Chapter 16: Grandmother

The courtyard was in a mess, and the maids and maids hurriedly entered the house with copper basins, or hurriedly brought out basins of blood and water from the house, and some carried braziers, cotton cloths, and sorghum stalks...... There are so many things that it is difficult to describe in detail.

Everyone was in a hurry, their expressions were solemn, and they didn't squint, but no one noticed Xie Zhen running in.

Xie Zhen became more and more uneasy, walked to the front of the main room in three or two steps, lifted the curtain and went straight in, and collided with the mother-in-law who was holding a tea tray and was about to leave the house

The woman was frightened by her, and with an "ouch" sound, she dropped the tea tray by mistake.

The blue and white twig-patterned tea cup that was originally placed on the small black lacquer tea tray made a crisp sound on the ground and shattered into several petals.

The people in the room heard the sound and looked at it.

The woman's feet were weak, she turned around and knelt on the ground, and crawled forward a few steps with her head down, her body trembling like chaff, and she begged in a cry: "Old lady spare her life! ”

The old lady Jin who was eating tea gently closed the tea lid, and Mama Jin on the side hurriedly took the tea cup with both hands and put it on a few cases, and took out a handkerchief from her sleeve to clean the old lady's hands carefully.

Mrs. Jin was served by her, and raised her eyes to look at the trembling mother-in-law on the ground, her face was a little unhappy, but she didn't come out, only let out a cold snort from her nose.

That grandmother has been serving by Mrs. Jin's side all the year round, and when she saw Mrs. Jin's tone at this time, where could she not see that Mrs. Jin was angry? Hurriedly smiled softly: "Broken peace, years are safe." Old Madam Jin's tense face eased at this time, "Go down!" ”

Go down? If you don't pursue her now, you will naturally not punish her for this matter in the future! The woman suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and hurriedly kowtowed a few times, and bowed: "Old lady Xie." The old lady is really a bodhisattva! ”

Where would anyone not like to hear good words? What's more, the other party also compares himself to a bodhisattva! Old Madam Jin's expression was even more gentle.

"Alright, let's go down!"

This sentence of "go down" has a smile in her tone, which is completely different from the impatient tone of the previous sentence "go down", which shows that Mrs. Jin is really angry. The woman's heart was settled, and she kowtowed and said a few flattering words, and then slowly cleaned up the broken porcelain and tea tray on the ground, got up and retreated.

When the mother-in-law came out of the house, Mrs. Jin turned her head sideways and said to Mama Jin beside her and said, "Look at this mother-in-law, she is so old, and she is still running with a mouth!" ”

Having said that, she had a smile on her face, which showed that she was in a very good mood.

Mama Jin looked at the smile lines between the corners of Mrs. Jin's eyes, and also covered her mouth and smiled: "I think what the woman said is right!" She broke the teacup, and the old lady didn't punish her, isn't it the heart of a bodhisattva? ”

"You, you!" Mrs. Jin couldn't help but laugh, stretched out her hand and nodded at her, "You are also a!" Bodhisattvas purify sentient beings, how can I compare with bodhisattvas? When you say this, don't you make the Bodhisattva blame me? "Oops." When Mama Jin heard this, she slapped herself in the mouth, so she made a panicked look, folded her hands and said: "Amitabha, I can say whatever I want, but I didn't expect to offend the Bodhisattva." If the Bodhisattva wants to blame, just blame me, and you must bless the old lady with a long life! ”

When Mrs. Jin saw her playing, she couldn't help laughing, and smacked her with a smile, "You old fool!" ”

Mama Jin also laughed with her, but she saw a pink and tender girl standing in the room. "Old lady." Mama Jin smiled and reminded in a low voice.

Old Madam Jin said "um", her eyes turned, and then she looked at Xie Zhen, who was standing silent.

She squinted her eyes and thought for a moment before she said, "Little Liu? ”

Xie Zhen was staring at the curtain hanging in front of the side room that was used as a temporary delivery room, and there was a moan/groan coming from inside in her ears, she was anxious, and suddenly heard her grandmother calling herself, so she suddenly came back to her senses and hurriedly bowed: "Grandmother." ”

"Hmm." Old Madam Jin bowed slightly, frowned, and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Xie Zhen said: "The child heard that his mother was not giving birth well, and he was worried, so he came to visit and asked his grandmother not to blame. ”

"It's right to worry about your mother as a daughter, what's so strange?" Old Madam Jin sneered: "It's just that I heard a few days ago that you don't like the child in your mother's womb, and you are not allowed to give birth to your mother, why did you become so sensible in two days?" ”

Xie Hao's eyes widened, did she actually say such a ridiculous thing? Where is having a baby the same as a trivial matter? If you say you can't do it, you can't do it? However, based on her dislike for Xie Jue in that life, maybe she could really say such a thing.

Xie Zhen was embarrassed, her eyes rolled, and she replied seriously: "The child has figured it out." This is born from the same root, so why not be in a hurry to fry each other. ”

Old Madam Jin didn't expect her to answer like this, and she couldn't help but look at her a few more times when she heard this.

The seven-year-old girl has a hanging hair, a melon seed face, clear apricot eyes, and childish facial features, but she wants to make an old-fashioned look. It's the same as her mother, Lai! The more she looked at it, the more bored she became, so she looked away, raised her hand impatiently, and said, "You should retreat first!" Although you are a filial piety, but the delivery room is heavy, how can you let one child in? ”

"Grandmother......" Xie Zhen was still about to ask for more, but suddenly heard the sound of the curtain being lifted in the side room, and couldn't help but pause and turned her head to look.

Is it raw? Her heart tightened suddenly, and the mother ......

Xie Hao stared closely at the person who came out from behind the curtain.

I saw a mother-in-law in a dark red placket hurriedly cross the threshold, and knelt down in front of Mrs. Jin a few steps forward.

"Old lady, the fourth lady is not good." Xie Zhen's body shook, and her face was as pale as paper. Old Madam Jin's face was unwavering, and she only snorted lightly: "What are you panicking about? Your mother-in-law Zhang has been delivering babies for so many years, so you have the guts? ”

"The old lady taught me a lesson." Mrs. Zhang smiled on her face, but she only complained in her heart - she had delivered many people, but now this one in the delivery room is different! That's the wife of the fourth master of the Xie family! In case something goes wrong, not only will her old face and old signboard be finished, but it is estimated that even this old life will be compensated! However, it is also strange to say that the daughter-in-law of other people's families gives birth to a child, and the mother-in-law is nervous and can't sit still, why is this old lady Jin not worried at all?

She was slandering in her heart, and she heard Mrs. Jin ask again: "Say, what's wrong with the fourth lady?" ”

I don't think I'm completely unconcerned about asking this question. Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "I think it's because the month is too long, the little young master is older than the average baby, and it is not difficult to give birth to a rough woman, but the fourth lady is a delicate body, I'm afraid she can't stand it." ”

Old Madam Jin frowned and asked, "How many fingers have you opened now?" ”

"It's only six fingers." Mrs. Zhang said.

"Then ......" Old Madam Jin was about to speak, but she heard a young female voice rushing to say quickly and urgently:

"Six fingers? Can the four ladies still stand it? ”

This female voice is none other than Xie Zhen.
