The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 51

Inside the main room of the Xie family, Aunt Shen's heart-wrenching groans could be heard.Xie Yujiao was someone who had seen the big world in her previous life, so she felt a little frightened when she heard this voice.Xu Huiru even hid behind Xie Yujiao, and when she heard Aunt Shen shouting inside, her body trembled, making Xie Yujiao's originally calm mood even more restless.

Mrs. Xu stood at the door and paced back and forth. Seeing Mama Zhang coming out, she rushed up to meet her and said, "How is it? What's the matter?"

Although Zhang's mother looked serious, she was a bit calmer than Xu's, she just said: "I haven't fully opened yet, but Wen Po said that the fetal position seems not right."

When Mrs. Xu heard this, her face paled immediately, and she put her palms together hurriedly, chanting the name of the Buddha in her mouth and said: "Amitabha, I must bless Aunt Shen to give birth to this child smoothly! Master, you have a spirit in heaven, and you must also bless you." It would be better if Aunt Shen gave birth to your offspring!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xu was in a complete mess, Madam Zhang only comforted her: "Madam, don't panic, the old aunt and the eldest aunt are helping inside! Helping Mrs. Wen to get the fetal position right, but I don't know if Aunt Shen will survive." I can survive, I'm afraid I will have to toss for several hours!"

There were already tears in Xu's eyes, and she hurriedly said, "I'll go in to help, too, and I'll go in to help too."

Xu Huiru was so frightened that she pulled Xie Yujiao's sleeves when she heard this, and Xie Yujiao called out to the servant girl, "Magpie, you can send Cousin back to Xiulou first, this is not where the girl stays. place."

When Xu Huiru heard about it, she only pulled Xie Yujiao's sleeve and refused to let go, and asked timidly, "Is my cousin not leaving? That sounds really scary."

Of course, Xie Yujiao can't leave at this moment. It's said that when a woman gives birth to a child, it's a circle behind closed doors. What can be expected from her.

"I'll wait here. You can go back. I'll ask the servant girl to report to you if I have any news." Xie Yujiao patted the back of Xu Huiru's hand to comfort her.

Aunt Shen's scream came from inside again, Xu Huiru shook her body in fright, nodded and left.

When Mrs. Xu heard this voice, she became more and more anxious. At this time, Mrs. Wen came out from the inside, saw Mrs. Xu and said, "Ma'am, my aunt has passed out from the pain. This is not possible. The fetal position is not correct, and my lord's body is not good enough." I can't make it through, I'm afraid this baby will be more dangerous than good, and if something goes wrong, Madam has to tell me whether it is to protect the adult or the child."

Mrs. Xu backed away in fright. Fortunately, Zhang's mother supported her, so she stabilized a little. Just as she was about to speak about protecting the child, Xie Yujiao stood up from the chair and said, "Lord Bao."

Mrs. Xu couldn't hold back for a while, and said: "Jiaojiao, if this child is a boy, he is your father's son, a descendant of the Xie family!" Knowing Xie Yujiao's temper, Mrs. Xu only whispered, "Otherwise , or protect the child?"

At this time, Xie Yujiao couldn't understand Xu's mood. If Xu could conceive Master Xie's child, she would have to risk her life to leave a descendant for the Xie family.But Xie Yujiao is not an ancient person. She wears ancient clothes and eats ancient rice, but there is a modern soul in her body. Let her give up a living life to protect the life of an unborn child who does not know the sufferings of the world. , she can't do it!
"No, I still have to protect my lord." Xie Yujiao only twisted the veil, and said with a hammer.

Mrs. Xu looked at Xie Yujiao, the tears in her eyes couldn't stop falling, she just said, "Jiaojiao, if you do this, if someone spreads the word in the future, everyone will just scold you, saying that you didn't even pay for your family property. I don't even care about my own brothers and sisters!"

Xie Yujiao didn't think so much at the moment, she just felt that human life was at stake, and she couldn't watch Aunt Shen die. Now that she heard what Xu said, she just sighed lightly in her heart and said: "Justice is in the heart, mother, don't be afraid , even if we don’t have this child, we can still choose an heir and keep him by our side, I don’t want any property of the Xie family, and I absolutely can’t just let Aunt Shen die!”

Mrs. Xu couldn't help it now, she just whimpered and started to cry.Seeing that Mrs. Wen didn't go in, the old aunt came out and said, "What are you talking about outside, you woman, you're awake, go in!"

Seeing that the two people still hadn't reached an agreement, Mrs. Wen just asked again: "Whether it's for the adults or the children, let me give you an accurate answer!"

Xu's crying stopped, she wiped her tears, and said with a calm expression on her face, "Listen to Jiaojiao, Lord Bao."

Everyone fell silent amid Aunt Shen's heart-piercing wailing.Mrs. Xu knelt at the door, clasped her hands together, and chanted Amitabha Buddha. Xie Yujiao stood up, watching the sky outside gradually darken, and the veil in her hand was torn open.

Suddenly, a clear and sweet cry broke the tranquility of the night and made the whole world come alive.

