The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 20

Aunt Shen has always been in good health, not delicate at all.At the beginning, Mrs. Xu valued her for this, and brought her in because she thought it would be good to be born. Today, everyone, old and young, came all the way, and everyone was fine, but Aunt Shen passed out, and Mrs. Xu's heart tightened a bit.

Xie Yujiao had a good impression of Aunt Shen, but her heart sank, she said sorry to Kang Guangshou, and helped Mrs. Xu go to the small shed where Aunt Shen was resting.

Aunt Shen was supported on the chair, her face was pale, and there was some cold sweat on her forehead.Xie Yujiao looked worried, so she asked the old woman who was watching, "What's wrong with Auntie?"

"I don't know, I guess I didn't eat much this morning, so I'm hungry after walking all the way." When I passed by just now, the people with the sacrificial sheds had prepared food. Xie Yujiao made some food along the way. I didn't feel hungry, but seeing Aunt Shen's pale child, who looked a little anemic, she said, "There is no doctor here, has someone invited a doctor?"

The old woman replied: "I asked the second housekeeper to invite him. The second housekeeper said that the road is quite far, so I'm afraid it will take a while."

Xie Yujiao was in a hurry when she saw Kang Guangshou's entourage coming over and said, "Miss Xie, my lord has a little knowledge of the art of Qi and Huang, let the servants come and ask Miss Xie if she wants to help, if there is no one who needs to be avoided, The adults in my family can help with diagnosis and treatment.”

Xie Yujiao's eyes lit up, she didn't expect the magistrate of this county to be quite versatile, she didn't say anything, she smiled in her heart and said: "Then go and invite the adults to come over and have a look, saving people is the most important thing, why are there so many taboos. "

Seeing that Aunt Shen hadn't woken up yet, Mrs. Xu was also worried. Aunt Fang and the old aunt at the side didn't go to join in the fun. Aunt Fang just said casually: "Usually in good health, you can eat a cow. Why are you so weak at this time?" , could it be that he knew that there was a county magistrate, so..."

Before Aunt Fang could finish her sentence, the old aunt and grandma made a sharp attack, and she was so frightened that she quickly fell silent.

Kang Guangshou's 26 appearance and dignified appearance are indeed worthy of admiration, but he is already married. I heard that the wife of the county magistrate is now pregnant with Liujia and will give birth in a short time.It's just that when I was pregnant last year, I ran all the way with Mr. Kang, but now my body is not too strong.

Seeing Kang Guangshou coming in, Mrs. Xu hurriedly gave him a seat. Kang Guangshou glanced at Aunt Shen, and seeing that she was dressed as a young woman, she knew in her heart that this was probably one of Master Xie's concubines. What happened, he hurriedly took out a veil from his sleeve, handed it to Magpie, and asked her to go up and cover Aunt Shen's wrist.

Seeing that Xie Yujiao was so thoughtful, Kang Guangshou felt relieved, and only stretched out his hand to rest on Aunt Shen's pulse.

This is really called whether I don’t know if I don’t know, I was shocked when I took it.Mrs. Kang is pregnant now, and Kang Guangshou will check her pulse every now and then, how can she not see that Aunt Shen is now a happy pulse!Kang Guangshou's face immediately changed color, Master Xie had only been gone for more than a month, and the concubine at home was pregnant with someone else's child, it would really embarrass Xie's family to say it.

Seeing that Kang Guangshou's face changed, Xie Yujiao's heart sank, she bit her lip and waited for Kang Guangshou to speak.Kang Guangshou only lowered his eyebrows and probed quietly for a moment, only to realize that the pulse was steady. It was obvious that he had had it for a while, and it didn't seem like he was just pregnant.

At this time, Aunt Shen also faintly woke up, and Mrs. Xu hurriedly asked her maid to pass her tea.Aunt Shen took a sip of her drink, but she still had a bad complexion, and Mrs. Xu couldn't help asking: "My lord, what's wrong with her?"

Kang Guangshou felt that he was inseparable, so he asked: "I don't know what to call this person, but I dare to ask, how long has it been since this grandma's Guishui arrived?"

When Aunt Shen was asked such a question by Kang Guangshou, she was also a little dazed. People in the countryside rarely paid attention to this kind of thing. In the past, when the farming season was busy, she wished she would not come here all year round!So Aunt Shen didn't remember when Guishui came last time, she only frowned and thought for a moment before she said, "It seems like I haven't come for three or four months."

When Kang Guangshou heard it, that's it. Mr. Xie is worthy of being a great benevolent person in the local area. God is so open to let him have such a blessing, and maybe he can leave a posthumous child.

"Congratulations, Mrs. Xie, this grandma is pregnant. Judging from the pulse detection below, it has been more than three months."

Aunt Shen lowered her head and glanced at her still flat belly in disbelief, with an unbelievable expression on her face. She also said a few days ago that she had gained weight and had a circle of flesh growing on her belly. Feelings are not the flesh on the outside, the flesh grows It's inside!

Xie Yujiao and Mrs. Xu were also overwhelmed by the great news that day, and they were speechless for a while. Mrs. Xu asked Kang Guangshou with a smile, "Master Kang, you are not lying to women, are you? This...is this so serious?" What a great thing? The master has a soul in the sky, and he can smile at Jiuquan."

Xie Yujiao was actually afraid that Kang Guangshou made a mistake, but seeing his face full of heavy bamboo, she felt embarrassed to ask again, but instead comforted Xu and said, "Mother, if you don't believe me, the second steward will invite a doctor later." , Let the doctor take a look and you will know. The most important thing right now is to let my aunt take good care of it. If it is really a boy, my father will have an offspring. If it is a girl, it doesn't matter. She is always the daughter of the Xie family. I also have a sister so that we can take care of each other."

