Lin Zhixiu felt very tired after pointing at Li Cheng and scolding him to vent his anger.
Li Cheng's attitude was extremely good. He speculated that He Qing was causing trouble and immediately rushed to the east courtyard to deal with her.
Lin Zhixiu grabbed him and refused to let him go.
This matter is obvious: if you are serious, you will lose completely first... Oh, just take your time.
The next day, Mrs. Liu came to the palace. When she entered the door, she said that Mr. Yao, the fourth wife of Lin, gave birth to a boy just yesterday evening.
"The fetal position is not exactly right, but it took a while. Fortunately, the midwife I hired was good, and the fourth aunt's body is in good health! Otherwise... I don't know what would have happened! Finally, we are safe and at ease!" She said
He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lin Zhixiu quietly, "It's just that you went yesterday and I didn't have to receive you. Those... servants, weren't they rude?!"
This can be regarded as an apology in disguise. This Mr. Liu still has some eyebrows.
"I don't care about little things. Are the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt happy now?" Lin Zhixiu asked openly and with a smile.
Mrs. Liu felt relieved, "I'm so happy! My fourth uncle was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear! He was trotting all the way back from the front yard! The old man was also happy, and he was flipping through the book to name the child!"
"I even asked someone to tell the old lady...hehe." Ms. Liu also secretly laughed.
Lin Zhixiu was even happier, "Grandma must be very happy to have a new baby in the family! How is the third aunt?"
"I haven't woken up yet. My third uncle has arranged for people to take care of me, so I can't ask too many questions. It turns out there aren't many people left in the yard. My mother-in-law's family didn't even come to ask..."
Oh, the Huang family has too much to take care of!
"When I came, the old man specially sent someone to tell me to bring a message to the queen. When the second sister gets married, you have to go back."
"Sister-in-law, just bring the message here. As for whether you can go back or not, it depends on the prince."
"Hey! Madam, the old man is getting older, so he likes the crowds and bustle. For this matter, he sent two groups of people to deal with it! If you are not free on the wedding day, you must come when you recognize the bride!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled but did not finish her sentence.
"It just so happens that the little cousin born to my fourth aunt is also going to have his third baby shower! As an aunt like you, good gifts are indispensable!"
"Oh, that's true!"
——Princess Cheng was satisfied with the battle and planned to pursue the victory, so she asked Grandma Wang to give something to Wu Dong. She wanted to "open a mansion".
It means: As a princess, you have to formally entertain guests at home!
When she was still in the boudoir, she held many social activities and was considered one of the best in the capital.
Therefore, the content given to Wu Dong is very detailed.
For example, the date, location, features, number of people invited, approximate scale, things to be prepared and possible expenses are all clearly written in categories.
Wu Dong got it and gave it to Li Cheng.
Li Cheng has been extremely distressed these days!
Originally, he didn't even want to sleep in the bed! When he got in, Lin Zhixiu kicked him out.
Later, he resorted to a cruel trick. When Lin Zhixiu kicked him, he pretended to fall under the bed and lay there silently for a long time...
Lin Zhixiu thought it was really broken, so she stood up and took a look... He was on the snake beating stick with his teeth cracked. Fortunately, he could sleep on the bed, although... he couldn't do anything!
He didn't have room to vent his anger. When he saw this, he threw it on the ground and said, "What the hell! Tell her, I don't have time! Tell her to be honest!"
When Wu Dong replied to the letter, he still rounded off his words, "The prince said that there have been many things going on in the court recently... Our house should not be too lively. We can only talk about it later..."
When Princess Cheng received the letter, she became angry again and said to her nanny and maid, "Who said that if you want to do anything, you can just submit it directly to Wu Dong? This..."
Grandma Wang could only advise: "Princess, please don't be angry. This matter is a long-term matter, even for the generation of your children. Don't think that it will be solved in ten and a half months. So, you
You can't be angry yourself, otherwise, with your old appearance and poor health, won't you completely give others an advantage?"
Princess Cheng was breathing heavily there. It might not last long. It just depends on what letter came!
———— Lin Zhixiu did not go to Lin Zhirong’s wedding. When she came back, she took a photo of her.
The newly married Lin Zhirong's expression was indifferent, and he was not as elegant as in the past. The groom Wang Xiao was not bad, and he was very polite to his family.
The fourth aunt's newborn son was quite ugly. But she still gave him a pretty good jade pendant lock.
