Chapter 104: Good Things Come in Pairs
As Lao Zhao said, on the seventh day, she arrived in Yaocheng. A prosaic small city contains the most simple people's livelihood.
It is only a hundred miles away from the imperial city of Wei, and Lao Zhao said that standing on a high place at night and seeing the most brilliant and prosperous place is the light.
Dugu Muyu can't mention the half interest, the imperial city has always been a place where power and interests intersect, a city of interests that eats people and does not spit out bones.
Wulian seems to be heartless, but in the end, she is extremely thoughtful, and even her residence has been arranged. A small mansion with a small courtyard, fresh and elegantly furnished.
After entering the master bedroom, she sighed more and more at the intimacy of the dancing lotus, and the child's shaking bed was ready. Presumably, Mairen had planned for her early on, so that everything would be so thoughtful.
The old servant boiled the boiling water, and it was just right to be lukewarm after living with cold water. After washing away the dust of the servants around him, Dugu Muyu lay down on the soft couch, and a floating heart could be regarded as settled.
When she was bathing, she seemed to be red, and she didn't understand these, so she had to ask the old servant Aunt Ye. The lady said that if she saw the red, it meant that the production was imminent, and everything had to be more careful.
Dugu Muyu was not in pain or itching at this time, and he was extremely tired, so he lay down on the soft couch and slept peacefully.
On the second day, as soon as it was clear, she was awakened by the pain in her abdomen, Aunt Ye had been guarding outside the house last night, and hurried to come when she heard the movement.
Dugu Muyu was already in a cold sweat in pain, and his pale lips were slightly opened, but he didn't make a sound, only gasping for breath.
Aunt Ye hurriedly comforted her a few words, and then hurriedly sent Lao Zhao to ask the midwife, Dugu Muyu was already in pain, and she didn't know why. Thanks to Aunt Ye's calmness and self-control, she prepared the necessary items for production without hurry.
It's troublesome to take a woman, especially a squeamish woman. It's a stop-and-go road, and the drive is slow.
Last night, Yunqi was guarding Wei Wenyan again, and now he is still half-asleep, sitting on the back of the horse and dozing off incessantly, and he doesn't even know if he is half a step behind.
The horse that Yunqi rode was the most docile, and Yunqi was extremely relieved that he was half-asleep and half-awake. Just then a high-pitched neighing sounded, and the horse pouted its front hooves and neighed.
Yunqi was also a little sobered up in fright, and Wei Wenyan had already followed the voice and looked over. It turned out that two passers-by startled the horses, and one of the men apologized and said: "Don't blame the son, my wife is about to give birth, and I can't delay it in a hurry." ”
This matter is also inseparable from Yunqi, presumably the woman is the midwife. Yunqi didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly said, "It's good that you're not injured, go quickly!" ”
After the two of them saluted, they quickly walked into the house on one side, and Yun Qi patted his chest in shock. Min Min in the sedan chair also poked his head out and whispered: "Fortunately, Fang didn't hurt anyone, Yunqi, you have to wake up and don't sleep again." ”
Yunqi shook his head embarrassedly and hurriedly followed. No matter how slow it is, it can be reached tonight, and the thought of this cloud rises makes me feel energetic.
Finally arrived in Shangyang City in the evening, Min Min was resettled, and after returning to the palace, Wei Wenyan was relieved of his burden.
But his heart was extremely depressed, since he touched those two people in the morning, Wei Wenyan only felt that there was a boulder pressing on him, and he couldn't breathe heavily.
After thinking about it, he didn't come up with a reason, so he picked up Yunqi, who had just fallen asleep. Looking at Yunqi's sleepy-eyed appearance, he still said: "Yunqi, you hurry back to Yaocheng to see how the woman who gave birth is!" ”
What the? Yunqi once suspected that he was dreaming, otherwise the prince was sleepwalking. Why would he be asked to inquire about an irrelevant woman?
Yun Qi rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't dreaming, and asked puzzledly, "Lord Wang, just spare me!" Why would such a good person ask a woman about childbirth? ”
And what Wei Wenyan said next surprised him even more!
I saw him say calmly: "This woman's birth is a big deal, and you almost hurt someone by sleeping in the morning." It's time to go and apologize! ”
It's a good thing for a woman to give birth, but this is just an unknown woman, and it's in a remote city a hundred miles away! Yun Qi wished it was a dream, but his majestic prince was staring at him.
"Huh?" Wei Wenyan snorted.
Yunqi hurriedly got up and said, "My subordinates will set off here, hurry up!" ”
Wei Wenyan nodded with satisfaction and walked out. Yunqi couldn't help but wail: "Heavens! Please open your eyes and save my lord! ”
"By the way, don't leave empty-handed, lest you lose your manners." Wei Wenyan suddenly turned back again.
This sudden sentence really startled the obsessed praying to the heavens, and he hurriedly responded like garlic.
"Lord Wang, I'm afraid that he has lost his heart, and now he wants to play it out one by one, and he tortures me! It's really inhumane! Of course, Yunqi only dared to wail in his heart when he said this.
