Chapter 170: Do your best

"Brother Hening." Chen Jingting's eyes stayed on Xu Hening: "I heard that Bai Wangyuan's daughter is going to marry Qing Shizi, do you know this?" ”

"Yingying?" Xu Hening couldn't help but be stunned.

"What? Surprised, right? I can't figure it out, with the status of Qing Shizi, how can he marry a daughter of a small Luo'an City County Order, Bai Wangyuan is a man, and the journey can be counted as a bloody capital. ”

"Ying Ying has become the princess, and Bai Wangyuan can naturally rise step by step." Xu Hening chuckled shamelessly.

"Humph! I'm afraid that the wishful thinking will come to naught, Bai Yingying marrying Qing Shizi is just an inconspicuous side concubine, and the status of the side concubine is equivalent to that of ordinary people's concubines, what do you think Bai Wangyuan can be promoted to with this? ”

"Side concubine?" Xu Hening was slightly stunned, "Bai Wangyuan despises his daughter so much? ”

"Humph!" Chen Jingting sneered disdainfully, "Otherwise, why would he move to the left and rise in his life?" He's in ruin. ”

Xu Hening had a burst of Weng Ming in his ears, Bai Wangyuan wanted to take advantage of the happiness of his daughter's life for the sake of his official career. For some reason, he felt a little distressed about Bai Yingying, no wonder she confessed to herself regardless of her reserve, but she suddenly let go after a few days.

It turned out that she had known for a long time.

Although he refused to accept Bai Yingying, he still felt sorry for the stepping stone on the way when he learned that Bai Yingying was regarded by her father as a leader.

Chen Jingting knew a little bit of the inside story, squinted at Xu Hening and quipped: "What? Do you regret it? Bai Yingying confessed to you, you really don't have a heartbeat, she looks okay. ”

In addition to a trace of regret on Xu Hening's face, there was no look of heartache and remorse, "If it were you, would you agree." ”

Chen Jingting suddenly couldn't laugh, his expression was serious: "Am I such a casual person?" ”

"That's not it, feelings are something you want to do, it's not someone who asks you, and you feel pitiful and will give alms. On the contrary, for the person you love, you do not count the gains and losses, but only wish her peace and joy, which is satisfaction. ”

Unconsciously, what came to Xu Hening's mind was Du Lan's bright and moving face, knowing that she was Mrs. Gu, but he still couldn't resist any opportunity to get close to her.

"It's delicious, Brother Hening, you can eat a piece too." Chen Jingting pulled out a smile and took a piece of reunion cake and handed it to Xu Hening.

didn't want Xu Hening to suffer, Chen Jingting changed the topic.

Xu Hening smiled lightly and shook his head: "You can keep it and eat slowly, I still have business to take care of, and I will come back to you when things are dealt with." ”

"Don't, I've told the cook to cook, come all the way to Shengjing, brother, I must give you the wind and wash the dust, otherwise you won't be able to get out of the gate of my Chen Mansion." Chen Jingting insisted on retaining.

Xu Hening couldn't brush it off, nodded and stayed.

In the Xu Mansion in Luo'an City, Master Xu was sitting alone in the study, and Xu Baoqing went over to report: "Master, the second young lady is safe and sound." ”

"Hmm." Master Xu picked up the brush, dipped it in some ink, and waved it freely on the rice paper, and his frowning brows gradually relaxed.

"What's going on with the second young lady? Why did I suddenly get tire gas? ”

Steward Xu's face immediately froze, leaned over to Mr. Xu's ear and whispered something, Mr. Xu's face suddenly sank, and he threw the brush in his hand onto the paper: "Bold!" She did this kind of thing in private, and I shouldn't have agreed to let her in the first place. ”

At first, if it weren't for Mrs. Chen's face, he would not have let Xu Heming marry an unmarried and unashamed country girl who was pregnant. Since she entered the door, she had to do her duty, but she didn't know that she was so vicious that she refused to let go of the fetus in her womb.

