A Concubine of Salted Fish in Qing Dynasty [Red House]

The son was replaced?

Gao's face changed drastically, and he was completely shocked when he heard his daughter's words like losing his mind, how could the child change? !

Under the watchful eyes of so many people, under the watchful eyes of all the masters of the magistrate's family, who has the ability, who has the ability to exchange?

This is not some kind of rural place, not to mention, Aunt Yun is the one who gave birth later, how can I change it?

She rushed over and hugged her daughter tightly, "Ruixue, don't scare Auntie! You are still young, don't worry, you will bloom first and then bear fruit. Didn't Auntie have you first and then your brother?"

Aunt Mei refused to listen, and struggled to get up: "Auntie, you have been cheated, and you have been cheated by Yun, that is my son, your grandson, I gave birth to a son, come with me to get my son Take it back!"

Gao couldn't help crying, and hugged her hard to prevent her from getting up and going out. What irreparable things do you regret later?"

Mrs. Gao regretted pushing her daughter out, she is not stable enough, but she is only this one daughter, besides her, is she willing to push other people out?

I can only regret that my daughter didn't intervene more with her temper.

Aunt Mei couldn't listen to it. In her opinion, everyone was deceived. She wanted to reveal the truth and struggled hard: "Auntie, don't stop me! Why do you stop me? You should go with me and take my son Take it back..." The following words came to an abrupt end.

Because Gao stretched out his hand and waved it vigorously: "Pa——"

Then yelled at her: "Stop talking stupid things, you know it's impossible!"

At this moment, I don't know if the two of them were too loud and woke up the sleeping baby. She cried "Wow--", closed her eyes, and waved her hands in the air, as if she wanted to people comfort.

The stinging pain on her face and the crying of the child finally brought Aunt Mei back to her senses.

She stared blankly at the crying baby, Gao quickly straightened her face to let her see more clearly: "Ruixue, look at the baby's face, this baby is looking towards you, look at her Mouth, look at her ears, don't they all look like you."

Aunt Mei's eyes widened, and sure enough, she saw her shadow on the child's face...

Aunt Mei had to accept the reality, this was her child, she gave birth to...a daughter.

She looked at the child in disappointment, looking forward to everything, but in the end it was all in vain. How could the Yun family be so lucky?Why is it that the person who is lucky is not me?

God is not fair!

Thinking about it, her whole body went limp, limp in her aunt's arms.

Gao carefully let her daughter lie back down, not knowing where her strength came from just now, so she checked carefully, but fortunately she hugged her tightly, and her lower body never left the bed.

Gao breathed a sigh of relief.

Aunt Mei was lying on the bed, tears kept streaming, she stretched out her hand, Gao Shi leaned over to hug her, and hugged her into his arms.

Aunt Mei's nostrils were full of Aunt Mei's smell, and she burst into tears.

It's like when she was young, crying in the arms of her aunt after being wronged.

Seeing her venting, Gao showed a gratified expression from an angle that her daughter couldn't see, not afraid that she would cry, but afraid that she would keep everything in her heart.

It’s okay to cry, it’s all right after crying, she comforted softly, her eyes were faint: "Okay, aunt knows you have been wronged, it’s okay, don’t cry anymore, aunt is here, aunt will help you, trust me Auntie, don't worry, okay, if your face still hurts, apply some medicine first, and I'll call someone to invite Doctor Zhou later, please be obedient and don't be self-willed."

I don't know if this action will affect her subsequent recuperation.

What a fool.

Aunt Mei's crying gradually stopped. As she listened, her daughter's crying gradually became quieter. She blinked and tears rolled down her eyes. She looked over and said hoarsely, "Auntie, please coax her."

Gao smiled gratifiedly, picked up the child, let her see more clearly and coaxed softly: "Sister, don't cry, have you heard what my aunt and I said, you are a good boy, so good... ..."

She coaxed the child very skillfully, the child stopped crying completely and fell asleep again.

Aunt Mei heard that there was basically no movement outside: "Isn't it the third day today?" Although it is still early, why is there no sound outside?

Shouldn't the magistrate's San San be very lively?

Could it be that because she is a daughter, she doesn't even want to have sex?Thinking about it, Aunt Mei raised her eyebrows.

Mrs. Gao shook her head: "The old lady said that it's not a big deal to wash three times. My family will go out and invite guests after the full moon. You have to take good care of your body. The child is full moon, and you are also confinement."

