It was Aunt Ruan who opened her mouth, saying that she wanted to raise a baby as an excuse, so she closed the door and thanked guests, and she was quiet for a few days.
But none of the maids in her house would be looked down upon when they went out.
It's windy when I walk.
Aunt Ruan's face was also glowing in the house. She was well-fed these days, and nutritious food and other things came into her house as if they were free.
"Now in this mansion, our aunt is the most favored. Even though the one from Hongxia Pavilion has the title of Madam, she is not favored by me. Even the one under my knee is not her. If it's not yours, then it's not of the same mind. I think our aunt is the happiest."
Aunt Ruan's cheerful expression suddenly turned cold, and she scolded: "You unruly thing, what nonsense are you talking about? Madam is madam, no one can change this. From now on, speak more respectfully, and be listened to by outsiders." I went there and thought I was so ambitious."
The maid looked timid and said in a low voice: "Yes, I know I was wrong. Auntie, don't be angry."
Juan'er, who was the most favored one around Aunt Ruan, happened to come in and said to the maid with a smile, "Now you go outside to do your business. Auntie is not in a good mood when she is pregnant. We know you are doing your best for your auntie."
The maid wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes before retreating with a grateful look on her face.
Aunt Ruan glanced at her angrily and twitched her lips, "Listen to what these servants are saying. Even Madam dared to arrange it. She will not be allowed to go to heaven in the future."
Juan'er came forward with Smile and gently kneaded her swollen legs for her.
Aunt Ruan has been able to sit steadily for months, but she still has a lot of problems all over her body. Her whole body aches during the day, and her feet are not as swollen as before.
Even my face has some spots.
No matter how carefully they maintained it, it was of no use.
"My aunt is a very lucky person, why should I meet this little maid? Now, I just hope that our young master will be born soon. A child who looks like me and my aunt will definitely be very beautiful."
Speaking of the child, Aunt Ruan showed a loving smile on her face and gently stroked her belly with her bare hands, "I hope so."
After a pause, he said sternly: "Please restrain the servants in the courtyard and don't become arrogant because of temporary pride. Besides, our enemy is not Madam, but the one from Zhuxi Courtyard. You didn't look at it. , this time we put in so much effort, but she just stayed in confinement. I see now that I am still protecting her. "
Juan'er pouted, "There's also the one from Wutong Garden. As long as he's here, I don't think Aunt Zhang can survive."
"Ha, since she relies on someone from Wutong Garden, why don't we get rid of him? I haven't forgotten that day he broke into my yard to harm me and almost knocked my child away. It's hateful to think about it!"
She didn't seem to be relieved, so she hit the bed hard to relieve her anger.
"If my aunt has such an idea, I have an idea..."
Aunt Ruan was immediately interested. She knew Juan'er was quick-thinking and she protected her last time, so she valued her.
"Tell me about it. If it works, I won't treat you badly."
Juaner smiled and said, "I don't ask my aunt to give me anything, I just want to serve my aunt well."
Hearing this, her expression softened, "I know you are a good person."
Juaner looked around, then leaned close to her ear and whispered: "Since he...why don't we..."
Aunt Ruan's eyes lit up the more she listened, and after a while her mouth opened slightly, "Is this really feasible?"
"Auntie, if you succeed this time, I will assure you that you will have no worries."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you."
A few days later, the snow stopped falling outside. Although it was still cold, it was much better than before. It was a good day.
Looking at the scenery outside, Wei Jingwei smiled and said: "I see that today is a good day, and Hua'er has chosen a good day to get married." She turned to look at Su'er, "The things I asked you to prepare to add makeup to her are ready. Well."
Su Er: "My good lady, you've been talking about it for a few days, can I remember it? I've already prepared the Guanyin statue."
"That's good. Send someone to see what's going on over there in Wutong Garden. It's almost time to go out."
Lian'er: "My servant has prepared the soup pot and hand stove."
"It's not a cold day, even if it's not, it'll be fine."
Lian'er shook her head, "That won't work. The young lady's body is fragile and it won't work if she doesn't prepare well."
"You guys, I'm in good health. You've raised me so carefully, I'll be spoiled later." Wei Jingwei laughed at the very serious look of the two maids.
Unexpectedly, the two maids were very serious, "Miss, no matter who you are, you should pamper her."
This made her not know what to say for a moment, but it felt good to be remembered.
Someone from Wutong Garden will report back soon, but it will take a while for Brother Cheng to wait a little longer.
Wei Jingwei counted the time. If she waited any longer, she might miss the right time. Since she said she was going to add makeup, how could she be late?
Thinking of this, she kept walking and walked to the front of Ci'an Hall. Seeing that Mei Yuanqing was there, she stepped forward and saluted, "Mother, it's getting late and Brother Cheng hasn't come out yet. I wonder if I can Go first, I told my grandmother and others that I’m going to add makeup to my sister.”
Mei's mother frowned, "What are you doing, Brother Cheng? It's so early in the morning."
Ying'er beside her shook her head, "I don't know, I don't know. The young master doesn't seem to be out and about today."
"That's strange. Is it because the child is snoozing?"
A maid serving tea then said cautiously: "This slave saw the young master going to Zhuxi Courtyard early this morning... I guess he is at Aunt Zhang's place now."
"Didn't I say that no one is allowed to visit her when she is in confinement? My words really fell on deaf ears!"
Seeing that Mei's mother was furious, the maid said cautiously: "This young master is going to go. The servants at the door are afraid of hurting him, so no one dares to stop him..."
Mei Yuanqing stood up and said with a cold face, "Wait a moment again, I'll call him over right away."
After saying that, he hurried towards Zhuxi Courtyard.
Wei Jingwei frowned, which was expected by her. Brother Cheng is used to being pampered in the house and doesn't take anyone's words to heart, not to mention that Mei's mother dotes on him so much that he is sure that he will not be punished.
Mei Yuanqing walked straight to Zhuxi Courtyard, his face frighteningly cold.
When he reached the door, he said coldly: "Is Brother Cheng in there?"
The maid and mother-in-law who looked after the door were trembling with fear. They didn’t know how they had offended this master, so they said cautiously: "Sir, the master is inside..."
