Chapter 350: Grace and Righteousness
Raw! Raw! Outside the house, Xiaolian cried with joy, hugged Mrs. Zhang's arm, and jumped up.
"Our lady has finally come to an end!" Mrs. Zhang was in tears, and she wiped it with her sleeves, but she couldn't wipe it off.
"He's a handsome boy!" Wen Po wrapped the child and showed it to Fengxian.
The newborn child was pink and tender, looking at his eyebrows and eyes very much like Song Shaohuai, he clenched his little fists and fell asleep like a kitten.
Mrs. Zhang Hulala and the mother-in-law and girls poured in together, knelt down and said hello, Fengxian waved her hand, Xiaolian distributed the happy money that had been prepared to them, everyone happily began to be busy, Xiaolian and Mrs. Zhang waited closely, helped Fengxian wipe and put on clean clothes, and the other mother-in-law and girls removed the original bedding with all hands and feet, and then replaced it with fluffy and soft.
After about a cup of tea, the room had been completely renewed, and even the bed curtain had been changed to a festive bright color, Du Mei lay on the table, pondered and wrote the recipe, and then handed it to Xiaolian to let the errand runners outside hurry up and grab the medicine according to the prescription.
"Take them down." Feng Xian leaned softly on the futon and waved at Mrs. Zhang.
"The nurse hasn't arrived for a while, this ......" Mrs. Zhang was a little embarrassed, the phoenix was born suddenly, the nurse who was originally said to be good has not yet come to the Song Mansion, but now she has taken it, and it will always take time.
"Give the child to his aunt for a while, and you can lead Wen Po down to receive the reward." Feng Xian is exhausted, and now she will be relieved, her body will be properly conditioned after all, she will recover quickly, and her spirit will be good.
Wen Po was a little surprised, but she still gave the child to Du Mei, and everyone came out with a curtain. For a while, there were only two sisters left in the room, Du Mei sat on the edge of the phoenix fairy bed with the child in her arms, and the two of them couldn't get enough of staring at him.
"Meizi, I only know what it is today to enter the Houmen as deep as the sea, I now have this child to tie in, I can no longer pull ashore, I can only live for him, fight for him!" Fengxian looked at the child with emotion for a moment, she turned her head and held Du Mei's hand tightly.
"My sister gave birth to a child safely, she should be happy, don't be angry and bad for those irrelevant people." Du Mei only thought that she was still angry with the Diao slave in Nafu, and hurriedly comforted her.
"Meizi, you saved the lives of my sister and mother and son today, I will go out and say a heart-wrenching word, I know that you like King Yan, and King Yan also likes you, but sister begs you to think about it carefully!
You are innocent than me, more capable than me, and worthy of a good family, but do you know that there is a thing called rank in this world, which we can't cross even after spending our lives? Even if we love to the bones, we have to give in to this cold thing! Feng Xian said, big tears rolling down her eyes.
"Sister, don't cry, you just spent your mental energy, you should rest well at this time, and hurt your eyes carefully." Du Mei hurriedly pinched the veil to stop her tears and comforted.
"There are some things that I shouldn't have told you, but I don't want you to be the same as me." Fengxian closed her eyes and sighed, as if she couldn't bear to witness Du Mei's future.
"If you want to say anything, just say it, there is no one here, and I won't say it." Seeing her like this, Du Mei was shocked in her heart, what big thing was Song Shaohuai hiding? It's still about her.
"Meizi, do you know that there is a Mrs. Su in the Yanwang Mansion?" Fengxian seemed to grit her teeth and said.
"Mrs. Sue? …… Who is she? Du Mei was stunned for a moment like a thunderbolt from the sky. Could it be that Chu Lin still has secrets that she doesn't know?
"She is Shang Shuling's concubine, the sister of King Yan's sworn brother, and now she is the side concubine of King Yan's mansion, the future princess of Yan!" Feng Xian told Su Muyun's identity in one go.
Du Mei didn't listen to any of this series of identities, only two words circled in his mind, side concubine, side concubine, side concubine ......, and for a while he only felt that the world was spinning!
"Meizi......, Meizi, you're okay." Fengxian saw that Du Mei's face turned pale, and shook her with some fear.
"Nothing, we...... We...... No...... There will be no future! Du Mei bit the tip of her tongue hard, and it was not until there was bloody gas in her mouth that she completely came to her senses, and said through the bite of her back molars.
"I know that if I say this, you will be in pain at the moment, but if he doesn't tell me, won't you be more miserable in the future?" Feng Xian said a little timidly.
"Sister Fengxian, thank you." Du Mei put the child on the bed of the phoenix and reached out to hug her.
"Meizi, you deserve more and better happiness." Phoenix patted her thin shoulder with tears.
There were noisy people outside the house, the footsteps were chaotic, and a man's anxious inquiry sounded in the distance, it turned out that Song Shaohuai got the news, Pegasus rushed back, and the mother-in-law outside knelt down to say hello.
"My son is born!" Song Shaohuai came in with a cold wind, and the armor on his body hadn't had time to take off.
"You talk, I'll go and see the decoction." Du Mei stood up and saluted, lowered his eyes and withdrew.
Ginseng chicken soup was boiling in the small kitchen, greasy and drowsy, Du Mei watched the fire in the small tandoor happily licking the medicine jar, but his mind flew away.
She remembered the dream of getting married under the peach blossom tree she had at the beginning, it turned out that it was not fake, Chu Lin really had other women! Why provoke her when he already has someone, when she is stupid or stupid!
