Three young grandmothers

Chapter 102: Sending Pearl Hairpins (1)
Seeing this, Mo Zixu was extremely astonished and horrified: Could it be that the eldest lady will be punished in advance?
No, it's not right, it's really a punishment, it's also swallowing books and taking poison as planned, how could it be held hostage by a few old and weak women and children?

Confused, Mo Zixu hurried over, stood in front of the group of people, and said to the somewhat unfamiliar nanny, "This woman committed a crime in the manor, and this nanny is going to kill her." Where is she taking?"

When the old mother saw that it was the third young lady, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Back to the third young lady, the old slave would not dare to take away the person who made a mistake without permission. This is an order from the master himself, saying that the old slave took Aunt Ju to... er , anyway, to take her to another courtyard in the southwest corner, and the old slave and the maid Xiang'er behind her were sent to wait on her until she gave birth to the child in her womb, the grandson of our Qifu!"

Master Qi?The grandson of Qifu?

Mo Zixu suppressed her excitement, she knew that if the old mother said so, it must mean that Ju'er was rehabilitated and her child was saved, and as a mother, at worst, she would not die when the child was born. To be executed, at that time, there is still a lot of time, and it is possible to think of a way to save Ju'er from death in the end. Although, I don't know who reported the matter to Master Qi, and what evidence they used to let Ju'er Master Qi believed this.

So, Mo Zixu deliberately asked in puzzlement, "Oh, didn't you say yesterday that the flesh and blood in Ju'er's belly were wild species? Why did he become the grandson of our Qifu in a blink of an eye?  … Whether it's a man or a woman is still undecided."

As soon as she heard her say that, Ju'er immediately raised her eyes and stared at her fiercely, her eyes seemed to be poisoned.

Liu'er looked at it, and said to herself: This Ju'er really doesn't have a good heart, but the young lady ran and broke her leg to save her.

On the other hand, Mo Zixu didn't take it seriously, and just listened to the old mother's explanation.

"Third young lady doesn't know. When the old slave was called to the study by the master, the second young master was also there. The old slave heard it with his own ears. It was the second young master who admitted to Master Qi, saying that the child is his flesh and blood, and that even in case of death If not, he also considers it to be his, and a man must always have a sense of responsibility. As for whether it is a man or a woman, isn't it just in case it is a grandson's?"

The second young master... admit it?
Mo Zixu became more and more confused, yesterday the man was planning to attack Ju'er at night, why did he turn himself in after one night?
"Then it's going to be really hard for you mother." Mo Zixu said, and stretched out his hand in front of Liu'er. Liu'er understood, and hurriedly took out a small ingot of silver from the purse, and gave it to Mo Zixu's hand. This is a bounty for information.

Mo Zixu changed hands and stuffed it quietly into the old nanny's rough hand, and said with a smile, "Since I am a descendant of the Qi family, I must be different from others, so I can't be negligent. I am young, but I also know the pain of taking care of pregnant women. It's a shame that Mammy has to go to that side courtyard, it's such a small thing, just buy some tea for Mammy and this Xianger girl, and add some rouge ointment to smear."

The old nanny narrowed her eyes with a smile, and tried harder to tell what she knew, "The third young mistress is really sympathetic to our servants, isn't it? It can also be regarded as a place of tranquility, but it is an honor to serve others, but to serve her... But it is the heir of the mansion, and he must be treated with care. What's more depressing is that the master ordered Oh, that side courtyard has to be locked all the time, this...here, if she doesn't give birth to a child, she won't be able to come out for a day! After giving birth, she will adopt the child to the Second Young Mistress to raise it, we are servants Yes, so I moved to the second young master's courtyard to serve, this is the end of the hard days."

The implication is to put Ju'er under house arrest until delivery.

Mo Zixu understood, no wonder the old nanny always vaguely mentioned the word "Aunt Ju", which meant that today's Ju'er no longer has any status, the mansion As long as her children, not her people.

As the concubine who married the fourth young master, Hong Xing had an affair with the second young master, so the fourth young master naturally kicked her out; Women with bad morals are accepted as partial houses.

Taking care of the face of a wealthy family, Ju'er will not be able to have a bright future in this life, and she can't even consider herself the mother of her child, at best she can be regarded as the child's "nanny", and because the child is the seed of the second young master after all, Therefore, it was accepted under the knees of the second young lady.

I have inquired about everything that should be inquired, and now there is only one thing that is unknown.Mo Zixu pretended to be understanding and smiled, "I will always be there. If necessary, I will send Liu'er to deliver some daily necessities from time to time. Actually, in the final analysis, it is the second young master of our mansion. Be kind and dare to take responsibility, otherwise, wouldn’t two lives be lost in vain?”

Mo Zixu deliberately brought the topic to the second young master, and gave the second young master a top hat. She knew that if the nanny knew the inside story, she would definitely reveal it uncontrollably.

Sure enough, when the old mother heard that the second young master dared to take responsibility, she quickly covered her lips and snickered, "The third young lady is really a kind person, everyone is kind, I don't know why the second young master would stand up, Anyway, yesterday he kept denying it, but today his attitude has changed drastically. When I was in the study, the old slave vaguely heard him and the master talking about the third young master and the rice shop. The specifics, the old slave is not clear .”

Third Young Master...

Mo Zixu was taken aback, why...how did he get involved?

Seeing that she was silent and didn't stay any longer, the old mother said goodbye, "Third young lady, I won't bother you here anymore, this old slave has to go to the courtyard to clean up, so I'm leaving first. "

Mo Zixu answered absent-mindedly, watched the group of people pass by, and recalled in his mind all the things the old nanny said before, and finally came to a sudden realization.Daringly, the person who made Young Master Qi realize his epiphany overnight was actually her husband-in-law who caused sabotage last night, Qi Lianchen?
Just like what the old mother said to Mo Zixu, the second young master had indeed heard what his third brother said last night, and was afraid that Master Qi would be angry and disappointed with him, so he went to the study to find the master early this morning. He frankly admitted that he had an affair with Ju'er, but he didn't say that Ju'er's child was his, but pretended to be a man's responsibility.
