I’m the Legitimate Wife - C201 Conspiracy to Ming Wei's Daughter (Part II)

While Xu Mingwei was walking around, Lady Jin thought it was still early, so she went to the kitchen and personally cooked a big bowl of chicken noodle soup. The bottom soup was the old mother’s chicken soup that had been simmering for an entire day and night. The oil had already been poured once, and after a long, gentle simmering, the chicken had melted along with its bones and meat. Then she cut the breast of the young duck, added a layer of water, and mixed it with a layer of pulp. The slices of bright green cucumber were neatly applied to the noodles, and finally, with some ham silk and chicken hair, she brought them over to the house in a steaming manner.

Xu Mingwei was originally hungry, and although she had just eaten the longevity noodles, the moment she smelled the smell, her stomach made a sound. A smile appeared in Lady Jin’s eyes, but her expression was still cold, and she said gently: “Grandmother needs to rest for now, when I need to use my strength, I can’t stop eating until I’m full.”

Xu Mingwei did not need her persuasion, she grabbed the table and started eating happily. A bowl of hot broth flowed down her throat, causing him to sweat profusely. She felt extremely comfortable in her heart. Unfortunately, she had already changed into a new dress, so she couldn’t use it anymore.

At this time, Fu Heng also rushed over from the study room, his face full of anxiety and joy, “How’s the situation? Listening to Wan Rong say that she was about to give birth? Should I go and talk to Mother first? ”

A whole series of questions left people unsure which one to answer first. As Xu Mingwei was enduring the occasional stomachache, the Old Lai family head helped her answer, “Young Master, don’t panic. In this short period of time, when we’re not even born yet, there’s already a sign. As for Madam, you should go and inform the others yourself. It will take me two hours to make any movements, judging from how this old servant is currently acting. ”

Fu Heng’s heart calmed down, but seeing Xu Mingwei’s frown, he knew that she was someone who could endure. She could not help but feel sorry for her. However, having a child was something he could not help at all. After thinking about it for a while, he said to her, “Just bear with it. It’ll be good as long as it is born.”

The Old Man of the Lai family was listening at the side and wanted to laugh for no reason. What else could he do if he couldn’t bear it? It wasn’t Lawson’s bullshit.

A few voices suddenly came from the outside, it was the stable woman that had arrived. It was inconvenient for Fu Heng to stay in the house, so he went to Wang Shi’s courtyard to receive information. His father’s mother was sitting in the courtyard taking a cool nap after dinner. When she heard that her daughter-in-law was about to give birth, she became so excited that even the melon in her hands flew away. She hurriedly sat up and changed. Fu Heng immediately stopped him, and said, “The servant in the house said, it’s not time yet, it’ll take at least another two to four hours.”

Lady Wang shook off his hand and said, “She’s been waiting for six hours. Let alone one or two hours already.”

However, Fu Hongbo glared at him and scolded, “Such a good thing, I can wait six hours no matter how I say it, is it necessary to wait like that?”

Lady Wang came back to her senses and quickly spat on the ground. She kowtowed towards the sky and said, “Lord Bodhisattva, I believe that this woman has a mouth but no heart. Please don’t blame her …”

Seeing his father’s mother being so nervous, Fu Heng unknowingly thought of what Xu Mingwei had said, “If she’s a son, then it’s made out of gold and silver. If she’s a daughter, then she’s made out of mud, right?”

When they arrived at Fu Heng’s courtyard, there was no one inside. After asking, they knew that he had activated it and sent it to the delivery room. Mrs Wang could not help but stamp her feet, but it was unknown who said, “I already said to come earlier, but you just had to stop me.”

Fu Heng only thought that she was not angry at him. The delivery room was not far away, and after walking a few steps, they reached it. Meng Ting was already stopped outside, afraid that if they were young, they would cause trouble, but Wan Rong and Wan Rou were called in to help, and only occasionally one person went in to get hot water and a clean handkerchief.

Lady Wang stared intently at him, then said to Fu Heng, “There’s still no blood, you’re long gone.”

From inside, Xu Mingwei’s groan could be heard, as though she had bit onto something, causing her heart to be crushed. Hearing Lady Wang’s casual words, Fu Heng’s eyebrows tightened, as though she was feeling uncomfortable.

Just as he was speaking, he suddenly heard Xu Mingwei’s sharp scream, and the Old Lai’s family members were asking for hot water again. The few people who were waiting outside couldn’t help but become nervous as well.

“Madam, the Xu Family’s Eldest Wife and the Xu Family’s Old Master are here, you invited them here just like that?” The gatekeeper met Nanny Xue from a distance, Nanny Xue hurriedly entered the courtyard and passed on the message.

Lady Wang was displeased. She hadn’t even been born yet, and she already came here late. Was she afraid that the Fu Family would mistreat her daughter or something? What a big thing! Isn’t it just having a baby? Even a hen could lay eggs, but no one could do anything about it. However, she still put on a friendly expression as she turned her head and said, “Hurry up and invite him in. There are even more tables and stools outside. When the guests arrive, there won’t even be a place to put the tea bowls.”

