Maid, "Yes."
After the doctor diagnosed the pulse and prescribed medicine, Aunt Ruan lay on the bed a little weakly and said angrily: "Fortunately, the child is fine, but he has fetal gas. He needs to be nursed back to health."
Her plain white hands gently caressed her belly, her eyes sparkling.
The maid tucked the quilt for her, with distressed eyes, "My aunt is a blessed person, and God will never let her lose her child. But this young master is too abominable! He can actually do this at such a young age. To do something like this.”
Aunt Ruan's eyes darkened, "I sent someone to my study to invite someone."
The maid lowered her head and said, "Please, but the woman in the courtyard said that Aunt Zhang's maid went directly to the gate to stop the person, and now... the person has already gone to Zhuxi Courtyard."
"What a wonderful Zhang Ruoruo she is. She really thinks that she is that child's biological mother. That child..."
She suddenly remembered what Brother Cheng said when he rushed towards her. She sat up with her weak body, clenched the maid's hand, and said urgently: "Do you still remember that Brother Cheng pushed me?" What did you say before?"
The maid thought for a while, "He seemed to say, yes, he said that his aunt bullied his mother!" The maid also remembered it and was very excited.
Aunt Ruan twitched her lips, closed her eyes and smiled: "It seems that when I went to Madam's yard that day, Madam was very interested at first, but then let me go because I didn't guess the cause and effect. This Mei Mei The government is really bold, actually having an illegitimate child before the wife has even married..."
She also figured out a lot of things that she hadn't figured out before. For example, my father and Zhang Ruoruo had only been together for a few days, but he showed that he liked her very much and had a deep affection for her.
It turned out that they were old lovers...
And Brother Cheng, who is obviously his step-son, is not on good terms with the mistress of the house. Instead, he is as affectionate with an aunt as if he were his own mother and son. It turns out that he is his biological son...
From this point of view, Madam must know the truth, but she can really tolerate it...
The maid peeked at the door warily, then turned around and said cautiously, "Shh, my aunt needs to take good care of herself now. Don't tell anyone about this."
"I know, I'm afraid the old lady and everyone else know about this." She smiled mockingly, "I mean, why did you adopt a child from a side branch and raise her more pampered than your biological child? It's so... ....”
Dirty, shameless.
"Thanks to you today. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to save my child." She said, holding the maid's hand, with a very sincere expression on her face.
The maid was flattered and shook her head quickly, "I was just a little maid in the past. Fortunately, my aunt appreciates me and I can be your eldest maid. Otherwise, I would still be bullied in the tea room right now."
Aunt Ruan smiled softly and pointed in the direction of the dressing cabinet, "Go back and get two taels of silver from my wooden box. This is my reward for you. You did a good job today."
The maid saluted happily, "Thank you, Auntie, I will serve you and the future young master well."
After hearing her words, Aunt Ruan was naturally overjoyed, her smiling eyes curved into a beautiful crescent moon.
After waiting for a long time, just when Ruan Yinger thought that I would not come, suddenly the mother-in-law at the door informed me that I was here.
Aunt Ruan pushed herself out of bed, and the maid quickly put on her shoes and socks.
The door creaked open.
She smiled and gave a blessing, "I'm here."
Mei Yuanqing stepped forward and gently helped her up with his hands, and said softly: "No need to be polite. You have been wronged today. Come on, sit down quickly."
After saying that, he gently hugged her and sat on the bed. This was the first time in a long time that Aunt Ruan was treated like this by him. She was very happy. She looked at the people around her with slightly red cheeks as she walked around, only seeing half of the other person's handsome face. , his heart was already beating fast, and he turned his head shyly.
The two sat down next to each other affectionately, and Mei Yuanqing suddenly said, "It's Brother Cheng's fault today. I have already taught him a lesson. He is... still young now, so don't get to know him." ." After a pause, "Now you just need to give birth to the child in your belly. If you want to eat or want anything, you can tell me as soon as possible."
These words made Aunt Ruan's soft and shy heart instantly start to cool down.
She turned her head to look at the man beside her in disbelief, her lips trembling, "Are you prepared to...just not pursue it?"
Although he knew that brother Mingcheng was Mei Yuanqing's biological son, even if the punishment was not too severe, Aunt Ruan never expected that he would expose it with such a gentle sentence, and she also felt that it was in her belly. His children...
He was a little too biased.
When Mei Yuanqing heard this, the gentleness in his eyes gradually disappeared, and his voice became indifferent, "I have already reprimanded him for today's matter, and he knows that he was wrong, and he will definitely not attack you again. Why do you have to be so aggressive. Besides... ....I heard someone say that the child in your belly is fine."
This short sentence was like a sharp blade, piercing Aunt Ruan's heart and lungs.
Her chest felt stagnant, and she felt a little out of breath.
Mei Yuanqing saw that he didn't speak for a long time, with his head lowered and could not see his expression clearly. He thought she was still angry, and his tone suddenly became impatient.
He suddenly stood up and said, "It's getting late. Let's rest early."
Then he left here without stopping.
"Master......"
I don't know if Mei Yuanqing didn't hear it, or if he heard it and didn't want to pay attention to it, his footsteps gradually moved away without any pause.
"Aunt..." The maid stepped forward cautiously. Seeing her lost look, she didn't know how to comfort her.
"Well, I can see clearly now that he doesn't have me in his heart at all. In the past, I could still deceive myself and find countless excuses for him to convince myself. But now I can see clearly that Mei Yuanqing has no intention at all. .”
"In this house, the only one I can rely on is myself. And the child in my belly." She lowered her head, tears falling on her skirt one by one, making a pool of water stains.
"Auntie, don't be sad. You have to take care of yourself now. As long as the child in your belly is born, his status will naturally be different."
Aunt Ruan's slender fingers clenched her skirt tightly until her fingers caught wrinkles on it, and then she let go.
A few low laughs.
Soon the news leaked out in the yard, and everyone said that Aunt Ruan was pregnant.
Her place in the house suddenly became a hot stove, and everyone wanted to burn it.
After all, who doesn't know that what she is carrying is Mei Yuanqing's biological son. If it's a girl, that's fine. But if it's a boy, Brother Cheng's status as adopted step-son may be jeopardized.
