Chapter 215. The First Melon at the Palace Banquet
After sighing, Youyue Stone immediately glanced at Xiaohuahua again. This one was too careless. It had to go back and think about how to let Xiaohuahua start to target its owner.
This matchmaker is really busy...
While everyone was chatting and greeting each other, there was a woman in the crowd who kept staring at Yunhua. She was tormented by her previous thoughts and could not calm down for a long time.
Oh right...
It is said that today is her birthday and she also likes little gold!
She took off all her gold ornaments and stood up suddenly.
"Madam, what are you doing? Sit down!"
Lord Liu tugged at the hem of his wife's skirt, looking somewhat unhappy. If she wasn't his legal wife, he really wouldn't want to bring her into the palace to attend the banquet.
a shame.
He didn't have a single legitimate child, which led to him being secretly criticized by all the officials.
"Just stay here until the party is over. The women can gather together and talk about their children. What are you talking about? You can't even lay an egg."
Lord Liu spoke very harshly. Ever since Madam Liu failed to conceive, he had never been kind to her.
There are three types of unfilial behavior, and the worst is to have no descendants.
Although he had concubines, they were just illegitimate sons and daughters and could not support the family.
His mother had always asked him to divorce his wife and marry another, but he always resisted. To save his reputation, he insisted on being married for seven years before giving her a divorce.
This is because according to Donglin law, if the wife has no children for seven years, the man can raise a concubine or divorce her.
There is only one month left until that day.
Madam Liu's eyes were dark. Over the years, she had been bullied by her husband and mother-in-law, and ridiculed by her concubines, just because she had no children.
"Princess Yong'an said that she was sending it to the Crown Princess... wuwu..." A feeling of suffocation came over her, making her roll her eyes violently, and she almost saw the Crown Princess.
Lord Liu frowned when he saw that she looked like she was about to die.
"What?"
"What are you going to do again!"
Mrs. Liu took a long time to catch her breath. Seeing the disgust in her husband's eyes, she swallowed the bitterness in her heart. She almost forgot that her husband seemed unable to hear Princess Yong'an's thoughts, and she couldn't say these to him.
Madam Liu said tactfully, "I heard Princess Yong'an can tell fortunes. I'd like to ask her to see if I can have children in this lifetime."
Lord Liu understood instantly, his face turned serious: "What's there to calculate? You are a hen that doesn't lay eggs. There is no point in calculating!"
If she could have children, she would have gotten pregnant a long time ago.
Moreover, he always felt that women should stay at home to take care of their husbands and children, and it was inappropriate for them to show up in public. However, he could not resist the fact that Princess Yong'an did have the real talent of fortune-telling.
Even though he admired her abilities, he felt that she stole the men's limelight, and he always looked at her strangely, or even disliked her.
Lord Liu's words were extremely hurtful, and his voice was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention, including Yunhua.
Lord Liu's face darkened.
He felt everyone's gaze on him, and a trace of anger rose from his chest. He reached out and pulled Madam Liu down hard, saying in a deep voice.
"You disgraceful thing! Sit down right now!"
"No!"
Mrs. Liu's attitude was very firm. "If you don't do it, I won't give up!"
She didn't actually want to calculate, but wanted to ask the princess for a favor, even if it meant spending all her dowry and asking for a child, so that she could at least have someone to rely on.
"you--"
Lord Liu looked at her stubbornness, his chest rising and falling with anger. "Whatever you want!"
Anyway, she only has the title of Madam Liu for the last month, so let her embarrass herself!
Seeing that he no longer tried to stop her, Mrs. Liu took a deep breath and walked up to Yunhua.
It was no secret that she couldn't get pregnant.
Madam Liu leaned over to Yunhua and handed her the gold jewelry she had prepared. "Princess Yong'an, can you help me calculate whether I can have children?"
Yunhua was stunned.
She looked at Xiao Jinzi waving at her in front of her and couldn't help coughing. Nangong Yuan felt itchy when he saw her greedy little look.
Just as he was about to move forward, three extremely fast figures pushed his wheelchair away and squeezed out the prince who was sitting next to him.
"Little sister, Third Sister will help you keep the accounts!"
After saying that, Yun Wei moved her hands very quickly and put the little gold into Yun Hua's purse... well... it was full, so she put it in her own pocket first.
"Boss, let Xiao Sanzi pour you some tea. The fortune-telling will definitely talk a lot later, so let's moisten our throats first."
"Boss, let Little Four give you a shoulder massage to help you avoid getting tired!"
Everyone:!!!
They looked at each other, wanting to squeeze in, but in the end they could only stretch their necks and wait to watch the show.
Nangong Yuan and the prince's faces darkened at the same time, and one could almost hear the sound of their teeth grinding.
[Xiao Huahua, wait for me to check.] Without waiting for Yunhua to speak, the perceptive Book of Life and Death went to check the fate himself.
Judge Pen sat on Yunhua's shoulder, looking at these delicious foods and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
It wants to eat it too!
"Stretch out your hand and I'll look at your palm." Yunhua said with a smile.
[Oh my, it's been a while since I've pretended to be a charlatan. Maybe I'll set up a stall in the palace and make some pocket money.]
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Can!
Yunhua doesn't know how to read faces, but she has the strength now. A trace of Yin energy probed into her body, and finally after wandering around her lower abdomen, her brows couldn't help but tighten.
Madam Liu had been observing Princess Yong'an's expression, and that subtle look made her heart sink.
But when she thought about being able to send her child away, her anxious heart gradually calmed down.
Oh my god...
The surprised sound coming from the Book of Life and Death made everyone present extremely alert.
The melon-eating meeting will begin soon!
[Xiao Huahua, this Madam Liu is so miserable and unlucky...]
Mrs. Liu's eyes suddenly widened!
Is she miserable?
Still unlucky? ?
What does Xiao Shushu mean by this? She just can't have children, but it's not that tragic!
[Xiao Huahua, let me tell you, this Madam Liu is always burning incense and praying to Buddha for her child, and she's trying every possible folk remedy. She's really tormented herself...]
Mrs. Liu was secretly worried. It turned out that this was the reason for her misery.
Well, it was not wrong. Originally, its body was very well-proportioned, but it ate too much of these things, causing it to become fat now.
[Hey! Madam Liu always thought it was her own health problem, but she didn't expect the culprit to be Master Liu. His seed is not good and can't make a woman pregnant...]
The Book of Life and Death shook his head and sighed. "Little Flower, tell me, isn't Madam Liu miserable? She's almost driven insane by all the torment she's endured."
Yunhua nodded and said, "No wonder I felt something was wrong when I used Yin Qi to probe her just now. Madam Liu is in good health and seems to have a fertile constitution. How could she not have children?"
Mrs. Liu:!!!
Everyone looked at Lord Liu who was drinking silently, with a look of excitement in their eyes.
Because they knew that Lord Liu had a illegitimate son and a illegitimate daughter.
Lord Liu paused while pouring the wine.
What's wrong?
What's going on?
Why do they look at me with sympathy?
