Farmers have children to raise

Chapter 416 Sister
In Baochun's era, pregnant women still had to go to work, and they didn't take maternity leave until half a month before giving birth.

But here, due to limited conditions, giving birth to a child is a big difficulty. Adults and children can easily die due to various reasons. After bumping and bumping, the child is gone, and I can't wait to stay in bed every day to feel relieved.

Baochun is a doctor, so he naturally knows more about this than others, and it's even worse not to exercise.

She was a restless person, after lying on the bed for two days, she couldn't lie down anymore, Rong Zheng refused to let her go to Guiji Hall, so she could only work in the vegetable garden of the shed.

The cucumber seedlings in the greenhouse are stretched out, and Baochun is using ropes to erect cucumber seedlings.

The area of ​​the greenhouse is not too large, but there are many varieties grown, such as beans, gourd melons, green vegetables, watermelons, melons, corn, etc., as well as strawberries.

The strawberries have just ripened these few days, Xiaojiu, Shen Wu and the others always have to go in and eat their fill before coming out after school from Mr. Xunyang.

When the old concubine entered the greenhouse, she couldn't help but her eyes lit up. It was like entering summer. There was green everywhere, and many vegetables and fruits that were not in season outside were already covered with fruits. You can see it not far away. The daughter-in-law was stepping on the tall stool to tie the rope, her heart almost didn't jump out, she clutched her chest, groaned, hurried forward, and held the stool.

"My little ancestor, climbing so high is to scare my mother to death. The stool is not stable. What if I fall down?"

"Mother?" Baochun saw the old concubine who was holding on to the stool and quickly jumped off.

Seeing this, the old concubine hurriedly dropped the stool and went to help her, "Slow down, we already have children, so we can't jump up and down."

Baochun smiled, "It's okay, I'm a martial arts practitioner, I'm not that fragile, and I'm in good health."

The old concubine glanced at her worriedly, "What's the matter, I've moved my fetus and fainted, don't think I don't know."

Baochun coughed dryly, "It's not as serious as you imagined, it's just that I haven't rested for too long, and I'm tired. After a few days of rest, it's not all healed." Stretched his arms and legs.

"You said that the royal family is really messed up. It caused a mess and you need to help clean it up. Fortunately, it's okay. It's okay if something goes wrong. That kid Rong Zheng is also, and he doesn't care. know to take care of you."

The old concubine was in a state of fear, she blamed the person who caused the trouble, and blamed her dull son.

Baochun couldn't interrupt, so he could only change the subject, "Mom, the strawberries over there are quite ripe, I'll pick some for you, it's so sweet."

The old concubine hurriedly said, "I'll do it myself, you just stand." Taking the bamboo basket in Baochun's hand, she picked it up and said, "Don't worry about it. Your father is here, anyway, he has nothing to do, he is idle, no matter how bad it is, there is Rong Zheng, just do what you want."

Baochun's mouth twitched, mother's words were too ambiguous, it was okay to order Rong Zheng, but she didn't dare to do it for the old prince.

After going out, Lan Xiang cleverly took the basket from Wang Hao's hand, "The sun is good today, you sit outside first, I will bring it after I wash it."

Rong Zheng and the old concubine were sitting drinking tea, talking about something, Xiaojiu was lying on his grandfather's lap, when he saw his mother approaching, he rushed up, hugged his mother's leg, and looked at his mother's belly.

Seeing Baochun, the old prince was very satisfied, and said in his heart that his son's daughter-in-law is really good, and she was born like a Wangfuwang family. How long have you been married?He was going to add someone to his old Rong family again. He didn't even dare to think about this scene in the past. In the past, he wanted to be anxious with anyone who asked him about his children and grandchildren, but now, he can't wait to see someone All to show off.

When Rong Zheng saw his father staring at his daughter-in-law smiling like that, he couldn't help but glared at him. He didn't need to guess, he knew what he was thinking. His mind was probably full of grandchildren's desires, yes, it was the desire to give birth to a second child. , can no longer be regenerated.

Lan Xiang came over with a large plate of freshly washed strawberries, and Bao Chun dragged Xiong Zi to the stool and sat down.

"Girl, you sit too." The old concubine knew that her daughter-in-law treated Lan Xiang just like her sister, and she didn't treat her as an outsider. She pulled someone to sit next to her, and asked who was cooking, how to match the diet and so on.

Asked this question, Lan Xiang subconsciously looked at the uncle, but his uncle picked up a strawberry and stuffed it into the young lady's mouth, and then picked up another one and stuffed it into Xiaojiu's mouth, but he didn't look at her, and said, "It's me... ..."

Seeing her like this, the old princess couldn't help but sighed, thinking that she might be hopeless, so she patted her hand, "I don't understand, it's okay, I'll teach you, really No, I will personally..."

Before the old concubine could finish her words, Xiaojiu over there dismantled his father, "You teach Aunt Lan, you might as well teach my father directly, he cooks all the meals for these few days."

