Chapter 062: The Disaster of Innocence (1)
"Amitabha, Amitabha..."Mrs. Zhao sat in the outer room of the delivery room, quickly twisting the Bodhi Zi Buddha beads in her hand, and kept chanting the Buddha's name in her mouth.
"Madam, how is Su Shi?" Zhao Tianqing, who got the report from his subordinates, hurriedly ran to the yard and met the girls head-on, only to see that some of them were holding blood-red hot water, and some were holding bloodstained muslin, the dazzling red deeply stimulated him, and he didn't care about the rules that men can't enter the delivery room, so he broke in three steps and two steps.
"Huh~" Mrs. Zhao still squinted her eyes, ignoring her son's almost questioning roar, after reading the last Buddha name, she slowly opened her eyes, and saw Zhao Tianqing's anxious appearance, sighed, and said faintly, "Aunt Su had a miscarriage, the child fell, and she was a brother."
Is it a brother? It's a son, his son listened to his son's fetal movement with Aunt Su yesterday, and greeted his son with joy, this is just a blink of an eye, why did the child fall off?
"Well, what about my lord."
However, compared to the dead baby, Zhao Tianqing wanted to know more about Su's situation. These days, most of his thoughts are on Zheng Sanniang and Xinna's two concubines, Yuzhu and Ziyun, and it seems that he no longer cares about his old love Su family, but it is actually the case. However, he Zhao Tianqing is not a cold-blooded and ruthless person, after all, the Su family is a woman he has loved for four or five years, he may not like the Su family as much as he used to, but he will not be indifferent to the concubine who has served him for many years.
"The imperial doctor is still seeing inside, but," Mrs. Zhao shook her head worriedly when she thought of Su's pale and lifeless face, "The situation is not too good, even if you pick up a life, your body will hurt your vitality, alas, I'm afraid it will not be easy to have children again." ”
Although the tone was regretful, Mrs. Zhao didn't have much sadness on her face - the Su family was just a concubine, this one couldn't be born, and there were other women.
"How so? What's going on? "Zhao Tianqing is not an ordinary entanglement, the eldest wife gave birth to a child and had a difficult birth, and she can't conceive in the future, the younger wife has a miscarriage, and a good brother has fallen out again for six or seven months... Aunt Su also hurt her body, what's going on?
Circling around the room like a trapped beast, Zhao Tianqing's face turned pale. Suddenly, he suddenly thought of a question, turned his head and asked Mrs. Zhao: "Madam, why did Aunt Su have a miscarriage?" When I went to see her yesterday, wasn't it okay? Isn't it—"Someone took the opportunity to murder his heir?"
"Second young master, the old slave can't stand you, it's the old slave who didn't take good care of the young aunt and grandmother," Zhao Tianqing's words did not fall, and a figure flashed out of the middle delivery room, knelt in front of Zhao Tianqing and Mrs. Zhao with a puff, covering his face and howling: "The old slave is useless, a good brother just fell like this"
"Grandma Sun, get up, there is still a doctor in the house, what are you mourning?" Mrs. Zhao was startled by Mama Sun's high-octave cry, shook the Buddha beads in her hand, and scolded: "People who are so old are still frizzy when they encounter trouble." ”
"Yes, ma'am"
Mama Sun lowered her head, and a complicated expression flashed on her face, but that look flashed, and when she stood up obediently and raised her head, she had already recovered her sad appearance like a mourner.
"Alas, Grandma Sun," Zhao Tianqing saw that Xiang Lai loved his nurse, her face was full of self-blame and shame, and her forehead was even more red, and she was a little unbearable at the moment, he took a deep breath and asked: "Don't say whose fault it is, I want to know, how did Aunt Su have a miscarriage?" Did you fall, or did you eat something inappropriate? Or what grievances have you suffered? ”
"This ......" Grandma Sun bit her lip and hesitated for a long time before she said, "Nothing happened?" Aunt Su has always been watched by maids and mothers-in-law, not to mention falling, not even making a fuss. As for the food and medicinal food, it is completely made according to the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor and the medical women, and there is no big kitchen, every time it is made separately in the small kitchen in the second young grandmother's courtyard, there should be no problem......"
"Is that someone wronged her?"
Mrs. Zhao put the Buddha bead in her hand back on her wrist and said disapprovingly.
"Also, no," who dares, the second young grandmother is not in the mansion, and Mrs. Zhao has the benefit of Aunt Su, and she is the biggest Aunt Su in the entire inner courtyard, not to mention that she is still pregnant with the blood and blood of the Zhao family, which one who is not long-eyed will provoke her.
Another point, Mama Sun was originally sent by Zhao Tianqing to take care of Aunt Su, so she should serve with her. If someone gives Aunt Su a bad feeling, is it also saying that her grandma has not done her duty.
"There's no this, there's no that, could it be that the child fell by himself?"
Zhao Tianqing endured it for a long time, but the anger still came up.
"No," Mama Sun also wondered in her heart, Aunt Su was okay at lunch today, she began to make noise and had a stomachache when she fell asleep and took a nap, and then she became red with just a stick of incense, and then she had a miscarriage.
