The general's wife is sick

Chapter 229 Birthday Buffet [Part 1]

Just as Yan Bao fell asleep, Princess Guangyang got the news from Ji Liu. Before putting down the chubby grandson in her hand, Princess Guangyang stood up awkwardly, "Liu'er, you said Bao'er is pregnant?"

Xiong Jinghai took the little guy from Princess Guangyang's hand and left a gap for them to talk.

Ji Liu was also surprised before, but his surprise was earlier than that of Princess Guangyang, and now he accepted the birth control medicine, "Well, it's just over a month old."

"What about justice?"

"Going out."

Although Xiong Zhengli thought of crooked ways to restore Yan Bao, but he still had a heart of repentance after all, wandering around the streets and alleys, looking for some strange and extremely valuable things to buy to please Yan Bao, and happened to be away from the mansion at this time.

"This brat, this... this..." Princess Guangyang was incoherent for a while. She was delighted to hear that Yan Bao was pregnant, but she knew more about the problems between Xiong Zhengli and Yan Bao than Ji Liu, so Yan Bao This child made her feel at a loss for a while.

"Mom, it's a good thing after all."

Xiong Jinghai held Zhan Ping on his shoulders, bouncing up and down, causing Zhan Ping to tightly pull his hair.Although Xiong Jinghai had a careless personality, he had helped Xiong Zhengli steal medicine before, and before he had talked much about Yan Bao's pregnancy, he had a guilty conscience and hurriedly interrupted Princess Guangyang's words.

"Mother also hopes that this is a good thing."

Ji Liu glanced at him, and said to Princess Guangyang, "Nowadays, there are many pregnant people in the mansion, and even a little dirty thing can't be seen. Mother, I send people to the kitchen every day to check whether there is anyone in the mansion. There are also hidden things that are harmful to the mother and fetus."

Princess Guangyang nodded, "That should be the case. The three of them are pregnant one after the other. If something unclean gets in, it won't hurt anyone."

Princess Guangyang and Ji Liu went into the west courtyard to visit Yan Bao, seeing two little maids guarding the door, she also looked highly at Nanny Lin in her heart, and the guard's servants should rest assured.

Nanny Lin stayed outside the house. She was old and her eyesight was not very good, but she still took an embroidery shed and carefully embroidered flowers. When she saw the two, Nanny Lin stood up and saluted.

"Where's Bao'er?"

"Go back to your mother, drank the tocolytic and fell asleep."

Princess Guangyang was taken aback again, did Yan Bao forgive Ah Li for his cooperation?

"Mom, the medicine I boiled also has soothing ingredients, so let him sleep well. If he sleeps a lot, the child can grow up fast."

Nanny Lin watched them leave the courtyard, and was relieved to see the two little maids guarding the courtyard obediently. From today onwards, she will stay by Yan Bao's side every step of the way.

Hong Yan drank a bowl of bird's nest stewed with red dates, and Liu Xu cleaned up the empty bowl, "Ma'am, Niang Niang and the eldest young lady have all gone to the west courtyard, maybe they fell asleep, and came out after a short time after going in."

"No commotion?" Hong Yan turned her head and asked.

Liu Xu put the empty bowl into the tray, sent the door to call a little maid to send it away, closed the door and replied, "No, it's quiet, there's no sound at all."

Hong Yan's face turned gloomy in an instant, "Aren't you stubborn in wearing men's clothes? How about your backbone? When you were angry with me at the beginning, you looked very powerful, why are you so cowardly now?"

"Madam, don't get angry, and be careful of the baby in your stomach."

Knowing that the child is important, Hong Yan calmed down her emotions and gently stroked her belly, "It's okay, he doesn't make trouble, I will help him."

Her original intention was not to give him a child. If she knew that he could accept it so easily, wouldn't she have found an opponent for herself? Since she hated it before, she might as well hate it more.

