"Mother Wen, have you heard any movement over there in the Snow Pavilion?" Zhong Xiaoniang asked Wen's mother while eating.

Mother Wen replied: "Back to Zhong Xiaoniang, not yet!" ”

"Not yet? What time is this? You don't have enough medicine, do you? Today is the only chance, and if we miss it, then we will really be trampled under our feet, stepped into the mud, and it will be even more difficult to turn over again. ”

"Zhong Xiaoniang rest assured, this dosage is absolutely not wrong, it is exactly one moment at this time, and the medicine should take effect in two hours. There is still a quarter of an hour, Zhong Xiaoniang, you can finish breakfast with peace of mind and sit back and wait for the show to come on. Mother Wen replied eloquently.

"Hey, hey!" Zhong Xiaoniang sneered, her eyes were full of murder, and she continued to eat the small half bowl of lotus seed barley porridge in the bowl.

At two o'clock, listening to the Snow Pavilion, Lu's bedroom.

Lu Shi was awakened by a sudden sharp pain, she clutched her dustpan-like stomach, and screamed in pain.

"Mother Lu, Mother Lu......" She endured the pain and woke up Mother Lu, who was sleeping behind the screen.

Lu's mother was married from her mother's family, and of course she was the most trustworthy person. Since she became pregnant, Lu's mother has been working on the floor in Lu's bedroom every night so that she can take care of Lu's at any time.

When Lu's mother heard the sound, she got up from the ground violently, picked up the coat that was resting aside, and walked in the direction of Lu's bed while dressing.

Lu Shi turned left and right on the couch in pain, and his expression was extremely painful.

Lu's mother wiped the beads of sweat from Lu's forehead, grabbed Lu's hand that was trembling with pain, and asked urgently: "Little mother, what's wrong with you?" Is it about to give birth? ”

"It hurts, it should be about to give birth, Mother Lu should go and ask the midwife to come." Lu Shi grabbed Lu's mother's hand tightly and grabbed a few deep crescent marks from Lu's mother's palm. It can be seen that she is really in pain.

"Okay, little lady, bear with me, the slave woman will let Poria go to ask the midwife." After that, Lu's mother was about to go out in a hurry.

At this time, Lu Shi grabbed Lu's mother's hand tightly, endured the pain and whispered: "Mother Lu, you lean over a little, I have something to tell you." ”

Lu's mother squatted down, and in order to make Lu's speech less difficult, she deliberately put her ear to Lu's mouth.

Lu Shi laboriously took out a paper bag from under the long embroidered soft pillow, handed it to Lu's mother's palm, and said intermittently: "Mother Lu, you take this with you, don't make a noise, wait for the midwife to come, you can find a way to put the tea in the tea for her to drink." ”

Sima Guansheng understood that this was a midwife invited by his father, and they couldn't find a reason not to use it anyway. So he could only choose to use this drugging method to stop Zhong Xiaoniang's conspiracy.

But the Lu family always needs a midwife, let others find it, not only is she not at ease, but the Lu family must also be even more worried, so she handed over this arduous task to the hands of the Lu family's mother.

Mother Lu looked at the small paper bag in her hand, her face was full of doubts, she wanted to ask, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed back. Putting the paper bag into his arms, he said softly: "Little lady, the slave woman has written it down." The slave woman went out to give an account, and soon returned. ”

After that, Mother Lu went out to wake up the entire maid and wife in Tingxue Pavilion, and urged Poria to invite the midwife.

Listening to the snow pavilion, it became brightly lit and noisy, and the maids and women were busy preparing to produce things to be used. Inside and outside the house, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, and the threshold of Lu's bedroom was almost flattened.

Hot water, hot tea, ginseng soup, brown sugar water, scissors, and bedding were all moved to the room one after another.

Sima Daiyu was also woken up, rubbing her hazy sleepy eyes, waiting in front of Lu's couch, looking at the painful Lu, she woke up, showed a pitiful expression, looked at Lu stupidly, and didn't say a word.

Mother Lu woke up the subordinates who listened to the Xue Pavilion, briefly explained, and waited by Lu's couch. Cheer them on, serve them tea and water.

"Mother Lu, why is it so painful this time, it has never been broken for a moment, and it is so ferocious." Lu has given birth and raised, so he naturally knows what it was like before childbirth.

