Mrs. Shen's spirit is getting better these days, she looked at the daughter-in-law and grand-daughter in a room with a smile on her face: "For a while, everyone is also scared, and it will be fine when Nong'er comes back!"
Mrs. Shen has lost weight a lot these days, and now she smiles and says, "Yes, when Nong'er comes back, this family is like a home. During these days, everyone has suffered so hard to hold on!"
For a time, in the room, Shen Yunong’s wives and concubines were all cheerful, but Liu Qiqiao, who had been sitting in the corner, calmly and silently, Lan Xiang stood behind her. I know why her face is sad, because in the morning, her master's Yue Xiner arrived.
Although Liu Qiqiao didn’t know exactly how the round room was rounded up, she still knew some things about giving birth to children, because when the stepmother gave birth to younger siblings, she was already sensible. In the words of the two elder sisters , She also knows.
When Yue Xin'er came, she was not pregnant with a child.
This made Liu Qiqiao feel a little upset.
Although she didn't have much joy with that child, and didn't expect it, she was still a child herself, and didn't think so, so she became a mother in a daze.
However, for more than half a month, she has been thinking that she might have a child in her stomach, but suddenly it disappeared, which still annoyed her.
Lan Xiang looked at the master with a look of unhappy, and didn't persuade her. In this whole room, only her master was very dissatisfied, and everyone else looked happy.
Lan Xiang just wanted to remind the master not to let others see her upset. At this moment, Mrs. Shen, who was sitting above, suddenly said, "The seventh auntie, if you look unhappy, what's the matter?"
Liu Qiqiao was originally in an unobtrusive corner. When Madam Pian Shen was looking around, she could see her disharmony at a glance. Madam Shen didn’t like Liu Qiqiao. Now, I see herself again. Her son came out with such a good thing, but she sat there with a sad face, and asked.
Everyone noticed Liu Qiqiao in the corner. During this period of time, these aunts knew that the old lady sent Liu Qiqiao to prison for two nights during the period when her husband was detained.
The women's mind is that there will be trouble if nothing happens. Now, when she hears Madam Shen's face and her tone of irritation, she has all the thoughts of watching a good show. The fifth aunt Zhou Haitang sneered and said slowly: "Aunt Qiniang shouldn't be unhappy, since the night of her marriage, the Xianggong was arrested. Now, I can finally see the Xianggong again.
It's okay if she didn't mention this. When she talked about this, Madam Shen was even more unhappy, and she snorted coldly, "Broom Star" she whispered quietly, turning her head and not looking at Liu Qiqiao, so as not to get confused.
Liu Qiqiao was plainly reprimanded, and unable to argue, had to lower his face lower.
Everyone sat there chatting and laughing for a while, fearing to disturb the old lady's rest, they retreated one after another.
Liu Qiqiao was at the end, until all the people in front were gone, she was lucky enough to leave. She didn't want to be up there but Mrs. Shen stopped her: "Qiaoer, wait a minute..."
Liu Qiqiao was stunned and stopped. Mrs. Shen smiled and stood up: "I have been sitting for a while with my son. It is a bit annoying. I am old now, and the excitement can't last. It’s awkward, I just feel a headache, now it’s finally quiet!"
When she was about to walk down, Liu Qiqiao hurriedly stepped forward and held the old lady's hand. Mrs. Shen nodded with a smile, looked at her and said, "You accompany me for a walk in this room, move your muscles and bones!"
When Liu Qiqiao got the order, he held the old lady Shen's arm and walked around in this room.
The house of the old lady is very big. Seeing that the masters are the masters, the maids moved away the chairs they were sitting on one by one and moved out of the original empty space. Liu Qiqiao helped the old lady. Take a walk under the house.
After walking a few steps, Mrs. Shen said lovingly: "Qiao'er, I also think you have something on your mind. Is there something wrong?"
"Ah? No, old lady!" Liu Qiqiao was nervous, thinking that Mrs. Shen also wanted to talk about herself.
Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "You see what's going on with your frowning eyebrows? Talk to grandma, don't hold it in your heart! Maybe grandma can help you!"
Liu Qiqiao hesitated, and walked a few more steps, feeling the caring eyes of Mrs. Shen always fall on her body, she couldn't help it, and put it together: "If you return to the old lady, it's seven. Coincidentally, I can't help the old man's affection, I can't help my kindness!
"Huh?" Mrs. Shen thought that something important had happened, so she stopped: "What's the matter? Qiao'er, you can talk to grandma!"
"That..." Liu Qiqiao didn't care much. When asked by the old lady, she felt that her sin was unforgivable. She was about to cry out on her face. She said timidly: "Back to the old lady, I... Yue Xin'er is here..."
The old lady snorted, a little strange, "What happened then?"
Liu Qiqiao blushed: "Well, I, I didn't have a child. Doesn't the old lady blame me?"
