Luo Yunshang ordered someone to search for a white jade Guanyin statue and give it to Concubine Ning, congratulated her on her many sons and longevity, and said a lot of bad things about Mao Leyan in front of her, claiming to deal with Mao Leyan. Concubine Ning knew in her heart that Mao Leyan was still her threat in the end, and she would be able to attract one more person if she could. So he proposed to the concubine that there are not many women in the house anyway, so there are no aunts and grandmothers, and Luo Yunshang will be his wife. The concubine is naturally gracious, and now seeing that Concubine Ning's belly is getting bigger and bigger day by day, the concubine's heart is also more anxious than others, after waiting for so many years, I thought that I would not have the opportunity to hold my grandson in this life, but now I have entered the countdown stage, and I am looking forward to it but restless.

On that day, Aunt Yu talked about Mao Leyan and said: "Eighteen shouldn't be called eighteen now, it's all Mrs., what should I call Mrs." ”

Concubine Ning smiled faintly and said, "Aunt Yu, now that she is eighteen years old and takes care of the affairs of the mansion, she has worked hard, so naturally she can no longer be called Aunt ***." It's just that she is too powerful now, I'm afraid that she will pass over the princess and Concubine Lin, and then be made a lady, what do princesses and concubines Lin think in their hearts? The mother can't ignore the princess's thoughts. ”

The concubine was a little embarrassed: "It's just that she is the head of the house, and if she is still the identity of the aunt, it is a little unjustifiable." ”

Concubine Ning smiled indifferently, "It's not right, she has been in charge for so long, since she didn't care before, she must not care about this issue now." ”

Aunt Yu said dissatisfiedly: "Then Luo Yunshang is a lady, how can she be eighteen or an aunt?" ”

Concubine Ning reminded: "Aunt Yu, Mrs. Yun was a side concubine before, and she was demoted to aunt because of her mistakes, but now she reflects on her mistakes and suddenly realizes that the concubine is kind-hearted, and it is not inappropriate to give her a chance to change her life." On the contrary, eighteen has always been an aunt, and the prince almost never goes to her side to spend the night, to say something unpleasant, I am afraid that I will have to go out of the house to beg to go, and now if I am a lady, outsiders will know, once she leaves the house in the future, people outside may have some gossip to spread it. ”

Aunt Yu was slightly stunned, "What gossip can you say?" And who said Eighteen would go? Did the prince tell you that he was going to divorce her? ”

Concubine Ning said calmly: "Aunt Yu, if the prince didn't mention it, how could I say it?" ”

The concubine was stunned for a moment, "Xian'er really said that she was going to take a break for eighteen?" ”

Concubine Ning's body was slightly raised, her hands were stroking back and forth on her abdomen, and her expression was thoughtful, "The prince mentioned it, but I don't know what the final plan is, but the prince said, we must always be mentally prepared for this, right?" In fact, King Qing just said in front of her, Mao Leyan didn't want to stay in the palace. But in Concubine Ning's opinion, Mao Leyan didn't know how much he wanted to stay in the palace, where was he willing to leave?

Aunt Yu saw through Concubine Ning's thoughts, and said coldly: "I'm afraid that someone can't see that Eighteen is capable and win the favor of the prince, so I will do everything possible to curb her from being a wife." ”

Concubine Ning's eyebrows twisted, and she suddenly covered her stomach and said excitedly: "Is Aunt Yu talking about me?" In Aunt Yu's heart, could it be that I am such a person? With that, she crouched down and groaned in pain.

