Chapter 20 Cheap concubines are vicious!
"How's it going?" Qiu Yulan didn't have time to change her dress, and hurried to Sheng Shushui's side, before the doctor came, a group of mothers-in-law and maids were clustered under the corridor, at a loss, and a few concubines in bright costumes stood there with complicated expressions and whispered - she didn't know this, so she went inside, and saw Sheng Shushui frowning and lying on the couch, and the two maids were waiting nervously beside her, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Nineteen brothers and sisters are here?" Sheng Shushui hurriedly got up.
Qiu Yulan didn't say a word, stretched out his hand and held it: "Lie down, lie down!" Don't move...... How's it going? Without waiting for Sheng Shushui to answer, she urged again, "What about the doctor?" Please? When will you come? β
"Don't worry!" Sheng Shushui chuckled, his eyebrows stretched a little, and he held her hand and said, "The doctor has already invited him, and he will come later." β
"What about the rose cake?" Qiu Yulan carefully looked at her face, and felt that it really didn't look like a big problem, so she breathed a sigh of relief and asked.
The corners of Sheng Shuishui's mouth curled, and he raised his chin upwards: "There's still a little bit left there, wait for the doctor to come and see." β
"Is it ......?" Qiu Yulan didn't know much about medicine, and when she heard this, she looked at the rose cake that had been bitten a little bit on the plate, and she couldn't see anything wrong, her eyes swirled on Sheng Yushui's stomach, and asked implicitly.
"I don't know, but when I eat it, I feel a little different from the usual taste." Sheng Shushui pursed his lips, "Then he put it down...... It didn't take long for me to feel a little flustered and out of breath. β
As he was saying this, there was a commotion outside, followed by several people shouting, "The doctor is here!" The doctor is here! β
"The young lady is inside, doctor, go and take a look!"
"Please, doctor! You must save my young lady......"
Xia Ran looked at the two of them who were gloomy at the same time, and hurriedly pulled the sleeves of the big girl who passed away, and said in a low voice: "It's too noisy outside, won't my sister go out and knock down?" Don't disturb your young lady! β
I don't know if those people intentionally or unintentionally, they actually openly begged the doctor to save their lives...... Isn't this turning a corner, and dying early?
The big girl looked at Sheng Shushui with a sneering eye, and the latter forced a smile: "Forget it! β
Seeing this, Qiu Yulan raised his eyebrows: "I'll take a look!" β
She walked out of the door quickly, and saw a white-headed old man leading a boy with drooping hair, and slowly walked up to the porchβseeing Qiu Yulan dressed luxuriously, Weng Tong and the two hurriedly saluted.
"The sixteenth sister-in-law is inside, doctor, please come in!" Qiu Yulan opened the door with a pleasant face and let them in, but he stood outside the door, looking at the people in the court who were still chattering one by one.
As she watched, the men fell silent.
After a while, seeing that Qiu Yulan still did not withdraw his gaze and return to the room, the court was quiet for a while, and even the noisy cicada chirping seemed to be much lighter at this time.
"Sixteen sister-in-law is pregnant, and it is good to know that you care about her, but so many people are crowded here, and we can't hear each other face to face in it." Qiu Yulan saw them gradually shrinking, but instead of reprimanding them as sharply as they imagined, she said kindly, "So sister-in-law said, let you disperse." β
ββ¦β¦ Be! Everyone responded cautiously, and seeing that Qiu Yulan really didn't mean to continue to be embarrassed, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, saluted her, and slipped away one after another - can you not be afraid? People will be kinder again, even my sister-in-law started to fight directly before! Nothing happened after the fight! Not to mention these subordinates?
Qiu Yulan watched them leave, and then returned to the house, just as the doctor had finished the diagnosis and was writing the prescription by the window.
The room was very quiet, so quiet that it almost froze.
At first glance, you can see that things are not trivial.
Qiu Yulan thought for a while, didn't bother the doctor, but walked over and asked Sheng Shushui softly: "Sixteen sister-in-law, what did the doctor say?" β
Sheng Shushui's face was very ugly: "I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to go and talk to your grandmother......"
