Foster son and husband

Chapter 156
Bai Zhan and a few attendants kept silent, obeyed the words passed down by the grandma from Cuixi, and dared not go west, but they were loyal to Xu Junying first, and the grandma suddenly stopped going to the west of the city and turned the car around Turning to the south of the city without explaining the reason, it is inevitable to be confused and uneasy. In the blink of an eye, a follower behind the car rode away from the team and flashed into an alley, naturally reporting to Xu Junying.

Xu Junying has finished his official business, and when he was about to return home with Baoju and his entourage, he received a report from Bai Zhan, saying that the uncle and grandma of the Qin family were about to give birth, and the grandma was going to visit her natal home.Xu Junying ordered to go directly to the west of the city. After thinking about it, she went to invite two imperial physicians who were used to seeing cases of pregnant women to come to the Qin residence together.

After walking two long streets, I met the attendant, who briefly reported the process of Grandma's request for a diversion, without giving a reason, without a fixed goal, and Cuixi just said: "Change to the south of the city, hurry up!"

Xu Junying asked Grandma Ming what kind of people followed her, she lowered her eyes and was silent for a while, and asked Bao Ju to take the imperial physician to the Qin Mansion first, and then she and her followers took a shortcut, crossed the streets and alleys, and rushed to a cross street , just in time to see Mei Niang's carriage approaching.

Mei Niang heard Cuixi's report, although she was a little suspicious, she didn't expect Xu Junying to come here specially to wait, thinking that this street was the only way he had to go back to Xu's mansion from his office, two people When meeting in this place, no matter whether it is intentional or not, there is nothing to say.

When the carriage approached, Bai Zhan said to the carriage, "Back to the eldest grandma: I just happened to meet the Marquis here!"

Xu Junying got off the horse, went to Mei Niang's car, tapped the wall with the whip in her hand, and asked Bai Zhan:

"Where is your grandma going?"

Because Heng'er was curious and playful, and refused to sit on the seat honestly, Meiniang had no choice but to ask Cuixi to take down the cushion, spread it on the car floor, sit cross-legged with him, and let him crawl around on the cushion At this moment, Heng'er crawled behind the curtain of the car, and heard Xu Junying's voice, babbling and yelling, Cuixi had no choice but to open half of the car curtain, Heng'er saw Xu Junying's face clearly, and clapped her hands happily Kicking, Xu Junying looked into the car with a smile, reached out with his long arms, fished out Heng'er, hugged him in his arms, and said:
"Heng'er can come out and ride in the car, isn't it fun? Let's go, I'll take you to ride a horse!"

Hanging on Xu Junying's neck with one hand, Heng'er turned to look at those tall and strong horses, and said "ha" in a grand manner, as if answering Xu Junying's innocent and cute appearance, which caused a burst of laughter from the followers.

Mei Niang had no choice but to stop her: "Wait a minute, Lord Hou! Heng'er is still too young, let him sit in the car!"

Xu Junying smiled and sent Heng'er back to the car, Meiniang said: "Someone from my mother's family came to report that my sister-in-law is going to give birth. I am worried that the stable woman my mother hired is not good enough. I heard that there are several medicine halls in the south of the city. Great, I want to invite three or two people over there, at least take some precautions!"

"That's it, I'll go back with you!" Xu Junying said, "I'll ask Baoju to go to the imperial hospital immediately, invite the best imperial physicians, and send them to the Qin residence by express train—there's no need to go to the pharmacy. Don't waste time!"

In front is Qiancaotang, Mei Niang is not reconciled, she doesn't know what the best imperial doctor is, she always trusts Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi, if they are by her side, she will be much more at ease.

She said to Xu Junying: "Your Majesty is busy with official business, so let's do it first. Having a baby is a woman's business. I'll just go back and have a look. Please make way for me. I'm busy going to the pharmacy to make some medicines." , and then we can rush to the west of the city!"

How could Xu Junying listen to her: "I'm not busy right now, I'll accompany you to have a look. Since it's dispensing medicine, hurry up——Bai Zhan, go to the nearest medicine hall ahead!"

After finishing speaking, she signaled Cuixi to put down the curtain of the carriage, got on the horse and followed the carriage, Mei Niang was helpless, but she had nothing to say.

It was also a coincidence that when I walked near Qiancao Hall, I saw Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi turning out from the corner of the street. Xu Junying's face was expressionless and his eyes were cold: Meiniang was in a hurry to rush this way, but these two people appeared at the same time. What agreement does Mei Niang have?
As the two approached, Xu Junying immediately raised his hand and bowed to Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi. Zhang Jingyun returned the salute, looked at the carriage behind him, and asked with a smile, "Where are you going, Marquis Weiyuan?"

Xu Junying said: "Go ahead to the pharmacy hall, how many medicines does my wife want to make—the two just came out of the palace?"

Lingxuzi nodded with a smile: "It's enough for the palace to be taken care of by the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital, we have to come out to get some air."

Mei Niang heard the voices of Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi in the car, she couldn't help but opened the curtains and wanted to shout, Cuixi hurriedly reminded her: "Grandma, please tell the two young masters, on the street, when Seeing so many people, it's not good to lose the face of Lord Hou!"

Mei Niang looked at Cuixi, and put down the curtains: "Okay, you can do it!"

Cuixi lifted the corner of the car curtain, and softly confessed to Bai Zhan, and then Bai Zhan reported to Xu Junying. Although Xu Junying was reluctant, she couldn't refuse, so she had to explain the reason to Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi according to Mei Niang's wishes, and begged them to go When the Qin mansion visited, Zhang Jingyun agreed without hesitation, and let Xu Junying and Meiniang go first. He and Lingxuzi prepared several medicines before rushing over. Xu Junying wanted to leave his followers to guide them. Zhang Jingyun said: "No, I've been to the Qin residence, so I know how to get there!"

