Chapter 178: Birth
It was a month and a half after Rong Zheng was diagnosed as pregnant, and that day she was embroidering under the grape trellis, pinching a needle and embroidering a pair of socks. Embroidered and embroidered, the needle did not know where to poke.
When Mei Fen came out, she saw Rong Zheng fainting on the ground, and she was so frightened that she panicked, and hurriedly called someone to carry Rong Zheng into the house. It happened that Dr. Guan was in the villa, so I asked Dr. Guan to take a look.
Doctor Guan took the pulse, twisted his beard and smiled: "Grandma, this is happy." ”
Everyone in the room was extremely happy, and Fu Cui and Qiu Ci said: "You are good to take care of grandma, and I will go to report the good news to the county lord." ”
Sure enough, Duanhui heard that Rong Zheng was pregnant, and hurriedly said that he wanted to come and see Rong Zheng.
When Rong Zheng opened his eyes, he was a little surprised to see so many people around the bed, and hurriedly asked, "What am I doing?" ”
Duanhui took Rong Zheng's hand and smiled: "You can rest in peace and don't think about anything." If you like to eat, you can tell the kitchen to do it, and if you can't do it yourself, let people go to Qingfeng Building or Huixian Building to decide. ”
Rong Zheng was still a little confused, her body was very weak, she only remembered that she was embroidering under the grape trellis, why did she lie on the bed. The first reaction was that I was definitely sick, but when I saw everyone around me laughing, it didn't look like I was very sad. She secretly wondered in her heart, and then calculated her little days, and she already understood seven or eight points in her heart.
"Why didn't you tell me when you were pregnant, you still kept it a secret. There is nothing we both can not say. ”
Rong Zheng was slightly settled in his heart, and said with a smile: "County Lord, if you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have known that I was pregnant." ”
"You're too careless, and you shouldn't pay attention to what you should have come. I'm going to write to tell Junhua that he likes it too. ”
Duanhui can't be a mother in her life, but she will treat her brother's children as her own love. Rong Zheng is pregnant, and she is more excited than Rong Zheng.
Within a few days, Rong Zheng's various symptoms of joy came out, and he couldn't eat anything, Duan Hui always instructed the kitchen to change the way to make some food for Rong Zheng that she was interested in, and to change the way to let Rong Zheng eat.
Under Duanhui's careful care, the difficult first three months were finally over. One day in the fourth month, the discomfort in the body suddenly disappeared, and the whole person became refreshed, had a good appetite, and was able to eat and sleep.
With the experience of his previous life, Rong Zheng would not dare to lie in bed every day, nor would he dare to eat Haisai without moderation. When she gave birth to her brother Guan's son, her life was almost gone, and if she becomes a mother again in this life, she will definitely learn the lessons of the past.
At this moment, Steward Qiu, who had been sent to the capital by Mu Xuan before, came back. Returning with Steward Qiu was also a physician who was said to have been recommended by the prince and introduced to the lord of Duanhui.
In the past few months, the county lord's health has been good and bad, much worse than last year, and Dr. Guan has done his best. Now that there is a new imperial doctor to treat the county lord, Dr. Guan's burden is also much lighter.
However, Duanhui asked Dr. Guan to live in the villa and help Rong Zheng recuperate.
In addition to bringing a new imperial doctor, Steward Qiu also brought them another piece of news. According to Mu Xuan's intentions, Steward Qiu bought a three-in, three-out house in the capital, and also bought a few shops.
Steward Qiu handed over the land deed to Duan Hui, and Duan Hui transferred it to Rong Zheng without looking at it.
Rong Zheng looked at the thick stack of things in his hand, and said in his heart, it seemed that Mu Xuan was planning to take root in the capital.
In addition to these deeds, there is also a layout plan of the house.
Steward Qiu said: "Grandma, the uncle said before that how the house is arranged is completely according to the grandmother's wishes, so please ask the grandmother to look at the layout map, what changes need to be made, what to build, what to plant, please do not hesitate to ask." ”
Duan Hui glanced at it and smiled: "You are still pregnant, and you are worried about this." ”
Rong Zheng smiled: "There's nothing to do when you're pregnant, so it's easier to find something to do." "I really planned the house in the capital wholeheartedly.
When the fetal position was stable, Duanhui asked people to go to the Rong family and the Qi family to report the good news. Needless to say, my grandmother's family heard that Rong Zheng was pregnant, so she hurriedly asked people to bring two catties of bird's nest to nourish Rong Zheng's body, and also asked the maids to help make children's clothes, shoes and socks.
Compared with the enthusiasm of my grandfather's family, as a mother's family, I have not expressed anything for a long time.
