Chapter 245: The Neighbors Get Pregnant One After Another
Wang sat and talked with the old lady, feeling extremely bored and somewhat disheartened.
As soon as he left, the old lady asked Gan Lu to pack another box for Tang Mo. "You really didn't think carefully about what happened today. I'm afraid you were too worried."
Ganlu felt that the old lady was quite contradictory. When the Crown Prince was doing well, she was thinking about the Second Young Master. When the Second Young Master was doing well, she was thinking about the Crown Prince again. In the past, she often gave good things to the Second Young Master's wife in front of the Crown Prince and the First Young Master's wife. Now, she turned around and favored the Crown Prince. She felt sorry for the Crown Prince, as he had offended both sides in all his busyness.
The key point is that except for the second young master's wife who would occasionally send some rare things, no one else in the mansion would spend a penny on the old lady, and the Marquis often wanted to take something from the old lady.
The old lady doesn't have mountains of gold and silver, just the things left by the old marquis. When the old people don't leave some good things in their hands, it will be difficult for their sons to be filial to them.
"In my opinion, we should just redistribute these three boxes. The old lady should keep some for herself. When there are more people in the mansion, she will have to give some rewards. She will also give dowries and subsidies to those who get married."
The old lady thought about it and it made sense. Besides, she had just given money two months ago. She was so excited that she wanted to spend money again. The important thing was that she had no income. "Send it back to the warehouse and give it to her again when the new year comes."
So that you don’t have to give it again later.
Just like that, the old lady who was originally going to give away her wealth gave up the idea after meeting Wang. Ganlu hurriedly sent the three boxes back to the warehouse, came back to serve the old lady tea, and advised her that her children and grandchildren would have their own blessings and she should worry less.
"Didn't the Second Young Master's wife say that there was a new play outside and she wanted to invite you to go?"
"You, just enjoy yourself."
The old lady laughed again, "The second son's wife likes gorgeous and expensive ornaments. Pick out a few nice ones and put them on the treasure shelf. She will be happy to see them when she comes back."
Gan Lu was helpless, "You have given many good things to the Second Young Master's wife, why are you only preparing a few bottles for the Second Young Master today?"
The old lady said, "I give good things to the second son's wife purely because I like them. Do you think there is anyone in the mansion who is willing to spend as much time on me as she does?"
"Give her one or two things occasionally. If she's happy, I'm happy too."
"As for the second kid, he has his father-in-law to help him and he doesn't lack money. I won't say he's better than his elder brother. The older I get, the more confused I get."
What can Ganlu say?
She just didn't understand. Although the old lady looked stingy, she was actually very generous. As long as she was coaxed into happiness, she would be very lenient. Why didn't the Marquis and the Prince come to coax her? If it weren't for the rule that required her to visit her morning and evening, she might not even come for several days.
The Second Young Master’s wife deserves it.
Wang tossed and turned at night and couldn't sleep. She got up in the middle of the night, went to the secret room in the house, took out a box of pearls and decided to give it to Xin An the next day. She thought that as long as the old lady really gave the things away, she could get good things from the storehouse in the mansion to make up for her son.
Fortunately, when paying respects the next morning, the old lady said that she needed to re-inventory the warehouse and would not subsidize the father and his two sons for the time being. Only then did Wang calm down, but she still gave the box of pearls to Xin An and asked her to set them in jewelry.
"What happened next door?"
After lunch that day, Xin An was preparing to take a nap when he heard laughter from the next room. Nan Feng came in and replied, "Xue Yu is back. She just drank concubine tea. Now she is Aunt Yu. The people from Chunhua Courtyard just congratulated her."
"She has a big belly and looks healthy. I can tell she has not suffered much in the farm. Aunt Cai also said that she will definitely give birth to a boy because of her pointed belly."
Xin An thought it was interesting. "Aunt Wang, pick two pieces of jewelry and give them to her, saying they are my gifts. Then compliment her on her belly and say it will definitely be a boy. Make the child sound more precious, because he is the eldest grandson of this generation in the Marquisate after all."
It's good to cause trouble to Tao Yiran for no reason.
Aunt Wang turned around and took out two inexpensive hairpins, found a box to put them in, and went to the next room with a smile on her face. She praised Xueyu's belly again and again, saying that Xueyu was blessed. She also pulled Aunt Cai to say that Chunhua Courtyard would be so lively in the future. She didn't care at all about Aunt Liu's expression which was almost unbearable. Unfortunately, Tao Yiran didn't come out of the room, so she didn't know what she was thinking.
"What happened next door?"
I was half asleep when I heard laughter from the next room. Soon, Nan Feng got the news and came back. "Mrs. Yue retched twice and then said she was pregnant. The palace doctor happened to be checking Mrs. Yu's pulse and examined Mrs. Yue as well. It's been two months."
Xin An
Is Tang Rong a breeding pig? How can he sow so many seeds?
Weren’t you recovering from your injuries before?
Is this playing with an injury?
"Madam Second Young Master, by this time next year there will be three little kids next door. By then, the continuous crying will make our courtyard seem so deserted."
Not to mention Xin An, even Nan Feng couldn't remain calm. When Aunt Wang came back and heard this, she sighed softly, and the look she gave Xin An was full of the meaning of 'you know what I mean'.
Xin An spread his hands and said, "What should we do? Why don't we move to another yard? Out of sight, out of mind."
"Or maybe get a dog and raise it, it will be more fun?"
"Young Madam~"
Chunyang stamped his feet, "It's already so late, why aren't you in a hurry?"
"There's no rush."
Xin An told Aunt Wang, "Tell the people in the yard later, don't hang around the door next door, and don't get into conflict with the people next door. If they say 'stomachache', you can't run away. They are all the bosses now, don't you understand?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Chunlu complained, "We also want to be the boss."
"You have to be patient about this matter. I'm not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?"
"besides.."
Xin An remembered something, "Don't talk nonsense in front of my son-in-law in the future. It makes him so nervous. You guys even say I'm sick when I'm not."
"It's not us, we're here to say it."
"Yes, come on, how can we say these things in front of our son-in-law? We are girls who have not yet married."
"That's right, they all come here to talk nonsense."
Several people sold Lai Lai without hesitation. Xin An laughed and asked, "What did Lai Lai say to the uncle?"
Chunlu is the fastest, "I mean son-in-law"
Chun Yang quickly covered her mouth and smiled awkwardly, "I don't know, we don't know what to say."
Chunlu, who had reacted, nodded repeatedly, indicating that she didn't know, she really didn't know.
Xin An rolled his eyes at them and said, "No matter who said it or who made the wild guess, you can't say a word from now on. If I catch you, I'll find someone with a bad heart to marry you off. I'll beat them eight times a day."
Several people said with fear on their faces that they would not dare to do it again, but they were not afraid at all in their hearts. Didn't they understand their eldest daughter well? How could they bear to see them being beaten eight times a day? However, the son-in-law was sure not to make random guesses anymore.
It's really worrying.
Xin An stretched her back. It didn't matter how many babies the next door had. It was bound to cause trouble if three pregnant women were huddled together. But the next door would move faster, right?
She was getting impatient. After so long, there were only some rumors and no substantial progress. Why was it so difficult?
