Chapter 151 The Kitchen
After the clothes were sorted out, the maid took them away and put them away. Mother Yang brought tea and let the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talk.【26nbsp;】
"How long will it take for your mother's second sister-in-law to give birth?" Ms. Xie took a sip of tea and asked as if she had made up her mind.
Yu Zhu blinked, not knowing why he had reached this point, "After all, there are still almost two months left."
"Alas, Concubine Rong in the palace is also going to give birth..." Mrs. Xie said with emotion, "I don't know if it is the second prince or the fourth princess."
Yu Zhu continued to flatter her mother-in-law: "Our eldest mistress is also very fast."
Xie choked up and looked at Yang's mother again.
"The old lady wants to have a grandson." Mother Yang explained quickly and accurately.
Yu Zhu couldn't pretend now and said: Then you go and hug your adopted brother. She smiled and buried her head again and again, just like a shy little daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Xie sighed and stopped looking at Yang's mother. She said to herself, "Is there anything abnormal about your Chukui Houyue letter?"
"Quite...very good."
"Would you like to ask a doctor to come and take a look?" Ms. Xie knew that the daughters from families like Yuzhu must have very good health. What she was afraid of was not this, but that since Mrs. Gong dared to drug herself,
If the guarantee is not complete, I won’t reach out to the second wife’s house.
On the head, after all, what she liked at the beginning was... Well, now that I think about it, the reason why Gong has been infertile for five years since her marriage is very clear. After having a child, she has worries, so how can she do it?
, that Youjia guy will definitely not let her have children...
"There will be... don't worry." Yu Zhu was a little anxious. She knew that Mrs. Xie desperately wanted a grandson. Oh, not only Mrs. Xie, but also the old Duke, Cheng Xunxun and the others were all looking forward to having a grandson from her belly.
The child conceived. The population of the Duke's mansion is really too low. I don't know if the old Duke regretted after knowing the truth that he tried his best to protect the Gong family and ended up in such a situation...
You should never treat your mother-in-law as your mother. This is an irrefutable truth. Although Yu Zhu is getting along very well with Mrs. Xie now, it is different from Mrs. Cui. After entering the house, he has been nowhere to go for four or five months.
This is the situation again. If Ms. Xie is determined to get a concubine for Cheng Xunxun or stops the medicine for several of her cousins to give birth, then there is nothing she can do. Even if she brings it to the Queen, it will be unreasonable.
…
Not to mention that she didn't want to mess up her relationship with Mr. Xie at all. Yu Zhu wanted to assure herself that she would definitely give birth to a baby, but she really didn't want to have a baby so early. Even if she had never studied medicine, she knew that the first child was very difficult.
, there are no caesarean sections here.
Mrs. Xie saw that Yu Zhu's eyes were red with anxiety, and she couldn't bear it in her heart. Forget it, wait a little longer. It would be meaningless to have more children anyway.
However, he still invited Dr. Gu to come over and check Yu Zhu's pulse. He was relieved after hearing that Yu Zhu was in very good health. As long as he was healthy, it would be a matter of time as long as he could give birth. Xie felt a stone fall in his heart.
, I stopped worrying about it and put the topic aside.
Just as he was talking, suddenly a little maid outside reported: "My aunt is here with Master Mo." When Jiang Cunmo was young, he was often sent to Cheng Guogong's mansion. The old man started to like it very much, and even specifically ordered not to allow the maids and wives in the mansion.
The eldest son of the Jiang family is called Young Master, and it is stipulated that everyone should be called Young Master Mo to show their closeness.
Xie's faint smile froze on her face. Mother Yang, who had been smiling all the time, lowered her head and stopped talking. The atmosphere suddenly became weird.
Yuzhu had heard her grandmother Yang say something about the "great achievements" of the Cheng family, but they were all on the surface. I'm afraid no one except the people involved in the Cheng family knew what was so dirty underneath.
After a while, a lady wearing dark blue trousers with pomegranate red and peony patterns came in, followed by a thin young man.
When Yu Zhu was at the Zhixin meeting, she only heard Jiang Cunmo's voice. He was so arrogant that as the eldest son of the Yihou Mansion, he dared to make fun of Princess Qing.
But when I see him now, I really can't think of the wanton and arrogant young man back then. He was wearing a plain royal blue robe, his hair was neatly combed and tied on top of his head, and there were still obvious traces of bruises on his face.
Coupled with his timid appearance, he looked like a bullied little scholar.
Mrs. Cheng bowed with a dull face, then glanced at her son beside her, and Jiang Cunmo hesitantly called out: "Grandma."
Mrs. Xie kept a straight face and said nothing, looking at Mrs. Cheng coldly, as if she wanted to read something from her face.
Mother Yang took a step back and kicked out all the maids serving in the room. Some things should not be known to too many people.
Darling, are these the biological mother and daughter? They look like enemies. Yu Zhu swallowed quietly, shrinking his neck and not daring to speak.
She didn't say anything, but someone came to her door.
All she heard was that Mrs. Cheng chuckled: "The second brother and sister are doing well lately, but we haven't seen each other for several months." Then she turned to Jiang Cunmo and said, "This is your second aunt, why don't you come and see her soon."
