Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 424 Zhen Hua: It's just a belly

Beijing Prince's Mansion, Ning'an Hall.

After Zhen Hua recovered, she held her daughter and led Youshi, Li Wan and others to the palace to visit Concubine Beijing. The spacious hall was suddenly filled with jewels and jade.

Sitting on the soft couch on the high platform, Concubine Beijing looked at the delicate and pretty baby in her arms, with a smile on her fair face and bright eyes full of water under her willow-leaf brows. She felt her heart melt.

"Hey, Miao'er smiled at me, she smiled at me." The white fingertips lightly touched the baby's delicate little face, and the baby smiled. The baby was so cute and adorable that Concubine Beijing was very happy. The charming face seemed as lively as a girl.

Zhen Hua watched this scene with smiling eyes, her eyes turned slightly, and she savoured it: "This girl usually doesn't smile at her mother, but now she is being clever, which shows that the concubine is kind and likes her."

These words made Concubine Beijing's heart as sweet as if she had eaten honey. Her bright eyes looked at the cute and soft baby in her arms, and she became happier and happier the more she looked at it.

For a woman, having children is perfection, but she did not have such good fortune. Even Shui Rong, her adopted son, was only a half-grown child at that time and did not give her any deep feelings.

But now, facing Jia Miao, who is nominally her granddaughter and is also close to her, how can she not be happy?

Pursing her pink lips, Concubine Beijing lowered her eyes and looked at the soft and cute Jia Miao. Her bright eyes sparkled, and her voice was unconsciously soft as she said, "Little guy, sleep with me today, okay?"

"babble"

As soon as the voice fell, Jia Miao called out, as if in response. This scene made Concubine Beijing's jade face bloom, and she smiled and said, "Look, Miao'er agreed. She is really well-behaved."

For the two of them, the grandmother and granddaughter, it is a beautiful relationship running towards each other in both directions.

Zhen Hua stared at the smile on Concubine Beijing's jade-like cheeks. Her pair of crystal clear eyes under her willow-shaped eyebrows were as warm as water, as if emitting some kind of brilliance. She couldn't hide her love for Jia Miao and couldn't help feeling happy.

Not only did his daughter win the favor of his cousin, but she also captured the heart of the Dowager Concubine Beijing. It was truly killing two birds with one stone.

At this moment, Zhen Hua paid more attention to her daughter and even felt that having a daughter was not a bad thing.

After all, for her, having children was originally intended to win her cousin's favor. Now that her goal had been achieved, why should she be so stubborn?

Having said that, Zhen Hua still wants to give her cousin a son to continue the family line.

At this time, Youshi, who had been watching the show, looked at Jia Miao in the arms of Concubine Beijing. Her beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she stepped forward cautiously and said, "Concubine, the child is young and easily makes a fuss. I'm afraid it will disturb you."

Originally, Youshi didn't want to say much, but when she saw that Concubine Beijing was going to take Miao'er with her, she couldn't help but worry. After all, raising a child is not an easy task, and it can be very annoying when the child makes trouble. Youshi knows this very well.

Now Concubine Beijing thinks it's cute, but that's because she has never suffered any harm. If the baby really makes a fuss, you won't be able to sleep well that night. When she gets annoyed by the fuss, she will most likely become disgusted with it and leave it to the maid to serve.

If that's the case, it would be better to let her take it with her, so I'll feel more at ease.

Zhen Hua's heart paused, her eyelashes slightly raised, and she looked at Youshi with a hint of hidden fierceness in her eyes.

It seems that Youshi's words are for the sake of Concubine Beijing, but in fact she is just making trouble. She knows that Youshi likes Miao'er from the bottom of her heart, and when she was in the Duke's Mansion, it was Youshi who took care of her mostly.

However, nominally speaking, Youshi is Miao'er's grandmother, but in reality, Concubine Beijing is the real one. The grandmother should take care of her granddaughter, so why are you butting in at this time?
Li Gui is trying to smuggle Li Kui into a car, and this Youshi can't tell the difference between the big and small Wang?
The Beijing Concubine didn't care when she heard this and said, "It's okay."

Such a cute little baby, just let her make noise, there is no need to disturb her, she is so happy in her heart.

As she spoke, Concubine Beijing could not help but lean forward and gently touch the baby's delicate face. The unique milk fragrance of the baby lingered between her noses, which she thought smelled extremely good.

