Chapter 341 Invitation
In the afternoon, Manager Lu got the news that Song Baiqing had taken Mudan back to the Song family and made her his concubine.
Concubine, that is a title that can only be held by a girl with an innocent birth. Now Song Boqing actually gave this title to a maid he redeemed from the maid academy. This...
Mrs. Zeng hated the fact that iron could not be transformed into steel. She patted her thigh and said helplessly, "I'm afraid the Song family will be doomed this time."
When Xia Zihan heard the news, she smiled happily and asked Chu Lin, "How is Song Huai doing?"
"He was just dragged out of the wine cellar. He seems to be ill." He was still very ill.
"The housekeeper of the Song family was looking for the doctor everywhere. After getting the news, Mrs. Pei anxiously gave a hundred taels of silver to the personal nanny and asked someone to go to the doctor's house to invite him. She said she was willing to pay three times more silver."
"Humph, she is afraid that if Song Huai dies, if Mudan gives birth to another son, she will lose even more status in the Song family, right?"
Xia Zihan curled her lips disdainfully.
Chu Lin thought so too.
"Master, Mudan went to the Song family, so what happened between her and Song Baiqing and his son will be exposed sooner or later, right?"
certainly.
Xia Zihan curled her lips and smiled.
Her purpose in planning all this was to expose the fact that Song Huai and his son shared a daughter, so that they could make a fool of themselves and become notorious, so that they could start a new feud and kill each other.
When she told Pei the address where Mudan lived, she expected that Song Baiqing would definitely take Mudan home.
And Song Huai, who is wearing the appearance of a hypocrite, will definitely not be able to resist looking for Peony...
Once Song Boqing discovers that his woman and son are messing around together, will he still be of the same mind as Song Huai?
Humph, she was looking forward to it.
The next day, Chu Lin brought back news that the mother-in-law next to Pei had gone to trouble Mudan and pushed Mudan. Mudan fell. Fortunately, the doctor who diagnosed Song Huai at that time had not left yet, so he treated her. In time, the child in Peony's belly was saved.
Song Baiqing was so angry that he wanted to divorce Mr. Pei.
It was Mudan who came forward to intercede, and Song Baiqing spared Pei.
However, the death penalty can be forgiven, but the living crime cannot be escaped.
Song Baiqing sold all the wives bought by Mrs. Pei, and even sent away the maids around her, and replaced all the servants around Mr. Pei with those bought by Song Baiqing.
From then on, Mrs. Pei was confined in her own yard by Song Boqing, and it was said to the outside world that she was eating fast, chanting Buddha's name, and praying for the Song family.
After hearing Chu Lin's report, Xia Zihan sneered, "As expected, Zi Xiao's father, as a sanctimonious hypocrite's father, is indeed not a good person, even worse than Song Huai."
"Master, Crown Prince Song hasn't woken up yet. I heard that the fever is severe. He won't be burned into a fool, right?" Chu Lin said worriedly.
If Song Huai becomes a fool, won't her master lose a lot of fun?
Xia Zihan told her, "Go to the master and get a Qure pill to give to him. Tell him that grandma is worried about him and specially gave it to him."
Humph, how could Song Huai become stupid?
If he becomes stupid, what will happen to her revenge?
Who should I report to?
What can a fool understand?
……
Song Huai took the pills sent by the Chu family, and his fever went away quickly. It took more than an hour before he woke up.
After being ill for just a few days, he lost a lot of weight, as if he had shed a layer of skin. Song Baiqing felt very distressed when he saw this, and specially ordered the kitchen to stew chicken soup to replenish his body.
However, Song Huai heard the maid's discussion and learned that after Mudan was brought to the Song family by Song Boqing, he felt bitter after eating the bowl of chicken soup. After taking a sip, he could no longer drink it.
Soon, Song Huai learned that his biological mother was under house arrest by his father. He wanted to say a few words for his mother, but he shut up when he heard that it was his mother's fault that caused Mudan to almost miscarry.
It was the mother who did something wrong and should be punished.
If he goes to plead for mercy, his mother's maid will harm Mudan, so he can't plead for mercy.
Mudan once said that based on the days, the child in her belly was probably his.
That was his child, the child that Peony and he created together, and he couldn't lose it.
With Song Huai thinking like this, he selfishly pretended not to know that Pei was under house arrest.
After Shi Wenting learned that Mudan had moved into the Song family, she felt bad. She didn't feel well after eating, and couldn't sleep at night. She always tossed and turned in bed all night, keeping her eyes open until dawn.
Fortunately, she gained wisdom after every hardship, and this time, she was more tolerant than Mr. Pei.
After seeing Pei's trouble with Mudan, Song Baiqing put her under house arrest, and she became even more reluctant to attack Mudan.
No matter how much she hated it, she gritted her teeth and endured it.
Because of the two mistresses of the Song family, one was under house arrest and the other was trying not to have an attack. For a while, the Song family became quiet.
Song Baiqing stayed with Mudan every day and never went anywhere. Song Huai was in bed recuperating from illness. Shi Wenting was still as before, taking care of the daily chores at home, but she didn't have much free time.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the Lantern Festival.
