[Rebirth] Deep house raising dumplings

Xi Wanxiang blushed and handed the two slips that she had hidden in the cabinet to the cousin. She thought that the cousin would definitely say something to her, or at least ask her why she did this, but the cousin didn't , just smooth out these few lists, and stack them back to their original positions in order.

Holding her sister-in-law's hand and going back to Xi's house together, Xi Wanxiang was always a little flustered, she turned her head slightly, she wanted to know what the sister-in-law was thinking at the moment, maybe she was thinking about how to get along with this concubine who already had a loving concubine How to get along with the husband of the family, how to win the favor of the husband so as to give birth to an heir for the Xi family, or how to take care of the business of the Xi family so that the grandmother can always leave the business to her with peace of mind.

Wan Xiang thought about it, then shook her head mockingly, her cousin is not such an aggressive person, maybe she didn't think about anything?On the contrary, it's me who is worrying unfoundedly, always speculating about what has not yet happened, and making myself worry for no reason.

A circle of people sat around the round table for dinner. The Xi family seemed to have never been so lively. Mrs. Xi had a faint smile on her widowed face all day long, as if the family happiness full of children and grandchildren always made her feel happy. .

But these things are not so easy for Wanxiang, watching her cousin pick up vegetables for her cousin from time to time, while Yu Shi on the other side of him is pursing her lips, with slender eyebrows and eyes, it always makes people feel that she is calculating something in her heart .Meeting Yu's eyes, Yu turned away hastily, with a look of panic on her face, Wanxiang didn't know if her words had any effect, if Yu was too timid to take risks and deceive everyone, then What method should I use to prevent my cousin from entering my sister-in-law's door.

Although the husband and wife Qin Se and Ming Fang are happy to see each other, Wan Xiang just feels panicked.She didn't dare to look at her sister-in-law, she had already discovered that she had secretly hidden the list, so would someone as careful as her understand something?

It's all right, I'm just a little girl at the age of cardamom, and my sister-in-law treats me well, so it's understandable to cling to her. My cousin must only think that my behavior is childish and selfish, right?If that's all it is, Wan Xiang is still acceptable for this crime.

Thinking of this, Xi Wanxiang finally calmed down in the mess of thoughts, breathed a sigh of relief, and took a bite of food.

As expected, Mrs. Yu is not a restrained and cautious person.At the end of dinner, Xi Xuyao ​​picked up a piece of fatty braised pork for her. Looking at the bright and clear braised pork in the bowl, Mrs. Yu frowned, covered her mouth and retched.

Xi Xuyao ​​took pity on the always weak Yu Shi, hurriedly put down his chopsticks, stroked Yu Shi's back, and asked the girl behind him to pour water for her.

After finally calming down, Aunt Feng seemed to have noticed something, and said with a smile: "Hey, what's the matter? Looks like she's pregnant, right?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Xi's frowning brows also raised, and it was rare for her to look directly at Mrs. Yu: "How long has this nausea and discomfort been going on? Besides these, is there anything else?"

Yu vomited so much effort, she could only lean against Xi Xuyao ​​weakly and softly, her face was a little pale: "It's been a while, and I haven't paid attention to it. Apart from retching from time to time, I also have some lethargy and faint all day long." Heavy, I always want to drink some sour plum soup..."

Aunt Feng had a delighted smile on her face, and said to Mrs. Xi: "Old lady, maybe you are happy!"

Mrs. Xi put down her chopsticks and said to the waiter, "Be quicker and ask the doctor to come over and have a look."

The doctor who was invited was the one who took the pulse of the cousin in the afternoon. When he came in, he saw Wan Xiang. Wan Xiang smiled and blinked at him. The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead, maybe he was on the way In a hurry, I still have a guilty conscience.

Tonight, Mrs. Xi was very happy. She learned from the doctor that Mrs. Yu was indeed pregnant for two months. It's just that Mrs. Yu grew thin, so she didn't see any changes. His body is weak, so the pulse of the fetus is a bit vain, and he has to give birth at home to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Although the old lady was as calm as ever, she still gave some advice to Mrs. Yu in a soft voice, so that she could rest on the bed and recuperate her body so that she could give birth to the child smoothly.Furthermore, the old lady told Xi Xuyao ​​to take good care of Mrs. Yu, and to say what she needed in terms of food, clothing and daily life, and she should be satisfied.

Xi Wanxiang obediently sat next to Mrs. Xi, watching everyone in the room beaming with joy, all of them fixed their eyes on Mrs. Yu, who was half lying on the bed. At this moment, he suddenly became the focus of attention.Looking at Mrs. Yu, she felt a little weak, with a smile that was neither awkward nor embarrassing on her lips, and her eyes were always evasive.But these strange looks were too subtle, only people like Wan Xiang who knew the inside story could catch them.Xi Wanxiang looked at her, and couldn't help but feel a little contempt for the Yu family. She even pretended to be pregnant to win the position so timidly. Fortunately, her grandmother was overjoyed, so she was not exposed.

The Yu family was happy, so Xi Xuyao ​​naturally stayed by her side.

Yin Tang ordered Jinlian to go to the embroidery room to fetch some high-quality silk and satin, and stretched Su brocade on the embroidery platform. Xi Wanxiang lay beside her curiously, watching her familiarly thread the needle.

"Is the sister-in-law embroidering patterns for the child in the second sister-in-law's stomach?" Xi Wanxiang asked softly.

Yin Chan nodded and pricked the first needle on the brocade: "The Yu family's child is the old lady's first great-grandson, so naturally he must be favored. It's a pity that I don't live up to it. I'm afraid it won't happen in a while. What kind of son-in-law is born?"

