Chapter 1019: The Birth of Twins
"Bang!"
In Chunhui Courtyard, Guo Ruomei threw a cup of tea on the ground with a gloomy face.
Seeing this, Chu Lang silently dismissed the maids in the room, then stepped forward to comfort her, saying, "Why bother with those little villains? They're just getting angry for nothing."
Guo Ruomei said with a cold face: "I'm not afraid of gossip. I've heard it a lot over the years. But now it involves Yeyang and his wife."
Guo Ruomei felt so angry when she thought about the An family returning to Beijing and spreading the news that she was living in the Weiyuan Palace.
She divorced Prince Heping and lived in Yeyang Mansion. It was fine in private, but it was a bit against the rules when it was made public.
Especially since this involves the royal family.
Before, with the tacit approval of the Duke of Fuguo, the emperor would turn a blind eye even if he knew she lived in the palace. But now that more people are talking about it, it has affected the reputation of the royal family, and the emperor will definitely have opinions in his heart.
What's even more vicious is that the An family not only talked about her, but also brought Chu Lang into the conversation. Even if she didn't return to Beijing, she could imagine how those villains who would make waves even when there was no wind would frame them and slander the Ye Yang couple.
Chu Lang consoled him, "There's no shortage of rumors in the capital. Our matter will gradually fade away after a while."
Guo Ruomei shook her head and sighed, "Others might let it go, but Prince Ping can't help but care about it."
Chu Lang was silent for a while before asking, "Should we tell Ye Yang and his wife about this?"
Guo Ruomei shook her head decisively: "Yiyi is about to give birth. She has had a difficult pregnancy to begin with. We can't make her suffer at this time."
Chu Lang: "I'm afraid Ye Yang can't hide it."
Guo Ruomei also knew that her son had been exchanging information with the capital: "Let Yeyang know." As she spoke, she sighed. She just wanted to spend more time with her son and his family. Why was it so difficult?
Guo Ruomei looked disappointed: "The rice is about to turn five, and we have been here for five years. It's time to leave!"
Chu Lang didn't respond. No matter what decision Ruomei made, he would support her.
Main courtyard.
Xiao Yeyang helped Daohua massage her legs as usual.
Daohua looked at him with a normal expression, took out the letter from under the pillow and handed it to him.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua suspiciously: "Whose letter is it?"
Rice Flower: "See for yourself."
Xiao Yeyang opened the letter and glanced at it. He knew that Daohua knew about the slander against the An family after they returned to Beijing. "Why are you paying attention to these rumors? It's not a big deal, but you are still showing it to me."
Daohua glanced at him and said, "Of course I don't pay attention to other rumors, but this is our family's business. You should have known about this a long time ago, right?"
Xiao Yeyang didn't say anything and continued to massage Daohua's legs.
Daohua snorted, "Why do the An family always do things that hurt others and don't benefit themselves? What good will it bring them if they make enemies with us?"
Xiao Yeyang said coldly, "This time they are not harming others but themselves. The An family is using our family's affairs to divert everyone's attention."
"Everyone's attention is on us now, so naturally no one is paying attention to An Zhixing's unauthorized excavation of the Wei family's gold burial ground."
"This trick of diverting attention is quite clever!"
If everyone's attention is always focused on An Zhixing, the eldest prince's prestige and reputation will be greatly affected.
Also, my father had caused a lot of trouble for the eldest prince and the An family after receiving Daozi's request for help. Now that my mother is living in the palace, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Daohua frowned. "I knew there would be all sorts of conspiracies once the princes' in-laws came to Xiliang. Sure enough, they came so soon. It's true that you can't just sit at home and the pot comes from the sky."
People in the capital are saying all kinds of things now, saying that Xiao Yeyang doesn't serve his biological father, but keeps his biological mother as his own man, and is an unfaithful and unfilial person.
What's worse, they also fabricated a lot of romantic stories about Guo Ruomei and Chu Lang with extremely malicious intentions.
Daohua rubbed her temples with a headache. This was not a easy thing to deal with.
The most important thing is that Prince Ping is involved here.
Although Wang Man'er didn't say it explicitly in the letter she wrote to her, she could imagine that Prince Ping must be very angry.
Seeing Daohua worried, Xiao Yeyang said directly, "Alright, let's just leave it at that. Don't think too much about it. Rumors will eventually die down."
Daohua nodded helplessly. On one side was her mother-in-law, and on the other was her father-in-law. No matter what decision they made, it would hurt the other party. She could only let it go and pretend nothing happened.
Xiao Yeyang gritted his teeth and said, "I will settle this account with the An family sooner or later."
Daohua originally thought that she would have some peace and quiet after the An family left, but she didn't expect that after the An family returned to Beijing, they would still cause trouble for them. It was really annoying.
After this incident, the An family and the Weiyuan Palace became complete enemies.
After entering February, Guo Ruomei came to the main courtyard to accompany Daohua every day. Four maids were on standby at all times, and the wet nurse and delivery room were all ready.
The second time she gave birth, Daohua was not as nervous as the first time.
For fear of scaring Daozi during delivery, Daohua packed up the little guy and sent him to live in Gu Jian's yard.
On February 26th, early in the morning, Daohua was woken up by the pain and pushed Xiao Yeyang beside her: "Xiao Yeyang"
Xiao Yeyang, who was still sleeping, opened his eyes instantly: "What's wrong?"
After the labor pains, Daohua looked better: "The baby in my belly is having a contraction. I might give birth today."
Xiao Yeyang's face changed, he quickly got out of bed, then loudly called the maid in, and ordered someone to invite four maids and Guo Ruomei.
After a while, Guo Ruomei, Chu Lang, and Gu Jian all came over.
Watching the maids and servants busying about in the yard, Daozi, who had come with Gu Jian, felt a little nervous and scared: "Grandfather, is mother going to give birth to a brother or sister?"
Gu Jian nodded and rubbed Daozi's head: "Soon, Daozi will have brothers and sisters to accompany her."
Worried that Daozi would be frightened by the bloody scene of childbirth, Gu Jian took Daozi to Xiao Morong's yard and let the two play in the yard.
This delivery took longer than the rice birth. It was not until mid-afternoon that the baby's cry could be heard over the palace.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The princess has given birth to a daughter."
A quarter of an hour later, another baby crying sound was heard.
"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness! The princess gave birth to a little boy this time."
When Xiao Yeyang and others in the yard heard the midwife come out to announce the good news, they were very happy.
Xiao Yeyang asked anxiously: "Where is the princess? Is the princess okay?"
Midwife: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the princess is fine. She just fell asleep due to the excessive labor."
When the midwife came out with the cleaned twins, Gu Jian's eyes were filled with laughter. He looked at this and that curiously: "Our Daozi's mouth is golden. She said she would give birth to twins, and she gave birth to twins."
