On the morning of the eighteenth day of the first month, Qinglian got up together, and her stomach began to hurt after breakfast, "Quick, go find someone, I'm going to give birth." ”

Cuizhu and Ruizhu, the two personal maids, were so busy that one went to boil water to prepare, and the other called Wenpo to report to Zhou Danniang and Li Jue, and soon Qinglian's courtyard became lively. Not long after, the people who probed their brains outside the door of Qinglian Courtyard were all maids and mothers-in-law who came to inquire about the news.

Qinglian's shouts in the next room were louder and louder, and people were a little upset when they heard it.

Zhou Danniang sat in the next room, heard the voice from next door, frowned slightly, and a trace of disgust crossed her eyes.

Mama Chang sneered on the side: "This is shouting hard enough, but the prince is not here today, what's the use of shouting so loudly!" ”

Zhou Danniang picked up the tea pot and tasted the tea slowly, "Are all the preparations ready?" ”

Mama Chang nodded in response, "It's all ready." ”

The shouting was intermittent, and after a while, a stout mother-in-law came in with a curtain, wiped the fine sweat on her forehead with her hands, and replied: "Madam, Aunt Lian has a difficult birth, and I have to ask a doctor to prescribe a dose of medicine to induce labor." ”

"Difficult birth?" When Zhou Danniang heard this, her face became a little strange, and she waved her hand and sent her mother-in-law away, "You go first and then think of other ways, the left-behind imperial doctor is not here today, so I will send someone to invite someone over again." ”

As soon as the mother-in-law left, Zhou Danniang's jade-white fingers clicked on the tabletop, tapping rhythmically up and down without slowness, as if calculating the time. Mama Chang stood silently beside her, wondering if Madame would take this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

Time passed minute by minute, and I don't know how long it was, and there were no more heart-rending shouts from the next door.

Zhou Danniang called, "Mama Chang, go and ask for a doctor." ”

"Ma'am. You're not going to ......"

"It's two lives, Sister Hui was born not long ago, and I, as a mother, also want to accumulate some blessings for my children. You are in charge of yourself, as for whether you can survive or not, it is a personal creation, don't let people grab my handle and say things. ”

After Mama Chang left, Ruizhu beside Qinglian ran to cry and beg, Zhou Danniang only said that she had already sent Mama Chang to go, and Ruizhu couldn't say anything more. thanked Zhou Danniang and went back to the next door.

In the next room, after Qinglian passed out twice, the doctor finally came. I poured a bowl of oxytocic medicine and tossed it until the next day. I heard the midwife shouting "I gave birth" in the house, but I couldn't hear the child's cry, and the group of people who were hiding outside and watching the excitement pricked up their ears to listen to the movement, and after a while. I saw the midwife go to the next door with a swaddling baby. The maid who was waiting in the Qinglian house also came out, and someone asked, and the maid shouted triumphantly outside: "It's a little boy." ”

Aunt Lian came and went, and she gave birth to a boy without danger, this is the eldest son of the prince.

The people outside the courtyard cheered like birds and beasts, and each went back to his room to report the news.

Zhou Danniang looked at the child who was picked up by the nurse, and stroked the child's cheek with her fingers. "Why didn't you hear crying when you were born?"

"Mrs. Hui, the child was born with an umbilical cord wrapped around his neck and almost suffocated to death. Fortunately, it was saved, but the doctor said that the child was a little small, and the weakness brought out by the mother's belt should be well conditioned the day after tomorrow. ”

"Oh? Poor one, just out of the womb will suffer! Zhou Danniang painted the nails of Zhu Hongkoudan and shaved the child's face, and the child was in pain. He cried loudly, but his voice was as small as that of a cat, "You carry the child to my yard." ”

The nurse was assigned by the princess, and when she heard Zhou Danniang's instructions at this moment, she didn't know how to reply for a while, she was stunned for a moment, and nodded gently, "Yes!" ”

Zhou Danniang went next door to see Qinglian, Qinglian was still asleep, and the whole person was haggard like a withered flower. Zhou Danniang only glanced at it, and said to Ruizhu and Cuizhu who were waiting next to her: "Aunt Lian has a difficult birth and injured her body, I'm afraid I don't have the energy to take care of the child." When Aunt Lian wakes up, you tell her, and the child will be carried to my yard first. I will discuss it with my mother to see what she means when she is an old man. ”

Ruizhu and Cuizhu watched Zhou Danniang leave in a daze, the two glanced at each other, and Ruizhu said, "What is good now?" What can I say when my aunt wakes up? ”

Cuizhu sighed, "Say whatever you want." ”

In the evening, Qinglian woke up, and as soon as she woke up, she asked the child, Ruizhu pushed Cuizhu, signaling her to say, Cuizhu couldn't, and she sighed for a long time before repeating Zhou Danniang's words to Qinglian.

The two maids looked at Qinglian tremblingly, for fear that she would be mad if she was not good, but she didn't expect Qinglian to be so unresponsive after hearing this, she just said lightly: "I'm hungry, prepare some food." Cuizhu, get some hot water and wipe my face. ”

The two maids went down in response and went out, Rui Zhu asked, "Auntie is a little wrong, why didn't she react at all?" ”

Cuizhu pursed her lips, "Could it be that you still expect her to send you a fire?" Maybe my aunt is willing to hand over the little son to the princess or princess to raise. ”

"I'm afraid that my aunt will not send it, and one shot can scare people to death."

