Chapter 40: Pregnant Again
The subordinates carried Qiu Yulan into the inner room to lie down, and after a while, the doctor was invited, and when he probed the pulse, he congratulated him with a smile: "Young lady, this is there!" β
In the end, Jiang Jinglang has already been born, and Qiu Lulan is also considered to be a person, and there was a guess when he vomited before, but the doctor confirmed it before he was relieved. At this moment, I couldn't help but bend the corners of my mouth when I heard this: "Reward!" β
Not only did the doctor be rewarded, but the whole courtyard also received an extra month's monthly money, and it was as happy as the New Year for a while. It was so lively, since someone inquired, so after a while, the news that the nineteenth young lady was pregnant again spread throughout the entire Guogong Mansion.
When Mrs. Tao learned this, she was very happy, and she was busy opening a private treasury, taking a lot of suitable things, and asking Hu's mother to send them to congratulate herself.
The other rooms also began to prepare congratulatory giftsβonly Chu Yitong listened to it and entered the inner room without saying a word.
"Go and inquire about what the Fourteenth Young Lady has sent, prepare a congratulatory gift for her, and send it to the Nineteenth Young Lady!" Mother Zhu sighed, shouted to the big girl and hurriedly admonished, and hurried into the inner room to persuade Chu Yitong.
"The nineteenth young lady is always in the same room with you, and now that she has a body again, it is reasonable, you should go over and see for yourself." After Zhu's mother went in, she saw Chu Yitong holding a small dress and sitting on the couch in a daze - she recognized that the little dress was made by Chu Yitong when she was pregnant before, her heart was sour, and she persuaded in a low voice.
Chu Yitong didn't look up, stared at the small clothes made of stitches and threads in his hand, and said faintly: "The first time I saw her was in Jinxiupo, and I didn't have a mother on the way back to Beijing from there. Although the death of the mother concubine was committed by the slut of the Kang family, if she hadn't forced the Kang family into a corner, how could she be a little little for her father with the Kang family? And Kang's seems to have said that she can make her father small, and it seems that she also has this cousin's needle, right? In the end, she is also my mother-killing enemy! β
"I don't want the world to be unpredictable, I actually became a concubine with her! For the sake of my father's advice, I think the matter of the mother concubine will be settled...... After all, if it weren't for my vigorous pleading, the mother concubine wouldn't have wanted to go to Jinxiu Slope at that time! β
"But my child ......"
Chu Yitong's eyes were in a trance, as if crying and laughing, "Why doesn't she help me?" It's just that I don't think I'm worthy of her help? Huainan Wangfu listened to the lintel above the Guogong Mansion, but the power was beyond reach. I'm just a continuation, and that's how my husband treats me...... Wouldn't it do her much good to help me? Mom, don't you say? β
Zhu Ma said: "Young lady, the old slave thinks that the nineteenth young lady said that there is no such medicine in her hand, it should be true." Otherwise, the year before last, Hou Ye, last year's Kui County, if she still had such a medicine, why didn't she take it out? β
If it is to see people administering medicine, in the case of Qin Guogong alive, the revenge for saving those two is not enough to describe it!
"I don't want to see her!" Chu Yitong said coldly, "When I see her, I think of Jinxiu Slope!" Thinking of Kang's family and thinking of his mother Concubine Mo - you can arrange a gift or something, and say that I am sick! β
As he spoke, he raised his hand and put the tent down, obviously not planning to discuss it any further.
"......" Zhu mother opened her mouth: The concubine in the same room, the younger brother and daughter-in-law said that if she is pregnant again, the sister-in-law will call her sick, can this not be a rumor?
It's just that I wish my mother to know that the death of Princess Huainan was a very big blow to Chu Yitong, if it weren't for Chu Weixian's love for his sister and every persuasion and care, Chu Yitong wanted to accompany his mother for two years. Asking Qiu Lulan for medicine to no avail is just an introduction, I wish my mother can understand that Qiu Lulan said that there is no such medicine is not a prevarication, how could Chu Yitong not know?
