Chapter 331: Coming to Seek Refuge Again
Knowing that Mu Jiaojiao was pregnant again, Cui Pu was suddenly full of energy and energy.
Mu Jiaojiao is pregnant this time, and the child in her belly is really well-behaved. If it weren't for the fact that the letter didn't come again every month, and she also took the pulse herself, she would almost have thought that the existence of this child was her delusion.
However, this made her much more comfortable. At least without the trouble of morning sickness, she can rest assured and bold to do what she wants.
It didn't take long for Mu Yiyi to have a seizure, and after a day and a night, he gave birth to a little Langjun.
Knowing that Aunt Jiu gave birth to a sister who was not a sister, the little lady's mouth was flattened, but she immediately became happy again: "Brother, tie!
Mu Jiaojiao silently supported her forehead.
And this Xiao Langjun and Wang Qilang are almost the same temper, so soft and so obedient, no matter how the little lady pokes him and pinches him, he doesn't cry. On the contrary, every time he saw the little lady jumping up and down to see him, he was so happy that he danced with joy. This masochistic virtue...... Mu Jiaojiao secretly didn't know how many sympathetic tears she had bowed for him.
Cui Pu was also very happy to learn that Wang Seventeen had a son: "Great, Wang Seventeen has a future! Moreover, it seems that our little lady guessed wrong! Speaking of which, this one in your belly is very likely to be a little lady!"
She didn't see anyone who liked the little lady like this. Mu Jiaojiao didn't bother to talk to him now, so she only coped with it twice. Anyway, whether it's a man or a woman, you'll know when you're born.
Hongdou and Xiao Si'er got married for a few months, and soon there was good news. Soon after, news also came from Chang'an - the princess of King Wei finally came out with good news!
The good news came one after another, which made Mu Jiaojiao dizzy.
"Is it a good time to have children? Why are all these people getting pregnant one by one?"
"It's all a group of people of the same age, and it's a good age to have children, if you don't spread the good news at this time, when will it be transmitted?" Cui Pu didn't care, "You wait, this is just the beginning, this kind of thing will be indispensable in the future, and slowly you will get used to it." ”
Also. In this era, it is important to have more children and more blessings, especially as a wife, the more children you have, the better. Look at now, isn't she pregnant with a second one in her belly?
Thinking like this, Mu Jiaojiao couldn't help but caress her lower abdomen, and a soft smile appeared on her face - she didn't plan to get married in her previous life. married Cui Pu in a daze in this life, but because of physical reasons, she never thought that she could still give birth. As a result, by now, the little lady is already so big, and she has another one in her belly. If nothing else, there should be a third or fourth in the future......
It turns out that it feels so happy to have children with the person you like. Now the lives of the two of them have been tightly entangled because of these two children, and they can't be separated in this life, right?
Mu Jiaojiao thought, and there was a soft smile in her eyes when she looked at Cui Pu.
Cui Pu saw it, and subconsciously gave her a light smile back.
Even if they don't say a word, the husband and wife have long been in touch. Just give each other a look, and everything is silent.
Mung Bean and a few people stood aside, and when they saw them like this, they couldn't help but feel a sense of happiness and sweetness in their hearts - there were two lovers of Langjun and Niangzi who were watching in front of them day by day, and they couldn't help but believe in love!
After Wang Seventeen's son was born, it was natural that washing three and putting the full moon wine were indispensable. It's just that he is shy, and he can't do a good job in this main book, and the only people he knows are from the county government. Therefore, the three banquets were unusually bland, and the full moon wine was not much better.
And until the child put the moon wine, Gong didn't show up! She only asked someone to send a letter, saying that she was unwell today and couldn't go out, so she wouldn't come.
This is clearly an expression of protest against Mu Yiyi's disobedience to her. It's just that this gesture of protest is too pediatric.
When Mu Yiyi saw the letter, she couldn't help crying several times, but it was Mu Yiyi who said something bad and calmed her down.
