The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 281 Pregnancy

With the passage of time, the emperor's body began to recover, and he began to go to court to handle official duties again. Due to his performance during this period, Jia Ke had completely gained the trust of the emperor and was regarded as his confidant.

With the help of Jia Ke, the emperor was finally able to balance the power in the court. Now the civil servants and Jia Ke supported by the emperor are almost the same. Relying on his position as the foreman of the military aircraft department, he can dictate everything and barely suppress the civil servants.

After the balance of forces in the court was balanced, the emperor started to run to Diaoyutai, and only started to help Jia Ke when he was a little weak.so that the situation will not be out of balance.

In this way, a few months passed peacefully. During these few months, Jia Ke replaced the emperor and almost handled most of the government affairs.Now, the other military ministers have almost become Jia Ke's subordinates.

Therefore, Jia Ke's status is becoming more and more stable, and the status of Rongguo Mansion and Wuyanghou Mansion in Beijing is also increasing day by day. At the end of spring and early summer, there are 10,000+ taels of silver sent to Wuyanghou Mansion from various places. The Jia Mansion also made an exception this year and received 4 to [-] taels of silver, which has not happened in decades.

But now the Jia family is considered extremely wealthy in the capital, and now the Jia family has regained the top spot among the four major families. Even the Wang family, which owns Prince Teng, has begun to avoid the Jia family's edge.

This is only in the capital city, in Jinling, the home of the four major families. Now the Jia family is even more domineering, and even the children of the other four major families have begun to look at no one.Therefore, the reputation of the big family in the elves became more and more corrupt.

In addition to this incident, another good thing happened in the Jia Mansion, that is, Li Gongcai was pregnant. This incident was quite a sensation in the Rongguo Mansion. He is also the son and grandson of the Rongguo Mansion.

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed when she got the news, and now she is finally relieved that Jia Zhu finally has offspring, and even if there are any accidents in the future, there will be no offspring.

Mother Jia couldn't close her mouth when she heard the news. All kinds of rare medicinal materials were rewarded to Li Wan's house like flowing water. Mother Jia had been looking forward to holding a great-grandson for a long time. Now Mother Jia is very satisfied with the development of Rongguo Mansion. Now Rongguo Mansion is one of the best families in Beijing, and now has the fourth generation, which can be regarded as perfect.

When Qin Keqing went to see Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang, she often heard them talking about Second Grandma Li's pregnancy. On the surface, she didn't take it seriously, but she was very anxious in her heart.She has been married to Jia Ke for much longer than Li Wan, but Li Wan is pregnant now, but she has not moved, which puts her under a lot of pressure.Although Jia Ke never put pressure on her, she herself felt the pressure from all directions pressing down like a mountain.

Once Qin Keqing went to Aunt Zhou's place to say hello, Aunt Zhou took her hand and chatted for a while, and glanced at her belly from time to time. Although Aunt Zhou didn't say it clearly, the sensitive Qin Keqing already understood what she meant.It seems that Aunt Zhou is also a little anxious, and now she may be wondering whether Qin Keqing can't give birth.

Qin Keqing also felt strange eyes in Wuyang Hou's mansion, among which Qiaolian was the most unscrupulous, she relied on being Aunt Zhou and he relied on being Aunt Zhou's niece, although she was never rude to Qin Keqing, nor did she listen to him. There is no gossip.But every time she drifted over, her eyes were the same as now.At the beginning, it was very concealed, but later it became unscrupulous, and even showed an angry look on its face.

Moreover, Qin Keqing once heard from Lan Xiang, who was now by his side, that Jia Ke had drugged all three of their concubines, and as long as Qin Keqing did not give birth to the eldest son, none of the three of them would be able to conceive.Now that I think about it, Qiaolian should be a little anxious, and she dislikes that her stomach is always silent, so that the other three concubines cannot enjoy the happiness of their mother.

Qin Keqing returned to Wuyang Hou Mansion from Aunt Zhou again, this time she felt even more anxious.

This time she went to greet Aunt Zhou, Aunt Zhou was a little impatient, and asked her if there was anything wrong and uncomfortable.Otherwise, how could there be no movement in the stomach for such a long time, which made Qin Keqing embarrassed and helpless, whoever let her stomach not live up to expectations, could only let Aunt Zhou sigh there.

Ruizhu, who had been by Qin Keqing's side all the time, felt that something was wrong with her, so she quietly asked beside Qin Keqing, "Grandma, are you troubled by the pregnancy?" This matter is no longer a secret, Marquis Wuyang The people in the mansion began to feel anxious. Now they were worried that Qin Keqing would not be able to give birth to an heir, and finally gave up the huge mansion to the Rongguo mansion next to him.

"Yes, why do you think my stomach is so unbearable? Li Wan has been in the house for a shorter time than me, and she is now pregnant. As a sister-in-law, my stomach has not moved yet. Do you think it makes people anxious?" Qin Keqing He frowned slightly, and said with a delicate and angry face.

"Miss, the matter of having a child depends on God's will. We ordinary people have the final say. No matter how anxious you are, it's useless." Ruizhu can only enlighten her non-stop, but what's the use? ?

"Ruizhu, do you think it would be helpful for us to go to the temple to ask the Bodhisattva?" Qin Keqing asked Ruizhu uncertainly. Qin Keqing is already in a hurry to go to the doctor for some illnesses. As long as she thinks she can get pregnant, there are many ways to do it. try.If the nanny at home hadn't sent letters from other places telling her not to take medicine indiscriminately, she might have even used those folk remedies.

