Chapter 2 Dirty and discordant things
Madam Liu, who was standing next to Zhang, immediately pulled out a purse from her sleeve and handed it to the midwife. The midwife took the heavy purse and was immediately delighted. She knelt down flatteringly and said, "Thank you, madam, for the reward. Thank you, madam, for the reward."
Zhang waved her hand and said, "Madam Liu, send the midwife out of the house."
Nanny Liu bowed and replied, "Yes, ma'am." Then she quickly took the midwife out of Yiju Courtyard.
At this time, Aunt Li was already in tears, and her body was very weak after giving birth.
But Aunt Li watched helplessly as her son was called a girl, and she felt extremely distressed.
Still unable to resist, she begged for mercy: "Madam, it was my fault, but the child's fault is not his! He is a boy, not a girl! Please have mercy, Madam."
Zhang stood up, holding her waist with one hand, and Xiaomei supported her other arm. She walked to Aunt Li, stared at her coldly, and said unkindly: "Aunt Li, you are a lowly woman from the Jiaofang Bureau, how can you be pregnant with the master's child?
Have you forgotten what you promised me when you entered the mansion? I promise that when you enter the mansion, you will not get pregnant with the master's child.
What's wrong now? Relying on the master's favor, she wants to have a child. Look at yourself in the mirror and see if you deserve it.
Every time before having sex with the master, I would let you drink contraceptive soup. I didn't expect that you, a bitch, would secretly spit it out when the maids weren't paying attention. ”
Aunt Li cried and pulled Zhang's sleeve and said, "Madam, all the mistakes are my fault. It's just that this house is lonely and the master is often not at home. I just want a child to accompany me from time to time."
Seeing Aunt Li crying and looking so pitiful, Zhang felt sick and quickly pulled out her sleeves, saying sternly, "You are a bitch from the Imperial Music Bureau. This is how you seduce the master! You have seduced the master to stay in your room for more than half a month. What do you think the other concubines will think?
Moreover, the Yin family has a clean family background for five generations. No matter whether it is the principal wife or the concubine, their family background is clean and traceable. But there is only a vixen like you.
I was already giving you face by bringing you into the palace, but you disobeyed me and secretly got pregnant. I tell you, all of the master's sons must come from my belly.
Aunt Li, you should be thankful that I am also pregnant. In order to pray for the baby in my belly, I don’t want to commit the sin of killing. Otherwise your child would have died long ago. Since you gave birth to a boy, I can only raise him as a girl. ”
Aunt Li propped herself up and cried, "No, we can't do this, Madam. You are putting the master's reputation in this way. If she is raised as a girl, her life will be ruined. Madam, please have mercy. From now on, I will absolutely listen to you and will not dare to act rashly again."
Zhang said, "It's too late, Aunt Li. I will never allow anything that threatens my son to exist. Your son cannot get a penny from the Yin family. If he is raised as a daughter, he cannot participate in the imperial examination and cannot set up his own family. This is what I want.
Aunt Li, you now have two choices. One is for me to strangle the child to death, and the other is to raise the child as a girl. Make your choice! ”
Aunt Li collapsed on the bed instantly, murmuring, "Raise her as a girl! Madam, please keep the child alive."
Zhang snorted coldly: "You are smart. Come, give Aunt Li the sterilization soup.
Aunt Li, the potency of this contraceptive soup is very strong. The one I gave you before could only keep you safe for a while. This is the opportunity you took and you got pregnant.
If you drink this sterilization soup today, you will no longer be able to have children. Aunt Li, take care of yourself and serve the master well in the future.
Aunt Li, you must remember that nothing lasts forever. There will be new people entering the house in the future. Now that you are still young, you should consolidate your favor! I will raise your child from now on! ”
Before Zhang had finished speaking, Nanny Qi, Xiaomei and Xiaolan came forward. Xiaomei and Xiaolan held Aunt Li's body. Nanny Qi pinched Aunt Li's mouth and said, "Aunt, you'd better drink it! In the future, you should listen to Madam's words, and your daughter will be raised well by Madam."
After saying that, the old woman poured the contraceptive soup into her mouth. Aunt Li was already weak from having just given birth, and after drinking the contraceptive soup, she burst into tears: "No, Madam, you can't do this..."
Before she could finish her words, a pool of blood appeared from under Aunt Li who was lying on the bed.
Zhang smiled with satisfaction and said: "It seems that the medicine has worked, Aunt Li, you'd better behave yourself from now on and stop whispering in the master's ear. Your daughter is in my hands. If I want her to have a baby, she will have one. If I want her to die, it's easy.
Besides, if you marry a concubine, she will be your wife, and you will be your concubine. Concubines can be bought and sold, and the children born to a concubine belong to the wife. This child will only call me mother, and you are just his aunt. ”
At this moment, Aunt Li was lying on the bed, bleeding from her lower body. She couldn't move at all, and she kept mumbling, "My child, my child, I want my child."
Zhang looked at Aunt Li and said to the five servants in the room: "You are all my confidants. I trust you. Follow me well and I will not treat you unfairly. No one should tell anyone about the secrets in this room tonight, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."
The servants immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Yes, ma'am."
Everything was arranged properly. Zhang said, "Xiaolan, Xiaomei, Madam Zhou, let's go back! Madam Xiaoqing and Madam Qi, please take good care of Aunt Li.
Aunt Li is weak after giving birth and cannot be exposed to the wind, so just take good care of her! The child is too young and might get sick. From now on, you are not allowed to bring Sixth Girl to see Aunt Li without my permission. Remember? ”
Everyone replied, "Yes, ma'am."
After saying this, Zhang went back to her Yimeyuan with her maid and old woman.
At this moment, Aunt Li was already in tears, murmuring: "Child, my child. I haven't looked at my child carefully yet."
Xiaoqing and Aunt Qi helped Aunt Li to tidy up her clothes and quickly comforted her: "Aunt, take good care of her! You will have a chance to see the Sixth Miss in the future."
Aunt Li said, "No, it's not the Sixth Miss, it's the Young Master, the little Young Master I gave birth to for the Master."
Aunt Qi quickly covered Aunt Li's mouth and said, "Aunt, please be careful with your words. The Sixth Miss is still in Madam's hands. For the Sixth Miss's sake, Aunt, it's better to make the best of it.
Although we are Madam's people and have taken care of Auntie for so many years, we also feel sorry for you. It's good for you and for Sixth Miss to make the best of a bad situation. You know how Madam handles things. It’s a blessing that the Sixth Girl can be saved. ”