After saying this, she wringed the veil in her hands, and her head dropped to her chest.
Mrs. Shen thought for a while and realized the meaning of this. The old lady couldn't help but feel funny, and she really laughed. She smiled and shook her head, pointing at Liu Qiqiao, seeing her face down and she couldn't see it. , Shook his hand and laughed for a long time, while Mother Zhou also covered her mouth and smiled.
Liu Qiqiao heard the old lady laugh, and she was a little at a loss. She raised her eyes to see the old lady who was overwhelmed with joy. She was not angry. She was a little relieved, but the old lady laughed and embarrassed her again. I had to twist my veil and bit my lips, not daring to speak.
"You, what a solid-eyed girl!" Old Madam Shen laughed enough, and then said, she walked over to a table and sat down, Liu Qiqiao hurriedly followed, and Madam Shen motioned to her for a drink. Liu Qiqiao took a step ahead of Mother Zhou and was busy pouring a bowl of tea for the old lady.
Mrs. Shen took the tea that Liu Qiqiao had handed over, took a sip, and pointed to the other side: "Qiqiao sit down!"
Liu Qiqiao shook his head: "Qiqiao dare not!"
"Sit down, Qiqiao, there are no outsiders in this room. You don't have to talk about those rules. Sit down and talk to grandma. You kid, you will make grandma happy!" said Mrs. Shen.
Liu Qiqiao felt that the old lady was so inexplicable, and he didn't tell any jokes, so why made the old lady laugh for so long.
Mother Zhou came over and showed Liu Qiqiao also tea. Liu Qiqiao hurriedly said thank you.
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Qiao'er, are you eager to give birth to a child for Nong'er?"
Liu Qiqiao nodded, feeling that the old lady was about to laugh again, she shook her head shyly, and said: "It's not that I am anxious, but the old lady called me to give birth. I didn't get pregnant. I feel sorry for the old lady!"
Mrs. Shen smiled and pointed to Liu Qiqiao to Mother Zhou, and said to Mother Zhou: "Look, I'll just say this child is alright, how honest!"
Mother Zhou also smiled, nodded and looked at Liu Qiqiao with a smile.
Mrs. Shen smiled and shook Liu Qiqiao's hand: "Of course grandma hopes that you will give birth to Nong'er. I have long wanted to have a great grandson, but ah, this is not a matter of having a baby overnight. The gift from God is fate. Over the years, I have been looking forward to it..."
Liu Qiqiao looked up and looked at the kindness of the old lady Shen's look on her face. She was not so timid, and the old lady continued to say: "Qiqiao, your father-in-law is about to come out, are you happy?"
Mate? Liu Qiqiao remembered Shen Yunong's face, remembering his tight arms when he was holding herself, she blushed and nodded silently.
"Good Qiqiao, as long as Nong'er comes out, what are you afraid of? Wouldn't it be easy for you to give birth to him? Hey, you stupid child!" Mrs. Shen was very happy and in a mood Okay, now, I am happy to see everything. Looking at Liu Qiqiao, I also feel that the more this child looks, the more attractive he is, and the more he looks, the more he likes: "You are so well-behaved and sensible, and Nong'er will definitely love you in the future!
Shen Yunong also said that, Liu Qiqiao's face instantly became redder, and his head drooped lower.
Coming out of Mrs. Shen's house, Liu Qiqiao no longer frowned. Lan Xiang took her. Seeing that it was still early, the two of them walked back from the garden.
From the front hall to the back hall, and then to the back house, the Shen Mansion has a three-story courtyard. The last floor occupies the largest area with a large garden in the middle.
There is a big lake dug out inside. It is summer, lotus leaves, water birds, wild ducks and mandarin ducks on the water, and there are some big carps in the lake. I don’t know if there are thousands or hundreds of them. When they swam to the surface, a group of people got together. They had been fed and cooked, and they were not afraid of seeing people. They all swam to the surface for food.
There is also a pavilion in the middle of the lake. Along the lake, facing the pavilion, there is also a big stage. Lan Xiang said that before the mansion, the masters of the house would always call the theater troupes for birthdays or major festivals. A while ago, Shen Yunong also said that if she wants to raise a theater troupe in the house, Mrs. Shen loves to watch theaters and wants to play it specifically for her family.
These have not acted yet, but something has happened.
Now, looking at the big stage from a distance, there are three floors, one floor protruding above the water, Liu Qiqiao can only stare at it. With such a big stage, she has only watched the rich gentleman in the village, she can’t imagine. When the lanterns first came on, the stage was brightly lit, the actors on it with heavy makeup, rap, sitting and playing, and the water reflected the bustling, sitting on the opposite shore, how dazzling brilliance should it be!
Just imagination has made her yearning.
She really wanted to live like that in the Shen family.
Lan Xiang brought the fish food to the master, and smiled and said, "Master, when the young master comes back, will you change your yard? Our yard is too small!"
