Chapter 1416 Second Wife Massive Bloodletting (1)
All the things for the Chinese New Year have been arranged, and the next thing is to wait for the New Year's Eve dinner.Liu Qiqiao spent the old year in the palace, and the New Year's rules in the palace were very strict. From the beginning of Laba, the housekeepers and daughter-in-laws in the palace began to run up and down, very busy.At that time, the concubine didn't care about her business, and she had to reply four or five times a day.

This year, because of Mrs. Zhao, both Liu Qiqiao and Mrs. Du are out of work.It is true that pregnant women are treated preferentially no matter which dynasty they are in.

After sweeping the dust on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, Liu Qiqiao never went out again, and stayed by Mrs. Du's side all the time. Mrs. Du's due date is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. What a big mistake.But in the late stage of pregnancy, any special situation will happen, so this period of time is a time to pay more attention.

Mrs. Du has not been pregnant for 20 years. Although it is a second child, it feels no different from reincarnation. In the past few days, she has become nervous and can't sleep well at night.Usually, when the weather is fine, Mrs. Du also goes out for a walk, goes around to the Fushou Hall, and greets Mrs. Du or something.

That afternoon, Liu Qiqiao went back to her herb garden after lunch, and didn't take a rest.It was the end of winter, and she couldn't sleep at night after taking a nap, so she didn't rest.Just sat down, when I heard the little maid outside came in and said: "The old lady invited the grandma to play there, and today I sent the golden scorpion in, the old lady asked the grandma to pick some good-looking ones first, and leave them here. Use it as a reward."

Liu Qiqiao responded in the room, "Go back to the old lady, I'll be there in a while."

Being a servant of the Du family is actually very lucky. The Du family is not like those princes of the government, with a lot of rules and etiquette.In this mansion, everyone up and down is quite easy-going, so there are fewer fights.But the Yueyin of the servants of the Du family is no less than those of the Hou Men's mansion.Liu Qiqiao and Zhao's monthly silver is 16 taels.The monthly silver for the two wives is 20 taels, and the monthly silver for the old lady is 28 taels.These were all settled when the old matriarch was alive, and they haven't changed over the years.In fact, for Liu Qiqiao, these silvers are free money. Like her, she used her own company to give money, and these silvers were just for her pocket money. But in this ancient time, there was no Taobao, let alone Jingdong. Even if she has money, she can't spend it, but she just keeps it as private money.

The things presented by the village in the past few days have also been put away, not to mention the silver taels, and those live chickens and ducks alone have been yelling in the kitchen for a long time.But these were all Chi Shao told Liu Qiqiao when she went to pass on the meal. She is a good eloquent maid, although she is not as careful as Ban Xia, she is more clever than Ban Xia.

When Liu Qiqiao went to Fushou Hall, she realized that everyone else had already arrived, even Mrs. Du who usually seldom went out.When Mrs. Du saw Mrs. Du, she said, "I didn't send anyone to invite you, why did you come by yourself? I thought it would be inconvenient for you to have a big belly, so I stopped calling you."

Mrs. Du laughed and said: "Qiqiao said, do more exercise to be fertile. I saw that the weather is fine today, so I went out for a walk. Since the old lady didn't invite me, at worst I'll just get up and leave." Mrs. Du has always been a gentle person, and it is rare for her to make a few jokes.After hearing this, Mrs. Du just smiled and said: "Hey, look at what you said, since you're here, please sit down, don't be too polite, and have dinner with me today, and I'll be the host."
