"Dalang's daughter-in-law, don't cry, the child will be gone when it is gone, and after taking care of the body, there will be children in the future."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei persuaded Jia.
Jia Shi didn't know where the strength came from. She held Gu Rui's hand tightly, and begged him with a ferocious expression: "Save the child, please save the child. We only have this child, please don't give up on him, okay?" .”
Gu Rui had a sullen face, otherwise, he was afraid that he would lose control.
He held Jia Shi's hand with both hands, "Don't think too much, there will be children in the future."
"No. If you give up the child, we will never have children in the future."
Jiashi cried out.
Gu Rui's eyes were red, "Your life is more important, I can't waste your life just to have a child."
"I'm not afraid of death, please keep the child."
"But I'm afraid you'll die. Don't make trouble, will you? The baby's gone, gone. It's all about keeping you alive."
The light in Jia Shi's eyes disappeared instantly, and her expression froze.
Gu Rui was frightened to death, "Mingyue, Mingyue, don't worry about it. Imperial doctor, take a quick look, what's wrong with Mingyue?"
"It's bleeding again, I have to take the baby out quickly." Imperial Physician Hu frowned tightly, Jia's condition was very bad, if he was not careful, he would be dead and killed twice.
Physician Hu told Gu Rui, "Talk to her, stay awake, and don't fall asleep."
Gu Rui nodded heavily.
The eldest lady Xiao Wei asked in a low voice: "The body of Dalang's daughter-in-law, now that the child is taken out, can it bear it?"
Imperial Physician Hu simply walked out of the bedroom.
The eldest lady Xiao Wei hurriedly followed.
Seeing the two of them coming out, Gu Mei also moved over.
The eldest lady, Xiao Wei, did not drive her away.
Imperial Physician Hu said in a low voice: "I'm dissatisfied with Madam, now take the child away, and the young mistress still has a chance to live. If it's too late, I'm worried that the worst will happen."
The worst result is naturally one dead and two dead.
Gu Mei covered her mouth, not daring to make a sound.
The eldest lady Xiao Wei frowned, and asked: "If you take the child away now, how sure are you that you can keep the adult?"
Imperial Physician Hu said: "I'm only 50% sure at most, and it depends on the young lady's desire to survive. As long as the young lady doesn't give up, the chance of success is great."
The eldest lady Xiao Wei nodded, gritted her teeth and said, "Do our best to save the adult's life. As for the child, we can bear any result."
Imperial Physician Hu nodded, "The process is a bit long and cruel. I am worried that the young master will not be able to bear the scene. It is best to ask the young master to come out. Just a few maids who are needed to help."
The eldest lady Xiao Wei responded, "I'll settle this matter."
Imperial Physician Hu prescribed the prescription, and the maids came in and out to decoct the medicine, cleaned the bed, and brought out pots of blood.
The eldest wife Xiao Wei coaxed and persuaded, and invited the eldest young master Gu Rui out of the bedroom.
Gu Rui's eyes were red, and his brows were full of worry.
He sat on the chair in a daze, staring at the bedroom, watching the door of the bedroom being closed.
Gu Rui clenched his fists tightly, clenched his teeth, and his face was tense.
If someone reached out to touch Gu Rui, he would find that not only his face, but his whole body was tense.
Gu Jiu opened her mouth, wanting to persuade her. After thinking about it, I gave up.
At this time, any language seems pale and powerless.
And Gu Rui doesn't need other people's comfort, he is as bright as a mirror in his heart.
Gu Mei looked at Gu Rui's appearance and sighed.
She sat with Gu Jiu and whispered, "Sister Xiao Jiu, I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, nothing will happen."
Gu Mei nodded: "Sister-in-law will definitely get through this crisis safely."
She looked at Gu Rui, and seeing Gu Rui's appearance made her feel uncomfortable.
Time passed bit by bit, and wave after wave of people came.
Gu Mei and Gu Jiu missed the lunch perfectly, and neither of them had any appetite for dinner.
Gu Rui, on the other hand, did not feel hungry at all.
