Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 76 The Death of Miss Wei

Not long after the doctor entered the room, Lin Xiaoniang rushed over with a group of maidservants.

"Young Master Gu was born in the Marquis Mansion, so he must know etiquette very well. How could he do such a thing of forcing his way into someone else's house? What's more, this is the back house. If word got out, it would not only bring shame to the Sheng family, but also Mr. Gu, have you ever thought about affecting the reputation of the Gu family?" Lin Xiaoniang raised an army to ask.

Gu Tingye didn't think that much before in a hurry, but now that Lin Xiaoniang said this, he realized it.

It was really inappropriate for him, a foreigner, to break into the backyard of Tongpan's house. He quickly apologized and said, "I just heard your lady asking for help. I was in a hurry and forgot my etiquette. Please forgive me. I will leave now."

Just as Lin Xiaoniang was about to speak, a baby's cry came from the room, making her face darken.

When Gu Tingye heard the sound, a smile appeared on his face.

Not long after, the door was opened and the doctor came out.

"Doctor, how is my mother-in-law?" Minglan saw the doctor coming out and hurriedly greeted him.

"Miss Six, Wei Xiaoniang fell and affected the fetal position, and the fetus is a bit big. When I came, Wei Xiaoniang was already hopeless. Fortunately, the fetus was still alive. I stimulated her physical strength with silver needles and gave birth to the baby. But Wei Xiaoniang has already... oh... you go in and have a look." The doctor shook his head and said.

"Auntie!"

Minglan burst into tears when she heard this and stumbled into the house.

"Doctor, is it true that Wei Xiaoniang is hopeless?" Lin Xiaoniang stepped forward and asked.

"Sigh, the fetus is not right, there is no experienced stable woman, it has been delayed for too long, the old man tried his best."

The doctor shook his head and left with the medicine box.

Lin Xiaoniang looked sad when she heard this, but a hint of joy flashed deep in her eyes.

The reason why she dealt with Wei Xiaoniang was because Wei Xiaoniang was pregnant and worried that she would give birth to a son and be favored by Sheng Hong.

Miss Wei and Mrs. Wang are different. Although the legitimate son and daughter born to Mrs. Wang are liked by Sheng Hong, Mrs. Wang is not very good-looking and has a bad temper, so she is not popular with Sheng Hong.

And Miss Wei was originally bought by Mrs. Wang to deal with her. Not only is she beautiful, she also has an intellectual beauty. If she gives birth to another son, it will definitely affect her status.

Although the child is now born, Wei Xiaoniang is dead, and the threat to her no longer exists.

When Gu Tingye heard that Wei Xiaoniang would not survive, the joy he felt just now disappeared instantly.

"I'll take my leave first." Gu Tingye knew that it was not appropriate for him to stay here, so he bowed his hands and left the Sheng family.

……

"Auntie!"

Minglan stumbled to the bedside and looked at her mother crying.

When Wei Xiaoniang saw her daughter, there was a sparkle in her eyes. She stretched out her hand to wipe her daughter's tears, but in the end they dropped weakly.

Minglan quickly took her mother's hand and put it on her face.

"It's hard for you. How did you find the doctor?" Wei Xiaoniang asked.

"Auntie, I met the young man I played pot with last time outside, the Erlang of the Gu family. He was the one who took me to find the doctor on horseback." Minglan said while crying.

"Then you have to thank me properly." After Wei Xiaoniang finished speaking, she looked at the knee pads she had just embroidered yesterday on the table and said, "I've finished embroidering that knee pad and will give it to Young Master Gu later."

The kneepad was specially embroidered as a gift when she heard that Mr. Hualan was going to accompany her home.

Now that she had no time, she asked Minglan to take it as a thank you gift to thank Gu Tingye for his help.

"En." Ming Lan nodded repeatedly.

"I don't have anything left for you either. The Lady Li guards Niangziguan, so I leave it for you to think about."

"Okay, Ma'am."

Minglan's voice was hoarse from crying and her consciousness was blurred. She just responded mechanically when she heard the words.

Wei Xiaoniang rubbed her daughter's eyes with her thumbs, wiped away her tears, and said, "I told you not to stand out in everything before, but you always didn't listen. In the future, when I'm gone, you have to take good care of your brother and live well. In everything, stay alive. The biggest. Do you remember?"

"Auntie, I was wrong. I will listen to you from now on." Minglan cried.

"You must remember what I just said." Wei Xiaoniang urged weakly.

"Aniang, I remember it all, and I will remember it for the rest of my life." Ming Lan said with sobs.

"What did you call me?" Wei Xiaoniang said with a cold expression.

"Auntie, I can't bear to do it. I don't want to call you little bitch."

Wei Xiaoniang raised her hand and gave her a slap, but she was already so angry that she didn't have much strength at all.

But Minglan felt her mother's determination. In order not to make her mother angry, she cried, "Little mother."

Wei Xiaoniang looked at her daughter in relief, and stretched out her hand to touch her daughter's face for the last time, but when her hand was still a little away from her daughter, it fell down, lifeless.

"Little girl!" Minglan hugged her mother and cried.

Xiaodie, who was crying beside her, was holding a baby in her arms.

The baby who fell asleep after crying for a while after being born, seemed to feel something in her heart when Wei Xiaoniang died, and cried loudly.

When Sheng Hong got home and heard the news, Mrs. Wang hurried over, came outside the yard, saw Lin Xiaoniang, and asked, "What's the matter? Didn't you find Wen Po before? Didn't you say that you searched for several times?" What? Why couldn’t anyone be found when Wei Xiaoniang was giving birth? And let an outsider bring the doctor into the house?"

Lin Xiaoniang felt aggrieved when she heard the words: "The master asked me to be the housekeeper, but the servants in the family would not listen to me as a concubine. After the master and the eldest lady went out, the servants in the family ate wine and gambled. There are still a few days left for my little lady to give birth, and two of the stable wives went back on leave a few days ago, and the other two got drunk."

"The concubine had no choice but to arrange for two older ones to help deliver the baby. Who knew that the girl was worried, so she ran out of the dog hole by herself. I don't know how to get in touch with that Gu Erlang , Gu Erlang took the doctor, injured the concierge, and broke in."

"Are you still reasonable? You are the housekeeper, but you can't restrain the servants at home? Besides, there is no Wen Po, so don't you know how to send someone outside to invite her?" Naturally, Mrs. Wang would not let go of this opportunity to add insult to injury.

Lin Xiaoniang said with an aggrieved face: "What are you talking about, the eldest lady? The master and the eldest lady are not here, and I can only guard the door. How can I dare to let outsiders enter the house? Several old ladies who are married to the eldest lady will know how to do it." When I delivered the baby, I went to ask them for help. Not only did they not help, they also laughed at me. If they were willing to help, why would the situation be like this? "

"You didn't take good care of the house, and you blame me?" Mrs. Wang cursed.

Just when Sheng Hong was about to scold them, a heartbreaking cry came from the room. He didn't bother scolding the two of them, and quickly opened the door and walked in.

……

The next morning, Mrs. Sheng returned home after receiving the news.

As soon as she entered the home, Mrs. Sheng felt that the atmosphere in the home was very depressing.

When Mrs. Sheng returned to Shou'an Hall, she sent someone to call Sheng Hong over.

Not long after, Sheng Hong walked in with a tired look.