Ma Shi excused herself to go home to recuperate, she really took medicine every now and then, and she didn't see the root of the disease completely broken, but her body looked good, and she had the energy to take care of the chores of the second room. Aunt Hui was only acting as a substitute for Zhongfeng before, and the Ma family is back, so she is not good to be cheeky and continue to dot. Every day, he only focuses on raising Brother Gui.
The people around Ma's have all changed, and these people are definitely not as satisfactory as the previous ones, Mama Zhou is her companion, and she is naturally devoted to her. Now most of these people around her are wary of her. Ma, who has experienced many difficulties, feels that it doesn't matter, as long as she is free, she can tolerate anything. In this life, she didn't want to go back to the Plum Blossom Temple.
Lychee reported in front of her: "Mrs., I heard that the third wife prepared a lot of nourishing medicinal materials for the third aunt and grandmother, and the old lady of the Qi family also asked people to send two catties of bird's nest." Shouldn't we have something to show for the same? ”
Ma is still in pain with the phoenix hairpin he sent out. She had a grudge against Rong Zheng, and she did it once, but she was reluctant to do it again the second time.
Seeing that Mrs. was silent, Lizhi became more and more bold and said, "Mrs., you are now at home, if you don't say anything, I'm afraid you won't be able to say anything." The lord will be unhappy when he finds out. If the master sees you and the third aunt and grandmother take the initiative to get closer, he will definitely be happy. ”
"Mouthy! It's not your turn to educate me with these words. ”
Lychee obediently shut up and didn't dare to say anything.
As he was talking, Rong Sheng walked in, looked at his mother's face was not very good, and said with concern: "Didn't my mother take medicine today?" ”
"What am I doing with that Raush?"
Ma Shi felt a little more comforted when he saw his daughter. Rong Sheng has gradually grown up, and these people in the family are the most intimate to her daughter. She looked at her daughter's beautiful face, and in a few years, her daughter will definitely be even more beautiful, maybe better than Sister Zheng. is also the daughter of the Rong family, what kind of family will Rong Sheng promise in the future?
Rong Zheng's and Lu Li touched the Ma family very deeply, how many women in this world can have such a good life, the pain of being held in the palm of the hand by the county lord, and the powerful ladies of Bianliang are also held high. Why can a bereaved eldest daughter marry so well, she thought Mu Xuan was a short-lived ghost at first, but now she heard that she mixed well in the northwest camp, and was promoted one after another, and Rong Zheng's future days are even more enviable.
Why is all this different from what I thought at the beginning, what is wrong?
However, what happened later made Ma a little incomprehensible, because the concubine died, she went to mourn, but she didn't see Rong Zheng, who was the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, and even the county lord didn't show her face. Later, I secretly inquired about it, and found out that Mu Xuan and the palace had a falling out, and the prince said that he would cut off relations with Mu Xuan. I don't know what's going on, and she can't find out what is deeper. However, if Rong Zheng and his family lose the backer of the palace, then it will be nothing.
Ma Shi looked at his daughter and asked with a smile: "Sister Sheng, your sister is happy." Do you think I should send something over to show it? They are clan relatives, and there must be nothing lacking in the family, no matter what I send, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the eyes of others. ”
Rong Sheng rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "Mother, you rush up, people don't necessarily pay attention to it, why are you doing these useless things." Have you forgotten who sent you to the Plum Blossom Nunnery to suffer all those things? ”
The daughter's words were exquisite, and Ma Shi held her daughter's little face and said, "Of course I won't forget, I have to make her suffer a little." ”
Immediately, Ma Shi was rarely generous, so he took a sum of money out and asked people to buy gifts for Rong Zheng. When this big bag of things was delivered to Rong Zheng, Rong Zheng only glanced at it, and she didn't lack anything and let people throw it into the warehouse, and she didn't ask again. Naturally, the fragrant powder of realgar was added, and Rong Zheng was useless at all.
The county lord of Duanhui considered that Rong Zheng was now inconvenient, and in order to think about her, he dragged his unhealed body back out to preside over the affairs of the villa. Seeing that there were few people in Rong Zheng's room, he asked the housekeeper to buy a batch of girls to come in, and picked a few top-notch ones to give to Rong Zheng.
"There aren't many people around you, so you can let Fucui or Qiuci help you adjust these newly sent ones first. Tell me if there's anything wrong. In addition, I'm helping you find a nurse, I heard that the nurse of the Daimyo Mansion is good, and I've already asked someone to investigate. ”
Rong Zheng said gratefully: "It's still early, don't worry, it's okay to find the nurse's business slowly." ”
"It's not early, be prepared. You're right listening to me. ”
In these aspects, Duanhui will always show her strong side, and she doesn't want others to change the decisions she makes.
