Mother Tao's heart skipped a beat when she listened.

"Are you sure?" The words of doubt blurted out, and then regretted it.

She has been observing Eleven Niang these days. Eleven Niang is smart, but she is very low-key. People like her, who are not 100% sure, will never speak at will.

The thought flashed, and she couldn't help but look up at Eleven Niang.

Under the soft light, Eleven Niang sat upright like a pine. The eyes that were as bright as the stars were staring at her quietly at the moment. reminded her of the bottomless ancient well, and the cool air hit people......

In the flint lightning, she suddenly understood.

Eleven Niang is asking her to make a statement.

What should I do if Qiao Lianfang is pregnant?

Her mind spun at once.

Yuan Niang is her grandmother, and she has both the grace of breastfeeding and the love of nurturing. What's more, Yuan Niang is so smart and clever, lively and well-behaved, so she likes it when she looks at it. In her heart, she is a more important person than her husband and closer than her son...... didn't expect that she would die of illness. Fortunately, he left a drop of blood from Brother Chen. No matter what, she has to protect Brother Zhen well, so that her bloodline can continue forever.

But now, Brother Zhen is still young and needs the protection of Eleven Niang. Therefore, she will help Eleven Niang - provided that Eleven Niang will protect Brother Zhen's interests.

Mother Tao smiled slightly: "Madam, it takes ten months from pregnancy to childbirth...... You don't have to rush. ”

Eleven Niang looked at Mother Tao: "I'm afraid you're in a hurry." ”

Tao's mother shook slightly.

Eleven Niang's expression was very serious: "Mother Tao." I hope you can remember the purpose for which you helped me. Her voice was a little stern, "Since it doesn't affect Brother Zhen, you don't want to make any extraneous branches." ”

Mother Tao stared at the resoluteness between Eleven Niang's eyebrows, although she didn't make a sound for a long time, her eyes flashed. Then he half-squatted down and gave her a blessing respectfully: "This is a matter in the lady's house." I'm from the lady's house. Naturally, I listened to my wife's orders. I was afraid that she would not be at ease, so she said, "What's more, Aunt Qiao gave birth to a son, so she has to surpass the second young master." ”

To be honest, Eleven Niang is really afraid that this Tao's mother has something in mind - she is very familiar with Xu Mansion and is also shrewd, she is afraid that she will not be able to prevent it and will not be able to stop it.

Sending Mother Tao away, she instructed Amber: "Find a way to keep Mother Tao in mind." ”

Amber nodded.

Tao's mother wants to protect Brother Zhen's interests, and she wants to protect the interests of Eleven Niang.

If something happened to Qiao Lianfang at this time, the most suspicious thing would be Eleven Niang.

Thinking of this, she felt that Qiao Lianfang's hiding like this had simply driven her to the needle felt. couldn't help but mutter: "What does Aunt Qiao want to do?" If you're pregnant, you won't tell us? ”

"She can do whatever she wants!" Eleven Niang smiled, "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married." The child is hers. As long as it doesn't mess with us. Speaking of this, she smiled at Amber, "What's more, you gave such a big gift to Aunt Qiao, and Aunt Qiao deserves it." Others are going to be upset. ”

Amber was puzzled. After thinking for a while, he said, "Do you mean the third lady?" I'm afraid she'll add fuel and vinegar in front of Mrs. Tai......"

"It's not." Eleven Niang shook her head gently.

The third lady is now thinking about opening a mansion alone, thinking about making a fortune no matter how big or small it is before leaving the Xu family. If it was in normal times, she would definitely be upset in her heart, but now, maybe Aunt Yi would also think of a way to go back to her parents' house, and then reward her according to Qiao Lian's room. As for whether these gifts will appear at Aunt Yi's maiden home, that's another matter.

Thinking of this, she smiled brightly: "Let's not worry, just wait." ”

Eleven Niang is not in a hurry, but some people are in a hurry.

Early the next morning, two mothers came to Cheng Guogong's mansion. said that he was ordered by Mrs. Qiao to come to deliver something to Qiao Lianfang: "...... The tent hasn't been used since our wife got it. It's winter again, and the mothers haven't found it for most of the day. Mrs. annoyed the mother in charge, so let me look for it overnight. No, as soon as we found it, we sent it over. As he spoke, he raised the box in his hand.

Send a tent in the winter.

Mrs. Joe came up with this excuse.

Eleven Niang couldn't hold back and didn't laugh.

Without the doctor's diagnosis, Qiao Lianfang was afraid of making a mistake, so she didn't dare to say anything about pregnancy. But if you ask for a doctor, you have to go through yourself. The best way to do this is to go back to Chengguo's Mansion. It can not only confirm the diagnosis, but also let Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao know, and give her ideas. It's a win-win-win-

"The two mothers have worked hard." Eleven Niang smiled and served the tea, "Thank you for your concern on my behalf." ”

The two mothers of the Qiao family were stunned.

They didn't expect that Eleven Niang would serve tea to the guests without waiting for them to say a few words.

One of them hurriedly stood up and said, "Madam, our lady instructed us when we came. Let's stop by to say hello to Aunt Qiao. ”

"Oh!" Shi Niang's action of putting tea paused.

The other hurriedly emphasized: "Yes, madam, when our lady comes, let's take a look at Aunt Qiao—Aunt Qiao was a little uncomfortable yesterday, and our wife has been worrying." We'll deliver the tent, and Madame will let us stop by and have a look. Whether it's good or bad, it's good to reply, so that our wife has a bottom in her heart. ”

It's uncomfortable...... The people of the Qiao family knew that Qiao Lianfang was uncomfortable......

