Yueniang caught the lady's gaze and didn't understand it for a moment. She couldn't ask more questions in front of Mrs. Zhang, so she had to endure the suspicion in her heart.
Mrs. Zhang thought about the past days, clenched her sleeves tightly, and sighed: "It was Miss Six who took pity on me."
Qingguan thought for a moment and said, "My aunt gave me an embroidered handkerchief. Qingguan has nothing to give in return. Yueniang, go get the embroidery bag next to my bed."
The lady actually wanted to give Zhang an embroidered bag... Yueniang and Chunni were both shocked at the same time.
The former hurriedly entered the back room, took out the embroidery bag, and handed it to Mrs. Zhang.
"This is a gift from the ancestors of the Jiang family. It contains some Chinese herbal medicine. The weather is getting hotter. Wearing it around you can prevent mosquitoes and repel insects. Auntie, please accept it."
Mrs. Zhang didn't think much about it, just took it as Miss Six's return gift, sat down for a while, and then left with a wink.
Mrs. Zhang left, and Yueniang and Chunni hurriedly surrounded her.
Qingguan knew that he couldn't hide it from them.
That embroidered bag looks inconspicuous, but in fact it has a lot of things inside. They are a mixture of precious herbs, which can repel mosquitoes and insects, calm the nerves, strengthen the heart and lungs, refresh the mind, and nourish the internal organs.
Qingguan was kicked into the river by King Shou last year and her internal organs were damaged, so she took Cao Ziang's prescription and made such an embroidered bag, which she wore by her side all the time.
"She is pregnant for forty days."
Yueniang and Chunni were stunned. The princess had not been pregnant for six years, but just a few months after Zhang entered the family, she became pregnant. It was really a good fortune.
If she can give birth to a son and a half daughters in the future, Zhang will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life. It’s just that from the princess’s side…
Qingguan knew what they were thinking, so she picked up the handkerchief, looked at it twice, and sighed: "The princess will probably tolerate it."
"Why is this?" they both asked at the same time.
"My father has no children after his death. If he has no children, he cannot inherit the family business. Although the Gu family has exhausted all the money, it still has some wealth. How can the princess take away all the family property?"
"But in this case, Aunt Zhang's mother will only be under the status of the princess in the future because of her son. Moreover, if she really gives birth to a son, the son will inherit the father's property in the future, and the second wife's property will not all fall into the hands of Aunt Zhang and her son." Yueniang After all, it is the person who has experienced the matter and thinks very far.
Qingguan said smartly and calmly: "If I predict correctly, once the princess knows that Zhang is pregnant, she will definitely use the trick of 'removing the mother and leaving the child', or she will keep the child by her side to feed her."
Yueniang and Chunni shuddered. With the princess's methods, this kind of underhanded trick is definitely possible.
The second master was originally a ruthless and unjust person, and he accepted the Zhang family in order to continue the family line. With a son, he wouldn't care about Zhang's life or death at all. The fate of the Zhang family cannot escape the word death.
Qingguan lowered her eyes, with a hint of indifference in her tone, "Firstly, she has never harmed me; secondly, I want to use her to fight the princess. Therefore, I will ensure that their mother and son are safe."
Yueniang sighed: "Ms. Zhang seems to be knowledgeable, courteous, gentle and virtuous. I wonder if the princess has any other tricks."
"No matter how many things there are, this embroidered bag will first ensure her safety and give birth to the child, which can be regarded as repaying the favor of this veil. What will happen in nine months' time is one step at a time."
Chunni said crisply: "Miss, the few rare medicinal materials in the embroidered bag are enough to buy a set of excellent jewelry. If the two handkerchiefs are exchanged, we will suffer a big loss."
Qingguan glanced at her sideways. This girl is really sharp-tongued and stubborn. She clearly wants to give up, but she still pretends to be reluctant.
When Chunni saw the young lady looking at her, she stuck out her tongue and said, "If Yin Deng is here, I'm afraid I'll have to say that the young lady doesn't know how to scheme."
Qingguan said with a straight face: "Don't worry, in the future when you two go out, I will need the man to give you a generous gift before I let you go. I am good at such calculations."
Seeing the young lady making fun of her, Chunni blushed, opened her almond-shaped eyes, and closed the curtain to escape.
Yueniang stepped forward and said: "Miss, there is news from Jin Mansion. After that night, Mr. Shi went to the tea shop and wine shop every day, sitting there for half a day. Uncle Fu couldn't make up his mind, so he asked Miss to decide. "
The tea shop and wine shop is the most crowded and lively place. When Shi Minwei went there, he must be paying attention to the news in the public. It seemed that he really took her words to heart.
Qingguan whispered: "It's okay, let him go, I have enough money, don't let him lose money outside."
"Yes, miss."
"Have you heard anything about the Su family?"
"Go back to Miss, Wanhualou and Tongrentang are both inquiring, but there is no news yet."
Qingguan pinched the handkerchief and nodded silently.
The next morning.
Hua Yang had a smile on his lips and spring in his eyes. As soon as he helped Aunt Tan into the Shou'an Hall, a maid hurriedly came to report that Aunt Zhang had suddenly fainted in the morning.
Hua Yang had a romantic night with a man last night and was feeling very proud. When he heard that Mrs. Zhang had fainted, he sneered in his heart. I'm afraid it's a deliberate trick because I haven't touched a man's body in a few days!