The time was too long, and everyone followed in fear.
Someone else is coming.
Those who came back were familiar people.
The old lady Wei, the second wife Wang, the third lady Duan, and the eldest wife Zhang, Xie, and girls from the two families.
The second wife, Mrs. Wang, helped the old lady, Mrs. Wei, into the main room.
Gu Jiu and Gu Mei stood up quickly.
Gu Rui was belatedly aware of the arrival of the person after being reminded. Also stood up quickly.
The old lady Wei asked, "What's the situation now?"
Gu Mei said: "Reporting to the old lady, the imperial physician is still inside. The child is gone."
Everyone showed regretful and sad expressions.
The second wife, Wang Shi, said: "Da Lang's daughter-in-law had such a hard time conceiving this pregnancy, I didn't expect that the child still couldn't be kept."
"Da Lang, don't think too much. When your daughter-in-law is healthy, you will have children in the future." The third wife, Duan Shi, advised.
Gu Rui seemed to be a walking dead, his soul was in the bedroom.
Hearing the words of the third wife Duan, it took her a while to realize, "Thank you, Third Aunt, for your concern."
The old lady Wei sighed, "Da Lang, be careful. The child is predestined."
Gu Rui nodded heavily, "I know, I'm just worried about Mingyue."
"Your daughter-in-law is auspicious and she has her own destiny. She will be fine."
Gu Rui turned his head away and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
The second wife Wang helped the old lady Wei to sit down.
The old lady Wei said: "Let's find a place to sit, this meeting doesn't need to be so particular, just be more casual."
Everyone nodded.
The old lady Wei looked at Gu Jiu and Gu Mei again, "You haven't eaten yet, you must be starving. The old man has already asked his servants to prepare the food, and put it in the wing room. You go to eat first, and take a rest by the way." Rest. There is an old man guarding here, nothing will happen."
Gu Jiu and Gu Mei nodded and said yes, "The old lady is worried, it's the granddaughter's fault."
"What are you talking about, let's go eat quickly."
Gu Jiu and Gu Mei went to the side room for dinner.
Both of them had no appetite, so after eating a little less than half a bowl, they asked the maid to remove the food and clean up the table.
After the two of them finished their meal, the other girls also came to the wing.
Gu Mei asked: "Have all the relatives left?"
Gu Qi nodded, "Such a big event happened at home, the original troupe was cancelled, and everyone lost their minds about listening to the show. The guests also left after lunch."
Gu Mei secretly sighed.
For today's banquet, a well-known opera troupe from the capital was specially invited to sing. According to the plan, after the luncheon, everyone went to listen to the opera, which was lively and lively.
But when something happened to the eldest young mistress, everyone lost their minds.
So today's banquet, as a last resort, ended early. The theater troupe also returned.
"Is sister all right?"
Gu Qi asked worriedly.
Gu Mei frowned, and said, "It's not clear yet."
"Is the child really gone?" Gu Ying asked.
Gu Mei nodded, "My sister-in-law is bleeding heavily, and the child cannot be saved. Now I can only give up the child and protect the adult."
As soon as the voice fell, everyone turned pale.
"Sister-in-law will be fine. Doctor Hu is a master of gynecology, and he will definitely save sister-in-law's life."
Everyone nodded in unison.
Everyone involuntarily looked towards the bedroom, hoping that everything would go well.
The bedroom door opened, and Imperial Physician Hu came out with a tired face.
Everyone looked at him nervously.
Imperial Physician Hu said directly: "The child was taken down, and the adults kept it. But the next few days are very critical, and there may be heavy bleeding. In short, the people who serve in the next few days must do their best and spend twelve hours a day by the eldest grandma's side. No one can be missing.”
The old lady Wei asked: "Can Imperial Physician Hu just stay in the mansion? Look at the situation of my Dalang's daughter-in-law. If there is an accident, I will send someone to invite you. I'm afraid it will be too late. Human life is at stake, so please Hu The imperial physician understands a thing or two."
