Chapter 309: Production
Although Gu Shao was a little calculating this time, Song Yixiao was not angry-after all, Qiu Zhiyin's death was equivalent to reducing a hidden danger for her.
What's more, although Gu Shao was unwilling to have a bad relationship with the Yanguo Mansion, Song Yixiao didn't want to offend this powerful minister.
In the end, although the Hongzhou Gu family revealed that there was no successor, Gu Shao was not dead!
After she cleared herself out of this matter, she didn't care anymore - the day after Xie Yiren and his wife came to pay New Year's greetings, it was Queen Su's birthday.
In previous years, this day was a simple family banquet, but this year, Emperor Xianjia had already spoken, and he must hold a big one.
He naturally did this with the intention of giving the queen a long face, so as not to let everyone see that the queen's parents and children were passed out and underestimate the master of the middle palace.
It's just that it's rare to have a grand Qianqiu Festival, but Song Yixiao can only listen to her husband come back afterwards and tell her that she will give birth next month, and it may be an accident to bump into some of the bones, but the Queen Mother and the Queen have successively spoken, telling her to be sure to have a safe baby at home, don't go around.
Queen Qianqiu is still so compassionate, and then the birthday of Princess Yushan, the Lantern Festival banquet, the birthday of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, the birthday of Mrs. Cao, and the birthday of the lord of Qingjiang...... This series of days will not ask her to go, but let her enjoy a lot of leisure.
From the end of last year to the beginning of February, the only thing Song Yixiao personally asked about was the fourth day of February, the full weekly ceremony of the twins born by the Lu family.
"Speaking of which, your own birthday is also approaching, but last year because of the death of Uncle Yijing, you didn't do it." Jian was empty and discussed with her, "Why do you have to be lively this year, right?" ”
Song Yi smiled when she heard this: "Look at my struggling appearance now, what kind of excitement can I make?" ”
Naturally, the simple proposal could only be abandoned.
But what no one expected was that on the morning of the ninth day of the second lunar month, Song Yixiao walked a few steps in the courtyard with the help of the maid, and suddenly felt a faint pain in her abdomen, and there was a feeling of falling - because the calculated birth date was also in these days, she was not surprised, only held Jinxun's hand, and ordered in a deep voice: "I seem to be about to give birth, go and call someone!" ”
Jin Xun was so frightened that he turned around and ran, and after a while, Aunt Yun hurried to Keshaotang with Wen Po, and at this time Song Yixiao had been helped to the prepared delivery room.
Aunt Yun looked at it, and said, "It's really going to be born!" ”
At this moment, the entire Yanguo Mansion was busy, and although Aunt Yun was a doctor, although she was busy, she ordered someone to go to the kitchen to boil water to prepare for the delivery, and on the other hand, she did not forget to send someone to report to the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom and Jian Xubai.
The eldest princess and Jian Xubai arrived immediately after receiving the report, at this time Song Yixiao's production had begun, and the mother and son stood anxiously on the corridor, listening to the intermittent moans coming from the delivery room, as well as the noise of Yun Gu and the others, their faces were pale!
"Your Highness, it'll be fine." Seeing this, Jia Yue hurriedly tugged on the eldest princess's sleeve and whispered comfortingly, "Mrs. Song has always been in good health, and this baby has been carefully nursed by the female doctor from the beginning, didn't Aunt Yun say it again?" Mrs. Song's fetal position is very positive, and she will definitely be able to give birth to an heir safely! ”
In fact, Jia Yue felt that the state of the eldest princess was very wrong, Song Yixiao was the daughter-in-law of the eldest princess and not her daughter, and the eldest princess herself had given birth to several children, so even if she was worried about her daughter-in-law, it would not be to the point of gaffe, right?
Under normal circumstances, the eldest princess should calm down and comfort Jian Xubai!
But I don't know why, Jian Xubai was persuaded to calm down by the county lord of Qingjiang and Mrs. Shou Chunbo, who arrived later, but the eldest princess's expression became more and more bad, Jia Yue occasionally lowered her head, and even saw that the silk handkerchief she was holding tightly had been soaked with sweat from her hands!