"I don't know when the young lady will be able to let go of the princess?" Mother Zhu sighed and retreated, taking care of the aftermath for Chu Yitong.
Qiu Yulan didn't know these inside information, and she didn't care that Chu Yitong didn't come to congratulate her in person like other concubines: "Maybe it's because I'm pregnant and it's sad again?" At the weekly banquet two days ago, she couldn't listen to the children's topics...... That's fine, so as not to break her heart again! β
Zhuang Man swallowed a piece of snack, patted the crumbs on his hands, and agreed: "It's best if she doesn't come, otherwise we will stab her heart harmoniously, and we will try our best to ruin people's interest!" β
He Shuijin made a silent gesture, and said with a smile: "The people who are out of the pavilion are still talking so meanly!" Let the eighth sister-in-law hear it, but you have to make a feud! β
"I'm just curious that I haven't heard that the county lord of Huainan Mansion is stingy before, why is it like a different person after marrying the eighth cousin?" Zhuang Man said disapprerovingly, "Calculate the age of her, she is about the same age as us, I thought that after passing the door, I would become relatives and I could play with multiple people!" As a result, it is not as gregarious as the previous eight sisters-in-law - the previous eight sisters-in-law are more than ten years older than us! β
"The eighth sister-in-law has not been very well since she gave birth last year, so she probably didn't come here in person, right?" Qiu Yulan Yuanchang, "It's all ...... my own family" just said this, Chu Yitong's eldest maid sent a congratulatory gift, and said: "Originally, the young lady of my family wanted to come to congratulate you in person, but unfortunately, she was not very good, and she was afraid that she would be sick with you, so she ......"
"Look, I say, right?" Sent this big girl, Qiu Lulan said to Zhuang Man, He Shui Jin and others.
Zhuang Man was a little sneered: "Ouch, I misunderstood the eighth sister-in-law, and she didn't know!" β
"It's Birthday soon......" and Shui Jin thoughtfully changed the topic to avoid the embarrassment of the scene.
β¦β¦ Holy Birthday is just around the corner.
This is the second Holy Birthday Festival after Jiang Tianluan became the Queen Mother, and the previous one didn't have the heart to celebrate because of the fierce infighting in the Jiang family, but just gave a hasty banquet. This year, the situation is generally stable, and Qin Guogong, who originally thought it would be a failure, has survived again, and since the middle of the year, there have been happy events in the royal family one after another - in short, this Holy Birthday Festival is very grand and grand.
It was so grand that the emperor personally handled most of the arrangements and arrangements.
"Your Majesty is really pure filial piety!" On the day of the Holy Birthday Day, the ministers ordered the wives to enter the palace to congratulate, looking at the splendid and splendid palace, and everyone praised the emperor's filial piety.
Empress Dowager Jiang pretended to be displeased: "Originally, the mourning family said that there was no need to make such a big move, but this child refused to ...... With the respect of ten thousand vehicles, he has been busy for so long! The ostentation in that tone can even be heard by the deaf, "He also pulled Yongfu and them together, and insisted on taking the words of the mourning family as a deaf ear!" β
"The child has to be taught by the queen mother to have today, how can he ignore the holy life of the queen mother?" The emperor smiled and groaned, his eyes were admired, and his demeanor was humble, "And most of the things are done by Yongfu them, and the children just beat them!" As he spoke, he looked at Le Xin, King Wei, Yongfu and others in turn.
"The emperor's brother praised it, this arrangement is all the emperor's proposal!"
"Why should the royal brother be humble? We're pretty much the same for you! β
Of course, Le Xin and others would not be stupid enough to admit it, and said that the emperor should take the lead in the preparations for the Holy Birthday Festival.
Such brothers and sisters are harmonious, the queen mother is kind, showing family love, and the atmosphere is warm.
In this warm atmosphere, the birthday banquet began, and during the banquet, the Empress Dowager Jiang specially asked Qiu Yulan about her pregnancy, and personally instructed her to pay attention to the dishes to avoid taste, and once again reminded everyone that the Empress Dowager had a preference for the Jiang family's four rooms.
