happy rebirth

Chapter 88

Xie Jinhua couldn't help looking at Ke Qi, probably because he subconsciously felt that Ke Qi could help him make up his mind.

Children have a natural yearning for their mother, especially Xie Jinhua.No matter how kind Xie Da is to Xie Jinhua, he is just a big brother. Xie Jinhua may not lack love, but this does not prevent him from longing for maternal love.At this moment, he had the opportunity to know his biological mother, and he was a little apprehensive amidst the excitement.

Ke Qi also basically guessed Aunt Jiang's identity. He squeezed Xie Jinhua's hand and said to Li Yang, "Let her in."

Zhuangzi of Qingyanghoufu, the old man of Qingyanghoufu, even though Xie Jinhua and Ke Qi haven't met the old servant, they are emotionally inclined to believe her words.However, there must have been more than one servant around Xie Jinhua's biological mother back then, why did an old servant appear now?

Have the rest of the servants really been dealt with?

Soon, an old woman about 50 years old walked in with her head down.Her hair was already gray, and the clothes on her body were a bit old, but the material didn't look particularly bad, and it was similar to other people in Zhuangzi. From this, it could be deduced that her life was not too difficult.

The old woman claimed her surname was Gao, and she once served Aunt Jiang by her side.After Aunt Jiang passed away, she was assigned to Zhuangzi, where she has lived until now.If this Concubine Jiang is really Xie Jinhua's biological mother, then Gao Nanny's behavior of kowtowing to Xie Jinhua on her own initiative also makes sense, this is just an expression of her loyalty.After all, for a lifelong slave like Nanny Gao, after the death of the old master, of course he must be loyal to the heir born of the old master.

Xie Jinhua was very nervous. He wanted to ask a question, but he opened his mouth but only made a trembling sound.

Ke Qi squeezed Xie Jinhua's palm again, which was to comfort him.When Xie Jinhua calmed down a bit, Ke Qi asked Li Yang to get Nanny Gao a low stool so she could sit and talk.Ke Qi asked with a smile: "Ma'am, the Aunt Jiang you're talking about is the birth mother of our Fourth Young Master?"

"If the young master is ranked fourth in the mansion, that's it. That day when my aunt had a difficult delivery, the master exploded all the servants in a fit of anger. Before leaving the mansion, this old slave was lucky enough to hug the fourth young master in a hurry." Gao Nanny said neither humble nor overbearing Said, "The fourth young master has a small mole under the left shoulder, but?"

Xie Jinhua looked at Ke Qi again.He couldn't see his back.

However, Ke Qi was not very clear about this.Although they have the name of husband and wife, they are not actually husband and wife. Although they both sleep together at night, they are both in black and white and wearing middle clothes. Ke Qi really doesn't know what is on Xie Jinhua's body.On the contrary, Li Yang has been serving Xie Jinhua to take a bath. When Xie Jinhua takes a bath, Li Yang has to be responsible for adding water.He whispered from the side: "Master, this nanny is really right."

Ke Qi couldn't help but glance at Li Yang.

Li Yang shrank his neck.

Xie Jinhua knew nothing about the interaction between the two of them, he got the answer from Li Yang, and immediately believed Gao Nanny's words.This is indeed served in front of his biological mother!She must know a lot about his biological mother!Xie Jinhua only felt that his eyes were a bit astringent, as if tears were about to fall.He sniffed, thousands of words gathered on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't utter a single word.He could only squeeze Ke Qi's hand tightly.

Ke Qi sighed inwardly.If it wasn't for Li Yang and Nanny Gao, he really wanted to hug Xie Jinhua and comfort him.

"Please tell Madam Gao about Auntie's affairs." Ke Qi said to Madam Gao.

Although Madam Gao was given a low stool, she didn't dare to sit all the time, she only sat a little bit close to the edge of the low stool, and she was obviously a very well-behaved person.She repeatedly said: "How can I bear the word 'trouble', what the young master wants to know, as long as the old slave knows, I will definitely not hide anything."

According to Nanny Gao, Aunt Jiang is the only daughter of an old scholar with a clean but rough background.After the death of the old scholar, the family property was taken over by the nephews of the family, and those people even framed Aunt Jiang for adultery, forcing Aunt Jiang to jump into the river.Fortunately, Aunt Jiang was rescued by Lord Hou. Seeing that her face resembled that of his original partner, Mrs. Chen, and he really missed his original partner all these years, he took Aunt Jiang, who had nowhere to go, by his side.

