Chapter 218: The Great Drama of Wei Chi's Family
She couldn't sleep and thought of a lot of ways to contact the concubine, Wei Chi Jingde has two wives and two concubines, a total of four women, and three concubines, the concubine is a person with a lower rank than the concubine, the concubine may be a girl in the room, a companion room, and a woman sent by a colleague, or a generous housewife carried into the door when she was inconvenient to serve.
And the concubine is generally sold by the poor to sell their daughters, and they are raised by the status of a slave, which is a plaything-like existence, if a man is willing, he can give it to his own peak or other men to enjoy, so it is not worthy of keeping a child, because there is no guarantee that the concubine's belly is really his own species.
Liu is the second wife, she is an equal wife who can sit on an equal footing with the eldest lady Lin, and she can be regarded as the second in command of the Wei Chi family, she has no heirs under her knees, so the Lin family's fetal break cannot be kept.
Wei Chi Jingde has a lot of women, except for the concubine who is not allowed to conceive children, the others are also childless, this is also a matter worth scrutinizing, until the Lin family was diagnosed with pregnancy at the beginning of this year, which gave the Wei Chi family hope.
Two of Wei Chi's concubines were raised by girls, Aunt Mei used to be Liu's girl, and later became Wei Chi Jingde's roommate, Aunt Lan used to serve the old lady, and the Wei Chi family had no children, and the old lady couldn't help but stuff the big girl into her son's room.
These two concubines, Aunt Mei is naturally her own person, and Aunt Lan is an old lady, who belongs to the neutral faction, and no one can help anyone and control her.
Such a backyard is also very easy to take care of, so Lin has never had a headache with women in the backyard, she is now focused on raising a fetus, and the home feed is also handed back to the old lady to help.
Since she was diagnosed as pregnant, she was not allowed to go to crowded places, every day in her yard, even her parents asked her to go back to her parents' house to raise the baby, but she thought that the capital was too far away and did not want to go, and no housemother went back to her parents' house to raise the baby.
It was only in the near future that she regretted not listening to her parents, but unfortunately it was too late, and the price she paid made her regret it for the rest of her life.
On this day, the second lady Liu took Lan and Mei's two aunts and the old lady to say goodbye:
"Daughter-in-law/concubine to mother/old lady to say goodbye." The three women saluted the old lady softly, the old lady waved her hand to make everyone get up, and Aunt Lan naturally stepped forward to pinch the old lady's feet and beat her waist.
The old lady looked at the belly of the three of them and sighed, why didn't they move one by one? When will I be able to hold a lot of grandchildren?
"The daughter-in-law does not have the good life of her sister, and she has not added a son and a half daughter to the Wei Chi family, it is the fault of the daughter-in-law, and I ask my mother to punish her." Liu knelt down and confessed, like a sensible daughter-in-law, the old lady finally had a good face, this niece was left by her sister who married the village husband, so she never liked her, but her son was bewitched and had to marry her, otherwise she would not allow this woman to enter the door.
It is a fact that these women are not as good as Lin's life, she just wants these women to live in peace, and it is best not to disturb her daughter-in-law's rest.
"Old lady, Lan'er wondered if the lack of incense at home could be related to the fact that the women of our Weichi family did not burn incense and worship the Buddha?" Aunt Lan said suddenly. These words made the old lady's heart chuckle for a while, and she seemed to finally understand the reason.
It is said that the favorite of other women is to listen to Chan and chant sutras, only the old lady and the little maid of the Wei Chi family do not believe in this Buddha.
Speaking of this, Aunt Mei also understood what she meant, and she admired Liu a little that she could accept Aunt Lan's words, which showed that the two ladies were not simple.
At this time, Aunt Mei stepped forward and said:
"I heard that there is a nunnery in Qingshan Town that is very effective, why don't we accompany Sister Lin on a trip, so that we can also bless Sister Lin with a child, and we can also be happy, old lady, what do you say?" Aunt Mei was originally good-looking, but now she looks even more beautiful and beautiful.
The old lady was not happy when she heard that she wanted the Lin family to go in person, what else did the Lin family ask for if she was pregnant! As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked Liu to ask for Buddha instead of Lin.
"Mother-in-law, if the daughter-in-law is pregnant, the daughter-in-law will naturally go to the Buddha to ask for a child immediately, but my sister and I are not alone, I am not impossible to ask for a child on my behalf, but I am afraid that the sincerity is not enough, and the Bodhisattva will not see our minds,"
Mrs. Wei Chi looked at Liu's respectful expression, and also felt that it was more sincere to go in person, but the doll that this daughter-in-law was so easy to conceive was just the full moon when it was the most unstable, so she was afraid that it would be difficult to take care of it when she went out.
"If the mother-in-law is not at ease, the concubine will ask the master, if the master is free, he can also let the master accompany us, so that the bodhisattva can also see the sincerity of our Weichi family." Seeing that the old lady was not at ease, Liu continued to persuade.
The old lady of Yu Chi groaned for a while and said that she had to ask what Jingde meant, and the implication was that she agreed, and Liu said that she would talk to Yu Chi Jingde about it.
