The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 213
Qiao Jiuxiu rested her head on the table weakly. Her life recently was really boring. It has been three months since she moved to Ye Duanyi's place, and nothing happened during the three months. She just played with Ye Duanyi , while making clothes and shoes for her future children, although life is pleasant, it is easy to make people feel bored.

"Sister Duanyi, I've finished another pair of small shoes." Qiao Jiuxiu pointed to the small shoes on the side and said to Ye Duanyi.Ye Duanyi smiled lightly, touched her obviously swollen belly, smiled like a child, gently picked up the little shoes and looked at them carefully, "Jiumei, you are really ingenious, this little shoe is so ingenious. It’s so beautiful, pink auspicious clouds are embroidered on the light blue embroidered cloth, it can be worn by both boys and girls.”

"Yes." Qiao Jiuxiu smiled bitterly, "It's fine if you like it, I'm afraid I'm not doing well enough. But Sister Duanyi, don't you think this kind of life is too boring? You can only stay in the room every day , Even if you want to take a walk, you can’t leave the yard.” Although Qiao Jiuxiu likes to be quiet, her current life is too peaceful, and she once thought she was in jail.Ye Duanyi shook her head, and only said that it was a matter of self-cultivation.

Qiao Jiuxiu let out a sigh of relief, maybe it will be all right in half a month.She told her wife before that she read in a book that prenatal education can be given to unborn children, which can improve the intelligence and cultivation level in the later stage. After hearing this, the wife was very interested, so she asked Qiao Jiuxiu to try it. Anyway, this thing only There are no disadvantages in the advantages, but prenatal education generally takes five or six months to be effective. She thought that by that time, she would have something to do and would not be as boring as she is now.

"Button." There were two knocks on the door, and Qiao Jiuxiu got up quickly, knowing that Jinxiu had returned.They can't leave this courtyard now, so Jinxiu is asked to inquire about the news of Qiao's residence every day, and then report to herself.However, there seems to be no major news recently.There were only a few things that Jinxiu kept talking about over and over again.But it's not that there is no gain at all, at least one more person can talk to them.

"Miss, today Jinxiu has something very important to tell you and the young mistress." Jinxiu's expression was very serious, Qiao Jiuxiu and Ye Duanyi were also interested, wanting to know what Jinxiu had to say.Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Jinxiu cleared her throat slightly, "This matter is really important. I just heard from Ruyi that Miss Six seems to be pregnant."

Both Qiao Jiuxiu and Ye Duanyi froze in place, the news was indeed shocking enough.Qiao Jiuxiu looked at Jinxiu suspiciously, "Jinxiu, is this news true? Sixth Sister has been pregnant for just over three months since she married?" Qiao Jiuxiu was suspicious, one reason was that Sixth Sister married Lin Zhiyi only three months ago. In a month, I actually had a body.Second, the sixth sister is only 17 years old this year. Is it too early to have a body now? Is there any misunderstanding?
"It shouldn't be wrong." Jinxiu nodded and said, "I made a special trip to ask Ruyi about the details. Ruyi said that the best medical girl in the capital went to take the pulse, and she was very sure, and asked Miss Six to take the pulse every seven days. I just went to a follow-up visit, and said that this time it is very likely that it will be a boy. The Lin family has no heirs at present, if Miss Six really gave birth to a boy, then it must be a future son who will inherit the title."

Ye Duanyi nodded, Lin's mansion is a hereditary title, Lin Zhiyi is the eldest grandson of the head of the house, Qiao Liuxiu is his wife, and the first son of his wife is naturally the chosen son, who will inherit the title.Qiao Jiuxiu smiled softly, as if she didn't feel unhappy in her heart at all. Although she didn't like Qiao Liuxiu, she used to be in rivalry when she was in the Qiao Manor, but now that Qiao Liuxiu has left the Qiao Manor after all, the grievances between them can be regarded as It's over, now that Qiao Liuxiu has her own child, she is also happy for her.

"That's really great." Qiao Jiuxiu said sincerely, "I never thought that Sixth Sister would have a child so soon."

"Jiumei, aren't you worried?" Ye Duanyi gave Qiao Jiuxiu a strange look. She didn't understand why Qiao Jiuxiu could still laugh sincerely after hearing that Qiao Liuxiu had given birth.Qiao Liuxiu has always been unable to tolerate Qiao Jiuxiu in her heart, even when she was the most lonely in Qiao's mansion, she never forgot to trample Qiao Jiuxiu under her feet.Now she has become the wife of the eldest son and is pregnant with Liujia. The child will inherit the title in the future. When we meet next time, she will definitely humiliate Qiao Jiuxiu, so that she will feel at ease.

"What am I worried about? Does this have anything to do with me?" Qiao Jiuxiu looked at Jinxiu and Ye Duanyi strangely, and found that there was some worry in their eyes. She shrugged her shoulders slightly, "No, what are you worried about?" Sixth Sister has a child, does that have anything to do with me?"

