It is not easy to be the fourth master's wife

Chapter 76

After having a child, Zhou Ting has roots in this era. It turned out that she only thought about how to live a good life, how to occupy a place in the back house, and not let anyone take her place, holding the honor and Sitting decently and firmly in the seat of the main wife.

She never expected Yinzhen to be "dedicated" to her. According to his identity and temperament, it is impossible to be dedicated to her. He was the one who invited the side Fujin early on, and he was the one who was tired of Li Shi and drove into the dust. .Newcomers are always better than old ones, and there will be beautiful girls entering the palace every year, and there will always be a day when Zhou Ting will no longer be fresh.

Everything he did before was just to let Yinzhen have a feeling for him, even if he became the emperor in the future and she was no longer young, he could still be more tolerant of her because of this feeling.

But now Zhou Ting thinks more and further, and her feelings for Nala are more complicated.Zhou Ting looked at the pair of daughters who were sleeping soundly beside her, holding the baby's little hands, looking at their slender fingertips, her heart was softer than ever before, and at the same time stronger than ever before.

What she has to do now is to open a net instead of holding the string in her hands. The string will always break when the kite flies high, but it is not so easy to break free with a net.She caged Yinzhen little by little, and weaved the love tightly. When one day he loves others more, this net can still play a role.

"Master," Zhuzhu came in and called her softly: "The side Fujin from the south yard came up with the little clothes, and the mother is looking at the stitches." Pearl didn't bring the things in, and Wusu mother was inspecting carefully, afraid that there would be something caught inside. What, since Zhou Ting has a tacit understanding with her, she has become more guarded against the South Courtyard, and she has become more cautious with these close girls.

Zhou Ting pondered for a while, and finally said: "Take it and burn it, be careful, don't let people see it and spread it." As long as Li Shi came in, she wouldn't use it no matter what, and those TV dramas she had watched would not be used. It was churning in her mind, even though some plots were stupid, she couldn't help but be wary, not only food, but also any cleats, kites and incense could kill people.

"There's also Big Gege. She came in. Find a box and lock it up. Don't let anyone know." Zhou Ting would rather kill by mistake than let her go. You have to turn seventeen or eighteen corners, Zhou Ting knows that there will be nothing in the little clothes, and Li Shi is not stupid, and you can know that she will not do this blatantly by seeing her tricks.

But the rabbit is eager to bite, not to mention that Li Shi is not a little rabbit.When she thought that there were still two eyes staring at her children in this house, she wished to uproot them all.

Pearl bowed her head: "Understood."

Once Yinzhen left, Zhou Ting really settled down to confinement. The whole house was under her control, and the front yard had Su Peisheng's relationship.Not to mention the back house, the entire south courtyard was abandoned, and every move was under her supervision. The group in the east courtyard ran away, and the wolves naturally rested, and those small movements from time to time were much less.

These days are really the happiest that Zhou Ting has lived since time travel. What she has to do every day is to take good care of her body and take care of her children, and occasionally get up to relax, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

All the sisters-in-law who could come on the day of the full moon have arrived, and the advantage of all things being decided by Zhou Ting is that she made this full moon ceremony very lively.In Yinzhen's absence, there were fewer male guests, but more female family members. Zhou Ting put a lot of effort into decorating the courtyard, and she still had the roundness of a parturient woman. She was wearing a purple silk robe embossed with gold, flowers and butterflies. Wearing the Nanzhu tinzi given by Yinzhen, the skin is shining.confinement
Well, her body is recovering well, and she looks plump and radiant, even more radiant than before.

Everything in the banquet room was exquisite and thoughtful, and there were lights and festoons everywhere in the yard. Sanfujin, who was a bit pity for her, felt relieved: "This pair of sisters didn't come with a bunch of younger brothers."

Yi Wei has no children herself, and she has endured a mother's love for these years, and now she is pouring it all on the two newborns. It is also because she and Zhou Ting live close to each other, so it is convenient for them to come and go. She held the child in her hand and refused to let it go, and she handed it to the nurse because the child was about to urinate.

"That's right, she was born so well, so white and tender, I want to take one of her back." What she said was mostly sincere, even if it was her daughter, she stared straight at her and refused to let go.

"That's a good thing, I'm still worried about the dowry of my two daughters." Zhou Ting joked with her: "Who doesn't know that your dowry is so thick that it's just cheaper for me."

"You might as well give them to me as goddaughters, my dowry is not in vain." Yiwei made a gesture to hug her back, all the sisters-in-law in the room laughed, and after laughing, Yiwei released the news that she was going to disclose today Come out: "Our master should be on the meadow now. Khan Ama's order is so urgent. If it is two days late, there is no need to write to him. The Wang family in my house is pregnant."

These words startled all the sisters-in-law. Zhou Ting glanced at her and saw that although her eyes were bitter, the expression on her face was really relaxed.It's so hard to hope for a child, but it's not in her belly, so it's no wonder she's sore, but it's better than the pressure of being childless all the time, so she smiles again as soon as she turns her eyes.

If this happened to someone else, then I really have to think about it and congratulate. Most of the sons of the Aixinjueluo family prefer side rooms, and there are not one or two Fujin who have nothing to do, but this matter It is a real happy event that the child happened to Ba Fujin.

"It's really a happy event, but I sent a letter to your grandfather?" Zhou Ting patted her hand: "I should let him know earlier, Khan Ama must be happy too." Over the years, Bafujin has been fierce and jealous Who doesn't know about her reputation, but she didn't tell her face to face. This time, Mrs. Wang is pregnant, so she can take off her hat.

