Because the houses of the Duke's Mansion have been separated for a long time and do not have much contact with each other, Yu Zhu didn't do much homework on the other houses. The only thing she knew was a "joke" that was widely circulated in Beijing. 【26nbsp;】

Back then, because Mrs. Tai was very sick, the possibility of giving birth to a son was already very small, so the eldest son of the concubine, the elder, was very favored when he was young, and he was almost regarded as half of the son.In addition, his biological aunt Wen Shi was originally a girl hired from a scholarly family outside. She was quite knowledgeable and persuaded the old man to put her son by his side to raise him, and he taught him to be a little child prodigy with both civil and military skills... Such a scene It wasn't until Mrs. Tai miraculously became pregnant and gave birth to a son in peace.

After giving birth, Mrs. Tai became weaker and weaker. Because she knew the old man's absurdity, she begged her family to send a few powerful women to protect the inner courtyard, so that the old man could grow up safely... Old Aunt Wen couldn't intervene. When he started, he sent someone to capture the grandson of his first son, the enlightenment master, and forced the old master to teach the elders and children some orderly words. They didn't find out until they made a joke about letting the concubine brother walk in front of the guests.

But no matter how to correct it in the future, the old man still respects the old man very much. Knowing that the old man is gone, he came here on horseback regardless of the wind and cold, and now he is leading people to arrange funeral related matters in person.

Yu Zhu lowered her head and wiped away her tears, doing a very good job of being a filial nephew and daughter-in-law.It was only then that she figured out that one of the Grand Master's aunts just wrapped up some belongings and tried to escape by dressing up as a servant girl while she was in a hurry, but she called out to her personal servant girl, and now she was caught and locked up in the woodshed.

The old lady's face alternated between sadness and joy, and she changed several times before she shed tears, "Where's your mother-in-law?"

"...I went to Pudu Temple to fulfill my wish, and I have already sent people to deliver the letter. I guess the time will be here soon." Unlike Chanye Temple, which is lonely on the mountain and inaccessible, Pudu Temple is located in a densely populated and secret place in the capital, where incense is flourishing , it doesn't take long to come here.

Only now did the atmosphere become more relaxed, and the maid who changed into plain clothes came in with a small tea tray and offered fragrant tea.

Sitting behind the old lady, Cheng Haitang looked at Yuzhu calmly, and saw that the dark clouds were slanted, the jade tinsel was slanted, and the skin exposed on the neck was like snow lotus root, against which was a delicate and unpaintable white face If there is a faint brilliance flowing through the whole body, it is much more charming than when I first entered the door to meet relatives.The big maid beside her lowered her head and closed her eyes, standing solemnly, holding a stove and a cloak.

She couldn't help being envious and jealous, when will she not have to imitate the dead man's favorite demeanor everywhere, and live a reckless and noble life...

Just as he was talking, a little maid came to report that the Duke's wife had come.

Then, the sound of unhurried footsteps came from outside the door, and a fair woman wearing mourning came in after Mrs. Xie. Yu Zhu hurriedly stood up to greet Mrs. Xie, and after saluting Mrs. Xie, she turned to the woman behind: "Ming sister in law."

Ye Shi, Cheng Xunming's first wife, quickly returned the greeting: "Your brother and sister are welcome, you are still fit, please sit down quickly."

"Huh." The old lady snorted softly, thinking to feed the unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, leaving her serious mother-in-law indifferent, but flattering others.

Xie's expression was calm, and she raised her eyes to look upwards, but her eyes seemed to see through the old lady and saw the long past... Before Yu Zhu had time to see clearly, she had already put on a look of holding back her grief, Quickly stepped forward to support the old lady's arm, and persuaded in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, you have to mourn."

The big old lady's face was still wet from crying, and after hearing this, tears fell down again as if she didn't want money, and she cried, "Why is my life so hard..."

"Oh, the Duke also said several times that he would help Eldest Brother." Xie sighed, and said with great regret: "In the first month, I spent a lot of money to manage it, and even went to Mr. Chen's house several times... ..."

"Really...really?" The old lady was shocked, such a thing happened.

"Of course it's true, don't say too much, there are... grades." Mrs. Xie stretched out her hand and made a gesture of four, "It just so happened that the former Salt Transport Department Tong Zhizhang reported to Ding You, and the space was vacated. The Duke thought It's a pity that my eldest brother has been suffocating at the sixth grade for so many years, and his talent is wasted... After spending a lot of thought, it was finally done, who knows that the sky will not fulfill people's wishes..."

The old lady is really crying now, and the salt transportation department knows that even if she is a housewife, she knows that any shortage related to salt is a fat job. If it really happens, then there is no money to spend?Be a little smarter, and borrow the name of the Duke of the State, and your grandchildren will be able to eat and drink endlessly

As soon as she thought of this, the pain that had just subsided sprang up like crazy weeds, and it was so thick that she couldn't breathe, and she let out a low sigh from the depths of her throat, "...why is my life so miserable."

This time the tone is much more real than before.

Mrs. Xie patted the old sister-in-law's back with pity, and softly persuaded her: "...I'd better open it up, that poor girl Haitang hasn't seen her father for many years, father and daughter are also considered We're reunited, aren't we?"

