Chapter 68: Determination 

Cheng Erniang's daughter was silent, and she died silently.

The people in the Yan Wangfu seemed to have forgotten about this matter, Han Xiao didn't mention it, Guo Changshi didn't mention it, and Princess Cheng didn't mention the matter of serving the jade plate to her little granddaughter.

There are many small babies in Ka Lok Tong, although they have a name, but they do not have a surname.

"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

In the warm incense dock, Wu Shi immediately breathed a sigh of relief after listening to the report of his subordinates.

No one in the house mentions it, it doesn't mean that the news can be hidden, especially for such a big thing, everyone who should know knows it.

"The Cheng family is about to enter the door, a sister died, but another sister came." Chun Tao said.

Wu's brows furrowed, but he said, "The prince will not let her give birth to a child." ”

Cheng Yuanniang, the princess, can't stop her, but at least she can't give birth.

has no children, and is famous, what can Cheng Yuanniang do.

"I heard from the steward that Princess Cheng doesn't seem to have any intention of getting married." Wen Xing said the key news.

It stands to reason that Cheng Erniang did not give birth to a son, and Princess Cheng lost an important chess piece in her hand. Next, Cheng Yuanniang will play the main event when she enters the door, and the marriage will be lively and lively, so as to meet Cheng Yuanniang's interests.

"Even if Cheng Erniang is dead, the reputation of the Cheng family will not be restored for a while." Wu said, mocking: "With such a reputation, if Princess Cheng still has to do a big marriage, it will be shameless." ”

Chun Tao said with a smile: "What the princess of the county said is that the outside has been scolding the Cheng family, and the daughter of the princess who has not left the pavilion has a secret knot. When the Cheng family entered the door, this incident alone was enough to make her unable to raise her head. ”

Wu Shi was also happy when she heard this, but she was only halfway through laughter, her hand touched her stomach unconsciously, and she said to herself a little: "Why don't you have children......"

After straightening up, she fell out of favor. She didn't know the reason, she only knew that Han Xiao didn't like her anymore.

But in order to produce an heir, Han Xiao will still come to her room.

However, the stomach is not angry, and there is no news at all.

"The princess is still young, and there will always be children." Wen Xing said with a smile.

Chun Tao also followed: "Yes, the princess of the county donates so much to the temple every year, and the Bodhisattva will definitely bless the mother." ”

Wu didn't get happy, and asked, "Which girl has the prince often favored recently?" ”

She is already in the main house, and the children born to the concubines will also recognize her as their mother.

I won't be able to give birth for a while, so it's not bad to hold one first. There is no help from her mother's family, she has fallen out of favor, and she is correct, and having more children is her foothold, but she can't give birth.

"It seems to be still Qixia." Wen Xing thought for a while and replied, and said: "I heard from the steward of the Shizi Mansion that the Shizi is busy with official business, often sleeps in the study outside, and rarely goes back to the backyard. ”

Whether it is in the Junwang Mansion or the Yanwang Mansion, Han Xiao always has endless business to deal with.

If you don't go back to the hospital, how can a woman in the backyard give birth to a child.

"The prince is working too hard." Wu said, "Tell the kitchen to stew tonic soup, and I will personally send it to the prince." ”

Although Han Xiao didn't look at this kind of small means, she still had to do it.

The waves in the back house are still turbulent, one wave of crisis has passed, and another wave is about to follow.

She can't control the things ahead, and she can't worry about them, the only thing she can do is to hold on to Han Xiao, this is everything to her.

At the same time, the Pingyuan Hou Mansion also received the news.

"It's good to have a daughter, it's good...... Mrs. Cheng said to herself, not only relieved, but also resentful.

Ruined the reputation of the Cheng family like this, if she gave birth to a son and let Cheng Erniang gain a foothold in Yanwangfu, she would be angry to death.

Moreover, Cheng Yuanniang is about to become the princess. If Cheng Erniang gives birth to a son, how will Cheng Yuanniang gain a foothold.

Cheng Erniang gave birth to a daughter, which is the best result.

"Cheng Erniang died in childbirth." Zhou Xijia said, his mood was somewhat complicated.

The so-called death in childbirth, you don't need to think about it, you know it's an excuse.

This is Princess Cheng's explanation to the Cheng family, the culprit is dead, and with the fading of time, this matter will eventually pass.

"Heh, Princess Cheng's actions have always been like this." Mrs. Cheng said a little mockingly, "What is a niece, her own son can strangle her if she hinders her." It's okay to die like this, but I'm relieved. ”

"The child was taken up by the princess to raise, and I don't know how many days ......" can live, but Zhou Xi's family didn't dare to say any more.

