Chapter 77: My Mother Has Another Daughter
n't want to be the eldest sister," Zhuier shivered, "I'm still hoping to learn martial arts and practice brick-breaking!" "I'll teach you!" Lian Shi was delighted upon hearing this, "This isn't hard a...Yehongzhuang that night was being hung and beaten, not only with whip wounds on her body but also marks on her neck from being strangled by a rope. 。The Xiao family felt pity for their daughter, but when they thought about the strange events of that night, especially the lightning strike that struck the old madam as she left, they lost all desire for revenge. In fact, a sense of fear began to creep into their hearts. 。When the imperial physician saw Ye Hongzhuang, he was stunned. “Being beaten like this, the person should have lost their breath, but the child is perfectly fine. What a tough kid!” 。"
Night Hongzhuang felt a bit regretful in her heart. She had never wanted this child, and hearing the imperial physician say this made her unhappy. 。Xiao shi, however, felt that this "tough life" was not a good thing. She immediately followed the imperial physician and said: "This is all thanks to the blessings of His Royal Highness Sixth Prince and Empress Dowager. The child knows that she misses her father and grandmother, so she doesn't want to leave." 。The imperial physician didn't say anything else, he took the silver reward and left. 。 It was Fu You who chased after him, all the way to the gate of General Yi's mansion, before she lowered her voice and asked, "Sir, did you manage to tell whether there's a boy or a girl in Third Sister's belly" The physician nodded, "It's probably a girl..." 。"
A girl" Fuyou was a little disappointed. Sixth Highness might only have this one child, so if it was a girl wouldn't that mean no heir The Empress Dowager would certainly be heartbroken >>> 。 “Now it's not allowed to” 。“The imperial physician added, 'It remains to be seen whether it is a boy or a girl until the child is born.'" 。”
“是。"Fuyou nodded, "Then I'll trouble you." 。The imperial physician left, Fuyou walked all the way back to Wuxuan with him, her disappointment was evident on her face. 。Yèhóngzhuāng saw this and became angry, coldly asking: "What's the matter, Imperial Physician Is my child a girl this time So you're not happy"Fūyōu turned his face cold: "Whether it's a boy or a girl, we'll only know when the child is born. Third Sister, don't overthink it." 。"I have nothing more to think about. Whether it's male or female, it all depends on the Sixth Prince's good fortune." 。"Fu You listened and frowned, wanting to argue a few words with her, but then she thought better of it. 。She's just here to take care of the baby in her belly, she's not really here to take care of Third Sister this night. 。Once the child is born, Night Third Sister's life and death have nothing to do with her. 。On the twelfth day of the last month, Ye Wen went to Qingleiyuan to help Mu Shi recuperate. Night Qingmei happened to be there, so Ye Wen also removed the scar on her forehead. 。Ye Qingmei watched as she dug out a cool ointment from a jar, applying it only to the injury on her forehead. After wiping it off, not even a trace remained. She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "So you really have such miraculous medicine! Before, when you healed Hong Zhuang's facial wound, I thought you were deliberately angering Second Aunt. I didn't expect that this kind of medicine actually existed!" 。She nodded, "Yes, it was left to me secretly by my grandfather from long ago, but there's only this one can, it's very precious." 。"Ye Qingmei replied with a soft "En," "My grandfather has been out on campaign for years. Anything he gives must be the best." 。This is just Yan'er's thing, you must keep it safe and don't let Second Aunt or the others get their hands on it. 。”
Mu shi listened to this, gave Ye Qingmei a approving look, even Ye Wenyan couldn't help but say: "I thought my elder sister would advise me to give some of this to Ye Hongzhuang too, after all, we are still family, it's not good to just not treat her." >>> 。"Yaner shouldn't think of me this way. " 。"Ye Qingmei grew serious. "I admit I'm soft-hearted and easily persuaded. I also admit that when Second Aunt came to return things, she showered me with praise and repeatedly begged me to persuade you..." 。But I didn't agree, I refused her right then and there. 。We're a family with Hong Zhuang, that much is true. We know this, and they should too. 。That kind of thing could be done, they never really treated us like family. Why should I speak up for them anymore 。Moreover, even if this hadn't happened, I would still have a choice between you and Hongzhuang. 。You are my sister, she is just my cousin, that's all. 。" Ye Wen was very satisfied with Da Jie's attitude. This Ye Qingmei, who had always been so gentle that it was hard to tell her true nature from her outward persona, finally seemed to have a brain through all these events. " 。Mu shi nodded repeatedly, "You're right to think that way. We are a family after all. Those living in the East Courtyard are nothing but thieves who have stolen our yard and house." 。If you are as clueless as Lien Mian, I'll be very disappointed. 。When it came to Ye Lianmian, several people fell silent again. Ye Qingmei wanted to speak up for Ye Lianmian several times, but in the end, each attempt turned into a sigh. 。Ye Lianmian is family, she's even a twin with her. She most wants that younger sister to come back here, to stand together as a family. 。Unfortunately, Night Continuously kept her distance from them. Even after what happened on the seventh night of her passing, she resolutely chose to stay with the old mistress. It seems she's been residing in Fu Lu Courtyard these past few days. 。The Mu family didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so she changed the subject. She took Ye Wenyan's hand and asked her, "That Inspector General, did he really take a liking to you I've noticed that every time he comes to our house these days, he seems to have some kind of interest..." 。Although he clearly expressed his stance last time, if he's not interested in you, why does he always run this way Why is he always heading towards you" For this topic, Ye Qingmei was also very interested, her eyes flickering with gossip as she looked at her. 。Mrs. Mu said, "Don't be shy, young lady. You're grown up now, these are all proper things to do." 。If he really has this intention, we can consider it. We can also ask for his eight characters and find someone to reconcile them. 。I think that man looks good. Although he is older, it's okay. Older men know how to be caring. 。Alas, you didn't listen to me before, and only had that Sixth Prince in your heart. 。Now that you're actually listening to me, I still feel like it's better to listen to you. 。So, my dear, this matter ultimately depends on your decision. If you're willing, mother will make the arrangements for you. 。If you can't do it, we won't see each other again. 。"
Ye Wenyan was very embarrassed. She glanced at Granny Ji, but saw that the old woman didn't mean to help her out of the situation. She had no choice but to explain dryly to her mother and sister: "It's really not what you think. Yunchen doesn't fancy me, and I don't fancy him either" 。I have absolutely no relationship with him, I assure you. 。“Ye Qingmei was stunned, “Yan’er, don’t scare me. Besides Yun Chen coming to our house to support you, the other one is Lian Shi from Yan Hua Palace.” 。"When he's available, he's your father-in-law, you can't possibly..."
