rich concubine

Chapter 2567 That Time
The night was lonely, and the couple didn't talk endlessly like ordinary couples. The child was lying beside them, and the man sleeping outside was snoring like thunder.

Fang Fang opened her eyes wide and breathed softly in the darkness.

She thought about the first half of her life, and she had never been happy. Her mother was a well-known midwife in the local area. She was a low-class person who could not be separated from every household. In the eyes of the nobles, low-class things could not be put on the table. .

Her mother told her that although her identity was unpleasant to reveal, what she was doing was a matter of life and death.

So what if the people next to her look down upon her?When the day came to marry a wife and have children, everyone who looked at her would nod, bow, and say thank you.

Having delivered so many children, the folks in the village were very fond of her mother.

Even the nobleman’s child and grandson were delivered by his mother.

Until that day, a young business couple from the capital came to the town. The man was covered in sweat and almost crawled to the door of his house.

He was crying and shouting. It was so unseemly for such a strong man to cry so hard that he burst into tears.

Fang Fang only remembered that her mother followed him out in a hurry and did not come back until the next night. When she came back, her mother's legs were swaying and her face was pale.

She handed her a cup of hot water, and her mother took it in her hand and drank it all. Then she shook violently, looked at herself and said, "What a sin! Neither the mother nor the son were saved."

Fang Fang was stunned for a moment, and then showed a sad expression.

As far as she knew growing up, this had never happened before for her mother to deliver a baby. A woman had a narrow chance of death during childbirth, but her mother was a master of midwifery. How could this happen?
No matter what, it was the result of one death and two lives. Fang Fang only remembered those days when her mother was at home without thinking about tea or food, and she could not help but sigh after taking another sip of water.

My mother is a kind-hearted person. She watched the woman die with her own eyes, and the child she gave birth to was so suffocated that she turned purple all over. That incident had a profound impact on her. She was so tired that she couldn't sleep for several nights. Even when I fall asleep, I will wake up from nightmares.

Later, after the man chose a cemetery for his wife, he held a small banquet, and both she and her mother went.

The turning point and shadow of my life started from that time.

My mother is kind-hearted, and everyone she delivers babies is grateful to her, so she has a strong sense of responsibility.

She remembered that day, her mother said to herself that the man was a good man who loved his wife, but his wife died because she could not afford to lose that blessing.

Why did she die in childbirth?It's because when she was pregnant with that child, everyone who came into contact with them said with certainty that there must be a son in her belly.

One person said that they just smiled, but if more people said it, they would inevitably look forward to the life in their stomachs.

Especially the man, how happy he was to know that the baby would be a son.

He searched for supplements everywhere and chose the best ones to buy for his wife.

As time went by, even the old people who knew me well were advising me that supplements should be taken once or twice, but they should not be eaten as food. Overdosing them would not be good for the body.

How could a man who knew he was going to have a precious son be willing to listen to such words?He only sees his wife being thin, and wants her to be fat and give him a good son. This is his business.

Those words of advice were not heard in his heart.Later, when the mother went to deliver the baby, the woman's belly was as big as a basin, and she looked like she was pregnant with twins.

How could the baby survive so long in the belly?After suffering this loss, after giving birth for a day and a night, blood flowed all over the bed, and the child was forced to hold it in. However, it was precisely because he held it in for too long that he died, and the woman even died of hemorrhage.

About two months later, when Fang Fang thought that this matter was completely over, her mother suddenly came to her and said, "I have found a good marriage for you. You must listen to mother."

"You go ahead."

For some reason, looking at the way her mother looked at her, she intuitively knew what her mother was about to say, and she felt a chill down her back.

"Have you met Boss Fan, right? Oh, that's really different from when he first came to us. His ancestral home is in the capital! People from the capital, even those who herd cattle and farm, are much better than us. "

Fang Fang frowned: "Of course I know him, besides, you just delivered his wife's baby two months ago."

This sentence made the atmosphere slightly cold, but her mother quickly recovered and said: "It's been so long, no wonder he is looking for someone now."

"It's only been two months, why has it been so long? His wife just passed away, and he is eager to marry again. Mom, you must be kidding me."

The mother rolled her eyes at herself: "You kid, who would joke with you about this kind of thing? It's true. People's situations are different. Didn't I just tell you that his business is getting better and better now? Well, but he only has one daughter in his family, so he is naturally eager to marry another and have a son, but he doesn’t think about the children. He is a man who is too busy with the front and can’t care about the back. He wants to marry someone who knows how to live at home. , the family is happy, and the man can relax when working outside."

Fang Fang: "Since you said so, that's it, but what does this have to do with me?"

"What you kid is saying is so funny. If it has nothing to do with you, why should I tell you this? Come on, I won't play riddles with you either. This is the man my mother likes. He is smart, capable and rich. You marry him. Although it is a bit aggrieved to be someone's stepmother, my son, he is just a girl. If you can marry a man in one fell swoop, won't your position in the family be stable? "

Fang Fang was shocked. She stood up with a cold look on her face.

"What are you talking about? I will never agree to it. Even if I want to marry, I also want to marry someone I like. How can I marry someone so unclearly?"

"How can this be called unclear? Now that he has a big business, he can make decisions for himself when he is away from home. People like ours don't need to be so poor and sophisticated. You listen to me and marry him to be the head of the household. Wait. In the future, he will take you back to the capital after he finishes the business here. A good girl like you cannot spend your whole life in this small place with our old couple."

Fang Fang knew her mother very well. After listening for a while, she suppressed her anger and said, "Except for his identity and his current business, apart from these two things, does mother have other thoughts?"

When I first asked, my mother refused to admit it, but after a few more questions, my mother's face turned red and she began to tell the truth.

"Mom has selfish motives. If she hadn't delivered the baby well, he wouldn't have lost his wife and child overnight. This matter has always been difficult for me. I didn't say it before because I was afraid that you would think it was a business deal. Business, but my son, let’s not talk about this. Just look at his appearance and ability. Marrying such a person is not a loss."