Looking at the two mothers who insisted on their opinions, Eleven Niang smiled slightly.

The excuse of sending something leads to pregnancy. Was this Mrs. Joe's idea? Or was it Qiao Lianfang's idea? Did Mrs. Qiao want to tell herself that Qiao Lianfang was protected by the Chengguo Mansion? Or is Qiao Lianfang worried that the fetus in her womb will not be able to give birth smoothly?

However, Eleven Niang faintly felt that this was what Mrs. Qiao meant.

Because the situation was only in Madame Joe's favor.

You must know that Qiao Lianfang took so many gifts back, but the Qiao family only returned the eight-color gift box. The Qiao family was unwilling to break the convention for Qiao Lianfang, so they could only make up for it with other things. The best way is to send something to Qiao Lianfang under the pretext of poking out her pregnancy. First, it calmed Qiao Lianfang's heart, and second, it confused the public, making people think that the Xu family gave the Qiao family a generous gift because of Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy.

No matter which one it is, Eleven Niang will be calm. Although she didn't dare to say that she was a good person, she still couldn't do it if she was asked to murder a child who had no ability to protect herself.

But the Qiao family's practice of treating others as fools and deceiving others made her unhappy.

I want to tell the pregnancy through the people of the Qiao family......

If he lets them succeed like this, how can he maintain his majesty as Mrs. Xu Lingyi.

Some things can be turned a blind eye, but some things should not be allowed to let people take a step beyond the thunder pool.

With the sound of gently touching the porcelain, the teacup in Shi Niang's hand fell on the coffee table on the side.

"You go back to Mrs. Joe." She said slowly, "Aunt Qiao was fine when she came to greet me early this morning, and I didn't hear that she was uncomfortable." Reassure Mrs. Joe. Since Aunt Qiao has entered the Xu family, she is a member of the Xu family. Although our Xu family is not rich and expensive, if we are sick, even if we are a little maid, we have to ask the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital to help take a look. Let Mrs. Joe not worry. With that, he got up and instructed Amber, "Send the two mothers out, don't let the two mothers get lost, and don't know the south, south, west, and north." Then he went into the inner chamber without looking back.

The two mothers stood there.

They didn't expect Eleven Niang's attitude to be so tough.

"Two mothers, please come with me." Amber was originally worried about Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy, but now when she saw that the people of the Qiao family were so domineering, she was even more angry, and she spoke very politely, "Our Xu family has big rules. Some places can only be walked by the lady and the lady, and some places can only be walked by the maid and the mother-in-law. lest you be laughed at for not knowing the rules and ruining the reputation of Cheng Guogong's Mansion. ”

The two mothers also have heads and faces in Qiao's family, and when Amber said this, their faces were red and white for a while, and they complained in their hearts about what Mrs. Qiao said in front of Mrs. "Mrs. Yongping Hou has a bad background, she lacks confidence, and her actions all depend on the eyes of Mrs. Tai and Hou Ye, and there are no two nods, and they definitely dare not offend Cheng Guogong's Mansion" and the like, which allowed the two to poke out Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy, and by the way, they can also make friends with Aunt Qiao - now that Aunt Qiao is pregnant, if she gives birth to a son, she will have a firm foothold in Xu Mansion. If there is anything in the future, you can also blow the pillow wind through her...... Only then did they take out the silk yarn ink tent that was hidden at the bottom of the box and let them send it over. But I didn't expect to be driven out so mercilessly.

Don't run away!

Amber looked at it and felt a little relieved. smiled and went to Eleven Niang.

Eleven Niang had already turned back to the hall and was waiting for her. Seeing her come in, he pointed to the box left by the two mothers of the Qiao family: "Take it to Aunt Qiao." Then ask her how she is doing? If she says she's not feeling well, you can go and tell the housekeeper in the outer courtyard and ask her to help find a doctor to take a look. If she says she's all right......" she smiled, "we can't force her to get a doctor!" ”

Amber smiled and walked away.

Eleven Niang returned to the inner room to embroider "Gu Feng" - there are many messy things these days, and she only embroidered a dozen words. I hope Sister Hui won't be too disappointed when she sees it.

After a while, Amber folded back.

She smiled and stretched out her hand to Eleven Niang: "Madam, the right card!" ”

Eleven Niang also laughed when she saw it: "The old place, take it yourself." ”

"Hmm!" Amber walked briskly to the outer court.

The doctors in the hospital have to be on errands on weekdays and cannot be on call. When Imperial Physician Wu came, it was already early noon. Xu Lingyi happened to come back from the outer courtyard to change clothes.

I saw that there was only one mother-in-law who answered the door in the yard, and none of the maids and mothers were gone. Qi Dao: "What's the matter?" ”

The mother-in-law hurriedly said, "Aunt Qiao is a little uncomfortable. Madame helped my aunt hire a doctor. ”

Xu Lingyi frowned, nodded, and quickly stepped into the inner room.

Eleven Niang was embroidering on the flower shelf, and the noon sun shone in, outlining her figure into a warm golden yellow.

His brow furrowed unconsciously.

"What about Sister Zhen and Brother Jie?"

After the Lantern Festival, there are more days of the sun. Xu Lingyi wore a beautiful blue silk forging robe, rolled up her sleeves and prepared to clean her face and hands.

Eleven Niang heard that he was back, and it was time to go to Mrs. Tai's place for dinner. While collecting the needle and thread, he replied: "Brother Zhen stayed over there to play." ”

"Why isn't Aunt Qiao 'comfortable' again?" There was a hint of displeasure in his voice, "It's only been a few days." With that, he followed the little maid into the clean room.