"How so?" Jia Yue was very surprised, but he also knew that now was not the time to ask this, so he had to whisper comfort in the ear of the eldest princess.
"That's how Yishui went back then!" It's just that what she thought was considerate made the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom more and more upset, and she blurted out coldly, "The doctor who guards her production is also from the Splendid Hall-"
Having said this, seeing Jia Yue's stunned expression, the eldest princess Fang reacted, sighed, and said dejectedly, "This palace is confused!" How can such a thing be mentioned right now? It's just that after passing through Yishui, this palace can't trust the doctors of Jinxiutang like the world! ”
If she is really a person with excellent medical skills and rejuvenation, why can't she save her cousin?
Jia Yue didn't know what to say when he heard this, so he only subconsciously glanced at Jian Xubai and the others not far away, and saw that they were all listening attentively to the movements in the delivery room, and didn't notice the words of the eldest princess, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a forced smile: "Your Highness, the doctor is not an immortal, how can there be no accidents?" Mrs. Song looks like a blessed one, otherwise why would she be loved by the Queen Mother and you? The slave maid told the truth, although Mrs. Song was not as noble as the county lord, she was still above the county lord in terms of blessings! So Mrs. Song will definitely be safe for mother and child! ”
"Let's hope so!" Xu is the death of the county lord of Yishui in childbirth back then, the shadow brought to the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom is too profound, she listened to these words, but the irritability between her eyebrows still did not fade, but Jia Yue looked at Jian Xubai and their movements, in the end the eldest princess came to her senses, forced down the distracting thoughts, and commanded in a low voice, "Fang Cai's words must not let Ah Xuan know!" ”
Jia Yue hurriedly said: "The slave obeys!" ”
…… Song Yixiao didn't know the situation outside the delivery room.
In fact, she won't be able to think about anyone or anything anymore - the overwhelming feeling is a pain word!
With this completely strange pain comes fear.
No matter how many things Yun Gu taught her to pay attention to during childbirth in advance, and no matter how much preparation she made, when it was really time to give birth, Song Yixiao still felt indescribable fear.
She was afraid of dystocia, afraid of death, and even more afraid that after her own death, the child survived, but fell into the hands of her stepmother...... All kinds of emotions were intertwined, making her lose her judgment on the passage of time, and almost instinctively followed Yun Gu's calm and short command.
I don't know how long it took, finally!
A loud cry resounded through the delivery room, and everyone inside and outside breathed a long sigh of relief!
Then the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom and Jian Xubai asked in unison: "How is Ah Xu's daughter-in-law (Shanyao)?" ”
When Aunt Yun replied that the mother was all safe, but after she had just given birth and was a little weaker, the eldest princess asked happily, "Where is the child?" Packed up? Hug it out and see! ”
When I chose the delivery room earlier, I took into account that the weather would still be cold, so the entire corridor was sealed with glass, and the earth dragon was also set up underneath, which was not cold at all, and the newborn who landed on the ground was not afraid of the cold.
After a while, Wen Po came out with a swaddling cloth embroidered with a big red background and a peony - there were two kinds of swaddling clothes in the delivery room, and when they saw that the pattern was a peony, everyone knew in their hearts: it was a girl.
If it were a boy, it would be time to be wrapped in silk and red background unicorn playing beads.
The county lord of Qingjiang and Mrs. Shou Chunbo were a little disappointed.
It's not that they don't like this girl, the main thing is that Song Yixiao doesn't have the support of her mother's family, she is simple and young and promising, from the perspective of Song Yixiao's long-term consideration, she gave birth to her eldest son a day earlier, which will help stabilize her position, and it will also deter those who are climbing on the branches to be phoenixes.
But Song Yixiao only got a daughter this time, calculating the time, she actually entered the door for less than two years, but because it was the second half of the year, and now it is the beginning of the year, she has been in the Yanguo Mansion for two years, and it can be said that she has been married for three years.
