Comprehensive wear Meng Po comes a bowl of soup

Chapter 4

Li Mei walked towards Qiu Yixuan steadily and quickly, and waited until Qiu Yixuan arrived.I saw an eight or nine-year-old girl in the yard, wiping her tears while fanning a small medicine jar with a cattail fan.The midwife in the room yelled loudly; "Is the ginseng soup ready?" while walking out of the room with bloody hands.

The little girl poured the ginseng soup cooked in the medicine jar into a bowl, and carefully served it to Po Wen.Only at this time did Wen Po see Li Mei, and before she had time to say hello, Li Mei hurriedly waved her in and asked, "What's the situation with Si Yiniang now? Why is there only you and another Wen Po? The nanny that the master prepared earlier. Where did they go again? Is this the time, or is it time for them to hide away?"

When Wen Po heard the accusation, even though it wasn't her, she was ready to kneel down and plead guilty.Li Mei hurriedly helped her up: "Don't rush to apologize, tell me about Si Yiniang's current situation."

At this time, Li Mei had already entered the delivery room, and touched Si Yiniang's arteries with her hand, and then lightly touched Si Yiniang's belly.At this time, the fetus was still moving in the womb, and Wen Po said in her ear; "Last night, the mansion sent a table of noodles. It is said that the women have served the fourth aunt for their hard work recently. They are rewards for the women. Be sure to serve them well." The fourth aunt gave birth safely, but today the fourth aunt suddenly mobilized, Cui Ju came to find the women and several people, only to find that, except for the women, the rest of them had diarrhea. After the women came to the delivery room, they checked the fourth aunt. With a slender body and a narrow pelvis, it is difficult to give birth safely even in normal times. What's more, the fourth aunt accidentally fell and injured her lumbar spine for some reason. At this time, the pain is inexplicable and it is difficult to use her strength. The women really don't know how to do it gone."

Li Mei half-bent and approached the fourth aunt, calling softly: "Zhiqi, wake up. Wake up, your child is not born yet, he needs you." Hearing the voice, the fourth aunt forcefully opened her eyes, As if he had exhausted all his strength, he could only half-close his eyes. "Miss."

With just those two words, Zhiqi kept panting.With these two words, Li Mei seems to have gone back to the past. Zhiqi grew up with her. She is said to be a maid, but in fact, she is often even closer than her parents and brothers.

Li Mei was born into a family of military generals, before she got married, she often dressed up as a man with only Zhiqi with her, and went out to play without telling everyone.Even when she sneaked out and met Tan Hualang back then, regardless of her parents' disapproval, even when she broke off the father-daughter relationship and still got married.The only one who has been following him is Zhiqi.At that time, Zhiqi was not called Zhiqi. This name was changed by Li Mei to the maid around her when she was learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting in order to please Tan Hualang.

The original Zhiqi was named Xiaoyue.I don't know why the master and servant have come to this day.Maybe the servant girl has a big heart and wants to be the master.Maybe it was because the master's life was not good after being self-willed, and he had a knot in his heart with the only maid who didn't persuade him at that time.

In short, after the fourth aunt became the fourth aunt, Li Mei never came to see her again.And Fourth Aunt never appeared where Li Mei would appear.Thinking of the past, no matter how many emotions she had, seeing Zhiqi lying on the bed dying at this moment, Li Mei could only feel reluctance in her heart.

Zhiqi took two deep breaths, and said a word to Li Mei with difficulty: "plan" Zhiqi stared at Li Mei tightly after panting deeply, she knew she understood.Li Mei did understand.At that time they sneaked out to listen to books.The storyteller told a strange thing.

