Chapter 3 Pregnancy

In Mrs. Shen's Rongshou Hall, the lights are bright.

The little maid tiptoed down the tea set used by Master Wen of the Gulan County Ya and quietly retreated.

Sending Master Wen and a few servants back, the eldest lord looked at the second master and the old lady.

The second old man's face was pale and gray, and he looked like he had just been wheeled by eighteen big men.

The old lady's eyes were lowered, half of her face was hidden in the shadow of the lamp, vague, she couldn't see any emotion, only the thumb of the rosary seemed to be much faster than before, and the clanging sound of the pearls and jade colliding was clearly audible in the silence, but it was a little chaotic in the ears of the old man.

The eldest man's lips moved and moved, and he wanted to speak several times and stopped.

The air was oppressive, as if it were a cloud of thunder and lightning.

The little maid came in and said, "The big lady is here." ”

"The third grandmother will have a blessing if she doesn't die, and the second sister will also have tea by her side this time." With a warm and affectionate laughter, the eldest lady walked in like the wind, "This is also the blessing of the second sister......" The laughter stopped abruptly, and her eyes swept over everyone in surprise.

"What's going on here?"

Why are they all lifeless?

It's like a mother who just died.

Well, the second wife did just die of her own son.

"Madame, please be seated." Seeing that everyone was silent, the old lady's eldest maid Zimei hurriedly stepped forward to help the eldest lady sit down, and took advantage of the situation to lower her voice and said in her ear, "The third grandmother who just entered the door is happy." ”

"What?" As soon as her buttocks touched the chair, the eldest lady stood up suddenly, "The third grandmother is happy!" The voice trembled slightly, "Although it is not as beautiful as the scholarly lady, I heard that this eldest lady Fang has been familiar with poetry and books since she was a child, she is virtuous and elegant, and she is also a well-known jasper, she ...... How could she do such a thing?! There was an undisguised disappointment in his tone of shock and shock.

Jasper?

The old lady flashed in front of the reckless woman in front of the mourning hall, how vulgar and vulgar she was, how could she have the appearance of her daughter's home?

She snorted coldly and was speechless.

The second wife coughed, and her originally haggard face turned even paler.

The smile in her eyes flashed, and when she looked up again, the eldest lady was already awe-inspiring, "Doctor...... Is there a mistake? ”

"I'm afraid that Dr. Wang will make a mistake, so the eldest master invited Dr. Ma again......" Zimei took the tea served by the little maid and handed it forward.

Dr. Ma is a well-known doctor.

That is to say, tonight, the third grandmother who has just been resurrected is dead!

The eldest lady's hand taking the tea trembled slightly, she took a deep breath, barely maintaining a calm tone, "I didn't ask her, whose child is it?" ”

******

Shen Huaiyu turned out to be the contemporary head of the Shen family!

No wonder this place is so magnificent, it turned out to be the courtyard of his lifetime, Lijing Pavilion.

Isn't that the justifiable young master of the Shen family?

This thought flashed, and Zhao Qing shuddered.

This identity is too dazzling!

If he really got some plague that was feared by the world like a flood beast, I believe that the Shen family would never be willing to hand himself over to the official, so as not to harm the pond fish, and even the entire Shen Mansion was isolated by the official, taking the opportunity to loot unscrupulously...... At this time, they were probably discussing what to do with themselves, right?

The so-called guilt.

At this time, if there are people in the Shen Mansion who are jealous of their identity as a young master, it is difficult to say that they will not toss the small things that are the size of sesame mung beans to death!

Not to mention this kind of major event that endangers the life and safety of the family.

What will the Shen family do with themselves?

Hugh back to Fang's house?

Secretly executed?

No, she must find out what the two doctors diagnosed?

Whom to inquire about?

His eyes fell on the scarf that was helping him change his clothes, and Zhao Qing suddenly found that today was her first day of marriage, even if the original owner of her body was here, she was as strange to Shen Mansion as herself, and she had no relatives.

