incense as a medium

Chapter 110 Pregnancy (1)

In the next few days, several things that happened in Tongluo Lane confirmed Qi Pei'an's letter one by one, so when Qi Pei'an returned to the door three times, Liu Bailu looked at her with some serious eyes.

However, Qi Pei'an was unwilling to say anything, and acted cautiously. He said that when Lord Du took office in a few days, she, Du Heng, Mrs. Du, and Du Shuang also set off for Beijing at the same time.

After thinking about it, Liu Bailu suddenly remembered that the Tatars kidnapped Qi Pei'an that night, those people were probably here for Qi Pei'an, but only she knew why those people kidnapped her.

Liu Bailu and Qi Peiyun talked about what was said in Qi Pei'an's letter for a while, and felt that there was no need to care about the queen. The letter said that she was a cruel and murderous person, even if she really became a queen, I'm afraid it will also make countless enemies, which is quite boring.

As for whether Qi Pei'an will tell this matter, it depends on the future, not to mention that this is her own opinion, and there are not many believers.

As for the destruction of the Qi family, Liu Bailu's opinion is to stop doing things for the fifth prince, but this is easy to say, but not easy to do.Not to mention the friendship between the two of them for many years, and the fifth prince's help when the Qi family was in crisis, but to say that the two of them simply don't have any capital to ask the fifth prince.

I'm afraid that if he said today that he would not do things for the fifth prince, he would be murdered tomorrow.

For this reason, Qi Peiyun still insisted on his previous opinion, that is, he hibernates at home and relies on Liu Bailu's teahouse to survive. As for some of the people he has accumulated over the years, although it looks like a lot, they can really be assigned and trusted by him. There are only a hundred people, and the living expenses of one hundred people are not a small amount. However, the Qi family does not have so much money to support these people. Qi Peiyun thinks over and over again to disband these people, but Liu Bailu does not agree.

She said that she could earn a lot of money from embroidery, and if Qi Peiyun's connections were used to sell those embroidery products, it would be enough to support these people.Although she would be slow to embroider if she tried to hide her needlework traces, there was no other way to avoid the fifth prince's eyes and ears.

Qi Peiyun didn't know what was the use of keeping these people, but Liu Bailu didn't say anything, and only asked Qi Peiyun to keep them.

Qi Peiyun couldn't screw Liu Bailu, so he had no choice but to agree.

After finishing all this work, Liu Bailu thought of the servants of the Liu family in the other courtyard built by Kang Yibang.The deeds of those people are all in his hands, since Kang Yibang said that the other courtyard has its own production to support those people, Liu Bailu doesn't have to worry about those people's livelihood, so he just called the four maids over and asked what they mean , and finally let Lan Mo go back to his hometown, and the other three people who had nothing to worry about stayed in the other courtyard.

Butler Hua and Nanny are getting old, they only want to spend time with the children, and they promised Kang Yibang to come here because they couldn't refuse, and they wanted to see the old master, so they followed.Therefore, Liu Bailu took the two of them to Liu's house for a few days, and then returned home with Lan Mo.

For the rest of the servants, Qingcheng asked them what they meant, and for those who were willing to return to their hometown, Liu Bailu returned the deed of sale, and for those who were willing to stay, she also explained that she had no money to support them, and she had to support them in everything in the future.As soon as this statement came out, seven out of ten people wanted to leave, and the last remaining people including Qingcheng were no more than a dozen people.It seems that they are loyal to the Liu family, but they are the ones Liu Bailu really dare not use.

After finishing these things, it was the end of June.

On this day, Liu Bailu was sitting in the yard embroidering flowers, while Qi Peiyun was washing clothes hard, and while washing his mouth, he kept talking about something, and when he was talking, he talked about what to eat at night: "Lady , I am tired of eating vegetables and tofu every day, can you stew braised pork for me tonight?"

"Not good." Liu Bailu refused without thinking.

"My lady, I want to eat meat." Qi Peiyun washed the clothes "scrubbing", as if to express his resentment.

"I don't want to eat." Since the day when Liu Su's heart knot was untied, Liu Bailu's behavior is very different from before. Although he still adheres to the old admonitions and follows some rules of interests, but there is nothing wrong with his words. No matter what scruples, I am happy to be straightforward.

"Miss, we haven't eaten meat for half a month." Qi Peiyun pitifully pointed at his face with wet fingers, and said, "Look, look, I've lost weight."

Liu Bailu didn't raise his head, and said impatiently, "I don't want to eat."

Under normal circumstances, as long as Liu Bailu shows such an impatient tone, it means that she has no patience. Qi Peiyun obediently washed the clothes. After a while, the smell of the food next door came over, and he smoked pitifully. Sniffing, said: "Grandma Zhou's house is cooking meat."

Liu Bailu also smelled the smell of meat, she frowned, covered her mouth, ran aside and retched.

Qi Peiyun was so scared that he jumped to her side and patted her on the back lightly, and asked eagerly, "What's wrong with you?"

"Ugh..." Liu Bailu didn't have time to answer him at all, the smell of oily smoke from the next door was mixed with the aroma of the food, and it smelled very good on weekdays, but today, when he smelled it, his stomach was overwhelmed.

Qi Peiyun was about to say something more, when he suddenly yelled, "Could it be that I'm pregnant? I've been working day and night these days! Think about it, I should have it!"

