At this point, she didn't know how to continue.
A Cai frowned and blamed:
"A Hong, what are you thinking? You are still a girl, and you still want to raise a child for others? In my opinion, this child should be sent back to Prince Xi's Mansion. After all, she is also a child of Lengxi, and they will never Don’t want her.”
"no."
Ah Hong interrupted her anxiously, "Long Xiaomin is right. Now Yu Qiaoqiao is the Princess of Xi. Her relationship with Prince Xi is already very tense, and she is pregnant. If she suddenly sends a baby My child, where should I put the Yu family’s face? If I lose the Yu family’s face, will this child have a good life?”
"Then what should we do? We can't really let the princess raise this child. The princess has already raised a Huaiyu. If she raises this child again, the prince cannot agree!"
Listening to the two of them muttering, Luo Lan was a little at a loss.
She wanted to send this child away, but where to send it? If she was sent back to Prince Xi's Mansion, it would be a mistake to Long Xiaomin. If it happened as she feared, she would not be able to feel at ease if the child did something bad in Prince Xi's Mansion.
But if this child is left behind, then... how will he explain it to Leng Yu? He would definitely not agree.
Luo Lan sighed helplessly and said to Ah Hong:
"Let me think about the child's matter before we talk about it!"
With these words, she stood up and left Ah Hong's room.
She suddenly felt that for Long Xiaomin to be where he is today, she and Leng Yu were inseparable.
If she and Leng Yu had not lived in Longwu Villa, Leng Xi and Long Xiaomin would not have known each other. In that case, Long Xiaomin would still be the innocent eldest lady, and Long Changyun would not care about her. If he died, there would be no chance of Long Xiaomin assassinating Leng Xi and then committing suicide.
Although Long Xiaomin died miserably, in the final analysis, this child became the most innocent and pitiable person in this incident.
What should she do now? Should we send this child away ruthlessly, or should we keep her?
When thinking about this, she looked a little dazed and her walking pace was a little unsteady.
"Princess, please be careful."
A Cai kept reminding her carefully.
"Is the prince coming back today?"
"Someone came to report that he would be back to have dinner with you in the evening."
Luo Lan secretly nodded. Leng Yu has been busy these days. He heard that war is about to break out in the northwest. He is training new recruits day and night, and also studies strategies to deal with the enemy with Liu Dechang, so he has not been back for several nights. This man at home has He hasn't seen the little baby yet, Luo Lan thought. When he comes back in the evening, she will discuss with him the fate of the child.
When she was thinking about this, she came to the backyard. The nanny was playing with little Huaiyu in the yard. Little Huaiyu was sitting on the round table in the yard, chewing a piece of apple in his hand. When he saw her, he suddenly became excited. He threw away the apple in his hand and crawled towards her with a grin.
"Huaiyu..."
Luo Lan's expression suddenly became tense. She was afraid that he would fall to the ground, so in her hurry, forgetting that she was pregnant and about to give birth, she rushed over...
But at this moment, her feet were unstable and she fell directly to the ground.
"ah!"
Fortunately, her butt landed on the ground, but when her butt was sore, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach. A Cai was so frightened that she screamed loudly in panic, "Someone, come here, come here!"
The girls and servants in the mansion ran over after hearing the words. Everyone was immediately confused and didn't know what to do.
Luo Lan endured the pain in his stomach and calmly waved to everyone:
"Don't panic, help me up, go ask the midwife, and inform the prince."
Hearing this, A Cai shouted in panic:
"Go and fetch the midwife."
"Go and inform the prince quickly."
After hearing this, A Gang hurriedly ordered people to run to find the midwife, and then ordered people to go to the military camp to find the prince.
At the same time, Luo Lan was also helped into the house and lay on the bed.
Luo Lan felt that her stomach was still aching. She knew that because she had fallen just now and had fetal gas, she was afraid that the baby could not wait to come out.
After a while, the midwife hurried over. This midwife was called Aunt Zhao, whom Leng Yu had found for her a long time ago. When women gave birth in the Zhongguan family in the capital, this midwife was the one who delivered the babies, so she had a good reputation among the people. good.
Luo Lan has met this Aunt Zhao several times before, so she is very familiar with her.
Aunt Zhao came to her bedside, bowed and said:
"Princess, how do you feel?"
Luo Lan looked sideways at her and nodded with a pale face.
"It's okay. I might have to give birth prematurely. Thank you for your hard work."
Aunt Zhao shook her head hurriedly, "Princess, it offends me to say this. It is my honor to deliver your baby."
After saying this, Aunt Zhao went to wash her hands, and then began to examine Luo Lan's cervix.
Although Luo Lan felt that her stomach pain was getting more and more serious, she still endured it with all her strength. She had already checked herself and found that the baby's fetal position was normal, so there would be no problems with the birth. It was just that the little guy was too anxious.
Time passed by minute by minute, Aunt Zhao kept telling her to exert strength, and she also clenched the corner of the quilt, and her forehead was covered with sweat in pain.
An hour later, a crisp cry rang out, and the midwife smiled happily and said:
"Congratulations, Princess. Congratulations, Princess. It's a boy."
As she spoke, the midwife cut the umbilical cord, wrapped the baby and placed it next to her. Looking at the wet baby, Luo Lan suddenly felt her nose sore and tears fell down her cheeks.
When a woman gives birth to a child, it really feels like she is going through hell.
Looking at the little baby she gave birth to with her own life, she suddenly thought of Long Xiaomin's child, who was only a few days old.
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
After the midwife took care of the dirt under her body, she washed her hands and was about to take the baby out, but she stopped her.
"Aunt Zhao..."
Aunt Zhao quickly replied:
"Princess, I will call someone over to serve you."
"etc……"
Luo Lan stopped her again,
"Aunt Zhao, when you went out to announce the good news, you said that I had given birth to twins, a son and a daughter."
Hearing her unfounded words, Aunt Zhao looked at her in astonishment, "What do you mean, Princess?"
Luo Lan closed her eyes, took off a jade bracelet from her hand, and said to Aunt Zhao:
"To be honest, yesterday the girl in the house picked up a newly born baby. The baby had no father or mother. I saw that she was born pitifully, so I wanted to keep her in the house to raise, but she was obviously not right. I'm afraid Someone will bully her in the future, so I want to treat her like my own daughter."
Hearing this, Aunt Zhao, who had seen many such human accidents, was moved and shook her head vigorously.
"The princess is kind-hearted. She is doing a good deed. How can I ask for your things? It's just a matter of words."
"You take it."
Luo Lan raised the bracelet and whispered to her:
"There is one more thing you have to promise me. Don't tell anyone about this. Accept this bracelet as a promise to me."
Seeing that she insisted on giving it away, Aunt Zhao could only nod and step forward, take the bracelet, and thank her repeatedly:
"I understand. Don't worry, Princess, this matter will definitely rot in my stomach."
This Aunt Zhao is a person who doesn't talk much but works calmly. This is why Luo Lan dares to let her do this.
"Well, please go out and ask A Cai to come in, and let the rest of the people wait outside."
After Aunt Zhao nodded, she quietly stuffed the jade bracelet into her sleeve, got up and walked outside.
Although she was not sure whether what Princess Yu told her was true or not, how could she, an ordinary citizen, dare to disobey the princess? Besides, Princess Yu was a kind-hearted person, so she must have her own reasons for doing so! She had no reason not to agree, but she had already made up her mind. She would not dare to tell anyone else about this even if she died.
So, she came to the door and said to the servants outside:
"Princess Yu is happy to have twins, both sons and daughters."