It is about a pregnant woman who was seven months pregnant and died unexpectedly. Doctor You Fang who passed by saw the dead body of the pregnant woman and said that the fetus in the womb was not dead, and that the fetus would survive if it was taken out by abdominal dissection.The pregnant woman was the only daughter of the landlord's family, and she recruited a husband only to give birth to an heir. Once she died, the family's furniture would be broken.Hearing what Dr. You Fang said, he refused to give up even if he had a little hope.So Dr. You Fang was asked to cut out the belly and get the son.I saw that the doctor took out a silver knife with a handle of about three inches and a blade of about one inch, and dug open the pregnant woman's body layer by layer, until he reached the eighth layer, and finally took out a baby boy who was still alive from the dead pregnant woman.

At that time, the two listened to this story only as a curious rumor, not to mention how Doctor You Fang was able to see the dead pregnant woman, even the removal of the abdomen was an incredible thing for them.

But today, one of the two is lying on the delivery bed, and it is a certain death situation.Both of them hoped that the strange story they heard at the beginning could at least save the child in their womb.

At this time, the people Li Mei ordered to find before finally arrived one after another.Fu Nai next to the old lady was the first to arrive.Now in the mansion are Li Mei's eldest son, Jiang Xin, and his eldest daughter, Jiang Ruan.

The concubine Jiang Chao from Xia Yan, the concubine Jiang Qin, and the third concubine Jiang Ru from the third concubine were all born with Fu Nai beside the old lady.Nanny Fu is the old lady's nanny, she is in her sixties now, a real person is mature and knowledgeable.As soon as she arrived, even Li Mei instantly felt reassured.In recent years, wives and concubines have been fighting for favor in the mansion. It's not that no one wants to do something to their children, but all the children born in the mansion are the descendants of the old lady.Therefore, even if Li Mei's wife's status is unstable, no matter how much Xia Yan is favored, or no matter how arrogant and domineering Third Concubine is, as long as the fetus is conceived, it will be delivered safely.

At this time, as soon as Madam Fu arrived, she brought a few big maids that the old lady had to use in the yard, and tidied up the inside and outside, so that it looked a bit of a serious delivery room, unlike just now when she even had to boil water when she asked for it.After cleaning, Mammy Fu touched Fourth Aunt's fetal position left and right.

Seeing Si Yiniang's angry look, she fed Si Yiniang the thick ginseng soup that she had just boiled. After feeding half a bowl, Si Yiniang couldn't drink anymore. flow onto the body.At this time, the invited doctor finally arrived and was waiting outside, so Nanny Fu went out to communicate with the doctor about Si Yiniang's situation.

Just for a while.Linglong, the maid next to the old lady, hurried out and said to Nanny Fu: "Mommy, the fourth aunt has passed out." The doctor shook his head when he heard the situation, and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult to have both in the current situation." Fu Mammy frowned slightly, and said: "When the old slave came, the old lady had an account, and the heirs of the Jiang family must not make any mistakes." The intention at the moment was to keep the young.

At this time, when encountering such a situation, most of the rich families would choose this way, not to mention that the one who gave birth was only a concubine.When the doctor heard this, he only sighed slightly.Not surprised.

In this case, there is no need to take into account the male and female defenses with the mother.Only by feeling the pulse directly can we know the situation more intuitively.As soon as the doctor came in, he could smell blood in the delivery room, and the delivery bed was already soaked in blood.When the doctor came in.

Li Mei was born in a family of military generals, and she was the most informal when she was young, and she didn't avoid it at this time.The doctor played with the pulse, and Li Mei asked, "How is it?" The doctor heard someone ask, and seeing her attire, she should be a female family member with status in the house, so she replied; "This aunt in the house is in a very bad condition. Optimistic. The mother’s spine is broken, and her breath is weak now. In addition, her own pelvis is too narrow. In this situation, it is normal to suffer a bit of trouble during childbirth. Now the fetus is too long in the body, and the fetal movement is already very weak. I'm afraid." What I'm afraid of, Nanny Fu and Li Mei both understand the unfinished meaning.After thinking about it for a while, Li Mei still decided to suggest to the doctor; "Look, if you cut the abdomen and take the child"

Li Mei's voice has not yet fallen.At the door, a coquettish voice came to mind: "Sister, you have such a vicious heart. You are calling the fourth sister to die by disembowelling and taking the child? Although the fourth younger sister used to be your slave, but since she became the master's concubine , then everyone belongs to the master, it is up to you whether the fourth sister lives or dies."