Her crabapple, like a flower-boned flower, is a smart and beautiful precious daughter, the old lady, who felt as if she had been stung by a poisonous bee. She covered her face with a handkerchief and burst into tears. Mrs. Xie put her arms around her, Accompanied by low choking sobs.When the old lady's crying faded, she whispered a few words of comfort.

Yu Zhu was secretly startled, and shivered a little. These words are still persuasive.

The older lady cried more and more sadly, thinking about her own suffering since she was a child, and she had to worry about it inside and out after getting married. The man is still unreliable, but the little sixth-rank official puts on the airs of the Duke every day, and doesn't bother to socialize. ;When I am old, I still go into the flowers, messing around with those little goblins all day long... My son is not worried, either mediocre or dull, or romantic and absurd. Fans competing for actors... After all, the daughter she raised either crawled out of her stomach, or she wasn't smart enough to be well-behaved...

It's really unsatisfactory everywhere.

The old lady cried so much that she almost passed out, until she was exhausted, she groaned and leaned on Xie Shi's shoulder, her eyes were swollen and there was only a slit left.

Mrs. Xie ordered the servant girl to come in and help the old lady to lie down on the bed. She glanced at Cheng Haitang expressionlessly, and took a sip of tea from the teacup.

Cheng Haitang always had an inexplicable fear of Mrs. Xie, so she didn't dare to say a word, so she saluted and then went down to take care of the old lady.

A mother-in-law came to ask about the matter in a while, and Mrs. Ye was too busy, so she gave Xie a guilty look, and told the maid to take good care of her, and then she had to go down.

"Brother Ming, daughter-in-law, you're welcome. It's not a coincidence today. Let's go back first, and we'll come to formally pay respects tomorrow." Xie called to stop Ye, and sat up slowly, "Don't just be busy, maidservant Are they all dead people? It is serious to spend more time with your mother-in-law, and when you are old and sad, you are most likely to get sick."

The maid drew up the curtain, and the cold wind came in all at once, which was icy cold. "In such a cold day, it's not easy to recover from illness." Mrs. Xie walked out the door holding the maid's hand, and finally said: "They are all relatives of my own family, so you don't need to send them away. But it's no small matter for my aunt to run away with money. If she didn't have accomplices, how could her little aunt have such courage? I'm afraid it's not the first time that she stole money..."

Mrs. Ye listened respectfully, looking thoughtful.

On the carriage back home, Yuzhu dozed off on the specially-made extra-large bombshell dark-pattern pillow. Zaoyuan was afraid that she would catch a cold when she fell asleep, so he led her to talk.

"Ma'am, shall we come tomorrow?"

Yu Zhu yawned a little, and tried to cheer up: "No, the old lady will definitely not let me out." And the reason is ready-made - tire gas.

When he opened his mouth, half of the drowsiness disappeared, he simply sat up straight and asked Zaoyuan to tell some stories.

Zaoyuan opened his mouth and was about to speak, when suddenly he heard a rush of neighing from outside, and then the carriage stopped.

Hua Ruo and Zaoyuan looked at each other in blank dismay, why did the street stop?It's just that it's inconvenient to poke your head to see, and I'm very anxious, but fortunately, I started walking again in a while.

This time the speed was obviously much faster, and he returned to the Duke's Mansion in less than half an hour.

After getting out of the car, Mrs. Xie immediately helped the maid and left in a hurry.

Zhou's mother Hou was by the side, seeing Yuzhu looking towards her, she hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "It's the grandma who suddenly started to move ahead of time, and the mothers-in-law for the delivery are all ready and have already gone in...Don't worry about the young master, this Then I sent someone to report to the old lady."

Ji Shi is going to give birth?Yu Zhu touched her stomach, feeling a little uneasy.

"Ma'am, I'd rather not go. You must be tired after driving the carriage for a long time. The servant will take you back to the Green Garden for a rest?" Zhou's mother was afraid that Yu Zhu would go to see the grandma... How miserable the woman was when she gave birth She knew very well in her heart that the second wife was pregnant with baby bumps, if she was frightened, she would die forever.

Cheng Xunxun frowned, and seemed to disapprove.

Yu Zhu didn't insist, and obediently followed Cheng Xunxun back to Qingyuyuan.

At first, I was still a little nervous, no matter whether I was sitting or standing, I could hear Ji's screams in my ears. Cheng Xunxun saw her restless and in a trance, it was funny and distressed at the same time. Standing up to persuade: "Madam, don't worry, Grandma is only having her first child. The first child is always like this. The time will not be short... You should go to bed first, maybe you will hear the good news tomorrow morning."

Unfortunately, early the next morning, the good news was not expected, but the news of Ji's dystocia came.

Xie's face was livid, and seeing Yuzhu coming in, she frowned, and looked behind Ruan's mother, her eyes were a little unfriendly, "Madam is young and ignorant, don't you know the rules as a mother, even if the wife wants to You don't know how to persuade me?"

Yu Zhu hurriedly defended Ruan's mother: "What Ruan's mother persuaded me is that I really can't stay in the house..."

"Ah——" Suddenly, Ji's cry of pain, which had weakened before, became sharp again, and Yu Zhu just choked the words in her mouth... (To be continued. If you like this movie Works, you are welcome to subscribe, reward, your support is my biggest motivation.)