Mrs. Cheng said: "I actually raised it myself, instead of throwing it to Xu Mei." Is this really trying to feed, or is it worried that Xu Mei won't die? ”

Legally speaking, Xu Mei is the child's mother-in-law. Throwing the child directly to Xu Mei is dead, and it has nothing to do with Princess Cheng.

Now she has personally inquired, that is, she is going to come by herself in life and death.

"Mrs. Xu has always acted upside down, and the princess should be worried that she is not acting well enough." Zhou Xijia said.

Mrs. Cheng felt justified and nodded in agreement: "Such a daughter-in-law is enough for Princess Cheng to drink a pot." ”

Zhou Xijia bowed his head and didn't dare to speak.

"Yuan Niang's dowry, have you chosen it?" Mrs. Cheng asked.

Zhou Xijia said: "I asked the eldest lady ......"

Before I finished speaking, I heard the little girl at the door say, "Uncle is here......"

Mrs. Cheng and Zhou Xi's family were stunned, and then Mrs. Cheng became overjoyed and hurriedly got up and walked out.

I saw Cheng Shaomu striding into the door, different from the previous image of alcoholism, he was cleanly dressed, his hair and beard were not knotted again, and he became the best son of the past.

Although he has become a little thinner because of the heavy drinking, his spirit is back.

"My son......" Mrs. Cheng was full of excitement.

Since Cheng Shaomu learned that Shen Xiu was robbed, he drank heavily every day, like a wandering spirit, and completely changed a person.

No matter what she said or how she persuaded her, Cheng Shaomu turned a deaf ear. It seems that if he lost Shen Xiu, his soul was also lost.

"Mother." Cheng Shaomu knelt down, bowed his head and said, "My son is not filial, which makes my mother angry." ”

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly went to help him, her mood was full of excitement, she just thought that he had woken up, and said in a loud voice: "Get up, get up." ”

How can mother and son have an overnight feud, as long as Cheng Shaomu can cheer up and completely forget about Shen Xiu, she will not be angry at all.

"I'm here to say goodbye to my mother." Cheng Shaomu said, his tone firm.

Mrs. Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Your sister is about to leave the cabinet, so leave the business affairs to someone else." The family is not short of this money, you should still watch your sister come out of the cabinet at home. ”

"It's not a business thing." Cheng Shaomu raised his head as he spoke, and looked directly at Mrs. Cheng with a firm and sad expression, "I'm going to the capital to find Shen Xiu." ”

"What, what??" Mrs. Cheng stayed on the spot.

Cheng Shaomu said: "I thought about it for a long time and decided to go back to Shen Xiu. ”

After meeting Han Rong that day, he had no idea at all. The responsibility of the family weighs on him, and the education he has received over the years has been telling him.

He is the man who has to bear the family, the plain marquis, his mother, and his sister, these are his responsibilities.

He should be like a man, forget about Shen Xiu completely, and treat it as if nothing had happened. If you hate Tao, just divorce her and marry an honest and obedient person.

However, he can't do it, he really can't do it.

"I really can't live without her." Cheng Shaomu whispered, with a cry in his voice, "No matter what the price is, no matter what I have experienced, I have to get her back, without her, I really can't live." ”

Han Rong was right, he was indeed not good to Shen Xiu. Never thought about her, never did anything for her.

said that she was a cousin and a lover, but in fact, she was a girl. Shen Xiu's mood of being willing to go to the capital Yibo was completely understandable.

But at that time, he hadn't lost Shen Xiu. It seems that no matter what he does, Shen Xiu will be by his side, even if he likes her, he can't pay attention to it subconsciously.

It was only then, after the loss, that he understood.

Although it was a little late, there was still a chance to remedy it. He will definitely find her back, treat her well, and never miss it again.

In his life, he can't lose Shen Xiu.

"You, you ......" Mrs. Cheng only felt stuffy in her chest, and retreated again and again, if it wasn't for Zhou Xi's family to support her, she was afraid that she would really fall to the ground.

Shen Xiu, it's Shen Xiu again, it's been so long, she's gone, why is it still ghostly!!

"My son is not filial, so I will say goodbye." Cheng Shaomu said, stood up and walked out.

Mrs. Cheng's face was pale, and her body was almost unstable, but she took a step forward, grabbed Cheng Shaomu, and said, "Your sister is about to leave the cabinet......"

"I must find Shen Xiu." Cheng Shaomu said, shook off Mrs. Cheng, and strode out.