After three years of marriage, the couple only had one daughter under their knees, and the Jian family was not a very prosperous family - how could the issue of heirs not be mentioned?
The previous Xie Yiren is an example, she has been in the door for less than a year, and she hasn't turned around for years!
However, the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom and Jian Xubai did not have any dissatisfaction or regret, looking at the little red faces in the swaddling clothes, the mother and son both smiled happily: "These eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Ah Xu's childhood!" ”
Jian Xubai took advantage of the situation to take her daughter from the eldest princess: "Really? Let me take a good look. ”
As a result, when he received it, the little baby opened his mouth and cried, and he was in a hurry, and asked Wen Po in a panic: "What's going on?!" Is she uncomfortable?! ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Seeing this, the eldest princess hurriedly snatched the swaddling clothes back, hugged her arm and gently patted and coaxed for a while, and saw that the child's crying was getting weaker, so she laughed at her son, "I know that I want to be a father and I don't learn how to hold the child, you should hug the porcelain pillow?" When the child feels uncomfortable, he will naturally cry! ”
The county lord of Qingjiang and Mrs. Shou Chunbo both laughed when they heard this: "The fourth brother doesn't want his little niece to have a share with you in the future, this child has to study hard!" Otherwise, the little niece will cry as soon as she arrives in your hands, and the younger siblings will not let you touch it! ”
"This is natural." Jian Xubai smiled awkwardly, he and Song Yixiao were both first-time parents, even if they were full of joy to welcome the arrival of the bloodline, it was inevitable that there would be negligence.
Everyone excitedly talked about the newborn for a while, only to find that Aunt Yun had been inside and was worried, but the door of the delivery room happened to open, and Aunt Yun, who was a little tired, walked out.
"Aunt Yun has worked hard!" Jian Xubai hurriedly left her daughter to meet her, and after saying that she was tired, she asked urgently, "Good lady, will this?" ”
"Madame was so tired that she fell asleep." Yun Gu said calmly, "I cleaned up for my wife, so I came out a little late - Miss took it out for a while, it's time to let the nurse come over!" ”
When the eldest princess heard this, she hurriedly handed over the swaddling clothes to Wen Po, and solemnly advised: "Serve well, this palace and Ah Xuan and his wife have their own heavy rewards, if you dare to slack off, you will never be spared!" ”
Wen Po still saw the eldest princess of the dynasty for the first time, and when she heard this, she responded with fear, and bent her knees to salute everyone, and then took the child and retreated, and went to breastfeed the nurse. Milk house.
The advantage of the powerful family is that they don't have to worry about it after giving birth, and the child has his own nursing mother to take care of him, so he can rest assured that he can recover - Song Yixiao started on the morning of the ninth day of February, because the initial birth was more difficult, and her body was not as strong as Princess Liang, so she gave birth to her daughter after sunset in the evening.
After that, he fell asleep and did not open his eyes until the next afternoon.
Although the sleep was longer than usual, the effect was excellent.
When I woke up, although I still felt a faint pain all over my body, the strength in my bones seemed to have been drained and not replenished, and I recovered a lot of vitality.
After the mother-in-law who had been guarding the couch served her to rinse her mouth and wipe her face, Aunt Yun personally brought chicken soup in, Song Yixiao drank most of the bowl, and felt that her spirit was much better, so she asked, "What about the child?" ”
She wasn't very worried about the child, mainly because she had seen it before she was carried out of the delivery room yesterday: her daughter was very strong, and her crying voice was full of neutrality.
- Otherwise, even if she was extremely tired at the time, she would not have been able to sleep.
Sure enough, Aunt Yun heard the words and said, "At the nurse's place, I just finished eating, and I want to fall asleep." Madame wants to see it now? If you want to see it, just hug it. ”
Song Yixiao was about to answer, when a little maid outside the door raised her voice and said, "The princess of the in-laws and the grandmother of the in-laws are here!" ”
