Ji Man observed Wen Wan for a few days, she always lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to her eyes, even if someone deliberately made things difficult for her, smashed a cup and spilled water or something, she was like an ordinary slave maid, and she dealt with it without a temper.

When Mo Yuhou came to the Feiwan Pavilion, Wen Wan didn't say a word, lowered her hand to clean up the bed for them, and then stood quietly outside the door.

In this way, Ji Man and Mo Yuhou were a little embarrassed, Ning Yuxuan called her in and asked her softly: Are you still used to it?

The gentle voice replied calmly: Back to the Hou Ye, the slave and maid are all right.

What is lacking or what is missing, you can tell me or my wife.

Wen Wan finally glanced up at them, with a desolate smile in her eyes, but she nodded withholdingly: Okay.

Ning Yuxuan was probably distressed by her eyes, and looked at Ji Man with a sigh: "Sang Yu, isn't the side hall of Alfalfa still empty? Let Wan'er live, you don't have to treat her badly."

Ji Man nodded: I have asked the licorice wick to move things in for her, but Wan'er doesn't seem to like it, and she likes to sleep in the firewood room.

Wen Wan seems to be harsh on herself no matter what, she doesn't want Ji Man to give her new clothes and jewelry, and she doesn't want her to eat better meals, but she likes to live in a firewood house, eat the food that people eat, and always have only a silver hairpin on her head.

It really looks like she's abused her.

Mo Yuhou looked at Wen Wan and said: If you can live a better life, don't be embarrassed by yourself.

Wen Wan raised the corners of her mouth and did not speak.

Ji Man didn't have time to play abusive games with her, because the pregnancy reaction that she had never had now came to visit her, and she had to endure it very hard every day so that she wouldn't be discovered by Mo Yuhou and the old lady.

Ji Man gave all the meals sent from the kitchen, licorice and wicks, and then asked them to secretly go out of the house every day to bring back the meals cooked outside, and the spices in the house were also checked every day. It's just that after Alfalfa was made a concubine, there was no movement around her, and Qian Lianxue was still the same as before, staying at home and recuperating quietly.

Ji Man felt uneasy, this belly was hidden like this, and sooner or later it would be accidentally exposed, rather than being passive at that time, she might as well think of a way now.

The old lady happened to enter the palace to see Nie Guifei, her belly was also five months old, thinking that her cousin or cousin was only a few months older than her own child, Ji Man was still a little awkward, but now this child, only Nie Guifei and the old lady have the ability to keep it,.

So when he went into the palace, Ji Man told Nie Guifei about the successive child miscarriages in the Hou Mansion, Nie Guifei frowned and said: How can your courtyard be more chaotic than in this harem?

The old lady sighed and said: It's also that I'm too lazy to care about these girls now, I don't feel sorry for anyone's heirs, I just hope that the mulberry girl can give her a pregnancy.

Ji Man blinked, looked at Nie Guifei, and then at the old lady, and asked: Auntie, old lady, do you think that if Sang Yu has a child, can she survive?

The old lady said with a serious face: The eldest son and sister-in-law of the Hou Mansion can flow away like those immodest children?

There are always strange hands in the yard that may reach out to me one day. Ji Man smiled bitterly: I'd rather not have children.

Nie Guifei sat up slightly straight, took her hand and said: Sang Yu, you have to believe your mother-in-law, if you are really pregnant, she will definitely save it for you.

Ji Man looked at the old lady, the old lady sat very dignified, and said with a smile on her face: When I was young, I fought with those girls for more than ten years, and in the end, none of them remained, only I left Yuxuan. If you want to protect your little girl, it's naturally not difficult.

At that time, the Marquis of Zhennan also had a group of wives and concubines, and his children and grandchildren were full. But by the time he died in battle, only the old lady and Ning Yuxuan were left in the backyard. Ji Man was still wondering at first, the ancients had a lot of brothers and sisters, why Ning Yuxuan only had cousins.

Here's why.

Ji Man couldn't help but glance at the old lady more, and now she finally reacted to why the old lady liked to chant Buddha so much.

Is it overstepping something?

After thinking for a while, Ji Man pursed his lips and said: Recently, Sang Yu discovered something, I don't know if the old lady and aunt will feel sad if they say it.

Nie Guifei said: Just say that it's all a family.

Ji Man pursed his lips, brewed his emotions for a while, wiped the chili oil on the tip of the handkerchief under his eyes, and finally sleeved his eyes: Sang Yu has been married to the Hou Mansion for so many years, and the reason why she has never been pregnant is because Hou Ye did it intentionally.

The two elders were shocked, and the old lady's face was a little ugly, in the end, her own son, or some protection. However, Ji Man took out a box of spices, and he didn't accuse, so he said gently: Master Hou was probably afraid that Sang Yu's pregnancy would make the prince feel uneasy, so for so many years, he has been letting Sang Yu use this spice with musk and Tibetan sleeve flowers.

When the maid beside Nie Guifei heard these two things, she hurriedly asked people to take out the spice box and throw it away: Niangniang, these two things will make pregnant people miscarry, don't get close.

