Chapter 243: Joy

Eleven Niang stood at the door of the clean room and talked to Xu Lingyi: She said she felt unwell when she went to Cheng Guogong's mansion yesterday. Only then did I know. I hurriedly asked Hu Bo to ask Dr. Wu who had helped Aunt Qiao take care of her illness.

Come and take a look.

If it really doesn't work, just send it to Luoyeshan Villa to recuperate. Xu Lingyi's expression was a little cold. There are several children living at home. What should I do if I get over the illness?

The imperial doctor's diagnosis has not yet come out, and the Marquis went to arrange the aunt's whereabouts. Eleven Niang said with a smile, we have to wait until the results come out.

While the two were talking, Amber came: Madam, Doctor Wu is here.

Eleven Niang responded, smiled and said to Xu Lingyi: Mr. Hou was not at home before. Now that he is back, it would be better for Mr. Hou to ask about the situation.

Xu Lingyi nodded, washed up and went to the hall.

Although she was separated by a few seconds, Eleven Niang still heard the somewhat exaggerated voice of Dr. Wu: "Master Marquis, congratulations, Madam Ru has a happy pulse."

Ah, Xu Lingyi's voice was filled with surprise and joy, and he whispered something to Dr. Wu.

Eleven Niang sat by the kang and began to think deeply.

Tao's mother and she thought about it together. There are still many months from pregnancy to delivery. Who knows what will happen. It has not been long since I entered the house and I have not yet established a firm footing. I can't drag my own people into it. I have to find a way to get rid of this.

Just throw the hot potato away.

Her mind was spinning rapidly. Then she saw the curtain lifted and Xu Lingyi walked in with a smile on her face.

Eleven Niang, Aunt Qiao is the Ximai.

Eleven Niang's thoughts were still a little unfocused, so she imitated Dr. Wu and said congratulations to the Marquis.

Xu Lingyi laughed and said: Let's go over and see her.

"Okay," Eleventh Mother agreed, and went out with Xu Lingyi. Just in time, we will go to the Madam's place later. She will also be happy.

Xu Lingyi hummed, his tone was brisk, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.

Qiao Lianfang was lying on the bed dejectedly. When she saw the two people entering, she immediately sat up: Mr. Marquis, Madam

A pair of beautiful eyes were shy and timid, only staring at Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi sat beside the bed and asked, "How do you feel?" His tone was very gentle.

Qiao Lianfang lowered his head, his face turned red, and he remained silent.

On the side, Xiu Citron interrupted with a smile: "My aunt just doesn't want to eat."

No, no, Qiao Lianfang denied it continuously, but looked at Eleven Niang timidly, as if she was worried that Eleven Niang would be angry. You know, not long after Eleven Niang got married, she gave away the small kitchen in the courtyard to her aunts.

Cut off.

Xu Lingyi had vaguely heard of this incident.

It was Yuan Niang's intention to set up that small kitchen. She didn't want to eat in the same pot with several aunts. Later, many things happened and the aunts moved in, but Yuan Niang moved into Dian Chun Hall, but this small kitchen

It was still given to the aunts. Later, when Eleventh Niang got married, everyone ate at the Taifu's place, and the kitchen in the courtyard was rarely used. Eleventh Niang combined the two kitchens into one, and only allowed the aunts to use the kitchen.

The kitchen inside was used for boiling water and so on. When Qiao Lianfang said this, he also looked towards Eleven Niang.

Anyway, the kitchen is idle, and Qiao Lian's room is in a special situation now, so it's time to take care of her.

Of course Eleven Niang knew the meaning of Qiao Lianfang's words, and she could also guess Xu Lingyi's thoughts.

When several children were born, or when the Marquis Mansion was in turmoil, or when the Xu family was helping the Seventh Prince aspire to the throne, how could he be in the mood to enjoy being a father. Now it is completely different. Xu Lingyi has now grown into an experienced politician.

There was trouble, but he didn't have the fear he had back then. He became famous, stayed at home, and had money and leisure. Being a father again was more about enjoyment than responsibility. If his mood was different, his feelings towards Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy would be different.

Although she understood, she couldn't agree.

Changing orders from morning to night is a taboo for those in power.

It's fine that my aunt is fine. Eleven Niang looked at the two of them calmly. My aunt is also pregnant. It is said that she only likes spicy and sour food, so she moved all the pickled things at home to my aunt.

Qiao Lianfang lowered her head after hearing this.

Her red lips were pursed tightly, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes, looking very aggrieved.

Although Xu Lingyi remained calm, he was very surprised in his heart.

Eleven Niang is a very smart woman. With her temperament, it is impossible not to know what she means but still politely refuse.

Is it because she is afraid that Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy and childbirth will threaten her status, or is it just because she is jealous?

In front of Qiao Lian's room, it was not the place to talk.