The old prince and his wife both looked at their son.

Rong Zheng gave his son a slap in frustration, "You still can't stop your mouth after eating?"

Xiaojiu bit a strawberry and said vaguely, "I'm talking nonsense."

"I think you deserve a beating." Rong Zheng said angrily.

Everyone present couldn't help laughing.

The old prince squeezed at his son, who gave him a supercilious look.

The old concubine smiled and said, "There's nothing to cover up, who doesn't have a special preference." Seeing that his son couldn't hold back his face, he was busy trying to smooth things over, but the more rounded the game, the weirder it was, Rong Zheng would throw up his sleeves and leave. It's too sad, the whole family is bullying him.

After Liu Jing came out of the sky prison, he entered the palace, first went to greet his father and emperor, and then went to his mother and concubine.

The concubine mother saw that his eyes were full of worry and concern. At this moment, Liu Jing suddenly understood that the concubine mother knew everything, even though he had never told her.

The mother and son were relatively silent for a while, and after a while, she asked, "Have you greeted your father?"

Liu Jingjing nodded, followed his mother, and sat down opposite her.

After the maid served tea, Liu Jing asked, "What kind of person is Anping's mother?"

Concubine De put down her glass, and sighed, "I haven't seen it before, I only know that the emperor who has been out of the palace for a long time has never stepped into the harem after returning. I heard rumors that the emperor is going to abolish the queen..."

Liu Jing looked at her, "Is it because of Anping's mother?"

Concubine De said, "It's not all. I think Anping's mother just accelerated the occurrence of this incident. Your father doesn't like the queen very much. The marriage was forced by the Queen Mother Deng to agree, because at that time, he was young. Powerless to resist, the harem is actually an extension of the court, the empress dominates the harem, no one can mess with it, and even the emperor wants to control every word and deed in his hands."

"Then mother..." Liu Jing said.

Concubine De said, "Your father allowed me to enter the palace just to check and balance the queen and the Deng family behind her. He has been subtly elevating the Gu family to suppress the Deng family. The arrogance of the Deng family has been suppressed slowly. You Father thought that it was enough to not be restrained by them, but things are not that simple. Before your father's abolition edict was issued, it was opposed by most officials. Under the pressure of most officials and the queen mother, the queen Not long after, news of Shen Muyun's marriage came. On the day of his marriage, your father turned white all night..."

Liu Jing said, "At that time, she was already pregnant with Anping?"

Concubine De nodded, "I think so, maybe Shen Muyun and her are not real husband and wife... She passed away not long after, and few people have seen her, and they don't know where she came from, but it is said that she is unruly, The insight is extraordinary, the world is astonishing..." Sighed, "This is the only way to make your father miss you for the rest of your life."

Liu Jing looked at his mother, hesitated for a while and asked, "Then mother..."

Concubine De held a cup of tea and said, "I entered the palace, ever since the hijab was lifted and I saw your father, I fell in love with this man silently, Tsinghua is burning, gentle as jade, let alone my husband... At that time, your father seldom came to the harem. Apart from the queen and me, there were no other concubines in the harem. At that time, I just thought that the emperor was not greedy for women and was busy with government affairs. But later I realized that it was not that he was not greedy, but I'm not the one he's lusting after."

Every time she sees her mother and concubine, she always looks calm and indifferent to the world. Liu Jing thought that her mother and concubine didn't love her father and entered the palace only when she had to, but she didn't want to be like this, " The mother must have been suffering for so many years, but the son is not considerate at all."

Concubine De smiled gently, "Mother is not bitter at all. In comparison, mother is very happy. At least compared to the queen, loving someone is not the only way to get his equal response."

Liu Jing couldn't help looking at his mother and concubine, not only this one but also other things?
Concubine De said, "Marriage is decided by the elders. After meeting your father and queen, I fell in love with him, but this is a unilateral matter on my part. Your father has no responsibility to fall in love with me, whether you like it or not. Love, this is the touch of the heart, which cannot be controlled by others, why should I blame your father?"

"It's like you like Anping. This is not a sinful thing. It means that your heart is attracted by a certain quality of her. This is a collision of hearts and a beautiful thing. You don't need to blame yourself. She is your sister. You There is the same blood in the body, which is something that no one can stop and cannot give up. Family affection is sometimes stronger than love. Love will disappear with time, but family affection will not, as long as the blood in the body is still there Drain..."

His mother's words shocked him and made him ponder, yes, she is his sister, and she will be his sister until death.

Concubine De also said, "It can be seen that she has a close relationship with you, and she will sincerely help you in the future. When you were young, you often envied other people's brothers and sisters who love each other. Now that you have such a younger sister, you can do whatever you want. Love her, protect her, she will not let you down, make you sad, mother concubine knows that she is different from others."

Liu Jing nodded involuntarily.
