Qiao Xin strongly suggested not to live with her son and daughter-in-law. In order to protect her son from criticism, she simply arranged a house nearby so that she could see them.
If someone asks, it's because the old lady likes quietness and doesn't want to be disturbed too much.
Other mothers-in-law like to control their sons and daughters-in-law and interfere with their lives at will. Qiao Xin doesn't have this bad taste.
From the moment she asked Nanny Qin to teach Xu and Zhang how to be an official's wife and manage the harem, she had already begun to plan to live separately. As soon as Qiao Yunxin and Qiao Yunqing settled down in their respective places, Qiao Xin sent their wives over!
For fear that they would be blinded by wealth, she would find a concubine or second wife for him. For fear that they would not be confident enough, she would give each of their daughters-in-law a shop to rely on. Based on this alone, Qiao Xin was an excellent mother-in-law.
But this person is never satisfied.
Fortunately, Xu was careful with her words and deeds, but Zhang showed her how poor people get rich. How poor people get rich suddenly, and how they act like a fool.
Wearing silk and satin, with dozens of servants, he looked down upon the common people and bullied them because of his wealth and power.
In the heart, she ignored the doctor's advice and got pregnant to win the favor of the emperor, plotted the marriage of the third lady, and indulged her brothers from her natal family to use the power of the Qiao family to ruin her husband's reputation. Despite Qiao Yunqing's repeated restraints, she still didn't care.
If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant, Qiao Xin would have severely punished her.
She would not waste her energy and time on her daughter-in-law. Instead of correcting her mistakes, she should spend more time on the second wife, Sanniang, and Sanlang.
As for the second brother and his wife, as long as they don't do anything to harm the Qiao family, it's their business to do whatever they want behind closed doors!
During this time back in Yuncheng, apart from meeting Lao Er once, Qiao Xin made it clear that she didn't need them to come over and greet her like they were punching in every day!
He came early, and I had to get up from bed and wash myself, just to deal with those few formal greetings? And then catch up on some sleep?
Are you worried about losing money after all this trouble?
It would be more practical to spend more time with your wife and judge more cases.
As for Zhang, don't bother her. If she gets miscarried by accident, wouldn't it really be her fault?
Zhang's pregnancy is not good and she will most likely be born prematurely.
, she was already very poor in health, and I finally managed to get her back to full health. I repeatedly told her not to have children in the next two years, not to have children. What a pity...
Qiao Xin is determined to nip in the bud all factors that are unfavorable to her.
She forgot to greet him, and she would not let her serve him. Nowadays, Qiao Xin would not let Zhang do anything that a mother-in-law could ask her daughter-in-law to do.
Don't let him wander around in front of you.
She was just about to write a sign to Zhang: "Don't get close to me!"
Qiao Yun understood what Qiao Xin meant, and invited all the famous doctors in Yuncheng to come and check Zhang's pulse every day to ensure that both mother and child would be safe.
But no matter how much you try to prevent yourself, you can't prevent Zhang from committing suicide.
"Oh mother, please save her!"
In broad daylight, Qiao Yunqing, wearing his official uniform, held Zhang in his arms, and stood in front of her house in a panic. Dark red blood had soaked Zhang's dress. Zhang looked in pain, and her face was as white as a piece of paper.
Seeing her looking over, he shrank back and called out softly: "Oh mother!"
In this situation, Qiao Xin knew that she had no chance to give up.
You two live next door, did you walk into the wrong door? But looking at Qiao Yunqing's helpless look, although he is already a father of two children, it is also the first time for him to see a woman giving birth, so it is obvious that he is unsure.
Qiao Xin sighed, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Why don't you come in? Where is the doctor and the midwife? They are still in your house. Since you sent them here, call them over quickly!"
"The steward has already made arrangements and will be here soon!"
Qiao Yunqing escorted the people to the west wing. Nanny Shi and the maids changed Zhang's clothes, and then the doctor and the midwife came over. Without saying a word, they went in and got busy.
Qiao Xin had someone go and prepare hot water for the ginseng soup.
In this rush, there was no time to think about so many things. Fortunately, Qiao Xin liked to be prepared, and now she had all kinds of herbs and things at home. It was also convenient to find them.
There was no sound from Zhang from the inner room, and Qiao Xin had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, not long after, the midwife and the doctor came out with a troubled look on their faces and asked him: Should we save the older one or the younger one?
Qiao Yunqing's face was pale to begin with, and now he looked even weaker.
This was a difficult choice. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound for a long time.
He didn't know whether the people inside were alive or dead, but he was in a dilemma.
Qiao Xin did not embarrass him and asked directly: "If you have to choose between the two, then of course there is no need to say it. There is no ready-made living person for this child, so naturally my daughter-in-law is more important! Don't give up when you are forced to do so. If you have to choose one, do your best to save my daughter-in-law."
The midwife was startled, then reacted and immediately crawled in. She was still muttering: No wonder people outside are saying that the governor and his wife are so loving, it turns out that the root of the problem is this!
Qiao Xin turned around and sat on the chair, closing her eyes and saying nothing.
In fact, it was the first time that he took the initiative to communicate with the system. He really couldn't let Zhang and the baby in her belly get into trouble in front of him.
Regardless of whether the system has a solution or not, you should always give it a try to have a clear conscience!
"There are pregnancy-preserving drugs, but the merit points required are extremely high! How much skill does it take to bring two lives back from the brink of death?"
"Stop talking nonsense, if you have any, take them out quickly. If you need more merit points, just tell me. If you don't have enough, I'll owe it to you first!"
"Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier? Fifty thousand merit points, minus the thirty thousand you have now, you still owe twenty thousand. Don't worry, host, you won't lose anything. As long as the woman is still breathing, we can save her."
Damn it, that idiot. I've worked for him for so long, but I still owe him 20,000. The 30,000 merit points that were deducted were also earned by her hard work in supporting the development of Yuncheng herbs and porcelain during this period. She directly and indirectly provided tens of thousands of people with more ways to make a living.
It was originally intended to be used to exchange for high-quality tea tree varieties, but now it has all been spent.
Qiao Xin said that she didn't feel bad, that was a lie.
This life is really unbearable! Once this matter is resolved, she should stay away from the second brother's family.
How about going to see the third brother?
While Qiao Xin was thinking about where to go next, she whispered to Qiao Yunqing, "Second brother, I have a medicine that may save your wife and child, or it may not work. Do you want to try it now?"