He stood up with a smile and said to Qiao Lianfang: Since you have nothing to do, just have a good rest. My wife and I will go to the Madam's place to make her happy.

Qiao Lianfang naturally understood the meaning of Shiyi Niang's words.

She couldn't help but be stunned.

I didn’t expect Eleven Niang to reject the Marquis, nor did I expect that the Marquis would just let it go without saying anything.

Qiao Lianfang couldn't help but look towards Xu Lingyi.

I saw his gentle expression, clear eyes, and no hint of displeasure.

Her hands, painted with pink khaodan, clenched tightly into fists.

With the corners of his eyes reddish, he struggled to get up to see Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang off.

Xu Lingyi stopped her: You are a twin now, so don't talk about those false etiquette.

Yesterday, her mother told her that a child is most likely to have a miscarriage in the first three months and told her to stay in bed. Qiao Lianfang was also worried about the child in her belly. Seeing what Xu Lingyi said, she stopped insisting and asked Xiucan to send the Xu couple out.

.

Eleven Niang didn't want to drag this matter into a problem between the two of them.

After leaving the yard of Qiao Lian's house, she said bluntly: Mr. Hou, I understand what you mean. The small kitchen only boils hot water and does not cook food. This is what I said. It has not been half a year and the words have not yet been spoken. Please let me

I made an exception for Aunt Qiao. The Marquis is a man who has commanded thousands of armies, so he naturally knows the disadvantages of changing orders every day. If you really feel sorry for Aunt Qiao, you might as well use your own money to subsidize her and reopen the kitchen for her.

I cannot agree to it no matter what.

Xu Lingyi was very surprised.

In his impression, most women would pull out a lot of messy and irrelevant things to cover up their own purposes. There are few people like Eleven Niang who speak out openly and frankly. And if he thinks about it carefully, she

That makes sense. It was indeed something I did inappropriately.

You're right. I don't think much about this matter. It's what you mean.

Xu Lingyi is not a stubborn person who cannot listen to objections.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Eleven Niang stopped talking. She smiled and said thank you to the Marquis for understanding my difficulties, and went to the Madam's place with Xu Lingyi.

The madam was really happy to know.

Ask Mama Du to get some supplements and reward them to Qiao Lianfang.

Eleven Niang thanked her and took the opportunity to discuss with Mrs. Tai: Mom, I am young and have little experience. I don’t know if I can properly take care of Aunt Qiao. As for those around Aunt Qiao, most of them are not married.

Little girl, I don’t understand these things even more. Please help me and send two experienced mothers to serve Aunt Qiao. This will save me from worrying.

The madam sighed inwardly.

After all, she was a concubine, so she couldn't compare with Yuan Niang's party. During Yuan Niang's party, the eldest wife made several smart people from the Luo family her companions.

Since Eleven Niang doesn’t have any help from her mother’s family, then she should help her by herself.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Tai did not hesitate for a moment and said immediately: I will ask Mama Du to pick two capable people from my yard to serve Aunt Qiao.

Eleven Niang secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

There is someone from the dowager in his yard, so if anything happens, there will be a witness to clarify the matter.

I'm afraid that building a house will have to stop for a while. Madam Tai told Xu Lingyi to wait until the first three months are over before choosing a date.

According to custom, no pregnancy is allowed during the first three months of pregnancy.

I think so too. Xu Lingyi said, but it doesn’t matter if we push it to June. In June, the days are longer, and it’s faster to build a house.

It’s not like we’re waiting to live. It’s the same whenever we start construction. Eleven Niang said with a smile, but she didn’t know if the stones could be withdrawn.

This was how the matter was settled.

Then everyone found out about Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy, and congratulated Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang, as if Eleven Niang was pregnant, and Eleven Niang was quite dumbfounded.

But when I thought about Xu Lingyi's future children, all of them would theoretically belong to him, I kind of understood the meaning of this.

The two came out of Mrs. Tai's house. Xu Lingyi asked the boy to send a message to Manager Bai: The house will be built on an auspicious day in June. The stones that arrived will be temporarily stored in Luoyeshan Villa.

Eleven Niang asked Hu Bo to prepare some gifts, and then called Tao's mother. She asked her to take the gifts to Duke Cheng's Mansion and tell Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao that Aunt Qiao had a happy pulse, so as to avoid their worries.

Looking up, she saw Xu Lingyi looking at her with confusion.

Oh, Mrs. Qiao specifically asked about this when she sent her mother to deliver things early this morning. Eleven Niang explained that now that she knew it was Ximai, she should write a reply to Mrs. Qiao out of both emotion and reason.

Xu Lingyi said curiously: Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Qiao asked someone to bring something.

Since Qiao Lianfang became a concubine, except Mrs. Qiao San, no one else in the Qiao family has had contact with her.
