Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 231

Xiao Wenqing was peeling peanuts in her hands, and upon hearing the words, she had no choice but to say: "It's eleven days late. I'm worried that it might be due to a delayed menstruation, so I'm not sure." Yu Xuan was very happy when she knew that her menstruation was late this month, and treated her as a fragile woman. He also said that the incense-making eunuch in the palace had already prepared incense that was very similar to the incense in the mother's room. When he got it back, he would quietly replace the incense that mother was using so that she would not have to burn it every time. After greeting her mother, she tried to find an excuse to leave, making people feel that she was perfunctory and unfilial.

"If you used to have a regular childhood, but this time it's too late, ninety-nine percent of you are pregnant again." Mrs. Liu said suddenly, "You had a miscarriage last time, even though the doctor said the baby was very young and miscarried. Your body has not been greatly affected, but as long as you have no good news, I won’t worry.” Some women who had miscarriages were unable to conceive no matter how hard they tried.She hoped that Wen Qing would not encounter that kind of bad luck.Wenqing's natal family is too weak, if Wenqing is barren, her husband's family will forcibly divorce her, leaving the position of regular wife to the new wife so that she can give birth to a son.

"Thank you, Sixth Sister, for your concern." Xiao Wenqing said gratefully.In the capital, apart from Yuxuan, the one who helped her the most was Sixth Sister.Regardless of whether Sixth Sister is out of interest or for the sake of siblings, in short, Sixth Sister really cares about her now.

Mrs. Liu raised her fingers and started counting the days, and then asked, "Wen Qing, have you prepared someone in the room?"

"Huh?" Xiao Wenqing was slightly taken aback.

"Wenqing, you know that a woman can't serve her husband during pregnancy, so she needs to find a trusted maid to serve her husband instead." Madam Liu said softly, "Yu Xuan has deep affection for you, and you have to do more for him." Think about it." She knew that Yuxuan's affection for Wenqing was just a man's nature... She was very fortunate that her husband and son-in-law had no concubine and only had one concubine, and that concubine was gentle and virtuous, knew how to advance and retreat, and was respectful and polite to her.The husband and son-in-law are busy with official duties all the year round, and the concubine's room plays the piano with her, plays chess and discusses female celebrities, and spends the boring time in the backyard together, which can be regarded as a sister.

Xiao Wenqing's hands peeling the peanuts froze immediately, and his eyes were fixed on the table.

"Ordinary rich men who can't take concubines will accept house maids, let alone officials who are allowed to take concubines by the court?" Madam Liu said softly, "You will cross this hurdle sooner or later. Once it's done, it's over."

Xiao Wenqing bowed her head and remained silent.

Mrs. Liu continued to persuade: "It's better for you to take the initiative to arrange it than to let your mother-in-law arrange it. You can't let her seize the opportunity to place someone next to you and Yuxuan." The mother arranged for her son to live in a rich family It is commonplace, if the prime minister's wife still does not give up on Yu Xuan, and is committed to suppressing and revenge Yu Xuan, she will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity.If the maids or concubines who are backed by someone make trouble for Wenqing every three days, Wenqing's child will be lost again if she cannot keep Wenqing.After several miscarriages and miscarriages, the woman's body will be completely broken, and by then... oh...

"Thank you, Sixth Sister, for reminding me. I will consider this matter." Xiao Wenqing said perfunctorily to Mrs. Liu in a low voice.She used to be Mrs. He's dowry maid, so she knows this matter best.Ever since she promised Yuxuan to go with him, she never thought of taking the initiative to arrange a servant girl for her husband and son-in-law like Mrs. He.If it wasn't for her mother's sympathy for her, and it is a tradition for a rich family to marry a daughter to send a dowry maid, she would not even want to bring Lue over.

"Choose a good person earlier, so that it is too late." Mrs. Liu turned to look at the crystal agate green calyx one by one, and then said, "Peach leaf, peach stamen, take the crystal agate green calyx for a walk." Now There are only five servant girls serving in the house.

"Yes, ma'am." After all, the maids are there to serve their masters. Although all the maids in the room are talking in low voices, they all pay attention to the two ladies. Hearing what the ladies are saying, they also know that the ladies want them to avoid it. .

Lue looked at Lue quickly, and lowered her eyes.

After all the maids left, Madam Liu said, "Which one of the three maids you are serving in front of you do you like best?"

"Crystal." Xiao Wenqing said without hesitation.

"Well, Crystal used to be the second-class maid in front of me, and she looks pretty good." Mrs. Liu suggested, "I think she is very docile and responsible, not the kind of big-hearted maid."

"Sixth Sister, Crystal likes Nan Fei, Yuxuan's bodyguard, and Yuxuan and I both want to help each other." Xiao Wenqing lowered her head and said, not letting Mrs. Liu see the sourness and irritability in her eyes.

"Oh, the guard is interested in a maid who has signed a death contract? Well, he has money to redeem Crystal. As long as you want, Crystal can marry him at any time. Wenqing, Crystal will have a great deal with you. Good luck." Mrs. Liu said in surprise.

"Then you are left with agate and green calyx. Let Yuxuan choose by himself. Anyway, their contracts are in your hands. If they dare to fight for favor, you will suppress their arrogance severely; Resentment will leave you with future troubles, and you will ask the matchmaker to find a widower for them in the future and let them go." Madam Liu said.From ancient times to the present, wealthy families have allotted unwanted house maids to servants or sold them, so she felt that it would be kind to arrange a decent home for them.

"Hmm." Xiao Wenqing replied in a low voice distractedly, her face was serious and pale.She was pregnant, and apart from protecting the baby, it was Yuxuan's personal needs.Will Yuxuan do something to hurt her heart when she conceived a child for him?