So far, it seems that she is really stupid and stupid to the extreme, if it wasn't for Fengxian saying it today, she would have been deceived and coaxed by him! Du Mei's heart was like that medicine jar fried on the fire, anger, annoyance, hatred, all kinds of tastes came up, filled her chest, and made her almost want to explode!
An hour later, the medicinal soup was boiled, Du Mei gave Fengxian a drink, gave her a pulse, everything was stable, Fengxian was accompanied by Song Shaohuai, and the nurse also came, and the child was taken to breastfeed.
Seeing that their mother and son were taken care of, Du Mei felt less worried, so she got up and said goodbye and went back.
In the winter of Shenshi, the sun has begun to weaken, Liu Gengsheng insisted on sending Du Mei back in a carriage, the stone was afraid of the wind and cold, and persuaded her not to ride a horse, Du Mei was not in a good mood, too lazy to argue, so he agreed.
Du Mei sat in the carriage in a daze, not knowing what to think, the cold wind that burrowed everywhere froze her cold, and the stone rode one horse and held the reins of the other in his hand, and slowly followed behind the carriage.
When the two returned to Dujiagou, it was already dark, the wind was cold, and the cold was pressing, Liu Gengsheng was in a hurry to go back, sent Du Mei to the door of the house, and then turned the carriage and left.
The lights in the two-bedroom courtyard are bright, Du Mei is a little strange, it is cold on weekdays, they like to stay in the warm kitchen, not only is the big house lit up at this time, but even the courtyard is hung with horse lanterns.
"Sister!" Du Gui was standing under the porch, saw her, and ran away.
"What's going on?" Du Mei asked with a frown.
"Brother Chu Lin and Brother Murong have been waiting for you for a long time." Du Gui raised his face and whispered.
As soon as Du Mei heard Chu Lin's name, her face immediately changed, she endured it from the Song Mansion to her home, and at this moment she was angry in her chest, like a thousand arrows piercing her heart, this person deceived her so far, and now she dares to come, it is simply too deceitful! I think that in order to get along with him more, she once fantasized that she would come to Gangneung City to do business, but now it is even more ridiculous to think about it!
With a "bang", Du Mei pushed open the hidden door of the big house and stepped in.
"Mei'er, you're back!" Chu Lin was sitting with Murong Xi, and when he saw Du Mei appear, he immediately stood up happily.
"Amei, I see that you don't look good, are you tired?" Murong Xi took a few steps tightly, wanting to step forward and take her hand, but Du Mei turned sideways to avoid it.
"Why are you two here?" As soon as Du Mei opened his mouth, he was shocked to realize that his voice was hoarse for some reason.
"Today is your birthday, and I came here from Gangneung City!" Murong Xi was not annoyed when he saw Du Mei avoiding it, he withdrew his hand and said with a smile.
"We didn't say we were going to come today no matter how late it was." Chu Lin was still standing in the dim light, and said with a gentle and doting face.
"Murong Xi, go back, my grandfather just passed away, how can I have a birthday as a junior." Du Mei glanced at him and said.
"Mei'er, you're so biased, why did you just ask me to go!" Murong Xi raised his eyebrows and shouted.
"He'll be gone, too." Du Mei said coldly, and walked straight into his own room.
Chu Lin's heart suddenly jumped, Du Mei's expression was very abnormal today, she had been talking to Murong Xi, she didn't even give him a look, and she didn't call him a third brother like in the past.
"Oh, so do you." Murong Xi gloated and glanced at Chu Lin.
After a while, Du Mei came out, and she had an extra purse in her hand.
"It's good that Murong Xi is here, just to be a witness, Lord Yan, you have a few old things here, and they will all be returned to Zhao today, as well as stones, he was originally your person, take them away today, as for the black girl, it has grown up in my family since she was a child, just like a family member, I can't give it back to you!" Du Mei inhaled, trying to stay as calm as she could, not letting her voice tremble, and maintaining her pitiful self-esteem, which was already shattered.
"You...... What did you say? Chu Lin was stunned, he came with a heart full of joy, but he didn't know what Du Mei was doing, and he actually said such hurtful words.
"Mei'er, you're ...... This is to break off his friendship, okay...... Very good! Murong Xi slapped his face and laughed.
"If you're so noisy, leave now!" Du Mei couldn't help but squeal and glared at him angrily.
"Lord Yan, you go quickly, don't send it!" Murong Xi sat back in his chair and leisurely picked up the teacup.
"Mei'er, why the hell are you?" Chu Lin asked unwillingly.
"Ask your side concubine Niangniang!" Du Mei stuffed the purse in his hand into his hand and said through gritted teeth.
"Poof" was caught off guard, and Murong Xi squirted out all the tea in one gulp.
"It turns out that even you know! How long are you going to lie to me? Du Mei said with fire in his eyes and trembling fingers pointing at them.
"Mei'er, listen to me......" Chu Lin suddenly fell into an ice cellar, and the thing he was most worried about and afraid of finally came.
"Do you want to tell me that being a country girl of my status as a concubine of Yanwangfu is already a great promotion! It is not uncommon for you to have three wives and four concubines, but I am really not uncommon! You can't give me a couple for the rest of my life, I just think it's all wishful thinking and a ridiculous dream in the past! Du Mei didn't allow him to tell the difference, and snatched the white fiercely.
"I'm just nominal to her, and I've only liked you from beginning to end." Chu Lin looked sad.
He was holding a purse in his hand, and there were three things in it, all of which he was familiar with, a dragon-shaped ancient jade, a dark iron dagger, and a piece of clotted white jade on the flute.