Gao knows how to say it can arouse her daughter's fighting spirit: "Your father and the others will come by then, and Fang Liu and Yang San will probably come too."

At the beginning, when the daughter was divorced, she was ridiculed by Fang Liu a lot, but on such a happy day as the child's full moon banquet, the daughter can feel proud in front of her.

Gao knew that her daughter would not miss such an opportunity. For this reason, she would cooperate well and take medicine to maintain her health, so that she could appear on the stage radiantly on the day of the full moon banquet.

As for Yang San... Thinking of this man who almost became her son-in-law, Gao lowered his eyelids.

The other party is also a concubine, but because of her eloquent mouth and a bit of appearance, she was spotted by the daughter of the county grandpa's family, and then she couldn't wait to come to Mei's house to divorce.

I don't know if the other party has the face to follow the county magistrate to the gate of Lin Mansion now?

Upon hearing these two names, Aunt Mei's eyes lit up with flames, and she gritted her teeth: "Auntie, I will take good care of myself!"

It was also on the day of Xisan that Lin Ruhai finally settled on his nickname, and he decided to think about his first name.

The eldest daughter's nickname is Yingyu, the second daughter's nickname is Luoyu, and the eldest son's nickname is Chenyu.

After the old lady knew the name, she immediately asked the servant girls in the mansion to change the character for jade to Cui.

The eldest lady Xisan and Aunt Mei couldn't see it, and on the day of the twins Xisan, Yun Shuyao couldn't see it either.

For her, it was just watching the child fall asleep and being carried out. When she came back, she had changed clothes and there were signs of howling on her face.

This means that the third wash is over.

The three-year bath is over, and there are other things. Lin Ruhai and Jia Min want to write invitations to relatives and friends, inviting them to come to the child's full moon banquet.

Some people's invitations can be done by servants, while others must be written by themselves.

They don't have many relatives.

The closest ones are Rongguo Mansion, and the other is Lin Ruhai's uncle's house.

The blood of his uncle's family is also very thin. He only has one uncle. A few years ago when he took his family to take office, he encountered a mountain torrent. cousin.

The cousin is now an official in the south, and the cousin took office with her husband in the northwest after she got married.

It is unrealistic to attend the full moon banquet in their situation, and it will take more than a month on the way.

However, there was a communication before the production, and they would let the servants set off in advance to send congratulatory gifts before the day.

I can't spare the time to come here in person.

Although people cannot be invited, but now that the date has been confirmed, invitations will still be sent.

The old lady asked to make sure that her son had sent someone to deliver the invitation, and suppressed the strange look in her eyes.

What she wants to change is not only the fate of the Lin family, but also that of the Xie family.

The fate of my nephew was not good either. Now he was serving as an official in the south, but two years later, there was a flood in the place where he was working, and he took the lead and died in the line of duty.

Although the bloodline has not been broken, the children left behind are still young, and it is not easy for orphans and widows to live.

Thinking of this, she looked at her son: "Your cousin has been there for almost three years. Do you know what his plan is when his term of office is up? Your uncle is the only seedling, how close you two brothers should be..."

-

Yun Shuyao looked at the list compiled by Hongxiu, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows after seeing it.

In addition to those jewelry ornaments, this time the old lady gave her 2000 taels of banknotes, and another house. According to the address on the deed, this house is near the private school where her brother is, and it is also near the government school. That piece of literary style was at its peak, and the house was hard to come by. Looking at the area, the courtyard of the second entrance was obviously prepared for the Yun family.

And Lin Ruhai is the same as the old lady. He didn't give away the house, but he gave the farm in Yun Shuyao Wangjia Village, which has already been transferred. Looking at the land deed, this is clearly the land of the original landlord Li. His family is not short of money, so it stands to reason He said he wouldn't sell it, and he didn't know how Lin Ruhai got it.

The Yun family's hometown is in Wangjia Village, and it's not that Yun Shuyao doesn't want to buy good fields there, but no one sells them.

Yun Shuyao: "..."

Hiss, the bonus this time is a bit unexpected, she will be flattered.

She said she was flattered, but she did not break the law or make mistakes, and she was "deserved in childbirth", and she would not go to tell them that she couldn't bear it-these things seemed too much to her, but not to them.

So what to do with this bonus?

The farm is easy to handle, just ask the uncle to come forward to help find tenants. As for the house, she really hopes to make it more convenient for the Yun family to live in, but her father's temper will not agree, so find a chance and ask the two younger brothers to help her Take care of the door of the house, and stay there when it is inconvenient to go home.

