MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 744 [Excerpt] Holding hands and seeing each other but not knowing each other (5)
It is difficult to change a person's temperament. Although Xie Xian'er can't stand her mother's "love brain", she can't change her at all.
She did not see her mother until the eve of her delivery.
Fukang's pregnancy was originally in an abnormal fetal position, and she was mentally disturbed by her husband's affairs with Tian during the pregnancy, so the delivery was very difficult.
After grinding for a day and a night, the fetus was still not visible. The imperial doctor and midwife came into the delivery room one after another, and the blood was brought out one after another. Xie Xian'er was outside the hall, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Xuanpinghou was as steady as a rock. He glanced at his daughter who was walking around and said in a deep voice: "With so many imperial doctors here, your mother will be fine. You can live in peace for a while. Wandering around here makes me dizzy."
Since Xie Xian'er made a scene in her father's foreign house, the father and daughter haven't seen each other for a while. Xie Xian'er glanced at her father's stoic look and said coldly: "My mother is pregnant with this baby." It's not like that, you didn't let her worry during pregnancy, if something bad happens to her, it's all your fault."
Xuanpinghou hated his daughter contradicting him the most. He scolded him with a stern face: "How could I have such an ungrateful daughter like you? If it weren't for your mother's sake, I would really be too lazy to talk to you."
The father and daughter were bickering here, and the woman at the door hurriedly came over to report: "Master Marquis, someone is coming from Aunt Tian. They say there is something urgent. Please come over quickly."
When Marquis Xuanping heard this, he couldn't sit still. He didn't care to vent his anger with his daughter, and only asked anxiously: "What happened to her?" As he said that, he subconsciously glanced into the delivery room. Why: "Fukang is about to give birth, how can I get away here?"
The old lady frowned and said truthfully: "I heard from someone who answered me that Aunt Tian seems to be pregnant."
“When did this happen?”
As soon as Xuan Pinghou heard this, he stood up suddenly, his face full of joy.
"I heard that I was just diagnosed yesterday and it's almost two months old. But this morning when my aunt got up, she was blushing. She asked a doctor outside, saying that she had injured her body and the fetus might not be saved. My aunt cried non-stop after hearing this. The people below were afraid that she would be too sad and cry, so they came back to report to the Marquis." The maid replied in a coquettish voice.
After hearing these words, Xuanping Hou subconsciously walked out and said anxiously: "What should we do?" After saying that, he ordered the maid beside him: "Go to the imperial physician in the palace." Find one and follow me to my outer house."
Xie Xian'er looked at her father's actions with cold eyes, and her heart felt cold.
The servant girl was hesitating to call the imperial doctor, but Xie Xian'er stopped her first and said in a cold voice: "These imperial doctors are allocated to my mother from the palace. My mother is having a difficult delivery and her life or death is uncertain. At this juncture, my father wants to transfer the imperial doctor to help her." If there is an outside diagnosis and treatment, if something happens to my mother, you will not be able to survive at all."
Just now, Marquis Xuanping suddenly heard that his sweetheart was pregnant, and that there seemed to be something wrong with the fetus in her belly. In an emergency, he felt very anxious. Now that his daughter said this, he also came to his senses.
"Okay, what about life and death? Your mother is giving birth. You are not afraid of taboos when you say this." Marquis Xuanping stopped and his tone softened.
Xie Xian'er rolled her eyes at her father, gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not trying to scare you. If you really dare to take away the imperial doctor at this juncture, I will go to the palace to file a complaint. Don't think that my maternal grandfather is driving." I feel like I have no scruples anymore. Today’s saint is my mother’s biological brother after all. If my mother is fine, then whatever happens is fine. If she does anything wrong at all, you will know the crime in your heart.”
Marquis Xuanping was finally reassured by his daughter's words. He sat down again and muttered: "I just said it casually in a hurry. Your mother is giving birth, so I naturally have to guard her." That’s my rule.”
As he spoke, he stretched his neck and looked into the hall, and said anxiously: "It's been so long, why can't the fetus come out? This is really annoying." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound coming from the hall. There was a cry, and Roufeng ran out happily to report that the princess had given birth to a son.
“I have a son!” Hou Xuanping blurted out after hearing the news.
Xie Xian'er was the first to rush into the inner hall to visit her mother. Fukang's birth was really difficult. After the child was born, she almost died for most of her life. When her daughter came in, she was so tired that her head dropped. Unable to lift it up, he just looked out the door and asked his daughter, "Where is your father?"
At this time, Xie Xian'er naturally would not cause trouble for her mother. She held her mother's hand and comforted her and said: "Father has always been concerned about mother's safety. He will go and see my brother first."
But with such a simple consolation, Fukang's tired face showed a smile of relief: "Your father has been looking forward to his son, now it's better, I finally gave him what he wanted."
Just as he was talking, Marquis Xuanping stepped into the inner hall. When Fukang saw him, he struggled to get up and said excitedly: "Consort, I finally gave you a son, are you happy?"
Marquis Xuanping stepped forward to support his wife and said hurriedly: "You have just given birth. Please rest soon." After that, she said to her daughter beside her: "At this time, your mother needs to be taken care of the most. Let's take care of her." Don’t disturb her here, let her have a good sleep first and recuperate.”
Xie Xian'er knew that her father was worried that she would tell her what had just happened in front of her mother, so she deliberately sent her away. She glanced at her father and said meaningfully: "Mother has gone through a lot of hardships to give birth to children for her father. I hope my father will be well in the future." Life is about cherishing your mother."
"Of course." Xuanpinghou replied without thinking. After saying that, he urged: "Let's go out first and let your mother rest well."
He pulled Xie Xian'er and was about to leave. Fukang, who was lying weakly on the bed, hurriedly grabbed her husband's sleeve and said, "Please stay here with me for a while, I want to talk to you."
Hour Xuanping turned around and replied softly: "You have just given birth and are weak. You need to rest."
Fu Kang looked at her husband eagerly and asked, "Aren't you happy that I gave birth to a son for you?"
"Of course I'm happy, don't think blindly." Marquis Xuanping said this, but he had no intention of staying here for a long time.
Xie Xian'er saw that her father was so perfunctory because he had just heard about Tian's affairs and was in a hurry to go to the other house.
She glanced at her weak mother on the bed with distress, then turned to her father and said, "Father, my mother is your wife. She has just given birth to your child. Just stay here with her for a while."
At this moment, she was no longer the fierce eldest daughter of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion. For the first time, she begged in front of her father, whom she had always disliked.
“That’s good.”
In the end, Marquis Xuanping stayed, and Xie Xianer looked at her mother who was so happy and childish, and reluctantly left the main hall.