Perhaps it was because of empathy that Lord Hou valued Aunt Jiang more. Although he didn't break the rules between wives and concubines for her, he did do everything for her.Aunt Jiang will soon become pregnant, and if she can give birth to an heir safely, she will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life.It's a pity that her beauty was unlucky, and the root cause of her disease had already fallen when she jumped into the river. Even with careful care, the child was still born prematurely, and Aunt Jiang also passed away due to heavy bleeding.

Hearing this, Xie Jinhua's eyes were completely red.He didn't expect his biological mother to experience so much misfortune!

Ke Qi couldn't bear to see Xie Jinhua so sad, so he comforted him and said: "Auntie is alive in heaven, I must be very pleased to see that you are doing well now. What's more, although Auntie is gone, she is also accompanying you in other ways .For example, your taste is sweet, you must have followed your aunt, right?"

Xie Houye was a carnivorous person when he was young, but now he doesn't like sweets much when he is old, so Xie Jinhua definitely didn't follow him.

Ke Qi looked at Nanny Gao, wanting to persuade this nanny to follow suit.

Gao Nanny said very cautiously: "This old slave is good at treating pregnant women. He was ordered by Lord Hou to serve her after she was pregnant. After a woman is pregnant, her taste often changes greatly. As far as the old slave knows , Auntie can eat both sweet and salty things, this is really not accurate."

There seems to be nothing wrong with this.

As a servant, one must be loyal, and the other must be cautious.It is always right for Madam Gao to be more cautious.

However, whether the taste is sweet or salty is just a sentence. Even if the taste changes during pregnancy, then "my aunt prefers sweet food when she is pregnant" or "my aunt prefers salty food when she is pregnant" is also a sentence.However, Nanny Gao said so much, but directly avoided this question.

Ke Qi had a strange feeling in his heart.

Of course, this may be Ke Qi's overthinking, maybe Gao Nanny is really just being more cautious.Otherwise, why were all the people who served Aunt Jiang's side were dealt with (this is also what Grandma Gao herself said), but Nanny Gao was still alive even though she was dispatched to Zhuangzi.

Ke Qi smiled again and said to Xie Jinhua: "That's right! Brother Xie, didn't my aunt embroider a handkerchief for you? Auntie's heart is hidden in every stitch and thread. If it wasn't for the fact that there was a pregnant woman on the mother's side The saying that you can’t do needlework at the time, I’m afraid my aunt made it for you even the little clothes.”

This is all a test, and Ke Qi has such an ability to tell a false statement as if it is true.

The mother in Ke Qi's words refers to Mrs. Zhang, the current mistress of the Xie Mansion.

Originally, Ke Qi thought that women in ancient times would not use needles and needles after pregnancy. After he traveled through time, he realized that he was misled by TV dramas.In fact, there are regional differences.In some places, people believe that moving needles and threads during pregnancy will disturb the fetus god, which is not good for the fetus, and may cause the child to be disabled. There is no disaster.

Mistress Zhang believed in the former.But Xie Er's wife Zhuang believed in the latter.

Gao Nai still had a cautious look, and said: "Auntie is a responsible person. Madam also liked her responsible temperament at that time."

Now even Xie Jinhua noticed something was wrong.Where does he have the handkerchief embroidered by his aunt?Moreover, for Mrs. Zhang, what she values ​​most is not the feelings of Lord Hou, but her virtuous and generous face.For the sake of her own face, she will prepare a room for Xie Jinhua, but she doesn't care whether Xie Jinhua sleeps in the room or not.Also for the sake of face, she would remind Zhuang Shi not to touch needles and threads when she was pregnant, but she didn't care whether Zhuang Shi listened or not.In fact, when Xie Jinhua lived in Xie's mansion, he heard his second brother brag several times, and his second sister-in-law even made him a purse when she was pregnant.

When Nanny Gao said that, she clearly didn't understand Mrs. Zhang!Her every answer is like a panacea.

Xie Jinhua's complexion was a little ugly.

