Return to the Qing Dynasty (43)

The Fourth Master and Lin Yutong sat on the side with the Empress Dowager, while the King Zhi and Prince Li sat opposite each other, the Third Master and the Fifth Master were opposite each other, the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master were opposite each other, and so on, this led to the Fifth Master’s family being next to each other. The Ninth Master’s family was next to the Seventh Master sitting diagonally opposite each other between his Fifth Brother and the Eighth Brother. So the families saw it very clearly.

The Ninth Master and Thirteenth Master rushed back to the capital the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival. The navy and the caravan successfully set off. In the big summer, the Fourth Master gave a special order, telling the two of them not to hurry and leave when the weather is cool. So the two brothers were traveling all the way and returned to the capital uneasy. The Ninth Master said Thirteen, "This time it's Ninth Brother who will benefit from you." It would be a devil if the Fourth Brother can give him this preferential treatment. Isn't it worry that Thirteen's body will be knocked down directly? In addition, because he had been grateful to Thirteen for the eldest son of Thirteen before, it made the Ninth Master feel sad. Sometimes I feel that the Fourth Brother and Thirteen are not like brothers and younger brothers, but more like Ama and sons.

Thirteen laughed: "Brother Jiu, if you have a legitimate son behind you, the older ones are all concubines. As long as the children are not really unsatisfied, the Fourth Master will also give you a favor."

This sentence directly blocked Jiu Ye's mouth. That's right! I have no legitimate son at all. In the future, as long as the concubine's son inherits the title, he will give himself a face. He was blocked by someone's words. Jiu Ye didn't even criticize him. He just thought that this was the fault of the concubine. Until he returned home, he was still angry. Prepare to have a few tempers, but then he realized that his concubine had lost weight, black and thin.

"What's wrong? This is?" Master Jiu was so angry that he was just anxious. "Have you been looking for an imperial physician?"

Find a bad doctor. I feel better if you are not here.

The Nine Concubine didn't argue with him, "It's considered back." She changed the topic, "My mom was worried about whether she was good at sleeping or not."

Then hurry up and wash up to the fifth brother's mansion.

The Ninth Concubine pulled him, "I've brought my mother back. This year it's hot, so I'll put my mother in the garden to cool off. I'm about to pick her up, and the palace banquet will be tomorrow."

So Master Jiu realized that he had left, and his wife actually took her mother. She was so dark and thin that she knew without asking. She was tired of being between the mansion and the garden.

My heart was moved.

Jiufujin thought to himself that you have thought too much. You are too dark and thin because I am fulfilled. I have been busy with my aunt. I have been busy with chores every day, from the site selection of the factory to the construction of the factory, to the recruitment of workers, and then to the purchase of raw materials. I have to run out day by day. But I am afraid of being happy when I run away. The money I earn in the future is enough to hire my own daughter to get eight sons-in-law. Of course, he is not enough to pay attention to his own busyness, and he has pulled out the Tenth Prince. The Tenth Prince was sick and his bones were rusted. It just happened that he had such a job to do, and it was just right. Anyway, I was idle. What did Jiufujin ask the Tenth Prince to do? He asked someone to contact her family members and buy other people's wool. It would be fine as much as he had, grain, cloth, salt and iron.

The two women are in full swing.

As for why I took my mother-in-law back, I really saw my fifth sister-in-law when I went to the fifth master's mansion. I was so tired that I got up early to pay my respects to my mother-in-law and I had to wait for my mother-in-law to rest at night. My fifth sister-in-law was not young anymore. She felt so sad! Anyway, my grandfather was not here, as long as the man was not at home, the place where the daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law were arguing would be small. Besides, she was not as honest as the fifth sister-in-law, and she was really serving her so much. But no matter how careful she served her, she would do her duty as a daughter-in-law. She didn't do that. Under the guise of asking her mother-in-law to escape the summer heat, she sent the old concubine out of the city and went to the garden outside the city.

Concubine Yi really thought this was better. She spent her whole life in the palace, and she was in a square sky. Then when she arrived outside the palace, she met her children and grandchildren every day, but her son, who had a sham beard and wrinkled face, was always worried when he saw it. It would be better to go out and see the different scenery. So there was no need for the Ninth Concubine to worry about it, Concubine Yi was so happy to be in the garden.

It was evening when I took it back, so I had to rest without saying much. I would go to the palace the next day.