Such a woman with an improper heart is afraid that she will ruin the Xu family, and even if she gives birth to a child, she is afraid that she will have to teach a bad child.

"Baoqing, bring the second son, and say that I have something to tell him."

"Yes, sir."

On the other side, Mrs. Xu returned to the house, and the doctor who treated Gu Chunyan was already waiting under the eaves.

"Madame!" The doctor stepped forward to salute.

"Come in and sit down." Mrs. Xu politely invited.

The doctor bowed his head respectfully and followed him into the room.

"This Gu Chunyan is simply too hateful, as the saying goes, tigers don't eat children, she actually plays conspiracy behind her back and can even use her own children, she slips the fetus, and Mrs. Ben's responsibility is great. If she succeeds, the lord has no choice but to ask Mrs. Ben. Fortunately, Mrs. Ben was on guard against her from the beginning, so she sent someone to spy on her secretly, but I didn't expect to be caught by me. ”

Her maid sneaked out of the house, and Mrs. Xu's people followed behind, saw her enter the medicine hall, and spent money to buy the doctor in advance, and the doctor knew that the matter was very important, so he deliberately gave the slippery pill into a fetal pill.

Gu Chunyan was vicious, and mixed the medicine into the reunion cake, which was brought home by her son Xu Hening, if something really happened to Gu Chunyan, her son would definitely become a scapegoat, and then the entire Xu Mansion would think that she and her son were worried that Gu Chunyan would give birth to an eldest grandson, so they would do something to the reunion cake behind their backs to murder her.

Especially Xu Heming, the rebel, has long hated her, and if he mistakenly thinks that she and Hening hurt his wife, he will not be able to kill him with a knife. The most important thing is that if Gu Chunyan succeeds, they can't tell if they have a mouth.

"Mrs. Xu, what else does the old man have to do?" The doctor stood aside with his hands down.

"What she has in her stomach is a ......" Mrs. Xu didn't say it explicitly, but her eyes said it all.

"It's a bargain." The doctor said obediently.

Mrs. Xu narrowed her eyes, and a smug glint flashed in her eyes, "Doctor, as the head mother of the Xu family, I should naturally protect the heirs of the Xu Mansion, and you must use the best medicine to protect the fetus for the young lady of my family." ”

"Yes, the old man understands."

Mrs. Xu didn't want to get along with anyone at first, but Xu Heming and her cheap lady have provoked her three or four times since they entered the door, intending to take away her position as a wife.

However, people are not as good as heaven, and in the end, she failed to bring herself down, but hurt herself to a thousand holes, and finally died of depression. Xu Heming's unfilial son has hated herself since then, and she has had enough of his vexatious troubles over the years.

It is said that the turtle is matched with Wang Ba, this Wang Ba Lamb is married to Gu Chunyan, a woman who does not stop, and the Xu Mansion will be lively in the future.

When Gu Chunyan gave birth to a child in October, she didn't have to fight herself, she would have no face to toss herself.

"In the future, you will often come over to ask the young lady for a pulse to ensure the health of my heirs of the Xu Mansion."

"Yes, the old man remembered."

Mrs. Xu waved her hand and signaled that the doctor could leave.

If the master knew that she was doing her best to take care of Gu Chunyan, he would definitely praise him.

After Gu Zhiping and Xu Cui'e heard the news, they gathered a basket of eggs from the neighbors in the village, and hurriedly went to Xu Mansion to visit their daughter.

When Mrs. Xu heard that someone from Shanwa Village had come, she just waved her hand lightly and asked them to let people in, and did not go out of the house to greet her, you must know that in her eyes, only a dignified and virtuous woman like Mrs. Chen is the real in-law.

The subordinates took Gu Zhiping and Xu Cui'e to Gu Chunyan's courtyard, and explained with a smile that the lady was unwell, so they didn't have to be polite to treat them as their own home.

