421: Liu Wuniang gave birth, lotus flowers bloomed

Days passed one by one, and Su Zhi lived a peaceful life in Fuyuan. However, when she was free, she would think about the things happening at Zhang Dafu's house. She thought that Zhang Dafu must have ordered people to monitor the Zhao family closely. If Aunt Yue made any move, she would be targeted by Zhang Dafu. If she really dared to do what they wanted, it would be the time for her to destroy herself.

Su Zhi sometimes thought that Aunt Yue was truly an extraordinary country girl. She was born in the countryside, but because of a fortune teller's words, she was sent to a nunnery and separated from her family for more than ten years. She used her own scheming to get the wealth and glory she wanted, and she could even think of such a method of grafting. She was extremely bold. When she thought about her experience, she wanted to applaud.

Regardless of whether Aunt Yue was kind or vicious, her life could be written into a storybook that would attract readers, but she was destined to be a tragic figure.

Su Zhi thought that if she had not met herself, she might have had a different ending.

Su Zhi would shake her head and smile every time she thought of this. She didn't know how many people's lives had been affected and how many people's destinies had been changed by her appearance. But she was sure of one thing, that is, she made many unfortunate people happy, including her husband and her children. This was the most gratifying gain for her coming to this world.

"Sister Su Zhi, what are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so happily?"

Wang Xiuyun asked Su Zhi. She came to tell Su Zhi that a large vat in the workshop was broken and she needed to buy another one. She heard Liu Yin say that Su Zhi was by the pond, so she came over and saw Su Zhi sitting in the pavilion, holding a needle and thread in one hand and something in the other. But she was not moving, but smiling there, obviously distracted. She immediately came over and asked with a smile.

Su Zhi heard Wang Xiuyun calling her. She put the things in her hand into the basket beside her and said with a smile: "Sister Xiuyun, come and sit. I was thinking about my Xiaori and Yueyue."

"Really? Are you still thinking about your man? You can't fool me."

Wang Xiuyun said with a hearty smile. She had an expression that said, "I'm also a married woman, you can't fool me." Seeing Su Zhi blushing, she smiled even more happily.

"See. I told you that you missed brother Zi'an, your face turned red!"

"Okay, Sister Xiuyun, please sit down. What's going on?"

Although Su Zhi blushed, she was not the kind of young wife in ancient times who would bow her head and be speechless for a long time when embarrassed. She quickly adjusted herself and smiled at Wang Xiuyun, pointing to a stone bench beside her for her to sit on. Su Zhi was still very kind to these women who came here.

Wang Xiuyun sat down and told Su Zhi the purpose of her visit. Su Zhi nodded and said she would make a note of it.

"Girl, what did you do? It's so beautiful."

After Wang Xiuyun finished speaking, she did not leave in a hurry. She looked at the things that Su Zhi put in the basket beside her and found that it was a pair of small shoes made in the shape of a tiger's head. They were not even as long as a finger, small and cute. She liked them very much when she saw them. She thought that Su Zhi was really clever and could make such fun and beautiful shoes.

Su Zhi thought that there were no tiger-head shoes here, so it was normal for Wang Xiuyun to be surprised when she saw them. Seeing that Su Zhi was staring at them, she took out the pair of small shoes and showed them to her.

"These are tiger-head shoes. The daughter-in-law of Mr. Zhang in the town is about to give birth. I thought I would give her some clothes and shoes for the baby as a token of my appreciation."

"You are so clever and smart. Look how beautiful these shoes are. I have never seen such beautiful little shoes. The son of Madam Zhang is so lucky."

Su Zhi smiled and said nothing.

Wang Xiuyun was playing with the tiger-head shoes, and as if she remembered something, she said, "Speaking of giving birth, I remember something. Sister, do you remember the Liu family in our mother's village? They are the family of Si Niang's uncle. Didn't the girl Liu Wu Niang from his family marry into the family of Landlord Li? She gave birth to a girl last month. Don't you think Landlord Li would be disappointed to death? He wanted to have a grandson!"

Su Zhi said, "There is nothing wrong with the girl. When the time comes, we can marry a son-in-law. He will still be a bloodline of the family. It all depends on whether Landlord Li is willing to accept it."

"That's right, sister. This girl is pretty good."

Wang Xiuyun smiled and said, if every family had a girl as capable and smart as Su Zhi, none of them would be willing to marry off and would stay at home to be the pillar of the family!

Wang Xiuyun chatted with Su Zhi for a few more words and then left. She still had to work. Even though she was familiar with Su Zhi and Su Zhi treated them kindly, she couldn't just take her wages and slack off. She still had to understand this.

