Mu Huagui

Chapter 48 Miscarriage
The eldest lady happened to come back with the third young master Chen Zian. Chen Zian saw that everyone laughed when they saw him, and a little bit of resentment accumulated in his heart. He turned a deaf ear to the greeting of the eldest young master, and walked past the crowd with blank eyes.

Chen Zikang let out a "bah" from behind, "What is it, we still think we have the time to deal with his crap, and we are ashamed to talk about it even if he has the nerve to do it."

Chen Ziping shook his head and said to Huang Haoning, "Brother Haoning made me laugh, our third brother has been having some troubles recently, so he got a little bit more tempered."

"No hindrance, no hindrance, young and energetic is not like this." Although he was about the same age as Chen Zian, Huang Haoning showed a calmness that did not match his age.It's no wonder Master Huang dared to leave him alone in the capital without entrusting him to anyone to take care of him.

The three young men chatted and stared at the three young ladies in front of them, especially Qi Si who was young and loved to go to crowded places, and was picked up by Chen Ziping several times, and finally handed over to a mother-in-law in desperation. hold her, and don't allow her to run around.

Chen Jiao'er also looked around with great interest. She had never visited the market so generously in her two lifetimes, and she also found it very fresh and interesting.Hand-woven festive things, like carps in pairs of multicolored silk threads, and finger-sized shoes, are all addictive.

There are also families who sell their own dried goods that have been dried, including roasted fragrant corn and candied haws that exude a strong sweet fragrance.Looking at a bunch of candied haws that suddenly crossed in front of her eyes, Chen Jiao'er raised her head and saw a warm smile, she couldn't help being startled and said, "Give it to me."

"Yes, eat it quickly." Huang Haoning smiled brightly, stuffed them into her hand regardless, and stuffed the other two skewers into Qilu and Qisi respectively. The three of them took candied haws and bought a lot along the street. s things.Seeing that there were more and more people, Chen Ziping said, "Go back, grandma should be anxious in a while."

Although Qilu and Qisi didn't have enough fun, they knew the reason and obediently nodded in agreement.Chen Jiao'er was biting the sweet candied haws, and chatting with Cherry.

When she went back, the old lady had already sent Qin's mother to wait outside. When she saw everyone, she greeted everyone with a smile and hugged Qi Si. "The fourth wife and the third wife have returned together, and are waiting for the girls."

Just now the third wife and the fourth wife followed the second wife to the Eldest Princess to say hello, only the fifth wife has been hiding in the shed and refused to see anyone, and did not go out with them.Everyone knows what she's thinking, and it's hard to persuade her, so they can only let her go.

Soon the bell of Wuhua Temple rang, and everyone walked to the gate of the temple step by step on the road outside the arbor. Both Shuntian Mansion and Wuhua Temple sent people to guide them. Although there were many people along the way, it was very orderly.

The three young ladies, several wives and the old lady were all surrounded in the innermost part, outside were the young master and a few maids who were close to him, and the other servants who came with them sat in the awning and waited.

Wuhua Temple occupies a very large area. From the gate of the temple to the main hall inside, you have to pass through a huge square.Generally, if there are any big activities, such as opening an altar to preach scriptures or inviting eminent monks from other places to preach scriptures, a high platform is set up in the square, and then futons are placed for everyone to sit on and listen to the Dharma.

It's the same today. It's not the first time for people in the capital to participate, and those who came from other places also followed suit. Although there were a lot of people, they all sat down quietly.

Liu Shuhe was sitting in the temporary hut behind the high platform, Zhu'er was sweating nervously while holding the teacup, Mrs. Liu and her daughter-in-law also asked nervously, "How is it? Does drinking ginseng tea make you feel better?"

"It's all right, don't worry." Liu Shuhe took another sip from the teacup in Zhu'er's hand, which relieved the twitching feeling in her abdomen from time to time.The dress on her body and the pearl and emerald crown on her head seemed extremely heavy at this moment, pressing down on her like a mountain.But she had to straighten her back to maintain her status as the future empress.

"Shuhe goes up to offer sacrifices on behalf of the secular mortals, and just finish reciting a scripture. It will be soon, mother, don't worry." Liu Minzhi's wife, Zheng Fangyu, comforted her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, nervously looking at the ceremony outside from time to time. Proceed to that step.

"Well, mother, don't worry, my daughter is just a little nervous, and she's fine." Liu Shuhe asked Zhu'er to take out the bronze mirror to take a picture, and found that her face was very pale. On the first floor, there was a faint smell of incense in the hut.

"It smells good, but I've never smelled it before." Zheng Fangyu winked at her mother-in-law, and chatted with her sister-in-law, hoping to alleviate her nervousness and discomfort.

Mrs. Liu also understood, and hurriedly took up the conversation, "This is a newly opened rouge shop in the capital, and all the goods in it are rare things brought back from foreign countries by sea ships. I heard that this car is for the royal family in some country. Yes, such a small box costs a tael of silver."

