The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

The Meng family went out of the main house, without waiting for Zhao Xuan, and went to her own yard.

Zhao Xuan glanced at her angry appearance, hurried to catch up with her, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Seeing her rushing forward but ignoring her, Zhao Xuan grabbed her arm, forced Meng Shi to stop, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you losing your temper?"

Meng shoved Zhao Xuan away, and replied angrily, "Why do you ask questions knowingly?"

"You insist on me coming to pay her respects, because you want to stimulate me on purpose, don't you?"

"Why do you say that?" Zhao Xuan glanced left and right, lowered his voice, and said, "She is a wife, and you are a concubine. Although you are not in Yizhou now, you always lose your temper and refuse to go to pay your respects. What do you want me to do?" Do?"

"If there is trouble, it will always be you who suffer."

He slowed down his tone and said meaningfully: "Ayu, I am doing this for your own good."

"I don't need you to be good for me." Meng Shi broke free from Zhao Xuan, and replied sharply: "Don't use such words to coax me again in the future. If you were really good for me, you should have found a way to make me feel better in the first place." I have my own flesh and blood beside me, instead of letting me watch her heartbroken for giving birth to you one after another."

"She already has so many children, and I don't have any of my own flesh and blood. It's so unfair to me."

As she spoke, Meng's tears welled up and fell on her face drop by drop, and was blown away by the howling north wind, leaving only a cold patch.

Zhao Xuan sighed for a long time: "Why don't I want to have a child of the two of us, Ayu, you have to understand me, I can't help it."

Meng looked at Zhao Xuan with tears in her eyes, then wiped away her tears, left him, and went away resolutely.

Just as Zhao Xuan was about to raise his foot to chase after him, a young servant came over and said, "My lord, Mr. Biao Pei has arrived and is waiting for you in the front hall."

Hearing this, Zhao Xuan stopped the steps he was about to catch up with, so he told the maidservant of the Meng family who looked terrified at the side: "Go back and take care of the side concubine. If there is anything wrong with her, you have nothing to do with it, understand. ?"

The little girl nodded repeatedly, and hurriedly said: "The imperial concubine has already ordered, and the slaves dare not be careless, please rest assured, the imperial concubine."

Zhao Xuan nodded, then growled again: "What are you still doing in a daze? You haven't caught up with the side concubine, just look at it."

The little girl was killed, and she nodded her head as if pounding garlic, and said, "I'll go now, slave." Then she turned around and chased after Meng Shi.

Zhao Xuan sighed helplessly, turned back, and strode towards the main hall.

After Mrs. Meng left, Mrs. Xie caressed her lower abdomen with one hand, and poked Pingyang with the other, and said: "Look at how embarrassed she was when she saw me just now, I'm afraid my baby will irritate her very much again."

No matter how capable Xie is, she is still a woman.

When facing a rival in love, it is inevitable that you will show your petty side.

Ping Yang poured a bowl of hot jujube tea for her, and said angrily: "You have been pregnant one after another, can't it be just to embarrass her?"

Mrs. Xie snorted coldly: "She deserves it too!"

As she said that, she pointed to her lower abdomen: "It's so hard for a woman to conceive and give birth. A little person like her, who is not worth mentioning, deserves to make me work so hard?"

She took a sip of jujube tea from Pingyang, and said: "To be honest, I have five children now, and I didn't plan to have any more, but the child-proofing medicine is also harmful to the body. I'm hesitating." She stroked her lower abdomen: "No, before I can make up my mind, this baby is here again."

"It's God's will."

Pingyang covered his mouth with a smile, and joked: "Your land is really fertile and productive."

Mrs. Xie smiled and replied: "It's strange to say that I always hoped to have a boy every time I was pregnant. It's not that I look down on women, but I think that the more sons I have, the more stable my position will be, and women have to be restrained too much. If there are too many, it’s not as comfortable as a man.” As she spoke, she showed a loving expression on her face, and stroked her lower abdomen: “But for this baby, I don’t think about it anymore. The baby's feeling is also different from the previous ones."

Ping Yang replied: "This time when you come to Beijing, I see that your relationship with elder brother is not the same as before. This should be the reason for the change in your attitude towards this child."

After listening to Pingyang's words, Mrs. Xie was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Your elder brother and I are married, what can change."

After careful consideration, Mrs. Xie muttered to herself: "Don't talk about it, it seems that your elder brother has really changed since he returned to Beijing."

"Especially after he accompanied me back to the Hou's mansion that time, it was a little different."

As she said that, she raised her eyes and looked at Pingyang: "You said that I made a fool of myself in the Hou's mansion that day, did it frighten your elder brother?"

Ping Yang smiled and said: "All these years, it's not that my elder brother has never seen how powerful you are, how could he be overwhelmed this time."

"You're right."

Xie shi pondered for a while.

My husband's treatment of me has indeed changed a lot. How can it be all right?
Mrs. Xie couldn't think of a reason for a while, so she simply put aside the trouble, and said to Pingyang: "Today your elder brother invited Pei's cousin to come to the house, let's have a reunion dinner together tonight, my sister-in-law is on duty today Is it? If he is at home, I will order someone to invite him over as well."

Ping Yang replied: "You are pregnant with your precious son again. It is indeed worth celebrating. My husband has gone to the palace to take up duty today. I don't know when he will return. It's better not to call him."

Mrs. Xie agreed: "Yesterday, the kitchen bought a lot of beef, sheep, venison, etc. I will ask them to make a pot later. It is the best way to warm up in this weather."

Speaking of this, Ping Yang said: "It's okay to eat pot, but don't make mutton. Cousin Pei doesn't eat mutton."

After being reminded by Pingyang, Xie suddenly said: "Oh, cousin Pei has been away from the palace for a long time, but I forgot about it."

"It's thanks to you remembering." As she spoke, she told the little girl beside her, "Go to the kitchen now and ask them to make a pot and cut up pork, venison, fish and shrimp instead of beef and sheep. , prepare more, and get some of our Yizhou flavored side dishes."

The little girl took the order and left, Xie turned to Pingyang and said: "I brought the two cooks here from Yizhou, and you have been away from home for more than half a year. Later, I will try our Yizhou's food. vegetable."

Pingyang smiled and said: "I'm really greedy for this. You and your mother brought me cooks when I got married. I put them in the small kitchen in my yard, but my husband really doesn't like Yizhou dishes. It turns out that I don't like Yizhou dishes. Even if I make two servings, I find it bothersome as time goes by, so I order them to cook only Beijing dishes. Now those cooks are unfamiliar with their hometown skills, even if I get greedy and ask them to cook once in a while, it will not be the same as before. .”

"Although Beijing cuisine is good, I still prefer the cuisine of our hometown. Even Cousin Pei, who was born and raised in the capital, said that the cuisine in Beijing is not as popular as our Yizhou cuisine."