Su Zhi saw Wang Xiuyun leave, so she picked up the unfinished tiger-head shoes and started making them. However, she stopped after making a few stitches, looking at the lotus branches in the pond that had grown taller. She thought that Liu Wu Niang had given birth, and Lian Hua was about to give birth. She was carrying the flesh and blood of the Li family, but now she was going to be a fake young master of the Zhang family. This was really too ridiculous. Landlord Li must be going crazy thinking about his grandson. If Lian Hua gave birth to a boy, and if the rich man Zhang found out, the child would not be able to enter the Zhang family, and would have to be taken to the Li family.

The Zhao family are all money-loving people, so they must have thought of this.

Compared to being a fake young master of the Zhang family, he is still a bastard, and there will be more children in the Zhang family in the future. This child may not get all the property of the Zhang family. The Li family is much better. Although the Li family is not as rich as the Zhang family, if he becomes a young master of the Li family, then he will own the entire Li family.

Su Zhi smiled, thinking that there might be something exciting to watch by then.

Su Zhi really understood the Zhao family. When she thought so, the Zhao family also thought so.

Zhao Yuanbao met someone he knew on the street. He did not hide but could only stand there and talk for a few words. Then he heard the news and told his parents and wife when he got home.

Zhang said that if Lianhua had married into the Li family and given birth to a boy, then their Zhao family would have become truly prosperous.

Zhao Yuanbao said: "The Zhang family is richer than the Li family. It would be more promising to be a young master of the Zhang family."

Zhang glared at him and said, "He is a fake young master, living in fear all day long, and he is also a bastard. He will have to share the family property with so many people in the future, and that is when the eldest sister is favored. If not, he will be given a room and a few acres of land. It's not like I haven't heard of such things before."

"Shut up! My little sister is very capable. As long as we have a son, she will definitely become the principal wife. Then the whole Zhang family will belong to them. Isn't it better than ten Li families? Don't say it's going to rain just because the wind blows here. It's really useless."

Zhao Yang took a look at Zhang and decided that she loved her eldest daughter more. The fortune teller had said that she was destined to be rich and wealthy.

Old Man Zhao also said, "Don't tell me. If I don't have a child to take back, let alone whether she is living well in the Zhang family, Su Zhi will have to tell her story, and then I will have a hard time. So no matter whether the baby is a boy or a girl, I have to take it back. As for Lianhua, she can still marry someone else in the future."

What Old Man Li thinks is that if Lianhua goes to the Li family, she will be a widow. No matter how rich she is, it will not be a good life. It is better to marry a good man and have her eldest daughter to help. Then she will definitely live a good life, which is no better than being a widow. But he didn't say it out loud, which made Lianhua who was listening outside think that everyone in the family was facing her sister. She touched her belly reluctantly. She didn't want to go to the Li family to be a widow, but her family asked her to give up the child for her sister, and she felt uncomfortable.

Since she was a child, her parents always missed her elder sister who was not at home, and they kept all the good things for her. She could only watch as they visited her once a year and brought her all the good things. They would take away many good things each time, such as beautiful clothes and shoes, and sometimes even a silver pin and a silver bracelet, not to mention the copper money that the family had saved for a year.

Lianhua thought it was all because of her sister that her family lived in such poverty when she was young, and that was why she longed for all the good things because she could clearly have them, but couldn't.

Thinking of this, Lianhua returned to her room, hugged her big belly and sat on the bed. She became more and more angry. She slapped the bed hard, wondering why she was so unlucky?!

"Aiya!"

Lianhua groaned. She had just exerted so much force that her stomach started to hurt. She wondered if she was about to give birth, so she immediately called for her parents.

Zhao Yang and the others were talking in the room when they heard Lianhua calling them. They did not move and ran over immediately. Zhao Yang asked Zhang to push the men out. She asked Lianhua a few questions and lifted her skirt to take a look. She knew at a glance that the baby was really going to be born. She asked her son to ask the midwife to come, and asked old man Zhao to prepare the carriage. Aunt Yue lived not far from here, and the child must be sent over when the time comes!

Immediately everyone started moving.

Lianhua was the first child, and she was young, but this child was big. She suffered a lot, giving birth from day to night, and she had used up all her strength. Finally, she gave birth to a boy. The whole family was very happy. Then they had someone wrap the child up, put him in a carriage and sent him to Aunt Yue.

Everything was going smoothly, and it was night, which made it more convenient to do this.

Aunt Yue found a fortune teller, who said that her home was inauspicious and that she needed to live on the east side of the house to resolve the problem. After the fortune teller calculated her location, she moved to the county town.

The yard was full of Aunt Yue's people, so she would pretend to be giving birth and have someone bring the baby in. No one would ask any questions, and in this way, without anyone knowing, Lianhua would become Aunt Yue's child.