However, Jia Miao was not happy with the beauty's action. He started to cry. This made Concubine Beijing feel nervous. She tried to comfort him and murmured softly, "Oh, Miao, don't cry. Your crying makes my heart melt."

Seeing this, Youshi wanted to step forward to help, but Zhen Hua gave her a look that made Youshi's face froze and she retracted her steps.

Zhen Hua snorted secretly when she saw this, and glanced at Youshi with her bright eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows, as if giving a warning. She didn't see the grandparents and grandchildren being close, and she, as a mother, didn't step forward, so how could an outsider like you interfere?
At this time, she wanted to cultivate the relationship between Miao'er and Concubine Beijing. She wished that Jia Miao and Concubine Beijing would sleep together, and it would be best if they were the kind that she would not want to let go.

At this moment, Yuanchun, wearing a wide skirt, walked in with the support of Baoqin. Her snowy face was rounder than before. She stared at the baby in the arms of Concubine Beijing and said softly, "I heard a baby crying outside the door. This must be Rong'er's daughter!"

Jia Rong's daughter, in fact, is also her niece's great-granddaughter.

Zhen Hua looked at Yuanchun who was walking towards her. Her eyes fell on Yuanchun's bulging belly and she slightly focused. She felt sick and said secretly, "Bah, what Rong's? That's my cousin's."

Although Zhen Hua wanted to tell Yuanchun about this so that she would know who her cousin cared about, she was not stupid and could not talk nonsense about this.

Humph, let me let you be proud for a while. Whoever laughs last will be the winner.

Concubine Beijing looked up at Yuanchun, a strange color flashed in her beautiful eyes. While coaxing Jia Miao, she nodded and said, "Yes, she is Rong'er's daughter."

What she said about Rong was different from what Yuanchun said. To be honest, she felt a little sorry for Yuanchun. It was all because of that monkey. It was bad enough that he couldn't control the things down there, and even his nephew's wife... Well, his nephew's wife was just a small matter, and she had no right to criticize.

Pursing her pink lips, Concubine Beijing said softly, "Why are you here? You are pregnant, so you have to be careful."

The Dowager Concubine Beijing could not fake her love for Jia Miao, but she attached great importance to the baby in Yuanchun's belly. The Beijing Palace was counting on that baby to continue their lineage.

When Yuanchun saw that the Concubine Beijing spoke in a gentle voice, she understood in her heart that her mother-in-law had some opinions about her in the past, but after she became pregnant, those opinions disappeared and no harsh words were said anymore. The Concubine Beijing even lowered her attitude and let her do whatever she wanted.

It can be said that at this time, Yuanchun was in Prince Beijing’s Mansion, and she was the empress dowager.

But Yuanchun would not be complacent. She pursed her lips and said softly, "In reply to mother's words, the prince told me not to sit in the room for a long time and asked me to walk around occasionally. I heard that Hua'er and the others were here, so I came to see them."

Yuanchun was the mistress of the harem, so the arrival of Zhen Hua and the others had been reported to her long ago. Since she had nothing to do, she came to join in the fun.

Moreover, when Yuanchun looked at Zhen Hua with her starry eyes, an inexplicable meaning flashed in her eyes. As a woman, every time she met Zhen Hua, she could always sense a hint of hostility.

Of course, this is just a feeling and there is no evidence, but Yuanchun is very sure in her heart. She dares to assert that her nephew's wife is jealous or unwilling.

Yuanchun was used to seeing these things in the palace in her early years.

She was also one of the witnesses of the affair between Zhen Hua and Shui Rong, so she understood the reason. Logically speaking, facing Zhen Hua's provocation, not to mention the difference in status, even in terms of seniority, Yuanchun could easily crush Zhen Hua.

However, on the one hand, Zhen Hua was the granddaughter of the old empress dowager, so she couldn't look unkind. On the other hand, Concubine Beijing and Shui Rong were relatively kind to Zhen Hua, so she couldn't show hostility and appear ungenerous.

Therefore, Yuanchun generally turned a blind eye to it. As long as Zhen Hua didn't cause any trouble, she could be hostile to her. After all, she had a piece of meat to lose.

