Chapter 245 Jiang Shi was shocked to hear that the concubine was happy
July passed quietly in autumn rain. On the second day of August, Ye Shuting’s 14th birthday, and the younger generations celebrated their birthdays at will... After reporting to the Lord of Zhaoping, five tables were placed in three small open halls in Zhulan Garden in Yuanzhongzhujin Pavilion, and invited several sisters of the same age from their uncles to have a drink and listen to music.
Wei Lingjuan gave a pair of double-sided embroidered screens embroidered with fairy flowers. Yue gave a long-lived wealthy purse embroidered with red gold thread, which contained a pair of gold-carved bats. Song Ruoxi gave a birthday star holding a peach green white jade mountain. Jiang Minghong gave a piece of agarwood carved boy asking ornaments.
The sisters give them casual gifts, one poem, one word, one stroke, one palette, one hand and one socks, to express their feelings.
The Zhulan Garden planted large areas of Zhulan Garden, with small golden bead-like flowers growing in the green branches and leaves, emitting an orchid-like fragrance. The scenery is good. Unfortunately, the place is a bit narrow and it is difficult to set up a stage, so there are no people from the opera troupe to sing the opera. Two female storytellers came over, and they bowed and were about to celebrate the birthday of Tanci.
Ye Shuting waved her hand and said, "Forget it, don't sing this, we don't like to listen to it. You can sing a few new lyrics, and the lyrics are good."
"Miss Ting is a coincidence. I have just compiled two new paragraphs before. I will sing it to all the ladies and girls." The female gentleman said with a smile.
"What's the name of the new two names?" Wei Lingjuan asked with a smile when she heard Tanci.
"One is called Pearl Tower, the other is called Sancuoyuan." The female gentleman smiled.
Wei Lingjuan turned her head and asked Song Ruoxi, "Your brother and sister, do you think you can hear that it's good?"
"I don't understand this, sister-in-law, please make your decision." Song Ruoxi smiled.
Ye Shuting glanced over Jiang Minghong and smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you asked the wrong person. If you ask Sister-in-law Yuxian which pastry is delicious? Which dish is delicious? Sister-in-law Yuxian will definitely be..."
"You bad girl, dare to turn around and call your sister-in-law, I am a foodie. Look at me twisting your mouth." Song Ruoxi smiled and cursed and walked over to pinch her pink face.
Ye Shuting hurriedly hid behind Yue, "Sister-in-law, save me!"
"Save you?" Yue raised a sad and bitter smile, "I can't save you. Who else can I think of to save me?"
Wei Lingjuan heard this and said in a wrong tone, and asked with concern: "Three brothers and sisters, what happened?"
Yue's expression was calm and he shook his hand and said, "No, nothing happened. I'm joking and teasing sister Ting."
Seeing that she refused to say something, Wei Lingjuan couldn't ask in front of everyone, and smiled and said, "Just sing the Pearl Tower!"
The two female gentlemen saluted and sat down at the round pier beside them. While playing the pipa, they sang: "A thousand years of rare treasures gathered at the bottom of the sea, and they were carved into the seventh floor of the Linglong Tower. The classics of Tanci are the world, and there are countless famous artists who have heard the sound of the creators..."
Everyone listened to Tanci, talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
At this time, a maid hurried in, walked straight to Jiang Minghong, and saluted: "Mrs. Fifth, Mrs. Dong Shu fainted."
The smile on Jiang Minghong's face disappeared and she said coldly: "She fainted. Come and tell me what's the use. I'm not a doctor."
The maid shrank her neck and whispered: "Please ask the good doctor to get the wife's sign."
"I didn't bring the sign with me, so I'll talk about it when I go back." Jiang Minghong rolled her eyes and said.
When Song Ruoxi heard their conversation, he thought for a while, turned around and smiled, "Fifth brother and sister, I can bring my brand with me, so I can lend it to the fifth brother and sister for use."
Jiang Minghong frowned, reluctantly curled her lips, and said in a stiff tone: "Then thank you sister-in-law Yuxian."
"No need to thank some small things." Song Ruoxi smiled softly, "Qinghe, please accompany her."
"Thank you, young lady, thank you, fifth lady." The maid saluted and went out with Qinghe to summon doctor Liang to see Dong Jiawan.
As soon as the tanci was finished, the banquet was coming to an end, and Qinghe was back.
Seeing Jiang Minghong blindly, Song Ruoxi had to ask, "What do you think of a good doctor?"
Qinghe glanced at Jiang Minghong and said, "The good doctor diagnosed Mrs. Dong Shu's pulse and said Mrs. Dong Shu was happy."
"Dong" Jiang Minghong's wine glass fell on the table and asked in disbelief: "What did you say just now?"
"The good doctor said that Mrs. Dong Shu has been pregnant for one month." Qinghe said.
Everyone looked at Jiang Minghong with sympathy, and the concubine's son was about to have a legitimate son.
"Impossible, impossible." Jiang Minghong stood up in dismay and walked outside.
"Why don't you go and serve me quickly? Why are you doing stupidly?" Wei Lingjuan shouted sternly when she saw that Jiang Minghong's maid did not follow her.
The maids ran out in panic.
The atmosphere in the hall became a little dull due to this incident. After a long time, Chen frowned and said, "This fifth brother is too messy. How can I let Mrs. Madam get pregnant first..."
Yue coughed twice and signaled her that there were a bunch of unmarried girls here, so be careful when speaking.
Chen understood and stopped talking.
"Sister-in-law, should we follow us and have a look?" Yue was afraid that Jiang Minghong would do something irrational to her anger.
Wei Lingjuan hesitated for a moment and said, "You sister-in-law, let's go over and take a look. No matter how you say it, this is also a happy event for children. We sister-in-law should go over and say goodbye."