The speaking woman was wearing a water-red pomegranate dress trimmed with gold thread embroidery, and she was wearing a ponytail, on which was a red gold begonia inlaid with rubies. The most charming and bright, this is the third aunt, usually the most contemptuous of the fourth aunt's background, thinking that her status is low and not worthy of being compared with an official girl like her. Fortunately, the fourth aunt lives in a remote place and doesn't go out often.Even so, it is always fun to meet Third Concubine occasionally and mock Fourth Concubine.

Today, he opened his mouth and called his younger sister affectionately, as if he wanted to speak for her.And there is another woman next to San Yiniang, wearing a water-blue wide-sleeved long-sleeved fairy dress, and combing the cloud-like bun. There is not much decoration on the bun, only a row of warm jade carvings are inserted obliquely. The hollowed-out fan-shaped hairpin looks like a fairy.This is the most favored head of the Jiang family, Aunt Xia.

At this time, Aunt Xia also frowned slightly, and said to Li Mei with a worried look: "Sister, this is a human life after all." She didn't say anything more.Li Mei was very angry when she heard this, but the situation was urgent and she didn't want to quarrel with these two, so as not to waste time, not only would not be able to save Zhiqi, but also the child in her womb.Just when Li Mei turned around and explained to Nanny Fu and the doctor about the abdominal dissection.There was a clear male voice, "What kind of life? What happened?" When he walked up to Xia Yan with strides, the man stopped, took Xia Yan's hand with both hands, and looked down at her inquiringly. .

Xia Yan glanced at Li Mei, then lowered her head slightly, as if she dared not speak.The man looked at the third concubine again, and the third concubine said, "The concubine and sister Xia just came and heard my wife say that they would use a knife to cut open the stomach of the fourth sister. Isn't this a murder? The concubine is very scared, but she can't bear it." Seeing that the fourth younger sister died so vaguely because she offended the wife, she argued with the wife. The master wants to make the decision for the concubine, and the concubine is really afraid."

After speaking, he made a very scared look and leaned on the other side of the man.The person who came was the master of the Jiang family, Jiang Cheng.Jiang Cheng can be named Tanhua Lang, not only has a brilliant literary talent, but also a handsome and handsome appearance.Today, at the age of only 25, he is already a close minister of the emperor, and the official worship is the third rank. He is the dream of many women nowadays.At the beginning Li Mei was so fascinated by this appearance that she would rather abandon her parents and relatives and marry him as his wife.However, in just six years, the husband was neglected, the concubine was persecuted, and the mother-in-law stayed out of the matter.There is nowhere to tell about the grievances she received, Li Mei gradually began to give up.

Jiang Cheng frowned and looked at Li Mei, and said in a very disdainful tone: "At first I thought you were rude and unworthy of being a big wife, but I really didn't expect you to have such vicious intentions." Looking at Zhiqi who gave birth to him, He didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but he was able to flirt with other women outside the delivery room, and accused his own Jiang Cheng indiscriminately after hearing what the concubine said.Li Mei suddenly felt that she had lost the strength to explain.

At this moment, Nanny Fu behind Li Mei spoke.Nanny Fu didn't want to intervene in this internal competition, but since the old lady sent her to protect the fetus in Fourth Aunt's womb, Nanny Fu would not let them delay the treatment.He opened his mouth and explained: "Returning to the master, the fourth aunt's pelvis is too narrow, and now her spine is broken, she cannot give birth smoothly, and the fetus has been in the womb for too long. Now I can only take out the fetus by dissection to protect the Jiang family's heirs."

