Chapter 175: It's a dragon and phoenix fetus
The lord touched Chen'er's hair and corrected: "It's still called uncle, Chen'er, I have already told you that I am your father Gema, and you will call me father Gema in the future, remember?" ”
"Father Gemma?"
"That's right, that's what my father meant, you will be a little son in the future, you are no longer an ordinary person, and you won't have to suffer in the future."
"Daddy Gema is Daddy? Is it true, but my mother never told me, I don't believe it very much, I want my mother to tell me in person before I believe it. After speaking, he looked at her mother and waited for her mother to speak. The lord also looked at Jiujiu and motioned for her to make it clear to Chen'er.
Although Jiujiu didn't want to admit this fact, seeing Chen'er's expectant expression and the lord's expression that could not be refused, Jiujiu had no choice but to admit: "Chen'er, he is indeed your biological father, we are going back to your Amma's house now, you have to be more obedient in the future, you know."
"Great, I finally have a dad, great." Chen'er shouted happily, but Chen'er thought for a while and said very happily: "Mother, are we going to leave Uncle Hang and Aunt Li, but I don't want to leave here, can my father also live here and not go back." ”
"Chen'er, your father also has his own home, he must go back, he can't leave his home, Chen'er, don't worry, when you grow up, you can come to visit Uncle Hang and them." Jiujiu comforted.
Chen'er was still a little lost, and suddenly Chen'er seemed to remember something, and said: "What about Sister Teng'er, won't Chen'er see Teng'er in the future, mother, since we have a father, won't you take Sister Teng'er with you?" ”
"Chen'er, stop talking and don't say any more." Jiujiu hurriedly shouted.
The lord felt strange, who was Teng'er? As soon as Teng'er was mentioned, Jiujiu's complexion changed, and listening to Chen'er's tone, it seemed that he was a person who had something to do with Chen'er and Jiujiu. So the lord asked: "Chen'er, who is Teng'er you just said, who is she, and is she very familiar with you?" Chen'er was about to reply when Jiujiu preemptively said: "Teng'er is just a neighbor's child, about the same age as Chen'er, and they often play together, so Chen'er will mention her." Jiujiu hurriedly explained.
But Chen'er didn't understand his mother's intentions, only knew that her mother was wrong, Chen'er felt very strange, why did her mother say that, and then Chen'er asked: "Mother, isn't Teng'er my sister, why do you say that she is the neighbor's child." ”
After hearing this, the lord felt even more strange, how could Chen'er have a sister? Could it be that after Manqing left the Lord's Mansion, he gave birth to Chen'er and had a child with another man? Thinking of this, a wave of anger and jealousy rose from my heart.
Jiujiu saw the lord's angry face and hurriedly explained: "Because Teng'er is a little younger than Chen'er, and Chen'er has no brothers and sisters, it's just like she is a sister, but that's it." Jiujiu's tone and expression of speech were not very natural, which made the lord have a trace of doubt, Jiujiu must have something to hide from him, he must find out who this Teng'er is.
——
Taking advantage of the time to rest on the return trip, the lord had already instructed someone to check the Teng'er in Chen'er's mouth without telling Jiujiu, and it didn't take long for someone to reply.
"Lord, my subordinates have checked, there is no little girl named Teng'er on Fengyuan Mountain, but my subordinates found out that four years ago, Mrs. gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus, and there is a family surnamed Guan in the town not far from the mountain who adopted a baby girl to Mrs., the baby is now called Guan Tengxue, the official family is a famous businessman in the town, and Guan Tengxue is the fourth daughter of the official family, does the lord need his subordinates to bring Guan Tengxue back."
The lord was a little shocked, and after thinking for a while, he said, "No need, you go down first." ”
The lord fell into deep thought, since Jiujiu gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus, then doesn't he also have a daughter, Chen'er said that Teng'er is his sister, and he was adopted just after birth, and it is obvious that Jiujiu intends to look at him, but he has never heard of this, doesn't Jiujiu plan to reunite their father and daughter at all, thinking of this, the lord is very angry, since that official Tengxue is his daughter, how can he let her be exiled.
——
Speaking of Tengxue, Jiujiu couldn't help but recall what happened many years ago.
"Oops, it hurts, it hurts, ah, ah~." Man Qing grabbed the bed quilt hard, sweating profusely, and looked very painful, which was the scream of Man Qing's childhood at that time. Wei Hang heard these howls outside, his body and mind were twisted together, he kept wandering outside, he was so anxious that he couldn't stop, he really wanted to suffer this sin for Manqing, hearing these voices was even more uncomfortable than Manqing.
"You push harder, push harder, it's coming out, you have to hold on, it's going to be done soon, take a deep breath, yes, take a deep breath, and then force." Wen Po kept saying on the side.
"Wow, wow." With a cry, a little guy finally came out, a boy.
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, I can't do it."
