On the way to escape famine, my parents divorced

Chapter 199 Please take good care of Li Niang and Mao'er.

(Thanks to Fat Tiger 10 for voting for 1 monthly ticket.)
Li Chunli and Liu Shu's first child was a little girl born on the 15th day of July.

A child born at such an hour was not even given a wet nurse in the Zhenbei Palace. Li Chunli had to breastfeed the child herself!

Even if Li Chunli was willing to breastfeed, how could she, who had already injured her body during childbirth, have enough energy to produce milk to feed a child?

Qin Tao had to feed the child rice soup for two days. She looked at the child in her arms who looked like a kitten, and the child's weak breathing was really unbearable.

After Qin Tao raised her head, she saw Li Chunli half-leaning on the quilt on the bed. Looking at Li Chunli's bloodless lips, Qin Tao knew that this could not go on. She had to find a wet nurse and take good care of Li Chunli.

Is there anyone in this noble family who can breastfeed the child personally?
Qin Tao fed the last mouthful of rice soup into the mouth of the little girl whose nickname Li Chunli gave her was "Mao'er". After burping the girl, she coaxed the girl to sleep.

As soon as she put the cat down, Qin Tao took a clean cloth and dipped it in hot water to wipe Li Chunli's body. It would take some time for the lochia to be discharged.

After watching Li Chunli drink more than half a bowl of meat porridge and coaxing her into falling asleep, Qin Tao gave a few instructions to the little girl who was specially serving Li Chunli, wrapped the cat up again, and went out with it.

Why did Qin Tao go out?

That, of course, is to find someone who can allow Mao'er and Li Chunli to live a good life in this palace!

Who is this person?

Naturally, it can only be Mao'er's father, the biological father of the child born by Li Chunli, Prince Liu Shu!

Qin Tao originally thought that Liu Shu should be a sentimental man. After all, on the day Li Chunli gave birth, she watched Liu Shu's performance and he looked like a caring man.

But the reality is so slapping!
The cat has been born for so many days, but Liu Shu has never appeared once.

If you say that a woman is in the postpartum period and needs to stay in confinement, you cannot enter the house, that is true;

But you can't come to see Li Chunli, but you can always come to see the cat, right?

This is your own child!

Even if you don't come yourself, you can at least send someone to deliver some things. At least it can make Li Chunli live more comfortably and eat better, right?
However, after so many days, not even a single thing has been delivered, let alone people!
Li Chunli risked her life to give birth to a baby for you, and you didn't even show any appreciation?
Liu Shu, how can you still have the heart to do this?

However, no matter how angry Qin Tao was in her heart, she always looked calm on the surface.

She bribed the midwife who delivered Li Chunli that day in advance, and learned from the midwife, or rather from the midwife's husband, who worked as a groom in the stables of the palace, that Liu Shuhui would go out in a carriage at 9 o'clock today.

Qin Tao held the cat in her arms and carefully avoided the maids and servants walking back and forth on the road, and went to the corner that was necessary to pass to reach the stable.

When they reached the corner, Qin Tao hid behind the wall with the cat in her arms, waiting quietly for Liu Shu to come.

The cat is a good and obedient child. As long as he is full and has food in his stomach, he will be good and not cry or make a fuss.

The cat was sleeping at this moment. Qin Tao pulled open a corner of the quilt and looked at the cat sleeping soundly with its eyes closed. Her eyes were full of tenderness.

More than a quarter of an hour later, Qin Tao heard footsteps coming closer and closer. She knew that Liu Shu was coming.

Liu Shu walked in front, and the servant followed behind Liu Shu one body length behind her.

When the two of them passed this corner, Liu Shu didn't notice Qin Tao standing at the corner at first. It was only after Qin Tao called out "Your Highness the Crown Prince" that Liu Shu stopped.

When Liu Shu turned around, she saw Qin Tao standing by the wall holding a cat. No matter how angry Qin Tao was, it all turned into "pity" when she saw Liu Shu.

Qin Tao took a step forward and knelt down directly in front of Liu Shu who was looking at her with a puzzled look. She knelt on the ground, holding the cat in her arms, and looked up at Liu Shu with a begging and pitiful look. The book boy was shocked and he quickly stepped forward to block Liu Shu.

However, after being startled, Liu Shu looked carefully again. Facing Qin Tao's relatively young face, he realized that he had lived in Qin Tao's home for some time and had been taken care of by Qin Tao personally. Naturally, Liu Shu recognized that this person was Qin Tao, the mother of his maid Li Chunli.

Liu Shu said to the servant who had already scolded Qin Tao: "Wait a minute."

Qin Tao knew at this time that she had to seize the opportunity. She didn't need to pretend anymore. Whenever she thought of what Li Chunli and Mao'er had experienced in the past few days, tears flowed out of her eyes like they were free.

When people cry, especially women, it takes a certain level of skill to cry beautifully and not be annoying.

And Qin Tao is a woman who is very good at crying.

She once cried in front of Li's father very well, which made him feel sorry for her and caused Li's mother to suffer a lot.

At this moment, she cried very restrainedly. Her red eyes, two lines of tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, her red nose, and even the degree to which her lower jaw was raised were all controlled by her.

At least, when Liu Shu saw Qin Tao crying like this, he was reluctant to let his servant scold her.

"You are Li Niang's mother, why don't you take good care of Li Niang?
You actually came here?"

Qin Tao said nothing, but carefully opened a corner of the quilt in her arms, revealing the skinny little face of the cat.

"Your Highness, Mao'er is your biological child. Please give Mao'er and Li Jie'er a chance to live."

Looking at the little face wrapped in the quilt in Qin Tao's arms and hearing Qin Tao calling her "Mao'er", Liu Shu knew that this was the child born on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month.

His child with Li Chunli.

Liu Shu subconsciously raised her leg and took half a step back, then stood still. Facing Qin Tao's tearful eyes, she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

But before he could get over the embarrassment, he heard Qin Tao talking about the treatment she had received in Li Chunli's yard these days: "There was not even a wet nurse, and the cat had been drinking rice soup for two days."

The crying voice made people feel pity, and Qin Tao was talking about his concubine and the child between them.

"Your Highness, please have mercy on Sister Li and Mao'er!"

Liu Shu looked at Qin Tao who lowered her head, and listened to what Qin Tao said. He knew in his heart that because Mao'er was born on the 15th day of the seventh month and was a little girl, the princess did not love her, at least not as much as she loved Shou'er.

The princess was unhappy, so the people under her naturally followed suit, which resulted in Mao'er not even having a wet nurse.

You know, Shou Ge'er is still drinking human milk.

"Okay, I get it.

I'll tell my mother later and ask her to arrange for two wet nurses to go there and give some money to Li Niang.

You should take good care of Li Niang and Mao Er."

After saying this, Liu Shu turned around and left.
