Chapter 102 Concubine Mei Gives Birth

Chapter 102 Concubine Mei Gives Birth

Keep the courtyard

When Ji Yunqing heard that Concubine Jian had given birth to a daughter, she was as disappointed as the princess.

At this moment, she really wanted to scold King Zhao. He acted like a bastard on weekdays, why did he fail at the critical moment?

You can't even give birth to a big fat boy, you're such a waste!

Now she only hoped that King Zhao would be kind to her and give birth to a daughter so that they could live happily together in the future.

However, if a daughter is born, according to the current social situation, her life will not be as free and easy as that of a boy.

Ji Yunqing hesitated again. After thinking about it, he decided that it would be best to have a son.

After thinking for a long time, Ji Yunqing realized that what she thought was useless. No matter what happened in the future, what she said would not count.

In this uneasy environment, Concubine Mei gave birth.

Some time ago, it was discovered that Concubine Mei had assaulted Concubine Zhu, causing the loss of one of the prince's children. Later, she pushed down Concubine Li and Concubine Lou in public, causing the two concubines' fetuses to almost die.

She should have been sent to the farm, but considering that Concubine Mei was pregnant with a child, she had to be confined to the courtyard for the time being.

This yard was not too far from Ji Yunqing's yard, so on the day of delivery, there was quite a lot of noise and it was easy to find out the result.

Concubine Mei gave birth to a big fat boy, weighing 8.6 jin, with very strong arms and legs.

This was the result that Hong Xing and Hong Dou found out after they went out together to inquire.

"Master," Hong Xing said crisply, "Concubine Mei's yard is not far from here. Do you want to go and see the child? I heard that the child is very strong."

Hongdou also advised: "Master, I heard from Hongxing that if a pregnant woman hugs a boy, it is easier to give birth to a boy. Why don't we give it a try?"

Ji Yunqing tapped the foreheads of the two maids with his index finger and said with amusement, "What nonsense are you two talking about?

Could it be that I was carrying a girl in my belly, and once I held the boy, it became a boy? Then is this child the prince's or the boy's?"

"It must be considered as the prince's!"

Hong Xing said without any hesitation.

"Then there's no need to look at him, let alone hold him. We can just hope that the prince can do well on his own." Ji Yunqing made the final decision.

Hong Xing: “…”

Well, what she said just now was in vain.

However, when Xuancao heard this, she also remembered what she had heard before: "Master, it is said that boy's urine is good for the body. How about we go and see the child? It can also bring good luck?"

"This is even more nonsense."

Ji Yunqing held his forehead with his hand, really impressed by these girls, so he simply waved his hand and gave them a holiday.

"You guys can go and see it if you want. Go and see it now before the child is sent away. It will bring you good luck."

"If the master doesn't go, then the servant won't go either."

Xuancao said with a smile, and her reason was very good: "When the young master comes out, this servant will hold the young master in her arms, and she can hold him as long as she wants."

Nanny An agreed with this statement very much: "Well said, when the time comes, you girls, take good care of the young master, it will not hurt."

As she spoke, her eyes were fixed sharply on the maids.

The young master will be out soon, so these maids had better behave themselves, otherwise there will be big trouble.

Ji Yunqing thought about it and suddenly changed his tone: "Forget it, let's go and see the child together. Maybe it won't be easy to see him in the future."

It was indeed not easy to see the child being taken away later.

Ji Yunqing wondered who the prince would give the child to.

I think it should be the princess.

This is a big fat boy, will the princess let him go easily?

If the princess really adopted the child, Ji Yunqing would be completely relieved.

Thinking of this, Ji Yunqing decided to go and see what the situation was.

I don’t know what happened these days, but the girls in the yard praise the good things outside every day.

She was so upset that she wanted to go out for a walk.

Just as he was thinking about it, Ji Yunqing paused as he was about to step out of the courtyard.

It seemed like... the ones who were always in her ears, urging her to go out were Hong Xing and Hong Dou, and Hemerocallis would occasionally join in to persuade her.

As for Hydrangea, she is now busy making small quilts every day and is so busy that she rarely leaves the house.

Ji Yunqing curled the corners of her lips. She wanted to see what these two girls were planning.

Seeing that her master was finally going out, Hong Xing felt happy.

Seeing her stop, Hong Xing asked in confusion, "Master, what's wrong?"

Ji Yunqing's white hands were placed on the old door frame, and the dimples on his hands were clearly visible in the sunlight.

She hesitated and looked at Hong Xing: "I've thought about it and decided not to go. You guys can take a look for me, which is considered as your best effort."

I finally persuaded him to come out, how can he not go?

Hong Xing couldn't help but get anxious. She glanced to the side, then quickly retracted her gaze and asked in confusion, "Master, didn't we agree on this? Why aren't you going again?"

Ji Yunqing said confidently: "Are you stupid? You guys can go and take a look. If I go, shouldn't I give a gift? It would be so embarrassing if I don't give one!"

No matter what, he is the prince's biological son. Ji Yunqing can choose not to go, but he cannot treat the child badly in public.

It's just a greeting gift. The prince has given the master many rewards. Wouldn't any one of them be enough for the child?

Hong Xing: “…”

Hong Xing advised earnestly: "Master, it's just a gift, you can take any one you like, I believe Mei concubine will not be picky."

If she doesn't choose, then I will!

Ji Yunqing doesn't want to be a scapegoat.

Not only do you have to take the initiative to go out and calculate for those with ulterior motives, but you also have to pay for the subsidies out of your own pocket. How can such a good thing happen?

She shook her head helplessly: "Forget it, those things of mine were carefully selected by the prince, suitable for women, not for children, so it's best not to go."

Xuancao saw something and took the initiative to say, "Master, why don't we go back? The young master is in the palace anyway, so there will always be a chance to see him."

Ji Yunqing agreed with this statement, isn't it?

Now that she has given a meeting gift, when everyone has given theirs, will she say that she has already given one and won’t give one this time?

And then let everyone secretly blame her for being stingy?

She has always been thin-skinned and can't stand this stimulation.

"What Hemerocallis said makes sense. I'll listen to you. Let's go back and take a rest. Oh, we're really tired after walking such a long way."

Ji Yunqing said this while rubbing his legs gently, but unfortunately his arms were not that long, so he could only rub his stomach.

Seeing this, Xuancao stepped forward and supported her with concern: "Master, why didn't you tell me earlier that you were tired? It must be very uncomfortable to endure it. Let's go back quickly and let me rub your legs."

Ji Yunqing praised with satisfaction: "What a good girl, you have worked hard, I will double your salary this month!"

"Thank you, Master."

As the master and servant were talking, they were about to walk back under everyone's eyes.

They said they were walking back, which meant that in the blink of an eye, they were already inside the yard!

Hong Xing stared at all this in a daze, her heart broken.