As for the 2000 taels of bank notes, it is a waste of money to keep it in a bank account, even if it is deposited for a fixed period, it is better than a bank demand deposit.

In ancient times, there was a similar investment, that is, the purchase of real estate. Among them, land was the most popular among investors-so that in the later stages of each dynasty, land annexation was serious, which greatly aroused social conflicts, and then began to wash away. All over again...

Yun Shuyao didn't want to buy land, the farm in Wangjiacun was enough.

She thought about it and decided to follow the original plan.

Her ability is wood type, it would be too wasteful not to make good use of it.

-

Lin Ruhai went to the Yamen.

People who see him don't need to ask, just think about the posts they have received.

Everyone congratulated one after another: "Congratulations, my lord, on the birth of your son. I will be there on time!"

The magistrate prefect helped them save the ceremony for washing the third day, and the gift for the full moon is almost [-]% thicker than the original one.

Even people who are at odds with the magistrate will not lose face on such a happy event.

Who doesn't know that the magistrate's family is empty, and now that they finally have a baby, if they are not careful, they will really end up a feud.

As the invitations were sent out one by one, the business of the entire Xingtaifu curio shop doubled, and everyone prepared congratulatory gifts for the magistrate's family.

Although there is a saying that the magistrate does not accept particularly expensive gifts, and he can't come to the door with just something...

Yun Shuyao is in confinement, and her activities are limited in the room, but her news is not blocked.

So she knew about spreading invitations, and also about how the old lady sculpted a golden body for the Buddha, gave porridge, gave old clothes to the poor, and asked the doctor to give free consultations to the common people for ten days to accumulate blessings for the children.

These things can't be kept low-key. When everyone asks, which company is doing good things, and why?

——It turns out that the magistrate is happy to have a son!

So the sound of congratulations and blessings was endless.

The old lady was satisfied with this.

The threshold for the Lin family is high, and many people cannot get in, but the Yun family is different. The scholar's family is not a big family.

No matter how many people are envious and jealous behind their backs, what they show is congratulations.

That was the only son of the magistrate, and his biological mother must have the power of the pillow wind. For this reason, Yun Qingliang bought the things for the house in advance, made preparations, and thanked the guests behind closed doors.

The Mei family also had guests, but compared to the Yun family, their family only had one daughter, and only they knew how they felt.

Regrets are inevitable, but everyone also has great expectations.

If you can give birth to the first, you can give birth to the second.

The Mei family wished that Aunt Mei would take care of her health immediately. They knew how many people wanted to give the magistrate a woman.

Compared with the concubines and nieces of those adults, their identities have no advantages.

But fortunately, the daughter who gave birth took up the title of head. Whether it is a boy or a girl, presumably the magistrate has special feelings for his first child. size.

……

Yun Shuyao's body recovered quickly, and she stayed here every day, but she didn't feel bored. With two little angels to accompany her, time passed before she knew it.

Even though the two children are sleeping most of the time, and there is no difference in performance, she can watch for a long time.

For this reason, Yun Shuyao regrets that she can't draw, if only she could draw, she can draw them as they are now.

However, she won't, the boy and his father will.

After hearing what Yun said, Lin Ruhai was also very interested. He took over the job without saying a word, and expanded it without a teacher. One click on a blank sheet of paper leaves an imprint.

If you make a record every once in a while, you can clearly see their growth in the future.

As time passed day by day, Yun Shuyao watched the two children's skin become white and tender, their facial features unfolded, and they gradually turned into the white and tender dolls that are often seen in annual reports, their bodies are soft and full of milky fragrance.

Hold it and don't want to let go.

Every time the old lady came to see the child, she had to ask the mother three times before she was willing to leave.

Lin Ruhai said that he was holding grandchildren but not children, but when Yun Shuyao tentatively asked if he wanted to hold the child, he immediately retreated and the servants picked up the child.

At the beginning, the movements were a little rusty, and the child frowned because he was uncomfortable being held, but soon he adjusted his posture, and the child's brows relaxed.

That's it, if you say you didn't observe and study in advance, who would believe it?

Yun Shuyao felt that he probably had to wait for her words to step down.

Among the two children, Luoyu is not picky, she can hug anyone who comes, and she won't cry immediately when she is in an uncomfortable position. In comparison, Chenyu is the one who sleeps the most beside Yun Shuyao, followed by him and her. He will be more picky about Xie Mama and the two nurses who he spends the most time with.

