"What's wrong?" Caiyan, the older maid, came over and asked.
She remembered clearly that Hanqiao's menstrual period should not come for about ten days.
The little maid Caiyu raised the trousers in her hand and said, "Sister, look, there is blood on my aunt's trousers. What else could it be if it wasn't sunflower water?"
Just as Caiyan was about to tell her to lower her voice, Hanqiao, who had already collapsed on the couch and was about to fall asleep, suddenly turned over and got up, and asked nervously: "What blood? Where is the blood?"
After the last menstrual period, she took medicine for three days according to Lady Tong's instructions, so she had been pestering Shen Zhonglei for the past few days in order to get pregnant smoothly.
Shen Zhonglei has experienced a total of four women in his life. It goes without saying that Liu Yaxuan is a lady in everyone. Although Xu comes from a small family, she is also very conservative in bed.
Ping Niang was timid and afraid of getting into trouble. She was afraid that Xu would accuse her of being a charming and seductive person, so it was difficult for her to let go.
Now that he met such a proactive and enthusiastic person as Hanqiao, Shen Zhonglei felt as if he had become a young man again.
That's why he forgot about the occasion in the back garden today, and couldn't help but pull Hanqiao to have some intimacy, but unexpectedly, he was bumped into by Mrs. Xu.
Hanqiao was not born into a wealthy family, and the Xu family's original family background could only be described as average. Her life since childhood was a little better than that of farmers outside, and she was by no means a delicate and wealthy person.
Today, she was only punished to kneel for an hour and couldn't hold on anymore. She felt a little strange in her heart. Now that she heard there was blood on her underwear, she immediately became nervous.
Although she just took the medicine prescribed by Mrs. Tong this month, she had already been taking the medicine prescribed by Zhang Muqiu before.
Recently, Mr. Xu made a mistake. Ping Niang was pregnant. Whenever Shen Zhonglei returned to the back house, he spent most of the night in her room.
Could it be possible that I was pregnant before?
The more Hanqiao thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she said with a trembling voice: "Hurry up and ask for the doctor, report to the master, ask for the doctor, ask for Mrs. Tong..."
When Shen Zhonglei heard that Hanqiao was not feeling well and wanted to see a doctor, he thought she was unhappy because she was made to kneel today and was deliberately asking for his attention.
He nodded and said to the housekeeper: "Go and ask the doctor to come and take a look at her!"
Naturally, it was impossible to invite Mrs. Tong, but the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion stepped in and invited Zhang Muqiu to the house.
As soon as Zhang Muqiu entered the room, she saw Hanqiao lying on the bed with a pale face, her face full of panic, as if she was about to cry at any time.
When their eyes met, Zhang Muqiu saw a trace of disappointment flash in her eyes.
"My wife is away for something, I'll come over first to take a look." Zhang Muqiu said, giving Hanqiao a reassuring pill, then taking out the pulse pillow and placing it beside the bed, carefully diagnosing Hanqiao's pulse.
The housekeeper went to invite the doctor to come over. Such a major event could not be hidden in the mansion. Mrs. Shen quickly got the news, and even the Xu family heard about it.
Old Mrs. Shen naturally wanted to inquire about the whole story, and soon learned about what happened in the back garden in the afternoon.
"Let me tell you, the second daughter-in-law handled this matter rightly. There are so many children at home, in the back garden in broad daylight... what does it look like!
"Okay, Chunlan, go and see if she is okay.
"It's okay if she has something to do. If she has nothing to do and is looking for trouble, let her come to my place every day to kneel and recite sutras and cultivate herself."
When Mrs. Xu heard about this, she became even more angry. She slapped the table and said, "She did this on purpose. I just punished her by kneeling for an hour. Is it worth calling a doctor?"
"Not to mention that she is just an aunt now and has not flown onto the branches. She is so pampered and arrogant!
"Huh, there's no need for me to take action this time. The old lady will be disgusted if she finds out!"
I have to say that Mrs. Xu has been Mrs. Shen's daughter-in-law for many years and knows her very well.
But understanding comes with understanding, and things quickly developed in a direction she could not imagine.
Old Mrs. Shen sent Chunlan to have a look, but she was in the room and said to Aunt Jiang: "I think this Hanqiao is really not an honest person. I'm really worried about having such a person next to my second son!"
"
Aunt Jiang disapproved and said: "In my opinion, the old lady is overly worried.
"Hanqiao is just a child from a family. Even if she brings children to the Shen family in the future, she will still be an aunt. How can she still be a wife?
"The second master is usually busy with official duties, so she is not happy to return to the back house. As long as she can make the second master happy, nothing else matters.
"At worst, when she has a child in the future, the old lady will just take the child to raise her, so as not to let her teach the child bad things."
Old Mrs. Shen heard this and was deeply convinced. She nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. Regardless of whether it can make Zhong Lei happy or add children to the Shen family, I have not praised her in vain."
The master and servant were talking when they saw Chunlan coming back quickly from outside.
"How's it going?" Old Mrs. Shen asked casually.
Chunlan's face was not so relaxed, and she said: "Aunt Guo is going back today after being punished by the Second Madam to kneel down. When the little maid was changing her clothes, she found blood on her underwear, but there are still about ten days before Kuishui.
"After Dr. Zhang diagnosed Aunt Guo's pulse, he also said that she did not want to come to Kuishui.
"After asking about the date of menstruation and the date when Aunt Guo had sex with the master, Dr. Zhang said that Aunt Guo might be pregnant."
Mrs. Shen and Grandma Jiang were both confused.
Aunt Jiang opened her mouth to question her daughter: "You child, I asked you to go and see the situation, but you couldn't understand anything!
"If you're pregnant, you're pregnant. If you're not, you're not pregnant. What do you mean you might be pregnant?"
Although Chunlan was broken, she was still unmarried. She was a little embarrassed to talk about this, but fortunately there were no outsiders in the room. She explained in detail: "Doctor Zhang said, I want to see from the pulse
If you are not pregnant, you must be pregnant for at least forty days.
"But according to the medical records and some of the situations she was exposed to on a daily basis, a small amount of bleeding from the lower body suddenly occurred a few days after intercourse, which is most likely a sign of successful pregnancy.
"So according to Aunt Guo's situation, it is recommended to have a good rest and rest, and then check the pulse again after a month to confirm whether she is pregnant."
When Mrs. Shen heard this, she was extremely excited, but she still managed to hold on to some sense and asked: "Who is this Doctor Zhang? What is his ability?"
"Dr. Zhang Muqiuzhang is a female doctor who works at Tong Niangzi Medical Center. She studied under Princess Gaoyang. She was already a well-known female doctor in Yingtian Mansion a few years ago. She was just invited to Yongzhou by Tong Niangzi this year.
Come to the government."
As soon as she heard that Zhang Muqiu had studied under the Jiang family, Mrs. Shen's last doubt disappeared. She hurriedly stood up and said, "Hurry up and keep Doctor Zhang. I'll be there right away."