The old lady looked at Ji Man for a long time with a calm look and said, "Did you just find this thing now?"

Ji Man nodded, tears rippling: The concubine was useless in the morning, but she was suddenly pregnant. I haven't been able to conceive for so many years, and I have given Sang Yu such a surprise in the past few months, Sang Yu felt strange, so he asked people to check the spice, but he didn't expect such a result.

The old lady originally blamed her a little, and even said this in front of the concubine. But as soon as they heard this second half of the sentence, the eyes of the two women widened: Are you pregnant?!

Ji Man covered his stomach and said pitifully: The doctor said that it has been almost three months, but Sang Yu didn't dare to let Master Hou know, and just wanted to give birth quietly.

The old lady was overjoyed, took Ji Man's hand and sighed several times, but she couldn't speak. Nie Guifei hurriedly asked the book to pass on her most trusted imperial doctor, and gave Ji Man a pulse, so that both mother and son were safe.

Now Nie Guifei is very happy, it is not in vain that she gave Sang Yu so many medicines during her southern tour, which are all very precious secret medicines, which can make her conceive smoothly, and it can be regarded as not in vain for her hard work.

Ji Man repeatedly instructed the imperial doctor not to say it, but the two women were so happy that the whole world knew that they were good-looking:. Also, after looking forward to it for so many years, can you finally look forward to one?

After being happy, the problem came, Ji Man had already said that Master Hou didn't really want her to have a child, and the old lady should think about how to deal with this matter.

Originally, if Ji Man secretly told the old lady about this in the Hou Mansion, the old lady would definitely say that she thought too much, how could the Hou Ye not want her own children, she would also be happy, she would immediately announce this matter to the whole mansion, and let Mo Yuhou take care of her more.

But now Ji Man came to Nie Guifei with the spice box, if the old lady was still on a whim, if something happened to the child, Nie Guifei would definitely think that Ning Yuxuan did it. In the end, it is her own nephew, if it is gone, the concubine will definitely anger Ning Yuxuan.

The old lady, as the balance bar in the middle, has to think seriously now, how to protect this child? She can guard against a yard of women, but she can't stop her own son.

When you go back, you will come and live in my courtyard for a while. The old lady looked at Ji Man and said: I will say that you have a Buddha relationship, and follow me to study Buddha for a while. When the child is three months old and stable, let's find a way.

Ji Man breathed a sigh of relief, it was a good thing to have a backer, and the old lady knew how to keep an eye on her son, so she was at ease.

Concubine Nie Guifei rewarded her with a lot of things, and Ji Man and the old lady came empty-handed and returned with a full load, a little crying and laughing.

However, the old lady thought about things seriously along the way, and when she returned to the Hou Mansion, she asked Ji Man to immediately pack up her things and go to the Buddhist hall with her to recite scriptures.

But today, as soon as Ji Man came back, he actually met Qian Lianxue, who had been ill for a long time, and she looked good, she was in the garden with a snack, and Mo Yuhou didn't say a word.

Ji Man originally wanted to pretend not to see it and go back to pack his things first, but was stopped by Mo Yuhou's voice Sang Yu.

Master Hou? Ji Man sighed in his heart, but he still had to turn around and look at him with a smile.

Xue'er is feeling better today, and she made some pastries, do you want to come and try it? Ning Yuxuan seems to be in a good mood.

Ji Man shook his head without hesitation: The concubine went back to move things, and the old lady was anxious for me to go to the main courtyard to accompany her to recite Buddhism.

Ning Yuxuan raised his eyebrows: You are so dignified, you haven't done anything bad, what kind of Buddha are you going to recite?

Ji Man smiled dryly: The old lady said that the concubine has a Buddha fate, and the concubine also thinks that the Buddha can cleanse people's hearts, and it is always good to follow the thoughts.

Mo Yuhou raised his eyebrows noncommittally: Then you don't plan to sleep tonight?

It is not suitable for sexual intercourse with her body, and recently Mo Yuhou came to her room to sleep peacefully, nothing else, so the difference between sleeping and not sleeping is really not very big.

Ji Man shook his head: Didn't I say it yesterday, let Hou Ye accompany Lianxue more, it's rare that she is in good shape today.

Qian Lianxue finally turned her head to look at her, and smiled a little softly: The concubine is grateful for her concern.

Ji Man nodded, and Ning Yuxuan didn't say anything more, waving her hand to let her go.

To avoid long nights and dreams, Ji Man moved directly to the side hall of the old lady's main courtyard, only brought a girl with licorice, and left Wen Wan and the wick in the courtyard to watch.

The old lady was a little unwell that night, and she slept early, and Mo Yuhou also went to Cedar Courtyard, so she should have rested early in the morning. Jiman let his guard down, washed up, and went to bed.

But in the middle of the night, the door was suddenly pushed open, and someone stumbled in and threw himself on her bed.

Ji Man was awakened and shouted, but the man immediately covered his mouth.