Jiang Cunmo looked at Yu Zhu, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Please greet my second aunt."
Yu Zhu was very uncomfortable with the naked look in his eyes, so he looked away, "No need to be too polite. I didn't expect you to come today, and I didn't prepare a meeting gift."
"What kind of meeting gift are you preparing? We are not relatives." Ms. Xie interrupted coldly, simply because she did not want to recognize her daughter and grandson.
Yu Zhu sees that the momentum is not good. If you continue to listen, you will have to get involved in this matter. It is better to withdraw. If you want to satisfy your curiosity, you can find other ways. After that, you have a choice whether to intervene or stay away. Fight.
After making up his mind, Yu Zhu suddenly slapped his head and exclaimed: "Oh, I almost forgot, the soup I stewed for the second master is still in the kitchen. I'm afraid it's time to add some medicinal ingredients. I'll go take a look.
.”
Mrs. Xie calmed down and replied: "Go ahead. I forgot to tell you just now. The Queen Mother's birthday is coming soon. It's time to start worrying about preparing birthday gifts. Go back and think about it. Don't come to my place tonight."
Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and stepped back. When he walked to the door, he heard Mrs. Cheng's voice from behind: "The second younger brother and sister are so lucky. You love her so much..."
Walking to the corridor, he took the maid he had brought with him and was about to leave. Suddenly he felt something strange. He turned his head and met the sizing eyes of a daughter-in-law. Yu Zhu rolled his eyes and looked at the maid following behind.
You know the clothes are not from the Duke's palace, they must be the maids and servants of the Jiang family brought by the Cheng family... so bold...
Yuzhu paused, raised the corner of his mouth with a smile that was not a smile, and looked back coldly, looking at the fifth prince who was fighting for the throne with his cousin and even creating a Gong family to make him afraid. Even if he was a man of both civil and military skills, he was
Yu Zhu doesn't have the slightest fondness for this handsome man who is tall, majestic, and has an extraordinary conversation, let alone his jumping and cheerful mother.
Hua Ruo, Ruan's mother, and the others who followed next to them had already frowned in displeasure.
The daughter-in-law was obviously a little surprised when she saw such a formation. She didn't dare to look at it. She put on a flattering smile and lowered her head humbly...
The Jiang family has become the grasshoppers after the fall...
After telling the lie unintentionally, Yu Zhu thought about it and decided to make soup. She never liked leaving loopholes, and making soup didn't take a long time anyway. She just sent a maid to guard the stove.
As I was about to reach the big kitchen, I heard a lot of noise coming from inside, mixed with the sound of women screaming and the sound of broken porcelain.
"Which song is this...?" Ruan's mother opened her mouth in surprise. She knew that there was a master who instigated the maids to cause trouble in the kitchen, but now the population of the Duke's mansion is simple, there are only a few masters, how can we count them?
It doesn't look like he's going to cause trouble.
Could it be that the mothers are fighting in the kitchen?
Yu Zhu's face turned gloomy. Not long after she had tidied up the big kitchen, someone dared to act recklessly. Did she think she had not punished them seriously? She signaled everyone to slow down and walked forward.
"...Ha, don't laugh so hard. What's the rule? You don't have to make such nonsense when you bully our aunt and she has fallen out of favor." I saw two women in pink standing next to the big rectangular table in the middle of the kitchen. They wore double hairbands and looked sideways.
Not even her face, but her complexion looks fair.
A mother on the stove, her head still wrapped in cloth, said cautiously: "Miss Linlang, you have wronged us. No matter how courageous you are, you don't dare to deprive your aunt of her food."
"Humph, I don't dare." There was a crisp sound, and another plate was killed. Looking at the broken porcelain on the ground, there were already many plates, and the plates were ruined. "I told you not to dare." The maid named Linlang clapped her hands,
He sneered and said: "In front of you
I don’t feel too anxious to say this to my face. In the past, I was the one who served my aunt’s meals. How good is that? What kind of things have been given these days? Are those things for human consumption or for feeding animals?
No, you dare to fool me."
Thinking about it made me angry again, so I touched another pile of bowls and smashed them. From the corner of my eyes, I saw a few pots of vegetables for the maids to eat next to me. I snorted coldly and stepped forward to lift them up. I pointed at the noses of those mothers with my hands on my hips.
He scolded: "I've blinded you. Even if our aunt gives birth to a young lady, she is still the eldest young master's eldest daughter. There is no way you can tolerate the eldest daughter of the Duke's family who is so tight."
Finally, a mother blushed and couldn't help but said: "Miss Linlang, you have to be reasonable. Tell your conscience, according to the aunt's example, can Aunt Chen eat so many vegetables every day?
It’s almost time to catch up with the young mistress. These days, Japan has been pressing
The rules are here. You also have to be considerate of us. The articles of association set by the second wife are very clear, and the daily accounts must be recorded clearly and occasionally need to be reviewed. There is really nothing we can do." If it's okay, who would?
Offend these favored aunts.
Linlang stamped her feet and shouted: "You are not allowed to add food after adding money. Who made this rule?"
"But Aunt Chen added money to the food for the first time." Someone murmured below. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and reward. Your support is my biggest motivation.
