Rong Xi sat down, and the children, perhaps after listening to the advice of their elders, finally quieted down.
"Ze'er's wife, this is my eldest grandson, Qing'er, who is eight years old this year. He is a sensible child and is well-received by the teacher in school."
Rong Xi looked over. The child did look quite smart, but his eyes had been on her since she came in.
She really didn't like the feeling of being stared at all the time, and he could sense that this child had strong intentions.
She didn't understand why such a young child didn't want to stay with his parents forever and was willing to go to someone else's house and be someone else's son.
There are only two possibilities in this situation. Either the child has not understood the true meaning of this at all, or he has already known it, and this is exactly what he wants. In that case, this child is a little too scary.
The child also stood up at this time and bowed to Rong Xi very politely, "Greetings, Auntie."
"Um."
When the second aunt next to her saw that the eldest grandson had finished speaking, she quickly pushed out the eldest grandson who was standing behind her.
"My niece, this is my eldest grandson, Cheng Ge'er, who is six years old this year. He is very well-behaved and filial, and he looks like Ze Ge'er. If he can be filial to his uncle in the future, it will be his blessing."
Rong Xi could see that the child was somewhat reluctant. He was still somewhat unwilling when being pushed out by his second aunt. It was only after his second aunt glared at him that he came out obediently to pay his respects.
"Brother Cheng has met his aunt."
"Um."
The third aunt was not in a hurry. She spoke slowly after seeing Brother Cheng return behind the second aunt.
The voice was not loud, as if he was afraid of scaring the child in his arms who had just fallen asleep from playing too much.
"My niece, these are my two grandsons. The older one is Yu Ge'er and the younger one is Hong Ge'er. They are three years old and two years old."
Third aunt didn't say anything else. She didn't originally want to send these two children over. After all, they were her own grandchildren, and it would be bad for them to be with her all the time.
But the child's grandfather insisted on sending the child here, saying that he would inherit the title in the future.
Rong Xi naturally saw this scene, but she did not refuse immediately. The news that Xiao Qingze had woken up was still kept secret.
If you simply refuse, you are afraid of arousing suspicion.
"All the kids are great, and I think your uncle likes them very much too. When your uncle is feeling better in a few days, I'll take you over to meet him. Then we'll see who can truly become your uncle's father and son."
When the three heard this, they knew that today's matter could not be settled. This was not their first time here, and they were prepared for a long battle.
What she meant was that she would be able to confirm it next time she came.
"Okay, okay, then we won't disturb your rest. We'll go back first."
After the three of them left with the child, Old Madam Xiao finally spoke, "Xi'er, what are you doing?"
Old Madam Xiao originally planned to fool the person back as she did before, but after all, Ze Ge'er is now well, and they will have their own children in the future.
In this case, the matter of adoption is not that important.
"Grandma, it won't be long before the news of my husband's awakening spreads, and then the matter of adopting him will be easily resolved."
"Forget it, grandma is old, you two should make the decision on these matters."
"Yes, Grandma."
"Well, now that Ze'er is well again, you should hurry up and have a child."
Rong Xi's right hand gently stroked her belly under the cover of her left hand. The child was already there.
"Listen to grandma."
Old Madam Xiao was very satisfied when she saw Rong Xi being so obedient and well-behaved. It took her a long time to come back to her senses after watching Rong Xi's back as he left.
Mother Li beside her also had a smile on her face and helped Madam Xiao back.
"Old Madam, don't worry. From what I've seen, Madam is a good person. It hasn't been long since the Marquis got well, and the baby is definitely coming soon."
"Yes, when the old monk said that this woman could bring good luck to the Marquis' Mansion, I was half-believing and half-doubting. Now that I think about it, it's a good thing I listened to the old monk."
"Madam is quite good, but her father is really..."
"Well, let her handle it herself. I think she's a man of courage and knows what's important. Go tell the housekeeper that if Madam needs the money, she can just go get it directly."
"yes!"
.
When Rong Xi returned to the room, she found that Xiao Qingze was not there. She walked to the couch and thought about the two of them's intimacy last night. Rong Xi's ears couldn't help but blush.
All that was in my mind was the image of Xiao Qingzeyong calling Xier in a low voice last night.
"Madam, Madam, something's wrong."
Rong Xi frowned slightly as he watched Cui Guo rush in in a panic. "Why are you so flustered?"
"Madam, there's a woman outside who says your mother was beaten by your father and is now unable to get out of bed. You should go back and see her."
Rong Xi sat down at the table calmly and poured himself a cup of tea.
Cuiguo couldn't understand what the lady was doing and could only wait quietly by the side.
In fact, Rong Xi felt uncomfortable when she heard Cui Guo's words. She understood that it was not her own emotion, but the original owner's.
But you can't panic at this time. The more panicked you are, the more likely you are to make wrong decisions.
"But why is that?"
"No, but I saw that she didn't seem to be lying."
"Well, take a few people with me."
"yes."
When the carriage arrived at the Jiang family's courtyard, Rong Xi heard faint crying sounds.
It sounded like he had been crying for quite some time, and he was still hiccuping. From time to time, you could hear him calling "Mom" in a baby voice.
Chunlan went forward and knocked on the door, but the moment her hand touched it, the door opened.
"Madam, this..."
"Nothing, go in."
This yard was the same as what Rong Xi had seen when he came here. The only difference was probably that there were still some bloodstains left in the east wing.
Rong Xi walked straight to the main house, but saw little Jiang Yunli squatting in the corner with a frightened look on his face, while the person on the couch was either asleep or unconscious, and was motionless.
"Go get a doctor."
Cuiguo answered yes and walked out.
Rong Xi did not go to see the unconscious person on the couch immediately. Although she felt a lot of the original owner's emotions, she just didn't want to get close.
She was too cowardly. She only knew how to obey and never resist. Even if her daughter was to be sold, she would only cry and beg that heartless man.
"Li'er, come here to your sister."
After looking at his sister, Jiang Yunli threw himself directly into Rong Xi's arms. His mother had been sleeping since last night and no matter how he called her, she wouldn't wake up. He was very scared because he heard that if a person continued to sleep, he would be dead.
He was afraid that his mother had died, his father was not at home, and he didn't know where his sister was. In such a big family, he was the only one left, only him!