Nanny Xue heard the anger in her tone and thought to herself, what’s going on? Isn’t it a happy thing that my daughter-in-law is about to be married off? She didn’t dare to ask and quickly invited them in.

The Lady Helan and Xu Tiangang followed the Nanny Xue in, and as soon as they walked in, they heard sounds from inside. Lady Helan, the mother, had not even opened her mouth to speak when tears fell from her eyes. Wang Shi who was standing next to her, jumped in fright. The sense of injustice in her heart dissipated a little. She thought of her own daughter who had been married off to her, and couldn’t avoid this trip in the future.

“How long has it been in there?” The Lady Helan wiped her tears and asked embarrassedly.

Mrs Wang said, “It hasn’t even been an hour. When Heng Ge’er came to call him, she said that it was still early, but didn’t expect that once it was over, she would already be sent back to live. ”

Xu Tiangang and Fu Hongbo were about to sit down, but they suddenly heard muffled groans and painful cries from inside. The teacup in his hand trembled lightly.

After Fu Heng came over to pay his respects, Xu Tiangang looked at him absentmindedly and said, “Master Han’s letter was still in my study room. I came out in such a hurry today, I forgot to bring it over for you. “When you’re free, come by yourself.”

If it was any other time, Fu Heng would definitely be happy for a while if he could get a comment from a scholar. He would immediately go and get the letter. But at this very moment, his mind was preoccupied with Xu Mingwei, and he could only smile faintly upon hearing this, as he thanked him. Your son-in-law will come back another day. ”

Fu Hongbo listened at the side and was overjoyed. The Xu family was a noble family, and the Lady Helan was the favored daughter of the Lady Helan of the Yin Mountain, so they would casually arrange a marriage to receive a lot of benefits.

Just as they were thinking, blood started to flow out from the delivery room. The originally white handkerchief was dyed a light pink as it swayed slightly with the blood. Lady Helan and the rest felt their hearts tighten. I wanted to stop a little girl to ask, but seeing that they were so busy that they wanted to fly, Lady Helan had no choice but to stop.

“Be at ease, my dear mother. The stable woman that you have invited this time is the best in the capital. There can be no mistakes.” Finally, Lady Wang said something decent, the Lady Helan turned around and smiled at her, the worry in her eyes not missing by a bit.

A woman giving birth to a child is no different from walking through the gates of hell. Whether it was good or bad, sometimes it was just a little bit bad luck. Xu Mingwei was only sixteen years old. Although the He Lan family’s daughters would easily give birth, the Lady Helan still couldn’t help but feel worried. Until the last moment, she would just stay calm and not land.

“It was born!”

Everyone outside was anxiously waiting, when they suddenly heard a burst of laughter from inside. Clearly, it had already been born. Mrs Wang was delighted, she could not wait to enter, but fortunately Lady Helan pulled her in time, “Don’t worry, my dear mother, wait until stable woman is done cleaning, then we can get close.”

Mrs Wang’s face was full of happiness as she laughed, “My mother’s words are still true. I had almost forgotten.”

The Lady Helan covered her mouth and laughed, “If Niang Niang calls herself an old grandma, what should we do if we bury her? There is no place for us to put our old face anymore.”

After being interrupted like this, Lady Wang did not intend to go further in and could only patiently wait for stable woman to bring the child out to meet her.

Although Fu Heng was anxious, but thinking about the previous matter, if he did not take advantage of this situation to speak, it would be too late in the future. He purposely told Lady Wang, “It really was born at this time.” Last night, his son had dreamt it. The sky was filled with multicolored light, and the immortal elder who sent the child said that this child’s predecessor had done countless good deeds, thus saving up the fortune of having been born into our family. His life was smooth and he could settle down at home. I did not believe it in my dreams, but laughed and called the old man full of nonsense. The immortal elder was displeased and threw the child into the air. I stretched out my hand to receive it, but the dream woke me up. When he woke up, he could still remember the old man smiling as he left, saying that it would be beneficial for him to add blessings to his life. I am afraid that this is not true? ”

Xu Tiangang almost sprayed his tea into the bowl and endured it; Fu Hongbo glanced at him, then looked at his son. He smiled and looked away, thinking to himself, there is still some intelligence behind this, I know that if this were to pave the way for my own wife, my daughter would not have suffered a loss. However, a trace of hesitation flashed on Lady Wang’s face. She smiled and said, “Child, you are full of bullsh * t again.”

Fu Heng had always known about her, and believed in the words of these ghosts and gods the most. He spoke with certainty, “Your son has nothing to do with this, but he asked me if the one serving in my room was the one who woke me up last night.”

Mrs Wang somewhat believed this, but her heart was somewhat happy. This child was also a lucky person.

While they were talking, stable woman carefully carried the child out. Although it was a few days early, his hair and nails were completely whole, and even his flesh wasn’t as dry and red. He had only cried for a bit, and after drinking some water, he calmed down.
