In the capital, everyone is worried because of what is happening in the palace, but the Sheng family in Youyang is in high spirits.
Although they knew the news from the capital, they were hundreds of miles away from it, but they were not affected at all.
Li Yuxin, the eldest wife of the Sheng family, is busy sewing winter clothes for Sheng Wei. There is an embroiderer in the mansion, but as a mother, Li Yuxin will still sew new clothes for her three children in winter and summer.
Recently, Hong'er has started to take care of household affairs with Li Yuxin. The eldest lady of the second branch of the Sheng family in the capital helped to find a nanny from the palace, who will arrive in Youyang in a few days.
At that time, the Sheng family will take care of Nanny Lin until her death, and Nanny Lin will be responsible for teaching Hong'er and Yun'er rules and etiquette.
Yun'er was not very interested in her daughter. At first, she played with Li Yuxin and Hong'er for a while, but after being pricked by a needle several times, she cried and didn't want to touch needles and sew anymore.
Li Yuxin did not force her, but let her choose what she likes. At present, Yun'er seems to be very interested in painting.
Yun'er, with a face that looked like a little cat with black and red patches, picked up the painting on the table and handed it to Li Yuxin to see: "Mother, please take a look, is my daughter's painting good?"
Li Yuxin, who took Yun'er's painting, could hardly hold back her laughter. What was this painting about? The leaves didn't look like leaves, and the flowers didn't look like flowers.
However, adhering to the principle of more praise and less criticism, Li Yuxin nodded and said, "Not bad, the strokes are smooth and the colors are appropriate."
Li Yuxin, who was about to burst out laughing, put down the painting in her hand and said, "Mom has something to do." Then she quickly left the room, walked to a deserted place, looked around, and held Nanfeng's hand, laughing so hard that she fell backwards.
In the main room in the backyard of the second branch of the Sheng family in Beijing, Hong Yi Niang, who had gained sixty pounds, was trembling on the pear blossom chair. Although it was already autumn, Hong Yi Niang was still wearing a thin summer shirt.
After drinking a cup of Longjing tea, Hong Yi Niang picked up the milk pastry on the table. Before she could even take a bite, she vomited and doubled over, retching non-stop.
Madam Xu Wen stood up and walked out of the house, saying as she walked, "Please ask the palace doctor to treat Madam Hong."
Mother Liu followed Xu Wen and asked, "Miss, this..."
Xu Wen waved her hand and said, "Is everything okay?"
Sheng Huairen is unable to have children. If Aunt Hong finds out that she is pregnant at this moment, it would be a huge joke. Xu Wen is a little looking forward to it.
The court doctor was quickly summoned, and Xu Wen sat in the side room waiting. A moment later, the court doctor came back with the news: "Madam, the concubine is pregnant, and it has been two months."
Xu Wen waved her hand to let the court doctor leave, and Qiu Ling followed the court doctor out to ask for details.
Qiu Ling closed the door of the room, and only Xu Wen was inside. Hahahaha, Xu Wen laughed out loud, and tears came out of her eyes.
Only after Xu Wen had laughed enough did she call out, "Someone come here."
Lushui came in and bowed, waiting for instructions. Xu Wen ordered, "Go to the gate to welcome the Second Master. If you see the Second Master, invite him over."
Lushui agreed and left. Xu Wen picked up the cup and drank the slightly warm soup, feeling very happy.
She had never thought that Hong Yi Niang was so bold. However, if Sheng Huairen was not capable, Hong Yi Niang should have known. How could she be so bold?
Mother Liu was called in by Xu Wen again and went to Aunt Hong's residence to control the servants so that she could get to know everything clearly.
Hong Yi Niang in the inner room was sitting with an excited look on her face. She wanted to stand up but was stopped by Nan Feng. Just when she was about to scold Nan Feng, she remembered Xu Wen's tricks and sat in her seat rubbing her belly in excitement.