This is not a meal or a change of clothes, understanding the basic situation of the Shen family, just carrying someone, such an obscure thing, it must be your own person!

What to do?

Zhao Qing had an unprecedented crisis in his heart.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You really don't remember anything? I was stunned by Zhao Qing's series of questions that three-year-old children knew, seeing that she really didn't even know her husband's name, who Shen Sanye of Zhentan West Province was, Bao Scarf forgot to be afraid, and looked at her with big eyes.

"My name is Xue Ying?" Zhao Qing replied non-sensitively.

"Your surname is Fang, your name is Fang Xueying......" Bao Scarf nodded, "It's the eldest lady of the Liuhe Fang family." ”

Liuhe Fang's house?

Zhao Qing's heart moved, and he blurted out, "Is it as famous as the Shen family?" "Those who can put a place name in front of their surname are generally local families.

has already alarmed the government, if her mother's family has enough strength, the Shen family will not dare to secretly execute her again!

After all, it is her own daughter, as long as the Fang family can come forward to take her back, no matter what disease she has, the Fang family will do their best to treat herself. With a lot of thoughts, Zhao Qing looked at the treasure towel intently.

The scarf almost choked on his own saliva.

How could the Fang family compare with the Shen family!

Farming for generations, the Fang family is just a big grain grower in Liuhe Town, but the Shen family is the richest man in Gulan Town, Gulan County Ling Yin is a frequent visitor to the Shen Mansion, and even the Tanxi Commander and the Zhongzhou Prefect are the kowtow brothers of the third master.

Think back then, when the Shen family's famous Pearl Pond was just completed, even the original Tanxi Provincial Political Envoy Yuan came to visit in person, and the entire Gulan Town was under martial law by officers and soldiers...... That style is comparable to the emperor, how can a small Fang family be compared!

Lowering his head slightly, Bao Scarf vaguely avoided Zhao Qing's direct gaze, "The Fang family is also very famous among the big grain growers in the Liuhe area. ”

Also famous?

This means that the financial power of the two families cannot be compared at all.

Zhao Qing's expression instantly darkened.

"How many brothers are there in the third master?"

"Six, the second master and the third master are from our second room, the second master died when he was two years old, and the other four masters are all from the big house."

Thinking of the appearance of the eldest master and the second master in front of the mourning hall, Zhao Qing asked again, "I see that the eldest master and the second master are still very young, why did they let the third master be the head of the family?" He lowered his voice, "After the third master, who will inherit the head of the family?" ”

The stakes are at stake, you must be clear!

"The old lady has two sons, the eldest master and the second master, the eldest master likes business, but his qualifications are mediocre, and he is not favored by the old lady. The second master is also dedicated to his work, except for reading every day, he doesn't care about the life of the world...... Because of the third master's extraordinary qualifications, the old lady designated him as the head of the family before his death. Taking off the layers of dark clothes, the treasure scarf bent down and rummaged in the cabinet for a long time, barely finding a set of wide moon-white clothes, "There are no women's clothes in this house, the third grandmother will take a look first." He stuck out his tongue again and explained, "The slave and maid came in secretly, and this kung fu went out to get your clothes, and once they are seen, I am afraid that they will not be able to enter again." ”

Zhao Qing didn't say anything, only quietly stretched out his hand.

The scarf neatly put the clothes on his body, buttoned them on one side, and whispered in a low voice:

"According to the rules of the ancestors, after the death of the third master, the position of the head of the family should be inherited by his descendants, before the old lady has already decided, the only grandson of the eldest lady to inherit the name of the third master, inherit the head of the family, just ......" The voice suddenly stopped, and the scarf turned to say, "The slave heard that the reason why the eldest lady didn't go to the mourning hall to see you tonight was because she was stumped by a group of clansmen who heard that you were resurrected and wanted to pass on your son to you." ”

It's just that, because he died before, even if the eldest wife's grandson succeeded to the name of the third master, he was also raised in her house, only the name was different, both horizontal and vertical surnamed Shen, if he could master such a large piece of family business, then he didn't want it.

