Now Xia Mai is like a mandarin duck next to the old lady, commanding more than a dozen maids under her to keep putting the dishes on the table.

Then Xia Mai came to Aunt Zhou's side, and said respectfully: "Auntie, the meal has been arranged, when will we eat?" ”

After listening to this, Aunt Zhou said to Qiaolian, who was sitting next to her: "It's time to eat, don't think about those troubles." Come to think of your time hasn't come yet. ”

So Aunt Zhou took Qiaolian to the table and started to eat together.

Qiao Lian was not polite to Aunt Zhou at all, picked up the chopsticks and added a piece to the squirrel osmanthus fish in the middle. This is also Qiaolian's favorite dish, under normal circumstances, Aunt Zhou never serves this dish if Qiaolian doesn't come. Because although Aunt Zhou is living a luxurious life now, she can't get rid of the nature of the little family? For these expensive dishes are never ordered.

Don't look at this small plate of squirrel osmanthus fish, you can't do it without a dozen taels of silver. Other seasonings are easy to say, mainly because this osmanthus fish is rare, and must be salvaged alive from Jiangsu, and then transported to Tongzhou by fast boat, and the water must be changed four or five times in the middle, so that when it arrives in Tongzhou, there are only one-tenth or two-tenths of the fish alive. In the end, he picked the spirit of it and sent it to the palaces and nobles. It takes a lot of effort to make just one plate of fish, which is enough for an ordinary person's income for a year.

That is, Aunt Zhou has Jia Ke's orders, so she doesn't care about money, and there are officials from all over the country who are filial piety. Therefore, there is no shortage of this osmanthus fish in Jiafu, even if it is not something that ordinary people can enjoy, there are only four or five pieces left every day, ready for the masters to eat. Now there are only three or four people who can eat this dish casually in Jiafu, and Aunt Zhou happens to be one of them.

Even if Jia Yu, the eldest man in the mansion next to him, wants to eat this fish, he has to give instructions to the big kitchen a day or two in advance. Give the big kitchen time to order an extra one. Otherwise, he can't help it even if he wants to eat temporarily.

Speaking of which, this is also the reason why Jia Yu is not in charge of the family, although his treatment is the same as Jia Zheng, but who let Mrs. Wang now be in charge of the entire Rongguo Mansion, there is still a little lacking in the subtle treatment compared to Jia Zheng.

Qiao Lian put the chopsticks fish in her mouth, chewed it carefully, spit it on the plate next to her, and then ran out alone holding her chest.

When Aunt Zhou saw Qiaolian like this, she immediately ordered someone to go out to watch, for fear that something would happen to her.

After a while, Qiaolian was helped back by the little maid, Qiaolian sat down on the table again, and immediately complained to Aunt Zhou, "Auntie, it's time for you to talk about your cook, make a fish, now the smell of fish is so big." I also didn't let the masters eat it, and cooks like this would have been pulled out and killed in our house a long time ago. ”

"You can keep some morality, how old are you, and you don't have a door in your mouth like when you were a child." Aunt Zhou reprimanded Qiaolian, and at the same time added a piece of squirrel osmanthus fish and tasted it in her mouth, "What are you talking nonsense about this kid, today's fish is better than usual." ”

"No way, the fishy smell I just tasted was very strong." Qiao Lian didn't believe it, and added another chopstick to her mouth, and sure enough, a pungent fishy smell scurried around her mouth and nose.

As a result, Qiao Ling ran out again, Aunt Zhou, you don't know what's going on in this situation, so she immediately ordered the maid next to her to go out and take care of Qiao Lian quickly, for fear that she would make a mistake.

When Qiao Lian came in from outside the house again, Aunt Zhou was already waiting for her at the door of the house, and as soon as Qiao Lian entered the door, she immediately helped her to the bed next to her and sat down.

"Qiaolian, do you have any other discomfort besides nausea? How are you eating these days? Aunt Zhou asked cautiously.

"There's nothing else to feel uncomfortable, the main thing is that today's fish is not doing well, I have eaten more than before these days, I feel fatter than before, wait for two days to be hungry, otherwise the fat will be gone." The more Qiao Lian spoke, the lower her voice became, and she seemed to have realized something.

Qiao Lian stared at Aunt Zhou in disbelief and asked, "Auntie, no... It can't be there, right? There was surprise and a little fear in his voice.

Aunt Zhou finally showed a smile on her face at this time, "I see that you have it, don't move yet." I'll call a doctor for you right now. ”

After Aunt Zhou finished speaking to Qiaolian, she turned around and called Xia Mai, "Xia Mai, come here." ”

"Auntie, what do you command?" Xia Mai hurriedly trotted over.

"Go and get the doctor your uncle prepared for me." Aunt Zhou's tone couldn't help but rise when she said this.

She is the only one who has a special doctor in the entire Rongguo Mansion, and even the old lady does not have such treatment. Therefore, every time she talked about it, her tone couldn't help but be raised.

The doctor she said, her husband's surname is Wang, her mother's surname is Li, and her father is a famous doctor in the capital, but later the family was unfortunate, and her father and husband died one after another, leaving her alone. Because she didn't give birth to a boy and half a girl, her in-laws didn't want to see her and kicked her out of the house.

