Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 249 Don’t Come and Take My Child

When Daiyu heard Aunt Lan say that the hawthorn cake was not poisonous, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She thought:

They mean well.

Never mind, if you don’t feel comfortable eating it, you can just take it home and not eat it.

The wind was getting stronger at this moment. Daiyu was indeed a little tired yesterday, so she wanted to go back to the room with Jiaorou quickly.

So she took the plate of hawthorn cake with both hands and said with a smile:

"Look at what my sister said, how could it be poisonous!

We are all the prince's women, and we are as close as sisters!

I feel bad for worrying about what I want to eat, sister!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Daiyu went back to her room with Jiaorou, saying she was tired.

Watching Daiyu and the others walk away, Aunt Lan sneered twice and thought to herself: My poor child, she is gone just like that.

You want to give birth smoothly, but it's impossible.

Thinking of this, she snorted and left with her waist twisted.

As soon as Daiyu and Jiaorou entered the room, Daiyu called Xiaoling and said, "There are some tofu skin dumplings in the kitchen. Send them to Aunt Lan!"

Xiaowan brought a hand warmer, and Daiyu and Jiaorou sat on the warm kang in the inner room.

She brought a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks, then gently closed the door and left with the little maids.

As soon as they left, Jiaorou stared at the plate of hawthorn cake in a daze.

Somehow, she always felt that Aunt Lan had bad intentions.

Daiyu saw through her thoughts at a glance. She picked up a piece of peach cake and handed it to Jiaorou, saying with a smile:

"Sister, this is made by the nanny in my kitchen. Do you want to try it and see if it tastes good?"

That’s right, after being out with Daiyu for a while, Jiaorou felt really hungry!

Jiaorou picked up the piece of peach cake and put it in her mouth, then took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Let's not worry about those things for now.

In short, just take good care of your pregnancy and be careful about everything!"

Daiyu looked at her eating so happily and smiled.

After Jiaorou finished eating the peach cake, she said casually, "It's almost winter!"

"Winter Solstice?" Daiyu then remembered that time passed so quickly and it was the Winter Solstice in the blink of an eye!

Jiaorou ate a few snacks and thought about letting Yuer have a good rest this afternoon, so she left, saying that she had something to do in her room.

As soon as Jiaorou left, Daiyu got out of bed quietly, thinking that the prince would be back soon, so she would embroider a purse for him while she had some free time.

So she went to the drawer outside, found the needle and thread and the pattern, and began to embroider.

Unexpectedly, when she took out the silk threads from the drawer, a handkerchief suddenly fell to the ground.

She hurriedly picked it up, and it turned out to be Xiangyun's handkerchief.

She hurriedly picked up the handkerchief and gently stroked the word "Xiang" on it with both hands, as if she saw the lively and cheerful girl Yun.

She murmured softly, "Yun'er, Zijuan, Xueyan, how are you?"

Thinking of this, tears started to fall.

As the saying goes, once you enter a marquis's mansion, it's like entering a deep sea. Although I have become a concubine now, I still have no control over my own life!

She missed the old days so much, the free and easy days in the Grand View Garden!

The last time I said goodbye to them in a hurry, I calculated the date and Xiangyun should have given birth, and I am pregnant now.

She gently stroked her belly, and she felt that the fallen leaves had turned into shade and the branches were full of fruits!

She felt a little tired, so she sat down on the warm kang, squinted her eyes and rested for a while.

"Sister, sister...

Daiyu felt someone calling her from behind, so she turned around hurriedly and found it was Xiangyun.

She hurried forward and said with a smile:

"I was thinking about you, I hope you're going to give birth soon.

Can my baby wear the clothes I made for her?

Daiyu thought that Xiangyun had come before she even went to see her, and now she had to let her stay in the palace for a while longer.

So she thought of holding Xiangyun's hand and walking around the palace with her.

Little did he know that he couldn't touch Xiangyun's hand no matter what he did, and he only saw clouds and mist around her.

