It was slightly light.
Aunt Tao's courtyard was a mess, the maids kept bringing hot water in and then coming out with pots of blood red water.
In the room came Aunt Tao's mournful cries of pain, the stable woman taught her how to push, but she just couldn't give birth ...
Yun Chou stood in the courtyard with a somewhat sunken expression.
After the last time when He counted on Aunt Tao, she still thought that the child in Aunt Tao's belly had a great life and could be carried until it was born without any problems.
Unexpectedly, the second reckoning came so quickly, and it was the same day, and also the dawn, when the fourth young master of the Xie family was born in his previous life.
Even if the situation is very different today than it was in my last life, must what is supposed to happen happen?
She suppressed her mind and looked at He who was standing in front of her with her head bowed, and Xie Shiyun who was being held by He, and said in a cold voice, "Aunt He, what's going on here, tell us clearly!"
"Back to ma'am's words, Yun Ge'er has been sick for the past few days, has not been able to sleep well, concubine took him to sleep together, who knows, he chenqi quarter of that will suddenly make a fuss, had to go to find Aunt Yu." He lowered his head and said, "It's not even dawn, concubine where to rest assured that he is a child to go out alone, coaxed to let him sleep a little more, who knows that he bit my concubine ..."
She said, revealing a tooth mark on her arm to Yun Chu and continued, ''He bit my concubine and ran out, my concubine has been following him, probably because the day was not bright, Yun Ge'er couldn't tell which way to go, and even ran to Aunt Tao's courtyard. At that time the underlings were turning in for their shifts, and there was no one at the entrance to the courtyard, so Yun Ge'er rushed headlong inside, and when the concubine followed him in, she saw Aunt Tao fall to the ground from the steps of the house, and Yun Ge'er stood there like a scared fool ..."
"Madam, it's all my fault, it's because I didn't take care of Yun Ge'er, causing Aunt Tao to go into premature labor!"
He had a self-condemning look on his face.
At this time, Xie Jingyu and Listening Rain also arrived.
Listening Rain rushed to Xie Shiyun's side in an arrow step, squatting down and wrapping her arms around her son, "Brother Yun, you quickly tell the Lady Lord that you didn't push Aunt Tao, quickly say it."
Xie Shiyun stood frozen in place, unable to say a single word.
"Since you don't speak, I can only assume it's you." Xie Jingyu's brows were very heavy, "Only three years old and you dare to do something like this?"
Listening to the rain hurriedly blocked in front of Xie Shiyun: "Lord, Yun'er has always been timid, when my concubine brought Yun'er, he didn't even dare to step on an ant to death, how did he become like this when he arrived at Aunt He's yard, my concubine doesn't believe that Yun'er would do something like this, I still request that your lordship investigate properly and return Yun'er's innocence!"
Xie Jingyu was about to speak.
Just then, I saw the voice of the steady woman coming from the house, "It's born, it's born, it's born, it's a brother!"
Xie Jingyu's heart was relieved, then he frowned, "How come I didn't hear the child's cries?"
He seemed to appear in front of his eyes when Yun Chu gave birth, also premature labor, also pots of blood and water served out, also the child was born without crying ...
Yun Chou didn't have much emotion on her face.
Sure enough, exactly like in my last life, in no time at all, there was the sound of a child's cry, only it was a little weak.
"Amitabha Buddha, it's good that the child is fine!" The old lady and Yuan also rushed over, the two of them had joy on their faces, "It's a brother, our Xie family has added another child, wonderful."
Yunchu shook her head.
This child was born weak, and by the age of half a year he could not raise his head, and at two or three years old he could not speak, and was dull, and was finally disliked by the old lady as much as ...
The old lady was happy for a while, she looked down and saw Xie Shiyun standing there, she was furious: "Jingyu, Yun brother's guts are too big, if not for Aunt Tao's robustness, it would have been one body and two lives, tell me, what should be done about this?"
Xie Jingyu pinched his fingers and looked at Yunchu, "Madam, what do you say?"
Yun Chu spoke in a faint voice, "Why don't we wait for Aunt Tao to get her breath back, and I'll ask Aunt Tao what's going on first?"
At that moment, the steady woman came out with the child in her arms, a white, clean brother, the child nestled in the wrapped blanket with his eyes closed.
Xie Jingyu took one look and retracted his gaze, but Yuan lovingly held it in her arms for a while before handing it over to the milkmaid.
Yun Chu didn't hold the child and stepped into the labor room to check on Aunt Tao's condition.
"Aunt Yu, ask Yun Ge'er properly what's going on!" Xie Jingyu said in a cold voice, "Aunt He, follow me!"
He pursed her lips, bowed her head and followed Xie Jingyu to a side compartment.
Once inside, Xie Jingyu's face sank, "He Lingying, say, is it you?"
He heard his real name and had a momentary trance when they met and fell in love, as if they were so far away in a previous life.
"Yulang, I didn't." She spoke periodically, "Ange is already big and accomplished, I don't have to do this ..."
"If it's not you, who else could it be!" Xie Jingyu's eyes erupted with fire, "A month ago you failed in your plan, so you came up with another plan, and this time you even utilized a child of Yun'er's. If I didn't know you well enough, I really wouldn't have thought of you! If I didn't know you well enough, I really wouldn't have thought of you, this plan of yours, you want to kill the unborn child, and you also want me to send Yun Ge'er away in a fit of rage, then no one in the Xie mansion will be able to threaten An Ge'er's position, isn't that right?"
He almost believed He's words and thought that Yun Ge'er really pushed Aunt Tao.
But on second thought, Yun is only three years old and still sick, early in the morning when it's not even light, a child no matter how unintelligent would not run around at this time.
It must have been He who said something to Yun Gao Er.
"I really didn't expect that you would have such tactics!" Xie Jingyu narrowed her eyes, "Four years ago when Yunchu fell and went into premature labor, was it also your handiwork! I really misjudged you!"
Back then, after Yunchu got pregnant, he took He to the Xie family and became a housekeeping mom in his yard.
When Yunchu's child died early and lost his fertility, he took advantage of the situation and took back the three children outside together.
I only thought it was going too well, but now I think back on it, it was going a little too well, and it was a little too scary.
Although he loathed the two children in Yunchu's stomach that were not of the Xie family's bloodline, he never thought of counting on the children's early birth and early death ...
He saw He's face change as if a thunderbolt had struck his head.
He can never tell He's those two children are not his seed, He's how to dare to a house mother to do it ...
Can make a move on Yunchu, one after another on Aunt Tao seems to be acceptable ...
"My lord, what are you doing looking at me with such eyes, you think I'm vicious, don't you?" He laughed, "You think too highly of me, with so many loyal maids around madam, where would I stand a chance, on the contrary, it's you, four years ago, you threw away the two children that were born with breath directly, how are you better than me?"
Xie Jingyu's heart gave a hard beat.
"A child that hasn't been born yet doesn't count as a life, I'm no more, I didn't harm anyone's life." He word by word, "those two children can still have the blood of the Xie family ah, you just threw it into the ice and snow ... I know that you do this, in order to let the lady wholeheartedly teach Ange'er them, I know that you are for the sake of Ange'er good, so this secret I have been hidden in my heart, even if the lady tortured me to force me to confess, I have not spilled a word ..."