Not long after Xiao Langjun's full moon banquet, on this day, Mu Jiaojiao took the little lady to see Mu Jiaojiao, and the little lady didn't need to be led, so she went to play with the little milk baby by herself.
While the sisters were talking, Mung Bean walked in from outside: "Lady, there is a little lady at the gate of the county government, claiming to be the lady of the Cao family and your cousin, do you want to meet him?"
Mu Jiaojiao and Mu Jiaojiao were both startled for a moment.
"Is it the cousin of the Cao family?" asked Mu Haoyi hurriedly.
According to this statement, it should be her. Mu Jiaojiao said.
"But, she doesn't know us well, what is she doing here?"
"Who knows?" Mu Jiaojiao shook her head.
Mu Yiyi couldn't think of a reason. "Sister, why don't we go and take a look! Is it the cousin of the Cao family, we'll know after seeing it. ”
"Well, everyone is here, and it's always impossible to see her. Mu Jiaojiao could only nod.
The sisters handed over the child to the nurse to watch, and they both went out to meet the guests.
When she entered the main entrance, when she saw the little man who was gobbling up in the hall, Mu Jiaojiao almost couldn't believe her eyes - the little lady in front of her who was dirty and almost couldn't see her appearance was really Cao Shu, who was arrogant at the beginning?
was quickly stuffing pastries into her mouth, Cao Shu unexpectedly raised her eyes and saw them, and was stunned for a moment, almost choking on a mouth full of food. Only then did she realize how embarrassed her performance was, she quickly clapped her hands, straightened her hair and stood up: "Cousin, cousin." ”
When Mu Jiaojiao saw her like this, a trace of bad premonition appeared in her heart.
"My cousin came from afar, I see that you seem to be tired, so let's let someone fetch water to bathe and change your clothes first, and then we will talk when you are full!"
Cao Shu paused, and immediately knelt down in front of her: "Cousin, please save me!"
She knew it......
Mu Jiaojiao closed her eyes helplessly. "You'd better wait until you're cleaned up! Anyway, you're already here, and we're not going to kick you out." ”
Cao Shu collected her tears at this time, and obediently let the maid help her up.
Seeing that the person was taken down, Mu Jiaojiao couldn't help but rub her temples, and she had no choice but to let out a long breath.
Mu Yiyi also found out that something was wrong, so she asked in a low voice: "Sister, why do I think Thirteen Niang seems to have sneaked out?"
"It's not seeming, it's fundamental!" Mu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and said, "She didn't care about running this way, but now she came to me, and if she knows to the Cao family, she will still think that I tricked her to come! If the Cao family comes to me to theorize, it will be miserable!"
Mu Haoyi hurriedly lowered her head: "Sister I'm sorry." If I hadn't taken the initiative to come to you the year before last and begged you to take me in, she wouldn't have done the same, and she came here herself. ”
"You're not the same as her. You came openly, and you stayed in Yangzhou as a guest openly, and there was no place for your actions to exceed the rules. But what about her? Did you see her evasive look just now? Maybe there was any big news she hadn't told us!" Mu Jiaojiao let out a long sigh, "No, I have to let your brother-in-law know about this." Hurry up and prepare in advance, so as not to be attacked by others who seize the opportunity again!"
Cao Shu took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and had a full meal, and the whole person was a lot more energetic.
It's just that when she came to Mu Jiaojiao, her actions were still a little shrunken, and her eyes didn't dare to have any direct communication with Mu Jiaojiao.
"Now, what do you have to say? You're not an outsider, so you don't have to beat around the bush. Mu Jiaojiao said indifferently.
When Cao Shu heard this, her eyes immediately turned red again, and she quickly picked up a handkerchief to cover her mouth.
"Cousin, I know that I suddenly came to you to probably make trouble for you, but I really can't help it! If I hadn't escaped, I would definitely have been sent to Shouwang Mansion to be a concubine for Shouwang Changshi now!"