She took a deep breath, subconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, and her voice trembled slightly, "The doctor said that there is broken intestine grass powder in that rose cake, and this thing can kill people." Fortunately, there are not many, and I haven't eaten them all, so my life should be worry-free...... But I don't know what to do with the child......" Speaking of this, Rao She has always been calm, and tears can't help but fall in her eyes!
Qiu Yulan is so depressed that I can't say it! Although I considered this result before I came, I still felt that there were three concubines in the four rooms, and in less than a month after I entered the door, my two sisters-in-law all had an accident! She could already think that within a day or two, rumors about her life being bad, so frequent accidents would definitely rise after her husband's house!
"Fortunately, there is no concubine in the nineteenth, otherwise seeing the example of the eighth sister-in-law and the sixteenth sister-in-law, I'm afraid I can't help but go back and kill everyone for safety!" She resisted the urge to vomit blood, comforted Sheng Shushui with a blushing face, and asked again after the doctor prescribed the prescription, and finally asked for a copy of the pulse case, said goodbye to Sheng Shushui, and rushed to see Mrs. Tao.
β¦β¦ originally thought that he would not be able to meet Mrs. Tao for a while and a half, after all, Jiang Ya Zhu's status was far inferior to Jiang Ya Dan, and the situation was not very critical; And the Tao family has already come, Jiang Yadan and his wife are even waiting for interrogation in front of the old lady up and down the room - but they don't want to, after the autumn trail passed, the next person passed the word and went in, and immediately came out to tell her to let her go to the flower hall next to the old lady to wait for the old lady: "The old lady will come after a cup of tea." β
She was surprised and asked in a low voice, "How is the matter with the eighth sister-in-law?" β
"That stuff is full of nonsense, and the old lady is so angry that she chokes!" The maid knew that Old Madam Tao was close to her, so she also whispered, "I heard that the sixteenth young lady was almost killed, so I just left over there and came over to ask you!" β
While speaking, Mrs. Tao was already helped into the door by Mother Hu.
"Grandmother!" Qiu Yulan hurriedly stepped forward to say goodbye.
"Sit down, let's talk carefully, is the sixteenth daughter-in-law okay?" Old Madam Tao's face sank like water, and she walked to the top seat like a gust of wind, pointed to the seat at the bottom head, and said coldly.
Qiu Yulan saw that she was really angry, pursed her lips, and told her what had happened, emphasizing the noise of the concubine's subordinates when the doctor arrived, and the words that seemed to care about Sheng Shushui but were actually cursed: "...... In short, the sixteenth sister-in-law is very scared now, afraid that something bad will happen to the child...... The doctor didn't dare to give the right words. The sixteenth sister-in-law asked her granddaughter-in-law to come over and tell her grandmother quickly, begging her grandmother to call the shots! β
"Smack!" Mrs. Tao took a few cases hard, and directly instructed Mother Hu: "Go and take the people in the sixteenth room, and the housekeeper...... Call me all over! β
Originally, the old lady was in a bad mood, and there was such a thing in Jiangya Zhu's room, which was simply a punching bag sent to the door!
Therefore, after the people in Jiangya's Zhu room were brought over, the old lady didn't even ask, and directly ordered everyone to be rewarded with a whip first-until everyone was beaten to the point that she picked two concubines and a steward to interrogate.
Because Jiang Yazhu's status in the Jiang family was not high, the old lady gave her full power, and this interrogation went exceptionally smoothly. In just half an hour, the ins and outs of the matter became clear: the concubine Yanniang, who was born in the room, also had a body, and was about to say it, but the main mother was also pregnant, in order to compete for favor and attention, Yanniang took advantage of the opportunity of her aunt to serve in the kitchen, under the pretext of talking to her aunt, and secretly sprinkled the broken intestine grass powder in the condiment to make rose cake for Sheng Shushui!
