"You don't have to think so much. Just take care of yourself and take care of yourself. I'll take care of everything else!" Qi Jintang hugged Lotus and comforted her.
"I also understand what my mother is thinking. In fact, there is no mother who doesn't look forward to having a grandson. Even my mother is the same. When my sister-in-law was pregnant, although she didn't say it, she secretly went to see her grandson. Guanyin, I also see it in my eyes. I don't worry about anything else now. I'm just afraid that I will give birth to a daughter and my mother will despise her and force her to live with you." Hehua snuggled into Qi Jintang's arms. She took his hand and circled it around her belly. Sometimes she felt really unwilling to think about it, but she had to face this reality. When Jasmine gave birth to Zaoer, Hehua couldn't fully understand the pain in her heart. Now, Only when I spread it on myself did I understand what it felt like. Chapter 412 Good intentions lead to bad things
"No matter who she puts in, I only want you." Qi Jintang gently stroked Hehua's belly, "I like both sons and daughters. It would be better to have a daughter as smart and sensible as you."
"Don't talk nonsense. If mother hears it, she'll be in trouble." He Hua quickly reached out and covered his mouth.
"Okay, I'll just leave it alone." Qi Jintang turned sideways, letting Lotus lean on his chest more comfortably, and put his arms around her and said, "Now that the dredging of the river is gradually on the right track, I don't need to I keep an eye on everything by myself, so I can spend more time at home with you."
Sure enough, in the next more than half a month, Qi Jintang only went to the river once. The rest of the time he stayed in the city to deal with official documents. He came back early every day to accompany Hehua, help her walk in the yard, and talk to her. Or read her a storybook.
Qi's mother couldn't help mumbling a few words at first, but later she saw that her son was still going his own way, and she was afraid that if she talked too much, Lotus would get angry and harm the child in her belly, so she had to give up.
However, she didn't care about the family affairs, so she put her mind elsewhere. She went out to find out the folk remedies for converting female fetuses into male fetuses, and from time to time she brought back some strange things for Hehua to try.
Chapter 412: There will inevitably be more messy decorations in the house if you do bad things with good intentions. There was also a lot of talisman paper stuffed under the pillow, and the lotus flowers were left to her to toss, but there were only things for her mouth, various incense and ashes, or some folk remedies. She absolutely refused to drink it.
But it's not good to contradict Qi's mother in person, let the girl take it, and then throw it away after Qi's mother leaves.
On this day, Qi's mother took a prescription that her servants went to the next county to ask for from an old god, and ordered her servants to grab the medicine and bring it to Hehua to drink. (full text novel)
Lotus still took it in person, and then told Xiaozhen to pour it out.
It's such a coincidence that Master Qi's birthday will be in two months. Qi's mother was thinking about discussing with He Hua what birthday gifts to send back, so she led the girl to the He Hua house, when she saw Xiao Zhen holding a medicine bowl and pouring the soup into the dirty bucket.
Qi's mother immediately became furious. She stepped forward, pinched Xiao Zhen's wrist and cursed: "You little hooves, I paid real money for the folk remedy I worked so hard to find out." .Is it because you worked so hard to get through it that you ruined it like this?"
Seeing that Xiaozhen was caught, he couldn't help but feel guilty. Kneeling down, he forced himself to lie and said: "In reply to Madam, Grandma vomited violently after only taking half a mouthful of it. The servant did not dare to force Grandma to drink it. She was afraid that Madam would be worried and did not dare to reply, so she took it out and poured it on her own initiative. Now, this slave deserves to die."
Qi's mother was dubious when she heard the words. She looked at Xiaozhen for a long time, then turned and went into the house and said, "Kneel outside and I'll ask He Hua."
Xiao Zhen seemed anxious, but he couldn't find any way to go in and talk to He Hua. I had to kneel on the porch outside and shed tears.
Bai Zhi was boiling anti-fetal medicine in the ear room, and heard all the noise outside. When she saw Qi going inside, she hurriedly ran up the stairs at the back. Before she could explain what was going on, she heard the sound at the door. There were footsteps. Quickly and wisely, he sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to pull Lotus, and patted her back while saying, "Grandma, do you feel better? Do you still want to vomit? Can I bring you a glass of water to rinse your mouth?"
Hehua was confused, and then she saw Mrs. Qi coming into the house angrily. She suddenly understood. She pretended to retching twice, but was so provoked that she felt really sick. She vomited several mouthfuls of sour water before she managed to stop. He couldn't help but look pale.
When Mrs. Qi entered the door and saw that He Hua was indeed vomiting, she immediately put aside the thought of questioning her just now and stepped forward and asked, "Are you feeling better? Are you still feeling sick in your stomach? Hurry up and ask a doctor to come and take a look." After saying this, she felt distressed again. He picked up the medicine he just poured out and muttered, "I can't drink it now. Maybe I can drink it at night. Why bother pouring it out? It's all in vain. I spent several taels of silver!"
When the doctor walked in, Qi Jintang came back. Thinking that He Hua was really feeling unwell and anxious, he strode upstairs and asked the doctor hurriedly: "How is my wife's health? She was fine when she got up in the morning. Why did she suddenly feel so bad?" Feeling uncomfortable?"
