Xu Siyu took a long breath.

At least Qiu Luo's death has nothing to do with Aunt Qin

At the beginning of the year, Qiu Luo gave birth to a baby boy. Aunt Qin murmured, the little maid came to report that the second lady wanted to see the child. I also wanted to go. As usual, I followed the second lady.

The lady didn't say anything when she saw her, so I followed the second lady to her place.

Sure enough, as Po Wen said, the lady was holding the child at the banquet place in the west corner. The wife, the three masters, the fifth master and the third wife, as well as the serving maids and women, were all present except for Tao's mother.

Seeing us entering, the lady looked very happy and carried the child over to show the second lady. I took the opportunity to stand on tiptoes and take a look - the child was thin and small, and looked like he weighed only three or four pounds. I was disappointed.

Lying in the lady's arms, I felt as weak as an eggplant beaten by frost.`

The second lady glanced at her gently and said a few words that the child was very delicate. Then a little maid ran in and said that Qiu Luo was bleeding after childbirth. Mother Tao, who was taking care of Qiu Luo in the delivery room, asked her to hurry up.

Find a doctor to take a look at Qiu Luo.

Although he already knew the outcome, Xu Siyu still pricked up his ears after hearing what happened back then.

Everyone was surprised. Aunt Qin said, the third lady even uttered an exclamation, saying that she was fine just now, but she suddenly stopped bleeding. After hearing this, everyone in the room looked towards the madam. Only the second lady looked at me,

He lowered his head and drank tea.

The Second Madam has always been very powerful. I don’t know why she wanted to look at me. I was very scared and I had no other intention. I just wanted to see how Mrs. Qiu Luo was only a seven or eight-year-old girl when she got married.

She was born in a very beautiful place and is even more beautiful than Jasper. Now she has been promoted by the wife. After giving birth to a son, she will most likely support the aunt. If she gives birth to a boy and a half girl, I dare not look at the second lady. I'm so humble.

He bowed his head and stood there silently holding his breath. Then he heard his wife ordering someone to call for the doctor, and also told the wife to go to the delivery room to have a look.

The wife stood up after hearing this. She said to the wife, since you are busy, everyone should leave and wait for two days to attend the child's baptism. Then she said to the two of them that she always felt a little pain in her back.

The second lady helped me beat it, and I felt much better. This time, I asked the second lady to help me beat it again. When the third lady heard this, she immediately stepped forward to help the madam, and asked the madam where it hurt and if it didn't matter. She had a nanmu there.

The beauty hammer inlaid with white jade was a dowry from her mother's family, and she was said to have a particularly good attitude towards the elderly and was very attentive. The fifth master also stepped forward and pulled the sleeve of his wife to ask for a while, then he put aside Qiu Luo's matter and embraced her.

The madam went out.

The second lady asked Yuxiang to take me back to the house. She also asked me to help polish the remaining ink.

The fifth master curiously asked the second lady what she was doing grinding ink at this time.

The second lady said that she wanted to add pomegranate flower juice to the ink to see if the color of the ink could be more beautiful.

The fifth master shouted that if the ink was finished, he would have to give him two yuan.

They chatted and laughed and went to the madam's house. No one looked at me again and I followed Yuxi back to the house.

Yuxiang brought me a brocade spoon, and I sat in front of the desk to grind ink. It was very late, after midnight, when the second lady came back. Seeing that I was still grinding ink, she nodded and Yuixiang served.

Then I went to the clean room to freshen up.

I have been grinding ink for several days, and my upper eyelids and lower eyelids have been fighting for a long time. The second lady is like this, and I don’t know what to do if I continue to grind. My hands are sore, swollen, and painful, so I don’t want to continue grinding.

I was afraid that the second lady would be angry. After thinking for a long time, I boldly put the ink stick down and quietly went to the clean room.

The second lady was talking to Yuxiang. When she heard the commotion, she immediately stopped talking and looked towards me. The second lady's face was very ugly. Seeing that it was me standing at the door, the second lady calmed down and asked me.

I said something stammeringly. The second lady asked Yuxiang to rest with me, and just ask a little girl to help her wash up.

Yuxiang hesitated for a moment, then went back to the house with me to rest for a while. After saying this, Aunt Su showed a look of pride on her eyebrows. In fact, I heard the second lady talking to Yuxiang.

Ever since I stepped into this room, it was like opening a door that had been sealed with dust for ten years. Not only were there thick cobwebs, but also unknown birds were rushing towards me.

Now, the second aunt is involved again

Xu Siyu's hands clenched into fists: Second Aunt, what did Yue Xiang say?

There was only one sentence. The look of pride on Aunt Qin's eyebrows became stronger. The second lady said that rhubarb was found in the chicken soup that Tao's mother served Qiu Luo just now. As she said this, she laughed, do you know what rhubarb is?

Xu Siyu didn't know.

But he knew that the second aunt knew something about pharmacology. If the second aunt felt that something was inappropriate, then there must be something wrong.

He shook his head gently.

Aunt Qin couldn't see it, but she and Xu Siyu thought together: I don't know what rhubarb is. But when I saw the second lady's face was so ugly, I knew it was not a good thing. I was lying on the bed, unable to sleep, and I was not afraid of turning over.

