Chapter 325 – Meng Yin’er
Liu and Meng Yue successively hugged their eldest sister to look at her.
Liu smiled and said, “She’s really handsome, more like Jiang.”
Meng Yue also smiles with arched eyebrows, “Yes, just as handsome as Cun Cun.”
Meng Zhimo came over and carried the child over, looking at the child with eyes full of favor. He laughed and said, “Yin’er looks more like Shiji, and is more handsome than CunCun.”
Meng Yin’er, is the child’s name, the old master has long been taken.
Meng family has an unwritten rule, if it is a boy, the name must be taken by the family. If it’s a girl, the child’s father can take it.
The old man is overbearing, Meng Ruimo and Jiang’s child, even if it is a girl, he has to take.
He also said, “The girls in our Meng family are delicate, so give them a dainty name to keep them comfortable and well throughout their lives.”
The old man was still blaming himself for not protecting Meng Yue and Meng Hua. Especially that daughter-in-law Qu, who had only met her a few times, she was also a delicate girl from someone else’s family, yet she suffered so much in her own family and was carved up prematurely. If he had taught his eldest son well, or had not listened to the old woman and taken him directly to the battlefield, the big house would not have been so miserable.
Meng Zhimo knew that if Xie Xie had given birth to a girl, the old master would have spoiled her to the skies. Because of Duke Cheng’s irresponsibility, the women in this room of the big house, except for Shishi and the wife who had just entered the house, the other few didn’t have good results.
Meng Zhimo also secretly swore that no one would be able to bully his daughters ……
Jiang’s mother and daughter are safe, Liu and Meng Yue take their leave.
Meng Ruimo made a bow of thanks, “Mistress has worked hard, big sister has worked hard.”
The kitchen’s red eggs had already been boiled, Shui Zhu brought over a basket, and the girls’ master and servant each ate one and brought back some more.
A hint of dawn had already appeared in the sky, the morning breeze brushed her face, making Liu feel cool and cozy. She thought of Xiu Xiu, who was born so heavy and just as beautiful as Yin’er. In a flash, she will be so big, it s time to talk about her mother in law ……
Liu entered the upper room, saw Sister Liu welcoming her and asked, “It’s almost dawn, why isn’t Sister resting.”
Sister Liu face is not good, waved away the maid, quietly whispered a few words to her, “Listen to the Liang granny said ……”
Liang granny is a granny who does rough work in the outer study of the Duke of Cheng, when she was young, she was the female secret guard of the old Duke of China, and her man and son are working in the private army of the Duke of China’s residence.
She had been home to enjoy her life for nearly ten years. After Fu’s death, the old Duke recalled her and placed her with Duke Cheng. Liu married in and had her take orders from Liu in private, this was one of the greatest sincerity that even the old lord gave to Liu.
Liu’s face sank underneath, spitting, ”That person just didn’t have a long heart and couldn’t hold it in for two months. Not to mention whether he violated the agreement or not, let’s just say that Jiang gave birth to a child, but that was his own daughter-in-law, who walked in front of the ghost gate. His son was so anxious that he stood in the courtyard for a night, grandfather and second uncle sent several times to greet, even I, the stepmother, spent most of the night guarding. Not only did he not care, he still had the heart to do that with the maid.”
Sister Liu also scolded, “That dead girl Honglian, she’s only been in the outer study for three days and can’t wait to hook up with the masters.”
Liu laughed coldly, “She’s rushing to be early rather than late, afraid that another one will jump ahead of her. Hmph, adulterous couple, give face to face, really think that old mother is good at bullying.”
Saying that, her hands uncontrollably clenched.
Sister Liu was busy advising, “Madam, put away your temper, this is the State Duke’s Mansion, not the Ox Mansion. Think more about Sister Xiu, think about your wife’s future. Don’t fight, talk to the State Duke tomorrow ……”
Liu calmed down for a while, her fists unclenched, coldly grunted, “Catching an adulterous couple, tell him tomorrow, can he recognize it? Hmph, the person who steals fish, after one time, there will be a second time.” After thinking about it, added, “You talk to Meixiang privately, let someone match a key to the second door. Old Mother will also take advantage of the situation when she cleans up after people.”
Sister Liu wondered, “Madam doesn’t manage the house, it’s not good to ask for a key to the second door, right?”
“I’m not in charge, but I’m still the head of this house. My daughter-in-law, Ruimo, is a thorough person, she will agree. Alright, I’m tired, prepare water I want to bathe.”
Jiang Yishi was woken up by Cun Cun’s laughter and the cat’s purring in her ears.
Hua Hua’s voice was even more delicate, as if it was the delicate female child that had just been born.
It had been squatting by Jiang Yishi’s pillow to keep watch, and no one could drive it away.
Seeing Jiang Yishi finally waking up, it stuck out its tongue and licked her ears, meowing, “Mother, I want to drink grandma.”
It was so delicate that its tongue curled up.
Jiang Yishi ignored it, and turned her head sideways to see the old lady sitting in front of the bed, holding Yin’er, who was wrapped in a red quilt, with a kind smile on her face.
CunCun stood on tiptoe to look at his sister, giggling. Unsteady on her feet, her two little hands clutched the old lady’s clothes.
“Even sister, even, not big brother and third brother.”
Having a younger sister spurred him to say such a long string of words. But everyone’s attention was on Meng Yin’er and didn’t hear.
The Second and Third Mistresses and Second Grandmother Meng were sitting on the sidelines, all anxious to hold the baby. Several of the girls were sitting in the hall room with Meng Zhiling and Meng Zhao’an, who were not good enough to go into the bedroom and kept asking people to carry Yin’er out for them to see.
Seeing Jiang Yishi awake, the old lady handed the child to the second madam, took her hand and smiled, “Yin’er is the first female child in this generation of the Meng family, we love it, and so do Resignation Mo and Old Master.”
She was afraid that Jiang Yishi wanted to have a male child to be disappointed, and deliberately said so.
The second lady a few people hugged and hugged, and by the nurse often mother carried to the hall room to show those people, got a wave of praise, the child returned to Jiang Yishi hands.
The child is awake, with one eye open and one closed, quietly looking at Jiang Yishi.
The child’s eyes do look more like his own.
Jiang Yishi’s heart was soft, and she leaned over to kiss her little face.
Finally waiting for the child to be carried by the nursemaid to breastfeed, the old lady a few people left, flowers again called out, “Mother, people want to eat grandma.”
Jiang Yishi stretched out her finger and poked its little brain, still resignedly took a tea bowl and squeezed most of the bowl of milk for it to quietly hide in the corner and drink.
Today was a day off, the old master and the second, second, and third masters all came to the Floating Life Residence. They could not go to the backyard and sat in the upper room to drink tea.
The old master especially hoped that Jiang would give birth to a daughter, and really gave birth to a daughter. This girl in the big house, he must give her the best, to make up for his own shortcomings.
The old master listened to Meng Ruimo talk about how handsome the tone, how like Shiji, heart all flew to the backyard, but also have to wait until the day after tomorrow at three o’clock to see again.
After sitting for more than two quarters of an hour, the second master reminded the old master should go, have not seen the Duke of Cheng to see his granddaughter, not even sent a servant to greet.
The old master got up, did not go to Fu An Hall, but grunted and went to the front yard.
That asshole, except for Fu’s two children in the beginning, he never put Qu’s descendants in his eyes.
Everyone knew that the old master had gone to the front yard to beat someone up, and they all tacitly pretended not to see it.
