Chapter 800: Chapter 800-Deadly
When Xiao Baoxin was diagnosed with pregnancy, the entire Xie family was in an uproar. If it weren’t for the extraordinary period, Jiankang City would have launched a vigorous thankyou operation. Perhaps the banner would have been hung out to announce it to the world.
It was so lively that it was impossible to return. When Lady Xie saw Madam Yuan’s usually cold face, she smiled like a flower.
He was really satisfied with his wife.
However, Xiao Baoxin’s expression was indescribable and did not show any joy. The sour water in Xie Eldest Lady’s heart almost returned to her mouth.
You’re pregnant with three children in three years and have given birth to two fat boys. What else do you want?
If he wanted her, his little tongue would fall out of his mouth.
Eldest Lady Xie knew that she had given birth to three daughters, but it was a pity that she had not given Xu Erlang a legitimate son. It was almost becoming a worry in her heart. She could still see clearly that no matter how sour she was, she would not be able to get it into her stomach.
He personally went to Rong An Hall. Other than congratulating her, he also indirectly asked about her family’s Xu Erlang’s official position.
Lady Xie had been raised by the Wang family, so her brain was much stronger than Xie Shan’s. She was also the most typical noblewoman who was superior to others.
The problem was Xiao Baoxin…
She understood that you should stop when you fight with her, and stop when you speak. Forgive her for being stupid, but she really didn’t understand.
Lady Xie was also self-reliant on her status as a noble daughter. The two of them did not meet much, and their feelings were not that close. They did not have any intimate actions. They wished they could sit three feet away from each other, so Xiao Baoxin could not find any clues from Lady Xie’s inner thoughts.
In addition, she was pregnant. It might be a rare happy occasion for others, but it was no different from another blow to her.
Her body had just recovered to its peak. Her body was well-proportioned, healthy, and beautiful. She had even grown a little taller.
In the end, God told her that there was another one.
Did he think she was an old cow who farmed the land and served the people
diligently all her life?
She still wanted to have some fun. She still wanted to go on a boat with Xie
Xian, ride horses, climb mountains, and cross rivers!
The blow was not light. She was impatient and her eyes were floating. It was fine if Lady Xie did not continue the conversation. She was even lazy to be perfunctory. It was obvious that she did not take her seriously. In a fit of anger, she left.
In fact, it wasn’t that Xiao Baoxin didn’t want to talk to her or that he was deliberately making things difficult for her.
She had done everything according to Xie Xian’s instructions. No matter what
he said, she would agree to it. He would be there next.
Who knew that Lady Xie would be so anxious? After leaving for less than two days, she came back to urge him. Even if Xie Xian wanted to agree to Xu Erlang’s request, there should be a suitable time for the Ministry of Official Personnel to find a vacancy or to mention it to the Emperor, right?
What did he want her to reply to?
With Lady Xie’s brain, she could think of more than 18,000 kinds of evidence that she was full of malice.
“Just because of this?” Xie Xian smiled. Actually, he had a good relationship with Lady Xie.
One was that before Eldest Lady Xie got married, Xie Shi Zhong was at the height of his power, and the relationship between the eldest branch and the second and third branches was still very good. Secondly, Lady Xie was four years older than him. She had cared about him the most since he was young. She would give him anything good and would always remember to keep it for him when she got something good.
Even after the death of Xie Shi Zhong and the decline of the eldest branch, Eldest Lady Xie did not forget about him. From time to time, she would send some tonics over from the Xu Manor.
Later on, he followed his husband to perform divinations and left Jiankang City. Every year, when he sent things home, his share was always the most precious and attentive among the younger generation.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of Big Sister.” “It’s just that Xu Erlang looks honest on the surface, but he’s very shrewd on the inside.” It was the same for him to look for me, but he didn’t. He insisted that Eldest Sister return to the residence time and time again.”
“Firstly, she doesn’t want to get too involved with me at the moment. Secondly, she wants to take advantage of Big Sister.”
The rise and fall of the Xu Manor were all in his heart.
At the very least, Emperor Yu Heng had wanted to support the Xu family back then, pulling the Xu family along to fight against the deposed Crown Prince. Later on, with the appearance of Xu Sixth Lady and Xiao Baoshu, the Xu and Xiao families were also tied together.
However, the death of the Eldest Princess of Kuaiji had caused the male servants of the Xu family to be in mourning and unable to do anything in the court.
Emperor Yong Ping did not have many people he could use. Even if he did, he would not fully trust them. He could only cast a net and focus on fishing.
He would first promote the person and see if he was useful before making the final decision.
He didn’t know if the Xu Family’s Minister Xu was too anxious or if Xu Erlang was acting on his own accord. At least in Xie Xian’s opinion, he was too hasty. Xiao Baoxin didn’t understand the twists and turns inside. Anyway, whether it was the Xie family or the government affairs in the court, whatever Xie Xian said was true. She had no doubts about it.
“Then you’d better tell Eldest Sister properly. When I saw her leave… You don’t look too good.”
Xie Xian:” Big Sister’s complexion is visibly ugly. It seems like we should have a good chat.””
He could not help but laugh. At least in his impression, his elder sister was dignified and self-reliant, and she had some skills of not showing her emotions on her face. Only Xiao Baoxin could make Big Sister lose her composure.
He wanted to laugh.
“But that’s not what I’m worried about,”
Xiao Bao was very confident. The matter of the eldest sister of the Xie family really had no effect on her. It was not like her and Xie Wan. It was not a sister- in-law relationship. They were really congenial and could get along well.
If it was Xie Wan’s fault, she wouldn’t have called him so easily. She would have called him wherever Xie Xian pointed.
Even if he chased after her, he had to make things perfect.
She and Lady Xie did not have such a friendship.
Moreover, she didn’t like Eldest Lady Xie’s aloof and stiff expression.
Also, he didn’t know how to talk things out properly, but he had to beat around the bush and insinuate.
If she knew so many skills and was so weak, she could beat him away with her words. Wasn’t it because he couldn’t stand the pressure from others that he developed that bad habit?
When Xiao Baoxin said this, Xie Xian was obviously nervous as well. His eyebrows immediately furrowed.”What is Nora worried about?” Xiao Baoxin really didn’t want to say it. He liked to make a fuss over nothing. He didn’t get sick from being pregnant twice. It was all thanks to the blessings of the Xie family’s ancestors. He didn’t know how many times Madam Yuan burned incense and prayed for him every day.
She was almost becoming a laughing stock for Xie Wan.
However, even if she did not say anything about this, Xie Xian would still know. She knew him. He wanted to have everything about her under control and never just listened to what she said.
” Doctor Xue said that her pulse this time is a little unusual. She can’t guarantee that-”
“What is it? Doctor Xue said that?” Xie Xian was shocked, his eyes wide open. Doctor Xue wasn’t sure. This had never happened in the Xie family before.
“Men-”
“Wait a minute.” Xiao Baoxin covered Xie Xian’s mouth.”Listen to me first, then call for help.”
“She said that her pulse is different from before. Maybe… Twins.”
Xie Xian’s heart sank. The heavens wanted his life.
He wasn’t sure about other things, but when Xiao Baoxin was pregnant with his first child, he had already read a lot of medical books. A woman giving birth was already a close shave with death, and it was enough to make people afraid. What was even more difficult was having twins. It was good enough that they could give birth. Premature labor was the norm, and there was even a case of massive hemorrhage after childbirth, and the mother would die.