What work day and night?
Liu Bailu gave him a pale look. During this period of time, he seemed to make up for the regret of not touching her for a month. He tossed her day and night. If it wasn't for Qi Ding to take care of her, Liu Bailu was sure, Qi Peiyun definitely tied her to the bed for several days without getting out of bed.

"Ouch..." Just as her heart eased a little, before Liu Bailu straightened up, another burst of fragrance came, which made her heart sink and she bent over and vomited again.

This made Qi Peiyun very anxious, he jumped on his feet and said: "I told Grandma Zhou, tell her not to cook!"

"You come back!" Liu Bailu grabbed the corner of his clothes, and said angrily, "What's the matter with you? Grandma Zhou doesn't eat, so don't we? Ugh..."

"Okay, okay, whatever you say. I'll listen to you." Before Liu Bailu finished speaking, he retched again, and Qi Peiyun hurriedly nodded in agreement.He asked again, "Shall I call the doctor?"

Liu Bailu thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Go and come back quickly."

"Can you do it yourself?" Qi Peiyun was worried.

Liu Bailu caressed his heart, and said: "This is not a disease, what can I do? Go quickly."

"Okay!" Qi Peiyun agreed, and was about to go out when he remembered something and entered the main room. He pushed open the bedroom door and saw his mother Qi Dingshi giggling foolishly while holding his father's tablet. The door of the house was locked, and after thinking about it again and again, he simply locked all the doors and windows of the main room.

Liu Bailu saw it in his eyes, even though his stomach was full of pain, the corners of his mouth were still upturned uncontrollably, and his face that was as pale as paper just now had a touch of attractive pink.

Seeing that it was time for dinner, Liu Bailu entered the kitchen, but she didn't expect that the kitchen, which she didn't think much of in the past, now had a choking smell of oily smoke as soon as she entered it, so strong that she couldn't stand in it.

Liu Bailu stood at the door and looked at the stove that was close at hand. She had already entered three times just now, and each time she forced the firewood into the stove for the first time, lit the fire for the second time, and made the fire flourish for the third time. , but this fourth time she couldn't get in anyway.

It takes time to add water to the pot, but she won't stay in it for a while and she has to come out to breathe, otherwise she will vomit it out, and all she vomits in her stomach is acid water.

"My lady! I'm back! Let the doctor show you!" Qi Peiyun pushed open the door, smiling triumphantly.

Liu Bailu stood at the door and looked at Qi Peiyun, touched his deflated stomach and said, "I'm hungry."

That pitiful look made Qi Peiyun's heart melt, and he quickly walked forward to help Liu Bailu back to the east wing, and said: "I'll cook, the lady is good to rest, and you can cook in a while." Yes, I'll wash and cut them for you."

As soon as he heard that he was going to enter the kitchen, Liu Bailu's peach blossom eyes sparkled, and he said with a trace of fear and reluctance: "I can't enter the kitchen. I can't bear the smell in there."

Looking at those watery eyes, Qi Peiyun nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, let's order food from outside today, and I will learn to cook in the future. You don't have to cook, what do you want to eat?"

Liu Bailu bit her lip and said, "Scrambled eggs, fried cherry tomatoes, and a plate of spicy peppers. Then a small pickle and a few light side dishes, um, no onion, ginger, and garlic."

The dish she asked for was very common, but the holy maiden fruit among them was a tribute item, and it was extremely hard to find in this pass. Qi Peiyun nodded without hesitation, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go get the Go buy it when the fire in the stove goes out, let the doctor feel the pulse first."

"Okay." Liu Bailu nodded obediently.

Liu Bailu rolled up his sleeves, and put a silk handkerchief on his wrist to let the doctor feel his pulse. Soon, the doctor said he was happy, Liu Bailu looked happy, and kept asking about things to pay attention to during pregnancy.

The doctor stroked the goatee and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, as long as you don't eat cold things, you will be fine."

Liu Bailu wondered, "Where are the musk and other things?"

The doctor laughed and said: "Who would put a large piece of musk next to him? Don't worry, generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with it. If you are weak, you need to take precautions, but Mrs. Guan Qi is healthy, so it's fine. If you are not at ease, you can use no spices."

"Thank you." Liu Bailu saluted with a smile, and said, "Please wait a little while, I'll go get the consultation fee."

Liu Bailu paid the consultation fee, but the doctor didn't leave. She was curious, but she didn't ask too many questions. Fortunately, the doctor consciously went to the stone table in the yard and sat down.

After serving the tea, Liu Bailu packed up the embroidery and went back to the room to embroider. About two quarters of an hour later, the door was opened, and Liu Bailu went out excitedly. Looking at Qi Peiyun who came in with a food box, he asked expectantly: "Would you like me?" where's the food?"

Qi Peiyun nodded to the doctor, hugged Liu Bailu into the room, and took out the meals one by one.

Liu Bailu stared eagerly at the food box, licked her lips from time to time, and watched the seven or eight side dishes brought out, but there was no cherry tomato, so she pursed her mouth: "Where are the cherry tomatoes?"

　Cherry tomatoes~ What a high-end and foreign-style name, in fact, it is a little tomato... By the way, it seems that there has been a lot of plagiarism recently~~~ The historical materials in this article, similar to the funeral etiquette before, are all copied I copied it from the source book~ Some things are fabricated by me, because this article is superficial, the official system is based on the Ming Dynasty, and the living habits and humanistic customs are basically based on that time, but some things are fabricated by me... ...For example...For example, I forgot too...囧...People with bad memories can't afford to hurt...