The cousin's tone was flat, without much ups and downs, let alone emotional fluctuations.Wan Xiang was a little uncertain, and after deliberating for a while, she asked: "If my cousin is happy, do you want to have a boy or a girl?"

Yin Tang paused in his hands, raised his eyes, and saw Wan Xiang seriously lying on the small table, staring at him intently, Yin Tang finally smiled: "Look at you, you are so sour, if you are sister-in-law, you will be happy." Enough is enough, no children."

Wan Xiang's eyes lit up, although the sister-in-law obviously said this to comfort her, it still made people very happy.She hurriedly took her cousin's hand and asked again and again: "Really? You can't lie to me!"

Yin Chan smiled and tapped Wanxiang's nose: "Naturally, another little Wanxiang, won't it exhaust me? Well, let go quickly, you will soon let your sister-in-law pierce your hand."

Only then did Wan Xiang reluctantly let go of Yin Dang, and continued to watch her embroider brocade beside her.The red candle flickered, passing over her side face, it was like a white jade submerged in water, delicate and gentle.The sister-in-law is humming a ditty softly, but she can't make out the words, she just knows it's a folk song in southern Hunan. She heard that in the old days when a girl got married, relatives from her natal family would gather together to sew a wedding dress for her, and everyone would sing together This ballad integrates blessings into the dense stitches.

The night was as cool as water, and snow seemed to be falling outside the window again. The snow was so fine and small that it melted into water droplets when it fell on the ground, and soaked into the soil immediately.The windows are closed tightly, the stove is lit in the house, and the incense and white smoke are wafting. Everything is as warm and beautiful as a dream.

Yin Yang blew out the candle and lay down beside Wan Xiang.

After the sister-in-law washed off her plain makeup, Wanxiang realized that there was a layer of bruise under her eyes. She really didn't sleep well last night, and the sister-in-law likes to hide her thoughts so much, and she always laughs at Yan Yan's kindness to others Appearance, but his own thoughts are silent, how tired he must be.

Xi Wanxiang stretched out her hand, and carefully rubbed her fingertips under her eyes: "Sister-in-law has dark circles~"

Yin Tang smiled, and stretched out his hand to caress Wan Xiang's eyes: "Aren't you too, thanks to grandma being happy today, otherwise I would have to ask you, but I went out during the day, so I didn't sleep well at night."

Wan Xiang was taken aback for a moment, it turned out that she was no more than half a catty.Thinking about it, she burst out laughing and wrinkled her nose: "I don't care, my cousin's dark circles are thicker than mine!" As she spoke, she circled her fingers and compared Yin Chan's eyes. Laugh at yourself.

"I've become more courageous, dare to laugh at my sister-in-law?" Yin Tang also laughed, and scratched Wan Xiang's armpit, Wan Xiang was not to be outdone, and the two had a quarrel on the bed.

It took a while for Wan Xiang to feel tired. She lay down beside Yin Dang and calmed down. Yin Dang put her hand on Wan Xiang's back and patted it lightly. After a long while, she calmly said, "It won't be allowed in the future." , You can do it once if you have a small temper, but if you do it several times, even if the sister-in-law doesn't blame you, you will make the situation of the sister-in-law even more difficult."

Little Wanxiang, who was curled up by her side, closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, she didn't speak, her breathing was slow and long, Yin Chan thought the little girl was asleep, smiled and sighed, and helplessly touched her furry hair. He closed his head and closed his eyes.

Yin Tang said it very ordinary, as if it was just mentioned casually, but it hit Wan Xiang's heart all at once.

It took a long time for Xi Wanxiang to open her eyes again. She stared blankly at the face of her cousin's sister-in-law, and then turned around for a moment, facing the top of the bed with intricately carved lotus pods. A strand of hair fell out. At the corners of the eyes and eyebrows, it was itchy, and she blew it away.

The sister-in-law's words still lingered in Wanxiang's ears, and the sister-in-law really felt that it was just Wanxiang's willfulness, perhaps because she was worried that her love and care would be taken away by another person, her habitual life would be broken, and she couldn't bear it. Frequent interruptions.

Wanxiang thought about it, and it really seemed to be the case, but it didn't seem to be the case. She was not entirely out of the clingy mentality of a child. The person who lived in Xiao Wanxiang's heart, she wanted Yin Yang, wanted her completely It is your own.

Xi Wanxiang was taken aback by her frank thoughts, and immediately blushed.Shaking his head, he also thought that Mrs. Yu is now falsely pretending to be pregnant, and has won the attention of her grandmother and everyone. Seeing it makes her cousin really sad.All this happened because of Wan Xiang, so she naturally had to take the responsibility.

Wan Xiang quietly turned her gaze to the sleeping face of her cousin's sister-in-law, as peaceful and serene as a lotus flower in full bloom.Xi Wanxiang was really capricious, she didn't even intend to ask her sister-in-law if she could accept her growing feelings, Wanxiang felt that she was still young, only twelve or thirteen years old, and when she was fifteen or sixteen, she would be with her again. The cousin said it was not too late.Then in the intervening years, I just guarded my sister-in-law and held her hand tightly, and I was satisfied.

As for how to gain a foothold in Xi's family, the sister-in-law is an upright gentleman, and she manages everything step by step.But she is not Xi Wanxiang, she just likes to play tricks.

Bai Zhi... At that time, she must have been two or three years older than herself, but now she is Pingping Tingting's age, and she is married again, so it's time to drop by and catch up.Wan Xiang thought again that the shopkeeper of Chen's Cloth Shop mentioned that the young master of the Han family would bring his lovely wife back soon to spend a new year at Bai Zhi's mother's house.

Just in time.
