Chapter 464: Newborn (Part 2)

Doctor Peng was stunned.

She didn't expect to meet someone who knew medical knowledge.

He didn't know whether to retract his outstretched hand or to keep it stretched out, and his face turned red.

Eleventh Lady became more and more certain that this Doctor Peng was a person who had gained her reputation in vain.

She stared at the doctor intently, her expression as cold as ice.

For a moment, everyone in the room looked at them with bated breath, except for Jiange'er, who was still crying loudly. Because everyone was quiet, his crying sounded louder and more sad than before.

Eleventh Lady's heart was gripped tightly, and the expression on her face gradually became serious.

The room was filled with a tense atmosphere that was ready to explode.

Doctor Peng thought of Xu Lingyi's murderous look in the delivery room. She couldn't help but shudder, regretting that she should not have stayed with Mrs. Wen for the sake of greed for the rewards from the Marquis' Mansion. She also thought of the generous rewards from the Xu family that she had already packed into her bag - could it be that she would return empty-handed after entering a mountain of treasures?

As she thought of this, she couldn't help but say, "The young master's pulse is very good... there's nothing wrong with it... it's steady and strong..."

When Eleventh Lady heard her still making excuses, she became furious.

"Qiuyu," she interrupted Doctor Peng slowly, "Go to the Marquis's study and get his name card, and have Chief Steward Bai send him to the Imperial Household Department. Then tell the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department and ask them to at least give me an explanation."

Doctor Peng's heart shuddered when she heard this.

When the nobles in the palace were about to punish the palace maids, they felt pity for the people in front of them who were about to die, so they didn't care about some things and spoke in this tone.

She was so frightened that she fell to her knees in front of the bed.

"Madam, Madam, I'm telling you the truth, I'm telling you the truth." Doctor Peng was so eager to impress Shiyi Niang that she blinked and tears fell. "Our Peng family's rejuvenation pill is a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors. It is passed down to sons, not daughters, and to daughters-in-law, not sons-in-law. No matter what disease you have, you only need three pills. If it doesn't work, taking more won't help either."

Eleventh Lady was stunned.

Doctor Peng cried even louder as she did this: "Madam, I really didn't lie to you. The little princess had diarrhea, and the imperial physicians at the Imperial Hospital had been treating her for more than half a month but couldn't see a cure. It was these three rejuvenation pills that saved her life. Later, the little princess of the Crown Prince's family was unable to stop sputum, also thanks to my three rejuvenation pills."

After she said this, Shiyi Niang actually believed it a little.

Doctor Peng used to be a fortune teller in the countryside, and she was good at reading people's faces. When she saw that Shiyi Niang's face was a little relieved, she immediately said, "I have seen the same disease as the young master before, so I dared to take out the pills. If the young master doesn't get better after taking the pills, you can send me to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If I tremble, I will be a villain."

Shiyi Niang looked at Jiange'er who was crying until he was almost hoarse, and thought of the hidden talents among the people. Most Chinese medicines are mild in nature. She made up her mind and said, "Should we drink each pill three times, or three times in total?"

Doctor Peng was very happy.

The atmosphere in the room was not relaxed.

"Drink each pill three times!" Doctor Peng said earnestly, as if she was afraid that Shiyi Niang would regret it. "I'll go get the medicine for the young master right away."

Eleventh Lady nodded.

Hongwen immediately brought up hot water.

After dissolving the pill, Doctor Peng pinched Jiang'er's jaw and poured the medicine into his mouth.

Jiang'er had a tearful face but he couldn't move. His little body twisted and turned in the quilt, which was wrapped tightly, making people feel uncomfortable just by looking at it.

Eleventh Lady kept telling Doctor Peng: "Be gentle, be gentle!"

Not a drop of the medicine spilled out, and the child was not choked.

Eleventh Lady had some expectations in her heart.

After finishing the wine glass-sized cup of medicine, Doctor Peng walked around the room holding the child diagonally.

"What is this for?" Eleventh Lady asked nervously.

Doctor Peng said, "We have to get the stuff in his throat out." As she was speaking, Jiang'er burped and spit out big gulps of brown medicine.

Everyone in the room was horrified, but Dr. Peng was ecstatic: "It's all right, it's all right, it works."

It turns out that Dr. Peng was just relying on luck!

The thought flashed through Mother Wan's mind, and she had no time to think about it. She hurriedly asked the maid to fetch some water for Jiang'er to change his clothes.

Half an hour later, Jiang'er began to wolf down the milk.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Eleventh Lady hurriedly ordered Qiuyu: "Go to the outer courtyard and tell Chief Steward Bai, and send a servant to guard the palace gate. As soon as the Marquis comes out, tell him so that he won't worry."

The autumn rain left immediately.

Only then did Eleventh Lady realize that there was sweat on her forehead.

She held her son, who had eaten his fill and fell into deep sleep, and took a long breath. She smiled and told Mother Wan, "Go and tell Chief Steward Bai to keep Gu!"

Gu came from her nanny's house. If she wanted to use it, there should be some procedures to go through.

Gu, covering her clothes, knelt down and kowtowed to express her gratitude.

Mother Wan smiled and agreed, and took Gu downstairs. Another maid named Ajin in Jianger's room explained the rules of the mansion to her and arranged a place for her to rest. She sent Xiulian to report to the lady, and Yumei went to the small kitchen to serve food: "The eldest lady is here too, please prepare the dishes according to her usual diet and bring them in."

Yumei left immediately, and Mother Wan saw Amber and Zhuxiang walking over side by side, talking in low voices.

