Comprehensive wear purple

In Weirui Pavilion, Madam Wang was playing with little Rulan with her two elder daughters, and the mother and daughters were having a great time.

At this moment, Mother Liu was feeding the mother and daughter in the kitchen. Caihuan hesitated at the door for a moment, glanced at the two girls hesitantly, then quietly walked over and whispered in Wang Ruofu's ear:

"Madam, Xiaodie, who is beside Miss Wei, came over and said that Miss Wei has not been feeling well these past two days. She wants you to send someone to get a doctor to take a look."

Madam Wang thought it was a big deal, but it was just such a small matter. She waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "You don't need to report such a small matter to me. Just send someone to get a doctor."

Just as she was about to continue teasing her little daughter, she discovered that the maid, who was never very clever, was still standing there. She immediately said in an unhappy tone, "Why are you still standing here? Is there something else you haven't said?"

Chenlan and Hualan heard the noise coming from their mother's side and looked over with some confusion. Seeing that their mother didn't seem angry, they turned around and continued to tease their little sister.

Caihuan was shocked when she saw the two girls looking over here. She didn't dare to hesitate any longer and said, "Madam, Xiaodie just said that Miss Wei hasn't changed her clothes for more than two months."

Wang Ruofu: "If I didn't change it, then I didn't change it. Wait, are you saying that Wei Xiaoniang might be pregnant?"

"Then when you ask someone to call a doctor, try to ask a famous doctor in this field. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with our main courtyard. If that little bitch from Linqi Pavilion knew about it, she would be very anxious."

"My Chen'er and Hua'er are right. No matter how many children that little mother gives birth to, they are nothing more than illegitimate children. Not only will they not threaten my son's position in the future, but if they are well trained, they can also be considered as natural helpers to my son."

"If you find out that I'm pregnant, go to the storeroom and pick out some supplements and send them over."

Although Caihuan was surprised, since her master had already spoken, she had nothing to say and quickly retreated.

When she got outside, she was no longer as cautious as she was in front of her master. She acted very arrogantly and called a young maid over. After giving her instructions, she went quickly to the storeroom to prepare the things that would be needed in a while.

Xiangcao was the head maid who was in charge of Madam Wang's storeroom. When she saw Caihuan coming over, she hurried over to ask, "Sister Caihuan, does Madam Wang have any instructions?"

Caihuan told Xiangcao what Madam Wang had ordered. Xiangcao quickly opened the warehouse, picked up some inexpensive supplements that were just right for pregnant women and handed them to Caihuan. After thanking her, Caihuan took the supplements away with her maid.

Because the business of the Sheng family's main branch has been growing bigger and bigger in recent years, the masters in the mansion have been living better and better, so each master has many maids and old women around him.

Although Wei Shuyi had the fewest servants, he still had a maidservant, two maidservants, and a gatekeeper.

After the doctor finished taking Wei Xiaoniang's pulse, the servants in the yard stared at him, expecting him to tell them good news.

As expected, Wei Xiaoniang was diagnosed with pregnancy, and the whole yard was filled with joy.

Xiaodie happily wrapped a big red envelope for the doctor, and sent the doctor out with the maid, and then she was ready to congratulate her master.

Unexpectedly, just after sending the doctor out, Caihuan from the lady's courtyard came over with rewards.

Xiaodie hurriedly went to greet him: "Sister Caihuan, what brings you here? I was just about to go to the main courtyard to announce the good news, but I didn't expect you to come over."

Caihuan was very satisfied with Xiaodie's understanding. She proudly told Xiaodie the purpose of her visit, then left the gift and left.

When Wei Xiaoniang and the servants in the yard saw this, they were not angry but very happy.

The fact that the eldest lady was able to give the tonic so quickly showed that she didn't mind that Miss Wei was pregnant. For a moment, the whole courtyard was filled with joy, and the good news spread throughout the mansion.

Sheng Hong was dismissed from his job and was very happy to hear the news. However, he did not rush to see Wei Xiaoniang. Instead, he went to the eldest lady's courtyard first. After visiting his youngest daughter, he went to Wei Xiaoniang's courtyard.

In Linqi Pavilion, Zhou Xuenniang had just told Lin Qinshuang the news when the sound of breaking porcelain was heard in the room.

"Master, you must not do this. If the person from Wei Rui Xuan finds out, who knows what will happen to you. The mistress has always disliked you and is waiting to find something to hold against you. We must not panic at this time."

