peasant girl

Chapter 566 Suspicion broke out in a cold sweat (2 more

After Fang's mother finished speaking, she looked into Zhu Xiao's eyes with distress.

"Actually, it's not only for these children, but more for myself, Aunt Fang. Although I have forgotten the past, I still have my own things to do. I can't stay in Wucheng forever. I have to have a Token, you can enter and leave this Wucheng at will, live in Wucheng if you want to live in Wucheng, and go outside if you want to, have a legitimate identity, the kind that others will be afraid of!"

Mother Fang took a deep breath, "The lady must think about it, once some paths are decided, there will be no turning back!"

"Ok!"

Zhu Xiao nodded.

She sometimes feels sorry for herself, can't think of anything, and has a big belly.

Sometimes I feel that I am very lucky, at least I met my grandfather, godfather, godmother, Aunt Fang, Aunt Lan, Fang Zhi and Lan Kai.

Although she was the first to throw out the olive branch, these people were really kind to her.

Mother Fang nodded and backed out.

Sitting alone in the room, Zhu Xiao secretly made a decision.

Buy mountains and open land first, and do business at the same time.

Sell ​​the gold and jade bracelets in your hand, exchange them for silver, and keep a jade token as a last resort.

Just what to do?

Tofu?

She walked around today, but she didn't see anyone buying tofu, and there seemed to be no one selling it on the street. She didn't eat tofu at Hu's house these days, but there were people growing soybeans here.

The next day, Lan Kai sent old man Meng to see his old friend, Zhu Xiao was at home, Fang Zhi glanced at the door and came back, angrily said, "There are so many little beggars at the door, blocking the alley!"

"Did your mother cook the sweet potatoes?"

"Still renting it!"

Zhu Xiao thought for a while, "When it's done cooking, you can take out the sweet potatoes and share them. If a child asks, just say that I'm not feeling well and I won't go out today!"

"Ok!"

Fang Zhi didn't ask why, and went as instructed.

When the sweet potatoes were cooked well, they took them one by one into the basin and shared them with Mother Fang.

The children took the sweet potatoes and ate them bite by bite. Someone couldn't help but ask, "Where's Madam?"

"Ma'am is not feeling well, so I won't come out today, you guys go quickly with your food, don't disturb Madam to rest, don't come back tomorrow!"

"..."

"..."

The children looked at Fang Zhi, and immediately felt uncomfortable, and left with their heads lowered while holding the sweet potatoes.

Zhu Xiao hid in the dark and watched without saying a word.

The three pots of sweet potatoes are neatly divided, one for each small one, and one for the larger sweet potatoes for two people.

"Wait!" Zhu Xiao said softly.

When the children heard the voice, they all turned their heads and looked at Zhu Xiao in surprise, "Ma'am!"

Want to get close to Zhu Xiao, but dare not approach.

"Come back tomorrow, I'll ask Aunt Fang and Sister Fang Zhi to make soy milk for you to drink, one bowl for each!"

"really?"

"Ok!"

Zhu Xiao nodded slightly and coughed lightly.

"Is madam sick?"

"No problem!"

Zhu Xiao smiled slightly, "You all go back, come back tomorrow!"

"Yes, we listen to Madam!"

With so many children, they didn't dare to stay here for too long. Even though they were reluctant, they left.

Zhu Xiao waited until they were far away before turning around and returning to the house.

Fang Zhi didn't understand why Zhu Xiao came here again, but seeing the eyes of the children, he immediately understood.

Madame is kind, hoping to get something in return.

Zhu Xiao returned to the house, waited for Fang's mother to come over, and asked her, "Why is no one selling tofu in Wucheng?"

"Because brine is not easy to buy and is very expensive, most of the beans are boiled and eaten, even if they are ground into pulp and boiled with soy milk, there are very few. After all, sugar is expensive!"

"..."

Zhu Xiao thought for a while and then asked, "What about the fish?"

"Fish is also very expensive. There is a huge swamp on the edge of Wucheng, and you can't see the end. If Madam wants to see it, it would be good for Lan Kai to take it to see it!"

"Well, let's go and have a look. Since it is boundless, you can always see the editor. I don't know if the swamp can be dug. If it can be dug out, then..." Zhu Xiaoxiao said, smiling slightly, "It's my imagination!"

Mother Fang also laughed, "Madam can't do it alone, but if His Majesty decrees, there is nothing that cannot be done!"

"Yes, it's a pity that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. His Majesty the Emperor will not come to Wucheng!"

"If you don't come, don't come. What are you doing here in the backcountry? Ma'am, I will cook some bone porridge later, so you can eat less!"

"If you eat too much, will the child grow too big and difficult to give birth?"

Mother Fang nodded, "That's exactly the truth!"

Zhu Xiao leaned lazily on the chair, "I remember, someone once told me that, I won't let me eat too much all day long, and there are many people around me to serve..." Zhu Xiao sighed, "But think about it carefully. , and I can’t think of anything, so I simply don’t think about it, let’s go with the flow!”

"It's good for Madam to think so, just let it go, it's good for Madam's health, and the child in her belly is also good!"

"Aunt Fang is right!"

The two seldom gossip, while Fang Zhi sits on the sidelines and does needlework. The children's clothes, trousers, tiger shoes, and tiger hat have to be prepared.

"Ma'am, how many months are you pregnant?"

"I forgot to ask at Baojitang earlier, so I'll ask a doctor to come back tomorrow to take a look!"

It's just that before Zhu Xiao went to ask for a doctor, Nan Gongling from Baoji Hall came looking for him.

Nan Gongling explained the purpose of coming, Zhu Xiao thought about it and decided to meet him.

"Please come in!"

Nan Gongling entered the living room, "Ma'am, you are polite!"

Seeing him being so polite, Zhu Xiao didn't want to show a cold face, and got up to feel blessed.

"Give tea to the doctor!"

Nan Gongling watched Zhu Xiao salute, and his eyes changed slightly, "Looking at Madam's gesture of saluting, she doesn't look like someone from an ordinary family!"

"What does that look like?" Zhu Xiao asked back.

"Like coming out of the palace!"

Zhu Xiao stood up suddenly, stunned and shocked, and then slowly sat back, "How do you say that?"

"At the beginning, I was an imperial physician in the capital, and I was also the head of the imperial hospital. I was dispatched to the frontier only because of some things, and I was never allowed to return to Beijing. Naturally, I have seen the gestures of the ladies in the palace!"

"The palace..."

Zhu Xiao paused slightly, "Then I may not be from the palace, after all, after the current Holy Majesty ascended the throne, only two of his brothers were named princes..."

Zhu Xiaojing.

Nangong Ling also changed his face in shock.

In this way, Zhu Xiao is extremely likely to be a certain concubine, or side concubine, or a concubine of a certain prince.

"..."

Fang's mother and Fang Zhi were also covered in cold sweat in the capital, and were too frightened by this conjecture for a long time to recover.

Zhu Xiao stood up slowly, walked to the door, looked at the sky, "It's snowing again!"

An inexplicable sentence, but it makes people feel distressed.

If she really belonged to a certain prince, then she would never even think about leaving Wucheng in this lifetime.

But it's not right, if she is the woman of a certain prince, why would Bu Xicheng take her to Da Viet with all his heart?
Then why did he hypocritically let her go?

She couldn't figure out all of this, and felt that her brain was not enough!