Zhen Hua's lips twitched slightly when she heard this, and she suddenly felt resentful. When she was pregnant, why didn't she see her cousin giving her such instructions?
Humph, it's just a bulging belly, like someone has been through it before. Whether or not the baby can be born is another matter. Even if it is born, it's a mess. My cousin's eldest son should be born by me.
That's right, during this period of time, she would pester her cousin to let her have another child.

Concubine Beijing knew what Zhen Hua was thinking. Facing Yuanchun's explanation, she nodded lightly without getting too entangled. She patiently coaxed Jia Miao, who was crying in her arms, with a little worry between her eyebrows, and said, "Miao, what's wrong? Why are you crying non-stop?"

It hasn't worked after coaxing her for so long, could it be that Miao'er doesn't like her?
Yuanchun's starry eyes moved slightly, and she reminded softly: "Mother, maybe the child is hungry!"

Since she got pregnant, she had deliberately asked experienced women for some childcare tips, so that she could help them in case of emergency. If a baby kept crying, it was probably because he was hungry, or it was because he needed to change his diaper.

At this time, Youshi stepped forward, with a hint of caution on her bright face, and said softly: "Teacher, Miao'er should be hungry now."

Miao'er had only eaten once when they set out from the Duke's Mansion. Now some time had passed. Calculating it, it was most likely that Miao'er was hungry.

Little kid, you get hungry quickly.

Zhen Hua tilted her head slightly, and her bright eyes glanced at Youshi secretly, as if questioning, why didn't she remind her if she had known this would happen? How could she, as a mother, deal with this?

When Youshi saw Zhen Hua's questioning look, she felt aggrieved. In fact, when the child was crying before, she wanted to remind the concubine, but before she could say anything, Zhen Hua stopped her with a look. What else could she do?

Alas, when she was in the Duke's Mansion, she was suppressed by Jia Zhen. However, after Jia Zhen passed away, she was suppressed by her daughter-in-law and dared not speak out. She was really born to be oppressed.

Oh. By the way, she was also suppressed by that young man. But the young man only suppressed her physically, while Zhen Hua suppressed her mentally. The two cannot be compared.

In fact, deep down in her heart, Yu Shi did not dislike the oppression of the young man, and even looked forward to it.
Concubine Beijing was stunned. She had never taken care of a child, so she was not very clear about this matter. Seeing that Yuanchun and Youshi had said so, she did not hesitate and said hurriedly, "Then let the wet nurse come over. Don't let my Miaoer starve."

"my home?"

Yuanchun was slightly startled, and stared at Concubine Beijing's concerned expression, with some doubts in her heart.

What's "my" Miao'er? Her last name is Jia. I guess my mother-in-law loves children too much, so she made a slip of the tongue!

Yuanchun explained herself and gently stroked her bulging belly with her bare hands, her brows curved. She knew in her heart that what was in her belly was the treasure of the entire palace.

After a moment, the wet nurse came in. After receiving instructions, she carefully took the child from Concubine Beijing and walked towards the inner room.

After all, even if the house is full of women, you can't feed them in public, it's not decent.

Concubine Beijing stared at Jia Miao who was carried away. She felt lost and felt that something was missing in her arms. Her beautiful eyes flickered and she said, "Yuanchun, Hua'er and the others will stay in the palace for a while. Tell someone to make arrangements. I'll go in and see the child."

Having said that, Concubine Beijing ignored everything else and went straight into the inner room. She was so happy about her baby that she couldn't let him go at all.

After lifting the curtain and entering the inner room, Concubine Beijing saw that Miao'er had stopped making noise, and she felt relieved. Miao'er was just hungry, not because she hated her or anything like that.

She moved closer and looked down at Miao'er's diligent appearance, which made Concubine Beijing blush slightly and she couldn't help but secretly spit in her heart.

After all, they are of the same origin and have the same virtue, just pick it in your mouth and eat it.

In the hall.

After Concubine Beijing left, Yuanchun stared at Zhen Hua, a smile appeared on her plump face, and she said softly: "Where does Huaer want to live? I'll have someone arrange it."

Yuanchun didn't think much about Zhen Hua's short stay in the palace, but she had to make arrangements according to her mother-in-law's instructions.

"Where to live? My aunt wants to live in the "Feng Yi Courtyard."

Zhen Hua only thought about this in her mind but didn't say it out loud. After all, "Feng Yi Ting" was the princess' main palace. How could she, an "outsider", have the qualifications to live there?