The daughter's things are basically handled by Mrs. Liu. Whatever is rare or expensive in the capital must be bought back for her daughter's use, as if not showing her dignity.

Zheng Fangyu obviously knew very well that although she scoffed at this practice, she listened to her husband's persuasion and did not interfere.At this time, he even echoed, "It really is a good thing, just smelling it makes people feel refreshed."

There was the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and everyone shut up. Zhu'er opened the door curtain and took a look, then turned around and said, "It should be to invite the young lady."

Everyone stood up, only Liu Shuhe was still sitting upright, her body trembling slightly.An elderly monk approached and stood at the door and said, "All benefactors, the auspicious time has come, please come with the old man."

"Yes, master, please wait a moment." Zheng Fangyu replied, helped Liu Shuhe up, and said in a low voice, "Shuhe, take your time, don't panic, my mother and I will wait for you here."

"En." Liu Shuhe didn't care about other things, raised her skirt lightly and followed the monk step by step towards the high platform with a slight sound.

Liu Shuhe felt the discomfort in her abdomen became more and more obvious, as if someone was punching and kicking her inside, making her legs feel like they were tied with boulders, making her walk extremely heavy.

Gently wash her hands with water from a silver plate, take the offerings and place them in front of the table with her own hands. Immediately after offering incense, someone puts a futon in front of her, kneels down on the ground, and Liu Shuhe almost faints when she bends over. The pain made her want to roll to the ground immediately.

But no, tightly biting her lower lip with her teeth, constantly stimulating her senses, not to do anything here, Liu Shuhe warned herself in her heart.

A stream of blood flowed down the corner of her mouth, and her teeth had bitten her lips, but she herself didn't notice it at all at the moment, the sweat that broke out all over her body seemed to lock her in a steamer.

Sweat had soaked through the underwear and stuck it tightly on the skin. The sweat drops from the forehead fell down the cheeks to the floor in front of the futon one by one. The tick-tock hit Liu Shuhe's heart like an invisible drum.

After prostrating three times and prostrating nine times with great difficulty, the legs were like walkers who had just climbed the top of a mountain, trembling so much that they could hardly stand upright.Even the monks who were chanting at the side noticed something strange, but at this time, no one dared to make a mistake, so they could only pretend that they didn't notice and recited the scriptures sincerely.

After finishing a set of rituals, Liu Shuhe's unbearable pain spread from her abdomen to her whole body. What's going on?Obviously, I have been taking care of myself at ease, what happened?
Don't, don't leave me, my child, no... This is the last consciousness of Liu Shuhe who fell into a coma.

Master Liu received the news from Liu Minzhi himself, the first thing he did after returning home was to seal off his daughter's yard, and then asked if the news had leaked.Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she lost her mind. Seeing that her husband didn't care about her daughter's life and death when she came home, she even ordered several times to control all the family members who followed the car today. She was so angry that she wanted to argue with him.

Unexpectedly, Master Liu didn't slap Tianzao as usual this time, instead he had a gloomy face, and he slapped her directly without waiting for her to complain.

For a while, the whole room was silent, and Mrs. Liu covered her face in disbelief, a little dazed, and it took a long time to react and point to Master Liu, "You, hit me in front of Minzhi's wife."

In this family, Mrs. Liu cared most about her eldest son who was ten years old when she entered the house, and Zheng Fangyu, his regular wife who married when he became an adult.Because it was a continuation and did not give birth to a son, she had been preventing her daughter-in-law Zheng Fangyu from competing with her for the power of the housekeeper.Fortunately, her daughter was married by the Empress Dowager three years ago, and she straightened her back.

Unexpectedly, the husband would beat her in front of his daughter-in-law today.

Zheng Fangyu yelled inwardly. This non-genuine mother-in-law is the most stingy, and her father-in-law got angry about this matter today, and she will have a sad life in the future.But no matter how sad it is, I have to go through it, especially today's hurdle.

Unable to count on her mother-in-law, Zheng Fangyu had no choice but to go forward and salute in person, "Shuhe fell when she went down the steps. There should not be many people who saw it. Before we left, I also told the abbot of Wuhua Temple. The eldest lady is just recovering from a serious illness. She is physically weak. It’s not just a sprained foot.”

Seeing the father-in-law using his nose, he gave a "hmm" and said, "Daughter-in-law sees blood coming out from under her clothes, so she doesn't dare to disturb other people. The eldest lady who only helped her with mother and Zhu'er, the blood on the road has already made Zhu'er bring water." Rinse off."

"How did you get into the carriage from the quiet room? How many people saw it?" Liu Wenshi saw that his wife was still frightened and angry. I feel sorry for my daughter, and you must know that if this matter is not handled properly, it will be the crime of punishing the nine clans. Do you want thousands of people to be buried with you for your stupidity?"

At this moment, Mrs. Liu slowly reacted with fear. She covered her face and looked at her daughter-in-law and then at her husband. Shuhe's daughter-in-law.Resisting the numb face, he slowly said, "You guys, do you know what happened to Shuhe?"