I don't know whether to read the face of Qiu Yulan or the face of Concubine Miao, Empress Dowager Jiang then noticed Wang Qingqian, who went to the banquet with her aunt, and after asking a few words, she rewarded a pair of hibiscus pearl hairpins. Let this quasi-Wei princess, who is almost forgotten, enter the sight of the nobles again.
After the Holy Birthday Festival, it is the day when the cadres of Kui County arrive in Beijing.
Because Jiang Tianqiao's generation has not yet been filial, it was Jiang Yayun who started this trip, so the people sent by Jingzhong to greet him were also his peers. The Guogong Mansion produced two idlers, Jiang Yayi and Jiang Yadan, and the Hou Mansion sent Jiang Yalan - also idlers.
The three brothers welcomed dozens of miles out of the city, picked up people into Beijing, and first went to the Guogong Mansion to meet Qin Guogong and his wife - out of fear that Qin Guogong's emotions would not be good for his health, and he didn't want the people in the second and fifth rooms to spend too much time with Qin Guogong, so they didn't say a few words to Qin Guogong, and only after reporting their names and identities one by one, Dr. Lin came up to persuade Qin Guogong to drink medicine.
Jiang Tianqi took advantage of the situation and instructed Jiang Yayun: "You take Zhao'er and Wan'er to see your second aunt, your second uncle has been tired these days, and after drinking the medicine, I am afraid that he will be resettled." β
Jiang Yayun bowed his head and said yes, and led the two cousins and their families to Mrs. Tao's courtyard, and at this time, the ladies of the Guogong Mansion were already waiting here.
After seeing the ceremony, Mrs. Tao took a look at Jiang Yazhao and Jiang Yawan, these two nephews did not look like the children of the Jiang family, it was estimated that it was because of Mrs. Han. However, Jiang Jingdui of the great-grandchildren's generation is quite similar to Jiang Jingxu and others between their eyebrows and eyes.
The fourth young lady He and the fifth young lady Jin are the daughters of the squires in Kui County, and their knowledge is limited, and what they have seen and heard since entering Beijing has been an eye-opener, especially after entering the Guogong Mansion, the atmosphere of the Jiang family's power leaning towards the government and the opposition has already deeply shocked them. At this moment, although the ladies of the Guogong Mansion are all amiable from the old lady down, they still dare not raise their heads tremblingly.
"You've had a hard time!" Seeing this, Mrs. Tao, who was already very kind and kind, asked them in a gentle tone about the fatigue of the journey, and said, "The accommodation has been prepared, but I don't know your habits, I will let the fourteenth daughter-in-law accompany you to have a look, but there is something missing, just tell her!" β
He shouted Jiang Jingwan and Jiang Jingman to come to him, touched his face and squeezed his hands, and said with a smile, "The two children are about the same age as Jing Yi, Jing Huai, and Jing Jun, and they just happened to study together!" β
Hearing this, Jiang Yazhao and Jiang Yawan hurriedly thanked her: "The reason why I took them to Beijing was to ask him to get together more with his brothers!" Over there in Kui County, this generation is now just two brothers. β
This was said silently for a while - the second room and the fifth room can't go out, and there is nothing else to do except serve the old father, and the two rooms are full of wives and concubines, but the heirs just can't prosper, and there is always only one son, not even a daughter. When it comes to the great-grandchildren, there are a few more girls, but the male heirs still can't escape the fate of a single pass. Jiang Ya gave birth to two sons later, but the eldest son Jiang Jingzhan died unexpectedly last year, in the end, Jiang Jingman is still the youngest son?
Jiang Jingwan and Jiang Jingman are the only two great-grandchildren in the second and fifth rooms.
"Fortunately, they are all coming to Beijing now, and their brothers and sisters will not be less!" Old Madam Tao frowned, then smiled and said, "These are your daughters?" It's all handsome...... Come, come closer, and tell my aunt to take a good look! β