After listening to Zhou Xueniang's advice, Lin Qinshuang regained some of her rationality. She put down the vase in her hand stiffly, spread it on the chair, and said in a somewhat unconfident manner:

"That little bastard Wei Shuyi has only been in the mansion for two months, and now she's pregnant. How can I not be anxious?"

"Originally, my Feng'er and Mo'er were inferior to those little bastards from Wei Ruixuan. Although Hong Lang favors me, the ones he cares most about are the legitimate children."

"Soon after Chenlan and Hualan were born, I found a way to hire two maids from the palace to raise them. My Mo'er is almost one year old, and no matter how much I beg, he doesn't move at all. If a few more are born, what status will my two children have in the mansion!"

Seeing that Lin Qinshuang's voice was getting louder and louder, Zhou Xuenniang carefully looked around the door and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that there was no one there.

He turned around and quickly reminded, "Hey, my master, be careful with your words, there are ears on the other side of the wall."

Lin Qinshuang was startled, but she didn't say anything. However, the handkerchief in her hand was soon torn into pieces.

"No, the bastard in this mansion can only crawl out of my belly. Others have no right to compete with my child. Wang Ruofu, that stupid one, is fine, but the others..."

Fortunately, Zhou Xueniang was rational and quickly poured cold water on Lin Qinshuang: "The housekeeper power in this mansion is in the hands of the eldest lady. We don't have the opportunity to take action at all. If we are not fully prepared, I am afraid that you will be implicated."

Lin Qinshuang glared at Zhou Xuenniang fiercely, and then said reluctantly: "Then I will let that little bitch Wei go first, and I will deal with her after I have the power of housekeeper in my hands."

Zhou Xueniang heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then asked again: "Then should we also send a gift over there?"

Although Lin Qinshuang was very unhappy, in order to maintain her image of being gentle and kind in Sheng Hong's heart, she still asked Zhou Xuenniang to pick up some flashy things and send them to Wei Shuyi in a high-profile manner.

After Old Madam Sheng learned about what the masters in the mansion had done, she sighed and said to Madam Fang, "Now that I see that the eldest lady has made progress, I feel relieved. I don't know whether the baby in Madam Wei's belly is a boy or a girl, and whether I have the chance to adopt it."

Madam Fang comforted her, "With the old lady watching over the mansion, there will definitely be no chaos. You personally picked the eldest lady, so she is naturally more intimate with you. As for the brothers and sisters in the mansion, if you want to adopt one, just tell the master directly. The master is so filial that he will definitely not disobey you."

"Alas, it's not that simple. I brought the two girls into the house, but they were taken back less than three days later. I don't expect to have children with this lady anymore."

"As for the two children born to Lin Xiaoniang, I would rather not hold them than raise them. After all, their mother's behavior reminds me of that bitch every time I see her."

When Fang Mama saw the old lady, she recalled the sad things in the past and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Then we can adopt the baby born by Wei Xiaoniang. I have met Wei Xiaoniang and she is a well-educated and well-mannered girl. I think you will definitely like the baby she gives birth to."

When Mrs. Sheng heard this, she nodded in satisfaction, "Then you should send someone to help look after him. Don't let those little guys wrong my grandson."

Mother Fang nodded quickly and said that she would pick out some supplements herself and send them to Wei Xiaoniang in a while. She also chatted with Old Madam Sheng for a while, and only went to the warehouse when the old lady was tired.

In everyone's "expectation", Wei Xiaoniang's belly grew bigger day by day, and finally in the late spring of the following year, after a day and a night of hard work, she gave birth to the seventh girl in the mansion.

When the Seventh Girl was born, Sheng Hong was handling government affairs in the government office, so he was left with only his wife and concubine in the mansion.

Unlike Lin Qinshuang, who appeared anxious on the surface but cursed constantly in her heart, Wang Ruofu was much more relaxed.

After all, she now has three daughters and one son. We still don't know how talented the younger one is, but the three older ones are all very smart, and I don't know how many people are envious of them.

If Wei Xiaoniang gave birth to a daughter this time, she would have just a dowry in the future. If she gave birth to a son, it would be a helper for her son, so it would be a win-win situation either way.

Madam Wang was like opening Pandora's box. The more she thought about it, the brighter her eyes became. She even nodded with satisfaction to her maids who came with her dowry.

Lin Qinshuang didn't know it at this time. She was secretly cursing Wei Xiaoniang, hoping that this opponent would lose both lives. But the eldest lady was thinking whether she should give Sheng Hong a few more gifts, since the mansion was not short of money anyway.

It can be said that after several years of brainwashing by her three smart children, Mrs. Wang has gone further and further in another direction and has become the virtuous lady that people talk about today.