But now that he is alive, the step-child will be raised in his own house, and he will be beaten and scolded by himself, how can the eldest wife be reluctant!

But if other children inherit the head of the family, the family will have nothing to do with the eldest wife......

In this house, the one who wants to die the most is the eldest wife!

As soon as he thought about it, Zhao Qing understood what Bao Scarf didn't dare to say.

Remembering what Bao Scarf said before, because the third master did not get married, the middle feed has always been presided over by the eldest wife, and Zhao Qing's face turned pale.

Wave after wave of bad news smashed down on his head, no matter how strong his psychology was, at this moment, Zhao Qing couldn't help but be silent.

You can hear pins falling in the house.

After changing his clothes, he helped Zhao Qing sit down on the three-screen mirror platform carved with vermilion lacquer and gold mahogany, and looked at the delicate face through the bronze mirror, and the scarf drooled with envy.

"The third grandmother is so beautiful!"

While helping her remove the glittering golden ornaments, the scarf muttered to herself, "No wonder the third master agreed." ”

"What?"

Zhao Qing didn't hear clearly.

"The matchmakers who proposed marriage to the third master at the beginning have all stepped on the threshold, and there are all official eunuchs and scholars, but no one has taken a fancy to the third master!" Bao Scarf smiled and said, "The marriage with you was privately agreed by the third master, and both parties exchanged tokens before coming back to tell the old lady, the old lady and the second lady were shocked and speechless, saying that they wanted to see you, and they were stopped by the third master." "I have already been engaged, and it is disrespectful for the elders to look at each other again," it can be seen how much the third master loves you......" Thinking that the two had been separated forever, the voice of the scarf stopped abruptly.

She cautiously peeked at Zhao Qing's expression from the mirror.

Did you say yes because of your beauty?

Looking at the cheeks that could be broken like mutton fat and white jade in the bronze mirror, Zhao Qing sighed faintly.

If she had a choice, she really hoped that this body would be ugly, Shen Huaiyu agreed to this family business before her death because of her family background.

If she had a family background that was comparable to the Shen family, she would never be so passive!

"Tonight, the old lady asked two doctors to check my pulse, but they didn't tell me the diagnosis, can you go to the maid next to the old lady to inquire?" The tone was light and a little careless, but Zhao Qing's little hands clutching the placket of his clothes were tightly tightened, and he looked intently at the little girl behind him who was bowing her head and pulling her hair through the bronze mirror.

The scarf's body trembled violently.

She subconsciously looked up.

"Slave maid...... The slave maid ......" her voice became lower and lower, "The slave and maid are only third-class maids, and they can't touch the people around the old lady at all. Thinking of something, he suddenly raised his head, "I want to inquire about the old lady's affairs, the third grandmother is the best to find Shui Zhi in our house, she is the granddaughter of the old lady's mother Fang Tian!" ”

"You go and call her quietly."

"Slave maid......" Bao Scarf's face turned red.

Shui Zhi is a first-class girl, which is what she can drive.

Feeling the embarrassment of the treasure scarf, Zhao Qing stretched out his hand and touched it into his arms, "You hold the ......" The moment the hand touched the placket stopped there, and the sound stopped abruptly.

As a bride of the underworld marriage, the 124 dowries are all papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and even the jewelry on her head is a fake and shoddy product with gold dust, and her whole body is clean and slippery, how can she have silver to dot it?

Facing Zhao Qing's embarrassed look, Bao Scarf's heart was suddenly clouded with a layer of haze.

She couldn't even take out a copper plate!

At the risk of being expelled from the mansion by the old lady, she escaped the surveillance of Tansy and secretly ran in to burn this cold temple, was her choice right or wrong?

There was a clash of footsteps in the corridor.

Hearing the footsteps, the little face of the scarf instantly turned pale.
