Gu Qingling didn't need to explain this at all, the eldest maid Chun Qian knew it in her heart.
Therefore, her body and legs became weak and her whole body trembled a little, feeling like she was about to be buried with her.
She felt like crying. She always thought that the old lady was wise and mighty, but she never expected that the old lady actually did a lot.
Wuwuwu...this vote is comparable to smallpox!
Wait, the old lady said she was going to give birth, doesn’t that mean that the old lady was already pregnant before the smallpox outbreak?!
Going to jail while pregnant, going to Beijing while pregnant, meeting the emperor while pregnant,...
The eldest maid Chun Chun didn't even know how Gu Qingling "hidden" it all this way.
If she wasn't about to give birth, wouldn't the old lady have told her?!
This time, the maid's spring legs were shaking even more: "Old... old, old lady..."
"Don't be afraid, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. We want to live together and die together. Since I don't want to die, I naturally can't fall in love with you to death, unless you are not strict with your mouth and reveal this matter.
"
The eldest maid trembled in spring, and thought to herself: Wuwuwu... this pot is a bit big, the smaller one can't hold it!
She felt that she had really been tricked by her master this time, but she couldn't give in and let anyone know, otherwise she would be blamed for everything.
The baby feels miserable and has nothing to say.
From this day on, the eldest maid Chun had one more thing on her mind.
Obviously, her mental quality was not as good as Gu Qingling's, and her genius was revealed by her competitor, Mother Chen.
When no one was paying attention, Chen's mother asked her in a low voice: "What's wrong with you? Why do you look worried?"
"No, what do I have on my mind? You are wrong." Chuntian, the eldest maid, denied it.
Chen Ma frowned: "Spring, if you have something to say, just tell me, and I will help if I can. You have to hide it, and if something happens, I won't be able to help you. You are not the one who follows the rules here, old lady."
I don’t know, if you lose your mind and make a mistake, you won’t be the only one who will be punished.”
The eldest maid Chun Chun looked up at her.
Just when Chen Ma thought she could speak, she heard Chunchun say: "I don't know why you think I have something on my mind. Maybe it's because I've been too tired recently. I traveled from Yunyang City to Beijing, and from Beijing to Yunyang."
City, and now I have to go to Jinling... I have been rushing and haven't had a good rest. My nerves have been tense, just afraid that something will happen."
He just refuses to admit that he has something on his mind.
Mother Chen looked at her face steadily for a long time, and then said: "You are right, everyone has been on the road recently, and it is indeed very hard. You are running here and there with the old lady, so you are worried.
It’s a little more than everyone else, so it’s normal for you to be tired. If you really can’t hold it anymore, you can tell the old lady, or let me help you share the burden in private, so that you can feel more relaxed.”
"Okay, if I can't hold it in any longer, I will definitely tell you." The eldest maid Chun Qian had a smile on her lips, not revealing any flaws.
After Chen Ma left, the eldest maid Chun Chun breathed a sigh of relief, returned to Gu Qingling, and told Gu Qingling what Chen Ma had asked her about.
Gu Qingling was thoughtful.
"Old lady, do you think Mother Chen saw something?" The eldest maid Chun Chun looked worried.
She couldn't see that it was normal. She was an unmarried girl, and the count had died early. She wouldn't think about it in this regard, but what about Chen Ma?
Mother Chen is someone who has been here for a long time. She has given birth to children and is perfect in every aspect. What if people see it?
"You can see it or not, what are you afraid of? Call Mother Chen in and I'll talk to her." Gu Qingling said calmly.
"Ah?" The eldest maid Chun Chun was stunned and advised, "One less person knows, and there are fewer risks. I think..."
It would be safer if one less person knew about this kind of thing.
Gu Qingling glanced at her and said, "I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, nothing will happen. Call her in."
"yes……"
The eldest maid was a little hesitant in the spring, but she had no choice but to go out and call for help.
When Chen Ma heard that the old lady was looking for her, she was very active. She arranged the work in hand and came over immediately.
After the eldest maid invited Chen Ma over in the spring, she stood guard outside the door to prevent anyone from approaching these houses.
In the room, Gu Qingling did not talk about her pregnancy as the eldest maid Chun Qian thought. Instead, she asked Chen Ma about her recent arrangements. After traveling for so many days, did everyone still tolerate it? Should they walk slower or stop for a day?
Take a break.
Mother Chen naturally answered all questions.
"I've noticed that you don't look very worried lately. I'm very worried in the spring. I thought you were tired. If you really feel tired, don't hold on. Just tell me that we can rest for a day or two before leaving.
It's okay. It's just right," Gu Qingling said, "We are now in the town, where we have convenient food and accommodation, but in a few days we will be in the wild mountains, and there will be no place to rest if we want to."
Only then did Chen Ma realize that the abnormality on Chun Qian's face was because she and her master had talked about her in private.
She smiled and said: "It's okay, maybe I've been tired from traveling recently. If the old lady hadn't said that I haven't felt it yet. I asked the slave to tell me that the old lady has a bodhisattva-like heart and is considerate to the servants. Otherwise, would my face look good?
Who knows, even the old lady noticed it."
Gu Qingling laughed: "Although you haven't been with me for a long time, my yard is under your control. If you have something, they won't mess up. I don't care about you. Can you do it? That's how you get when you get older.
I'm not as angry as young people, and after a little hard work, I feel that my physical strength is a bit too much. Not to mention you, even me, running around like this, feels exhausted. If I hadn't been in a hurry to go to Jinling for something, I wouldn't have wanted to rush it.
urgent……"
After talking about it, Gu Qingling's smile faded a little, as if she thought of something worrying.
As a loyal slave to her lord, Chen Ma was naturally concerned. She said: "I don't know whether I should ask, why is the old lady rushing to Jinling in such a hurry? The uncle and the second master were all here before.
After trying for a while to persuade the old lady to go with them, the old lady didn’t even agree..."
"Alas..." Gu Qingling sighed and said, "Actually, it's nothing. I just had the doctor look at my body before and said..."
No words were spoken, but the hint was obvious.
Mother Chen's expression suddenly changed: "What's wrong with the old lady's body? Didn't the house ask for Ping'an Pulse? Why didn't you hear that there was something wrong? Old lady, did you make a mistake? You are in the capital.
Didn't the imperial physician also see it when I was there?"
Gu Qingling took a deep look at her and said: "If an ordinary doctor could see it, would I still be in a hurry to go to Jinling? In fact, it was the 'miraculous doctor' who caused my problem. We made an agreement at the beginning and agreed
He gave me some time to go see him at that time. I originally had plenty of time, but I didn’t expect to be slandered and sent to jail, and I encountered smallpox again. After we came back from such a long life, time was a little tight.
"
She also said that she did not tell anyone about this matter, not even Uncle Yao or Second Master Yao, and asked Mother Chen not to tell anyone.
How dare Mrs. Chen go out and spread the word? She responded one by one.