When he entered the palace and sat here, Jiu Ye felt unhappy. Especially when he looked at his fifth brother. You said that you are an honest man, how could you start to be cunning? Look at you raised your wife, my fifth sister-in-law, who is so fat, and then look at my wife, black and thin. You said that my brother is not at home, and pointed at my brother to take care of her. As a result, you were fine, but instead turned your mother to this side, and the couple enjoyed their happiness. I was so disappointed! I didn’t want to give him a salted fish to the things I brought back from Jiangnan this time.

The fifth master thought to himself, what is wrong with Lao Jiu? When he came back, his eyes were not eyes, nose, and nose. He looked at his mother with a little aggrievedness, but he saw that his mother's eyes could not linger on his concubine, with a little surprise and uncertainty.

It's not easy to be sure! If I hadn't seen her almost every day, I wouldn't believe that the fat woman in front of me was her unlucky wife. They were all bitter summer, but this woman was resurrected after a few days of disgust. She sat and napped all day long, but she never delayed her meals. She never refused to accept the fruits and vegetables, and she would eat chicken, duck, fish and meat. She had a good appetite and had a good appetite. Then she would go to bed and could take a nap even if she didn't ask for sleep. What should I do?

There is an imperial physician in the mansion, please ask the imperial physician to show it.

The concubine scolded me back with one mouthful. Look, she walked me all day long. I didn’t worry about any of the old and young people. Now I have been worried about it for half my life, and I can’t take a long break. Who would be considered a slave? I didn’t feel sorry for using it so hard.

Why do you work as a cow and a horse for you, what do you do for you, what you just want to be exhausted to death, and what you just throw me over, and you can't even roll on your tantrums.

What can the fifth master say? Okay! If you want to sleep, just go to bed. If your ninth brother and sister want to pick up your mother, then take it. It’s because your wife is so old that she should be an old lady who is being served by her daughter-in-law and is already a carefree old lady. Now she has to start as a daughter-in-law, and she is really tired. So she didn’t try to keep her, so she sent her mother away.

Not long after, the concubine became better. She ate well and slept soundly, and the meat grew day by day. After growing up, the concubine still couldn't control her mouth, so she could only move her legs. So she should eat, drink, and sleep. After eating, drinking, and sleeping well, she would go around the mansion all day long to exercise.

Look! The white and fat guy who exercised was full of wind, and he walked with the wind. He bumped into him and took two steps back, almost dodging his waist.

Thinking of this, seeing that his mother was still looking at this side, his heart became silenced. When his mother was not here, his wife became like this. This is not to say that serving his mother made his wife tired.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw that the virtuous concubine, who was fat and virtuous, was taking the mooncakes on the table. Maybe she noticed her own gaze. She turned her face and handed over the mooncakes, "Do you want to try it? Try it, the taste this year is a bit different."

Humph! Eat it! Forget it so fat!

He just turned his face to see his old mother, and smiled with a flattering smile.

Concubine Yi really wanted to smash the mooncake in her hand towards Lao Wu's head and laugh at your mother's heel!

Now that there is no late emperor, Concubine Yi doesn't have to be scruples anymore. She is very bold and rude. It is said that she once took off her shoes and hit Jiu Ye. I don't know if it is true. Anyway, looking at this now, I think the credibility of this is still high.

Concubine Yi had a headache. The fifth couple were both grandparents, but now they couldn't tell the difference between fat and pregnancy. Are you stupid? You want to scold this uneasy couple to death, but I feel a little regretful. It would be great if I didn't go to the garden to escape the summer heat. It's true that I wanted to go, and it was true that my eldest daughter-in-law wanted to ask her to take a break. At that time, I didn't look pregnant, but I just looked very tired. Who would have thought that my daughter-in-law who had not been pregnant for 30 years suddenly became happy?

It's so annoying! You said how old you are, you don't know when you are pregnant, but you just think it's fat and lose weight. Is there such a thing? If you accidentally fall, you won't even dare to think about it.

The fifth concubine had no sense of pregnancy. She looked at the same round Eighth concubine, with a little envious look. She was fat because she was fat. What was she like? She was broad-minded and had to be fat. But seeing the Eighth concubine walking with someone to support her, she felt a little uncomfortable for her. You said that she had a child at such an old age. She had the same weight. She didn't walk without gasping. But the Eighth concubine was like this and it was hard to walk with weakness. It can be seen that this child was really a waste. She whispered to the Eighth concubine who was half a meter wide aisle, "Why didn't you take a leave? Why are you running around when you are so physically?"

