without the slightest contempt and coldness, as if she was a family.

She suddenly remembered that when the child was young, she would occasionally call her aunt and grandmother obediently, she was the least talkative of the four girls in the family, but every time she saw it, she seemed to be able to see her smile.

It's gentle and considerate, with a little detachment, but it's a very safe distance.

As far as she is concerned, these young masters and young ladies in the same house should not be too close.

"Okay, I'll go see my grandmother, and if I'm free, I'll ask my aunt and grandmother to come over and talk." Xia Chu said with a smile.

Old Aunt Shen replied vaguely and turned around.

Xia Chu raised his eyebrows and looked at his mother with some surprise: "Aunt Shen, what's wrong?" ”

"She wants to get out of the house!" Zheng said lightly: "A few days ago, her nephew came to beg, saying that he wanted to take her to serve outside and support her for the elderly...... It's also a caring person, but the old man is still there......"

At the beginning of summer, there was an 'oh' sound.

Although he has not been favored for many years, he is the person of Old Man Xia in the end...... At this time, it is a bit nondescript to ask for a house.

At the beginning of the summer, he raised his feet and entered the house, and Luo Ziqian was really awake.

Due to the warm weather, the windows in the house were opened to let in the air, and the faint sunlight poured in, washing away the gloom in the room. There was a bitter medicinal aroma lingering on the tip of the nose, and a bottle of spring flowers standing on the window table was blooming brilliantly, and a large bowl was placed next to it, and there were some brown marks at the bottom of the bowl.

This is just after taking the medicine.

"You're here." Luo Ziqian smiled and ate the candied fruit fed by a girl, and Yingying's eyes looked at her best friend in her previous life. She has recently cleared a little, and her eyebrows and eyes are high, but she has the same kind eyebrows, and she raised her hand and beckoned: "Come and sit next to me." ”

Xia Chu walked over, took the candied fruit box in the girl's hand, picked up a preserved apricot and said, "This is specially sent by the second sister, right?" The taste is still the best made by the second sister herself, can you eat another one? ”

"Okay, you can taste it too, that hawthorn can't be eaten, it's not good for children, you eat something else." Luo Ziqian opened his mouth and asked her to feed one, and bit it with a mouthful of healthy teeth, and frowned when he felt that it was a little, but he suppressed all the previous bitterness, and looked at Xia Chu's stomach again: "Is the child still honest?" ”

Xia Chu nodded: "It's quite honest, she doesn't make trouble day and night, I think she is a daughter who will hurt people." ”

Luo Ziqian's eyebrows bent: "Good daughter, daughter is my mother's intimate little padded jacket." ”

Xia Chu picked up a dried plum and ate it, then put the box aside and pulled the quilt for her.

Zheng always felt that something was wrong when he listened to this conversation, but there was no embarrassment between the two who were smiling very happily.

"Second daughter-in-law, go to the kitchen and ask them to pay attention when they are ready to eat, the three girls are double!" Luo Ziqian looked at Zheng as if he was very worried: "It's good to have her here to accompany me." ”

"Good mother, daughter-in-law will go and command." Zheng nodded hurriedly, and said to Xia Chu: "You accompany your grandmother well, don't walk around, your body is heavy, it's not good to bump." ”

Xia Chu smiled and said, "I know, mother." ”

Zheng got up and went to the kitchen to make arrangements, and when she went out, she thought why she had to go by herself. Wouldn't it be okay to find a little girl to pass the word? The kitchen is all accustomed to people, and there is no need to be too careful about this little thing, but it seems that the sister-in-law is not good for the housekeeper.

But it was ordered by the old lady herself, and this door is out, so you can't go away.

I made up my mind to go through the motions, but I came back to my senses after only half walking, and my mother-in-law seemed to have just found an excuse to send her out...... Is there anything you want to say to Chu'er?