However, this must not be said to Zhao Tianqing, in fact, even if it is said, other mothers and sons may not believe it. Hmm, she must find a reason to come out, otherwise, her grandmother will not only lose the dignity she has saved over the years in the Zhao family, but also not much left.
But, but there is no reason for this, how did she make one?
"No, no, Grandma Sun, can you say something else, the second young master and I believe you, so we handed over Aunt Su to you to serve. It's only been a few days now, and you've been taking care of people like this? Mrs. Zhao sat outside for a long time, she was a little tired, and said in an impatient tone, "Think about it carefully, what's wrong with Aunt Su at noon today."
"Noon today?" Grandma Sun's eyes lit up, and she shrank her shoulders as if she was a little afraid, as if she thought of something, but she didn't dare to say it.
"What? Mama, what do you think? Don't be afraid of anything, think of something and say boldly, you and I can be trusted."
Zhao Tianqing knew Grandma Sun best, and from her slight movements, she could see that something was wrong, and asked eagerly.
"Hui, back to the second young master, the old slave thought about it carefully just now, and there was really something strange," Mama Zhao seemed to be moved by Zhao Tianqing's words, and said with a firm expression: "At noon, when the old slave went to the small kitchen to give Aunt Su a bird's nest, he happened to meet the amethyst ...... in the second young grandmother's house."
Ling County, hot spring manor.
“…… Okay, since the second young grandmother and the third master Li agreed, there is no opinion on it. After listening to Wang Qifang's analysis, Qian Zhixin also felt that it made sense, so he said with a smile: "However, Qian Mou came to the capital this time to complete the test, and the second young grandmother has a flexible business mind, so please help me come up with an idea." ”
It's fair, I lost a money-making deal, and as compensation, Wang Qifang also had to help come up with a money-making golden idea
"Test? What test? ”
Wang Qifang put down the teacup and asked curiously.
"Oh, that's right, according to the ancestral teachings of the Qian family, every adult male has to undergo a test, that is, the patriarch gives each person a hundred taels of silver, limited to three years, and whoever can live the greatest profit can participate in the election of the heir of the family...... Well, the current highest record in the clan was set by my grandfather, who used one hundred taels of silver to make a profit of nearly 10,000 taels of silver, and successfully opened up several important trade routes for the Qian family. ”
Qian Zhixin simply talked about the competition system in the family, and when he saw the admiring expression on Wang Qifang's face, he hurriedly explained: "Actually, this is not our family's originality. This method of selecting heirs with actual combat is the first initiative of Lord Li Tianci. It is said that when Lord Li founded the Confucian Business Association, he adhered to this principle to elect the position of president...... Oh, and it is for this reason that your husband's ancestors were qualified to be in charge of the Confucian Business Association."
What is even more dramatic is that after the ancestors of the Zhao family successfully ascended to the throne of the president of the Confucian Business Association, they changed the system of competing for the recommendation of heirs. Everyone knows the meaning.
Wang Qifang nodded, looking abrupt.
"Hey, second young grandmother, don't change the topic, without the cotton business, what will happen to my lady's rouge money? You'll have to help you figure out a way to make money."
Qian Zhixin has an inexplicable trust in Wang Qifang, and since he got the 'entrepreneurship fund' given by the family, he has made up his mind to find Wang Qifang to help him. Now that he has lost the cotton business, his confidence in money is painful, and he has strengthened his idea of asking Wang Qifang to come up with an idea.
"Oh, what ideas can I have to make money," Wang Qifang subconsciously refused, but after his eyes came into contact with Qian Zhixin's pretended aggrieved expression, he retracted the words that had come to his mouth.
She knew that her unilateral decision to give up the cotton business was very unfair to Qian Zhixin and her third uncle. The third uncle is his own uncle, and after knowing her plans, he can understand it very well; But the Qian family is different, they have no lifelong friendship with her Wang Qifang, and they have no direct blood relationship, so it is indeed a bit unkind to let the family suffer such a big loss for no reason.
However, to think of an idea to make money, it has to be a golden idea of great profits, well, it is a bit difficult. If it was an ordinary ancient time, it would be better to say that she would just take out some profiteering industries in her previous life. But it's different now, here is the Great Zhou that has been passed by countless butterflies through the predecessors, and only one Li Tianci has tossed a lot of modern things to ancient times, and he simply doesn't give the juniors a little way to live.
At this moment, there was a whisper of conversation outside the study, and Wang Qifang listened with her ears sideways, as if it was Liu Yingniang, the captain of the women's guard. Hurriedly waved his hand at Qian Zhixin, then raised his voice and asked, "Is it Captain Liu, what's the matter?" There are no outsiders in the house, come in and say."
"Yes, Second Young Grandma"
Before the words fell, Liu Yingniang walked in with a slight limp, she came to Wang Qifang in a few steps, and was just about to salute, only to hear Wang Qifang "snap" on the table, and said in surprise:
"Huh? Yes, Second Young Master Qian, I know what business to do