"This Yan Niang, drag it out and sink into the river." After listening to the confession, Mrs. Tao spoke with a gloomy face, "People related to her, whether they are involved in this matter or not, will be sent out!" Also, has Little Sixteen ever returned? If he returns, someone will call him to me!! β
Mother Hu coughed: "Old lady, Yanniang...... Still pregnant with the ...... of the sixteenth son"
"Isn't the sixteenth daughter-in-law also a double body?" Old Madam Tao sneered and said, "It can be seen that the fate of the heirs of the sixteen couples is excellent, is it difficult to have a rare concubine?!" Let her die today! Set an example! β
Hu's mother immediately stopped.
"Take something and go see the sixteenth daughter-in-law for me." The old lady looked dull, sighed and said, "I will also tell the nineteenth daughter-in-law what happened, and let her assist the sixteenth daughter-in-law to clean the backyard!" lest there be such a mess again, so that a good wife can live on thin ice one by one! β
At the end of the sentence, the old lady threw a gloomy glance towards the main hall!
Mother Hu was ordered to the courtyard of Sheng Shushui, and conveyed the relief and disposal results of Mrs. Tao. After hearing this, of course, I was full of gratitude...... It's just that she was grateful, but her expression hesitated.
Seeing this, Mother Hu hurriedly asked, "What is the difficulty of the sixteenth young lady?" Just say it! When the old slave came, the old lady told me that you had been greatly wronged this time, but don't be restrained if you have any ideas, the old lady can do it for you! β
Looking at Sheng Shushui's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Qiu Yulan, who had just finished telling Mrs. Tao about the experience, and then returned to accompany her, was a little surprised: Mrs. Tao's disposal this time was very partial to this sixteenth sister-in-law, not only gave her the opportunity to completely clean up the entire backyard, but also didn't want the child in the concubine's belly, and in this case, she had to make another request, but it was not interesting.
How could Sheng Shushui make such a mistake?
Sure enough, after Ai Ai opened her mouth during the death period, what she said was: "Grandmother loves me like this, where do I have any grievances?" It is...... Although Yan Niang acts viciously, the child in her belly is always the blood of her husband, I think...... Isn't it...... Leave this kid behind? β
Hearing this, the people in the room were stunned, and the big maid who passed away was not even so angry that she blurted out "young lady" and was glared at before she was unwilling to stop.
After a short period of coldness, Sheng Shuishui's eyes gradually turned red again, she tried to hold back her tears, and said in a low voice: "I just think, I don't know if this child in my belly will be good or bad in the future." In case of...... What if...... Yan Niang's child, how can you support each other? β
Qiu Yulan looked at her sister-in-law who was in full bloom, a touch of playfulness flashed in her eyes, she thought about it, but she didn't say anything.
Mother Hu pondered for a while before she said, "Since the sixteenth young lady said so, then the old slave will go and tell the old lady...... It's just that the old lady is very angry about this, and it's hard to say whether it will be accurate. After all, Yan Niang is just a concubine in the end, and she did such a thing, how can she compare with your children if she gives birth to a non-consecutive man or woman? β
β¦β¦ After Hu's mother left, Sheng Shushui reached out and rubbed his face, and smiled tiredly at Qiu Yulan: "Let my younger brothers and sisters smile." β
"Where's the sixteenth sister-in-law? This Yanniang is really fateful, she deserves to be a housewife like you. Qiu Yulan smiled and stood up, "It's not too early, I have to go back to cooking...... What does my sister-in-law want to eat today? β
"You've been with me all day now, and you've run errands for me to my grandmother, so why are you embarrassed to work again? Just ask Mother Li to cook a few dishes casually, I won't pick them. Sheng Shushui said busily.
Qiu Yulan said: "You're welcome, I'll cook for Nineteen too, just make a few dishes for you." β
Sheng Shushui couldn't refuse, so he ordered a few side dishes that were not troublesome to make, and Qiu Yulan wrote them down and left-as soon as he returned to his yard, Su He couldn't help but ask: "Young lady, why does the sixteenth young lady want to keep Yanniang's child?" What if the child grows up and holds a grudge? β
