General Wu nodded, but before she came to leave, he warned her again and again:
"Don't think about being the number one pick. Although he is young, he is very talented and very skillful in handling things. You must not provoke him."
Mrs. Wu disagreed.
But she didn't show it on her face.
Mrs. Wu first came to Wu Jingwan's boudoir.
Seeing her still lying on her stomach, crying silently.
But it made her feel bad.
Someone comes in with bird's nest porridge.
"Jing'er, why are you doing this? Hurry up and have something to eat. Grandma will make the decision for you in everything."
Wu Jingwan's eyes suddenly became surprisingly bright.
She knew her ruse was half successful.
As long as her mother is on her side, this matter is probably considered a success.
Thinking of this, she felt that she needed to add more fire.
So she cried even more sadly: "I know that my mother loves me the most, but how can I do this for my mother and embarrass my mother?"
When Wu saw that her daughter was so sensible, she felt even more distressed.
"Jing'er, tell me, what is it? My mother will make the decision for you."
Wu Jingwan knew that the time had come, so she said softly: "Mom, I just fell in love with the number one scholar at first sight. I really won't marry him unless I am right. Please let me do it!!"
Wu's heart could no longer be calm, and it turned out that it was indeed true. Her daughter is so beautiful and well-behaved, and rarely goes out.
I immediately fell in love with this year's No. 1 pick.
She already had an idea in her mind: "Jing'er, are you telling the truth? Do you know that he already has a wife, don't you mind? You could have married a better husband. "
She still hopes her daughter will change her mind.
After all, given her family's conditions, she could marry a prince, a person with such a distinguished status as the Crown Prince.
"Mom, I know, but what should I do? I only like him and will not marry him. If I can't marry him, I would rather go to the temple and be a nun in this life." Wu Jingwan said while crying, and said at any time Looking at Wu's expression.
She knew it was almost done.
Judging from my mother's tone, I agreed.
"Okay, okay, don't cry. I already know what you want. You can eat in peace and wait at home. I will find a way for you to get what you want." Wu gently stroked her daughter's head. It seemed that she was the only one to take action in this matter.
Isn't he just an amateur with no status?
Isn’t that simple?
Wouldn't it be better to remove the first connection?
When she came to the side hall, she called her personal maid: "Aunt Rong, please send someone to find out about this new top scholar first, and then we can make careful plans."
Aunt Rong is her dowry maid and her caring person. She usually provides advice and suggestions for everything she wants to do.
It can be said that for so many years, General Wu has had no other children, and her position has been so strong. This is all due to her.
"Madam, I will go and do it now."
Not long after, the inquirer came back.
"How?" Wu asked anxiously.
The man replied respectfully: "Mrs. Qi, according to my investigation, the wife of the new top scholar is a country woman. She is now six months pregnant."
That person is indeed very witty and intelligent, and he knows what the key information needs to be conveyed.
Sure enough, when he said these words, Wu's eyes immediately flashed with excitement.
She and Aunt Rong beside her exchanged a tacit look, as if they understood instantly, and both of them had already figured out what to do next.
Today, giving birth to a child is like wandering on the edge of life and death for a woman, just like passing through the gate of hell.
If you are unlucky, a slight mistake may lead to your death.
In this case, we must start from this key point! Only in this way can we ensure that everything will happen quietly and without anyone noticing, so that the woman can die without anyone noticing...
It seemed that all they needed to do was to do something with the midwife they were looking for.
Mrs. Wu gave Aunt Rong a look.
The two of them had already connected with each other. Aunt Rong caught Wu's look and went to do the work immediately.
Mrs. Wu returned to her daughter's room and patted her hand gently: "Wan'er, eat something first. Mom will tell you good news. I promise you will be alive and kicking again."
Wu Jingwan cried coquettishly when she saw Wu.
Hearing what Wu said, he quickly sat up and wiped away his tears.
"Mom, what is going on? Please stop worrying about your daughter. I want to hear it now."
Wu smiled proudly and said, "Don't you like that new top scholar? You should take good care of your health first. It won't take long, and I promise you will get what you want!"
Wu Jingwan's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on her face. She stared at Wu closely, her voice trembling with excitement:
"Mom, is everything you said true?
Are you trying to trick your daughter? "
Her hands clenched unconsciously, and her heart was filled with anticipation and nervousness.
The excitement was beyond words, as if it was about to burst out of his eyes.
Wu Jingwan really couldn't imagine that her mother could come up with a solution to the problem so quickly.
This made her extremely surprised and admired.
She was still immersed in anxiety, but now she seemed to see a glimmer of light, and the flame of hope ignited in her heart.
She eagerly hoped that her mother could give a positive answer so that her hanging heart could be completely relieved.
Sure enough, my mother has to take action when something goes wrong.
Wu reassured her again:
"Wan'er, when did my mother lie to you? You just need to take good care of yourself first.
You'll be able to get what you want in next year at most. Why don't you get up quickly and dress up.
You can't be so willful next time when something happens.
Your body is your own, so what’s the point of being starved? Isn’t it you who feels the discomfort?
When the time comes, what will you do if you take me as your mother? "
Wu Jingwan got a positive answer and immediately cheered up: "Thank you, mother, for making you worry. It's all because of your daughter's unfilial piety. My daughter should dress up now and take good care of herself as soon as possible."
Mrs. Wu really loved her.
Help her put on clothes and dress her up personally.
This kind of pampering was unique in the ancient feudal society that favored sons over daughters.
But Wu Jingwan has long been accustomed to all this.
It can be seen that this is not the first time Wu has behaved like this.
Wu Jingwan was in a good mood, and her calculations had come to fruition.
This strategy took advantage of Wu's love for her.
If she had told her clearly first, Wu would definitely not have helped her.
Sure enough, she also understood Wu.
A rather roundabout method was used.
Since her mother said next year, she can just wait and see.
She still knows her mother's ability to do things.
Otherwise, in the entire General Wu Mansion, there were so many concubines, but she and her brother were the only heirs, and the father would still respect his mother very much.
