Auntie Lin of the Red Chamber

Chapter 14 The Bombshell Strikes

Liu Wangzhi, the family doctor of the Lin family, has been very troubled recently. The reason is that during a routine pulse diagnosis for Aunt Wu, he felt that he had diagnosed two pulses, and there was even a faintly visible one between the strong two pulses.Dr. Liu had never seen this case before, and he was very careful to diagnose and diagnose again, but he still didn't dare to make a diagnosis, so he specially invited his father.The old doctor Liu has rich experience, and he took the pulse carefully at the first hand, and it was all right, and the diagnosis was made. Aunt Wu was pregnant with three, two were stronger, and the other was weaker.

Dr. Liu was very depressed, he was the only family doctor in the Lin family, if something happened, his brand would be ruined.But this possibility is quite high, think about it, the family members of these dignitaries and dignitaries, the biggest amount of activity is embroidering in the butterfly embroidery room in the garden, and it is difficult to give birth to a child. Auntie is still three.Although Aunt Wu's natal family was not rich, and she often did housework when she was young, she was by no means a farmer's woman from a peasant family, and it was as easy as a chicken to lay eggs.I thought it was a second child, and if they were raised well, they would not have to worry about giving birth. Who would have thought that this terrible situation would happen again, and it really made people feel that they couldn't sleep well or eat well.Dr. Liu complained silently to Wu Jin, you think your stomach is not made of dumplings, and you also pay attention to thin skin and big stuffing.

Wu Jin didn't know that he was disgusted by the doctor. Ever since he was told that he was pregnant with three, he was stunned. He didn't know where his mind was wandering.When she saw that Dr. Liu had taken the pulse by himself, and then invited his father to take the pulse, she felt that there might be something wrong with her body.But, what could go wrong? Wu Jin is also very careful about her life, and she makes full use of her portable space, and she believes that her own space, although it doesn't have any magical effect, can keep her and the baby in her belly healthy. , definitely not a problem.But what I never expected was that the problem did not lie in quality, but in quantity.Obviously oversubscribed, Wu Jin secretly sighed, the power of space is really amazing.

It happened to be the first month of the year, and the strong atmosphere of the New Year dissipated a lot, and the masters of the Lin family could gradually sit down and have a good rest.It was no coincidence that just after recovering, she received such a powerful bomb attack. The old lady wanted more grandchildren, so she was more surprised than happy.Even Jia Min, who had fallen ill and needed to recuperate, was so shocked that his face paled. He even asked the little maid who came to report the news: "Is this news true?"

The little maid also grew up so big, she was very surprised when she heard that she was pregnant with the third child for the first time, she looked at Wu Jin before she came here, as if she saw some strange scene, and she will report it to Jia Min, also in a magical way He said in a calm tone: "Mrs. Wu, Aunt Wu is indeed pregnant with a third child. Dr. Liu didn't dare to make a diagnosis after taking the pulse himself. It was Dr. Liu's father, and the old doctor Liu took the pulse himself."

Jia Min couldn't sit still anymore, but she couldn't go to see her when she was sick, so she asked Mother Fang to bring some medicinal materials to eat and visit.Looking at the back of Nanny Fang leaving, Jia Min was full of thoughts.She admits that she doesn't like Wu Jin. Of course, no woman likes her husband's other women. After that woman gave birth to her husband, she hates it even more, especially if she hasn't given birth to a child herself. A thorn in the heart.How many times has Jia Min dreamed back to the good times of the newly married years in the middle of the night, and even the more she thinks about those good times, the more she wished that Wu Jin would disappear in this world.But she never thought that this unbearable thought that could only come up in the shadows of a certain corner of her heart would soon come true.Jia Min's mood suddenly became delicate.

Lin Ruhai is still working in the yamen. Since he was promoted to deputy envoy of the General Administration, Lin Ruhai has officially entered the sight of the central government of the capital. After all, although his position is not high, he is very sensitive. The process is limited, and it is impeached in violation of the rules. Hong suspected the big prison, and the Ministry and the court will discuss it."The young men of the Lin family were quite capable, and they reported it to Lin Ruhai as soon as possible. Lin Ruhai was surprised and delighted. He was spinning various ideas in his mind, and his hands also accelerated his movements, hoping to finish the work in the morning and go home for lunch. up.Unexpectedly, such a big incident happened, Lin Ruhai could only put all his thoughts down and devote himself to his work.

Today, Emperor Shangxi Kang has made great efforts to govern the country since he ascended the throne, and the country is prosperous and the people are peaceful, which has greatly promoted the development of industry and commerce in the city.Especially like Suzhou, a big city with well-developed land and water and convenient transportation, is developing very prosperously.Correspondingly, in those handicraft workshops and handicraft factories, in order to expand the income of exploitation greedily, the employers often deducted the wages of handicraft workers, or delayed wages and other abuses, which caused great dissatisfaction and resistance of the workers.In the ninth year of Xikang, due to the shortage of rice and expensive rice, Dou Guifu and others used leaflets to date and ask for an increase in wages, so many craftsmen stopped working and waited and watched.But the control of the name of the cloth industry was not allowed. The government protected the interests of the cloth merchants and expelled the troublemakers.In the 32nd year of Emperor Xikang, the wages of kickers still had not been increased at all, and their lives had not been improved at all, so Luo Gui and others once again gathered together to demand an increase in wages and threatened to strike the market. suppress.As a result, the kickers couldn't bear it anymore, and at the beginning of the 40th year of Xikang this year, such a large-scale strike broke out.Crowds of mobs, armed with sticks and knives, broke into the homes of their employers, vandalized and looted. The whole city of Suzhou panicked for a while, and the officials were no longer arrogant and lazy as before. They all walked in a hurry and looked solemn.

For such a big incident, of course the Lin family took precautions at the beginning of the incident.Lin Ruhai was not at home when he went out to work, and the two big butlers inside and outside the Lin Mansion brought their servants to guard the outer courtyard and various gates. The old lady Lin had to sit in the back house in person, and Jia Min and the aunts all gathered in the old lady's courtyard.Because the rebellious mob is still outside the south city, and far from the west city where the officials' houses gather, although they are a little worried from the old lady down, they can still bear it.Because Jia Min was sick, as soon as he entered the door, the old lady arranged for Jia Min to go to the East Wing to rest. In a blink of an eye, he saw two people standing behind Wu Jin, Aunt Shi and Aunt Wei, and ordered the two of them: "Good life, take care of me." Your wives go."

Jia Min had no choice but to thank her mother-in-law for her kindness, and led the two aunts away.Lying on the couch in the east wing, Jia Min's improved mood due to some unspeakable thoughts in the morning has disappeared.How could Jia Min, who is smart and exquisite, not know what her mother-in-law was thinking.But it can be regarded as being used to being wronged by the old lady, so Jia Min changed her mind once she was sad.Even with a glance, she could tell that a pregnant woman who was five months pregnant had a very good complexion, even better than that of an ordinary person like her who had been carefully nursed.Jia Min couldn't help sighing, maybe this Wu family can get through the difficulties, maybe this Wu family will make the mother and child safe, then this Wu family has four children under his name, and it should not be underestimated.Jia Min wondered again, could it be that this Mrs. Wu is the one whose mother always talked about the future, then what should happen to me, Jia Min.The more he thought about it, the more hesitant he became. When Lin Ruhai returned home at night, Jia Min's eyes were full of worry, his face was haggard.Lin Ruhai thought it was because Jia Min was too worried about him, but he was greatly moved.
