Chapter 406 Happy to have a son

Jiao Xing left, but except for Li Xiang who was very sad, her departure did not cause any ripples in the palace.

The old lady and the eldest princess didn't even bother to ask Aunt Xing, except when the fifth sister came over to take a look.

Fast forward to July, Pingyang successfully gave birth to a boy.

Pingyang gave birth to two daughters in a row, and she got a son in one fell swoop. Everyone in the Zhenguo Palace was very happy. The eldest princess even gave a manor in the suburbs of Beijing to her grandson as a meeting gift.

Xiaoshiro was named by Pingyang, and he was called Brother Heng.

In order to make up for the injustice suffered by Pingyang, Brother Heng's full moon banquet was held in the mansion for three days, and its grandeur was far more grand than that of the other children.

Jing Shu and Xu Wanning also prepared generous gifts for Brother Heng and sent away the last wave of guests. They came to Xianglin Garden to visit Pingyang mother and son.

Brother Xiao Heng is fair and chubby. He is as handsome as Pingyang and is very popular.

Xu Wanning hugged Brother Heng and couldn't put it down and said: "Looking at such a cute big fat boy, I am so lovable that it makes me want to have children again."

Jing Shu covered her mouth and smiled and teased her: "Brother Ping is getting older now. If you want to have a baby, why not do it while he is at home. I heard that floods are still serious in the south this year. After a while, brother may be affected again."

If we are transferred to the south for flood relief, you will have to wait again."

Xu Wanning replied to Jing Shu: "You still have the intention to urge me here. Why haven't you refused after all these years? You only have two, but you are lagging behind."

Jingshu had indeed always wanted to have another child, but Li Ling was frightened when she gave birth to her brother Bao, and even after all these years, Li Ling still did not agree to let her have another child.

When she mentioned this, Jingshu felt aggrieved. She just made an excuse and replied: "I've always wanted it, but I didn't get pregnant."

Seeing that both of them were so keen on having children, Pingyang said with a bitter face: "It turns out that it is easy for you to conceive children. This is enough for me. Fortunately, this baby is a boy, and I don't plan to have any more children."

Already."

The three sisters-in-law were chatting around the children here, and Li Xiang walked in casually. Pingyang closed his mouth angrily, and the originally lively room fell into embarrassment.

In order to lighten the atmosphere, Xu Wanning joked to Li Xiang: "The third brother is happy to have a son. This time it is considered complete. Are you happy?"

Since Jiao Xing left the house, Li Xiang has been depressed. Although Ping Yang has given birth to a son for him, he is not happy either.

Li Xiang forced a smile and replied perfunctorily: "Boy or girl, it's all fine, I like them all the same."

When Jing Shu and Xu Wanning saw Li Xiang returning, they didn't stay any longer. They exchanged a few words and left Xianglin Garden together.

Xu Wanning couldn't help complaining to Jing Shu: "What do you think of this third brother? Is the one named Jiao Xing so good? I think since this girl left, he seems to have lost his soul."

Yes, I didn't hear how he doted on that girl when she was in the mansion."

Jing Shu sighed slightly and said, "It can be seen that the third brother really loves that girl. He did that just to protect her."

It's really touching that a noble son like Li Xiang can be so affectionate and loyal to a lowly woman, but it really hurts Pingyang's heart.

Xu Wanning said with emotion: "Fortunately, Pingyang finally gave birth to a boy, which can be considered some comfort."

The two sisters-in-law were walking back when the woman at the door caught up and came back to tell them that Zhou Jiangning was up in General Zhou's mansion and asked to see them.

Jing Shu ordered Zhou Jiangning to be invited to the front hall, and the two sisters also went to the front hall to see Zhou Jiangning.

While watching the Dragon Boat Festival during the Dragon Boat Festival, Zhou Jiangning was bitten by a vicious dog. Although his vital parts were not injured, he was seriously injured. More than a month has passed and his arm is still wrapped in a thick bandage.

After meeting the two ladies of the Duke's mansion, Zhou Jiangning ordered someone to present him with the generous gifts he had prepared, and said politely: "I was supposed to come to the feast for the full moon of the Fifth Prince, but look at what I look like.

It's nice to meet people, I just wait until the guests have dispersed before coming over."

Jing Shu looked at Zhou Jiangning's wrapped arm and asked with concern: "It's so badly hurt here. Do we have to recover for a while?"

Zhou Jiangning replied: "The other wounds are all fine. It's just that a piece of flesh was torn off this arm by that beast. It will take a while to recover."

Glancing at Zhou Jiangning's slightly haggard appearance after being tortured, Xu Wanning sighed and said, "It's so unlucky to have such a misfortune happen to me for no reason. It's a pity that I don't know where the beast was raised. It's so harmful to people."

shallow."

Zhou Jiangning looked at Jing Shu and Xu Wanning and snorted coldly: "Do you two ladies really think that this beast is hurting people unintentionally?"

When Xu Wanning heard this, she wondered: "Could this disaster be caused intentionally by someone?"

Zhou Jiangning replied: "That beast entered the pavilion and pounced directly on me and Wynn. How could there be such a coincidence? I thought it was strange, so I ordered someone to secretly investigate. Huh! Sure enough, someone deliberately wanted to harm our sister and brother.

?”

Jing Shu guessed: "Could it be the Zhao family who was imprisoned in Jinchan Temple?"

"Second Madam, you guessed it right." Zhou Jiangning said bitterly: "I have always felt that this matter was strange. After that, I ordered someone to check it secretly in Jinchan Temple. Sure enough, someone had seen that beast in Zhao's yard, hum.

!The person who hates our siblings the most is Ms. Zhao, who else could have done this if she hadn’t done it?”

When Xu Wanning heard this, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth and cursed: "This Zhao family has a vicious heart. Now that he has fallen to this point, he still refuses to repent. It's really hateful!"

Jing Shu frowned and replied: "It's a pity that the vicious dog is just a beast, and it has no symptoms."

When Zhou Jiangning mentioned this, he also sighed and said bitterly: "That's right, a beast can't open his mouth to point out serious crimes. No matter how angry my Zhou family is, I can't hold that bitch to task."

Jing Shu asked: "I heard that Uncle Zhou was very angry because of Zhao's incident a while ago. Is he feeling better now?"

Zhou Jiangning waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it. Ever since I learned that this bitch was deliberately plotting to harm our siblings, my father's illness has become even worse."

Xu Wanning said: "Uncle Zhou has a long-standing problem. It is hard to avoid fighting against the Xiongnu. Now that Zhao is tossing him, his body can no longer bear it."

Zhou Jiangning echoed: "Yes, this time my father's body is completely useless. He really can't fight on the battlefield anymore. I'm afraid he will have to retire. Alas! I don't think my father, a man who is so upright and upright, actually married

For marrying a stupid woman like Mrs. Zhao, Concubine Meng is really committing a crime."

As she said that, she couldn't help but resent Zhao Yuan'er and said: "I gave that bitch an advantage this time, but I have a grudge in my heart. Sooner or later, I will make that bitch pay back all the money he owes me to the Zhou family."