While the two of them were talking, they heard someone answer Qin Keqing outside the door, "If you have anything to ask the Bodhisattva, you might as well ask me. There are still things in this world that we can't do now?"

Qin Keqing was startled by the sudden voice outside the window, and then saw the door curtain being opened, and Jia Ke walked in from the outside.

"I didn't say a word when I came back, almost scared my soul out." Qin Keqing gave Jia Ke angrily a look.

As soon as Jia Ke entered the room, Ruizhu hurried forward to help him change his clothes. While enjoying Ruizhu's service, Jia Ke asked Qin Keqing, "Why are you going to the temple to conjure Bodhisattvas? Just tell me if you have anything to do. "

Qin Keqing's face turned red from his question, and she was too embarrassed to speak.

Seeing Qin Keqing's appearance, Ruizhu had no choice but to say for their young lady, "Master, our eldest grandma is worried because Second Grandma Li of the East Mansion is pregnant, but she hasn't moved yet, so she wants to go to the temple to pray to the Bodhisattva, so that she can help her." Grandpa gave birth to a fat boy."

When Qin Keqing heard Ruizhu say everything, she became even more shy.So he lay down on the bed, covered his head with a pillow, and refused to raise his head no matter what.

Jia Ke had finished changing and came to Qin Keqing's bedside, took the pillow off her head, hugged her, let her lean against her body, and gently persuaded her, "This son is all from heaven." The arrangement is fixed, can it be changed without permission by asking the Bodhisattva? As long as you do good deeds often, the jade tree will naturally bloom and bear fruit. If you go to the temple to ask the Bodhisattva, you might as well spend some money and go to Xicheng to give away porridge, maybe it will be of some use."

Qin Keqing leaned in Jia Ke's arms, and felt that what Jia Ke said was very reasonable. She hadn't given birth to a child yet, so it must be because of her own merits and virtues. After hearing Jia Ke's method, her eyes rolled around, and she felt that this method could be tried. Try, she is not short of those two money now.

So not long after, a special porridge stall appeared in Xicheng, as long as it was from poor families.You can go there every day to get a bowl of porridge to drink, but after drinking the porridge, you have to say a word about giving birth to a precious child early.And this stall is not only in one place, it will be moved to other places in the west city every few days.

During this period of existence of this stall, many poor people in their families have received benefits, and it can even be said that many people have been saved. For a time, thousands of families will become Buddhas, and they all hope that this noble person will give birth to a precious son.

It's no wonder that three or four months after Qin Keqing gave up the porridge, one day when he was having dinner with Jia Ke, he suddenly smelled too much fishy smell on the table, so he vomited continuously.

Jia Ke hurriedly invited the resident doctor in the mansion to diagnose Qin Keqing's pulse. After a look, the doctor congratulated Jia Ke and Qin Keqing repeatedly, saying that this time the diagnosis was undoubtedly a happy pulse.

Qin Keqing was overjoyed when she heard this, and felt that she must have gained some merit in giving up porridge in Xicheng during this period, so God was moved to give her a child. She secretly decided that for this child, not only can she not stop giving porridge, but she must continue Go down and just pray for the child.

After Qin Keqing became pregnant, Jia Ke ordered him to hand over all the affairs in the house to Lan Xiang, so that she could raise her baby with peace of mind.

That's not to mention, Jia Ke also went to the palace in person, and begged the emperor to send a few nuns with rich experience in the palace, let them be responsible for all the chores around Qin Keqing, Jia Ke did this to prevent someone from Make trouble.

By doing this, Jia Ke did not mean to ask the emperor to submit a certificate of honor. Now even in the inner house of Wuyang Hou Mansion, Qin Keqing has the emperor's people by his side, so why is the emperor worried?
Moreover, what Jia Ke is most afraid of now is Mrs. Wang. Although this person is not smart in small things, she has the vision of a lady when it comes to big things.Now that Jia Ke has no children, Mrs. Wang may not want Jia Ke to have no children forever.Isn't Jia Lian childless in Dream of the Red Chamber?But now Jia Ke is far different from Jia Lian, so Mrs. Wang's reasons are even more sufficient. As long as Jia Ke is childless, one of Mrs. Wang's two sons will inherit the Rongguo Mansion, and the other will also inherit the Rongguo Mansion. Why not be the master of the Wuyanghou Mansion.

After Jia Ke made all the arrangements, he sent someone to pass the news of Qin Keqing's pregnancy to Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhou.

This time Rongguo Mansion was even more lively. Compared with the last time, the whole mansion was a sensation. After all, Li Wan was pregnant and gave birth to a child, and this child was nothing special.

However, Jia Ke's eldest son was completely different. This child was born to be a prince, and as long as he didn't die young, he would definitely be the next Marquis of Wuyang, with a noble status.

And Aunt Zhou was even more overjoyed this time, and even begged Jia Zheng personally to go to Wuyanghou's mansion to take care of Qin Keqing.

Jia Zheng doesn't rest at Aunt Zhou's place very much now, so he agrees to Aunt Zhou's request, and besides, he also has high hopes for Jia Ke, a child.So tell Aunt Zhou to let her stay until Qin Keqing's full moon and then come back.
