Chapter 290

When Xiang Ming heard that Madam wanted to let the toothmaid take away Xiuli, she couldn't bear it, and hurriedly kowtowed and begged: "Madam."

Lin Baozhu lowered her eyes, looking at Xiangming who looked anxious, and knew that Xiangming was going to say something nice next time.

"Xiang Ming, don't plead for her. If today she is just unwilling to be ordinary and wants to be the master's concubine, then I may be able to make an exception, or send her to a distant village, or drive her out of the house. Go to the house, so that she will not disturb her mood in the future. But you ask, is there someone behind her back to instigate her to do this?" Lin Baozhu glanced at Xiuli, and said with a sneer, "Xiuli Am I right? If no one said that to you, even if you were moved, you wouldn't dare to do such disgusting things easily. "

Xiuli raised her head in astonishment, and seeing Madam's clear eyes, her whole body seemed to be frozen.Thinking about it carefully, it seems that she really heard a lot of things from other people, and sometimes when she was shopping outside, she would meet a few maids from the government's mansion who said those things to her.
"Xiangming, go to the back and get a mahogany box from under my dressing table. It was originally the dowry I prepared for the four of you. Everyone is the same. I thought I would give it to Chunxi first, but I didn't expect it to be today." I have to give it to you first." Lin Baozhu shook her head, and said regretfully, "I gave you dignity, but I can't keep you anymore. How many people in the mansion are watching, and there are more than one or two people in the capital who provoke you. "

After finishing speaking, it happened that Zhang Mandun also changed his clothes and came in. Seeing his daughter-in-law getting up and walking over, he quickly reached out to support her.That appearance, proficient as if doing it every day.With a daughter-in-law in front of him, how can she catch his eyes if she is beautiful or not?
"At this time, Sheng Jin should wake up too. I'll let Nanny Liu carry me out later, and let's have a hot pot together." Because eating hot pot, he usually knows how to make mandarin duck pot, and Zhang Mantun has long been used to his daughter-in-law's non-spicy taste. I don't like it, so if you put too much food in the house, you will get the smell of hot pot everywhere.So whenever Lin Baozhu wanted to eat, he would arrange it in the wing room.Anyway, there are many houses in the Duke Huguo's mansion, so the rules are small and he doesn't care about those.

"Okay." Zhang Mandun looked at his daughter-in-law, seeing that her eyes were clear and there was no haze, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually subsided.

"Let's go out for a walk first. After sitting in the house for a long time, my back is sore."

There are two people, one with a sweet smile and the other with a tender heart. How could the viewers feel envious and want to destroy it?And with a sigh, Xiangming handed the wooden box to Xiuli, seeing that she was shaking her head and covering her face and crying uncontrollably, Xiangming had no choice but to ruthlessly tear her hand away and stuff it in.

"Madam has never treated you wrong. If you hadn't met Madam, what kind of life do you think a maid would have? Can she still eat and dress warmly, and be looked at by others when she goes out? Think about which maid in other houses Didn't you do it out of fear, as long as the master is unhappy, he will become a punching bag? That's all for you, you can see for yourself."

As Xiangming and the people in the room slowly retreated away, Xiuli opened the wooden box under her hand, and seeing the jewelry and list inside, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

If it wasn't for the greed in her heart, if she couldn't resist the instigation of outsiders, how would her life be nourished?It doesn't matter if she can't be the master, being a maid beside the wife is not much worse than Xiaojia Biyu of ordinary people. For a while, she regretted not doing it at the beginning.

In the end, when Xiuli left with Lady Human Ya, there was no more noise or complaints, but when she left the gate of Duke Protector's Mansion, she turned around and kowtowed firmly, and then burst into tears.Xiuli knew in her heart that the servants who were taken back by the toothmaid would have a good place to go if they never came back.
Especially those who were kicked out by the Lord Protector's Mansion, who are willing to accept them all over the capital?
Just when she lowered her head and had no intention of thinking about the future, the side door of Duke Huguo's mansion opened again, and the mansion doctor came out in a hurry, watching her hesitate to speak.

"You don't have to blame yourself. I'm not pregnant at all. What I said before was a lie to you."

But the mansion doctor sighed, walked out of the gate of Duke Huguo's mansion with a medicine box in his hand, and said, "I'm afraid there will be no place for me to practice medicine in the capital. If you are willing to go away with me to live a poor life , I spent my savings to redeem you."

As the doctor of the Huguogong's family, he helped Xiuli to frame the Huguogong. After thinking about it, he knew that the wife and the master would never keep him again.Fortunately, he did not sell himself to the Duke Protector's Mansion, so it would be convenient for him to leave now.Although he doesn't have much money, as long as Xiuli is willing to endure hardships, he is confident that he can support her.

Afterwards, Xiangming and the others inquired privately that Xiuli had left with the doctor, but their whereabouts were unknown.But just like this, it also made them feel relieved. The worthless maids are afraid that they will be sent to those dirty places by the prostitute sooner or later.Now knowing that she can escape the sea of ​​suffering is always good.

Xiangming and Chunxi Dongmei didn't figure it out at first, thinking that Xiuli was really lucky, but after some advice from Nanny Liu, they finally realized that the reason why the government doctor wasn't directly questioned was probably because his wife gave Xiuli a piece of advice. retreat.