Gu Jiu followed Gu Mei and the others into the main room, and found that Doctor Hu was looking towards her.
She hurriedly lowered her head, avoiding Doctor Hu's gaze.
Imperial Physician Hu immediately understood, he nodded, and said: "Madam is right, it is really inconvenient for me to leave at this time. How about it, there is nothing to do in the palace these two days, so I will stay at the mansion first."
The old lady Wei immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "It's so good! Come here and arrange a guest room for Imperial Physician Hu in the outer courtyard, and then send appropriate people to take care of it."
Imperial Physician Hu said: "The old lady is polite. I will leave the kumquats here, and she will take care of the young mistress today."
The old lady Wei hurriedly said: "With kumquats to take care of Dalang's wife, I feel at ease. I have worked hard today, Imperial Physician Hu, you go to the guest room to settle down first, and later, the old Hou will come to you for tea."
Imperial Physician Hu laughed, "It's been a long time since I had tea with the old Hou Ye, today is just a coincidence."
Imperial Physician Hu bid farewell and left, and the old lady Wei led everyone into the bedroom.
The girls were all barred from the door and could not go in.
The eldest lady, Xiao Wei, stood by the bed, looking tired.
Eldest young master Gu Rui rushed into the bedroom as early as the door opened and stood by Jia Shi's side.
Jia Shi was in a coma, and he probably wouldn't wake up until night.
The old lady Wei asked the eldest lady, "What's the situation with Dalang's daughter-in-law?"
The eldest lady Xiao Wei said: "After taking the medicine, Imperial Physician Hu asked Kumquat to watch over it. If there is another hemorrhage..."
The rest of the words, the eldest lady Xiao Wei did not say it.
But everyone understood what she was saying.
If hemorrhage occurs again, Jia Shi may not be able to keep it.
Seeing a burden on the table, the old lady Wei asked softly, "This is it?"
The eldest lady Xiao Wei nodded, sighed, and opened the package, which contained the stillborn child.
It was a boy who had been formed long ago, the size of a grown man's palm, small and bloodshot.
The third wife, Duan Shi, almost cried out when she saw her. She hurriedly covered her lips, panicked in her heart.
The old lady Wei sighed, "Find someone to bury it."
I didn't have time to be born, and I didn't have a name, so I couldn't be buried in the ancestral grave. I can only find a place to bury it outside the ancestral grave.
The eldest lady Xiao Wei nodded, and said softly: "After this incident, Dalang's wife is very poor physically. I'm afraid she won't be able to have children within three or two years."
When everyone heard this, they were all silent.
The old lady Wei said: "They will have children sooner or later. As a mother-in-law, don't put too much pressure on Dalang's wife."
The eldest lady Xiao Wei nodded, "I understand. I dare not put pressure on her."
Jia Shi's health is so poor, the eldest wife Xiao Wei Shi is afraid that she will frighten Jia Shi to death if she looks at her.
Therefore, in front of Jia Shi, the eldest wife Xiao Wei always speaks softly.
However, Jia was destined to have no children, and the child that was not easy to conceive was still gone.
Gu Rui held Jia Shi's hand and remained silent the whole time.
The old lady Wei comforted him: "There will be children in the future, I want to open it."
Gu Rui raised his head, his eyes were empty and blank. Then, he looked at the bundle on the table.
The eldest lady Xiao Wei became nervous for a while, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, someone will be arranged to bury the child properly."
Gu Rui nodded, and said hoarsely, "Prepare a good coffin for the child."
The eldest lady Xiao Wei gritted her teeth and agreed.
Gu Rui said again: "I want to see him. I haven't seen him yet."
The eldest lady Xiao Wei frowned, "Don't look at it, at least keep a thought for yourself."
Then, she asked the mother-in-law to take the burden out in a hurry.
Gu Rui blankly watched the mother-in-law rush out with her bundle, as if she hadn't reacted yet.
When the old lady Wei saw this, she was very worried.
"Da Lang, you can't follow your wife's current situation."