The maid helped Mrs. Xu to stand up tremblingly from the bluestone slab. Turning her head, she saw Zhang's mother coming out of the delivery room, and said with tears in her eyes, "Congratulations, Mrs. Congratulations, Mrs. Shen, Aunt Shen gave birth. It's a big fat boy, mother and child." Safety!"

"Heh..." Mrs. Xu breathed a sigh of relief, her heart returned to her chest, and she said with a smile, "Hurry up, take me in to see Aunt Shen and the child."

When Xie Yujiao heard the news, tears welled up in her eyes for a moment, and when she heard that she was a son, she suddenly felt that the burden on her shoulders seemed to have been lightened by half at once. She only sighed and sat down on the back On the chair with the backrest, when I picked up the handkerchief to wipe my sweat, I realized that the handkerchief was torn into pieces by myself.

Seeing Ziyan, she hurriedly passed a handkerchief to Xie Yujiao, and then asked: "Girl, it's getting dark, and the wives, aunts and grandmas haven't eaten all day, how about the servants go to the kitchen to pass the meals?"

Before Ziyan finished speaking, Xie Yujiao's stomach gurgled twice, which happened to be heard by Ziyan. Xie Yujiao felt a little embarrassed for a moment, so she gouged her out and said angrily: "You know why don't you go, Do we still have to see if we continue to be hungry?"

The servant girls in the room came out with basins of bloody water. Xie Yujiao saw that the old aunt and the eldest aunt came out of the room after wiping their hands clean, so she got up and went to serve them tea.The old aunt and grandma are thick-skinned now, and they drink it immediately after picking it up, but the aunt and grandma are a little embarrassed, and only thanked once before sitting down and drinking.

"Fortunately, Aunt Shen is young and has a good foundation. Otherwise, no one would be able to survive the whole day's tossing." The eldest aunt has been in poor health since she had a miscarriage, and there was a bit of envy in her words.

The old aunt and grandma were not thinking about these things. After drinking tea, she just sighed: "The Xie family finally has a son. I went to hell and met the old man, and I have an explanation." Wiping away her tears, she raised her head and glanced at the aunt who was sitting beside her, and said, "Now you are the only one who is still worrying, and I don't know what will happen to you in the future."

Xie Yujiao looked at everyone crying and crying on the big day, so she said, "Don't worry, grandma, my aunt is young and capable, and the Xie family will give you a dowry. Good days will come in the future! Don't you worry? what?"

Just as he was talking, he suddenly saw Mrs. Zheng coming in from the door in a hurry, Xie Yuyu held her in his arms and said, "What's going on, you're in such a hurry."

Seeing that everyone was there, Mrs. Zheng walked in, blessed her body and said, "Go back to Miss, there is news from Jiangjia Village that Jiang Guosheng is dead."

When Xie Yujiao heard such news out of the blue, she was a little stunned for a while, and then she smiled and said: "That's really a coincidence, our Xie family is having a baby today."

The expressions on the faces of the old aunt and the eldest aunt were different, but they didn't know what to say, so they just listened to Xie Yujiao's order and said: "If someone comes to report the funeral, we should follow the rules. I know this. In addition, Aunt Shen just gave birth to a big fat boy. Are the red eggs, maltose, etc. ready? I am happy today, and you happened to send a message for me to let the kitchen dye the eggs red , the entire Xie family house, together with those refugees who fled from the north, were sent together."

Mrs. Zheng said yes again and again, and said a few words of congratulations, and then left happily. Xie Yujiao saw her walking fast, and stopped her again: "You go to Shen's house by the way, let Aunt Shen's mother Come in and have a look."

When Xu came out of the room, she saw that Xie Yujiao had explained everything, with a smile on her face, Xie Yujiao only looked down to see the child in Xu's arms, with red lips pouting, and smooth skin on her face. It's not wrinkled like a newborn baby at all, and there are a few swarthy hairs standing on its head, and a pair of small hands clenched into fists, sleeping soundly.

Xie Yujiao immediately fell in love with her, she only raised her head to look at Xu Shi and said, "Mother, I... can I hug my brother?"

Mrs. Xu looked at Xie Yujiao's cautious look, and knew that she had never held a child before, so she smiled and said, "Sit down, and I will put it in your arms."

Xie Yujiao hurriedly found a place to do it, Xu carefully placed the child in Xie Yujiao's arms, and said lovingly, "This is your younger brother, how much does he look like your father?"

Mr. Xie's appearance had already been talked about earlier, and he hung it up in the ancestral hall. Now that Dawei has not left, he is giving their family a family portrait. Now that Aunt Shen's child is born, we can talk together went up.

Xie Yujiao lightly poked the little baby's tender cheek with her finger, raised her head and asked, "Mother, shall I give my younger brother a name?"

She didn't know about men and women before, and Xu didn't think about it. Now that she has to choose a name at this moment, she can't figure it out. She just frowned and said: "Otherwise, let's wait a few days, at least look through books or something."

Xie Yujiao didn't think much about naming it, so she frowned and said, "Come on, let Liu Er, housekeeper, ask the magistrate for a name tomorrow. Our family donated so many things, and we will get some benefits anyway!"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she nodded repeatedly. It was a great honor for Kang Guangshou's number one scholar to be named by him.