Speaking of which, sometimes I always feel that my mother-in-law and my first child are not like grandchildren, and they talk more casually than her and sister-in-law, but like handkerchiefs to girlfriends...... She must have just misread it, right? How could she think that?

It must be an illusion.

"More than four months, right?" Luo Ziqian asked someone to move a chair over and asked Xia Chu to sit on the edge of the bed, and found a cushion for her to cushion, looked at her slightly bulging abdomen, and asked softly.

"It's been five months, and in a few months, you'll be able to hold my baby with your own hands." Xia Chu said with a smile.

The maids in the house were all standing outside, even the grandmother who came with Xia Chu was not at ease, and she had to retreat to the door under her eyes, and she naturally spoke a lot more casually.

"I would have liked to have hugged it sooner, but ...... It's really a body that doesn't fight for strength. Luo Ziqian raised his eyes and glanced at her, and when he saw that she was about to open his mouth when he heard the words, he hurriedly made a stop action: "You don't have to say that you have a long life, my body, I don't know yet?" It's all God's clothes to live to this age...... I've had a very good life in my life, and I've earned it. ”

"Isn't it good to say such frustrating things again? If you drink medicine and eat honestly, you will definitely be able to live for another twenty or thirty years. ”

"You've learned to deceive people, too." Luo Ziqian smiled lightly, Xu is air turned into the trachea, and couldn't help coughing twice.

Xia Chu hurriedly stepped forward to calm her breath, poured warm water for her to moisten her throat, pouted her mouth, and stopped talking.

"So far, I don't like you to say those vain things, we have been together for two lifetimes, you should know me, only I can't let go of your uncle...... Don't blame me for being biased. ”

"The heart is originally biased, what is there to complain about?" She smiled: "Don't say it's you, I'm the same." ”

"Don't interrupt." Luo Ziqian glared at her, this damn Nizi just didn't want her to finish.

Xia Chu closed his mouth and just laughed.

"I'm not begging you, it's just that your surname in this life is Xia, your uncle is good, and you also have a share. This kid's mind is still right, but his ears are soft and easy to deviate, if you can, you can watch him for me. ”

"I'm a junior, how can my uncle listen to me?"

"Take out the momentum of your queen mother, who dares not to listen?" Luo Ziqian joked and laughed, but sighed: "You always have a way, I know you best." ”

The beginning of summer is silent.

"I know you don't want to get contaminated with that, but after all, you have come to this world, how can you easily get rid of it? I didn't know before, we naturally live in peace, so why bother to experience it again? In the end, it came out of my belly, you take care of your father, and I also take care of my cub, just look at the child in your belly, and share a thing or two for me. ”

Xia Chu saw a hint of request on her face, and her heart suddenly softened by two points.

Wu Jieyu in the palace is pregnant.

But the good news is that Zhao Yanran is also pregnant.

According to Xia Bangqiu, Wu Jieyu has always been a time bomb, she is only afraid that the Xia family will be a never-ending situation, as the daughter of the Xia family, she can't get rid of this family word.

So he nodded silently.

Luo Ziqian smiled at this time: "It's good if you agree." ”

"I just responded, you have to take good care of your body, but if you don't let go of your heart, you can ignore everything." Xia Chu snorted and said, "Not for me, but also for my grandfather." ”

Luo Ziqian was stunned, and a little tenderness welled up in his eyes.

"I know." She said, quietly wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "I'll sleep for a while, and you will come to see me later." ”

The beginning of the summer said yes.

When she walked out of the door, she always felt that the sun was a little dazzling, she squinted her eyes, and there was a faint pain in her heart.

She was a little sad.

But when people get old, they all have such a experience.

Fortunately, she already has someone around her who is like Old Man Xia to Luo Ziqian, and she also has something she needs to protect.

In the bright sunshine, a little chill was also blown away by the wind.

She stroked her stomach, her eyes warming.

Luo Ziqian's life is coming to an end.

But her life has just begun. (To be continued.) )
