Chapter 203 The Summer is Long
In the blink of an eye, summer has arrived, and Wen Mingqian has also moved into the house rewarded by Princess Zhao.
Soon thereafter the eldest princess recognized her as her adopted daughter.
These two incidents caused an uproar in the capital and almost became a household name.
I originally thought that Wen Mingqian left the Gong family, just like a swallow that lost its nest. But who would have thought that they would fly to higher branches.
Liu Cuiyi came to her as a guest. Because she was still in mourning for Zhou Jingsan, she was dressed very plainly and looked very good. Her belly was already very big and she had to be supported when walking, sitting or lying down.
"The baby will be born in more than a month, right? How do you feel now?" Wen Mingqian asked her with a smile.
“There’s nothing except being able to eat. It’s just that it’s very hard to turn over at night, but if I think about giving birth in more than a month, I won’t be able to survive for long.” Liu Cuiyi said while touching her belly, “ I came here specifically to congratulate you on your sister’s move.”
“What’s wrong with you? It’s just a change of place.” Wen Mingqian didn’t care, “I think your life in Zhou’s house is too much. It's settled, no one will cause trouble for you anymore, right?"
"They won't make things difficult for me, after all, they are making things difficult for me now." Liu Cuiyi smiled, "That's fair to say. It's funny, I met Liu Huanchun on the street a few days ago. She didn't say anything when she saw me, she just glared at me and smiled. "
"A person like her is born to suffer losses. Naturally she won't be reconciled if she stumbles with you." Wen Mingqian said, "But since she can't grasp the reason, there is nothing she can do."
"Now my sister is in the limelight. She is prosperous, I think she has to restrain herself," Liu Cuiyi said while gently fanning her fan, "I'm just listening. She said that a few days ago she went to Princess Zhao to tell her sister something wrong, but she was beaten by her. Anyone who said she was talking about right and wrong must be right and wrong. "
As he was talking, Sang Er brought over a plate of freshly ripe plums. Each one was as big as a walnut, with a layer of fine fluff, which was mouth-watering.
“I remember you like eating plums,” Wen Mingqian said to Liu Cuiyi.
"I like to eat this kind of yellow-green one. The ripe one is not good." Liu Cuiyi smiled at San Er, reached out and took out a half-ripe plum from the plate, and smelled it first. , and then took a bite.
Sang Er looked at her round belly and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
She still can't imagine that the child in Liu Cuiyi's belly actually belongs to her uncle Sang Sanyang. These two people were really unrelated to each other, but they actually ended up in the same place. on the bed.
When she woke up again, she found that Liu Cuiyi had grabbed her hand and was touching her belly.
“Just touch and see, he’s kicking me right now!” Liu Cuiyi didn’t feel embarrassed at all, even though Sang Er knew everything about her and Sang Sanyang, and even somewhat awkward.
Sang Er was a little scared and even wanted to retract his hand, but Liu Cuiyi firmly pressed her hand on her stomach.
"Hey, he's really kicking!" San Er felt it immediately, "He's so energetic!"
"You can hug him when he is born." Liu Cuiyi looked at it Sang Er said softly, "He will definitely like you very much."
Sang Er didn't know why, but after hearing her words, his heart suddenly became extremely soft. Yes, they are related by blood, this child is her cousin!
"Sang Er, go and tell Aunt Wu to add a bird's nest cake, a fresh fish soup and cold cut lamb liver to lunch." Wen Mingqian mentioned Liu Cuiyi's favorite food.
"My sister still loves me. I always have to pretend to be a vegetarian in the Zhou family," Liu Cuiyi said, "I can only eat meat when I come to your place." Zhou Jingsan died, and Liu Cuiyi had to do it for him She wanted to keep her filial piety, but in fact, she didn't want to keep it at all.
How submissive she was before, how rebellious she is now.
While they were having lunch, Zhao Pokuang hurried in from outside.
Since Wen Mingqian moved here, she has also come here to work as a helper.
Not only is the work much easier than before, but the wages are higher.
"Madam, I heard on the street that the old lady of the Gong family died." Zhao Pokang said breathlessly, "I was afraid that I heard wrongly, so I asked specifically. She is indeed the old lady of Ruyang House."
Wen Mingqian and others were surprised when they heard this: "How could it be possible? The old lady of the Gong family has always been in good health, how could it happen so suddenly?"
"I don't know about Xingqing." Zhao Pokung said , "Just me If you go to someone’s door to inquire about something like this, they won’t tell me.”
“Sister, why don’t I go over and take a look?” Liu Cuiyi said, “Wait for me at home.”
"No need, I'll go there in person." Wen Mingqian stood up, "Funerals are different from happy events. If there is a happy event for the Gong family, I don't have to show up, but I must be present for the old lady's funeral."
The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to Liujiu Book Bar to read it!
Liu Cuiyi took the carriage with her and rushed to Gong's house.
At this time, the street where the Gong family was located was full of people, horses and vehicles. Apparently, relatives and friends knew about Mrs. Gong's death and came to express their condolences.
Wen Mingqian went directly into the courtyard and met Webster.
When Webster saw her, he couldn't help but burst into tears. He took her hand and said, "I was just about to send someone to report the news to you, but I didn't expect you were already here."
"How could it be so sudden? I didn't want to believe it at first." Wen Mingqian said.
“Don’t say you don’t believe it, even we still feel like we are dreaming.” Webster sighed, “The old lady has been in good spirits these days, and she even enjoyed the flowers with us yesterday!< br>
I got up a little late this morning. I said I was a little tired. I think I was tired from admiring the flowers yesterday, so I asked the little girl to give her a hard beating. .
When I was preparing lunch, I came over to ask the old lady what she wanted to eat for lunch. She said she wanted something light, just a bowl of clear soup and noodles, and she specifically asked not to add sesame oil. >
When I got to the kitchen, the maid from the old lady’s courtyard hurriedly came to see me after finishing my instructions.
I hurried over and when I got to the old lady's room, I saw that she was unconscious. They also went out to ask for a doctor early, but when the doctor came, the old lady was no longer there..."
"This is really sudden. Although it is hard to accept for a while, if you think about it carefully, this is also the old lady. Fortunately, I have not suffered any illness. "Wen Mingqian couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
"Now I can only use these words to comfort the uncle and the second master. Speaking of which, Chang'an has no time to attend the funeral anyway," Webster said with regret. "The old lady talks about him several times every day. Among these grandchildren, he is the one she loves the most. "
"Yes, Chang'an really can't make it in time. Then let me fulfill my filial piety in front of the old lady’s soul on his behalf! "Wen Mingqian said, "You also want to express my feelings. ”