Bafujin was about to confess to Wang Shi now, and he looked at her belly like eyeballs, opened a small courtyard for her alone, and doubled the number of people serving her, and because her husband was away, Yinhu who was originally All the nurses came in to watch, and only revealed the news when the work was done.

"I'm afraid the letter has already arrived in the hands of our lord," Bafujin said with a smile on his face, and the red gold ruby ​​pendant on his head kept shaking, taking advantage of the crowds to spread the news, no matter whether it was above or outside, everyone knew about it. When she returns to office, no one can say that she is jealous anymore.

For Kangxi, if the eldest wife can't give birth, she can't give birth. As long as the women below can give birth, he will still pay you wages, and when the child is well fed, he will praise you for being virtuous.Otherwise, if you count them one by one, the childless Fujins will almost take up half of them. Five Fujins, seven Fujins and ten Fujins have nothing at their knees. Nine Fujins have only conceived a child after many years of marriage.

The remaining 23 or [-] Fujin can still be regarded as new daughters-in-law, and it is normal if they are not pregnant now. This time, Zhou Ting gave birth to two daughters at once. , even if she gave birth to a daughter, she would be considered as having a child.

"I'm counting the days. I'm afraid there will be weddings in Jiudi's house in the next few days. It just so happens that I'm confinement, and then we can go together." Jiufujin and Zhou Ting were conceived around the same time, Zhou Ting It's because the twins were born earlier, and her days are coming soon, no matter where she is, there are still more supportive wives. When they can't conceive, everyone feels sad together, and when they are pregnant, they look forward to her being able to give birth to a son.

The eighth elder brother has always been close to the ninth elder brother, but Yi Wei has a normal relationship with Dong E, but she must express that her husband is not here, and she slapped her hands: "Exactly, happy events should come together."

After greeting these sisters-in-law, it was the turn of Nala's natal family. Naturally, they would not let go of such a good opportunity to make friends, and they all came with the family's instructions. Jue Luo naturally wanted to thank Zhou Ting well, and gave up his seat to Xilin Jue Luo after a few mentions.

There was a smile in her eyes, and she seemed to be a different person from the sad look she saw before. Only then did Zhou Ting remember that she heard that Wanxian had recovered from her illness, so she didn't bother to ask.

"Sister-in-law's complexion has improved a lot recently, and she looks younger." Zhou Ting handed her the small lidded cup in her hand: "I haven't seen her for a long time, and I don't even recognize her."

"Thanks to my sister," Xilinjue Luo Shi pursed her lips and laughed, "As soon as Wanxian recovered from her illness, my heart fell to the ground." Zhou Ting asked knowingly about her recent situation: "But last time How is Zi Xun Mo, the doctor?"

"Originally, I tried praying to God and worshiping Buddha. I said that the Bodhisattva spirit in Tantuo Temple, I specially invited him home." Zhou Ting knew a lot about Wanxian, and Xilin Jueluo didn't hide it from her: "It turns out She was still ignorant, she didn't eat or drink for so many days, and that day she knocked on the table where I placed the Bodhisattva for some reason, and when she woke up, it became clear that this is not a Bodhisattva manifesting her spirit." Xilin Jueluo said Put your hands together and look comforting: "I'm about to donate a golden body to the Bodhisattva."

Probably not the Bodhisattva, but the corner of the table, Zhou Ting twitched the corner of her mouth: "It's better this time, and my sister-in-law has let go of her mind."

"I don't know if she was fascinated in the garden that spring. She has completely forgotten everything in the past half a year." Xilin Jueluo reminded her: "You have to pick two serious ones, Little Gege. The slave is blocking the evil, I have replaced all the girls in front of her head."

I couldn't laugh at what Zhou Ting said, but when I thought about it, it was time for newcomers around me, so I ordered Aunt Wusu to pick a few maids to train first, and Pearl Agate would also go out.

Now that she was confinement, Zhou Ting packed up and went to the palace to pay her respects to Concubine De. Concubine De came out with a reward on the day of the child's full moon ceremony, and the nun who came with her received Zhou Ting's generous reward, and she naturally said a lot of good things when she went back. , how well-behaved the two little princesses are, and how much their eyebrows look like Yinzhen, which made Concubine De a little more worried. When she saw Zhou Ting, she asked, "How is the child?"

"Okay, since I'm so young, I'll recognize people. I know I'm holding them, and the humming sounds are different." Zhou Ting put on the bottom of the flowerpot again, and the plump appearance made the empress dowager happy. , the first daughter-in-law of the royal family is that she can't grow thin. She has never seen twins asking in one voice: "Do you look alike? Can you tell the size now?"

"There are different sizes. The younger one is the elder sister, and the older one is the younger sister. Now it's just the name embroidered on the corner of the clothes." Children naturally grow fast when they are nourished. Nanny is now eating walnuts and sesame seeds like Zhou Ting, and the milk is constant every day.

She originally wanted to feed herself, but the two children couldn't take care of them. One would eat for half an hour, and the other would cry from hunger, so she had to switch.The two nuns are very careful, and they have a little girl to wait on them. Zhou Ting has stipulated for them what to eat, what to drink and when to take a bath every day.Fortunately, her identity was there, and she was given many rewards. The two nuns followed the form every day, and they dared not make a single mistake.

Concubine De was overjoyed when she heard this: "It will be great when I can bring you in." She counted the days: "When Yinzhen comes back, the two children will be half a year old, so bring them for me to see."

Zhou Ting smiled slightly: "Nurse Gu said that the two children look a lot like my grandfather when he was young."