The concubine was so frightened that her hands trembled, and she staggered forward to help Concubine Ning up in person, and the girl on the side had already helped Concubine Ning to sit down, and asked urgently: "Concubine Ning, how is it?" ”

Concubine Ning took a deep breath, her face was still that painful look, and then she took a long sigh of relief and looked at the concubine and said: "The mother concubine doesn't have to worry, it's just a moment of excitement, so that the fetus is frightened, but the mother concubine has to believe in Yan'er, Yan'er is not that kind of person, she has no intention of targeting Eighteen, if the mother thinks that Yan'er is selfish, then please make Eighteen Mrs., Yan'er will never object." ”

When the concubine heard that she was moved, her face turned pale with fright, and she immediately ordered someone to ask for a doctor, and then turned around and scolded Aunt Yu with a heavy face: "You are such a big person, why are you so disproportionate?" , is Yan'er that kind of person? Presumably, Eighteen may not want to be this lady, in that case, why should she be serious with Yan'er on this issue? ”

She turned around and comforted Concubine Ning: "You don't have to worry, it's a trivial matter whether you are a lady or not, you must not be excited, you don't care about yourself, you also have to take care of the child in your belly." ”

Concubine Ning's eyes turned red, and she said sadly: "Yan'er doesn't want to be said to be a selfish and jealous person, so please ask the mother concubine to be the eighteenth lady." ”

The concubine said lightly: "I said that I don't have to mention this matter again, don't speak," she looked at the maid next to her, and said hurriedly: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up and help your mother to lie down on the couch. ”

The maids hurriedly helped Concubine Ning to lie on the chaise couch under the window, and the doctor soon came, and was about to salute and say goodbye, when the concubine said: "Don't get that false text, hurry up and take a look at Concubine Ning." ”

The doctor immediately stepped forward to check Concubine Ning's pulse, and said with a smile: "Concubine, please rest assured, Concubine Ning's fetus is very strong." ”

"It's just that she has a stomachache just now, is it because of the fetal gas?" The concubine asked incredulously.

The doctor said: "It must be a moment of emotion, and it did not hurt the fetal gas, but just in case, the old man still prescribes two pairs of fetal pills for Concubine Ning to take, once in the morning and evening, and don't fry the decoction." ”

Only then did the concubine relax and order her to send Concubine Ning back to Shaojun Pavilion to rest. In order to make Concubine Ning happy, she ordered Aunt Yu to decoct the medicine for Concubine Ning in person and send it to Concubine Ning to take.

Aunt Yu was very aggrieved in her heart, the concubine had been very good to her over the years, where had she ever spoken so harshly to her? She remembered that the child in Concubine Ning's belly was the blood and bones of the palace, so she gritted her teeth and went to serve Concubine Ning.

Concubine Ning also had a grudge against Aunt Yu, because she liked Mao Leyan, she always heard her say that Mao Leyan was good in front of the concubine, and she was unwilling, but she couldn't interject at that time, but she was jealous in her heart. Now that the concubine ordered her to come over and serve her to drink medicine, where would she let go of the opportunity to humiliate Aunt Yu? Therefore, when Aunt Yu ordered someone to bring the medicine up, she leaned on the chaise longue and said lightly to the girl holding the medicine: "What a bold man, the concubine ordered Aunt Yu to serve me to drink the medicine, how dare you rob Aunt Yu of her kung fu?" After a while, the concubine will know, won't she punish Aunt Yu? ”

Aunt Yu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she was deliberately provocative. She silently took the medicine from the girl's hand, walked slowly to Concubine Ning, and said, "Niangniang, please drink the medicine." ”

Concubine Ning glanced up at her and said lightly: "The medicine is so hot, how can you drink it?" Put it on the table first, you go and get me some candied fruit, and drink the medicine in a while to relieve the bitterness of your mouth. ”

Aunt Yu glanced at her and said, "These things, Concubine Ning should find someone from Shaojun Pavilion to do them, I don't know where the candied fruit is." ”

