Aunt Qin's belly is already very big, and her face is also much plumper than when she first entered the house.
But she is not ugly at all. She is pregnant, her eyes are full of autumn and peach blossoms, and she has a very charming charm.
She knew some words since she was a child, but she didn't read much.
Mr. Xu was a bookworm and never left his hands with books every day. He was friendly to others and would often teach her how to read and write.
Aunt Qin was waiting by her side and she learned some simple poetry. Even now, she can already make a few simple paintings.
"Master, you are resting at home today, why don't you go see your wife!" Aunt Qin asked cautiously, "The waiter said that she has been suffering day and night, and she has lost her appearance."
After hearing this, Mr. Xu sighed and said: "I have already explained what should be explained. She did not educate her children well, and she has to swallow the bitter fruit herself."
In fact, it was not easy for the third master. Xu Daoqing and Xu Chunsu were also his children.
"Having said that, we are a family after all, and it is good to be in harmony," Aunt Qin continued to persuade, "There are some things I shouldn't say, but I'm afraid it will be too late if I don't say them."
"That's right, why do you have so many worries." Mr. Xu knew that Aunt Qin was sensible, and the most important thing was to understand the general situation.
"My wife is in very bad health now. If I hadn't cursed her, the fifth girl will leave the court in two months. If my wife is in a bad situation before then, the fifth girl will have to stay for three years.
"Xiao," Aunt Qin said, "not to mention what unpredictable things will happen in these three years, how many people can afford to waste these three years?"
No matter what, Mrs. Wei is Xu Chunjun's aunt, if she dies before Xu Chunjun gets married, Xu Chunjun must observe filial piety.
You can only get married after the three-year filial piety period has passed.
Nowadays, the Zheng family is already in ruins. In three years time, we don’t know what will happen.
If he fails to catch up and the old lady on the other end dies, Xu Chunjun will become an old girl who cannot get married.
Aunt Qin knew that the men in their third house were all out of date, and she didn't even know the gender of the person in her belly. The quality of Xu Chunjun's life was very important.
Therefore, he said to Mr. Xu: "If we persuade her, my wife will only become more wary. After all, it is better for me to come forward and offer a few words of comfort, which will be more profound than other people's words. If my wife feels at ease, her health will naturally be better."
"
"You are right." Mr. Xu had never thought of abandoning his first wife. "Although she is hateful, she is also a pitiable person."
Then he said: "If you are inconvenienced, please don't follow me. I'll go over and take a look."
In fact, there is no need for Third Master to give orders, Aunt Qin herself has to be more careful.
With Wei's current state of mind, there is no guarantee that he will not do anything extreme.
At this time, Xu Chunjun was in the room of his second sister-in-law, Mrs. Song.
Xu Song was feeling better than the previous days. He was leaning on his mother's arms and eating the crispy fruits Xu Chunjun bought for him.
"I heard from the wet nurse that Brother Song has no fever anymore." Xu Chunjun said to Mrs. Song with a smile, "Children will become more sensible when they are sick. I almost broke into pieces when I saw Brother Song talking.
."
"That's right. When I woke up this morning, I said I was hungry and wanted to eat." Her son's illness was relieved, and Mrs. Song's mood naturally improved. She said to the maid beside her, "Give half of the snacks that the fifth girl bought to Bai."
Brother will send it to you."
"If you have Brother Bai, please ask someone to take it over. This package is just for Brother Song." Xu Chunjun said.
"Look at me, I'm so confused! You've never thought so carefully that everything is shared by the two nephews. Fifth sister, I've been tired these days," Ms. Song blamed herself and praised Xu Chunjun, "Thanks to you
, otherwise I’ll split it in half by myself, and I’m afraid I’ll be too busy.”
"Second sister-in-law, you're welcome. They are all family members. Besides, I have nothing to do." Xu Chunjun smiled softly. She has been a kind and gentle person since she was a child.
"Zi Ling will get married in a few days, I'll give her..." Song Shi was only halfway through his words when his eldest grandma Yang walked in.
Xu Chunjun and Mrs. Song were busy giving up their seats, but Mrs. Yang said: "I came over there and heard the third master and the third wife arguing. The eldest wife and the second wife went to burn incense at the Golden Temple, and the two masters went to the Yamen again. Let's go there.
Please advise!"
When Mrs. Song heard this, she quickly handed her son over to the wet nurse and rushed to Mrs. Wei's side with Xu Chunjun and Mrs. Yang.
As expected, the noise was already heard before entering the door. Several servants were standing far away, but Mrs. Song drove them away.
"Take down the curtains! Open the windows! It's so gloomy, and the intentions are getting more and more evil!" Mr. Xu ordered his men to light and ventilate the Wei family's house.
But Mrs. Wei hugged the bed curtain tightly and begged, "No! Only in this way will the fourth girl come back. It's too bright and she's afraid!"
Xu Chunjun saw a puppet made of needlework thrown on the ground. A red cloth was nailed to the chest of the puppet with the birth date written on it. It was obviously Xu Chunsu's.
It turned out that Mr. Xu came to visit Mrs. Wei, but found that she was trying to summon Xu Chunsu's spirit, so he quarreled with her.
"Isn't the third wife not very conscious?" Yang whispered to the two of them, "It looks scary."
Mrs. Song sighed helplessly, and Xu Chunjun walked forward slowly and pulled out another doll from under Mrs. Wei's bed.
This puppet looked even scarier. Not only was it covered with needles, it was even stained with blood.
After seeing this, Master Xu became even more angry. He pointed at Mr. Wei and cursed, "You are so ungrateful! You are confused and stupid!"
The blood-stained puppet and the birth date on its chest clearly belong to Xu Chunjun.
It was obvious that Wei wanted her to die. But there was no good way to do it, so he used this nightmare magic to deal with her.
Xu Chunjun's expression did not change. Of course she knew that the Wei family hated her, and she also knew that this method was of no use.
But Wei grabbed her and pounced on her like a she-wolf.
Mr. Xu quickly moved to block her, fearing that she would hurt Xu Chunjun.
"Fourth girl! You are finally back!" Mrs. Wei stared at Xu Chunjun, her face full of joy at having lost and found her, "Good boy, I miss you so much! Don't leave this time, just stay with your mother!"
"Third Madam, this is..." Ms. Yang took half a step back in shock. Ms. Wei mistook Xu Chunjun for Xu Chunsu. She was obviously crazy.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
After saying that, she turned back in panic, climbed into the bed, and dragged out a box.
Then he happily opened it, and there were some gold and silver jewelry inside, as well as a few silver notes. He stuffed them all into Xu Chunjun's hand and said, "This is the dowry my mother saved for you. They are all yours!"
These things should belong to the Wei family. Now, she regarded Xu Chunjun as Xu Chunsu, so she gave them all to her.
