Chapter 239 Girl
Madam Hou shouted excitedly: "Listening to this loud voice, it must be my grandson."
"My Xie family has an heir."
The door opened and the midwife came out holding the baby.
Madam Hou went forward and said happily, "Let me see my grandson."
It was Qin Shuyu who noticed that the midwife's face looked strange, and she keenly sensed something.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
The midwife spoke tremblingly:
"Reporting to the old lady and madam, the concubine inside gave birth to a daughter."
boom! ! !
Old Madam Hou took a few steps back as if struck by lightning. She was hit once again and could only rely on the support of the nanny behind her to avoid falling down.
"No, the voice is so loud, it must be my grandson."
"You must be mistaken."
Qin Shuyu went forward and lifted a corner of the swaddling clothes to check. Sure enough, it was really a girl...
Su Zhu also saw it and his face was full of disappointment.
Qin Shuyu didn't say anything, nor did he show it on his face, but he couldn't help sighing in his heart.
She arranged for the maids to take Old Madam Hou back to her room to rest, and arranged everything that followed before going to see Aunt Man.
When Aunt Man found out it was a daughter, she burst into tears despite her weak body after giving birth.
"I'm so useless, how could I have given birth to a daughter?"
"Wow, wow, wow, ma'am, please don't chase me away."
"I will listen to whatever you say from now on. Please leave me a bite to eat."
Qin Shuyu rubbed his brows and said in a gentle voice:
"You just gave birth, don't think too much about it."
"The government is not so tight on money that we have to deduct your monthly allowance."
After saying that, Qin Shuyu stood up and comforted Aunt Man. She then had to go and see what Xie Yuchuan was doing, fearing that there would be another commotion.
"Thank you, ma'am."
"I will listen to you from now on."
Aunt Man has now figured out who the real boss in the mansion is.
Now that she was pregnant and only gave birth to a daughter, she had no choice but to hold Qin Shuyu's thigh tightly.
At this moment, there were a few tears hanging on her pale and bloodless face, making her look pitiful.
Qin Shuyu simply replied: "Behave yourself from now on, and I will ensure that you will have no worries in your life. From now on, the child will be raised in my name and will be my legitimate daughter in the future."
"Thank you ma'am."
Aunt Man stood up to salute Qin Shuyu, but Qin Shuyu quickly signaled with her eyes to the maid serving Aunt Man to stop her.
After leaving the courtyard where Aunt Man lived, Qin Shuyu came to the courtyard where Xie Yuchuan lived.
Before I entered, I heard Xie Yuchuan's furious voice coming from inside.
"It's really useless!"
"I've been fed and served you for so long, but you can't even give birth to a son."
"Why should such a person stay in the mansion? Just go to Zhuangzi and let him fend for himself."
The servants were hesitant and dared not respond. All the servants in the mansion knew that they dared not act on their own until Qin Shuyu spoke.
Even though it was the Marquis's order, Qin Shuyu was the real boss in the Marquis' Mansion.
Qin Shuyu looked up at the sky. It was a deep blue sky, extremely clear, extremely peaceful, and extremely vast.
I wonder if Shen Wei can see such a blue sky at the border?
She had heard Xie Yuchuan say before that at the border one could only see the vast desert, with the sky dyed red with yellow and crimson, and no clear colors like this could be seen.
Qin Shuyu thought about the conversation between them before Shen Wei left.
Shen Wei asked her what she would do if Aunt Man gave birth to a daughter?
Qin Shuyu hesitated at the time. She pursed her lips and said, the doctor said that Aunt Man is pregnant with a boy, so it should be a boy.
