Li's gaze fell on Gu Qingcheng's beautiful face for a long time. She took a handkerchief, wiped the tip of her nose, and covered the corners of her mouth that couldn't help but rise.
When he raised his head again, Li's expression had smoothly switched to anxious mode.
"Imperial Physician! Someone, please go get the Imperial Physician!"
Li's series of voices were like pressing the "start" button, and the entire Weirui Courtyard was set in motion.
Nanny Su knew her master best. When she saw Li's expression, she knew what to do.
She was old and experienced, and when she found out that there were only two people left in Weiruiyuan, she didn't say much, but quietly found someone to arrange a safe maid.
Those who clean clean, those who boil water boil water, and those who prepare food prepare food.
The Weirui Courtyard, which was quiet a moment ago, suddenly became bustling with people.
Zhou Baozhu, who couldn't help but follow Li to Weirui Courtyard, happened to see this "lively" scene.
Li was in charge, and Nanny Su took the lead in the work.
More than a dozen maids and old women were just surrounding Gu Qingcheng.
Afterwards, an imperial physician came in a hurry. Seeing his anxious look, it was clear that he also took Miss Zhou Qingcheng very seriously.
On the other hand, I am also a lady of the Zhou family, but I only have two maids given by Li.
There is no courtyard of my own.
Mrs. Li did say that she wanted Zhou Baozhu to stay in her yard.
Zhou Baozhu felt very unbalanced——
Why?
Even though Zhou Qingcheng is also a daughter of the Zhou family, she can own the best courtyard in the Zhou family, Weiruiyuan. Why does Zhou Baozhu have to squeeze in the same courtyard with her mother?
It's obvious that her mother doesn't value her, which is why she is wronged everywhere!
In her previous life, she was disliked by her mother.
After rebirth, the mother still prefers Zhou Qingcheng.
Zhou Baozhu's memory has actually been affected by her current life.
If she really remembered it clearly, she would find out: In her previous life, Li didn't think much of Zhou Qingcheng, at most she just treated her well for the sake of face.
This time, with the change of Gu Qingcheng, Li began to "pay attention" to this adopted daughter again.
Human memory has the function of self-correction and self-beautification. Zhou Baozhu was reborn with hatred, and her hatred and unwillingness have more or less affected her memory.
"Since you don't love me, I won't be greedy for that pitiful mother's love anymore."
Zhou Baozhu clenched her fists and swore hatefully in her heart.
"Miss, the eldest aunt is back, please come over!"
A little maid came running over.
Zhou Baozhu pointed a finger at herself, "Me?"
You can't blame her for being uncertain, because she is not the only "young lady" in the Zhou family.
If the little maid hadn't mentioned her aunt, Zhou Baozhu wouldn't even dare to guess.
In my previous life, my aunt loved me very much.
Even if I got into trouble, my aunt would help me clean up the mess.
Unfortunately, she was so useless that not only did she end up in a miserable situation, but she also implicated her aunt.
After being reborn, she didn't long for motherly or fatherly love. The only thing she missed was her aunt's love for her!
"Yes, Miss, my aunt heard that Madam had brought you back, so she went back to the Marquis' Mansion just to see you!"
When the little maid saw Zhou Baozhu's appearance, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Everyone said that the young lady who had just been found looked like her aunt, but she still didn't expect that she would think so.
If someone who doesn't know the inside story sees this, they will definitely think that this young lady is the eldest aunt's biological daughter.
As if they were carved from the same mold.
Alas, I wonder how the Marquis’ wife feels when she faces such a daughter.
The little maid was a servant of the Marquis's family, and her elder sister worked in the Lady Dowager's courtyard.
Therefore, her sister witnessed with her own eyes the various conflicts between the Marquis's wife and the Dowager, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, as well as between her and the eldest aunt, the sister-in-law, in the early years.
I heard that when the relationship between these three women was at its most tense, they were almost on the verge of falling out.
Otherwise, the Marquis' wife would not have run to the nunnery outside the city when she was about to give birth.
They say they are going to pray, but in fact they are just avoiding trouble.
At that time, the wife of the Hou family had been in the mansion for three years, but she had not given birth yet.
The mother and daughter, the Lady Dowager and the Eldest Aunt, tried every possible means to force women upon the Marquis.
It is said that Concubine Shen, the most favored concubine by the Marquis, was specially found for him by the eldest aunt. She is good-looking, blessed, and has a good fertility "inherited from her ancestors."
Sure enough, Aunt Shen became pregnant in the second month after she entered the mansion.
It so happened that the Marquis's wife was also pregnant, half a month earlier than Aunt Shen.
Concubine Shen's mother gave birth to four sons in one go. After Concubine Shen became pregnant, experienced women said it was a boy.
The eldest aunt and the lady were so happy that they gave countless supplements to Aunt Shen.
Especially the eldest aunt, who regarded herself as a meritorious contributor to the Zhou family and often bullied the Marquis' wife.
Fortunately, the Marquis' wife was more fortunate. After three months of pregnancy, she asked the imperial physician to check her pulse and found out that she was pregnant with twins, a rare phenomenon. This finally overshadowed Concubine Shen.
Even so, the relationship between the Marquis's wife and the eldest aunt and the dowager did not ease.
As the delivery was approaching, my aunt ran back to her parents' home to make trouble again.
They sent a midwife to Concubine Shen and also prepared a wet nurse for her.
Mrs. Hou knew her situation and did not dare to get angry with her aunt. She simply decided to "avoid the provoke" and ran to Baiyun Temple on the outskirts of the city.
As it turned out, it just happened that just three days after arriving at the nunnery, the Marquis' wife went into labor.
After a flurry of activity, the Marquis' wife safely gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and instantly became the most blessed lady in the entire capital.
