The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 740: Madam Wang Gives Birth

Hot Spring Villa, the courtyard where Mrs. Wang lives.

In front of the house, Zhang Yun逸, Xia Jing癸 and Jia’s mother, this strange combination, were staring at Xiren and other maids carrying basins of water as they came in and out.

Even in modern times, Mrs. Wang is considered an elderly mother, and Zhang Yunyi's face showed some anxiety.

Xia Jingui pressed her delicate body against Zhang Yunyi desperately, her face full of teasing. From time to time, she turned her head to the other side to look at the embarrassed Jia Mu.

Originally, Grandmother Jia didn't want to cause trouble for herself as her own daughter-in-law gave birth to a child for someone else.

However, the child was nominally born to Xia Jingui. It was understandable that she didn't let her family come because the journey was too long, but if she didn't come herself, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

However, after arriving, he heard his daughter-in-law working hard in the house, but he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. It was so embarrassing.

He could only make small talk: "It is already the winter month. When the baby is one month old and the national mourning period is over, Yun Yi, you can take care of the full-month wine..."

The retired emperor passed away at the end of May, and by the end of this month, it would have been exactly six months since his death.

If this child was really born to Xia Jingui for Jia Baoyu, there would be no reason not to do it.

But Grandmother Jia knew it very well, and before this, the children of Qin Keqing and others did not hold banquets because of the national mourning.

She had to seek the opinion of Zhang Yunyi, the real person.

"Just have fun among yourselves in private, no need to invite outsiders. When the national mourning period is over, we will bring the concubines and their families over from both sides, and the old lady will also come here to stay for a few days."

Last year, he was unable to come to the hot spring villa because he took a concubine, and Qin Keqing and others had been looking forward to it.

If it hadn’t been for the national mourning period, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have waited until now.

It just so happened that by then Mrs. Wang would have finished her confinement, and Zhang Yunyi planned to take all the beauties in the Grand View Garden over as well.

The Beijing-Tianjin Railway was opened ahead of schedule, and Zhang Yun逸 arranged for the idle engineering team to build employee dormitories for the Tiangong Institute outside the city. At the same time, he also expanded the hot spring villa.

Some cement brick and stone houses were added around the original three courtyards.

Although it's not as good as home, I don't need to bring so many servants here, so I can barely settle down here.

Grandmother Jia did not dare to object, but hesitated and asked: "Then...what about Baoyu?"

Zhang Yunyi said unhappily, "What an unfilial son! He didn't even come to see his mother when she was giving birth."

After hearing what Zhang Yunyi said, Xia Jingui immediately became confident and quickly agreed, "Don't ask him to come. He makes me sick!"

Grandmother Jia also knew that Jia Baoyu was wrong, but she did not dare to blame Xia Jingui in front of Zhang Yunyi, so she could only make up for it by saying, "He hasn't received the letter yet..."

"Forget it! Since he is happy and at ease, just let him be. There are no outsiders here anyway, and everyone knows his playful and mischievous nature."

There is no harm without comparison. Zhang Yun逸 is actually happy to have Jia Baoyu to set off himself.

"Huh!" Grandmother Jia agreed, not daring to continue the topic, and hurriedly asked, "Have you thought of a name, Yun Yi? We have to go back home..."

"Just call me Jia Hao!"

In fact, Zhang Yun逸’s favorite name is Jia Zhu, and at worst it is Jia Yu.

After all, to some extent, this can be considered as another form of being a good son to Mrs. Wang.

However, Jia Zhu died early, and his name is homophonic with his, which does not have a good meaning.

Since dogwood is inseparable, he wanted to use the word "yu" instead, but the combination of Jia and Yu sounds like "turtle".

Wouldn't this make things uncomfortable for myself and my son?

So, after much thought, I decided to use "薅" instead.

All in all, all the women in the Rongguo Mansion, except the elderly Lady Jia, were taken advantage of by him, so the name is quite appropriate.

Speaking of names, Qin Keqing, Xiangling and the You sisters gave birth to five children in total a while ago, and they were all boys.