To put it nicely, he was actually worried that Jiang Minghong would do something vicious. Ye Xiaoliang asked Mrs. Shu to get pregnant first. She could lose her temper and make trouble, but she could not hurt human life. If she wanted to hurt human life, Ye Xiaoliang would definitely not agree. For him, no matter who gave birth to it, it was his flesh and blood.
Song Ruoxi understood Wei Lingjuan's meaning and called her name. She also understood that her sister-in-law was not so righteous and righteous in her brother-in-law's wife's affairs. If Ye Fan held her accountable, she would be able to share the responsibility. She said, "What the eldest sister-in-law said is that we should go over and say goodbye."
The girls stayed in Zhulanpu, and Wei Lingjuan and the other four hurried to Muzhiyuan with their maids. They had seen Muzhiyuan, and suddenly, a shrill scream came, and the four of them all turned pale. It was over, one step late.
The shoulder chariot stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Wei Lingjuan and the other two went down the shoulder chariot and walked quickly towards the courtyard without waiting for the maid to help. Chen was pregnant and was one step slower.
Bypassing the screen wall, he saw a row of maids standing in the yard. Jiang Minghong sat on the beech lamp chair in the corridor with a cold face. He stared at Dong Jiawan, who was kneeling on the ground, and the angry Madam Qi who was holding Dong Jiawan, and was lying on the open space on the side. Her butt was already covered in blood.
Su Nianjin stood behind Jiang Minghong's chair with a pale face, holding a cup of steaming tea in her hand.
Jiang Minghong looked up and saw the three of them, curled up the corners of her lips, smiled strangely, and stood up shakingly and said, "Why are the sisters-in-law here? But are you worried that I will kill this bitch?"
"Fifth brother and sister, do you have any words to say slowly, don't do things in a mess!" Wei Lingjuan advised.
Jiang Minghong said sarcastically: "Looking at the same time, what else can I say? This bitch is pregnant with a sinful seed..."
"Fifth brother and sister, please be careful." Wei Lingjuan interrupted her, "Mrs. Dong Shu is pregnant with the fifth brother's child."
"Fifth brother and sister, it's already autumn, the ground is cold, Mrs. Dong Shu is pregnant with a child. If there is something wrong with the child, you, the legitimate mother, can't bear it, so you should let her get up and go back to the room to rest. There are still eight or nine months to pay attention." Wei Lingjuan gave Jiang Minghong a wink, not to mention whether Dong Jiawan's belly is a man or a woman, even if she is pregnant with a man and is pregnant for ten months and once she gives birth, there are dangers in the middle. If you are not careful, you may have one corpse and two lives. If you really can't tolerate her, there are ways to kill her in secret. Why bother to catch the handle on the surface at this moment?
Jiang Minghong walked to Wei Lingjuan, looked at her steadily, and suddenly burst into laughter on his back, his laughter sharply and harsh, and he looked like crazy. Yue, Song Ruoxi and Chen took a breath, Jiang Minghong couldn't stand the stimulation and went crazy?
Wei Lingjuan frowned. Didn’t this stupid woman understand what she meant?
The laughter suddenly stopped, Jiang Minghong looked straight at Song Ruoxi, and asked, "Sister-in-law Yuxian, what would you do if it were you?"
Song Ruoxi looked at her and said frankly: "I don't know what I will do."
"You are not very powerful. You force the young city lord not to take a concubine. Why can't you deal with this matter?" Jiang Minghong said sarcastically.
Song Ruoxi was a little sympathetic to Jiang Minghong when Dong Jiawan was pregnant. When he heard this, his sympathy was disheartened and he sneered: "You have also said that I forced the young city lord not to take a concubine. If he had no concubine, how could I have to deal with the pregnancy of a concubine?"
Wei Lingjuan and the other two were speechless about Jiang Minghong still in the mood to cause trouble for Song Ruoxi. This stupid woman was so stupid that she was extremely stupid and rare in the world, so it was hard for them to be sisters-in-law with this person.
"Mrs. Fifth Lady, there is a saying that I didn't want to say it, but now I have to say it." Madam Qi suddenly said.
"What do you have to say, say it!" Jiang Minghong suddenly turned around and stared at Madam Qi, her eyes like a knife.
"Mrs. Fifth Lady, Mrs. Dong is a good concubine selected by the fifth prince at the banquet. Not those who can be beaten and scolded by you. I advise the lady, just let the wife go back to her room to rest. Otherwise, if something happens, the fifth lady will not be able to explain to the fifth prince." Madam Qi looked at Dong Jiawan, who seemed to be in a coma with her eyes closed, and said anxiously.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xiaoliang rushed in after hearing the news. Seeing the situation in the yard, annoyance flashed across his face and wanted to beat Jiang Minghong. However, the four sisters-in-law were present and had to smile and salute to the four, "I would like to pay my respects to the four sisters-in-law, and the four sisters-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-in-laws-
"Okay, fifth brother, there is no need to say those polite words. You should deal with this matter quickly and we won't sit down." Wei Lingjuan said lightly.
"Four sisters-in-law, please go slowly." Ye Xiaoliang bowed.
Wei Lingjuan and the other four led their maids out of Muzhiyuan. As soon as they walked to the gate of the garden, Ye Shuting sent the maids to report that the banquet there had been broken and there was no need to go there.
"Since that's the case, let's invite my mother to her, so let's go out of the city." Wei Lingjuan didn't want to stay in the city for more.
Yue and Chen had no objection.
Song Ruoxi also went with him to meet the Lord of Zhaoping County.
The Zhaoping County Lord didn't know about Dong Jiawan's pregnancy, so he didn't say anything after hearing them.