"It's nothing serious, Madam. It's just that pregnant people are more sensitive to smells and food. If they smell something wrong or eat something they don't like, they will naturally feel nauseated. This is also human nature. , Sir, don’t worry, just take the anti-fetal medicine as usual, be careful with other things you put in your mouth, light ones are best.”
Qi Jintang frowned and asked Miao'er, "You've been pregnant for so long, why haven't you figured out what lotus you like in the kitchen? What did you eat today?"
Miao'er hesitated and didn't dare to speak, while Bai Zhi lowered her head hard at the side.
Qi Jintang's expression became even more ugly, and he almost felt like having a seizure.
Seeing this, Qi's mother had no choice but to say: "I asked someone for a dose of medicine, saying that after drinking it, I would keep it and give birth to a son. Who knew that Lotus would vomit after just one sip. I..."
"Mom, you..." Qi Jintang didn't expect that it was his mother. He was so angry that he had nowhere to go. His face was livid, and he turned to the girls and shouted, "Where is the medicine? I haven't brought it to the doctor yet." , eating it will cause trouble."
After hearing this, Qi's mother's face turned ugly. Her son was embarrassing himself in front of outsiders and servants, but he did it himself, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. , also stood aside with a cold face.
After hearing this, Miao'er hurriedly went downstairs and found the porcelain bowl that had been filled with medicine next to the dirty water bucket. Fortunately, there was still a little medicinal soup left in the bottom of the bowl.
The doctor took it and smelled it closely, then dipped his little finger into it and tasted it carefully. Then he looked serious and asked seriously: "Madam, can you take this bowl of medicine?"
"No, I felt sick as soon as the medicine touched my lips, so I vomited it all." He Hua could only lie bravely.
"Fortunately, fortunately, this dose of medicine should be matched with anti-fetal medicine, but the weight of several key medicinal ingredients has increased a lot. If you drink this bowl, I am afraid that even a perfectly good fetus will be stillborn. ." After hearing this, the doctor happily raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
As soon as these words came out, Qi Jintang's face became darker and darker, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became depressing. Qi's mother's feet were weak, and she was swayed by the girl behind, and she barely managed to avoid falling.
Qi Jintang sent the doctor away with a sullen expression. He held He Hua's hand fearfully and said without raising his eyelids: "What are you doing? Madam is tired. Why don't you help her back to rest quickly?"
Qi's mother was scared and annoyed. When her son gave him a step, even though his tone was really bad, she didn't dare to say anything more at this time. She was supported by two girls and walked slowly back to the room.
He Hua looked at Yu Xin and couldn't bear it. She held Qi Jintang with her backhand and waved the girl away before saying, "Brother Jintang, I have a sense of propriety. I am very careful about what I put into my mouth. Just now, my mother saw Xiao Zhen pouring out the medicine. Xiaozhen was afraid that mother would be angry, so she lied and said I drank the medicine... Mother didn't mean any harm, so don't be angry."
"I'm not angry, I'm just worried about you." Qi Jintang sighed, with his mother on one side and his wife on the other, how could it be so comfortable to be caught in the middle, especially when trouble always happened to his mother, who couldn't even say harsh words.
The two of them were talking together when Bai Zhi hurriedly came in and said, "Master, grandma, it's not good, my wife has to pack her bags and go back to her hometown."
The two were shocked when they heard it, and hurriedly got up and went over to see what was going on.
Qi's mother's room was in chaos at this time. The two girls were ordered to pack things. They looked anxious but did not dare to persuade. When they saw Qi Jintang and He Hua coming over, they were relieved. They stepped forward to salute and then retreated. .
"Mom, what are you doing?" Qi Jintang asked as he entered the room.
Hehua tugged at his clothes from behind, then stepped forward to hold Qi's mother's hand, sat on the edge of the couch and said, "Mom, what did we do wrong that made you angry? Why do we have to go back so suddenly?" "
"There's nothing wrong with you. It's all my own fault. I did bad things with good intentions. Instead of staying here and annoying people, it's better for me to pack my things and go back, so as not to be kicked out later." Qi's mother cried as she said this. He got upset and said, "I'm just a son. I've been struggling since I was little. It's easy for me. Now that I've grown up, my wings have become stronger. In my eyes, I only have a wife and not a mother. I..."
"Mom, we don't mean to blame you. Stop crying." Hehua said, getting up and twisting the handkerchief to wipe Qi's mother's face, "This is the first time I'm pregnant and I don't understand anything. If you don't Come on, I don’t even know what to do! Even if you are worried about your father-in-law and things in your hometown, I am going to give birth in a few months, so you have to keep it to reassure me, right? We are two young people, I have never experienced anything like this before. If you are not in charge, what will happen then?"
Qi's mother looked at Hehua with red eyes. Seeing that her expression was very sincere, she calmed down a little. She took Hehua's hand and said, "What happened today is my fault. I was really frightened by what the doctor said just now." Once you jump, you will never do it again." (To be continued.
