Late at night, Lin Rui was half asleep and half awake when he heard the sound of rain outside. He was still thinking that tonight was destined to be a turbulent night. He could still remember clearly what the major general had said to him at the Lin family last time. The old general was already in a posture of delegating power. It was estimated that this time Fang Pingshan would be skinned alive if he didn't die.
Of course, from his point of view, it would be better to die.
This evildoer almost caused him to be killed and eaten at Yishu Pass. If it weren't for his golden finger protecting him, he might not even be able to find his shaved bones today.
"ah!"
“Ahhh!”
In the delivery room, Xing Feiyan screamed at the top of her lungs. The midwife beside her wiped her sweat while looking at her birth canal: "Young Madam, please push a little harder. The baby won't be able to bear it if it's kept suffocating inside for too long!"
"Is my father here?" Xing Feiyan's eyes were blurry with pain. She couldn't tell why, but her woman's intuition told her that she had to wait until her father and Xing Lie came.
But the pain of childbirth did not allow her to think like this. Another familiar wave of pain came, making her cry out: "Ah!"
The midwife was also extremely anxious. Thinking about the dirty things that Old Madam Fang and the Young Master had asked her to do, she urged again, "Young Madam, just do this for the good of the child and give birth quickly. If you hold it in for too long, the child will probably be a fool!"
"Ah!" Xing Feiyan tried hard again, and then her whole body collapsed and felt empty.
The only thing that appeared in her drowsy world was the loud cry of her child. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. It was great that it was a healthy child. No wonder it kicked and punched when it was in her belly. It was worth it that she had been tormented by this little thing for so long.
The midwife's face changed drastically when she saw the newborn baby. How could this be? How could this be? Didn't they say it was a daughter?
But the one in front of him is clearly a son. Old Madam Fang wanted to replace the child because of her daughter. Now that the young lady has given birth to a son, how can she resort to such a deceptive trick?
At this time, Fang Pingshan, who knew the gender of the child, clenched the bamboo basket in his hand, son...son!
Xing Feiyan gave birth to a son? Wouldn't the child that Shuxue had induced with all her efforts be a joke?
No, he couldn't let Shuxue suffer in vain!
Fang Pingshan was silent for a long time, then said to the servant beside him, "Call the midwife out."
The servant immediately nodded and went up to call for help.
After a while, the midwife brought the packed young master to Fang Pingshan. When he smelled the blood on the child and the midwife, he frowned and took two steps back.
The midwife didn't mind either. She had been working as a midwife for so many years and had seen all kinds of men!
But now she was glad that she finally didn't have to risk her life doing such a dangerous thing. She happily carried the young master in her arms to Fang Pingshan and said, "Master, the young lady has given birth to a son!"
Fang Pingshan looked at the child, whose eyes were still closed. He couldn't tell whether he looked like her or his own child. After a moment, he handed the baby in the bamboo basket over and said, "Yes, she gave birth to a son!"
The midwife immediately understood what Fang Pingshan meant, and her lips trembled as if she couldn't understand: "Why, why?"
It’s obviously a son, not a daughter!
Fang Pingshan stared at her intently: "Do it, or not?"
"Do it, do it, do it!" The midwife had killed this boat, so there was no chance for her to get down. Looking at the murderous eyes of the young master of the Fang family, she had no doubt that if she refused, she would be killed on the spot immediately.
He deftly swapped the child in the bamboo basket with the one in his arms. Fang Pingshan took a deep breath, looked at Xing Feiyan's child, and tossed it to the servant beside him: "Go and take care of it."
The servant was loyal to him and took the child away without hesitation after hearing this.
The midwife placed the swaddled baby in Xing Feiyan's arms with trembling hands. Xing Feiyan frowned slightly, and the midwife was frightened to death.
Xing Feiyan was awakened by the child's tiny cry, like a kitten's. She opened her eyes immediately, and the maids who were waiting beside her came up to support her: "Young Madam, you're awake!"
"Where is the child? Where is my child?" Xing Feiyan asked hurriedly.
The maid hurriedly brought the child beside her over: "Madam, the young master is here!"
"Child, child, baby, my sweetheart!" Xing Feiyan took the child carefully and lovingly, but frowned when she saw the child's weak appearance. When the child cried in a thin kitten tone, her face immediately changed.
"No, this is not my child!" Xing Feiyan said firmly. She had heard the child crying before she fell asleep. It was so strong and masculine. It was impossible to associate it with the child who cried like a kitten.
So this couldn't be her child. A child she carried for ten months and gave birth to couldn't be this weak!
The maidservant was also anxious, with sweat dripping down her forehead. She was still coaxing softly: "Madam, this is the young master. What's wrong with you?"
"No, he is not!" Xing Feiyan was furious. Her mind was surprisingly calm at this moment. She was not broken or upset. She was just angry. She was angry that someone dared to switch her child.
It is said that mother and child are connected by heart. Now she doesn't have any maternal love for the thin child beside her. How is this possible? She is a healthy person both physically and mentally. How could she stop loving the child she carried for ten months in her arms in an instant after giving birth?
The only explanation is that the child in front of her is not her own child. Where did her child go?
Suddenly she felt cold all over and found everyone in the Fang Mansion suspicious.
Fang Pingshan rushed in and said, "Fei Yan, what's wrong with you? This is our child!"
"No, he's not!"
"You are talking nonsense, take the young master down first."
"No, no one is allowed to report it!"
At this moment, Xing Feiyan's mind was extremely clear, and she seemed to have suddenly come out of the confused love dilemma. She snatched the child in the cradle to her side and stretched out her hand to strangle his slender neck: "Give my child back to me!"
Fang Pingshan's heart was in his throat. He didn't know why Xing Feiyan was so crazy that she was sure that the baby in the cradle was not hers. But the child was his and Shuxue's. If the child was gone, he would be heartbroken, and Shuxue would not be able to bear the blow.
Damn it! How on earth did this woman find out?
Why did this problem arise at this time when everything was planned well?
At this time, Madam Fang outside also knew the reason for Xing Feiyan's outburst. She immediately became weak and fell on the maid behind her. "How is this possible? I have seen a lot in my life. Such things as stealing the dragon and replacing the phoenix, stealing the beams and replacing the pillars are common in wealthy families. It is always hidden from the master by the people around him so that he can take over the magpie's nest. Unless he reports it, it will never be discovered by the master!"
The trusted maidservant had not expected that such a problem would arise at this time. If the young lady continued to make trouble like this, the consequences would be disastrous. Now the Fang family still had to rely on the young lady, and they would never do anything to hurt her. This was really a difficult situation.
