boudoir

Chapter 207
He Pusong rushed back at sunset, rushed into the inner courtyard with his official uniform still on.He Xiuyuan who was accompanying him held him tightly: "Third brother, you can't go in!" He Pusong threw him to the ground and rushed through the door like an arrow.But the maids inside all pushed him out again.

Liuli and the others couldn't help but walk to the entrance of the hall, and looked across the yard.Qi's voice became weaker and weaker, while the voices of the maids and women became louder!The people who came in and out became more and more chaotic, and many voices calling for Qi suddenly surged up like a tide, and it was accompanied by a lot of crying!Immediately afterwards, Qi Shi suddenly screamed, followed by the cry of a baby!
"Born! Born!"

Liang rushed out with bloody hands, but He Pusong couldn't bear it any longer, pushed through the crowd and rushed in.

Liuli breathed a sigh of relief, Huanhua sat up, his eyes were shining, but his hands were tightly clutching the front of his clothes. "Yes, is it male or female?"

Aunt Liu, Aunt Ning and others rushed over.Xie's and Ruan's also passed by.Liu Li looked at the movement on the other side and said, "Listen, it looks like a boy." She suddenly remembered the worry she had said on the way to Prince Yu's Mansion, and turned her head quickly, looking at her.Her face sank, as if she had lost all her spirits and souls at this moment.

"What's wrong with you?" Liuli felt that there was something wrong with her. It stands to reason that even if the Qi family gave birth to a boy, she should be able to accept it calmly after so long. Can't touch the edge.She suddenly remembered that just now Shui Ling said that she wanted to tell her alone - no one in the house knew that she was close to Huanhua, could it be said that the person who asked Shui Ling to steal the small book was actually Huanhua!

Thinking of this, she suddenly shivered.Huanhua is doing this for Aunt Liu? !

"You know, don't you?" Huanhua looked at her, laughed miserably, and stood up, "I still failed, and she still gave birth to the child."

Liuli was stunned on the ground, speechless for half a day.

"Am I stupid?" Huanhua burst into tears, "It didn't work out, and now it's in her hands. My life is over, and she will never let me go again. And My mother!" She raised her voice suddenly, and raised her face to look in the direction of Aunt Liu, who was already busy in the delivery room, "She doesn't know anything, now that she's like this, the Qi family must hate her to death."

"Raccoon!"

Liuli supported her, really didn't know what to say.If this matter were replaced by herself, of course she would not do this.But things have come to this, what can be done?

She never approves of implicating adults' grievances on children. Children don't know anything, he is innocent, he can't choose his parents, and it is adults who are guilty.Liuli also hated Qi's family, but at this point, she didn't want to argue with her anymore.But she really had no idea about the unborn child.

From Huanhua's point of view, it was to solve the worries of the biological mother after marriage, so he attacked her, thinking that the child would be hidden from the sky, and the biological mother would be safe.It looks right, but it's wrong to be stained with innocent blood.Regardless of whether the child will be born or not, if she is so close to Qi's head, even if she gets married in the future, Qi's will not let her go.

"It's too late to talk about it now, why didn't you discuss it with me first?" Liuli said seriously.From the bottom of her heart, she really didn't want to see anything happen to her, but right now, she had no better way to help her.

"Discussing with you will inevitably drag you into trouble." Huanhua smiled wryly, "I just knew that you gave the little book to my second aunt, so I asked Caiqin to bribe Shui Ling and let her steal it for me. If you still In your hands, I will not take it."

Liuli was even more speechless.After a while, she remembered, "Where's that thing? Where did you put that notebook?"

She raised her head and said blankly: "Put it in Qi's hand. When I took it in the morning, she was lying on the bed. I showed it to her. She was very angry and said that her stomach hurts. I waited a while It's her son who was called a doctor—should be on her bed!"

"You are so confused!"

Liuli stood up, and finally couldn't help scolding her: "When you leave, you should take that thing with you. How could you just put it there? The room is full of people now, and it might fall into someone's hands. Don't you have a heart?" She really didn't know what to say, if she was her own servant girl, she might have to kick her out because of this kind of thing!
Huanhua couldn't help turning pale again, and said: "That's okay, anyway, if this matter gets to the old man, it won't be able to get over it."

Liuli didn't know how to tell her the seriousness of this. It wasn't something the old man knew or didn't know. There was no evidence. Just relying on Wang Ermazi's nonsense, the old man could be cured or not, or he could be treated later. , but if someone directly showed this book in front of him, it would force him to be cured!Three days after the birth, it is not counted as coming out of the ghost gate. If the Qi family is outraged and dies, then Huanhua, as a filial daughter, is not like the old lady who dies. She only needs to keep filial piety for half a year. Three years of delay!With Aunt Ning by her side, who knows what could happen in three years? !
Seeing the weather, the old lady Ying also came back, and she was not in the mood to tell her this for a while, so she said: "You go back to your room and rest, and let people go into Qi's room to quietly see if things are still there—probably not, Anyway, go and have a look. I'll go to the old man to have a look."