Mrs. Xu just nodded her head, and muttered again: "Next month, I must go to the temple to repay God's favor! This is really eye-opening!"

Xie Yujiao saw that Mrs. Xu was so happy, and she was also happy in her heart. If Aunt Shen can really win a man in one fell swoop, the burden on Xie Yujiao's shoulders will be much easier.

When the old aunt over there heard that Aunt Shen was pregnant, her eyes rolled around Aunt Shen's belly, then she looked back at Aunt Fang, and cursed softly: "Your stomach is not up to snuff! You're so pissed off!"

Aunt Fang blushed immediately, she was about to cry, she hurriedly turned her head and wiped her tears, everyone was happy at this moment!If she cried, she would be laughed at instead.

Not long after, Second Housekeeper Liu had invited a doctor from the neighborhood, and the doctor felt Aunt Shen's pulse, and said, "This is a happy pulse! Could it be Master Xie's posthumous son? Congratulations!"

Only now did Mrs. Xu believe it completely, and hurriedly sent someone to give the reward, Xie Yujiao also heaved a sigh of relief, seeing the second old lady and the others still sitting in the shed opposite, with their necks up, arrogantly He walked over, and even though he was slightly blessed towards the crowd, he looked at him with the courage to raise his head and hold his chest high, and said with a smile: "Uncles and uncles, although my father left early, but he has accumulated good deeds in front of him. Now there is a good news, just now the magistrate and the doctor of Cai County have been diagnosed, and Aunt Shen is already three months pregnant, so I don’t know if my father has a son!"

After Xie Yujiao finished speaking, she specially blessed her body in front of the second old master, and continued: "Second uncle, it's hard for you to make a fuss about our heir these days, so tomorrow I will wait for Aunt Shen to give birth to my little brother. The first one to deliver red eggs to your house."

In this group of sitting people, there are also people who can't understand the second old man, and they secretly laugh at him, thinking about other people's money all the time, now the neck is stretched too long, and the head is twisted!

Hearing this, the second old man smiled awkwardly, and said with all his strength: "It is indeed... a great joy... a great joy."

Kang Guangshou saw this scene from a distance outside the shed, and found it very interesting. Seeing that it was getting late, he asked his followers to bid farewell to Mrs. Xu, and went back to the county government first.

In the study of the county government office, Zhou Tianhao was waiting for him, and when he saw him returning in a hurry, he joked, "The public servant is back from work?"

Seeing that he was inside, Kang Guangshou didn't go in, so he just said, "I just came back from that kind of place, so I won't go in, you wait here for a while, I'll go to the room and change some clothes."

Zhou Tianhao walked around several counties near Jinling a few days ago, and planned to return to the north officially tomorrow, so he came to Jiangning again, intending to say hello to Kang Guangshou, and then go back to the capital.

"Poverty." Watching Kang Guangshou leave, Zhou Tianhao only said disdainfully, and casually picked up the copywriting on Kang Guangshou's desk and read it.

Not long after, Kang Guangshou changed a piece of clothes and went back to the study. The servant made tea, and Kang Guangshou said, "I thought you had gone back to the capital, why haven't you left yet?" He and Zhou Tianhao had been playing together since childhood , there is only brotherhood, and usually there is no respect.

"I'm leaving tomorrow. Thinking of you being alone here alone, I'll come over and have a look at you again. How about that? Enough brotherly loyalty?"

"Okay, let me have a drink with you, so I can tell you about some strange people and strange things I encountered today." Kang Guangshou had a good harvest at Master Xie's funeral today. The local tyrant and country gentry saw a good show like Xie's family, and finally turned around from recruiting a son-in-law to having a son again, which is really rare and wonderful.

Zhou Tianhao sounded interesting, so he ordered someone to prepare food and drinks in the study, and the two chatted while drinking.

"These days there are not many girls who dare to speak out to find a husband, but Miss Xie really followed what Miao Zhu said back to the Earth Temple last time. She is really a delicate beauty! It's just that the look in her eyes reveals a shrewd look." Jiner, you can't guess what she is thinking at all. She is obviously a fairy in the painting, but when she speaks, her teeth are so sharp that none of the elders of the Xie family can speak, it is really amazing!"

Although the adjectives Kang Guangshou used were not commendatory, seeing the excitement in his eyes, they were full of praise, and Zhou Tianhao couldn't believe it when he heard it: "A girl from a landlord's family can be as good as you say." sharp?"

"What did I lie to you for? Besides, I have a family and a wife, can I still fall in love with her? But it's just telling the truth."

Seeing that Kang Guangshou's words were true, Zhou Tianhao felt a little interesting, with a playful look on his face, he smiled and said, "Is it really that good? Then next time I come here, do you recommend it?"

Kang Guangshou knew that Zhou Tianhao was just joking, so he turned his head and smiled and said, "Okay, don't play tricks, how is the payment for the food and wages going?"

When it came to business, Zhou Tianhao immediately put away his smug smile, and said solemnly: "It's not too far away, at least I'll get through the second half of this year, and I'll know what's going on when I go to the front line to see it."

When the front line was mentioned, both of them remained silent, Kang Guangshou only raised his wine glass and said, "Prince Rui, have a good journey!"

Zhou Tianhao picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, his eyes became darker and darker, staring at the void in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "I hope that next time you and I have a good time with each other, Dayong will drive away the wine." Day of the Tartars."