Gu Rui nodded, "Don't worry, Madam, my grandson can hold on."
The old lady Wei sighed, "I didn't let you hold on. You have to think about it yourself before you can comfort your daughter-in-law. Otherwise, the two of you cry at each other, will your wife's body be able to bear it?"
Gu Rui held back his tears and nodded heavily, "I see. I'll wash my face before coming back."
After speaking, Gu Rui hurried out.
The old lady Wei shook her head and said, "This child has a heavy heart."
The eldest lady Xiao Wei said expressionlessly: "I am a mother and there is nothing I can do about it."
Gu Rui and Jia Shi are childhood sweethearts and have a very good relationship.
However, Mrs. Jia has been weak since she was a child. When talking about marriage, Mrs. Wei, the eldest wife, did not agree to the marriage.
It is just that Jia is worried that he will not be able to bear children, and he will not be able to bear the burden of the eldest daughter-in-law and clan wife.
But she couldn't hold back her son, and the old Hou Ye nodded, so she could only hold her nose and accept the marriage.
Jia Shi came in, as expected, just as she worried, it was not easy to give birth.
After finally getting pregnant, this is the case again.
The old lady Wei knows exactly what the eldest lady Wei is thinking.
She said, "Speak up if you have something to say."
Everyone filed out of the bedroom.
There are maids and kumquats guarding the bedroom, so there is no need to worry about accidents.
Seeing everyone coming out, the eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, hurriedly asked, "Is the eldest young mistress all right?"
The old lady Wei said: "I originally invited you to visit the mansion, but in the end, you were worried together. The child was not saved, but fortunately, the adult's life is safe. Take care of your body, and you will be able to give birth in two years."
Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "That's good, that's good."
Mrs. Xie said: "After the young lady gets well, I still have to go to the temple to worship. Before I was pregnant, I went to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva, so that I could give birth to four children smoothly."
"It's time to go to the temple to worship." The third wife Duan echoed.
It is very unlucky to lose a child after Chinese New Year.
The old lady Wei was noncommittal, "Let's talk about the matter of worshiping the Bodhisattva. It's all right here. You are all tired all day, so go back and have a good rest. Especially Xiaojiu, who stayed here for a day with Mei girl, even missed the banquet .”
Gu Jiu stood up and said, "Thank you, Madam, for your concern, my grandniece is fine, she's not too tired."
The old lady Wei said with a stern face: "You are a girl, you should take care of your health. Don't be arrogant just because you are young. Go back and rest."
Gu Jiu nodded, "I listen to the old lady."
Mrs. Zhang said: "Old Madam, let's take our leave first. We will come to visit Eldest Young Mistress tomorrow."
"Go back! The reception is not good today, and I will buy another banquet tomorrow as an apology."
Everyone went out of the inner courtyard, passed the second gate, and came to the outer courtyard to take a carriage.
When Gu Jiu got into the carriage, he saw Imperial Physician Hu.
Physician Hu is massaging her.
Gu Jiu shook her head slightly at Imperial Physician Hu, her meaning was very clear, don't say anything about her.
There are so many people today, she has never been able to find a chance to talk to Imperial Physician Hu in private, so she can only express her attitude in this way.
Physician Hu nodded to Gu Jiu, telling Gu Jiu not to worry.
Gu Jiu felt relieved, got into the carriage, and set off to return to the residence.
After leaving the gate of the Hou's Mansion, he arrived at the Gu's Mansion within a few steps.
After getting off the carriage at the second door of the Gu Mansion, Xie said: "The eldest young mistress is unlucky, the child is so old, and she didn't keep it."
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, said: "The youngest mistress has been in poor health since she was a child. It is not surprising to have this result."
Xie said with emotion: "Fortunately, all the girls in our family are in good health, oh, except the second girl. The second girl has been soaked in medicine jars since she was a child. But fortunately, there is already a marriage, and it was appointed by His Majesty, so there is no need to worry about any accidents." .”
Gu Jiu turned her head to look at Xie Shi, and panicked, this matter is going to be blamed on her too