The ancients believed that the birth of a boy or girl was entirely up to the woman, but Zhang Yunyi knew that it was all his own fault. He couldn't help but wonder if something went wrong with his body when he traveled through time.

However, even if this problem really exists, it is not a big deal.

Let’s not talk about Zhen Chengsi for now. When Zhang Zian was born, he just wanted to enjoy a peaceful life, so he chose the word "An" when naming him.

Now, the great threat of Prince Ning has been eliminated, the Supreme Emperor has passed away, the Emperor will soon die, and the Prince is still in his infancy. It can be said that heroes are made by the times.

His state of mind was also different.

I chose the most familiar line from the teacher's poem "Remembering Qin'e·Loushanguan": "The long road to the pass is as hard as iron, but now I start over again."

He had trouble naming his child, so he simply picked the first five characters as the name. He planned to have more children in the future, so he completed the sentence in order to avoid worrying about the name later.

This is not because Zhang Yunyi is arrogant. With his ability, he can put aside the unclear things outside.

Even if one is well-known in the family, it is not impossible for one to put together two football teams, let alone a poem, to entertain oneself on weekdays.

Grandmother Jia had never intended to interfere in other people's affairs, so naturally she would not object to the name he chose.

As he was speaking, he heard a loud cry from inside the house.

Then, Sheyue and Qiu Wen rushed out impatiently and announced the good news: "The wife gave birth to a big fat boy..."

At this point, she saw the embarrassed Jia Mu and hurriedly bowed and said, "I congratulate you, sir, and I also congratulate the old lady..."

At the end of May, when Lady Jia came to visit, she really scared the two maids.

Even though Zhang Yun逸 had made a solemn promise, he still couldn't help feeling uneasy when he saw Lady Jia coming.

Unexpectedly, instead of raising an army to accuse them, Grandmother Jia pulled them and Xia Jingui and her servant aside and gave them a lecture.

They were asked to take good care of Madam Wang and keep the secret strictly. Now they were completely relieved.

Although this congratulation is a bit inappropriate at the moment, since Lady Jia is happy to accept it, what is there for them to be shy about?
Grandmother Jia had no choice but to bite the bullet, took out the red envelopes she had prepared in advance, handed them to the two of them and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

As he was speaking, Xiren came out holding a swaddling cloth and handed it to Zhang Yunyi first. After he had looked at it, she showed it to Lady Jia.

Finally, she handed the swaddling clothes to Zhang Yunyi and said after a slight hesitation: "Madam, please come in!"

Originally, Zhang Yunyi would not be invited into the house at this time.

But not only was Mrs. Wang present when Xiangling was about to give birth to her first child, but he also did not shy away from inviting Zhang Yunyi into the house after Wang Xifeng gave birth.

At this moment, I can't help but feel competitive.

It was naturally impossible for Zhang Yun逸 to favor one over the other.

He was used to holding children and was already familiar with the process. He took the child from Xiren and went straight into the house.

Xiren was really worried that Zhang Yunyi was afraid of the smell in the room. Not being able to report to Mrs. Wang was a small matter, but making Zhang Yunyi embarrassed was a big deal.

Seeing Zhang Yunyi enter the house without hesitation, she also put her worries to rest.

Then, looking at Lady Jia who was in a dilemma, she said sympathetically, "You don't have to worry, old lady. Madam and her child are safe. However, Master is worried about Madam and I'm afraid he won't be able to take care of her right now. Why don't you let me take you to rest first?"

She had lived in the hot spring villa the longest, and now her identity was revealed. She didn't beat around the bush and acted like she knew people and treated guests well for Zhang Yunyi.

However, she still held the title of Jia Baoyu's aunt, and these words made Grandmother Jia somewhat embarrassed.

Fortunately, there is no need to be in a dilemma here.

In addition, there is no harm without comparison. Compared with Xia Jingui, who always has a playful face, Xiren is undoubtedly much more considerate.

There was no point in complaining, so he followed Xiren closely to the outer courtyard.