"A few days ago, I asked Dr. Guan to help check the pulse, saying that my baby may be a daughter." Rong Zheng's tone was a little apologetic.
Duanhui smiled: "It's okay for a daughter, don't think too much, it's the same when you have children." Anyway, I'll bring it for you when you are born. My daughter hurts me the same. ”
Hearing this, Rong Zheng looked at the Duanhui County Lord with infinite gratitude. is also the eldest sister, Liao Qiongying and Mrs. Liao are in collusion. Even if she is married, she still dictates the things in their room, and the status of the county lord in front of her is even more precious, but he has always respected her and treated her well. She was very touched by this.
Rong Zheng lowered his head and blushed slightly: "I thought the county lord would not like his daughter." ”
"Where, besides, you are not the only one who gave birth to this one. It is also good to bloom first and then bear fruit. ”
Rong Zheng raised the fetus quietly, and there was not much for her to worry about. In addition to eating and sleeping every day, in his spare time, he walks around in the villa, or goes to the study to read quietly for a while, and discusses the piano skills with the county lord.
In the winter moon, Rong Zheng finally received a letter from Mu Xuan.
The letter greeted the family and was excited about becoming a father. told her to take good care of herself, and she would definitely not come back to spend the next year.
Rong Zheng felt a little lonely when she read this, remembering that on the seventeenth day of the winter month last year, she married into the Mu family and became husband and wife with Mu Xuan. has been married for a year, and the time together has not been added up to three months. However, I don't know how long it will take.
Rong Zheng held the letter paper and couldn't calm down for a long time.
She and the county lord spent a year peacefully in the villa, and Rong Zheng returned to her parents' house for a few days after the year.
Seeing his father, whom he had not met for a long time, Rong Zheng was very emotional.
Rong Jiang glanced at Rong Zheng's bulging belly and sighed: "Time flies so fast, you will be a mother in a blink of an eye." I'm afraid that someone will call me grandpa by this time next year. ”
Rong Zheng saw that his father had been proud of the officialdom in the past two years, and he was also happy for his father.
"Daddy's term of office is about to expire, I don't know where he will be transferred after the term expires here?"
Rong Jiang said: "This depends on the arrangement of the ministry, and I hope that I will be satisfied if I can get a good performance appraisal." ”
In his previous life, Rongjiang's career was very smooth, and with the help of his uncle, his father quickly became a Beijing official. I wonder if the changed life will be the same as the previous life.
"My father has always been an official, and he will definitely rise to prominence."
Rong Jiang grinned, and then laughed, his daughter's praise seemed to be worth countless sycophants below. He was delighted!
"How to be promoted and sent depends on the ministry, even if I go to a remote area, I have nothing to blame. I heard that Mu Xuan mixed well in the northwest. There is also a meritorious service in the moon. ”
Rong Zheng received Mu Xuan's letter in Dongyue, and she naturally didn't know what was going on in Layue.
"In the past, I was afraid that I would lose my eyes and let you follow a gentleman and make you suffer for the rest of your life. So it seems that he is not doing well, he is not a man who can only talk. I'm very satisfied that you have such a husband. It's also an explanation to your mother. ”
Rong Zheng smiled slightly, she had always believed in Mu Xuan, in everything he did, every progress.
At the end of February, Rong Zheng gave birth to a daughter with great effort, and the mother and daughter were safe, weighing five catties and eight taels. Also on the same day, Rong Zheng received a letter from Mu Xuan again, saying that he had been promoted to a thousand households.
Double happiness is coming! The quiet mountain village has not been so lively for a long time.
Rong Zheng looked at the infant girl, a smile appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but slap his daughter's face, and said with a smile: "You are really a baby, you got it to make the family lucky." ”
Duan Hui asked Rong Zheng to choose a name for the child, Rong Zheng thought that choosing a name was a big deal, and originally wanted to wait until Mu Xuan came back to take it, but Duan Hui said: "Junhua doesn't know when he will be able to come back." The child must have a name, and what is wrong with you giving her a milk name as a mother. ”
Rong Zheng thought about this carefully, although looking at the young girl's immature face, she couldn't help but think of the previous Sister Qi, but she would never use this name for her daughter, this is her and Mu Xuan's child, she thought about it and named her new daughter "Yuan".
The subordinates all call "Miss", only Duanhui and Rong Zheng will call her "Sister Yuan".
Duanhui is very rare to her newly-acquired niece, and she has to come to see her several times a day. If Rong Zheng is uncomfortable, she will also ask the nurse to carry the child to the Splendid Courtyard, and she will sleep next to Sister Yuan. (To be continued.) )
