Chapter 597: Childbirth is imminent
Liu Wenjing was transferred to Daxing County and assumed the position of the county magistrate from Liupin, there was no suspense, it had already become a foregone conclusion, and there were no twists and turns halfway, and there were no thrilling changes. From beginning to end, the official documents of the ministry were sent to his own hands, and it was completely smooth.
Liu Wenjing, who has already begun to make comprehensive arrangements, pack up everything, and want to move out of Jiangxi as soon as possible and go to Daxing to take office, is in a good mood, and naturally will not forget that before going to office, he must go to the capital to visit Li Wenxuan, and at the same time, he has to go to his colleagues who are the same year and have friendships. He has been in the officialdom for so many years, and he knows even more clearly that there is no reason to go empty-handed. Although he spent 20,000 taels of silver before, he knew very well in his heart that he would get it back in the future. Therefore, Liu Wenjing, who went to Beijing this time, still had to bring some better "special products" to give away.
After a trip back to his hometown, he was considered to be able to do things, and then through the strong recommendation of his master Zhou Hu in front of the master, he was soon promoted to the position of a steward in the Li Mansion. The degree of food and clothing, identity and status have changed greatly, so that he seems to be complacent, and he is a little fluttering, he is young and ambitious, but he is not unsuccessful, after all, he is the youngest steward in the Li Mansion.
Today's big head, inside and outside the house, not only holds his head high, his hands are often cut behind his back, he walks like an uncle, and the tone of his speech has also changed a lot. Of course, all this is when he faces the servants in the mansion who are lower than himself, as well as the small fish and shrimp in the market.
At the same time, the leopard, who was also a disciple of Zhou Hu, felt uneasy every time he saw the other party's appearance. Even if you don't compare it openly, you will compare yourself with the big head in the dark, but it's not all jealousy. It's not pleasing to the eye, but I'm not satisfied with such a great opportunity to get face in front of the master, how was it arranged by the master to give the big head, not himself, so that he could be promoted to the position of steward, and missed. It is necessary to talk about filial piety. Martial arts, hard work...... The leopard always thinks that he is the best, far more prosperous than the big head. The reason for the bad luck is because of the master's eccentricity.
Chu Hanlu, who is also in the limelight in the Li Mansion, although she is as careful as ever in behaving and doing things, her mother Song Jingui and younger brother Chu Hantian have raised a lot of arrogance with her favor. For the well-informed. Since he slowly knew the reason for this, he became more and more polite and at the same time, he would not forget to further befriend the Chu family, so as to increase the relevant investment.
On this day, Su Meiniang, who still hadn't completely come out of the last setback, was standing alone in the courtyard of Qiushuangzhai admiring the flowers, when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and her feet became weak. sat directly on the ground. I lowered my head and saw her with her water broken. On the one hand, he looked a little frightened, and on the other hand, he shouted again and again: "Someone! Where did the slaves die one by one? ”
Originally, I also heard Su Meiniang's spring, summer, and winter fragrances, but she had a lot more eyes than autumn fragrance. The three of them all knew that if they were the first to rush to the master without a brain. must be the most unflattering, and she will even directly reward several big mouths, after all, the master's character dictates. So, they pretended not to hear it, and they were more determined than anyone else. Hold still.
Of course, I also heard the sound, and there was a lack of a band of autumn fragrance in my head, so I instinctively followed the sound to look out, and was immediately shocked. She was so anxious that she cried, and her face changed greatly, and she didn't dare to step forward to help her master, so she had to turn her back and expand her voice to the limit: "Chunxiang, Xiaxiang, Dongxiang, come quickly!" Madame fell. ”
As soon as Chunxiang heard this, Xia Xiang and Dong Xiang said "ah" in unison, and ran out directly. The three of them all knew that if the master was not pregnant and fell to the ground, it would be big or small, and the problem would not be big, so it would not matter. However, it just so happened that Su Meiniang was pregnant with Liujia and was about to give birth. So, it's a big deal. If you continue to pretend to be confused, pretend not to hear, and don't show up, I'm afraid you'll die even worse afterwards.
After a while, the four incense, whose faces were extremely ugly, gathered around the master's close body, but they didn't know what to do at all. At this time, Su Meiniang, although she was a person who had come over from men and women, was also a woman who was pregnant with a child for the first time and was about to give birth. With no experience at all, her instinctive first reaction was to know that she couldn't move casually.
Su Meiniang, who was sweating all over her forehead and was still sober, didn't have time to reprimand them at the moment, but directly ordered: "What are you still doing stupidly with a few pestles." One of them is going to be alone, and he invited the eldest lady to me! ”
Chunxiang and Xia Xiang, who reacted, looked at each other and went without leaving, after all, they were not selfless and worried that they would be blamed by their masters for running slowly or something. And Qiu Xiang, who didn't think much about it, turned around and rushed out quickly. Looking at her back in the distance, Dongxiang, although she hesitated, but there was no little Jiujiu in Chunxiang and Xia Xiang's heart.
"Otherwise, I'll go and tell the master, after all, with him, don't worry about anything." Xia Xiang, who thought she had shaken a clever person, didn't want to stand here and do nothing, so she asked.
"You idiot. At the moment, the master is still in the official office. When you run to tell the master, I'm afraid the daylilies are cold. "Chunxiang, who has always been at odds with her and a competitor, said unceremoniously.
"If you're smart, you've come up with a foolproof solution! I'm listening to your tricks. Nameless Huo couldn't restrain it all of a sudden, and came out, and then Xia Xiang, who sneered, said angrily.
"What are you two arguing about. Now, the three of us have to do what Madame has to do. Dong Xiang, who made a decision immediately, squatted down early, supported Su Meiniang who was in pain, and stopped.
I had to keep my mouth shut, and Chunxiang and Xiaxiang, who didn't dare to continue arguing, were not fools. Even if the master can't speak for a while, he has to obey Dongxiang's orders, after all, the other party is the chief maid of Qiu Shuangzhai. The three of them were very nervous and heavy in their hearts, for fear that Su Meiniang and the fetus in her womb would have a case. If this master had made a mistake because of this, then they wouldn't have nothing to do. At that time, whether or not he can live will become a question. (To be continued......)