"Where are you going with that!" She really thought Ye Qingmei's imagination was a bit too wild, " Lian Shi is so old…" 。“ Who was it” Mrs. Mu asked the crucial question, “It wasn’t Yun Chen nor Lian Shi, who was it” “Who…was it” She looked up at the ceiling, who was it Mama Ji coughed twice, finally willing to speak: “Madam, elder sister, our fourth sister deserves the best of the best down here, better than Lord Yun and Sir Lian a thousandfold, even the current emperor wouldn’t compare.” 。"Your Majesty isn't even comparable Then wouldn't that leave…" Ye Qingmei immediately covered her mouth, looking at Ye Wenyan with disbelief, "Yan'er, could it be…" 。She firmly cut off the topic, “Stop guessing, it’s really no one.” 。They stood up for me because they owed my grandfather a favor. My grandfather had introduced himself to them and asked them to look after me. 。Yes, that's the grandfather. 。“ Finally, he found a reason. Ye Wen relaxed and let out a breath.” 。Je-Ma looked at her, shaking her head helplessly. 。She also shook her head. Now wasn't the time to bring Shi Liyuan forward. She hadn't settled into this home yet, and even these close family members didn't necessarily truly regard her as the former Night Fourth Sister. 。She doesn't want to add unnecessary complications and doesn't want to put too much pressure on her family. 。Most importantly, she didn't want her loved ones to accept her because of Shi Liyuan. She also didn't want Shi Liyuan's presence to create distance between her and her family. 。"Mother 。She held onto Mu's hand and said, "I am your daughter, the marriage is decided by mother." 。If there were such a person, I would definitely bring him before my mother to assess him. My mother would examine his compatibility and scrutinize his past. 。“Only if my mother agrees will I marry, alright”
Mu shi looked at the hands holding hers, probing them over and over again until after much time she said to Ye Qingmei: “I’m speaking plainly to you, go call your brother, in a little while we ourselves will make dumplings to eat.” 。" Ye Qingmei was very sensible and immediately left with her maidservant. Even Ji MaMa and Zhuai'er went out. " 。After all the servants had left the room, and only mother and daughter remained, Mu Shi carefully began to examine those white hands that were almost frighteningly pale. 。"Your body is indeed warm, but your complexion is still very pale. I don't find it scary, just worry that something might be wrong with you." 。"She looked up at her daughter in front of her, “If my Yaner could be as obedient as you, how wonderful it would be." 。"
She put her hand back into Mu's palm and pressed it, "Mother, feel my hands again, my flesh and my bones. Feel them carefully, are they the ones you gave birth to This piece of flesh came from your belly, you raised me this big, so she will always be your child" 。You haven't lost a daughter, but gained another. I will always be filial to you, and get close to you, as well as my siblings. 。Our house is still our house, nothing has changed. 。"Mother, would thinking like this make you feel better"
Mu Shi took a deep breath. "Yes, nothing has changed. You're still the beautiful girl I gave birth to, my blood and flesh that fell off my body."
She, Mu Qianqiu, has never been a person who drags things on. Once she figures something out and gets it going, that's the end of it. 。From now on, this is her true, true daughter. Everything from the past will no longer be thought of. 。She got up, waving her hand: "Let's go make dumplings!" 。"Don't let them eat meat, just eat vegetarian. Vegetarian dumplings are just as delicious!"
Ye Wenyan was actually quite fond of this mother. Just like her mother in her past life, she was fiery and decisive, able to both hold on and let go... 。Occasionally, I may feel sad or melancholic, but I will never let myself dwell in sadness and be unable to move on. 。The mother from the previous life is gone. Thank God that this time around she has a mother again, and she also has Shi Lifeng and Quan Qingcheng. 。 “Pack dumplings” 。She also brightened up, and couldn't help but think to herself, wondering if Master Lilong liked this dish. 。"Dearest Mama, I want radish-stuffed dumplings, make plenty of them..."her chance. With so many people present, all she had to do was tell them about Ye Wenyan's attempt to kill her. Even if people were hesitant to act against the Emperor because of his status, at least...
