Chapter 125: Picking Up People
A sudden fire made the hearts of the entire Shengjing City hang all night, but in the middle of the night, it was still blazing, and there was no weakening posture at all.
It wasn't until the sky saw the white belly of the fish that it suddenly rained heavily, and the Hidden Fire Army and Jin Wuwei worked hard to put out the fire, which subsided dangerously.
Li Taiwei stayed in the Showa room all night and didn't close her eyes, until Li Xiang called someone to pass the word at breakfast, saying that everything was fine in the palace, and only a few palace maids were burned.
Showa was worried about Li Sheng's safety, but he couldn't stand being pregnant, so he asked Mrs. Li to persuade him and slept all night half-asleep.
When she woke up, the sky was already bright, and Mama Jin listened to Li Sheng's words to Showa, and told her to sleep for a while to recuperate.
"When did Luan leave? Has she ever rested? ”
Showa obviously didn't sleep well, his eyes were a little blue, and he still didn't feel at ease when he listened to the sound of the rain outside the window.
Mama Jin tucked the corners of the quilt for her and said softly:
"The county lord kept watch all night, and went back to the room at dawn to rest, she is young, and it will be good to make up for it in a while...... You are a person with a body, don't worry about the others, and get a good night's sleep. ”
Showa settled down, and then fell asleep.
After a while, there was a faint sound of talking outside the door.
Mama Jin frowned, turned around and glanced at Showa, for fear of disturbing her, so she hurriedly walked to the outer room and opened the door, and made a silent gesture outside.
Lu Yi was talking to Mother Tian, and only then did he ask if Showa had gotten up, and then saw Mama Jin open the door, and hurriedly lowered her voice and asked:
"Madame, Madame hasn't gotten up yet?"
Mama Jin gently closed the door, pulled Lu Yi and walked two steps down the corridor before she said softly:
"Madame woke up once before, and she didn't sleep well last night, and she fell asleep soundly...... How? Isn't there an urgent matter for the old lady? ”
Since something happened to Hongzhu, Lu Yi took over the work of the maid in charge of Hua'an Hall, and when she heard Mama Jin's words, her eyes showed embarrassment:
"The lord and lady of the Yongping Bofu came just now, saying that they came to visit the old lady and the lady...... The old lady wants to ask her to come over and accompany ......"
Mama Jin raised her eyes and sneered:
"What are the Bai family doing here? I don't know what kind of peace of mind, his Bai family still has the face to visit our wife? ”
Lu Yi's face was not very good-looking, he looked around, and whispered to Mama Jin:
"The slave maid just listened to it, look at what Mrs. Bai meant, the uncle of the Bai family wants to take the fourth girl to live in Yongping Bofu for a while......"
Mama Jin thought for a moment and said:
"Madame is still pregnant, and she has just fallen asleep, so this is not a big deal...... Why don't you ask your aunt and grandmother to take a look? ”
Green leans on the tips of his eyebrows and pulls down:
"The eldest aunt and grandmother are not worried about the little prince, so they went to visit the palace early in the morning...... The slave maid originally wanted to invite the eldest young grandmother to go, but the second master was injured yesterday, and the eldest young grandmother was afraid that she would not be able to take care of it, so she was pregnant again......"
Mama Jin sighed when she heard this, and said helplessly:
"That'...... I'm going to call Madame......"
"Mama, slow down!"
Mother Tian hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold Mama Jin's arm and said:
"When I got up in the morning, the county lord ordered, if someone from the Bai family came today, let us not disturb the lady's rest, and order someone to inform her."
Mama Jin glanced at Lu Yi, and Mother Tian hesitated:
"The county lord? How did the county lord know that someone would come to Yongpingbo's Mansion today? ”
Tian's mother glanced at the two of them, and her eyes showed a little disdain:
"I'm afraid I don't know yet, when Dafu went to the concierge yesterday, I saw the four girls' people taking advantage of the chaos to deliver the letter to the Bai family......."
"Yikes!"
Green leaned over his mouth, his eyes showing surprise,
"It was the fourth girl who personally asked someone to ask for it?"
Mama Jin's face also sank, and she said angrily:
"The four girls are really confused! If this spreads, our Rui Wangfu will have a reputation as a mean second room......"
"Not to mention that she was fined and grounded for leaving the house without permission as a girl, which is the current reputation of Yongping Bofu...... Wouldn't it be a good thing if the four girls got involved? ”
Tian's mother was also unhappy in her heart, and nodded approvingly:
"Since the county lord has ordered, Mama doesn't have to tell Madame to get up...... Mrs. is pregnant with twins, but she doesn't show up, and his Bai family still dares to accuse our wife of not doing it? ”
As soon as Mama Jin heard that this was the reason, she asked Mother Tian and Lu Yi to go to Fangfei Garden in person, and be sure to take care of the county lord.
Mrs. Li was worried all night before she fell asleep in a daze, and then she heard the footsteps of Tian's mother.
She got up and rubbed her eyes, and said in an urn voice:
"Someone from the Bai family is here?"
Tian's mother responded yes and relayed what Fang Cai Luyi said.
"Pick up someone?"
Mrs. Li rubbed the knuckles of her eyes slightly, and her jade-like eyes showed two points of coldness:
"This fourth sister...... It's really not a safe life......"
"What is the county lord going to do?"
Mama Tian was a little worried, this fourth girl seemed to be a different person since the death of the Bai family.
Li Taiwei looked at Tian's mother and didn't say anything, she only warned Li Yao yesterday, she never thought that she wouldn't listen to it after all. Whatever she asks for this time, she will not be able to succeed today!
"Mama will make up for me, let's go and have a look first."
The sound of rain outside the house has decreased, and the rain dripping from the eaves is as clear and crystal clear as beads. The sycamore branches and leaves in the courtyard are washed freshly, and the green bamboo is also more and more pleasing to look at.
Mrs. Li looked up at the mansion soaked in the rain, and sighed slightly in her heart that she was fortunate to be blessed by God, otherwise yesterday's fire might have caused a lot of trouble!
Daifuku covered Mrs. Li with a cloak, and then opened the oil-paper umbrella, but when he arrived at Hua'an Hall, the upper of his shoes was still wet.
When Mrs. Li saw that it was Mrs. Li who came, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she calmed down in a moment, and asked Mrs. Li to come forward to greet the eldest master of the Bai family and Mrs. Bai.
"Why are you here? Is your mother unwell? ”
Mrs. Li was a little uneasy, and asked in front of the Bai family.
Mrs. Li bowed slightly:
"My mother kept a vigil all night yesterday and went to bed at dawn, and when I saw that her face was not very good, I couldn't bear to call her ......."
After that, he turned his face and glanced at Mrs. Bai, and changed his words:
"I don't think Madame Bai will be to blame......
Mrs. Bai Wen was suddenly named, stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said:
"That's nature! That's nature! Madame is still pregnant, how can she be alarmed at will? ”
"It's also the abruptness of our coming, last night there was no reason to walk in the palace, I'm afraid that the county lord and his wife have been frightened a lot......"
Wen Shi quickly glanced at his master, and said slowly with a smile:
"I saw that the house was busy, and now that Mrs. was getting heavier and heavier, I thought about taking Sister Yao to the house to live for a while......"
Mrs. Li turned her face slightly to look at Mrs. Li, and when she saw her complexion, she guessed that her grandmother had not yet responded.
"Unfortunately, my second uncle only broke his foot yesterday and is now resting in the house...... My sister-in-law is pregnant again, I'm afraid I can't take care of it, I'm afraid that my fourth sister won't be able to leave the house for the time being......"
Wen was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help frowning and looking at Old Madam Li.