This time, it is completely different from when she gave birth to Sima Daiyu.

She thought of Sima Guansheng's words last night, and then thought of this abnormal pain, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"Maybe it hurt before, but you fell asleep and didn't know it. Don't worry, it's okay, you can see the little boy soon. Lu's mother comforted.

Mother Wen, who was in charge of inquiring about the news, saw Poria hurriedly coming out of Tingxue Pavilion, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Poria Cocos, what are you going to do in a panic so early?" ”

Poria was blessed with etiquette, and said urgently: "Mother Wen, my Lu Xiaoniang is about to give birth, and I am in a hurry to ask for a midwife." Without further ado, Poria won't say anything more to you. ”

"Okay, then you go and come back quickly."

"Hmm!" With that, Poria hurriedly walked towards the gate of the mansion.

Mother Wen's expression has always been very calm, and when Poria turned around, she couldn't hold back her excitement anymore, and trotted back to Liuying Pavilion.

She was complacent about the amount of the proliferating medicine she had ordered, and she was proud that her master's plan could go smoothly.

At this moment, Zhong Xiaoniang had finished breakfast and was sitting in front of the dresser to touch up her makeup, so she was busy sending Sima Qu out, and she didn't have time to dress up carefully.

Mother Wen hurriedly walked to Zhong Xiaoniang, leaned into Zhong Xiaoniang's ear and whispered, "Zhong Xiaoniang, there is already movement over there in the Snow Pavilion." ”

Zhong Xiaoniang showed a smug smile on her face, but her eyes were full of murderous energy.

She looked at herself in the mirror quietly, smiling without saying a word. After the maid finished dressing up for her, she called the maids out. He instructed Mother Wen: "Mother Wen, tell me to go down and let the kitchen prepare some red date syrup, and bring the 100 life locks I specially made for the little boy a few days ago and the baby clothes I sewed by myself. ”

"Yes, the slave will go and prepare." Lu's mother should arrive, exit the door and go busy.

Zhong Xiaoniang looked at herself in the bronze mirror and put a gilt plate flower hollow ring on the dresser on her Qianqianyu finger. stretched out his five fingers and took a closer look, muttering to himself: beautiful, good-looking, atmospheric.

It's really a happy event and the ring that I couldn't look at before, but today it's pleasing to the eye.

In the Lichun Pavilion, Sima Guansheng was also woken up by the people of Dingxing.

She specially told her last night to wake up the subordinates of Dingxing every three minutes.

Although everything is ready, she is still afraid of changes in the chaos. Since I decided to help others, I will help others to the end and send the Buddha to the west, but don't fall short.

She had to stay by Lu's side from beginning to end, so as not to adapt to all changes.

Ling's mother was a light sleeper, and she woke up from her sleep when she heard the knock on the door of the person in Dingxing. Hastily put on his clothes and rushed to the door of Sima Guansheng's room, called the people from Dingxing who were about to leave and asked, "Uncle Liu, did you wake up the second girl so early, did something happen in the house?" ”

"It was the second girl who told the old slave yesterday to wake her up at three o'clock. If you want to say what happened, then there really is, just passing by Tingxue Pavilion, I heard Zhong Xiaoniang's shout at the gate of the courtyard, and I was afraid that I was going to give birth. Yes, it's not too early, the old slave has to go to the Buddha hall to add sesame oil. ”

With that, he walked towards the courtyard gate of Lichun Pavilion with a sluggish step.

This is an old man, and his back is a little rickety. This is the old man of Sima Mansion, who has dedicated his life to Sima Mansion, a lonely family, no children, no daughters, no relatives and no reason. At this age, those who can't carry it or carry it are tantamount to being wasted for the master's family.

The old lady eats fasting and recites Buddha on weekdays, and is dedicated to goodness, and then remembers the old feelings, so she leaves him in charge of the province in the house, vigil and other work, which can be regarded as letting him rely on his old age, so that he will not beg along the street and starve to death in the wilderness.

These two girls are really gods, saying that the Lu family will give birth today, and it will be fulfilled before dawn this day.

Mother Wen muttered to herself, got dressed, and pushed the door into Sima Wansheng's bedroom.