Gu Zhiping and Xu Cui'e believed it and hurriedly entered the room where Gu Chunyan was.

"Swallow, what's wrong with you? The first few months were not to be careless. As soon as Xu Cui'e entered the door, she walked to the bed.

Gu Chunyan was lying on the bed, and when she heard her mother come in, she sat up.

"Don't, don't, lie down." Xu Cui'e nervously trotted over and personally helped Gu Chunyan to lie down again.

Gu Chunyan instructed the maid of the Chen Mansion: "There is no need to serve here, you go down first." ”

"Yes, young lady." The maid bowed respectfully and withdrew, followed by the maid of the Xu Mansion who was waiting in the house.

When the door was closed, and only her own people were left in the house, Xu Cui'e farted and sat on the edge of Gu Chunyan's bed, "Yanzi, why did you almost have a miscarriage so carelessly?" ”

As a man, Gu Zhiping did not enter the inner room, but sat at the table in the outer room, listening to their mother and daughter talk. The table in the outer room was full of snacks and fruits, and it was rare to eat them once a year when studying literature and martial arts, but this time they could satisfy their cravings, and the two children sat on the stool and ate them.

Gu Zhiping interrupted their mother and daughter's words and said, "Why do you mention unhappy things as soon as you come in, Yanzi, you have a good rest, and if you don't want to say it, don't say it." ”

"I just care about the child, why can't I ask?" Xu Cui'e rolled her eyes outside the house, "I don't feel sorry for my daughter, who feels sorry for my daughter, she almost had a miscarriage, can I not worry?" ”

Gu Chunyan took Xu Cui'e's hand: "Mother, I'm fine." ”

Xu Cui'e glanced at her, "What's the matter, look at you, your face is so ugly." ”

Gu Zhiping was also nervous about his daughter, and walked in to see, "Girl, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, I'm fine." Gu Chunyan smiled and shouted at the scholar outside the house: "If you don't have enough dim sum, ask someone outside." ”

"Got it, auntie." Learn literature, Wu Hu eats Hesedi, and responds.

Gu Chunyan moved her body inside and asked Gu Zhiping to sit down as well, "Dad, I have something to tell you." ”

Seeing his daughter's solemn expression, Gu Zhiping didn't take it seriously, sat down, and said in a low voice: "Girl, if you have anything, just say it." ”

Gu Chunyan took out a stack of silver tickets from under the pillow, "Dad, you can collect this thousand taels of silver tickets, go back and decorate the house, and change a generous plaque at the door, now I am the young lady of the Xu Mansion, you always follow the light, so that the people in the village are also envious." ”

"Girl, you are so worried about your mother's family, how can my father thank you." Gu Zhiping smiled from ear to ear, reached out and took a stack of silver tickets, his eyes firmly locked on the silver tickets.

Xu Cui'e also smiled, "It's still the daughter's filial piety, and the two of us can follow the daughter's happiness." As he spoke, his mouth turned outward, "Just the two outside, it's not enough for us to fill the hole." ”

Gu Chunyan knew that her mother said something against her heart, and complimented: "You are also willing to make the two holes, if you don't have these two treasures at home, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh no matter how many silver tickets you hold in your hands." ”

This is true, Xu Cui'e laughed even more after hearing it.

"Girl, you don't have to give so much silver. You always plan for yourself. Xu Cui'e couldn't bear to say.

"Mother, this silver is to honor you. The daughter doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and she can't spend money for the time being. Also, my daughter doesn't want you to live a superior life in the village. ”

"Well, well, daughter, it's enough for you to have this thought, half of this money daddy is enough, and you can keep the rest for emergencies." Although no one dislikes money as hot, in the end, he also hopes that his daughter's life will be easier.

"Dad, you must accept this money, there is a place to help your daughter in the future." Gu Chunyan confided a little cautiously.

Listening to the words, Gu Zhiping and Xu Cui'e glanced at each other nervously, could it be that their daughter was in trouble?
