Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 174 Important Person
What Old Mrs. Xiao cares most about is the child.
"Don't worry, old lady. Although Aunt Sun showed signs of miscarriage, fortunately she was treated in time. Miss Xiao just gave Aunt Sun a few more injections, and the bleeding has stopped."
After hearing what Pei Yun said, Old Lady Xiao went to see Xiao Ruge again. After all, she was the apprentice of the miracle doctor, and her words were much more trustworthy than Pei Yun's.
"Don't worry, Aunt Sun is fine. She just needs to stay in bed for a while to take good care of the baby. She also needs to take a lot of supplements during this period. Doctor Pei will prescribe medicine for Aunt Sun in a while."
After getting Xiao Ruge's assurance, Old Lady Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and clasped her hands together and bowed to the sky.
"Buddha bless you, Buddha bless you! By the way, Ruge, Aunt Sun has been pregnant for three months. Can you tell if it's a boy or a girl?"
Xiao Ruge looked at Pei Yun, and Pei Yun stroked his beard.
"From the pulse, it looks like it's a boy, but there's no guarantee. It's better not to make it public yet. Everything will be clear when it's ripe!"
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. Although Pei Yun was 80% sure that Aunt Sun was pregnant with a boy, everything was subject to change and he did not say anything for sure.
But even so, Mrs. Xiao had already determined that it was a boy, and she was even happier. She even doubled the medical fee for Pei Yun.
After seeing Pei Yun off, Old Lady Xiao went to see Aunt Sun first. Aunt Sun had fallen asleep after taking the medicine. She told Cai Kui to take good care of Aunt Sun, and then took everyone to the reception room.
Today's incident was Xu's fault. As soon as Mrs. Xiao sat down, she slammed the table hard, pointed at Xu's nose and started scolding.
"Xu, although you are dull, you are also obedient. I usually treat you kindly. I didn't expect you to do such a bastard thing today!"
Xu was so scared that she knelt down with a plop, not caring about the younger generation around, and cried with tears and snot.
"Mother-in-law, I didn't mean it. It was that bitch Sun who contradicted me, and I got so angry that I pushed her!"
"Second Madam, although Sun is a concubine, she is also a noble concubine. How come you call her a slut? She is pregnant with the child of the Xiao family. If you keep calling her a slut, then wouldn't the child in her belly become a slut?"
Mu Gu spoke leisurely. He was dressed in a prince's attire and sat upright on a chair. His slender fingers tapped lightly on the lid of the teacup on the table.
His pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, staring at Xu as if he was watching a good show.
When Xiao Ruge was in the Xiao family, Xu would always make trouble for her. Now that she has found the chance, how could Mu Gu not take revenge?
To Old Lady Xiao, his words sounded like Xu scolding her own son. She became even angrier and punished Xu by confining her to her room for three months, forbidding her to step into Aunt Sun's yard.
After Xu left crying, Old Mrs. Xiao sighed tiredly, forced herself to look at Mu Gu, and forced a smile.
"Make the prince laugh."
Mu Gu chuckled after hearing this, "Old Madam, you are also a very thoughtful person. Why did you choose Xu as your daughter-in-law? Lord Xiao is now in the court like a fish in water. You must not let this daughter-in-law drag Lord Xiao down!"
With Mu Gu's earnest reminder, Old Lady Xiao couldn't help but think that she should restrain Xu more in the future. Her son's future must not be ruined in her hands!
After this side finished speaking, Xiao Ruge thought for a moment and couldn't help but speak.
"Grandmother, Ruge has something on her mind. Please help me."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
Old Mrs. Xiao was thinking about Xu's matter when she heard Xiao Ruge say that she had something to ask her, and she quickly looked up at her.
Previously, Xiao Ruge had also contributed to saving the baby in Aunt Sun's belly. Although she felt a little bit like repaying a favor now, Old Lady Xiao really couldn't refuse.
"Didn't my great-aunt give Ruge some manpower before? There is a manager named Li among them. I think he is quite steady, so I want to send him to manage my granddaughter's property in other places."
Old Mrs. Xiao listened quietly without saying anything.
Xiao Ruge continued, "I thought that if he went to another place, he would miss his family and would not be able to do his job well. So today I dared to ask my aunt to show mercy and give me all of Manager Li's family. I would not ask for nothing. I will pay double the price to buy out their indentures so that his family can be reunited!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao rolled her eyes first, then smiled and nodded.
"It should be so, but Manager Li's wife is also a minor manager in my courtyard. If she leaves, I won't be able to find a replacement for her. Why not..."
"Old lady, you have been in charge of the Xiao family for so many years, there must be a few people around you who can take charge of things, right? It's just a maid, you won't be reluctant to let her go, right?"
Originally, Mu Gu was just listening to gossip. He didn't expect Xiao Ruge to ask Old Madam Xiao for the person. What he didn't expect was that Old Madam Xiao actually refused to give it to him.
How is this possible?
So the tea lid in his hand fell an inch away from the teacup, making a crisp impact sound, which made Old Mrs. Xiao's heart skip a beat.
Things are different now. When Mu Gu was still a prince, they could not afford to offend him. What's more, he is a prince now. As long as he speaks, who can interfere?
So Old Lady Xiao smiled and nodded, "Ruge has thought it through. If Manager Li's family members are with him, he will definitely work harder. I will ask Madam Qian to find the indenture contract for his family members for you."
Although she was very reluctant, with Mu Gu watching her, she had no choice but to accept it.
I had originally thought of using Manager Li's family to restrain him, but who knew that Xiao Ruge would come so quickly.
It seems that Manager Li has already become estranged from the Xiao family, otherwise Xiao Ruge would not have come to ask for the indentures of his family members.
Since she couldn't keep him, Old Lady Xiao didn't dwell on the matter any more. She just cursed Manager Li for being ungrateful in her heart and happily gave the indentures of Manager Li's family to Xiao Ruge.
Manager Li has been married for twenty years and has two sons and one daughter with his wife. The daughter is the youngest. The two sons are already working for the Xiao family. Among the four servants previously assigned to Xiao Ruge, one is his second son.
Now Xiao Ruge only needs to buy the indentures of his wife and one son and one daughter.
Old Mrs. Xiao didn't want to accept the money at first, thinking of selling Xiao Ruge out for good, but Xiao Ruge insisted, and after repeated refusals, she finally had to accept it.
When Xiao Ruge and Mu Gu left the Xiao family, the sun had already set. The two of them came out after dinner, otherwise Old Lady Xiao would not let them leave.