"You are pregnant with twins, you have to continue to work hard, otherwise if you delay too long, both mother and child will be in danger, continue to work hard, hurry up and serve the ginseng soup, let her drink some ginseng soup."
Oh, no, there's one more out there, since it's for twins.
"No, I don't have the strength anymore."
"Manqing, don't give up, hold on a little longer, work harder, work harder, come, drink the ginseng soup." Ginseng was dug up by Wei Hang in the mountains.
After tossing for an hour, well, finally the two children were born into this world safely, Manqing wanted to see the children, but he was so tired that he passed out. Wei Hang was ecstatic to see the two children as if he were his own son, and he was willing to take care of them as if they were his own children.
Manqing became weak because of pregnancy, when she was pregnant with two children, due to insufficient nutrition, the children were not very healthy, often sick, and Manqing milk was also insufficient, which made the children more stunted, Weihang was also very worried about this, he used all his savings to recuperate the babies and see a doctor, there was really no way, the two babies were still very weak, and Manqing also had to make up for a long time to make up for the body, otherwise it would fall into the root of the disease, but here is a poor countryside, birds do not lay eggs, Although I occasionally dig up some ginseng herbs, the price is very low, and they are all sold cheaply, and there is little money.
Weihang then went to the more wealthy official family in the city to borrow money, Weihang often delivered goods to other places for this family, and the lord and wife of this official family are also kind and charitable people, Weihang was forced to helplessly, and wanted to advance some wages first, as long as Weihang helped them send a few more trips of goods, and a few more jobs could be paid off.
Wei Hang talked about Manqing's situation in general, and later the official may have mentioned this matter to his wife, but the official said that she would personally go to comfort Manqing and the baby, since the official wife is so kind-hearted, of course she can't ask for it, maybe she can help Manqing solve their urgent needs.
But after the official's wife saw the baby girl, she couldn't leave her hand: "Manqing, you see how close this child is with me, I laugh when I hug her, it's better to be like this, it is very difficult to bear two children with your current situation and living conditions, and the bodies of your mother and son are so in need of conditioning, as long as you are willing to give me this baby girl, I can cover all your living needs, and you can also make a price." "Mrs. Guan actually has three children, but unfortunately all three are boys, but Mrs. Guan just likes girls, and she can't have any more children, so she begged Manqing to give her the baby girl.
"Mrs. Guan, thank you for your kindness, but I won't let my daughter leave me, how can I, as a mother, sell my daughter."
Manqing heard that she was unwilling to sell her daughter to others, no matter how poor she was, she couldn't sell her daughter, she just asked Mrs. Guan to give a little help, so that they could tide over the difficulties, and she would definitely repay it in the future, if Mrs. Guan refused to lend a hand, she would think of other ways, but who could help them.
"Manqing, this is not a sale, you can come to visit her at any time after you give it to me, how can you take care of them if you can't even take care of yourself, you don't think about yourself but also think about the children, and, look at it, that Weihang runs around for you every day, I don't know how much work I do a day, he is not iron-clad, isn't he doing this for you, you can raise one less and have more subsidies This is the best of both worlds, you can rest assured, I promise you that I will definitely treat your daughter well and will not let her suffer." The official's wife said with a heartfelt persuasion. And Aunt Li, several villagers in their village also agreed with this matter.
Manqing refused to agree at first, Mrs. Guan was also patient, not in a hurry, not afraid of tossing, every day to bring a baby to Manqing, with tonic soup, obviously she herself has three babies, she is willing to put down her baby to the nurse servant, but she comes every day to help Manqing take the baby, and Wei is a foreign man, there are many inconveniences to take care of them, Jiujiu is the first time to be a mother and I don't understand anything, why the child is crying non-stop, she can't coax it, I don't understand.
She can only turn to Mrs. Guan for everything, Mrs. Guan did share a lot of her troubles, helped her a lot, and it can be regarded as a great kindness, and it can be seen that Mrs. Guan likes baby girls very much, and treats Teng'er as her own, and cherishes it very much, everyone knows that Mrs. Guan wants to give birth to a baby girl very much, but unfortunately after giving birth to three baby boys in a row, there is no rebirth.
If Mrs. Guan didn't come to help, Jiujiu wouldn't be able to take care of it at all, and Weihang would have to run for their livelihood, Jiujiu thought twice and finally reluctantly agreed. Mrs. Guan also put forward the truth that Manqing is the mother of the baby girl, hoping that everyone can keep it secret and not let Teng'er know, and Manqing can visit Teng'er as a nurse, and the villagers gradually forgot about Manqing and a daughter.
Because Manqing brought Chen'er with him every time he went to see Teng'er, Chen'er later accidentally overheard the conversation between his mother and Mrs. Guan, and only then did he know that Teng'er was his sister. And his mother didn't allow him to mention this matter, lest Teng'er know the truth when she grows up, after all, Teng'er is already someone else's daughter. The official family treats Teng'er really well, the whole family loves Teng'er very much, it is better than Teng'er suffering and starving with her.