Pursing her pink lips, Zhen Hua said politely, "Where do Xin'er and the others live? I'll live next to them."

Even if she was not convinced by Yuanchun, she was, after all, a legitimate princess and the rightful mistress of the Prince of Beijing's Mansion, so she still had to maintain the superficial courtesy.

Yuanchun nodded slightly and said, "The sisters are in the courtyard in the northwest corner. I'll have someone clean up the adjacent courtyard."

The three of them were squeezed into one yard, and the news got out, saying that she was not generous enough and brought disgrace to the palace.

"Thank you, Princess."

She couldn't call her cousin or aunt, so she was called princess because of her status. Otherwise, do you think Zhen Hua would be polite?
Yuanchun looked at Zhen Hua intently, her starry eyes moved slightly, and then she said nothing, turned to look at Youshi, and said: "Brother Zhen's daughter-in-law, I will have someone take you to find my second sister and the others. Would you like to stay with them?"

Yu Shi's heart was moved when she heard this, and she responded, "Thank you, Princess."

It has been a while since she last saw her two younger sisters. This time, she followed Zhen Hua to Prince Beijing's Mansion to visit her two younger sisters, which was exactly what she wanted.

After dealing with Zhen Hua and Youshi, Yuanchun looked at the elegant Li Wan. A strange color flashed in her starry eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows. She said with a bit of mystery in her voice, "Sister-in-law, are you here to see Brother Lan?"

Yuanchun felt confused about her sister-in-law. She also knew that her sister-in-law only had Jia Lan in her mind now, and she must have accompanied her on this trip because of Jia Lan.

Li Wan's eyebrows moved slightly, and she whispered, "Where is Brother Lan now?"

Yuanchun smiled and said, "Brother Lang should be practicing horseback archery in the martial arts field in the garden. If you miss him, I will have someone take you there."

Jia Lan was her nephew, and Yuanchun hoped for the best for him. Jia Lan was also very motivated, and Yuanchun vaguely saw the shadow of her brother in Jia Lan. Therefore, Yuanchun was extremely concerned about him and had high expectations for him.

Li Wan's beautiful eyes moved slightly, and she remained silent for a while. A smile appeared on her beautiful face, and she said softly, "Since Brother Lan is practicing horse riding and archery, I won't disturb him. I will go find him after I finish my homework later."

Yuanchun's heart moved when she heard this. She knew that Li Wan must be extremely anxious at this moment, but she could still control herself, which made Yuanchun admire her.

The truth lies in the details. No wonder my sister-in-law was able to raise Lang'er so well.

Speaking of this, Yuanchun couldn't help but think of Baoyu. As a junior, it was not appropriate for her to speak ill of her elders, but her mother and grandmother doted on Baoyu too much, and they had made him lazy.

Well, to be honest, even though Yuanchun loves Baoyu in her heart, she has to admit that Baoyu is completely useless. Fortunately, there is still Lang Ge'er, so the Jia family is not without successors.

"Okay, I'll have someone take my sister-in-law to the yard where Brother Lang lives."

When mother and son are reunited after a long separation, they should be arranged together.

Zhen Hua's beautiful eyes turned slightly, and she took a step forward, took Li Wan's arm, and said, "There's no rush. I'll go with my aunt to take a look first."

Yuanchun raised her eyes to look at Zhen Hua, and was slightly startled. She nodded slightly, but did not refuse. However, she did not expect that Zhen Hua seemed to have a close relationship with Li Wan.

Yu Shi looked at the intimacy between Zhen Hua and Li Wan, her beautiful eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows moved slightly, her mind was in turmoil, and suddenly a bold guess came into her mind.

I still remember that when Zhen Hua first married into the Duke's Mansion, Zhen Hua was also so intimate, but in the end she was blinded and fell into Zhen Hua's trap step by step, and finally became
Could it be that Zhen Hua was planning to treat Li Wan like herself, as that man's toy?
Thinking of this, Youshi felt frightened. The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, Zhen Hua was not a good person. With her pride, how could she try to please a widow for no reason? She must have some ulterior motive.

Not to mention that this is all Youshi's speculation, in the spirit of not being concerned with the matter, Youshi will not get involved in it. (End of this chapter)