In the end, Jia Ke recruited a doctor from the house because Qin Keqing was pregnant, so he came to apply, Jia Ke sent someone to inquire about her details, and let people test her medical skills. Only then did he promise to keep her and promise to provide for her in old age, which took her heart and let her take care of Qin Keqing in the Wuyang Marquis Mansion with peace of mind. Later, Qin Keqing was safe in production, and she was personally sent to Aunt Zhou by Qin Keqing, which can be regarded as Qin Keqing and Jia Ke's filial piety to Aunt Zhou. Even Jia's mother has never had such treatment, so Aunt Zhou feels a sense of pride every time she mentions him.

After a while, Wang Li came, and after entering the door, he first greeted Aunt Zhou, and only nodded to Qiaolian, even if it was a salute.

"Quick, show Qiaolian and see if she has it. I just ate a piece of fish, and I vomited. I think it's similar to when I was pregnant with your uncle. Aunt Zhou said at this time, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional, she fought hard for Jia Ke back then, if it weren't for the old lady's kindness, there would be no Jia Ke today. Just for this, she remembered the old lady for the rest of her life. Even if the old lady didn't treat her anymore and didn't see her anymore, she didn't take it to heart. I only thought about the old lady's life-saving grace to Jia Ke.

After listening to Aunt Zhou's words, Wang Li looked at Qiao Lian's face carefully, and then came to Qiao Lian's side, and then took out a pulse pillow from the medicine box he carried and put it on the head of the bed, and then put Qiao Lian's hand on the pulse pillow to give her a pulse.

Wang Li carefully tasted Qiaolian's pulse, and after a while, a smile appeared on his mouth, and then he got up and said to Aunt Zhou: "Congratulations to Aunt Zhou, this little Aunt Zhou's pulse is fluent, and it should be referred to as sleek, like a bead." I'm really happy to see it, and if I watch it well, it should be two months. ”

Aunt Zhou's face was full of joy when she heard this, and she hurriedly ordered Xia Mai next to her to take out more than a dozen golden melon seeds and give them as a thank you gift to Wang Li's family. Then he ordered Xia Mai to send Wang Li away.

After Aunt Zhou sent Wang Li away, she happily returned to the house, and looked at Qiaolian who was still lying on the bed and smirking motionless.

After Aunt Zhou left, she tapped her finger on her head, "You crazy girl, why are you so big?" If you hadn't come to me today, you'd be bouncing around like this, and if something happens, you'd regret going. ”

Qiao Lian hugged Aunt Zhou all of a sudden, buried her head in Aunt Zhou's arms, and cried wow-wow-wow. The pressure on her this year has been really a lot, she is not like Lanxiang and Chuncao. She has a family in Rongguo Mansion, and as Jia Ke's status gets higher and higher, and even now she is a very popular minister, the family's expectations for her are getting bigger and bigger, and even Aunt Zhou keeps urging her, because her stomach is related to the status of the Zhou family in Jia Mansion in the future.

With Jia Ke's current identity, even if he is a concubine, his future will not be much worse, although he can't inherit the Wuyang Marquis Mansion, but he can still be an official.

And Qiaolian herself regards Aunt Zhou as her idol, looking forward to the children she will give birth to in the future like Jia Ke, and she will enjoy endless glory and wealth.

As a result, after waiting for so many years, she was finally able to get pregnant, and for more than a year, her stomach did not move. This made Qiao Lian not anxious, how many times did she hide in the quilt and cry alone. I'm really afraid that I've been taking medicine for all these years, and she will scold Lan Xiang every time she comes.

Aunt Zhou looked at Qiaolian who was crying in her arms, and knew her hard work during this time, so she was busy touching her back and gently comforting her, "Okay, don't cry, our Qiaolian is about to become a mother." It's not good to cry again. ”

After Aunt Zhou's constant persuasion, Qiao Lian finally gradually put away her crying, and now she buried her head in Aunt Zhou's arms and laughed when she ate.

Aunt Zhou saw that Qiao Lian was fine, and hurriedly said to Qiao Lian: "I made trouble for so long just now, and now you are hungry." Hurry up and grab a bite to eat, you're not alone now. Think about the baby in your belly. ”

After listening to Zhou Yingyang's words, Qiao Lian immediately nodded in agreement, so with the support of Aunt Zhou, she came to the dining table again.

As a result, as soon as Qiao Lian sat down, she couldn't stand it when she saw the plate of fish in the middle. Covering your mouth is about to vomit again.

When Aunt Zhou saw this scene, she hurriedly said to Xia Mai next to her: "This plate of fish will be rewarded to you, hurry up and withdraw it." ”

Xia Mai next to her immediately smiled after hearing this, but she knew the preciousness of this plate of fish. Now this plate of fish has only been passed in two bites, and it is almost complete. It's good to take it back now and give it to your family, otherwise they'll never be able to taste such a delicacy in their lifetime.

Qiao Lian saw that she had withdrawn the fish, so she put down the hand that was in her mouth. I don't know if it's a psychological effect, or if it's really an appetite. Qiaolian only felt that she had never been so hungry as she was now, and she actually ate half of the dishes on the table.

Aunt Zhou, who was next to her, was also startled when she saw this situation, and hurriedly stopped her, for fear that she would eat something good.

In the afternoon, Aunt Zhou specially let Qiaolian go back in her soft sedan chair, and there were two maids next to her, these people were originally by Aunt Zhou's side, and now they were given to Qiaolian by Aunt Zhou, so as to serve her during her pregnancy.