, for fear of alarming Yuuka beside her, thinking about the chicken soup with rhubarb, thinking about Qiu Luo who had postpartum hemorrhage, and the child who was smaller than the average baby, watching the sky gradually turn white, thinking, why hasn't it happened yet?

Just when I was feeling uneasy, a little maid came over and said that Qiu Luo died of hemorrhage after childbirth. She said with a smile, and within a few days, the child also died due to physical weakness.

Xu Siyu's face was expressionless.

His biological mother, Aunt Qin, who was frightened when he met the father of the concubine, was able to add insult to injury when Aunt Tong was killed. Why couldn't his proud and arrogant aunt become cruel and ruthless?

Now, nothing can surprise him.

Xu Siyu heard himself say in a calm and dull voice: In order to let the child only care about nurturing kindness and not giving birth to kindness, Tao's mother gave Qiu Luo chicken soup with rhubarb. As a result, the adult died, and the child also died because of it.

Too weak to survive

Aunt Qin nodded: Second Young Master, tell me, is this God's will? She fumbled and pulled Xu Siyu's arm. I am from a humble background and have an ordinary appearance. Just because of my duty, I was transferred to the Marquis's house by the wife. It was a coincidence.

I was accused of being married to the Marquis. It stands to reason that when the Marquis marries his legitimate wife and gives birth to his legitimate son, and I am getting older and have no heirs, I will most likely be released to marry anyone I want. But I have never

Thinking about it, first the wife had a miscarriage when the second master passed away without an heir, and then the old master was critically ill. I was stopped from taking the medicine. She paused slightly in her tone, skipped over some things in between, and said, I'm afraid

The son I gave birth to was not the eldest son, so what happened to Aunt Tong; I was afraid that my wife would promote Qiu's son to suppress you, and the child would die young. I was afraid that the Taoist priest of Changchun asked for a son for his wife, and Brother Zhun would be born with it.

She suffered from a disease of insufficient food, and it was hard to say whether she could feed her enough to live on. Moreover, the bones in my wife’s body were emptied out. I just wanted to bury the things that Zhu Daopo gave me that day in the place where Brother Chen must pass by every day as Zhu Daopo said.

I was there, who would have thought that as soon as I got up after burying things, I met Brother Chen and a little maid walking outside privately. I was so frightened that I hid behind a big tree nearby. I was worried that they would see me, but who knew that they themselves would be frightened first?

We hugged each other, but I was shocked. You said, this is not God’s will.

What are you talking about? Xu Siyu's expression changed drastically. Countless thoughts jumped out of his mind. He grabbed Aunt Qin's arm with his backhand. What did you bury, Zhu Daopo? And Xu Siyu, what does his illness have to do with you?

relation

His words were so aggressive that Aunt Qin was so frightened that she froze. After a while, she screamed and struggled to throw away the arm held by Xu Siyu.

Lian Jiao, who was hiding behind the curtain, saw this and was about to rush out, but was caught by Xiao Luzi.

No, please don't. His voice was weak and his head was covered with sweat, as if he had some serious illness.

Lian Jiao opened her mouth to ask him what was wrong, but Xiao Luzi covered her mouth and whispered: Don't say anything, don't say anything. We have to find a way to get out.

Xu Siyu was shocked at first. He didn't expect Aunt Qin to have such a big reaction to his words. He was also afraid that someone would come in and hear something he shouldn't have heard. Later, he saw that there was no movement in the room, and he knew that the servants had already obeyed.

After he was told to avoid it, he breathed a sigh of relief. He comforted Aunt Qin with gentle words for a long time, and finally got Aunt Qin to calm down.

But what Aunt Qin just said was deeply imprinted in his heart.

It made his heart beat up and down, and he couldn't help himself.

Is this the incident that my father was referring to?

Thinking of this, his thin lips pursed tightly.

A gentleman has something to do and something not to do.

It is better to understand than to avoid.

At least, you can take the initiative when talking to your father.

Thinking of this, Xu Siyu couldn't help asking Aunt Qin softly: Zhu Daopo, what did you give me?

Aunt Qin looked wary after hearing this and immediately said: No, you didn't give me anything.

What is it that makes my aunt so cautious?

Xu Siyu was even more suspicious, knowing that he would not get any answers if he forced himself to ask. After thinking about it, he changed the topic: So, Xu Siyu is scared by you.

Keep your voice down. Aunt Qin turned her cloudy eyes and whispered, "Don't tell anyone about this."

Xu Siyu nodded: I won’t tell others

Aunt Qin thought for a moment and waved to Xu Siyu: Come here, I'll tell you

Xu Jieyu came over.

Aunt Qin whispered: I scared brother Chen to death. Mr. Hou was furious. Madam was not pregnant, the fetal position was not settled, and she had a miscarriage. She said with a cheerful smile, Second Young Master, now you

He is the only son of the Marquis again, the eldest son of the Yongping Marquis Mansion, and the future Yongping Marquis.

Xu Siyu looked at Aunt Qin in disbelief and was speechless.

It's a bit late to add the update. Let's watch it when you get up tomorrow morning.
