"Why did Zhang Ruoruo suddenly pour out all these words today? What do you think? If you say that there was no one around her to encourage her, I don't believe it. She has kept this secret for so long, even if she can't hold it in anymore , I also need someone to give me a gift. Secondly, the timing of Madam's search is also very good. How come it happened that at that time, the ladies with the Liu family heard about it? Haha."
After Aunt Ruan finished speaking, her expression paused, her brows furrowed, showing a bit of pain.
"Auntie, auntie, what's wrong? I feel uncomfortable somewhere." Cui'er asked hurriedly.
She waved her hand, "I just have leg cramps. I'm going to give birth soon. My legs are so swollen that I can hardly walk."
She was lying on the bed with her trouser legs rolled up. Cui Er looked around and saw that her ankles, which used to be slender, were now really swollen like a big, thick carrot.
She took a few steps closer, squatted down slowly, and began to gently knead Aunt Ruan's calves with her hands.
After a while, she looked a little better.
"Okay Cui'er, I feel better."
Cui'er kept holding on, raised her head and asked, "Auntie, what are we going to do next? I saw Madam saying she wanted to reconcile, she wasn't lying."
"Harmony? Do you think it would be good or bad for us if Madam reconciled?"
Cui'er thought for a while, "I don't know, but I am not very old. If we divorce, I will definitely remarry in the future."
Unexpectedly, Aunt Ruan shook her head, her eyes full of sarcasm.
What she didn't say was that even if the wife reconciled and divorced, who would marry their daughter here if they knew what happened? Even if she is willing to marry, she must be from a family background far inferior to that of the Mei family.
At that time, she had a child and had a firm footing. Who would be afraid of a lady with a poor family background?
.....................
"Longan...longan..."
Zhang Ruoruo stayed in the yard until midnight, but no one came to bring food or water, and he suddenly felt a little discouraged.
Thinking again of what the maid said at the door today, her hands could not help but tremble slightly.
Mei Yuanqing is seriously...so ruthless!
Guiyuan hurriedly walked out of nowhere and saw Zhang Ruoruo sitting on a chair angrily. She hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
Zhang Ruoruo opened his eyes and said, "Go find Brother Cheng for me, and you can secretly find a way out."
Brother Cheng is her son!
But she finally gave birth to a child after ten months of pregnancy, and he was a filial child who was always thinking about her.
For this reason alone, Mei Yuanqing, who currently only has one son, would not dare to take her life!
She believed it.
All she has to do now is wait! As long as she waits, she will be able to get out sooner or later. Wei Jingwei is angry, and what's the use of the Mei family being angry? She said it anyway, can they still kill her?
If Wei Jingwei wanted to reconcile, it was best for Mei Yuanqing to abandon her. As time went by, she would always be able to coax him well and coax him to let her sit in that position.
It's not like she hasn't heard anyone say it today. From now on, Brother Cheng will be a concubine, not the status he had before.
But what about the concubine?
Isn’t he still the only child in the house?
As for Aunt Ruan, whether the child will be born or not is a matter of debate whether it will be a boy or a girl!
From now on, the child will only be in her name, and she will be able to get along with her son openly, without the need to be secretive anymore.
As long as she holds her son in her hands, she has nothing to fear.
This is what she relies on!
.....................
Late at night, the candles in Hongxia Pavilion were still burning brightly.
Wei Jingwei sat at the table, looking at the dancing candlelight, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.
Su'er and Lian'er were waiting on both sides.
Soon someone came to the door to report that Xia Ning was here and wanted to see Madam.
Wei Jingwei was slightly startled, "What time is it now? Why is this child here at this time?"
The maid waiting outside the courtyard usually had few words to say to Wei Jingwei. At this moment, she only said pleasantly: "Maybe Xia Ning knows what happened to you today, madam, and came here to have a look. The child is a kindhearted person." Illustrated."
Wei Jingwei pondered for a moment, "Let him come in and talk, it's cold outside."
The maid went out to deliver a message, and within a moment she saw a little boy walking in.
When he got to the center, he bowed to him and said, "Young man, I have met Madam. She is fine."
Today Xu asked Su Er to announce the news of her illness outside. Xia Ning probably heard about it and asked her if she was okay as soon as she entered the door.
Wei Jingwei paused and said with a smile: "Didn't you see everything? I'm fine now."
Only then did Xia Ning dare to raise her head, and after seeing that she was indeed not like what was rumored outside, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Ning has been missing for the past few days, and his height has grown a lot. His whole body has grown like bamboo shoots after the rain. The face that was still a little childish now has a somewhat gentle and jade-like appearance. His actions were also meticulous, echoing Wei Jingwei's imagination of a young man studying.
Xia Ning asked some more questions about his study and literacy, and Xia Ning answered them all. He also thanked Wei Jingwei for assigning someone to help him with the work, and said that the aunt who came over was very easy to get along with.
Now he has more time to read and write.
Wei Jingwei smiled and said nothing.
In the evening, Brother Cheng opened his eyes hazily in the middle of the night, rubbed them, and saw that the boys were no longer guarding the door, and he didn't know where they were.
It seems that since my mother exposed her life experience, the servants who used to flatter and serve her carefully are no longer as dedicated as before.
He poured a bowl of tea to drink, and the water in the teapot was completely cold.
But he was thirsty, so he drank it with a frown.
I felt a little helpless and a little angry.
The room was dark, he was not tall, and he had never lit a fire before. The room was so dark that he couldn't even see where Gong Tong went.
After searching for a long time, he still couldn't find it. He needed to urinate, so he hurriedly opened the door and prepared to walk outside. When no one was around at night, he peed casually and went back to sleep.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, he found a relatively secluded place and squatted down to relieve himself.
Behind him without paying attention, a figure slightly taller than him quickly approached, and then kicked him hard on his fair and tender skin. He kicked him forward and took a big bite of mud.
"Who are you...believe it or not..."
As soon as the threatening words came to his lips, before he could say them out, the people behind him continued to punch and kick him.
He struggled to raise his head and see clearly the person in front of him, but in the dark night, how could he see clearly?