The Eighth Concubine touched her stomach, "The Empress had already beaten someone and told me not to go to the palace to take care of her baby. Am I bored? I don't even talk to the mansion all day long, and you don't say that you come to see me and talk. It's rare that you can come out to breathe, so I asked our grandfather to bring me here. I said, "Fifth Sister-in-law, you have this kind of thing, right?"

What's there? There's meat!

"Is menstruation normal?" Eighth Foolin asked in a low voice.

The Five Concubines are hard to describe. They are so old. Menopause is normal. What's so strange about menstrual periods?

"What about vomiting and nausea?" The Eighth Concubine felt that the Fifth Concubine looked very similar to him.

All of them! But no one can be disgusted with heatstroke for two days, so it will be fine after it is over.

"Where is sleepy?" The Eighth Concubine asked again unwillingly.

There are a few people who don’t want to sleep at noon in the summer. It’s not the same thing at all.

The Eighth Concubine touched her stomach and asked, "Don't you feel your stomach move?"

There are really some things I have recently moved occasionally. Isn’t this a scattered breath after exercise? Just fart it. It’s hard to tell me about this.

The expression of the fifth concubine made the eighth concubine dare not ask. If you ask again, you should think that you are pregnant and start showing off on purpose.

Lin Yutong paid attention to the fifth concubine, and the empress dowager also paid attention to the fifth concubine. The empress dowager not only paid attention to the fifth concubine, but also paid attention to the Concubine Yi. When she saw the anxiety in Concubine Yi's eyes, the empress dowager whispered to Lin Yutong: "What's going on with the old fifth family?"

Lin Yutong thought to herself that her belly was there and she could tell her walking posture at a glance, that was she was pregnant.

She whispered to the Queen Mother: "You are a person who has been here, do you look like it?"

Why don’t they look like it? It’s just that they are too similar to it.

Lin Yutong called out to look at Dong Xiaowan standing beside him. Dong Xiaowan knew her and went over to speak openly and whispered to the Five Concubine Jin, "...Majesty, please go to the side hall..."

The fifth concubine stood up without delay, following Dong Xiaowan's hand stretched out. Thinking that she was busy with the ninth brother and sister, she was always envious. If she had something to do, who would care about the monsters and monsters in his mansion?

As a result, he went to the side hall and ate half a bunch of grapes. He didn't see the queen. Dong Xiaowan came with a white-bearded imperial physician.

This imperial physician looks familiar, he is the chief of the hospital. He used to be invited, but now he can't be invited at any time. This person is mainly responsible for the emperor and the queen.

Doctor Huang has been idle for a year. The emperor and the queen are in great health, and he has no place to use his real skills. After finally summoning him, he saw not the queen but the fifth concubine.

His beard shook. Why didn't the pregnant woman have such a big belly report? Could it be that she hadn't been diagnosed?

Seeing that the old doctor was not moving, Dong Xiaowan said in great concern: "...Five Concubine Jin is in good health and has a good appetite, but the Empress is worried about seeing it..."

The fifth concubine looked at this and that, and later realized that she was probably having some problems with her like this, "Look! It's not the dereliction of duty of the imperial physician..."

Has something grown in her belly? It's possible. She was very open-minded now. She has never suffered any crime in her whole life and lived a bad life, but she never dared to think about the blessings she has ever enjoyed in this life. Think about her sisters in her parents' family, even though she has a small family, she is much worse than her. If she hadn't pointed out the one who killed thousands of kids in her family back then, she would have lived like her own sisters. She had never produced anything more than others.

She smiled heartlessly and felt relieved, "I can stand it if I have anything."

Doctor Huang's beard shook again, and there was no need to take a pulse at all. But looking at the appearance of the fifth concubine, he still reached out. Otherwise, the other person would not have a letter to say that he was pregnant. After taking the pulse for a cup of tea, the fifth concubine almost accepted his fate and felt that he had a terminal illness. As a result, he said tremblingly: "The fifth concubine is healthy, and his fetal heart is strong and powerful, and there is no major problem."

The fifth concubine nodded, "It's fine if there's no major injury! It's fine if there's no major injury." I was so scared that I was so scared, "I just said that I have no physical problems, so why are my heart strong and powerful?"

"Feal heart!" Huang explained, "Feal heartbeat..."

fetus?

