Chapter 271 The old lady's birthday
Song Baoling comforted the queen, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry so much, the queen mother will definitely handle these problems well."

"I know some medical skills, maybe I can relieve the empress's worries."

The queen's nose was sore, and her mood seemed to become more volatile since she became a mother.

"Actually, the roots of those illnesses are all fine. What I'm worried about now is my stomach." The queen unbuttoned layers of clothes until her inner garment was exposed.

Song Baoling had an inexplicable bad premonition, and sure enough, when the queen lifted up her underwear to reveal the same stretch marks as Yun Dan, it was as if a firework exploded in her mind.

The fetus is too large, stretch marks, these are exactly the same as Yun Dan's situation, the queen is in the imperial tomb, and concubine Leng actually has means to harm the queen.

"I have had stretch marks on my stomach for more than a month, but they still haven't disappeared. I'm afraid that if the emperor wants me to sleep with me..." the queen became worried.

If this is discovered, it will be a great crime to deceive the emperor.

Song Baoling held the queen's hand instead to comfort her, "Empress, don't worry, I will find a way to deal with stretch marks."

The queen was moved in her heart, "Just tell me if you have anything to do in the future, and I will try my best to help you solve it."

"Thank you Empress." Song Baoling reminded before leaving, "Empress should be more careful with Concubine Leng in the palace."

After Song Baoling left the palace, he went to the street to buy things for the old lady's birthday, and even invited the famous song and dance troupe in the capital to perform and so on.

Song Mochuan saw that she arranged everything in an orderly, practical and proud way, and also realized that her daughter had grown up, and she was no longer the little dumpling she used to be.

The old lady was overjoyed when she heard about this, and gave Song Baoling some gold and silver jewelry.

Hou Rui was jealous while enjoying all the conveniences pregnancy brought her.

On the day of the old lady's birthday, the mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and red ribbons were fluttering. The guests who came were all old friends Song Mochuan had made in the early years, as well as some dignitaries.

Hou Rui felt uncomfortable looking at those noble ladies and noble ladies, but Song Baoling stole the limelight before her.

Unwillingly, she also wanted to get closer, but Song Lianxin frowned and pulled her back, "You are pregnant now, don't run around."

Hou Rui was overjoyed, this was the first sentence Song Lianxin took the initiative to say to her since she entered the mansion.

"It's not good for others to see it." Song Lianxin's next sentence threw her into the ice cellar again.

Does this mean that she is shameful, that she is disgraceful?

Hou Rui's face immediately became aggrieved, "I am also from the Hou Mansion anyway, what's wrong with going out to meet the guests."

"It's enough to have Ling'er and Dad here, and you don't need to join in the fun." Song Lianxin squinted at her, full of warning.

Hou Rui bit her lip unwillingly, Song Lianxin thought she had listened to it and left her alone.

At the door, Jun Tingsheng came to visit with a gift. Song Mochuan originally wanted to entertain him, but Jun Tingsheng walked directly in Song Baoling's direction without even looking at him.

"Linger, this is a gift for the old lady, and this is a gift I brought you." Jun Tingsheng took out a small box.

Song Baoling took it over in surprise and opened it. It turned out to be a finely carved jade pendant with two bells on it, which would make a crisp sound when shaken.

"Wow, thank you little uncle, I like it very much." Song Baoling accepted it with a smile.

At this time Zhou He also came, walking straight in the direction of Song Baoling.

Seeing this, Song Mochuan immediately stopped him, "Young Master Zhou, please come here."

Zhou He saw that it was Song Mochuan who immediately presented his congratulatory gift, and all of this was seen by Hou Chunhong's shining eyes not far away.

After the welcome is over, these congratulatory gifts are placed in the warehouse.

The maids and servants in the mansion were all busy in the kitchen in the front yard, and the warehouse was simply locked.

Hou Chunhong quietly came to the warehouse, the thief Mimi looked left and right, and took out a wire to pick the lock after confirming that no one was there.

It didn't take long for the lock to be picked open, and the pediatrics of lock picking were a piece of cake for her.

Over the years, she has used this method to obtain money a lot.

She casually opened a gift, which contained either gold and silver jewelry or ginseng and rare medicinal materials.

She grabbed a handful and stuck it to her face, murmuring drunkenly, "Baby, these are my babies, tsk tsk tsk."

Entering the Marquis' Mansion is really the most profitable thing she has ever done. What about glory and wealth, isn't this here?

She grabbed a handful and stuffed them into her pocket until she couldn't fit any more, then she sneaked away again.

But the people in the front hall didn't know anything about it, and Hou Rui kept showing courtesy to those noble ladies and daughters.

Those noble ladies and daughters were able to chat with her at the beginning, but once they knew that she was an aunt, they kept their distance from her.

Turning around to find Song Baoling, Liu Hourui sat on the side alone, sullen in her heart.

Looking at the radiant Song Baoling, she pursed her lips tightly, she was so jealous, she always wanted to win her no matter what.

But Song Baoling's existence reminded her all the time that she was not as good as her, that she was just an aunt who couldn't get on the stage.

And the maid Lian Jiao beside her, everything related to Song Baoling will not be a good thing.

Suddenly she noticed the clothes on Lianjiao's body. Wasn't that material said that only young ladies and masters could wear it? Even Lianjiao had something that she didn't have.

He concluded in his heart that Song Baoling gave Ye Lianjiao her share, and would rather give it to a maid than to her. Doesn't it mean to exclude her?

The next moment Song Lianxin walked to Lianjiao's side, Hou Rui's heart tightened, seeing Song Lianxin pointing to her clothes and saying something, Lianjiao smiled a little embarrassedly.

Lianjiao shyly turned her head to the side but just met Hou Rui's gloomy eyes, her mood fell, and she found an excuse to leave in a hurry.

In Hou Rui's view, this scene was provoking her, and a cold light flashed across her eyes.

"Are you that aunt?" A female voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

She turned her head and saw a strange woman. Seeing her plain clothes, Hou Rui thought she was a person of no status, and immediately wanted to take her anger out on her.

"Who are you to talk to me like that?!"

Li Shi didn't expect the other party to be like this, a pair of shrewd eyes scanned her up and down and snorted coldly, "Who am I? I'm Song Lianxin's mother. Why, can't I talk to you like this?"

But Hou Rui didn't believe it at all, she had never seen Li Shi in the Hou Mansion, not to mention if it was really Song Lianxin's mother, how could she dress so plainly.

"Do you know what you're talking about? Even if you want to touch porcelain, you have to pretend. Do you think I can't see it?"

At this moment, Song Lianming saw Li Shi hurried over, "Mother, why are you dressed like this today, didn't I send you a box of good clothes?"

Li Shi clicked his tongue, "Why, I still need to ask for your permission for what I want to wear?"

Song Lianming rubbed his head in embarrassment, "But today is grandma's birthday..."

Li Shi turned her head, she was dressed like this on purpose, otherwise how to arrange the Hou Mansion would be harsh on her.

Hou Rui, who was next to her, was stunned. Only then did she realize that she had just bumped into Song Lianxin's mother, and she panicked.

Song Lianming introduced her when he saw her, "Mother, this is Lian Xinna's aunt, and now she is pregnant with Lian Xin's child."

Li Shi looked at her with mocking eyes, "I remember Lian Xin's eyes are not like this."