When Eleventh Lady gave birth,

Amber was in the house and Zhu Xiang was outside. The two of them endured for two days and two nights and only went to rest when it was almost dawn. They didn't expect that it would come again at this time.

Mother Wan greeted them with a smile: "Why don't you take a break?"

Amber was thinking about Jiange'er: "Has the Sixth Young Master started eating yet?"

Mother Wan recounted what had just happened in vivid detail, and also exaggerated the role she had played in the incident.

After hearing what was said, the two of them showed joy and said a few words like "Fortunately, Mother Wan is by my side", and then went into the ear room one after another with Mother Wan.

Eleventh Lady was leaning on the large pillow at the head of the bed with a smile on her face, while Zhen Jie'er was sitting beside the bed, looking at Jiange'er with a smile: "...Mother, look at your sixth brother's hair style, does it look like mine?" As she said this, she smoothed her bangs to show Eleventh Lady.

"It's a bit like that." Shiyi Niang smiled. She was a little surprised to see Amber and the others coming in. "You're here so early." Thinking that it was getting late, she asked with concern, "Have you had lunch?"

The two of them saluted Eleventh Lady.

"I had lunch." Then they asked Jiange'er in unison, "I heard that the Sixth Young Master has started breastfeeding?"

Eleventh Lady nodded and said with a smile: "Finally, the bright moon can be seen in the clear sky." This was her true feeling.

Amber and the others started laughing.

Eleventh Lady then remembered something and said to Amber, "If you don't come, I will send someone to look for you." Then she pointed to the chest beside the bed and said, "The list of people for the third-day bath is in there. Check it out and see if there is anything missing. Give it to Mother Du before the wedding."

Amber smiled and replied.

Madam Tian and Yumei instructed the maids to bring in the kang table. Yumei and Xiaoli served Zhenjie lunch on the kang, while Madam Tian served Shiyi Niang porridge on the bed: "… Use black chicken to make soup, then remove the dregs and keep the soup, and use millet, black rice, and glutinous rice to make porridge. Try it and see if it tastes good?"

Shiyi Niang now liked everything she saw, especially the porridge, which was indeed fragrant and delicious. She smiled and nodded, "Give Zhenjie a bowl as well."

Sister Zhen smiled and said, "That was made for my mother..."

"It's a tonic anyway," Shiyi Niang said with a smile, "it won't hurt to eat some."

The two were chatting and laughing, and the first lady and the second lady came over.

"It's time to start feeding!" Infinite joy.

Eleventh Lady smiled and said "yes". Just as she was about to ask whether the Madam had eaten lunch, Xu Sizhen and Xu Siyi came. When they saw the Madam, they both shuddered.

The lady looked at them with amusement and said sternly, "Didn't I tell you to stop bothering mother and come to my place after school? Why are you here again?"

Xu Sizhen and the Dowager Lady were not very close and he was always a little afraid of her. Upon hearing this, he grabbed the corner of Xu Sizhen's clothes and hid behind him.

Xu Sinian looked at Shiyi Niang pitifully and said hesitantly, "We, we will just take a look at my brother and leave. We will go eat right away and won't delay our nap time."

The lady smiled in her heart and said, "Go back quickly after you have a look. Aunt Du is waiting to serve you dinner!"

The two brothers breathed a sigh of relief and ran to the bedside to see their younger brother with a smile on their faces. Seeing his younger brother sleeping, Xu Sizhen was very disappointed and whispered, "Why is he sleeping every time I come?"

Eleventh Lady hugged his shoulders and said, "Because my brother is still young. When he grows up, he will be less sleepy!"

"So grandma is the one who sleeps the least?" Xu Sizhen, who was squeezed next to Xu Sizhen, suddenly said.

Everyone in the room started laughing, even the lady could no longer keep a straight face.

Xu Siyi watched his courage grow and said, "That's right. I saw mother get up and tuck us in last night!"

When Xu Sizhen heard this, he hurried to cover Xu Sizhen's mouth.

Everyone in the room was surprised.

The lady thought of the incident with Xu Sizhen that happened in the middle of the night, and this time Nan Yong's wife was serving in the room, so she couldn't help but look surprised: "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" The others couldn't help but listen.

Xu Sizhen didn't dare to say anything, and the lady looked at him. Seeing that Xu Sizhen didn't say anything, Xu Sizhen pursed his lips, looking like he would rather die than surrender. The lady was both angry and amused.

Eleventh Lady hurriedly said, "If you make a mistake, just correct it. If you know your mistake but don't correct it, and don't tell the truth to the elders, grandma will be angry!"

Xu Sizhen was like a deflated ball: "My fifth brother and I want to make a big lantern for my sixth brother."

"Making lanterns?"

Xu Sizhen lowered his head and said, "I want my sixth brother to die when he is one month old."

I want to give everyone a surprise!

Eleventh Lady put her arm around Xu Sizhen's shoulders and said, "Is this for your sixth brother?"

Xu Sizhen nodded.

"Anyway, he's asleep now, so he didn't hear anything. We won't tell him. So it won't be considered a leak. Don't you think so?"

Xu Sizhen's face brightened as he listened.

"But you can't use your sleep time to make lanterns at night. If you want to do it, do it during the day. If you can't sleep well at night, how can you listen to Mr. Zhao's lectures? If Mr. Zhao knew that you didn't listen to his lectures, I wonder how sad he would be."

Xu Sizhen nodded repeatedly, and even Xu Sizhen nodded as well.

The second wife looked at him with a strange light flashing in her eyes.