Ke Qi felt that Nanny Gao should not have lied to a certain extent. If she really fabricated Aunt Jiang's life experience, how many lives would she have to pay for when Xie Jinhua brought the matter to the mansion?But Nanny Gao is definitely not that popular in front of Aunt Jiang.She might have been a marginal figure at the time, so although she knew Aunt Jiang's background, she didn't know her specific preferences and temperament.

"Brother Xie, don't be sad." Ke Qi hugged Xie Jinhua into his arms and pressed Xie Jinhua's face on his shoulder.

Now the only person who can provide information about Xie Jinhua's birth mother is Gao Nai, and Ke Qi doesn't plan to offend her immediately, lest Xie Jinhua will regret it.

Although Gao Momo didn't know that she had shown her feet, she was also a person with good eyesight.Seeing the expressions of the two young masters, I knew that I shouldn't stay any longer.Simply because her purpose of appearing today has been achieved, Nanny Gao got up to say goodbye, and left the room with Li Yang.

Ke Qi immediately asked Li Yang to go out to find out the news.

Li Yang will be back soon.

Zhuangzi is not a big man, and Zhuangtou knows every household well.This Gao Nanny lived here more than ten years ago, which indeed coincides with Xie Jinhua's birth time.She also has a skill in treating pregnant women. Since she came to Zhuangzi, she has taken care of all the pregnant daughter-in-laws here, so her popularity is very good.By the way, three days ago, Nanny Gao was forced to put the ducks on the shelf to help a cow with dystocia deliver the baby smoothly.

There is no problem with Gao Nanny's contract of prostitution.Moreover, if Ke Qi hadn't suddenly wanted to help Xie Jinhua create a newspaper, so he needed a lot of movable type, and if Ke Qi hadn't needed to come to Zhuangzi to check the progress of the craftsmen's work, Xie Jinhua might never set foot in this Zhuangzi in his life.

Therefore, if Gao Nanny is not trustworthy, then unless someone had foreseen that Xie Jinhua would definitely come to this Zhuangzi more than ten years ago, they could arrange for a Gao Nanny to wait here to plot against him.And such an assumption is of course untenable.Xie Jinhua's life experience is not easy to manipulate!

"...I'm afraid she's just a little vain, maybe she was just your mother's rough envoy back then." Ke Qi said to Xie Jinhua.

It is inevitable that people will have selfishness. In Ke Qi's view, Madam Gao's self-promotion is nothing more than wanting to get Xie Jinhua's attention.

"Don't blame her." Xie Jinhua sighed, "For so many years, she was the only one who mentioned my biological mother in front of me. Instead, I have to thank her well. This nun has no children, and she has no children in Zhuangzi. There is not much money to be made, maybe I just want to get some more rewards from me."

"Again, think about it carefully, she really can't be a personal servant." Ke Qi said.

According to Madam Gao, Aunt Jiang looks like Lord Hou's original partner, Mrs. Chen, so she must have been used as a substitute by Lord Hou.As a result, the original wife Chen died of dystocia, and this Aunt Jiang also died of dystocia. Master Hou has experienced a second injury. He must not be able to accept this, so he dealt with all the people who were close to him in a fit of anger. After all, Gao Nanny can only survive if she is an underappreciated rough envoy.

Considering the character of the mistress Zhang, she dared not refute any of Lord Hou's decisions, so when Aunt Jiang was alive, she would definitely not oppose Aunt Jiang.However, the existence of Aunt Jiang is indeed a bit of a shock to Zhang. The husband is so obsessed with his original partner that he even finds a substitute, which is obviously a slap in the face of his second wife.So when Aunt Jiang died, she was somewhat relieved as the mistress, and forbade the people in the house to talk about Aunt Jiang any more.

Even some of Xie Da's actions made sense.

According to Xie Jinhua, when he was sick when he was a child, Xie Da used to take care of him.It is inevitable that a sick child will long for his birth mother in his illness.But Xie Da didn't mention Aunt Jiang at that time.Maybe it's because Aunt Jiang's existence is embarrassing.Xie Da has always had a good impression of his younger brothers because he is related by blood.But how could he have a crush on an aunt who looks like his biological mother?

Lord Hou showed a subtle sense of scum in the whole incident, I'm afraid Xie Da would have been overwhelmed by it.

Ke Qi went through all kinds of thoughts in his mind, and felt that the logic was flawless.