Hearing what he said, Xu Junying felt as if a ball of cotton was stuck in her heart, and suddenly felt that she couldn't breathe smoothly.

Zhang Jingyun went to Qin's residence, but he was ahead of him!

That was the time when Qin Boqing was critically ill, and she sent Meiniang out of the waiting mansion to visit her natal family. As a result, she drove away Bai Zhan, disguised herself as a man, and ran out of the city in the ice and snow to find Lingxuzi and Zhang Jingyun. Messed with King Qi, took over Cyclamen... From then on, her attitude towards him changed, she was alienated, neglected, and even wanted to leave, all of this was thanks to these two old friends!
Meiniang didn't care what Xu Junying was thinking, she was very happy when she heard that Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi agreed to go to the Qin residence together, her heart brightened immediately.

Bai Zhan hurriedly drove the car, and soon arrived at the Qin residence in the west of the city. Heng'er was already asleep, Xu Junying dismounted first and walked to the side of the car, Cuixi opened the curtain, Xu Junying took Heng'er from Mei Niang's arms, and handed over Xia Lian, who had already got off the car and waited beside her, turned around to help Meiniang. After getting off the car, Lian's sister-in-law hurried to Qin's mansion. After a while, several men and women in their 30s walked out of the door, and came up to talk to Xu with a smile on their faces. Junying and Mei Niang greeted each other and said, "My aunt and aunt are back!"

The woman helped Meiniang, and the man accompanied Xu Junying respectfully, and walked in politely together. Meiniang went through it in her mind, remembering that these people came with the Sixth Old Master to meet Xu Junying last time. The brothers and sisters-in-law of the Qin family who recognize their relatives.

Qin Boqing entered the examination room but did not come out, and Mrs. Qin must have been very flustered when Feng was about to give birth. It was reasonable to ask someone to inform the clan, and the clan sent someone to help.

Meiniang ignored Xu Junying, and went to the backyard to see Mrs. Feng.The upper room where Feng lived was divided into inner and outer rooms, the inner room was the bedroom, and on the soft couch in the outer room, Mrs. Qin, accompanied by two other nephews and daughters-in-law, shed tears while listening to Feng's groaning in pain. , folded her hands together, and kept chanting the Buddha's name. At the square table by the window, two imperial physicians were discussing and writing a prescription. Come up, hold Mei Niang's hand tightly, and say:

"My son, you are finally back! Your sister-in-law is in such pain that I can't help her as a mother..."

Mei Niang smiled and nodded at the two imperial physicians, and patted Mrs. Qin comfortingly: "Mother, don't worry, sister-in-law will be fine, daughter go in and have a look!"

Mrs. Qin grabbed her tightly: "Don't...you can't go in, just wait here!"

Meiniang was surprised: "But why?"

The sister-in-law next to her said with a smile, "Grandma doesn't know, a woman has a bad spirit in giving birth, and it will ruin my luck!"

cut!What a mess.

Meiniang was about to argue with Mrs. Qin when Cuixi and Ms. Wang came in. The two saluted Mrs. Qin first. Ms. Wang also pulled Meiniang and said, "Grandma shouldn't have come in...Brother Heng Wake up and cry outside!"

Mrs. Qin was both sad and happy: "Heng'er is back too? My good grandson..."

She wanted to go out to see her grandson, but she was also worried about the crying daughter-in-law inside and the unborn grandson in her womb.

Mei Niang persuaded: "Mother has been guarding my sister-in-law for so long, she is very tired, go down and rest first, my daughter is watching here—Mother forgot? My daughter has given birth to a child, she is not afraid of blood, don't worry!"

After speaking, she arranged for two sister-in-laws to help Mrs. Qin go out. She wanted Madam Wang to accompany her, but Mrs. Qin said to Madam Wang: "I am really tired, my back hurts... because I am afraid that there will be no one close to me. Stay close, the daughter-in-law's heart is cold, since Mei Niang is here, she will wait for a while, the imperial doctor and Wen Po said that it will not be so fast, I will go down for a rest first, and you just look at Mei Niang, outside with her sister-in-law It's okay to talk, just don't let her in!"

Madam Wang agreed, so Meiniang had no choice but to comfort Mrs. Qin and let her rest in peace.

Two quarters of an hour later, Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi finally came, and Xu Junying actually followed them into the backyard. Mei Niang was very helpless, and promised Mother Wang that she would not enter Feng's bedroom casually, and asked her to go to Feng's bedroom. Before the bed, he comforted her and told her that the girl had invited Mr. Zhang and Taoist Master Lingxuzi to teach her to be at ease and not to be afraid. After Mrs. Wang went in for a while, Feng's crying sounded obviously quieter.

Mei Niang didn't talk to Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi, she just greeted them and watched them busy. Lingxuzi was still the same as in the palace, and asked the mother-in-law to bring a small stove to cook the concoction in the corridor, while Zhang Jingyun Talked to the two imperial physicians who came earlier, asked Li'er to hold the silk rope, one end was tied to Feng's wrist, and the other end was held in her own hand, to diagnose Feng's pulse again. After seeing it twice, she was so impressed that she looked at Zhang Jingyun with a smile, and wanted to take a step closer, but Xu Junying stopped her, pulled her away, and said softly: "This kind of pulse diagnosis requires [-] points of concentration. , don’t get too close, if it disturbs him, it’s not allowed!”
