Huizhu had a typhoid fever, and she had just had a body, so she had to rest on the couch. Imperial Physician Li didn't talk to anyone that day, and said directly in front of everyone: "Niu Colu Fujin has already fallen ill in childbirth, and it is extremely rare to be able to spread the happy event again, but the illness has fallen, and the palace must be cold." But now Niu Co Lu Fujin is worried about the wind and cold, his heart is depressed, and the fetus is very weak, so he needs to be cautious and cautious in order to survive the first three months, and then he can talk about the future. In this way, everyone has nothing to say, so they can only take it all by Huizhu Mingli and stay in their own yard to recuperate and have a baby.

Moreover, Huizhu's fetus is still two months away, and Imperial Doctor Li specially instructed Huizhu to lie down for half a month like a confinement before she can get out of bed, otherwise there will be a risk of slipping the tire. So these days, Huizhu lay on the 'bed' and couch all day long, taking 'medicine' and falling asleep, and then on the same day, the wind and cold went away, and people came to the 'spirit', but they couldn't get out of the 'bed', and they had to lie down.

One day after taking a nap, Huizhu ordered Xiaojuan to take the cloth front to do work, Su Xin personally brought the soup 'medicine' into the house, and said when she saw this: "Oh, master, you just rest for a while, don't always take the front line and hurt your eyes carefully." ”

Huizhu stopped the needle and thread in her hand, looked up and said: "Suo 'sex' is lying down and has nothing to do, so I will make some children's clothes and hats, and wait for the seventh period, and burn the eldest sister's little Gege together." Su Xin persuaded: "The master will make seven for her, and when she can stay, it is not too late to make the last one." Even if you want to do more, there are slaves and maids to help, and it is indispensable" Huizhu shook her head and said: "I want to rush to Qiqi and make some small clothes for her." When Su Xin heard Huizhu say this, she sighed helplessly, so she put aside her words and washed herself with 'medicine'.

Huizhu took the 'medicine', and took the needle and thread to do the work, Su Xin picked up the 'medicine' bowl of spittoon, let Xiaojuan clean it up, found an embroidery pier to sit down in front of the 'bed', and said: "I can stay in the house the day after tomorrow, but the master will go to ask for peace in the future, or wait for March to resume the peace." Huizhu continued to sit and work, without raising her head, and said: "It's already in the lunar month, and the half moon is the New Year, and the city of Fujin will be exempted from asking for peace." Su Xin listened, his mind turned, and said with a smile: "It's freezing outside, and the road is muddy, so the master is too lazy to ask for peace, or wait for the New Year to open the 'spring', and the belly is also big, and then there will be a goodbye." ”

Huizhu rested her work again, stroked her belly, frowned, and said: "They haven't been built since they were pregnant, and now they have to postpone half a month before leaving the courtyard, and the ceremony is always bad." Speaking of this, Huizhu was bored, and her face sank for a long time, and then she thought of a way to say: "They all sent congratulatory gifts, and I gave them a return gift according to the New Year's gift, which is barely reasonable." Su Xin agreed: "It's so good, it's not polite, but this gift also includes a New Year's gift, but it has to be thicker." ”

Huizhu thought for a while, and then ordered: "Counting the ninth season, it is good to send 'fur' skins." You go and pick out a few good 'fur' skins, and then take some 'medicine' materials and a few small miscellaneous items to send to Fujin, Li Fujin, and Nian Fujin. As for Geng Geger, he also sent a dozen 'fur' skins, and the others just sent general after-materials and small miscellaneous items. Su Xin was embarrassed: "Curry only has three 'wool' skins, send one skin to Niu Co Lu Mansion, and always have to leave one horse for the master and the little brother, which is also calculated, only one horse can be obtained, and there are still three horses missing." ”

The affairs in the treasury have been 'handed over' to Su Xin to take care of, Huizhu is not clear about the number of 'hair' skins, this next listen, I can't help but worry, now is the time when the various prefectures and courtyards are busy preparing for the New Year's goods, all kinds of items are in short supply, it is not easy to find the best 'hair' skins outside the customs, even if you have money, you may not be able to get one, not to mention three horses.

Su Xin proposed: "Why don't you just add 'fur' to the gift of Fu Jinbei, and replace the rest with your head?" Huizhu thought about it and said, "Go and see if Manager Wen can think of a way, if it still doesn't work, then do as you say." Su Xin got up and said: "This matter is also urgent, the slave maid will send Xiao Ranzi to pass the word, and I will be prepared for the letter early." As he spoke, he came out of the curtain and went to the pantry.

In the pantry, Xiao Ran Zizheng was eating dim sum, and chatting happily with Mama Zhang, seeing that Su Xin was coming, he got up and sat down and poured tea. Su Xin took the bowl, ate two bites, and said with a smile: "Mama is talking to Xiao Ranzi about something, I have to find him to do something." Mama Zhang smiled and said: "What can you say, that is, you are moving some tea, in the past half a month, the master has come diligently, and the tea is very drunk, the first half of the jar is gone, and you are sharing tea paste with Xiao Ranzi, and you are here." Su Xin said: "But it disturbed Mama?" Mama Zhang stopped and said: "No, no, the master only came over in the evening, the hour is still very early, or there is no time, and it will be 'done', but you have something urgent, tell Xiao Ranzi and let him do it." After saying this, Su Xin didn't say much to greet, waved Xiao Ranzi to him, told him about it, and sent Xiao Ranzi away.