"Come on, let's get to work first!"

In the house, Qinglian was lying on the bed, thinking of her child, who was taken away by Zhou Danniang without even seeing each other when she was born, and the quilt corner she was holding in her hand was crumpled into a ball, "Zhou Danniang, you are ruthless!" You're really fast! I don't want children for the time being, but you don't want to keep them by your side. ”

Qinglian has her own plans, Zhou Danniang's child was born a month earlier than her child, and she is afraid that the princess will not agree to raise two children at a time, as long as the child can be sent to the princess, the others can be discussed in the long run. Anyway, when Zhou Danniang gave birth last time, the man secretly helped, and now she is also a hen who can't lay eggs, so she will endure this time first, and she will have a good life for herself in the future.

On the day of washing, Qingdai came. Although he is the eldest son of the concubine, he is the first grandson of the Qi Palace, and the prince and princess are very happy, and they still invite many guests to come.

When Qing Dai saw Zhou Danniang coming out with the child in her arms, the corners of her lips raised slightly, "Yo, this is my little nephew, let the third aunt take a look!" Qing Dai glanced at the child twice, felt that he was a little small, and his face was not very good-looking, so he quietly and casually congratulated him, "Have you got a name?" ”

Zhou Danniang patted the child lightly and nodded: "It's up, Li Ying." ”

Qingdai didn't say anything when she heard it, smiled and sent the prepared baptism gift.

Not long after, Shangguan Qingqiang and Qian also brought Shangguan Jie's newly married daughter-in-law Wang Shi to arrive. As for the two girls brought back by Xiao Feng and Aunt Liu in front of the head, they were all rejected by the old lady, and the daughter of the first seven grade officials in Shangjing was also chosen, which was Wang. The two became close at the end of the year, and Qingdai was still in Beihu at that time, so naturally she didn't participate, but Tingjia prepared a congratulatory gift for her.

Qing Dai saw Wang for the first time, she looked beautiful, and followed Qian with low eyebrows very obediently, except for greetings, she no longer spoke, and people didn't look at her as a difficult person. Because she was saluting, Qingdai greeted the three of them and didn't say anything more.

The whole baptism ceremony went smoothly, but in the second half, the child suddenly made a big fuss, and his crying sounded weakly and worried. The princess had to ask someone to finish it quickly, and then asked Zhou Danniang to go down with the child.

Halfway through the banquet, Qing Dai withdrew from the table and went to sit in Zhou Danniang's house, "I didn't catch up with Sister Hui's washing three and full moon, so I gave Sister Hui a little meaning to play." ”

Qingdai prepared a pair of rag dolls with gold embroidery thread and a pair of red gold bracelets for Sister Hui'er. Zhou Danniang took it with a smile, "This thing is exquisite, I took Sister Hui to thank Grandma Jiu." ”

"Madame is gracious."

The two chatted for a while, and Qingqiang and the others also came over. A few people ran into one place, because Zhou Danniang, the owner, was there, and they didn't talk much. Qingdai didn't mention it to see Qinglian just now, and waited for Qingqiang and them to come.

After looking at the child for a while, Qingqiang asked casually: "Brother Ying's body looks a little weak." ”

The nurse next to her explained: "Yes, the doctor said that she had used medicine when she was pregnant, and the weakness brought out by the mother's womb had to be well regulated." ”

Qingdai was stunned for a moment, does this mean that Qinglian, this kid, didn't take the right path? Qian's face sank, Wang Shi kept his head and didn't speak, Qingqiang glanced at the nurse, and finally pulled the corners of his mouth and swallowed the words back, but a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, I don't know if it was the nurse or Qinglian.

After seeing the children, everyone went back to the main room. Qian mentioned to Zhou Danniang that she wanted to see Qinglian, and Zhou Danni said with a smile: "Your family's sisters and concubines are all here today, I just happened to go to my mother's side, and I will take you over by the way." ”

Qing Dai was slightly stunned, Zhou Danniang personally took herself over, which was a bit interesting, and then smiled, "There is Sister Lao Zhou." ”

Everyone got out of Zhou Danniang's courtyard and went to where Qinglian lived. When he was about to walk to the front, two maids ran over from the direction of Qinglian's courtyard, looking a little flustered.

"Panic, be careful of disturbing the guests." Zhou Danniang shouted angrily.

The two maids were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "The princess spares her life, and the slave maid is unintentional." ”

Zhou Danniang raised her eyes and glanced at the two of them, "You two are from Aunt Pang's yard, right?" If you don't serve your master in the house, what are you running here? ”

The two maids trembled, and no one said anything for a long time. Zhou Danniang glared at the two, "Dumb?" What happened? ”

One of them said tremblingly: "Just now the slave maid passed by Aunt Lian's yard and saw a man climbing out of the back wall......"

Everyone in Shangguan Mansion was shocked, only Qing Dai glanced lightly at the two maids kneeling on the ground, the corners of her lips hooked slightly, she didn't expect Zhou Danniang to do it so quickly.

Zhou Danniang feigned anger and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? ”

"The slave didn't panic, Qingzhu also saw it."

The maid beside him nodded vigorously, "The slaves and maids were startled just now, so they ran away and didn't expect to bump into the princess......"

Qian, who is the sister-in-law, stood up and spoke at this time, "I think it's better to go to Qinglian Courtyard to have a look!" ”