After Xiong Zhengli returned to the mansion, he heard Princess Guangyang say that Yan Bao was pregnant for the first time. His head seemed to have been hit with a sap, and he was at a loss for a moment. After he recovered, he turned around and ran away. His knowledge and etiquette are all left behind.

"Ari, slow down!"

Princess Guangyang thought that he was going to visit Yan Bao in the west courtyard so quickly, but she didn't expect him to go back to the study and take out the pill hidden behind the book to destroy the corpse.

After crushing the bottle thoroughly, Xiong Zhengli asked with a sigh of relief, "Xiaoxin, hurry up and ask if the red dye I asked you to take is harmful to your body."

Xiaoxin was stunned by his series of behaviors. Xiong Zhengli saw him standing there in a daze, and immediately shouted, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go!"

He thought...he thought that Yan Bao was not pregnant, not only that, but he also planned to give Yan Bao another medicine after a while, and now the red peony is behind Yan Bao's back, it is extremely beautiful and bright, but if he knew, he would definitely not Using Anshenxiang on him will not leave a picture on him.

Xiaoxin stumbled and went out, and Xiong Zhengli slumped down on the chair, unable to do so. While doing it, he only thought about getting in touch with Yan Bao, but he was really pregnant, and Xiong Zhengli felt uneasy.

After sitting for a while, Xiong Zhengli got up and went to the west courtyard. He is the father of the child. This is a fact. Why should he feel guilty?

What's more, Yan Bao didn't know the origin of this child. Wasn't it the purpose that he decided to do this at that time? This child was the bond between him and Yan Bao.

With this excuse, he can come to the West Courtyard openly without being driven away.

Yan Bao did not drive him away again, and Xiong Zhengli never went into the yard at all.

Nanny Lin stood outside the door and said in a firm tone, "Please go back."

Xiong Zhengli suppressed his anger, "How dare you stop me?"

"I don't dare, it's just that the young master is just pregnant, so I really shouldn't be tossed about by you any longer." Nanny Lin's expression was calm, and her tone was neither humble nor overbearing.

With a long sigh of relief, Xiong Zhengli closed his eyes. He knew that Nanny Lin didn't say anything on the surface, but he was definitely displeased with his treatment of Yan Bao in his heart. He was at fault for this, but he didn't know that Yan Bao was pregnant. With both eyes, Xiong Zhengli said, "Take good care of him."

Nanny Lin bowed short, then turned and went back to the yard.

The two little maids at the door didn't dare to make a sound. Nanny Lin dared to confront the second young master face to face. No wonder she was a nanny, and they could only be maids cleaning the door.

Even Xiong Zhengli was blocked by Nanny Lin, Hong Yan was walking in the corridor, Liu Xu supported her and said with disdain, "Now that I know the protector, why did I go earlier?"

"Let him stay in peace for two days first. After two days, it will be the birthday gifts of the three young masters. At that time, we will send a big gift."

When Zhao Yongnian's prime minister's mansion was still full of bugs and people, and King Rui was having a headache for his missing dead soldiers and soldiers, Xiong's mansion ushered in the birthdays of three young generals.

On that day, the emperor, empress and even the empress dowager all sent congratulatory gifts from the palace, and the limelight of these three little guys caught up with Ji Liu when he returned to Beijing.

Red lanterns were hung high, red silk and satin were spread out on the porch, and the festive atmosphere was brought by the beating of joy. Many tables were placed in the front hall of the General's Mansion, which were filled with flowers, cold food, and drinks.

This is the tabletop set up in a buffet style, with male and female guests separated, the front hall is mainly used to entertain male guests, and the courtyard in the back house is mainly used to entertain female guests.The people who could appear in the mansion that day were either rich or noble, this way of self-purchasing was novel enough and attractive enough.

"What kind of snack is this? It looks small and exquisite!"