Xia Ziqing came over and said she was inviting Xia Zihan to play on the street. "Last year, because of the refugee incident, we didn't dare to go out to play on the street on the Lantern Festival. I heard that this year, several princes were engaged to be engaged. The emperor and the empress were very happy and even ordered the adults in charge of organizing the Lantern Festival. We need to do it vigorously.”
"There must be a lot of people on the street today, and it must be fun. Second sister, please come with us."
Of course, she would specially invite Xia Zihan for several reasons.
The second uncle said that there were many people on the street and he was afraid that they would be in danger, especially Zi Lan, who was young and easy to deceive, so he didn't want them to go out to play.
She and Zi Lan begged for a long time, and finally the second uncle said that if the second sister went, let them go.
The second sister has many guards around her, so they will definitely be protected.
The Xia family didn't hire any guards, and they didn't have many maids and women, for fear that they wouldn't be able to take care of them.
Also, she had a lot of money during the Chinese New Year. It happened to be the Lantern Festival and she went to the streets to see if there was anything to buy. If the money was not enough, she might be able to borrow some from her second sister.
Xia Ziqing smiled and had another calculation in her heart.
Xia Zihan frowned.
Because he was hunted down during the Shangyuan Festival the previous year, Xia Zihan was much more indifferent and less excited about going out to play on the streets during the Shangyuan Festival.
However, seeing that Nuanyusicao and the others really wanted to go, she agreed to Xia Ziqing.
Xia Ziqing smiled happily and said, "Second sister, I will go back and prepare first. Fourth sister and I will come to pick you up in the evening."
Xia Zihan said calmly, "No, the Xia family is not close to here. Let's meet at Juxiang Tower."
"Okay, as Ermei said."
Xia Ziqing left happily.
In the evening, after Xia Zihan had dinner, she said goodbye to Mrs. Zeng, and then took all the maids with her. Even Aunt Yu followed her excitedly, leaving only Mother Cui, who was too old and unwilling to move around, to look after the yard.
Mrs. Zeng said to Hongmei and Qingya, "You little girls are going too. It's only once a year. Don't stay at home with me, an old woman."
Hongmei seemed a little hesitant and worried about the old lady.
Mrs. Zeng waved her hand, "I have your aunt and two little bullies here. I can't be lonely here. I don't need you to accompany me. Go ahead and go out to play."
The twins are over half a year old. The second one has a cold temperament and remains unshakable no matter where he is. The presence of the old god is as reassuring as an old monk meditating.
The third child, on the other hand, is restless. He can climb very fast when placed on the hot bed. If no one is watching, he will become extremely skinny.
Once, Mrs. Zhuo deliberately put him on the kang alone, and then stood aside with a group of maids and wet nurses to see how skinny he could be.
As a result, after crawling on the kang for a while, he threw the teacups on the kang table to the ground one by one.
Hearing the crisp sound of breaking porcelain, he found it very interesting and danced happily with a smile on his face.
Later, he couldn't see the teacup anymore and threw it on the ground whenever he saw it.
In just half a month before and after this year, he threw away three sets of Zhuo's precious tea cups.
Madam Zhuo was so angry that she ordered the steward to buy ten sets of cheap ordinary teacups and let her son throw away as many as he could.
Maybe he had thrown enough, and the third child lost interest in throwing teacups, but he liked tearing up books.
When I see something made of paper, I will be excited to tear it up, and then I will happily smile with a cute face to please Mr. Zhuo.
Zhuo was so angry that her teeth itched, but she was reluctant to hit her youngest son.
What's more interesting is that the second child doesn't like to talk or move, but the third child likes to challenge his majesty. Once, he suddenly rushed over, holding the second child's hand and chewed it.
The second child didn't cry. He raised his other little paw and slapped the third child on the forehead.
The third child was in pain and cried like a wolf, howling like a ghost.
But the third child is just a bitch who likes to be abused. After the pain in his forehead stops, he will challenge the majesty of the second child.
This time he pounced on him and bit his face directly.
The twins have already grown incisors, which are painful to chew on regardless of whether they are light or heavy.
The second child felt pain and curled his lips, but did not cry. He stretched out his little paw and pushed hard. The third child fell to his knees, and then cried loudly again.
When the pain stopped, the second child got into a fight with the elder brother, either holding his hand or gnawing his head, but he always got slapped hard by the second child.
The more times she slapped her, the thicker her skin became. She was no longer afraid of being hit. Sometimes she would fight back and slap her back with a big slap. The unscrupulous lady Zhuo was looking at her with bursts of joy and she was not allowed to do anything to the maid. Go and pull them apart.
Mrs. Zeng looked at her twice and scolded her for being unscrupulous.
While cursing, he also sat down to watch the cute scene of the twins beating Huanshi, with Le's lips grinning to the back of his ears.
Then, the old and the young fell in love with watching the twins fight.
No, after dinner on the Lantern Festival, Mrs. Zhuo and the twins stayed in Mrs. Zeng's house to amuse her, and drove a group of young maids such as Hongmei and Qingya Yuejin out to play.
After Xia Zihan led a large group of people to the street, she left the maids to play by themselves. Only two people, Chu Cong and Nuanyu, were left beside her, as well as four guards headed by He Donglin.