Even if he was unwilling, Yunqi had to quickly go to the stable and pick a fast horse. Before it was dark, he only hoped that the family had not fallen asleep when he arrived, otherwise he would not have been able to disturb them at night.
Soon after Wei Wenyan left, his heart became even heavier, and a panicked mood kept dominating him.
Mama Su looked at him when he came back from this trip, and now he was eating like a six gods and no owner, and he had been holding a spoon in the air for a long time.
Mama Su had no choice but to whisper: "Lord Wang? ”
With a "ping" sound, the spoon in Wei Wenyan's hand slipped out of his hand, making a crisp sound. Mama Su was also taken aback, afraid that she would suddenly reach the prince, she was already very quiet, what?
Wei Wenyan only felt that his heart seemed to be pulled by something, and he pulled it tightly, and the force was loosened just now. He distinctly heard his own eager heartbeat, which seemed to pop out of his chest.
It was a strange feeling, I don't know whether it was joy or sorrow, it just touched his whole heart.
With the good words of the prince, Yunqi didn't dare to slack off for half a minute, but it was already late at night when he arrived. Fortunately, the house was still brightly lit, and Yun Qi touched the thing on his chest, and took a deep breath before he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Who?" The deep voice coming from inside the door seemed to be very pleasant, and Yunqi outside the door thought so.
People who came late at night, he would also have concerns if it was Yunqi, so Yunqi explained: "It was my horse that surprised you two in the morning, and I came to apologize." ”
There was suddenly no sound inside, and after half a moment, a head poked out of it, and Lao Zhao recognized Yun Qi before opening the door. "It's you! Hey, the morning thing is also mine, I was anxious to startle your horse, I should pay for it, how dare you bother to come here late at night. ”
The smile on the corner of Lao Zhao's mouth climbed to the corner of his eyes as he spoke, and the folds raised at the end of his eyes were dyed with joy.
Yunqi made a gesture respectfully: "I came here as soon as I was free, and it was abrupt to visit late at night, please forgive me." ”
Seeing that this man looked so happy, it must have been that the woman had already given birth to a mother and a child. Yunqi took out a piece of red cloth wrapped in something from his arms and handed it over, "I heard you talk about your wife's birth, so I prepared a thin gift to congratulate you." ”
Lao Zhao didn't take the things in Yunqi's hand, and said with a straight smile: "The son has a heart, the mother and daughter are safe, as for the congratulatory gift, please accept it." ”
The mother and daughter are safe, and they can be regarded as able to make a difference. Yunqi smiled knowingly, insisted on stuffing the thing into his hand and said: "Children's objects, they are not worth much, in the end, they are part of my heart, just accept it." ”
Lao Zhao didn't take this thing and his subordinates didn't accept it, Yunqi was already on the horse's back, and he said loudly: "Take it!" ”
"Drive!" The sound of hurried horses' hooves sounded, and Yunqi mounted his horse and disappeared into the endless night.
Lao Zhao opened the red cloth at this time, and there was a silver longevity lock lying inside, and the four words "longevity and 100 years old" engraved on it were indeed excellent.
Such a good intention has to be put away, one, not enough!
Lao Zhao held the longevity lock and handed it to Aunt Ye, and came to the ins and outs one by one, and Aunt Ye understood it and went in and put the longevity lock at the head of the bed.
After tossing for a day, seeing her face so tired, Aunt Ye was really distressed. It's not easy to have such a thin body!
The child was born safely, and the bitterness and pain of this day were worth it. Exhausted, she tried her best to hold on to her spirits, and her face was full of happiness after seeing the child.
The little man looked around with his dark eyes open, his long eyelashes fluttering. Although it was red, the appearance between his eyebrows followed him, as if carved out of a mold.
She was so grateful to the child for coming, so that she could see his shadow outside her dreams.
"Madam, this child doesn't look very much like you, she must have followed her father!" Aunt Ye looked at the small lump of meat in the swaddling clothes and smiled.
The moment the words came out, she slapped her mouth and said, "Look at me, I'm old and confused, and I don't have a door in my mouth!" ”
Dugu Muyu didn't show a displeased look, only lowered his eyes and chuckled: "Yes! With his father. ”
Aunt Ye was happy and forgot her shape, and she quickly said what she shouldn't have said for a while, but fortunately, Dugu Muyu didn't blame her. Aunt Ye breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and looked at this female doll the more she looked at it, the happier she became, and she couldn't stop teasing: "Look at this handsome appearance, I'm afraid that this good man who will ask for marriage when he grows up will have to step on the threshold." ”
Although Aunt Ye's words are still a matter of no score, but with his appearance, it will naturally not be bad, and Dugu Muyu is happier when she thinks about it.
It was late at night, and Aunt Ye said, "Madam, tomorrow, Lao Zhao will go and buy another child's shaker." I'll take care of the child, so you can rest! ”
Dugu Muyu looked at the child who was sleeping sweetly in the shaker, but when he came out early, he was a little calm, not at all like the sister in Aunt Ye's arms, and he was quite an example for his brother.
Everything has to be prepared again, and this back and forth is silver taels. Intoxicated with the happiness of the dragon and phoenix fetus, it is accompanied by a heavy burden!