Mrs. Zhang’s wife Zhou Mei, Mrs. Zuo Shilang’s wife Hou Xinrui, and Mrs. Shang Yusun’s wife Ye Ruyi are good friends in the boudoir. They are married and willing to stay together. They like to gossip behind their backs on weekdays. It's just a few of them.

"I heard it's called a cake." Hou Xinrui took a piece and put it in his mouth to taste, "It's soft and sweet, it's really good!"

"The first-class lady of the General's Mansion really lives up to her reputation." Ye Ruyi just finished eating a piece of cake, and washed her hands in the water covered with flower petals, leaving a scent of flowers on her hands.

Hearing that there was something in her words, Zhou Mei asked, "What do you mean?"

Hou Xinrui suddenly remembered something, and burst out laughing, "Of course Mrs. Yipin was jealous and went crazy, making a big fuss about Shengyuelou in public."

The three of them spoke sourly, "Being jealous is one of the seven out of seven things. This kind of twins can't stop him, and General Xiong has a good temper."

"Look, Mr. Ji is not invited either."

Ye Ruyi looked around, "Really, you and I have never seen the new lady in Mrs. Ji's house so far."

"There's something good to see, don't let the small family come together!"

"Besides, this Ji Liu, how stupid she is to cut ties with her natal family after marrying. If she is wronged, there is no place to complain."

"Some people are cold-natured, they climb dragons and phoenixes, how can they know the way of filial piety, Mr. Ji is not favored by the emperor, of course it's better to stay away?"

The yin and yang way of speaking is strange, talking about the content that only they themselves understand. The three of them eat and drink non-stop, but they don't keep virtue.

"Are the three ladies still satisfied?" At some point, Ji Liu stood behind the three of them with a smile, and was so frightened that the cake in Hou Xinrui's hand fell straight back onto the plate. How embarrassing.

"I've seen Mrs. Yipin."

Ji Liu is a first-class wife. Although they are the wives of officials appointed by the court, it is only natural for them to meet and salute.

"You're welcome." Ji Liu still looked at them with a smile, he was born well, and his smile did not give people a sense of sinister, "Just now the three said that I am jealous and want the general to divorce me?"

"Ma'am, you heard me wrong."

"We're just chatting."

Ji Liu's expression turned cold, and the rapid change of attitude made the three of them hold their breath, "I am with the army in the northwest to assist the general, and I will give birth to an heir for him, and the emperor personally named me Mrs. Yipin. The three are worried."

Eyes swept over the three of them, "Perhaps, you can also ask your husband to go to the palace to participate in the general's book, and let the emperor come forward to divorce my wife. Otherwise, the three three-foot-long tongues may not be able to influence the general's will."

Only then did the three of them remember that the marriage between Xiong Jinghai and Ji Liu was bestowed by the emperor, and they changed the location after a gloomy salute.

There was little movement on their side, and there was no disturbance, but the fact that Ji Liu did not invite Ji Chengyue was not only discussed among the female guests, but even Xiong Jinghai was publicly questioned in the front hall.

Xiong Jinghai didn't save face for them like Ji Liu did. Everyone knew he was a warrior, and he was extremely mighty. When he stood in the front hall, his whole body was domineering, "Master Zhang, you want to invite yourself, who is it?" Stop you!"

"You talk..." Mr. Zhang just opened his mouth, but was pulled back by the people beside him.

Others persuaded him in a low voice, "We are here to celebrate the birthdays of the three young generals, don't be confused! Look at Zhang Li, he no longer interferes with the affairs of the general's mansion, so why are you doing it? You come out with this head?"

Master Zhang turned his head and saw Zhang Li happily walking between the dining tables with a plate. He snorted coldly and stopped talking.

What is not in accordance with the etiquette is precisely because there is no Minister of Rites, Zhang Ting and Zhou Yimeng who are good friends with Xiong Jinghai speak well for him, and the rest of the people all say that this is a family affair, and if you are so busy, you might as well eat more!