Days passed day by day, and suddenly one day, Old Mrs. Li came and went directly to the outer gate of the west courtyard.
Lin Zhixiu was a little puzzled and quickly asked Beifei to pick her up.
Old Mrs. Li's steps were brisk and she had a smile on her face. "Bless your Majesty, don't blame me for coming in a hurry and not telling you in advance."
"What did Aunt Li say?! I'm so happy that you came! What's the happy event? You're smiling like this?!"
"I have good news to tell you! Mrs. Zhang, you are pregnant!" Old Mrs. Li smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes.
"Oh, this is really good news!"
"It's fair to say! When I first looked at her, she seemed to be a child-bearing child!" Mrs. Li expressed her pride in her forward vision.
"Haha, your vision is definitely not wrong!" "Haha! After having Li Feng, I feel completely at ease!"
"Dongyun, go prepare a gift and let Aunt Li take it back later!"
"Oh, my dear, you're welcome. I'm here because I want to tell you about this happy event. And secondly, I really want to trouble you!"
"Why are you so polite to me? Tell me!"
"It's like this. Mrs. Zhang is pregnant. She is a bit fussy and picky about food. She is not used to eating many things. As for Mrs. Wu, we simply let her build a small kitchen in her courtyard and asked her to find a cook. At home
Those who buy meat and vegetables can allocate a portion to her yard."
Lin Zhixiu nodded after hearing this, guessing that Zhang was having a lot of fun, so that was fine.
"Then, Mrs. Zhang said she wanted to eat bird's nest! Originally, I bought some at home. I am not used to it, so Jingxiang brought it to me, and I swallowed it. Haha! But this time, Zhang
Shi said the one at home was not good, but she said... she wanted some blood swallow."
Haha, now that she is pregnant, she will have confidence, and of course she will be able to do all kinds of tricks.
"Mr. Wu just bought some more blood swallows, but Mrs. Zhang... tsk, look at what that means... do you understand?!" Old Mrs. Li was also a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry, she has a lump in her stomach right now." Lin Zhixiu said with a smile.
"Oh, it's a bit annoying. If it weren't for my eldest grandson's face, I wouldn't accept her. Mrs. Zhang said she wanted money to buy it outside. But I thought, she doesn't understand either. I'll give it back later.
I'm confused! So I came out to ask...Originally, I was going to your uncle's place. Mr. An and Mrs. An must know about it! Then I thought about it again, so I just came to your place to ask you, and also bring along some information.
I have this good news for you!"
"You're the right one! This is a small matter! I'll just let Mr. Wu do it. The package is definitely the best and the price is the cheapest!"
"That's great!" Mrs. Li clasped her hands together.
"Let Mr. Wu take a look. I'll get you some from the storehouse at home."
"That's impossible! Just ask Mr. Wu to help check it. It's impossible to do anything if you reach out!"
"I'm also happy that Brother Li is having a baby! Besides, families like ours will give these to each other."
Old Mrs. Li still shook her head, "That can't be done!"
"But... Aunt Li, you still have to see, does Mr. Zhang want good quality blood swallows? Or does she just want the right to buy from outside? This is different!"
"Ah?" Mrs. Li blinked, "You mean, they want to handle the money?"
"Is this possible? Sister Wu can take care of the housework, and the things she buys must be good and reasonably priced. Mrs. Zhang is not willing, maybe because she is worried about Sister Wu. It is also possible that she will buy them outside.
, the prices vary quite a bit!”
Old Mrs. Li hesitated, "Isn't that good?!" She thought for a while and then said: "Actually, I was very good to her. When I got the letter, I went to ask her questions and gave her two thousand taels of silver and how much.
A piece of jewelry. I heard from Li Feng that he also gave it to me. Alas, this Zhang... I didn’t even expect that you reminded me. Otherwise... let her do it by herself? Save the trouble!"
Lin Zhixiu said: "Why don't you take some from my treasury first, and then you can see what she thinks. If she gradually wants the stewardship and money, you can think about what to do."
Old Mrs. Li said: "As long as she gives birth to a son, I won't care about this with her! Sooner or later, the Li family's property will belong to the grandchildren!"
Lin Zhixiu nodded, but sighed in his heart. The previous division of wealth and power seemed good...but in fact there were hidden dangers, that is...which family the eldest grandson came from!
The eldest girl Zhang may not be able to figure it out, but the second girl can definitely think of it! Being too thoughtful and energetic is really troublesome!