She lazily said: "Take the note from the Gu family and ask the doctor to come."
The little maid responded and walked away.
Hua Yang entered the Shou'an Hall. Except for the two concubines who were banned, all the female relatives in the room were present.
Everyone paid their respects to Mrs. Wei, and the maid served tea.
Mrs. Wei asked about some trivial matters in the house, and Mrs. Zhou answered them clearly.
Wei was extremely satisfied and was about to let everyone leave when she saw the housekeeper coming in with a happy face.
"Congratulations, madam, congratulations to the princess, Mrs. Zhang is pregnant, almost a month and a half away."
There was only a crisp sound, and the tea cup in Huayang's hand shattered.
Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, pinched her nose deliberately and smiled: "Brothers and sisters, what a great joy. God bless, Mrs. Zhang is pregnant with this brother, so that the second brother can hold his son. "Ms. Wei didn't care about the rubbish at Huayang's feet, and couldn't help but said: "Quick, hurry up and let people serve you carefully. If you are missing anything, just ask them to come to my place to get it. You are really smart. I will go there on the 15th. After paying homage to Guanyin, the good news came as soon as the month was over. Second girl, please help me go to the Buddhist hall to teach the Bodhisattva.
Thank you. "
Qingguan watched the second sister helping his wife to leave, and the corner of his eye fell on the princess.
She was born more charming, but after being nourished by men, her whole body exuded the enchanting charm unique to mature women. At this moment, that enchanting face drooped down, and it actually looked a bit old.
No wonder she was deeply affected. In the past six years, she had consulted doctors and prayed to gods countless times, but there was no movement in her stomach.
However, Mrs. Zhang got pregnant just a few days after she entered the house. This made her look as haggard as a widow.
Huayang turned into an eggplant battered by frost. Seeing that her whole body felt comfortable, Mrs. Zhou couldn't wait to make up for it with a knife.
"Brothers and sisters, pregnant women are the most delicate. You can avoid having to worry about morning and dusk in the future to avoid fetal turbulence. Everyone in the courtyard should also pay more attention to what they eat, so as not to let anyone have bad intestines. People have done something wrong.”
Zhou's eyebrows were raised high, and she suppressed the joy in her heart, and said: "It is not easy for my second brother to have a son, but you must not be careless. Hey, I know you feel bad, but what can you do? If you give My second brother has a son... There is no need to be so embarrassed, just bear with it."
These words were not meant as persuasion. Instead, they were like knives, stabbing into Hua Yang's heart, making her heart and liver hurt.
Not being able to give birth to a son was the biggest pain in Huayang's life. She covered her chest with her hands, her face as pale as paper, and she still had the look and feel she had when she first came in. Mrs. Zhou seemed to want to wipe away the suffocation she had suffered these days, and added insult to injury: "They say tolerance is a knife to the head. Sister-in-law, I can't help you with anything else. There is also a new tea set in the room." Cup, go back and ask the maid to bring it to your brothers and sisters. It also saves them from breaking one today and one tomorrow.
Complete set. "
Huayang is such a naughty person.
Just now I was shocked when I heard the news, but now I woke up. With a move of my hand, I picked up the cup in front of Mrs. Guan and smashed it at Mrs. Zhou's feet.
Zhou was unable to dodge and was splashed with tea.
"Sister-in-law, I'd better keep the blue and white tea cup for myself. No matter how bad I Huayang is, a man can still control me. If I ask him to go east, he will never dare to go west, let alone buy a house outside and raise a family. Actor."
"you… "
Zhou's smile froze, and her face suddenly darkened.
"It's okay to raise an actor. Don't raise another bastard to take over the family property with my sister-in-law and your two sons. However, I can't blame you for this. My sister-in-law, you are so old."
"Zhao Huayang, you... you... bully others too much!" Mrs. Zhou was so angry that her whole body trembled, and her gloomy face suddenly turned dark.
Hua Yang calmly said: "Sister-in-law, you must not be angry. When a woman is angry, she gets older quickly. You said that you are almost forty, why would you be angry with an actor? No matter how young the actor is, , No matter how beautiful and enchanting she is, she is just an actor, how can she compare with you!"
After saying that, Hua Yang sneered twice, flicked his sleeves, and walked away.
When she reached the door, she paused, and the words she spoke were both vicious and bitter. "A little aunt is held in my hand. I will live if I want her, die if I want her. It is difficult for an actor to escape from the palm of my hand. It is difficult for an actor to win the heart of a man, live alone, and be the grandmother of the house. Live a good life, if there is anything you can't think about, I'm afraid I'll be pissed to death, sister-in-law, you have to be safe.
Heavy! "
"you you… "
Mrs. Zhou rolled her eyes and couldn't breathe, so she fell straight down.
Mrs. Guan exclaimed and hurriedly supported her. The maids were giving him water and pinching him, and they were in a hurry for a while.
Qingguan was shocked by this shot and was stunned. She never thought that the best way to fight in a house is to be simple, crude and direct.
Don't beat around the bush, pick up the knife and stab the enemy directly in the heart. One knife can't stab him twice, two knives can't stab him three times. There is always one knife that can kill him directly.
Zhou was stabbed so hard that she couldn't even resist, and collapsed directly to the ground. She could only breathe out, not in. Qingguan secretly stretched out his thumb to express his admiration for the princess's strong house fighting ability, master!