Suddenly, Xiangyun's face disappeared, and she whispered, "I'm leaving now, and my sister won't come to see me!"

After Xiangyun finished speaking, she began to cry quietly.

Daiyu saw a knife stuck in her chest, and the person became more and more blurred until she disappeared.

Daiyu immediately burst into tears, crying out, "Yun'er, Yun'er, where are you?"

Suddenly Daiyu woke up with a start, it turned out to be a dream.

I was lying on the warm kang, and when I thought of Xiangyun with a knife stuck in her chest in my dream, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

She hurriedly stroked her chest, telling herself that dreams are the opposite of reality, and that the knife might mean that Xiangyun had a safe delivery.

Thinking of this, she got up and drank a bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine, then changed her clothes and went to find Jiaorou.

……

In Xiangyun’s courtyard, today is a big day, the baby is one month old!

Zijuan and Xueyan found a few elderly people in the village who were both blessed with good fortune and longevity to cut the child's hair. Xiangyun changed into bright red clothes as a celebration for the child.

Zijuan held the child in her arms and said to Xiangyun with a smile, "Miss Yun, look, my boy is so handsome!"

That’s right, the baby who was born prematurely at 8 months old has now become a cute and tender girl.

When Xiangyun saw the child, she felt sad. So much time had passed, and it was as if Mr. Yu had disappeared. He just didn't come back!

Until now, I still don’t have a famous name!

How could Zijuan not know what Xiangyun was thinking? The child was growing up day by day, and the Yu family didn't even show any intention of recognizing him. At least they could give him a name so that he could return to his roots!

Thinking of this, Zijuan winked at Xiangyun and said calmly, "Miss Yun, today is a good day for brother. Let's just follow the rules first."

Xiangyun nodded. She gently picked up the child and placed him on the bed, covered him with a red cloth, and started to cut his hair.

The old ladies who were invited to come over held a scallion in their hands, gently raised it over the child's head, and said with a smile:

“One who takes the lead will become a king.

Two dozen are smart, three dozen are clever..."

After saying that, Zijuan gently pressed the child's head, and Xiangyun held the child's hand.

A woman took a pair of scissors tied with red silk, cut a few locks of hair from the child's head, and put them in a red handkerchief.

That’s it, the ceremony was completed.

Xueyan took the women out. The little maids had already prepared a table of food in the kitchen and asked them to eat first.

Xiangyun picked up the child, thinking that this was the first important thing for the child, but only Zijuan and Xueyan helped her. She felt like she was abandoned by the whole world!

Suddenly, a burst of rapid shouting came from outside.

"Miss Yun, there is red silk tied on the gate today and red ribbons hanging in the yard. What a good day!" Mrs. Jiang came in with small steps and a smile.

Xiangyun remembered that Madam Jiang had clearly said that she would not disturb them anymore, so why did she suddenly come now?

Could it be that she is here to snatch the child away?

Thinking of this, she instinctively asked the wet nurse to take the baby downstairs to feed him, while she covered herself with the quilt on the bed and ignored everyone else.

Zijuan had no choice but to ask Jiang's mother with a smile: "Madam, why are you here?"

Jiang Yuchen's mother's eyes followed the child in the wet nurse's arms and she didn't look at anyone else.

Suddenly hearing Zijuan's question, she whispered, "The baby is almost a month old, right? It's so fast, what a pity..."

After Jiang's mother finished speaking, a few tears flowed down her face. Thinking that her son's whereabouts were unknown and her own grandson could not recognize him, she couldn't help feeling a little lost.

She hurried to Xiangyun's bedside, stood beside her and said emotionally:

“I know you’ve suffered, Yun’er!

But this child has no status with you, how will others view him when he grows up?"

When Zijuan heard this, she thought: Why does Madam Jiang always stab people in the heart?

She was afraid that Xiangyun would be angry, so she hurriedly said to Jiang's mother:

"Madam, please go back. Miss Yun needs to rest!"