Concubine Ning smiled and said coolly: "Aunt Yu has been serving the concubine, she is the old man in front of the concubine, but Aunt Yu should also know some measure, no matter how hard you work hard, you are also a subordinate, the concubine pities you and lets you be the person in front of her, Aunt Yu should be grateful, good life and service is, to be a subordinate in the palace, the most important thing is to take care of your mouth, say more things that should be said, and rot in the stomach if you don't say what you shouldn't say, don't make people annoyed and hateful." Your eyes should also be brighter, don't blindly slap in with those who are not in the climate, now that I am pregnant with the blood of the prince, after the child is born, who do you say will fall on the power of the house? Don't look at her proudness now, but it's just like fireworks, although it is bright and bright, but only a moment of brilliance. ”

Where did Aunt Jade suffer such humiliation? She is indeed just a subordinate, but over the years, even the prince has respected her, and everyone before and after has been called Aunt Yu, and the concubine has it on weekdays, basically giving her a copy, she is no longer a simple subordinate in the palace, and now Concubine Ning treats her like this, why doesn't she be wronged? What the partial-born people said is the truth, she is indeed just a subordinate, Concubine Ning is the master, how can love call her, can she not obey?

After teaching Aunt Yu a lesson, Concubine Ning felt happy in her heart, and casually found an excuse to send her away.

Aunt Yu walked out of Shaojun Pavilion and wiped a handful of tears aggrievedly, thinking in her heart that maybe she had forgotten her identity in the hearts of the concubine and the prince over the years. No matter how good people are to themselves, she is just a subordinate after all.

She sat in the pavilion next to the lotus pond and wiped her tears as she thought. Just when Mao Leyan came back from the account room, passing by here, he saw Aunt Yu sitting alone in the pavilion, so he walked up and said with a smile: "How can Aunt Yu be so interested in appreciating lotus flowers?" This year's lotus flowers are blooming very well, and Aunt Yu is really a person who pities flowers. ”

Aunt Yu hurriedly turned around to wipe away her tears, turned around and smiled reluctantly: "I just feel a little stuffy, just blow a cool breeze here." ”

Mao Leyan saw that her face was not good, and her eyes were red, so she knew that she had something unhappy, she sat next to Aunt Yu, took her hand and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

Aunt Yu said in a heavy nasal voice: "It's okay, the sand is blind." ”

Mao Leyan took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears on Aunt Yu's face, "You still want to hide it from me?" Seeing that your eyes are swollen, you must have been crying for a long time, what happened? Tell me about it. ”

Aunt Yu put her hand around her messy sideburns, rubbed her eyes again, squeezed out a smile, and pretended to be relaxed: "What can be the matter?" It's okay, don't talk nonsense, it's just that you're blinded by the sand. Where are you going? How tired is it? Didn't sleep well? At the end of the sentence, it becomes a concern.

Mao Leyan stretched out the account book in his hand and said: "Someone from the township reported this summer's harvest, so I went to the account room to calculate last month's account." ”

Aunt Yu said softly: "The sun is so poisonous, why do you want to go by yourself?" Wouldn't it be better to have the bookkeeper report to your garden? ”

"That's it, this account office is new, many things are not clear, I still have to give some guidance, he is also hard, so I will go."

Speaking of the account room, Aunt Yu felt a sense of loss in her heart, before the concubine asked her to go to him, she never went, I heard that he is now a lot more sensible, but in the end she hurt herself too deeply, she didn't dare to go out easily.

"If you are really unhappy in your heart, say it, don't hold it in your heart." Mao Leyan persuaded softly, "Stagnation hurts the liver, it's not good if you really want to hold back something." ”

When Aunt Yu heard her such a gentle voice, she thought of Concubine Ning's domineering, and her heart felt sour, and she raised her eyes to look at Mao Leyan, "You say, do I really not recognize my identity?" No matter how good the young lady is to me, no matter how much the prince respects me, I am just a subordinate in the end, why am I so unbalanced? ”

Mao Leyan was stunned, I don't know why she suddenly said such a thing, "The concubine is angry with you?" ”

Aunt Yu said angrily: "If Miss is angry with me, I won't be angry, and I won't take it to heart." ”