"Make a concubine for King Shou Changshi?" Mu Haoyi immediately exhaled, "You are also a lady in the Chang'an Ling Mansion, how can the Cao family allow you to be a concubine?"
"In recent years, there has been a turbulence in Chang'an City, and the struggles of various factions have emerged one after another. No matter how my grandfather judged, there were always people who were not satisfied. After a long time, his life is also walking on thin ice. In addition, now that he is old, he is about to die, and there are few people in my father's generation who are outstanding in learning. So my great-grandmother thought that it would be better to take advantage of the fact that my grandfather had not yet stepped down from the position of Chang'an Ling and seize the opportunity to climb the faction of King Shou. In this way, the Cao family will be able to continue to stand tall in Chang'an City!" Cao Shu cried.
"So, they chose you and planned to make you the ladder to climb the Shou King. Mu Jiaojiao understood.
Cao Shu's tears couldn't stop flowing, and even her body trembled uncontrollably.
"Cousin, I finally understand what you meant by what you said at the beginning! Although I am the wife of the Cao family, just because my aunt is a concubine, my grandmother has never really regarded me as her own granddaughter at all! At the beginning, she loved me, but it was only for the face of the Mu family's large amount of silver. Later, there was a man in the Mu family, especially my uncle who was made an official again, and the official position was higher than that of my grandfather, so she was not happy, and she actually called me and my aunt to serve her every day, and she insisted that we admit that we were born as members of the Cao family and died as ghosts of the Cao family, and we must listen to her call for the rest of our lives! She is clearly treating us as slaves of the Cao family!"
"She was jealous of your cousin, you married well, and later saw that her cousin was not badly married. And those sisters and sisters of the Cao family, the people they set are nothing more than that. But anyway, they are all the right people, and they are all wives. But why did she let me be a concubine without hesitation? What else did she say, anyway, my aunt is a concubine, and what is wrong with me, a daughter, also being a concubine? Anyway, for wives and concubines, aren't they all serving men? Listen to what this is all about!"
Hearing her say this, the faces of Mu Jiaojiao and Mu Yaoyao also became gloomy.
Calculating the age, Cao Shu is already seventeen years old. When the daughter's family reaches this age, even if she doesn't get married, the in-law's family should be decided. But the Cao family has only now decided to let her be a concubine, does that mean that they have never planned for her? Or is it because they saw that Cao Shu was born well, and they planned to sell her for a good price!
It is true that the family does not care about the daughter's marriage. However, a good official eunuch family let his daughter be a concubine, and this move fell behind.
And now they have enough reason to believe that the reason why Mrs. Cao did this is that she still has a little bit of a desire to belittle the Mu family. The old lady clearly thought, no matter how brilliant your family is now, the little lady who married into my family is a concubine, and the daughter she gave birth to only has the life of a concubine!
can take this opportunity to talk again to masturbate her poor self-esteem, and to be able to cling to the Shouwang family, she is naturally happy to do it.
By the way, this can also show loyalty to the Shouwang family who disagree with the Cui family - you see, this is the only connection between us and the Mu family. Now, we have given this connection to you. This little lady with a blood similar to Mu Jiaojiao is now at your disposal!
It's shameless!
"What about your grandfather, what about your father, didn't they object?" asked Mu Jiaojiao in a deep voice.
Of course, Grandfather and Daddy disagreed. But my great-grandmother's temper has become worse and worse in recent years, and she loses her temper when she disagrees with her, and she wants to die or live at every turn. Grandfather said that the lady of the Cao family would not be a concubine, and she went on a hunger strike for a whole day! Grandfather knelt in front of her bed all day, and finally relieved himself that everything was up to her, and she was finally willing to open her mouth to eat. Cao Shu choked up.
The word filial piety is really greater than heaven!
Mu Jiaojiao slowly closed her eyes.
"I see. Now that you live here, I won't let you be a concubine. ”
