Chapter 248: Kua Kua Tuan Niuniu

After all the doctors left, no matter how long it took, Mrs. Qian fell asleep thinking about Zhang Yunniang's words to ask her to rest more during her confinement.

Mrs. Qian had a dream.

There was no Zhang Yunniang and Niuniu in the dream. Mrs. Li only came for a bath at three o'clock. She continued to eat the "tonifying soup" without realizing it, and suddenly suffered a hemorrhage before she was out of confinement.

When her daughter was two or three months old, she died due to a high fever that was not treated in time.

A year after her death, her husband remarried Liu Ruyi. The couple was loving and harmonious, and they soon left her old person behind.

Mrs. Qian woke up from the nightmare. It was clear day, but she was so frightened that she was sweating profusely.

When she thought about the death of her mother and daughter in the dream, she was filled with resentment.

"Madam, please eat something. Your health is important. Even if you can't eat, you have to eat. Madam Gu said that you should take care of yourself. Please think more about Miss..." the maid advised softly.

Mrs. Qian lost her appetite due to nightmares, but she heard the cry of a child and the sound of a wet nurse humming a ballad to coax the child.

Mrs. Qian slowly came back to her senses. Looking at the maid beside her, after a long time, she finally made a decision: "Tomorrow, go to Ren Yazi in person to buy a girl. She needs to be honest and pretty, and don't choose the kind that hides adultery. Forget it. Come on, buy a few more, pick at least two.”

Mrs. Qian received too many shocks today, and her whole body felt like a basin of cold water had been poured on her, from head to toe.

Although people around her told her that her husband respected and loved her very much, in the dream her husband seemed to be no different, and he even kept her filial piety for a year.

But Mrs. Qian didn't dare to gamble.

She was born into a wealthy businessman's family. She used to be loved by her husband because of her rich dowry, but after her husband became a Jinshi and became an official, even her father had to be careful when talking to her husband.

She knew better than anyone else that her husband longed for a son, and it was better to give him a concubine now than to divorce him in the future.

Mr. Qian came back in the evening. He first went to the old lady's house in the backyard, had dinner, and then came to the main room.

Because Mrs. Qian kept the secret a secret and her servants were all in the inner house, Liu Ruyi didn't know that she had been exposed. Instead, she encouraged the old lady to accuse Mrs. Qian of wasting money by calling a bunch of doctors in front of Mr. Qian.

"What's wrong with Madam today?" Master Qian asked Madam Qian about asking a doctor.

Mrs. Qian immediately revealed today's thunder.

Mr. Qian just made a routine inquiry and was completely unprepared to accept this big thunder.

"I won't let my cousin cook soup and medicine for you in the future. She may not know what's going on and is confused..." Mr. Qian's first reaction was to reconcile. After all, Mrs. Qian is not dead now, and the old lady has always loved Liu Ruyi.

Although Mrs. Qian had been mentally prepared, she still felt a chill down her spine.

She followed Li's instructions to get his official voice.

Master Qian did not hesitate for a moment and changed his words on the spot: "You are right, such a vicious woman must not stay with her mother. Tomorrow I will find someone to send her back to her hometown and hand her over to the Liu family to deal with her."

The Liu family had devoured Liu Ruyi's property and were originally a group of jackals and tigers. If she went back now, it would be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth, and her end could be imagined.

Mrs. Qian suddenly figured it out.

Neither he nor Liu Ruyi, nor even his mother-in-law in the backyard, might be as important as his official career in the eyes of her husband.

When Mrs. Qian thought of this, she suddenly felt that what she was going to say didn't seem so uncomfortable. "I am in poor health now and want to take two concubines for my husband. What does your husband think?"

Mr. Qian was stunned when he heard this, and after a moment he said: "Madam only has the final say in matters concerning the back house."

Although Mrs. Qian had expected this kind of reaction from him, she still felt cold. She told herself in her heart that in the future she would only use her husband as a tool to seek glory and wealth for her daughter, and she should no longer be sincere.

After Zhang Yunniang and her group left Qian Mansion, they boarded the carriage.

Niu Niu saw that both mothers looked unhappy and asked in confusion: "Why are you unhappy?"

Zhang Yunniang didn't know what to say for a moment. It was hard to tell Niuniu directly about the secrets of those in the house.

Niu Niu held up a set of small animal-shaped jade ornaments in her hand and said, "Mom, Aunt Qian is so kind, she gave this to me!"

Mrs. Qian saw that Niu Niu had been playing with the ornament and thought she liked it, so she gave it to Niu Niu directly.

Not only this set of ornaments, she also gave many gifts to thank Zhang Yunniang for her life-saving grace.

Zhang Yunniang still felt uneasy and asked Li: "Did I say the wrong thing before? Although I saved Mrs. Qian, will it hinder you?"

Li shook her head and said: "Don't worry, she is not that kind of person. There are so many secrets in the inner house. Even if it gets spread, it will only be a few gossips. Mrs. Qian knows the importance of it."

"Besides, if I really want to talk about dragging you down, it's me who is dragging you down. I originally thought that it would not only solve Mrs. Qian's urgent need, but also allow you to show off your talents, but I didn't expect that the first time I made a move, I would be involved in the internal affairs of the inner house. among."

Although Li didn't say it clearly, Zhang Yunniang understood clearly. Li did this because she wanted Zhang Yunniang to get more thank-you gifts.

This time she went to Mrs. Qian's house. Not counting the jade ornaments in Niu Niu's hands, the other gifts were worth two to three hundred taels of silver.

She just spent a whole morning and said a few words there and gained so much, which shows how easy it is for these ladies to make money.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuniang couldn't help but sigh and said: "I used to think that a woman living in a big house with a bunch of maids and slaves waiting for her would have no worries. Now that I think about it, family harmony seems to be more valuable than more money. All are important.”

Li nodded deeply.

Niu Niu raised her little face and said, "So what mom did today was to help Aunt Qian's family be harmonious. You guys are so awesome!"

Zhang Yunniang also didn’t expect that her daughter in the Kua Kua Tuan would find cunning reasons to praise herself, so she quickly explained: “Good boy, my mother didn’t help your Aunt Qian today to bring peace to the family. What I did today was to help your Aunt Qian. Take good care of yourself.”

Zhang Yunniang thought that she might as well stop doing this kind of thing in the future.

"No?" Niu Niu was puzzled.

Zhang Yunniang was about to nod.

Li said, "Yes, you did help her like this."

Zhang Yunniang's face was full of doubts.

Ms. Li continued: "I know you are determined to quit because of today's incident, but if you think about it carefully, Mrs. Qian has thought clearly and has a clear head. She will naturally know how to deal with family affairs in the future. Isn't it about family harmony? She is at home. The situation has also become better!”

"Not to mention, you actually saved the lives of Mrs. Qian and her daughter."

Niu Niu immediately followed Mrs. Li and said loudly: "Mom saved two lives, she is a great hero!"