"You old doctor, you are really good at joking. Where did the fetus come from in my belly..." When asked this, Wu Fujin glared, "You said I'm pregnant?"

The old doctor is very stable, "You are pregnant, and you have been more than five months."

More than five months?

The Wufujin pressed his hand on his stomach, and the child in his stomach moved as if he was sensing. The Wufujin was so scared that he quickly took his hand away. At this time, her mind turned around. She was pregnant, not gaining weight!

Dong Xiaowan was about to congratulate the fifth concubine, but who knew that the fifth concubine cried out with a sudden scream like a wolf howling.

Thirty years have passed! I have been waiting for my children for thirty years. I have watched my concubines have one after another, and watched these concubines grow up one by one, and then I have married their wives and found a family for them. When I have given birth to a grandson and help them take care of their grandchildren, my life is expected, and I have been exhausted through the expectations. I have been desperate for the past two years and have accepted my fate, but it has come.

Is it late?

Never thought it was too late.

Even though Dong Xiaowan was smart and quick, she was so at a loss when the fifth concubine cried, "...You care about the children in your stomach..." She could only persuade her like this.

right!

The Wufujin burped, raised his arms and wiped his face with his sleeve, but could he not care about the children in his stomach? At this age, he would not be able to bring the children to the world, but he would have to be good after giving birth. He would have to live well and live a hundred years old. Otherwise, the unconscienced wolf cubs in the family would have to remove the child from eating. He would have to live and raise the child well. If his son had to marry a wife and watch the grandson be born, his daughter had to find a proper family to see her live well and he could be at ease. Relying on that unconscienced man, ah! He still disliked himself for being fat today.

When I think about it this way, I feel a sense of strength. The steps towards the hall ahead are strong and powerful, and I always walk.

After entering the hall, he bowed to the Queen Mother and Lin Yutong with great sincerity. Dong Xiaowan nodded to Lin Yutong, indicating that your guess is correct.

The Empress Dowager was talking to the close concubine Hui, and laughed like this, "This is a great joy."

Concubine Hui is a veteran. The empress dowager knew what was going on as soon as she said this. She waved her hand and asked the Wu Fujin to come over, "You child, you are not young anymore, why are you so careless?" The concubine gave birth to a child and the daughter-in-law gave birth to a child. It took at least twenty times to make such a mistake.

The great concubine then understood what these words meant, "Do you have the fifth brother and sister?" She was so surprised that her family members in the hall suddenly silenced.

Concubine Hui turned her face and glared at Dafujin. What a big deal? I didn’t see the queen, but she asked someone to hire an imperial physician? Why can’t you keep a little steady when you can handle things steadily? This is embarrassing.

The Empress Dowager smiled: "This is a good thing, and you don't need to hide it." As she said that, she looked at the fifth master, "Fifth, don't make your wife angry anymore. It's not easy to get pregnant at this age..."

The fifth master was holding a cup in his hand, and the queen mother didn't hear the question. She just frowned and asked the fifth concubine, "Is there it? Where did it come from?" She hadn't stayed with her for three months. It's not that she had anything to do with the concubine, but she really didn't know what happened recently and didn't like to take care of others. She pretended to sleep and kicked her and didn't stop until she got out of bed. So, where did you get your body? Until now, he didn't realize that his concubine was not fat, but happy.

This stupid Concubine Yi, who was so stupid, was completely furious. The mooncake in her hand was smashed over and fell directly onto the fifth master's forehead. This action was suddenly very, no one except Master Jiu expected. Master Jiu sneaked into his mother's hand with a mooncake - you should continue to beat him up!

Sitting diagonally opposite, not far away, just two or three meters away, the accuracy is still good, just in the middle of the eyebrows. However, the mooncakes are not big, and the mooncakes made by Lin Yutong asked the palace to be eaten in one bite, with all kinds of flavors, so it can be saved to try some other stuffed mooncakes, which are broken into pieces. Therefore, it doesn't hurt to hit such mooncakes at close range.

After all, the fifth master was confused, but his mouth was faster than his head. He quickly said, "My mom, I was wrong. I was really wrong. I won't go back in the future." But what was wrong with me?

Concubine Yi almost crushed the mooncakes that Lao Jiu had stuffed in her hand and said angrily: "Your wife is already five or six months old. What are you doing? You can't see with such big eyes?"

Five or six months?
To be continued...