In the evening, Yinzhen came to the courtyard, changed his clothes and hats in the room, and just entered the bedroom, Hongli climbed down the 'bed' couch with a few knocks, knelt down and asked Andao: "Son Hongli please Ama Da'an." Yinzhen lifted the hem, sat down on the red sandalwood carved 'flower' chair, let Hongli get up, and asked: "I'm obedient today, do you want to worry about E-niang?" Hongli's 'milk' voice 'milk' was angry to 2: "Obedient, Hongli is red, reciting poems, and Eniang also praised Hongli." ”

Yin Zhen nodded with satisfaction, asked a few more words, and let Hongli play by himself.

Yin Zhen looked at Huizhu and said, "I asked Su Xin and said that you only used a bowl of rice this morning, which is too little." However, I have ordered the kitchen to stew soup for you, and when you go to bed, you can eat some. Huizhu complained in a low voice: "I ate too much at night, I can't digest the accumulated food, and the soup and vegetables are oily..."

For a while, Xiaowen Xiaowu brought dinner into the house, Yinzhen and Huizhu stopped talking and ate separately. Later, before going to bed, Yin Zhen saw that Su Xin had collected the dishes and came out, and knew that Huizhu had used the soup and vegetables, so he put down the official document fold, left the desk, and went around the screen into the bedroom. Huizhu's stomach was bulging, and she thought that Yinzhen was too domineering, so she was a little angry in her heart, and when she saw Yinzhen coming, she didn't open her mouth, and she was doing needlework by herself.

Yin Zhen sank his face and said, "There is so much needlework to do?" Holding a needle at night hurt my eye. I remember mentioning it to you many times before, and you don't understand it, or what?

Since lying on the couch these days, Huizhu has never done needlework at night, just took the work she did in the afternoon and put it on a show. At this time, Yinzhen didn't speak well, so he 'wanted' to put down the needle and thread, and then felt that he had lost face and didn't want to put it down, so he actually rested on his hand for a while, frozen on the ground.

For a long time, Yinzhen didn't answer, so he sat aside and drank tea leisurely. Huizhu glanced at Yinzhen, exhaled lightly, pursed her lips, placed the needle and thread, remembered something, and discussed: "Master, the concubine will be able to get out of bed in two days, and it is time to go to ask for peace, but now it is the tenth day of the first month, and it will not be long before the New Year, the road outside is very slippery, and the concubine wants to wait for the New Year, and her body is full of March before going to ask for peace, is it feasible?" Yin Zhen looked at Huizhu with her eyes fixedly, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she spoke after a while: "You sent someone to tell Fujin that she will let you raise it in the yard with peace of mind." ”

Huizhu thanked him, and talked to Yinzhen for a while, and Xiao Luzi entered the house and said, "Master, it's almost over, shouldn't it..." Huizhu wondered, raised her eyes to look at Yinzhen, only to see Yinzhen frowning slightly and contemplating: "You rest early, I have to leave beforehand." Hui Zhu said: "It's all dark, it's wind and snow outside, don't go, there's something to do, just dismantle someone and send it over." Yin Zhen's tone was cold: "It's nothing, the place is not far away, you can rest first, I will rest in the Nian's courtyard today." After that, he instructed Huizhu to pay close attention to the 'door' and window carefully, and then turned to leave.

Two days passed quickly, and Huizhu's body was almost recovered, and she was finally able to get up and get out of bed. On the morning of this day, due to the frost and snow on the road outside, I walked around the house and moved my shins.

Suddenly, I saw Xiao Ranzi leading a person over, and when I got closer, I found that it was Mama Wang, who was 'wanting' to speak and say hello, Mama Wang hurriedly walked a few steps, walked to the front, and asked An to salute and said: "The old slave please Niu Co Lu Fu Jin Da'an." Huizhu held Su Xin's hand and sat down while returning to the upper seat while chattering to let the seat have refreshments.

After a false salute, Mama Wang was 'coloring' and said: "Look at Niu Co Lu Fujin is not very good now, but you have to recuperate, Fu Jin said, the road outside is slippery, and your body is not very good, so you can take care of your body in a variety of ways, and wait for the 'spring', out of the New Year, please be safe in the recovery." Huizhu said politely: "Xie Fujin is sympathetic, I only let people sue this morning, but I didn't want to ask my grandmother to come over to tell me." Mama Wang secretly looked at Huizhu for a while, glanced at her stomach several times, and then smiled: "Fujin has actually had this meaning for a long time, and I want you to raise more." I specially asked the old slave to come over today, just to see that you are very good, and now that you are indeed good, Fujin should also rest assured. After speaking, I ate tea, asked a few words of concern, and left.

Huizhu saw that the people were gone, and also went to the inner room, Su Xin followed with him, and said: "Fujin is enough to give the master dignity, but I don't know what I think in my heart." Huizhu said indifferently: "Whatever you think, it will allow me to pass the first few months in peace, and I will make more children's clothes before Qiqi." As he spoke, he entered the back room.

In the house, Hongli was lying on the kang, holding a pen in his hand, scratching something, and when he saw Huizhu coming in, he muttered: "Eniang." Instantly, a warm smile appeared on Huizhu's face, 'touching' her belly that had not yet bulged, looking at Hongli, and responding softly.