In order to let Yu Chi Jingde also agree to Lin's going out, Liu's really took great pains every night, but Yuchi Jingde was not young, and it was easy to have a sister-in-law It was really nervous Lin and the one in her stomach, no matter how soft and hard Liu's was, he said that he was not at ease Lin walked out of the house.
Liu couldn't keep persuading for fear of being discovered, so he had to suppress his emotions and find a way to solve the matter in private.
"Madam, the old slave has an idea, but it's a bit of a risk, can you take a look?" Zhang's mother whispered that she also hated the housemother and couldn't let the Liu family replace her immediately, just because such a person not only pressed on Liu's head, but also on the head of this old woman who was used to being a fox and a fake tiger.
When Liu heard this, he immediately asked her what her plan was? Now as long as she can get the Lin family to the place where she can drop that piece of meat, she is willing to do it herself.
"Madam, the old slave thinks that the old lady and the old man both care about the piece of meat in the Lin family's belly, but if a famous doctor says that the person in the belly is a girl, and we have to let some ordinary people praise the Nine Sons of Our Lady Guanyin in Qingshan Town, you say that the old lady and the old man who are eager to ask for a son can still be calm?" Zhang's mother said her idea.
Liu was overjoyed when he heard this, and praised Zhang's mother for her good idea, and gave her a sum of money for her to arrange, as long as she can eradicate the big trouble in her heart now, she is very happy.
"Now I want to find a doctor who is famous in Qingzhou City to be a lobbyist, and writing may require Mrs. to go out in person, but don't worry, Mrs. will pretend to be unrecognizable." This is the reason why Zhang's mother hesitated just now, because if she wants Liu to go out in person, she may have taboos.
It's just that she underestimated Liu's hatred and poisoned Lin's heart, and when Liu heard this idea, she even took out her own silver money at the bottom of the box to let her arrange it properly.
"What do you think of Xue Niangzi of Qianjintang? This person is a well-known gynecological saint in Qingzhou City, if she accidentally saw Lin and said that she was pregnant with a female fetus, would it be very effective? Liu thought about it, it is inconvenient for ordinary doctors to casually see the fetus with women, only this Xue Niangzi is the most suitable.
Zhang's mother nodded again and again, saying that we can let people find the other party's handle first, and once we catch the other party's handle, we can use that person for our own use.
Liu reminded Zhang's mother that Xue Niangzi would handle it herself, but the matter of creating public opinion was to be handed over to Zhang's mother, and Zhang's mother hurriedly nodded yes, in fact, it didn't take much energy to create the topic of the Virgin of the Nine Sons, and the matter of the Virgin of the Nine Sons managing the heirs has always been legendary among the folk.
She just needs to let her people spark more discussions in this regard, especially the kind of thing that was obviously sentenced by the doctor to have a female fetus, but she took the fetus to the Blessed Mother of the Nine Sons and was favored by the Bodhisattva, and gave birth to a son ten months later.
"Madam, don't worry, the old slave will definitely make you beautiful, you just have to wait to see a good show, as long as you think that it won't be long before the woman and the cheap maid of the green rui can no longer be so happy, the old slave feels very happy!" Zhang's mother said sadly.
If Yu Shu was present, she would definitely feel that this mother's image was familiar, just like Mama Rong who always played tricks for the queen on TV before.
Liu asked again if the arrangements had been made in Qingshan Town? Don't be ready here, and the other side has not been arranged, but Zhang's mother is very sure that it can't, her son is now taking that person to block the shop every day, and with the accumulation of her son's skills in the casino for many years, it is easy to listen to a size, so now it is to take that person to win money every day, and the money smashed into it is also from copper plate to silver, and then to more and more silver, seeing that the other party has been addicted, he can slowly close the net.
Hearing this, Liu nodded with satisfaction and asked Zhang's mother and son, where are the funds still enough? If it is not enough, you can go to the account room to withdraw it, Zhang's mother thought about it, and asked Liu for another sum of money, ready to bring it back to her son later.
When Zhang's mother was older, Liu's didn't let her vigil work so hard, and she was allowed to go home after she finished her work.
Her home is in Qingzhou City, she goes home every day, but her son can only come back every few days because he wants to work in Qingshan Town, she handed over the money to her daughter-in-law and told her a few words to let her go to Qingshan Town to find her son, anyway, her daughter-in-law does not have to come out to work, only need to take the doll at home, now there is so much more silver in her hand, listen to the mother-in-law This money is very important, she did not dare to delay the time, and the next morning took a carriage to and from the town to Qingshan Town.
It turns out that Qingzhou is a big city, with many towns underneath, for the convenience of people's lives, the prefect of Qingzhou, Lord Lu, opened a public carriage connecting the city and the town, similar to the buses of later generations, and each person got on the bus for two cents.
The daughter-in-law of the Zhang family sat in a carriage that had been converted into a carriage, and a long wooden board was booked on each side of the carriage as a substitute, and there were more than a dozen people on both sides of the long carriage.