"Miss, aren't you worried that Miss Six will do something to you after she gains power? It's not a day or two for her to have prejudice against you." Jinxiu bit her lip and said worriedly.Qiao Jiuxiu just shook her head slightly, "Jinxiu, Sixth Sister has already left Qiao's Mansion, and I'm still in Qiao's Mansion, how many times a year can I see her? When we meet again, I'll avoid her and let her go, right? There is nothing to worry about."

Qiao Jiuxiu spoke very easily.Ye Duanyi thinks about it for the same reason, and Qiao Jiuxiu will marry sooner or later, and the chances of meeting will be even less. Even if Qiao Liuxiu saves enough money to humiliate Qiao Jiuxiu, she will have no chance.It was she and Jinxiu who were worrying about nothing just now.Slightly relieved, she asked Jinxiu to explain the details.Jinxiu nodded and said that this morning, the wife was having breakfast, and the Lin family sent a servant girl over, saying that Miss Six was pregnant. At that time, the wife became restless and lost the mood to eat breakfast, so she quickly changed her clothes, He went to the Lin Mansion with that maid, presumably to make a special trip to see Miss Six.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded. The child in Sixth Sister's womb is the future heir of the Lord's Mansion, so it is only reasonable for the wife to care about her.But this matter has nothing to do with her, after the fun is over, there is nothing to do.So he looked at Jinxiu again, "Then is there anything else?"

"There's nothing else going on." Jinxiu shook her head slightly. Recently, the Qiao Mansion has been very peaceful, as if nothing happened, and it seemed that something big was brewing. "However, I heard from Ruyi that because the eldest sister is so kind and generous, many high-ranking officials have set their sights on Qiao's mansion and want to establish a relationship with us. Therefore, many people come to propose marriage, such as the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household Affairs. , Ministry of War, many officials have come to propose marriage, and my wife has to welcome several waves almost a day."

"Isn't this a big deal?" Qiao Jiuxiu sighed helplessly, life in Qiao's mansion is booming now, naturally there are many powerful officials who want to please Qiao's mansion.Proposing marriage at home was a tactic they always used, but several daughters of the Qiao family were already married, and only she and Qiao Shixiu were left.But Qiao Shixiu has not yet reached the age of Ji, and is still a child with a head.So these people, I'm afraid they are all aimed at themselves.She doesn't want to marry herself out yet, and start a marriage that she doesn't know if she has a future.And no matter how prosperous the Qiao Mansion is, with her status, she might only be a concubine.Being a concubine never came to a good end, so she knew it well.

"Miss, I know you don't want to marry, but you still have to listen to what I have to say." Jinxiu still had a calm expression on her face, as if she was not affected by Qiao Jiuxiu's nervousness at all, "Although people who come to propose marriage every day There are many, but my wife refused. Regardless of the high position and weight, or the large amount of dowry, my wife did not agree, saying that she would keep you by my side for an extra year and a half, so don't worry, miss, my wife has no plans to let you get married for the time being. "

Hearing this, Qiao Jiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Jinxiu, don't speak so out of breath in the future, okay? I don't know if I'll be worried?"

Jinxiu stuck out her tongue, saying that she must pay attention next time.After talking about a few unimportant things, she started to get busy with other things. Jinxiu made tea for Ye Duanyi and Qiao Jiuxiu, Qiao Jiuxiu made small clothes, and Ye Duanyi leaned on the bed and read a book of Sun Tzu's Art of War.After all, she is the daughter of a general. She doesn't like red clothes and arms by nature, so she always likes to read military books when reading books.Although my wife doesn't like this, she thinks it's harmless, so she just follows her. She still doesn't want to make her angry because Ye Duanyi is the person who needs the most care now.

"Miss, can you teach me how to embroider?" Seeing that Qiao Jiuxiu had finished another small shoe, Jinxiu said sincerely.Although she can do some embroidery, if compared with Qiao Jiuxiu, she is definitely a heaven and a world.Qiao Jiuxiu stopped her work, "Huh? Jinxiu, why do you want to learn embroidery?"

"There's no reason, miss. Didn't you say before that this is something every woman should know? Jinxiu naturally has to learn." Although Jinxiu said so, her face turned red for some reason Xia.Qiao Jiuxiu suddenly realized and nodded, "By the way, I haven't seen Song Yu for a long time, is he okay?"

"He's fine." Jinxiu said casually, and then realized that there was a trap, so she quickly changed her words, "Miss, how do I know, I haven't seen him for a long time, you Why are you asking me this question all of a sudden?"

Qiao Jiuxiu smiled lightly, she had already been exposed just now, so naturally the following set of rhetoric was not credible, "Jinxiu, come on, tell me what you want to do for Song Yu, I'll just teach you."

"I didn't intend to give it to him." Jinxiu's face was already flushed, but Ye Duanyi and Qiao Jiuxiu looked at each other and smiled, they were really cute girls.