Huanhua nodded, and agreed.

The news that the Qi family had given birth to a baby boy quickly spread throughout the mansion, and when Liuli returned to the main courtyard, the old man was happily drinking tea with the old men.The pregnant woman couldn't go to the former gentlemen, so she had to wait for the news in the main courtyard.

Liu Li looked at the old man's expression, but he didn't see anything displeased, presumably he hadn't decided what to do with the Qi family yet.A few thousand taels of silver is not a big deal for the family, it is indeed something that can be investigated or not.With Tian Sun Zhixi now, naturally there is nothing to talk about.

Once the second and fourth rooms of the long room were delayed by this incident, they couldn't go back to the house. Liuli asked people to go to the big kitchen to prepare meals, and let each room eat in the main courtyard.He Pusong came over overjoyed again, and took money to refill the big kitchen. After such a commotion, no one asked about the whereabouts of the little book.

Liang's and Nie's waited until the child had been washed before returning to the main courtyard. Seeing Liuli, they naturally recalled the previous incident.It's just that everyone is there, but it's hard to ask, just when Yuegui walked in to answer, Nie said: "Where is that girl Shui Ling now?"

Yuegui looked at Liuli, Liuli said: "It's locked in my room, I can't leave. Let's deal with this matter first."

Nie had no choice but to remain silent.

Just sat down, but He Tingfang and his wife walked in at the door.Seeing He Pusong was not happy, but said to the old lady: "Grandson heard that a few days ago a group of slaves were sold in Zhuangzi, and they were found out to be embezzled by Mo Gongyin. Dare to ask the old lady, but has this happened?"

Mentioning this, Liang's and Nie's expressions turned serious, and they couldn't sit still.Liuli didn't move, but the hand that was just about to drink tea also stopped in mid-air.

The old man frowned slightly, stroked his beard and said, "It is true, how is it?"

He Tingfang said: "My grandson also heard that Wang Ermazi, who was sold off, wrote a letter a few days ago, suing someone in our house for having their stolen money, and now the letter has been placed on the old lady's desk. Dare I ask the old lady when? Deal with this person?"

The old man's face darkened: "How can you come and ask about this matter? Go down!"

The four masters including He Tingli were all there at this time, except for He Pusong who was confused, the other three all showed a bit of embarrassment, presumably they had heard the news from their own channels, so no one came to reprimand He Tingfang at this time.He Tingfang pursed his lips tightly, and said angrily: "The grandson is the son of the eldest son, and also the grandson of the old man. This father-in-law's silver will also be a part of our elder's family in the future! Now that someone else has stolen it, why should I Can't ask?"

This statement is correct, and the old man couldn't refute him, so he had no choice but to say: "There is no real evidence, how to punish? You can believe what the servant said!"

At this time, everyone's ears were pricked up, and many people didn't know why He Tingfang chose this moment to talk about things.

"They dog ​​eat dog, isn't that considered evidence?" He Tingfang said angrily.But in front of so many elders, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

The old man became impatient, frowned and said, "We will discuss this matter later."

"It's unfair for the old lady to say this." Seeing that He Tingfang was being blocked, Mrs. Ruan stood up slowly and said, "The property in the public house does not belong to any one person, and greed for money is a big issue in the house. Back then, I Didn't the mother-in-law also receive a heavy punishment for this? If the eldest house is punished for being greedy for money, others can delay it. Isn't it unfair to our elder family? Anyway, our elder will also be the eldest son of Chengzong in the future, no It's basically fair to ask the old man to be more partial, so you have to obey."

Hearing these words, Liuli knew that what she had foreseen was coming.The most restless couple in the long room was He Tingfang and his wife. If He Tingfang didn't think much of it before they got married, since he married the Ruan family, it's just a nostril.Today's matter is mostly instigated by Ruan Shi.

Sure enough, the old man was so angry that he blew his beard and said, "You come to seek justice with me! You elders are so courageous, why are you seeking justice with me?!"

He Yuli quickly stood up and reprimanded He Tingfang and his wife: "Come out and talk nonsense without evidence? You have no place to speak here, so don't go down!"

Ruan gave him a blessing, but didn't go down, but said: "If you talk about evidence, I have one here. Since we don't have the part to talk, it's better to ask the old man to have a look, and then make a decision. The daughter-in-law is not for me. We are in our early years, after all, we are all long-term householders, and it’s not that we haven’t seen money since we were young. If we don’t want these thousands of taels of silver, just relying on the word of justice, we can’t let my mother-in-law suffer the grievance of being detained alone, right? ?”

As she spoke, she took out a small blue leather book from her sleeve and handed it to He Cunli.

Seeing the book, Mrs. Liang gasped immediately!
