Chapter 262: Nightmare
The three people who have been separated for a long time seem to have endless words.
Gu Caiping is pregnant in the end, and her physical strength and energy are not as good as before. At first, I was excited and excited, but after a long time, the corners of my eyes and eyebrows showed tiredness.
Xu Jinyu smiled understandingly: "Cousin-in-law, you don't have to stay with us all the time, let's go back to the house and rest first!" My cousin and I sat in the carriage for a long time, and now we are a little tired, so we go back to the house to rest. Let's talk again in the evening when we have dinner together. ”
Gu Caiping nodded apologetically.
She was bulky and struggled to stand up. The two midwives stepped forward neatly, one on the left and one on the right, supporting Gu Caiping.
Xu Jinyu quickly looked at the two midwives.
Both midwives were about forty years old, one was taller and had a fat face. The other was thin and short, with a few pockmarks on his face.
The two mothers-in-law noticed that Xu Jinyu was looking at themselves, and hurriedly reported their names with a smile.
The tall and fat midwife's surname is Ma, and according to the habit at this time, he called Ma Pozi. The short and thin mother-in-law's husband's surname is Gao, and he has to be called a tall mother-in-law.
Ma Pozi and Gao Pozi are both Ji Ze's people, Xu Jinyu didn't want to say anything, so as not to startle the snake, and smiled at the two of them: "My cousin-in-law has reached the labor period, and she may have abdominal pain at any time." It's up to you two. ”
The two mothers-in-law didn't dare to say anything, and helped Gu Caiping into the house.
Ji Yu said a little impatiently: "What do you have to say to the two midwives, you have this patience." ”
Xu Jinyu smiled and said pointedly: "That's not what I said. These two midwives are indeed of low status, but the cousin-in-law has to rely on the two of them for childbirth. Even the life of the child in the womb is pinched in their hands. If the two of them don't do their best, it's bad. ”
"They dare!" Ji Yu raised her eyebrows. Snorted lightly: "When my sister-in-law gives birth, I will stay in the delivery room, I want to see who dares not to be unsatisfied." ”
That's what I'm waiting for!
A smile flashed in Xu Jinyu's eyes, and he praised in his mouth: "Don't be impressed for three days!" Cousin Yu has been in charge of the inner house for a few months, and she is much more thoughtful in her speech and deeds than before. With you, my cousin-in-law will definitely be able to give birth safely. ”
Ji Yu was very proud when she heard it: "Of course." The mother is recuperating from her illness, and the eldest brother is too busy with official business to accompany the sister-in-law. I'm going to have to do my part. ”
Ji Ze has been very busy these days.
King Qin and the crown prince went to Shandong, and Murong Hui also went to Shandong. He, the deputy commander of the guards and infantry troops, has monopolized the power, how can he not be busy?
The king of Qin had promised to seek the position of commander of the capital for him. With King Qin's methods, Murong Hui is probably the same as the crown prince this time
At that time, the position of the commander of the capital will be no other!
As soon as he thought of this, Ji Ze's mood became wonderful. No matter how busy you are, you don't feel tired.
When a guard reported that the steward of the grange had sent a servant to deliver the letter. Ji Ze didn't take it to heart either. Gu Caiping's delivery date is just a few days away. It looks like it's about to give birth.
Ji Ze said casually: "Is it that the princess is about to give birth?" ”
The little guy replied, "Not really. Before the slave came, the princess was still fine. The steward ordered the servant to come and deliver a message to the prince, and the third lady and the Xu family's cousin came to the grange together. said that he wanted to accompany the princess and wait until she gave birth safely before leaving"
What the?
Ji Yu and Xu Jinyu actually went to the Grange!
Whose bad idea the hell?!
Ji Ze was stunned, and then he was annoyed, and his face suddenly became gloomy: "How could the two of them go to the Grange?" ”
He had already arranged it secretly. When Gu Caiping gave birth to a child, let the two midwives do it to Gu Caiping, Ji Yu and Xu Jinyu were in the grange, and the two midwives would definitely have a lot of scruples. may not dare to do it.
The little guy replied tremblingly, "The slave doesn't know." ”
Ji Ze snorted coldly, and a haze flashed in his eyes: "That's it." You go back first. Let the steward take care of the food, clothing and daily life of the two young ladies, I will be on duty tonight, so I will not go for the time being. I'll go again tomorrow when I have time. ”
The little guy resignedly retreated.
Ji Ze frowned, called the guards to give a few words in a low voice, and then rode out of the imperial city alone
Xiao Zou is nearly seven months pregnant, with a high belly and a bulky body. Probably because of his age and heavy heart, Xiao Zou is far less able to eat and sleep than Gu Caiping, and he is often awakened by nightmares at night.
The same is true tonight.
Xiao Zou exclaimed, and Huo Ran woke up. There was cold sweat on his forehead and palms, and he subconsciously shouted: "Han Dai!" ”
Han Dai, who was sleeping on the ground, suddenly heard a sharp scream, and was also awakened, and lifted the futon and got up: "What's wrong with Madame?" ”
In the darkness, Xiao Zou's angry voice came: "Who told you to blow out the candlesticks?" It's dark in the house, and you're expecting me to have nightmares, aren't you? ”
Han Dai was very aggrieved.
Before going to bed, it was obvious that the lady couldn't sleep because of the light in the room, so she blew out the candlestick. Now I have nightmares, and I am angry with her
However, no matter how wronged she was, she didn't dare to defend herself, lest she be scolded even worse.
Han Dai went to light the candlestick. The room lit up, and Xiao Zou's embarrassed appearance was also imprinted in his eyes.
Han Dai was also taken aback when she saw it in her eyes.
His hair was messy, his face was puffy, and his eyes were filled with the horror of nightmares. At this time, Xiao Zou's family, where is there still the glamorous and enchanting before, but he looks like a crazy woman
Of course, Han Dai only dared to think about these words in her heart, and never dared to say them.
Han Dai stepped forward and asked with concern, "Is Madam having another nightmare?" ”
Oh, yes!
Ever since she arrived at the Grange, she has had the same nightmare!
She dreamed that her husband, who had gone to the border pass, had returned, and when he saw her towering belly, he was furious, drew the long knife in his hand, and stabbed her in the stomach fiercely
Xiao Zou took a deep breath and didn't want to think about it anymore: "Go to the kitchen and bring some hot water." I'm going to wipe myself before I go to sleep. "Because of the nightmare, my body was dripping with cold sweat, sticky and greasy, and it was very uncomfortable.
Han Dai replied and retreated.
Xiao Zou was the only one left in the room, and the silence was a little scary.
In the middle of the night, the other maids and women all fell asleep. It's unlikely that you'll want to call someone to accompany you. Xiao Zou barely suppressed the panic in his heart.
There was a knock on the door.
Xiao Zou was startled, and his voice unconsciously sharpened: "Who?" ”
Outside the door, the voice of the gatekeeper was a little flustered: "Madam, a group of people came out of nowhere, just outside Zhuangzi." The slaves and maids looked through the crack in the door, and there were dozens of them, all of them carrying weapons. The slave didn't dare to open the door, so she had to come and report to the lady. ”