Even though the Crown Prince later favored the Crown Princess alone, causing dissatisfaction among the ministers, the blame was not put on the Crown Princess, because her mother was so virtuous, and how could the daughter who was personally raised by her be a jealous one?

Just as Sheng Hong received the news that he had a new daughter, the eunuch from Tokyo who was delivering the imperial edict arrived at the government office.

When the officials in Yangzhou learned that they had all been promoted, they all hugged each other and cried with joy.

Although most of them were only promoted one level, unlike Ouyang Yongshu and Sheng Hong who jumped several levels, but the saying that a higher-ranking official can crush a person is not just a saying. If they do not have strong enough connections and abilities, they don't know when they will be able to get promoted to the next level.

Nowadays, one can get promoted so easily because of the blessing of others. For a time, the entire Yangzhou officialdom was extremely harmonious.

When Sheng Hong returned home in the evening, he was already drunk and fell asleep. If it weren't for Dong Rong's help, who knows if he would have been plotted against by some ulterior motives.

After Wang Ruofu found out, she said out loud with disdain, not caring at all that her children were in front of her, "Double happiness is double happiness, you are so petty, you are not mature and steady like me at all."

Several children sat below, lowered their heads and rolled their eyes secretly, silently complaining: "I don't know who it was, but after learning that Daddy was promoted to an official in Beijing, he happily walked around the room for more than an hour."

Although he thought so in his heart, he still agreed with his mother in a flattering manner. He just laughed at Wang Ruofu's praise and put the idea of ​​laughing at Sheng Hong behind his mind.

The next day, Sheng Hong happened to have a day off, so the whole family gathered in the old lady's yard and celebrated happily.

At the dinner table, Sheng Hong first thanked the old lady for raising him, then held the lady's hand and praised her highly. Only then did he remember his newborn daughter.

"Mother, Wei gave birth to a little girl yesterday. I think this child is also a blessing. Why not hold her in your arms and let her be filial to you."

The old lady had this plan in mind already. Now that her adopted son had spoken up before she even mentioned it, there was no reason for her to refuse. She nodded happily immediately.

Wang Ruofu didn't think of stopping it. As long as the adopted child was not hers, she didn't care. Not letting her raise the child would make her worry less, so why not do it?

Chenlan and Hualan had even less objection. After all, they were the legitimate children. Even if there were illegitimate sons and daughters in the future, they would not be able to surpass them.

The only person who might protest in the mansion is Lin Xiaoniang, who is not here. But so what? Not to mention that she is just a favored concubine, even if she is the legitimate master of the mansion, she has no right to stop the elders from adopting children in the mansion.

After dinner, Sheng Hong suddenly remembered that his cousin was about to go to Yangzhou, so he quickly told the old lady about this.

"You said that your elder brother Wei will arrive in Yangzhou in the next few days?" Old Mrs. Sheng's face was full of surprise. The smile on her face seemed more real than when she learned that she was going to adopt the seventh girl.

After all, Miss Sheng Qi is now just a stranger who has a father and a mother and will be raised by herself in the future, but Sheng Wei is different.

Not to mention that things seem alike because they are far apart, Sheng Wei was once the child of my sister-in-law, who had the same suffering as me and shared the same suffering as me. He was my nephew from the next room who I watched grow up.

Although they are all descendants with no blood relationship to her, the affection between people comes from being around each other. In the old lady's heart, the Seventh Girl, whom she has never met, is naturally not as good as Sheng Wei.

Sheng Hong smiled and nodded: "This time, not only did Brother Wei come here, but several younger generations from the big house also came along."

"From now on, Shujie will follow you, mother. Changsong and Changwu will follow Changbai and study with me in the front yard. Our home will become more and more lively from now on."

"By the way, you should wait until Xiaoqi is one year old before bringing him here, so that he won't cry and disturb your rest."

The old lady was in a good mood at the moment, and Sheng Hong did this because he cared about her, so there was no reason for her to refuse.

But at the end of the family dinner, she suddenly remembered that she had not yet chosen a name for the seventh girl, so she quickly reminded Sheng Hong.

Sheng Hong had been busy with so many happy events in the past two days that he accidentally forgot about naming his child. When he heard the old lady's reminder, he subconsciously stroked his beard.

"Now that our Sheng family has a bright future, how about naming our seventh sister Minglan?"

Everyone was very satisfied when they heard this, so the seventh daughter of the Sheng family had her own name - Sheng Minglan - on the second day after she was born.

From then on, the five orchids of Sheng Hong's family were gathered together, and if the two of Sheng Wei's family were counted, it would form exactly seven orchids.