Sure enough, no matter how cold the wife is on the face, she is still kindhearted in her heart.Due to various reasons, she couldn't let Xiuli go, but she didn't want to really drive people to death.Therefore, she asked the government doctor to go out, as long as there is some kindness between the two of them, as long as Fan Xiuli can wake up, she will only live a life of poverty in the future, but she will not be completely destroyed.

In fact, Lin Baozhu didn't really think about anything else, she just felt that no matter how beautiful she was, she would always be an innocent girl when she was by her side.Even if she doesn't know the ways of a woman with a human tooth, she also understands in her heart that if Xiuli goes back, she will not get well.

It's not her mother anymore, it's the modern education Lin Baozhu has received for more than 20 years that makes her unable to do things like ruin a woman's innocence and future.In this patriarchal society, women's lives are already difficult, how can she be cruel?

Now, if she gave Xiuli a chance, it was just to break the friendship that Xiuli had served by her side for so many days.

By March, people began to send invitations to the mansion for banquets.Originally, Lin Baozhu was too lazy to socialize, but thinking of the increasing rumors in the capital and people's speculation about the back residence of the Duke Protector's mansion, it was really unbearable.

Even the so-called eldest princess who stayed in the capital of Nanzhao Kingdom hasn't calmed down yet, and has people hanging around her every day.This made the concierge in the house and the shopping maids and mother-in-law really unbearable. They even asked her to come to her several times, and sometimes they even got the tea to please them.

Although she thought it was funny, she also knew that it would not be a good thing if it continued like this.Furthermore, according to Huang Li, although those matchmakers and women have been afraid to come forward to propose a kiss due to the master's cold face and threats recently, there has been a trend of ministers befriending each other in the court.As a result, the master is now unwilling to meet with the ministers of the court except for the necessary court meeting.Simply, after discussing with Zhang Mandun, Tong Xiuniang's sister-in-law, she decided to hold a banquet on the Shangsi Festival on March [-] to invite all the wives and ladies in the capital to gather together.

The Shangsi Festival was originally a festival to commemorate the Yellow Emperor.According to legend, March [-]rd is the birthday of the Yellow Emperor, so since ancient times, there has been an old saying in Dazhou that "on February [-]nd, the dragon raises its head; on March [-]rd, Xuanyuan is born".Since the beginning of the previous dynasty, this day has been designated as the Shangsi Festival. If it is an ordinary family, it should be a banquet by the water and a spring outing in the countryside.

However, in the capital, all the noble ladies and masters have accepted the posts, and it would be inconvenient if they were all assigned to Zhuangzi.Simply, Lin Baozhu decided to hold the banquet in the garden of Duke Protector's Mansion. It happened that there was a lotus pond with lotus flowers and lotus roots buried in the garden, so it was considered suitable for the occasion.

The Duke's Mansion has only held a banquet for more than two years, and it was a post made by Mrs. Hu Guogong herself, so it must have made everyone in the family have an extra guess.There is a second daughter in the family who has reached the marriageable age, so she is naturally excited. As soon as she got the news, she made new clothes for her daughter and bought new jewelry, trying to make her daughter stand out from the crowd.

For those who don't have a daughter at home, after the couple's discussion, they also hurriedly called the relatives in the clan to recruit their nieces and nieces to the house.I just thought that on the second day, I could win the favor of Duke Hu Guo, so that my niece or niece could also have a good future.

As for those things, Lin Baozhu didn't know, and it was even more impossible for Zhang Mantun to think of them.Right now, he is focusing on hugging his wife and feeling the beauty of her belly bulge.

"Daughter-in-law, why isn't he moving?" Zhang Mandun frowned, and finally couldn't hold back after holding it in for a long time.The daughter-in-law said that the child would move a long time ago, but every time he touches it, the child never gives face.

Lin Baozhu rolled her eyes, and said speechlessly: "How can you keep moving, is it possible that you don't even need to rest?"

Just as he was talking, Zhang Mandun felt a lump suddenly bulge under his hands, his eyes widened in shock, and he stammered, "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, move."

That cautious vigor, as well as the cautious look that didn't dare to move a generous slap, directly provoked Lin Baozhu to burst into laughter.Xu remembered the first time he volunteered to ask Madam Liu to hug Shengjin. At that time, she woke up and opened her eyes, but didn't she just hear a series of "wife, daughter-in-law" cries for help?
"Yes, your daughter is greeting you." Lin Baozhu said, she attached her hand to the rough hand of her own man, and then carefully moved the baby in her belly along her belly.

At this time, the fetal movement can already change with the external interaction.Right now, feeling the movement of the baby in the wife's belly, wouldn't it make Zhang Mandun, a burly man, dance with joy?

The two of them leaned close to each other, discussing excitedly for a long time around the bulge that moved at that time.It wasn't until Nanny Liu came over holding Sheng Jin who was rubbing his eyes, saying that the young master insisted on finding his wife to coax him to sleep, then Zhang Mandun reluctantly withdrew his hand and gave up his seat.

Of course, he couldn't bear to let the stinky boy make a fuss over his wife, and he didn't dare to let him pounce on his daughter-in-law, so he took his son from Mammy Liu's arms and coaxed him spontaneously.

After his wife became pregnant, he found that his ability to coax children had improved.
