Chapter 316: Zhao Lingxi agrees to the draft, Mai Dong's wedding is imminent
Gao Wanxin didn't have time to be sad, as Lu Yu and Mai Dong's wedding was about to begin.
Due to the request of the old lady of the Zhao family, she was reluctant to let her grandson live alone outside after getting married. She always felt that Lu Yu was still a child, so Lu Yu's wedding had to be held in the Zhao family, and he had to live in the Zhao family after the wedding.
When he can stand on his own in the future, he can leave the Zhao family and live on his own.
Since the wedding was to be held at the Zhao family, the Zhao family had to prepare a new house for the newlyweds.
No matter how new a house is, it needs to be repaired. In addition, the corridor and wooden pillars outside the door of the house need to be repainted.
If you are this busy, it will take a lot of time.
Zhao Lingxi doesn't know how to manage the household, but recently the nanny hired by the old lady has been learning to manage the household. The old lady is too old to take care of it, so she handed the matter of arranging the marriage to Mama Li who is in front of her.
Someone suggested that Gao Wanxin, the daughter of the Gao family, should take charge of it.
The old lady didn't agree.
She said that she was not married yet, and now she was taking care of all these things, which made her a little anxious.
Gao Wanxin heard this and she knew that the old lady was telling the truth, but she was still unhappy. However, she was also relieved and just focused on taking good care of the baby in the house.
Besides, she doesn't like the Zhao family, but that doesn't mean she doesn't like Maidong.
She knew that Maidong was about to get married, but she couldn't go out to see her, so she embroidered a picture of a hundred children when she was free at home, intending to give it to Maidong as a wedding gift for her and Lu Yu.
She spent her time embroidering and taking care of her children.
I don't care about anything else.
The weather was very good that day. Knowing that the wintersweets outside were in bloom, Yu'er took Yi'er out to play. They hadn't returned for half an hour, and Gao Wanxin was a little worried.
Seeing that it was getting late, she put down her needlework and walked outside.
As soon as she walked out the door, she found Zhao Lingxi in the garden, and Yu'er was holding Yi'er not far in front of her.
Gao Wanxin's heart instantly rose to her throat.
"Yu'er, quickly bring Yi'er back. He's hungry."
"I understand, my lady."
Yu'er looked at Zhao Lingxi and said, "Miss, I'm going to take Xiaolang back to the yard first."
Zhao Lingxi didn't say anything. She just looked at Gao Wanxin with a complicated look, not knowing what to say.
Gao Wanxin's eyes were full of vigilance towards her.
Zhao Lingxi's heart suddenly turned cold. Her father must have said something to Gao Wanxin, which was why she looked at her with such hostility.
Never mind. She had already promised her father that she would participate in the emperor's selection in autumn.
The Empress Dowager thought she was suitable, and although there was a selection, she was just going through the motions, because Zhao Lingxi knew that even if she gave birth to Wuyan, the Emperor would still choose her because the Emperor had his eyes on her father.
"I will be entering the palace for selection soon. I may need to go there three months in advance to learn the rules. I'll be asking you to take care of my father."
"Yier, it's actually quite cute."
Gao Wanxin looked at Zhao Lingxi with confusion.
It's only been a few days, how come she has become a different person? There's no trace of the arrogant and domineering Zhao Lingxi in her at all.
Gao Wanxin hesitated for a long time before replying, "Thank you."
"Good luck."
Zhao Lingxi didn't say anything, her face still tense. She turned around and left.
She didn't like Gao Wanxin from the beginning. She was a burden brought by a woman whose husband had died, and that woman was the one her father had arranged to marry her.
What does she want to do by bringing her daughter home now that her husband has died?
Isn't it just that you want to find a good husband for Gao Wanxin by stepping on the Zhao family?
Is the Zhao family so easy to do? Can anyone step on it to get to the top? Zhao Lingxi was very unhappy. Every time he saw Gao Wanxin and her daughter, Zhao Lingxi felt unhappy and wanted to target them, so he spoke harshly.
But now, it is different.
Gao Wanxin gave birth to her father's child, and she was no longer the poor orphan.
And the arrogant and proud daughter of the Zhao family is now going to marry out and give up the position of the powerful woman in the Zhao family.
The poor orphan girl may soon become the mistress of the Zhao family.
Zhao Lingxi felt extremely uncomfortable.
But who could she tell?
Her pride wouldn't let her tell anyone.
Zhao Lingxi turned and left. Gao Wanxin waited until she left before she carefully thought about what Zhao Lingxi had just said. What did she mean by those words?
Does the fact that Yier was almost killed have anything to do with Zhao Lingxi?
Gao Wanxin couldn't think of anything. Just then, Yi'er started crying, so Gao Wanxin went to comfort the child.
In the past few days, she always avoided Zhao Xuan. Maybe she had a knot in her heart and didn't want to sleep with Zhao Xuan. She was also busy making embroidery for Maidong's wedding, so she didn't think too much about it.
Bringing Yier back into the house, Gao Wanxin lifted her clothes to feed the child, but found that Yier was still crying while eating.
Yu'er was watching anxiously.
"Why is Xiaolang crying while he's feeding?"
"Yu'er, go to the kitchen and steam an egg. I'm always low on milk, and I think it's not enough for the baby. It's a good opportunity to stop it."
The baby is already seven or eight months old. The baby grows very fast, but her milk supply was replenished before. But for some reason, it disappeared during this period and is very little.
Gao Wanxin wondered if it was because she was angry that the milk disappeared?
It's not impossible.
Yier, who was extremely hungry, finally ate up all the steamed eggs. Yier didn't like steamed eggs when he was breastfeeding, and he would only eat a little bit. But this time, he ate up the whole bowl of steamed eggs.
"My lady, look at how hungry my young man is. I feel so sorry for him."
"What can I do? I have no milk. It's pitiful for the child. Yu'er, go to the kitchen and see if there is any milk at this hour. If there is, bring some to Yi'er."
Naturally, cow's milk, goat's milk, and horse's milk are indispensable in a big house, but at this hour, it's neither too early nor too late, so they may not be available.
She thought about it and turned around to tell the manager in the kitchen to leave a portion of the fresh milk for Yier every day.
She has no milk, but the child can't stop eating.
Yu'er hurried to the big kitchen.
After asking around, he told me that he was going to make cheese pastries for the old lady in the evening. He had half a can of milk left, so he gave her a bowl.
Yu'er brought it over.
Gao Wanxin said to her, "You know it's for the old lady to make cheese puffs, why did you still want it? I told you to go ask and bring over any that are left. If there's nothing left, forget it. Look..."
Gao Wanxin was talking about Yu'er when she saw Zhao Xuan coming in from outside.
"Yier, don't you have enough milk? Why didn't you tell me? I just came back from my mother's place, and she asked me to ask if there's enough milk. If not, send someone to the farm to get some. It'll only take about an hour, so it won't waste any time."
Gao Wanxin said, "My milk is not enough for the child, so I asked Yu'er to ask. I didn't think of bringing the old lady's milk. My Lord, that's exactly what I didn't want."
