Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

After making the deal with the Li family, Mo Chenxi went to see He Wenyan and first told him about his son's marriage.

He Wenyan was surprised that his son was being engaged so early, but he didn't say anything. He just said that it was settled.

Then Mo Chenxi said that his son was chosen to be the emperor's companion.

He Wenyan looked at his wife in surprise, "Is this the reason for the hasty engagement?"

Mo Chenxi said: "It's a little early, but not hasty. I think the Li family is a good choice, and they are a good match. My son doesn't need to marry someone above his station."

He Wenyan's heart was blocked. After a moment of silence, he said, "It seems that Aunt Mo is pregnant. If she gives birth to a son, I will decide on his future marriage."

Mo Chenxi said: "I am the legitimate mother, and the child born by my aunt is also my son. I will not ignore him."

The couple stared at each other for a long time.

"Let Shankun come over to see me."

"it is good."

Mo Chenxi is gone, and now the couple only see each other and talk a few words about their children.

She knew what He Wenyan was going to say to Shankun. Maybe he wanted Shankun to break off the engagement, or to plant a thorn in Shankun's heart.

It’s a pity that Shankun is not Shanluo. It’s too late for him to get his son back now.

He is really getting more selfish as he grows older. He could hide it before, but now he doesn't care at all when he gets sick.

After meeting his father, He Shankun came back and told his mother about it. His father told him to cherish this opportunity and be cautious in everything.

As for the other things his father said, he didn't tell his mother so as not to upset her.

My father said, "Your mother hastily arranged a marriage for you. It was a woman's opinion. But you should also be understanding of your mother. She wanted to marry someone from her mother's family so that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would be closer in the future. After all, it was your grandmother who hurt your mother's feelings."

He Shankun said, "My mother asked me before we got engaged, and I agreed. I will be responsible for my promise for the rest of my life. My mother didn't do this for herself, but for the good of others."

His father said he was still young and would understand when he grew up.

He didn't know what his father was referring to, but he thought to himself that no matter now or when he grows up, he must keep his promises.

From then on, he would go to the palace every day, feeling only nervousness and anxiety, not excitement.

When he met the emperor in the study, he felt that the emperor was friendly and very kind to their three new study companions.

When he kowtowed to the emperor, the emperor smiled and said, "I know you. You are the grandson of Lord Mo. Your grandfather worked diligently and was honest and sincere. I hope you will be like him in the future."

He Shankun stuttered a little when answering, and was a little excited amidst the nervousness. The emperor was praising his grandfather.

They went to the palace to study every day, but the emperor only came every three to five days. Lunch was in the palace, and sometimes the emperor ate with them, so He Shankun was not nervous.

The emperor was about the same age as him, but he was as calm as an adult, and occasionally his words revealed the liveliness of a teenager.

Mo Chenxi learned from He Wenyan that Mrs. Mo was pregnant, only eight months after her last miscarriage. She remembered that Grandma Yu had told Mrs. Mo that it would be best to wait about a year before getting pregnant again.

But eight months is also about a year.

Mo Chenxi asked Mother Wang to pick up little Mrs. Mo, saying that she couldn't stay in the farm to take care of the baby, and the weather was getting colder.

At noon, Madam Wang brought Little Mo to her place first. Little Mo blushed and whispered, "It's not decided yet. I want to tell Madam after it's decided."

Mo Chenxi said, "I'll have Aunt Yu come over to check your pulse later. If you're really pregnant, you can't be careless and you have to take care of your body yourself. When you return to the He family, send someone to find Aunt Wang if you need anything. The festival is coming soon, and everyone in the village will be back. There will be a lot of people there, so you have to be careful."

Little Mo said, "I can take good care of myself. There's nothing wrong with Aunt Luo and the others. As for the old lady, I know how to comfort her."

Mo Chenxi nodded, "Just make the arrangements. Once it's confirmed, I'll arrange two people and a midwife to take care of you."

Mrs. Yu came and took my pulse, saying it was still early, but it also showed that I was pregnant.

Mo Chenxi asked her to find a midwife.

Grandma Yu said, "Mrs. Mo, if you trust me, I will go to the He family."

Of course Mo Chenxi was willing. Although Yu Po was not as good as the professional midwife in delivering babies, she was better than the midwife in treating women's diseases.

Most importantly, if Old Madam He causes trouble, she can use Grandma Yu to spread the news.

"What I want is to live in the He family now. You know that the old lady of the He family is a patient. Little Mo is a concubine, so I feel embarrassed to ask Yu Po to serve her. If Yu Po is willing, I would love it. Even if it is during the month when the delivery is due, I still need to trouble Yu Po to find another helper."

Grandma Yu said, "I'll look for one. I can't say I know all the midwives in the capital, but I know most of them."

She knew that Mrs. Mo was no longer the same as before. She wanted to make more money and get closer to Mrs. Mo, as she might need help from her in the future.

Mo Chenxi returned to Beijing a long time ago to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival. She is different now than when she first came here. She has made many friends and has to prepare gifts herself.

Preparing festival gifts gave her a headache, so she asked Cao Yue'e to help. Every festival she would ask, "What gift do you think we should give?"

In fact, she doesn't understand.

Cao Yue'e thought her mother-in-law was testing her and was very excited. She had grown up with her grandmother, and as she grew older, she became more talkative. Her grandmother had to explain every detail of the rules and etiquette to her.

Since her mother-in-law is testing her, she has to show her real ability. Her mother-in-law asks her for help, which means she is going to hand over the family to her.

Her grandmother had given her an old maid as a dowry, not to serve her but to advise her. Cao Yue'e consulted the maid every night about everything, leaving her daughter in the care of Old Lady He.

Old Mrs. He wanted to buy a house in Beijing. After looking at many, she wanted to buy one close to her niece's residence. There is a saying that a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative.

The house is too small and will not be large enough for her son and daughter-in-law when they arrive. If she has a bigger house, her budget will not exceed what she can afford. She cannot ask her son to lend money to buy a house for her grandson, as that would cost money for his future marriage and daily life.

So, I got angry again.

When Mo Chenxi heard Mother Wang say that Old Madam He was suffering from a sore throat, she handed Huizhen to the care of the wet nurse and made some medicine for her at home.

She took a silver note and went to visit Old Mrs. He. She saw that she had big blisters on her mouth and the room was filled with the smell of medicine.

Old Mrs. He was half lying down. When she saw her niece-in-law come in, she quickly sat up and said, "Why are you here? I asked them to keep it a secret from you. It's not a serious illness, just the dry autumn weather. I just need to take two doses of medicine to be fine."

Mo Chenxi sat on the edge of the bed and said, "It's dry this time. I was busy with the festival gifts and forgot to ask you to make pig lung soup or pork bone soup every day to reduce internal heat."

Mrs. He said embarrassedly: "Look, you are so busy and I am causing you trouble. I originally wanted to buy a house early and move in to clean it up. You will always take care of me when I live here."

"It's a bit strange for Aunt to say this. Ever since Aunt came here, she has been taking care of me, especially my daughter Huizhen, who can be said to have been raised by Aunt."

Say more nice things. It is true that her aunt helps her a lot. Although her mother lives not far away, there is a bad rule in ancient times that her mother cannot live with her every day, but her aunt can.