For this reason, for the sake of his status, Lin Ruhai has to hug him for a while every time, otherwise he will frown the next time he hugs him.

Regarding this, Yun Shuyao: I am happy to hear and see.

The gender of the child does not belong to her. There is no doubt that in this case, Chenyu is eye-catching.

But she couldn't change his gender to female even if it was too eye-catching.

Yun Shuyao was also a little puzzled, the old lady came to see the two young ones every day, and showed great reluctance and love, it would not be surprising if she proposed to take the children to her Songbaiyuan to raise Yun Shuyao.

But she would rather come to Lanxin Courtyard by herself than to bring the child there.

Yun Shuyao: "..."

Was it because he thought that if he really did this, it would hurt Jia Min's face?

Or is there another reason?

Yun Shuyao didn't know.

But she was the one who really benefited, so she didn't say anything.

With the old lady, Lin Ruhai's staff, and her, they should be able to protect the two children.

Less than half a month after giving birth to her two children, her ability was upgraded to level two.

Compared with the first level, the second level has not changed much, but the strength is stronger, but Yun Shuyao believes that the third level is not far away.

After reaching the fourth level, her wood ability is not just tasteless.

According to Yun Shuyao's estimate, she will be able to reach the fourth level in a year at the latest.

The first three levels are easy to cross, but the hard part is the latter.

Nanny Li looked at the time and reminded the old lady that it was time to go back, and it was almost time for the chanting time set by the old lady.

The old lady reluctantly took her hand away, and told the nanny: "Take good care of the young master."

The nanny is used to the old lady like this, she should be at ease.

The old lady went back in a soft sedan.

After returning to the Songbai Courtyard, Nanny Li couldn't help asking: "Old lady, will you bring the young master here after the full moon?"

The old lady had to go to see the young master every day, and if she didn't go to see him, she wouldn't be able to sleep well that day.

As an old lady, it is a bit too much to condescend to go to an aunt's yard to look after the child every day. Now it can be said that it is because she is afraid that the child will be blown by the wind, but after the full moon, will she continue to do this?

Bring the child over directly, once and for all, it will be good for the future of the bastard to be adopted by the old lady.

The old lady looked at the Bodhisattva statue on the stage who was neither happy nor sad: "Don't ask, I have my own consideration."

She now burns incense to her ancestors every day before going to bed, and asks them to bless her to raise her grandson and change the ending of the extinction of the Lin family's descendants.

Of course, she also thought about taking the child to her own pine and cypress courtyard to take good care of it, but the old lady had a hidden worry—in the dream world, she had passed away.

The eyes of babies are the most aura, and it is said that they can see things that adults cannot see.

What should I do if the child is in the way of the child being held by my side?

The old lady dared not gamble.

She would rather work harder every day.

When the child grows up and can go out, it's not too late to ask the child to come over and say hello to her.

Nanny Li stopped talking.

If she continued, she would go beyond.

-

Because the three children in the family were born just one day apart, the old lady, Lin Ruhai, and Jia Min could clearly perceive the difference between the three.

The young lady takes the lead, the lightest in weight, and the weakest in body. Fortunately, there is Dr. Zhou. It can be seen with the naked eye that the young lady drinks more and more milk every day, and her crying becomes more and more powerful, which makes people feel sorry for her. Can grow up more and more confident.

The second young lady is the eldest of the twins, and her weight was almost the same as that of her younger brother at birth, but after birth, because she inherited Aunt Yun's good appetite, she has widened the gap with her younger brother, with a round face, When she waved her lotus-root-like arms and unconsciously showed a toothless smile, not many people could resist her charm—including Jia Min.

The eldest young master was born at the latest. Compared with the relatively extreme situation of the two older sisters, he is in the middle, and his temper seems to be quieter. This only refers to when he is in a good mood. If something goes wrong, his voice is louder than his older sister. Even bigger.

Sometimes, Lin Ruhai would tell Yun Shuyao about the twin sister's situation, and Yun Shuyao would also care about it, and if she knew there was nothing wrong, she would stop talking. If she talked too much, it would be easy for others to think she had something on her mind.

She knew it herself, and she couldn't control what others thought.

And... Yun Shuyao thinks about her colleague's temperament, she doesn't know how sick she feels now.

I don't know what my colleagues said about Lin Ruhai when she went to her place.

I want to inquire, look at Lin Ruhai's handsome side face with a smile, this face, this demeanor, it looks personable, honest and reliable, but it is actually full of heart, what do you want to dig out from him?Yun Shuyao thought she didn't have that intelligence, so she gave up.