After Jiang Cheng heard this, his first reaction was not to make a decision, but to continue to look at Li Mei with dissatisfaction, and asked, "How did Zhiqi break his spine? The delivery date is only half a month away. You actually let something happen in the mansion?" This kind of thing. How did you do this Mrs. Jiang."

After hearing this question, Li Mei looked at Jiang Cheng in disbelief.All the general affairs of the Jiang family had been handed over to Xia Yan when she was pregnant with Ruan'er.Now he only has the name of a wife in the mansion.All he did was try his best to raise two children who were not loved by their father.Outsiders only know that it is Aunt Xia from Jiang's residence who is socializing in foreign countries, and her husband's family is weak and difficult to socialize with.But she was born in a family of military generals, she practiced martial arts since she was a child, her body is the strongest, why is she weak.Could it be that the Jiang family still can't tolerate her if she backs down step by step?
Li Mei felt even more disheartened, she didn't want to say a word to Jiang Cheng, she just wanted to go back and see her two children.So that I have the courage to persevere.But at this time, Zhiqi's life was dying, and she was worried, so she went back to the delivery room without saying a word.

Seeing this situation, Madam Fu knew that she had to come forward to ask for instructions.So I asked Jiang Cheng again: "Master, the fetus in Fourth Aunt's womb can only be saved by disembowelment. What the old lady means is that the heirs of the Jiang family are the most important thing."

Jiang Cheng was annoyed by Li Mei's attitude of turning away without saying a word.Hearing this, he waved his hands and said, "Go, since mother said so, of course the heirs are the most important thing." After speaking, he took Xia Yan's hand and walked to the side hall, obviously not planning to wait at the door.The third aunt also followed the two to the side hall.Jiang Cheng said as he walked, "It can be seen that he is an ominous person who was born to deny his mother's fate."

On the other hand, when Madam Fu returned to the delivery room, she discussed with the doctor about abdominal dissection.Because it was too bloody, Li Mei avoided to the side of the screen.Li Mei sat on the side of the screen in a daze, thinking about Zhiqi's situation for a while, and thinking about her ignorance in the past.

Sitting blankly, without making a sound, tears flowed all over his face.Two quarters of an hour later, Mother Fu hugged the baby girl who fell asleep after crying twice after she was born, and went to find Li Mei behind the screen.Seeing Li Mei's appearance, Madam Fu was stunned for a moment, then sighed slightly, and said to Li Mei: "Ma'am, the fourth aunt gave birth to the fourth young lady, and she said she wanted to see you. The fourth young lady is too weak. Let Fourth Miss receive the doctor's pulse diagnosis here, you, go see Fourth Aunt."

Li Mei turned her head in a daze, and glanced at the baby girl in the swaddle.They all know that Zhiqi is now returning to the light, and this side is probably the last side.

Li Mei quickly stood up and walked towards the side of the screen.Probably because she had been sitting motionless for a long time, or because she couldn't bear the parting of life and death, Li Mei staggered twice after walking such a few steps.Waited until Zhiqi's bed.

Probably to block the blood, Zhiqi was covered with a brocade quilt.At this time, her eyes were fixed on Li Mei's direction, watching her appear.A faint light flashed in his eyes for an instant, and Li Mei half-bent and took Zhiqi's hand that was placed on the brocade quilt.His hands were so cold that he couldn't feel any raw temperature.Li Mei choked up and shouted: "Know chess, know chess" really didn't know what to say to comfort her, they all knew that she had no hope of surviving.

Zhiqi opened his mouth, and then said softly, "Xiaoyue's... daughter handed over to Miss, her name is Xiaoyue. The General's Mansion is so nice." After speaking, he smiled weakly, and then closed his eyes.And Li Mei couldn't help crying at this moment. "Xiaoyue, you will always be my Xiaoyue. I will take good care of your daughter. Don't worry, I will take good care of her."
