After Xiu Xiu's incident, Song Jinyin never heard any news from the Prefect's Mansion.
I originally thought that Feng Qiyu would come to the embroidery workshop again, either to speak or to suppress her, but to calm her anger at being forced to let her go.
But for two days in a row, the embroidery workshop was peaceful.
Lianxiang's worries were relieved a little. When she saw the dazzling sun outside the house, she simply stopped what she was doing and took Song Jinyin to the yard.
"I've been dizzy from working so hard these past two days. I'd like to take a break while the sun is nice."
"Didn't Sister Lianxiang say that we should finish the work early and be at ease early, lest at this moment, Miss Feng suddenly make trouble with the spring shirt?"
Song Jinyin pursed her lips and smiled, but when she raised her hand, the light-colored embroidered handkerchief was no match for her pale face.
"It's useless to be afraid. I'm just too lazy to be afraid... But what's the matter with you? Your face looks lifeless, but you haven't eaten anything in the morning? I still have the little buns left over from the morning. Today's meat stuffing It's quite tender, let me warm it up for you..."
Because of these stupid words, Song Jinyin covered her mouth and ran out before anyone could finish speaking.
Lian Xiang was stunned when she saw it. When she realized what she was doing, her heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly followed.
This girl looked a little thin at first glance.
Now that I have been in the embroidery workshop for a while, I see that my energy has improved a lot and I have gained some weight. However, despite everything, I suddenly seem to be back to the way I was at the beginning.
Even weaker than before.
There were not many people like Song Ci around Lianxiang. Most of them were strong and even helped catch pigs.
Now that Leng Buding saw such a fragile girl, she couldn't help but think more.
I vomit whenever I feel like it, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary minor problem.
"Shall I help you see the doctor?"
After finally seeing Song Ci stop and take a breath, Lian Xiang looked anxious and went up to help her.
"I must have eaten nothing in the morning. I'll heat up the meat buns for you first..."
The person next to her disappeared very quickly again, and only the sound of her discomfort could be heard in the distance.
Lianxiang's hand stretched out to help her still stopped in mid-air. Suddenly, her fingertips moved unconsciously.
"What did I say that made her react so strongly?"
After a long time, the girl in front stopped, then searched around her waist, took out a piece of something and put it in her mouth.
"Song Ci, you..."
"Sister Lianxiang, don't say that, I won't eat it."
Before Lianxiang spoke, Song Ci spoke quickly, and then stopped to catch his breath.
Song Jinyin was surprised when she thought about it. She had recovered from her morning sickness for a day or two, but early this morning she discovered that she seemed to be reacting to oily and watery things.
Especially when I think of the appearance of those things in my mind, the reaction is so strong that I can't help it.
Song Jinyin touched her belly helplessly and sighed softly in her heart.
From now on, please don’t pick on this precious little thing.
"Which one?"
Lianxiang frowned and stepped forward. Seeing that her face was really ugly, she wanted to persuade her to see a doctor. However, before she could speak, the meat buns she mentioned just now suddenly came to her mind, and she suddenly realized.
"It turns out...then I'm afraid you're caught by the cold, and that's why you can't hear the smell of meat. Come on, I'll go with you to see the doctor. Just boil the medicine and drink it."
Song Jinyin waved her hand, took out the pills from her waist and gave her a look.
Her current reaction is probably something she just has to endure.
But Lianxiang never listened to advice. Seeing how pale her face was, Qi Qi couldn't help but take her arm and prepare to go out.
Song Jinyin had no choice but to grab Lianxiang with her backhand. After hesitating for a moment, she took her hand and put it on her stomach.
"Well, I have put on some weight, but you still need to see a doctor. It doesn't mean that you are strong..."
"Sister Lianxiang, I am not Fenghan."
Song Jinyin interrupted the girl next to her. When she saw that there was no one else around, she pursed her lips and lowered her head.
Some can't be said.
But when she thought that such a happy event could finally be shared with others, Song Jinyin felt an inexplicable joy in her heart.
"If it's not wind chill, what is it?"
Lianxiang's hand was still on her belly.
She felt that the girl in front of her was not as thin as she thought, but her face was pitiful, especially her watery eyes after vomiting, which were filled with the words "weak and weak".
"It's strange for you, you are strong but not fat..."
As she was talking, Lianxiang suddenly stopped and her eyes widened suddenly, "You, you have it, you have it..."
"Well, I'm pregnant."
Song Jinyin nodded, with a slight smile on her lips, and her eyes were calm and gentle.
Lianxiang was stunned for a moment and said incoherently: "Pregnant! You are actually pregnant? That person is actually willing to allow you to come out to work... Is it that person's? Bah, bah, bah, look what I'm saying. talk!"
Song Jinyin didn't ask her if she came to show friendship to her because she had met Pei Yanzhou before. She just listened quietly to the disbelief in Lian Xiang's tone, and then nodded.
"It's his child, but that's all."
These words made Lianxiang even more confused. She opened and closed her mouth repeatedly, but her eyes were filled with shock.
How could any woman dare to say such a thing, let alone the man who was looking at her and whose status was extremely valuable.
But the person in front of her showed no other emotions. Instead, she lowered her eyes and looked at her belly. Her tone was as gentle as a feather falling into her heart, which instantly relieved Lianxiang's shock and embarrassment.