Anyway, after confinement, she will be able to see her attitude from the performance of her colleagues. In comparison, it is a blank sheet of paper.

-

The invitations were sent to the Rongguo Mansion in the capital in a hurry.

Mother Jia looked at the letter and couldn't help frowning.

In Qian Momo's letter, she saw what Mrs. Lin did when Aunt Lin gave birth, and Mother Jia couldn't help but frown. Did she guard the Jia family as if they were thieves?

Or is it that the old man has gone, and their Lin family's wings have hardened?

Mother Jia's face is sullen, their Jia family is not yet completely deserted, and her eldest son is still a first-class general!

The Lin family is just a fourth rank!

I just hate that my daughter hasn't been happy for so long, and I can't ask the Lin family for an explanation.

Now that I have a concubine's eldest daughter, I have a concubine's eldest son. Boys are no better than daughters. When they grow up, they can be sent as a dowry. His eyes were a little gloomy, and then slowly eased up.

Children are mostly suffering from three disasters and eight disasters. Who knows if they can support them, so there is no need to make a conclusion so early.

It's not enough for her daughter to give her another two years. She can only send someone to give birth to a child. In any case, the next generation of the Lin family must have the blood of their Jia family.

The top priority now is for the daughter to conceive as soon as possible. Only when the daughter has a biological child can the relationship between the Jia and Lin families continue.

Thinking of the strange incident of the two concubines getting pregnant together this time, Mother Jia couldn't help but ponder.

She also asked about the horoscopes of these two people's birthdays, and they were not too brilliant. Maybe the problem lies with the mysterious Master Cicada?

It's a pity that I have searched all over the network for help, but I can't find anyone.

Forget it, it's useless to think about it.

She made up her mind and quickly wrote a post, asking someone to send it out as soon as possible, and she would come back with the other party's reply.

After thinking about it for a while, Mother Jia concluded that this favor was used up this time, and she hoped there would be a good result.

Then someone called Jia She over.

They have already passed the filial piety period, and there is no taboo, the eldest son spends his time in chaos all day long, so I just let him take a trip.

Jia Amnesty didn't know why his mother asked him to come over, it was fine, he hadn't done anything out of the ordinary recently.

Mother Jia didn't talk nonsense: "Your sister's knees have been empty for so many years. Although she has a child now, it's just that people's hearts are far away. You go to support your sister and tell the Lin family that the Jia family is not empty."

Speaking of this, Jia Amnesty's first reaction was to shake his head. The journey is long and hard, and it takes a long time to go back and forth. He has the time to do something wrong.

He Gu Zuo said other things: "Old lady, my sister finally has a child, and she doesn't have to be picked on by others. This is a happy event, and we must prepare a generous gift."

Mother Jia was going to be mad at him, but this idiot really thought it was a happy event?

"Do you know that this is a bastard, that aunt is going to climb on your sister's head!"

Jia She let out a sigh: "She dares! It's just a concubine, old lady, you look down on my sister too much."

Seeing the angry look of the old lady, she hesitated for a while, and suggested: "Why don't you let the second brother go, the second brother is younger."

Mother Jia snorted coldly, losing her patience: "Are you going? Are you going? Well, I'll go then!" After finishing speaking, she directed the servant girl to pack her things.

Let the second son go?He is no better than the eldest son who only has a false job. He just went to the Ministry of Industry, so how can he take a long leave of absence? Doesn't this delay the future of the second son?

After she said this, Jia Amnesty could only hold his nose and agree. Could it be that the old lady is really allowed to travel far at this age?Then Jia Amnesty will be stabbed in the back.

He bowed his head depressed: "I see, I'll go as soon as I go, it's just the old lady, my son is too late for the full moon banquet."

Seeing that he agreed, Mother Jia felt a little better: "I didn't tell you to go directly to your sister's place, you go back to Jinling to worship your ancestors first, see the sacrifice fields and the clansmen in other houses, and then go to see you when you come back." It's not too late, sister, I will tell you how to do it tomorrow, that's all right, you go back and let someone pack up your things quickly, and set off the day after tomorrow."

Seeing his reluctance to agree, Jia Mu dared not delay for fear that he would go back on his word.

As for the full moon banquet, it must be too late. Jia's mother didn't intend to let her son go, but let her son go to the concubine's full moon banquet?

Are they worthy?

When the daughter gives birth to a son, there is no need for the bastard to exist, so why waste time.
