Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 599: Stealing a dragon and turning into a phoenix (second update)
What made Qiu Yiran feel even more uncomfortable was that for such an important matter as Xu's birth, his mother went to the capital and was not in the house, but neither his father nor Qiu Yanran came to care.

When he arrived at the door of the production pavilion, there were only some stewards and maids standing outside.

He was about to ask Xu Yuanniang's maid Mingyue who was guarding the door, but Mingyue had already announced inside: "The Marquis is here."Immediately afterwards, I saw Mother Yang pushing two people who were tied up to come out. Both of them had tears streaming down their faces. One of them had half of his face red and swollen, and it was obvious that he had been slapped.

"What's going on?" Qiu Yiran's face changed immediately. The people who were kidnapped from the birth pavilion were obviously waiting for him to deal with them. There was only one possibility that these two people were harmful to Xu Yuanniang and the child.

Mother Yang took a bamboo basket from Baoyue, another maid who was following her, and handed it to Qiu Yiran. Inside was a sleeping baby with its eyes closed, wrapped in a large blue cotton cloth.

Qiu Yiran didn't need to speak, Yang's mother had already said angrily: "This is the baby girl they got from who knows where, and they are going to replace our young master."

"No, no," the woman with one side of her face red and swollen, who must have been the midwife invited today, quickly cried, "this is a relative of mine who just happened to come to me with this child. We don't want to change the child." We can't. Admit it, unless you die.

Mother Yang sneered. If Mr. Hou could believe this, she would have nothing to say.

Of course Qiu Yiran wouldn't believe it and said directly to Dacheng: "Send him to the Yamen."

"No, no," the midwife cried loudly, "Master Marquis, please spare my life...please spare my life!"

Qiu Yiran shouted impatiently: "Two options, one, honestly recruit who asked you to replace my son; two, go to the Yamen Prison for a while and think about it carefully before recruiting;"

"I didn't..." the midwife wanted to deny it again, but was frightened by the fierceness in Qiu Yiran's eyes, "I, my niece gave birth to three girls in a row, and I was worried that her husband's family was going to divorce her, so... I just thought Change the baby to a boy. But at the end of the day, I was scared and didn't prepare to actually change. Otherwise, if the Baoyue girl just said to get the ginseng tablets, I wouldn't keep her. By the time they come back, wouldn't the baby have been changed long ago? Did it fall?" In fact, Mrs. Xu was having difficulty in giving birth at that time, and she was about to faint and the baby had not yet appeared. She was worried about killing two people, so she did not dare to let Baoyue leave.

Qiu Yiran glanced at Baoyue and saw Baoyue nodded. Just as he was about to speak again, he saw the old Marquis arriving.

"What's going on?" Old Marquis asked in a deep voice, "Didn't you talk about having a fat grandson? It's such a happy event, what are you doing?"

The chief steward hurriedly stepped forward and repeated what the midwife had just said.

The old Marquis frowned and said, "Let's check to see if this girl is really her niece? And if she really gave birth to three girls but no boy."

The butler took the order and left.Qiu Yiran looked at the old Marquis disapprovingly: "Dad, I suspect they were instigated by others."

"How is it possible?" Mr. Qiu glanced at Yang's mother and others in disbelief, "Who hired this midwife?"

Mother Yang raised her eyebrows: "It was recommended by the madam's aunt." The madam's aunt's husband's family is in the horse business. The family moved to Luo City at the end of last year. At the beginning of the year, her daughter-in-law gave birth and she hired this midwife. It is said that she is a medical woman. , the women she helped deliver babies rarely died in childbirth.

Mr. Qiu Laohou snorted: "So what you are saying is that my daughter-in-law's maternal aunt instigated this midwife to exchange for her niece's son?"

"Of course not," Yang's mother said hurriedly, "Madam's aunt treats Madam as her own daughter."

"That's alright," Mr. Qiu Laohou spread his hands, "This midwife admitted it herself, and she didn't make a big mistake even if she stopped. On the big day, you have to be merciful and merciful. It’s a blessing for my eldest grandson.”

After saying that, Mr. Qiu turned to Qiu Yiran and said: "Look at my eldest grandson and come to my study. Your mother has sent a letter, which is a bit troublesome. As for these two people, just leave it to the housekeeper. If What you said is true, just spare them once."

Seeing his father's face, Qiu Yiran knew that what her mother said in the letter was indeed troublesome. She secretly thought that there might be some problem with the fifth prince, so she became anxious and nodded in response: "Yes, dad will go first. I'll follow you right away." They have arrived at the door of the birth pavilion, and they must take a look at their newly born eldest son first.

Baoyue was also smart and quickly turned around and went into the house to take out the young master. The little wrinkled red baby was wrapped in a bright red silk swaddling clothes. At first glance, it was smaller than the baby girl in the basket just now. After all, will be born.However, if there is no comparison, babies who are born for most of the day will really not be able to tell the difference without paying attention.Qiu Yiran couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that Xu Yuanniang was surrounded by capable and reliable people, otherwise his eldest son would have been replaced by a wild girl who didn't know where he came from.

The son was too young and too soft. Although he was happy in his heart, Qiu Yiran still didn't dare to reach out and hug him. He only looked at her with a smile and said to Yang's mother: "Take good care of the madam and the young master. I will go to the madam's room to see them later. In addition, , the servants in the house all add half a month of silver as a reward from the young master." Men are not allowed to enter a woman's maternity pavilion for fear of bad luck.

Mother Yang nodded in agreement and sighed secretly as she looked at Qiu Yiran's hurried away figure. She absolutely did not believe what the midwife said.The old lady Ji had already punished her before, so I'm afraid this was her way.However, since the midwife has been bribed, wouldn't it be easier to kill the fetus in the wife's belly during difficult labor, or even kill two people?Why do you want to play such a trick?Could it be that they wanted to hide the young master somewhere and raise him, and then use the baby girl to make things difficult for the madam?

Now that the old Marquis and the Marquis have both spoken and said they would bring good fortune to the young master, what else can they do but endure it.

Qiu Yiran, who entered the old marquis's study, just glanced at Ji's letter, and then her expression changed. Qiu Xiran saved Zhang Ling'er who fell into the water in public. Now the two families want to discuss marriage?But he was about to talk to his father about choosing Liu Meimei, the second daughter of Liu Yuan, Minister of Industry, for Qiu Xiran.

As he read the letter further, Qiu Yiran's face became more and more ugly, as if he was constipated.

Brother Yin Mingze shined brightly at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet and was highly praised by the emperor. Now he goes to Taixue every day to study with the prince and grandson, and he also needs to take the scientific examination?The emperor has ordered the Yin Mansion to be unsealed and returned to the Yin Zhiruo siblings. Are they going to move back to the capital?What does this mean, Your Majesty?Are you sure Yin Zhao is innocent?Was his divorce from Qiu Yiran a joke on the day they got married?