"Sister Lianxiang, don't you also want to get ahead on your own? In fact, like Sister Lianxiang, I just want to live a good life. It's just that I have one more child than Sister Lianxiang. As for other people and things, I don't care at all. If you don’t care, no matter whether it’s good or bad, it’s not worth taking to heart.”
Lianxiang pursed her lips and swallowed, she couldn't help but marvel in her heart, and also had a vague guess.
That noble man must have done something that made it difficult for the girl to look back, and that made Song Ci lose her heart, and he couldn't coax him no matter what.
But this girl is really extraordinary.
With a child in tow, he didn't even hesitate in the face of that person, nor did he show any sign of bowing his head. He was indeed an ambitious master.
"So the reason why you felt so uncomfortable just now, and the few times before, was all because of morning sickness?"
Lianxiang never recovered from the shock. She only took back the hand that was attached to her belly, and then carefully held her arm.
If it were anyone else, with a nobleman's child, they wouldn't be as troubled as she is.
I am afraid that I have already given in to the situation, got some benefits, asked for some promises, and went back to enjoy the happiness.
"You actually kept silent and kept it secret for so long...then what are your plans next?"
"Actually, it's not a strange thing. Now I'll finish the work at hand first, so as not to involve unnecessary trouble."
"Well, that's true. Fortunately, Miss Feng didn't find any fault with you that day, otherwise your body wouldn't be able to withstand her torture!"
Song Jinyin lowered her eyes and smiled.
If Feng Qiyu directly caused trouble for her, she would not be afraid.
Whoever provokes the situation will be dealt with. Now she doesn't want to be tainted by anything related to Pei Yanzhou.
While the two were talking, the little girl in the distance waved her hands towards them and ran towards them.
"Sister Song Ci, sister Lianxiang!"
"Why do you have to run so fast?"
The visitor was out of breath, and Lianxiang also changed her expression and did not mention the pregnancy again.
"I just heard the embroiderer in front said that several girls who had ordered clothes in our embroidery shop have been looking for excuses since yesterday to pick out the embroidery in our embroidery shop and return all the clothes they ordered. I didn’t even bother to ask for a deposit!”
"How many people are quitting?"
"There are only three girls for the moment, but these three people have a lot of contacts with the prefect's house, and they are also officials' daughters. With this appearance, there may be other girls who have such thoughts in order to please."
After hearing this, the two people's faces suddenly became serious.
When things are returned, in the eyes of others, it means that the embroidery studio's skills are not good enough.
It's just one or two small things, but if you don't even want a few new clothes, if word spreads, no one will order anything from the embroidery shop. In the long run, the reputation of the embroidery shop will be ruined.
Song Jinyin's face darkened slightly, and she immediately thought of Feng Qiyu.
Her spring shirt has not been withdrawn, and she probably still has Pei Yanzhou's idea, but even so, it is easy for her to suppress a small embroidery workshop.
For example, if you say a few words casually, there are many girls who stand up for her, and there is no need for her to do it herself.
But now Song Jinyin is not sure whether it is her or not.
All I know is that the embroidery shop is probably being targeted, and it’s not easy to escape.
Lianxiang also thought of the Prefect's Mansion. She didn't look very good, but she still comforted the little girl for a few words, then told her to go and inquire more, and then she frowned and spoke.
"I just mentioned it casually two days ago. It can't be such a coincidence, right? A crow's mouth is not good enough!"
The two looked at each other and saw the same guess in each other's eyes.
...
Xu Shi Xiuzhang suppressed the news, not wanting to worry them, and not many people knew about it.
Everything was the same for the moment, but Song Jinyin still vaguely saw the frowning eyebrows of several Xiuzhang.
until sunset.
Song Jinyin walked out of the embroidery workshop and after saying goodbye to Lianxiang, she immediately saw the carriage not far away and Cang Lin standing next to the carriage.
After confirming that Pei Yanzhou was nowhere to be seen, she let out a long sigh of relief.
Now that the embroidery shop might be in trouble, and she suffered from morning sickness from time to time, she really didn't want to get involved with him, and she didn't want to see him, which would make her more upset.
"Miss Jinyin, please stay."
Cang Lin called her out.
On the trail not far away, Pei Yanzhou was standing on one side and did not appear in front of her.
Just seeing her face from a distance and seeing the sadness between her brows, the man's aura became cold for a moment.
Xuanwei was reporting what happened in the embroidery workshop today, and Pei Yanzhou kept staring at the figure until she stopped.
"It was Miss Feng who was looking for a place to vent her anger, so she spread the news."
"I can't even stand up, yet I dare to make trouble."
The man stood with his hands behind his hands. When he heard the man's name, his black eyes were filled with crushed ice, which was three points cooler than this winter day.
"Then take the medicine a little harder, and as for this embroidery workshop..."
Speaking of this, Pei Yanzhou frowned and stopped.
He wouldn't let Song Jinyin stay here for too long, and she probably wouldn't come here to work all the time, so he didn't take this small embroidery workshop seriously.
But now looking at Song Jinyin's expression, Pei Yanzhou thought that maybe she didn't want to leave this place anymore.
