Chapter 226 Jiang's mother comes to visit Xiangyun
"Miss Yun, my brother was so well-behaved while feeding today!"
Zijuan walked quickly into the inner room with a happy look on her face, and saw Xiangyun who looked depressed.
She leaned over and smiled and told Xiangyun:
"This little guy is surprisingly obedient today. He opens and closes his little mouth, sucking on the milk with big gulps. He eats it with such relish!"
However, Xiangyun still had her head drooping at this moment. Her originally bright and charming face was now covered with gloom, and she lay quietly and lifelessly on the bed.
When she heard Zijuan mention the baby's breastfeeding, she reacted slightly. She forced herself to cheer up and managed to force a faint smile from the corner of her mouth.
Said softly:
"In that case, after my brother finishes feeding, bring him in quickly so I can see him."
When Zijuan saw Xiangyun finally speak, she nodded hurriedly.
She turned around and hurried to the outer room, her eyes gently falling on the little baby who was concentrating on breastfeeding.
This kid is really handsome!
Those big watery eyes were like two crystal clear black gems, rolling around.
That little mouth looks exactly like Xiangyun's.
And that fair skin is as delicate and smooth as mutton-fat white jade, making people want to touch it.
Soon, the wet nurse had finished feeding the child.
Zijuan carefully took the child and looked at the baby smacking its lips, she loved it very much.
Afterwards, she came to Xiangyun again with the delicate baby in her arms, full of joy.
As soon as she entered the room, Zijuan could not wait to get close to Xiangyun, smiled and softly called out to the child in her arms:
"Brother, come and let your mother hug you!"
Xiangyun took the child calmly, held him in her arms, and looked at him gently. His adorable little appearance seemed to melt people's hearts.
Zijuan lowered her head slightly, her eyes gently falling on the child, a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she turned her head to look at Xiangyun beside her, and said softly:
"Miss Yun, my dear, it's been quite a while since he was born. According to custom, it's time for him to have his third bath!
Because my brother was weak, this matter was delayed before.
But now, we have to hurry up and find some people who are both blessed with good fortune and longevity to hold a third-day celebration for me!
All the necessary etiquette must not be neglected!"
After hearing this, Xiangyun expressed her complete agreement with Zijuan and decided to do everything according to her advice.
Upon seeing this, Zijuan turned around and whispered with Xueyan.
The two of them discussed going to the village to find two people with good fortune and longevity to hold a third-day bath for the child.
At the same time, they also planned to find someone named Liu to cut the baby's hair, and to prepare a banquet on the same day to celebrate properly.
Just as the two were talking excitedly, they suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the house:
"Miss Yun, are you home?"
Upon hearing the voice, Zijuan and Xueyan quickly stood up and prepared to go answer the door.
However, before they could take a step, the person who called them had already rushed into the house.
Looking closely, the person who came was Jiang Yuchen's mother, and she was followed closely by a smart little girl.
Jiang's mother came in with a faint smile on her face, supported by a little maid. She was about to say a few words to Xiangyun, but she saw the baby lying on the bed.
She looked at everything in front of her in disbelief.
Mother Jiang opened her mouth in surprise. She came to the bed and asked in confusion, "What is this, Yun'er, what is this..."
Xiangyun picked up the child and ignored him. Zijuan could only smile and pull Jiang's mother aside, saying softly, "Madam, the child is born.
To avoid suspicion, please don't come here casually!"
Unexpectedly, Jiang's mother seemed to remember something. She slapped her forehead and said softly:
"No, how could this child be born when he's only 8 months old?"
Zijuan smiled and said, "The child was born prematurely and the situation was urgent. There's nothing we can do about it!"
After Zijuan finished speaking, she winked at Xueyan, who quickly stepped forward, took Madam Jiang's hand, and said with a smile:
“Madam, our girl still needs to recuperate after the baby is born, and my brother also needs to have a good rest.
You should go back!"
Jiang's mother secretly thought that the child was born just a few months after she got married!
It seems that this child is really from our Jiang family!
No, I have to see the kids before I can go back.
Jiang's mother could only say to Xiangyun with a smile on her face: "Miss Yun, you have suffered a lot to give birth to this child!"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and tremblingly tried to hug the child in Xiangyun's arms.
However, Xiangyun saw through her thoughts at a glance, so she held the child tightly and refused to let her see it.
Jiang's mother tried several times and said all the nice things she could, but Xiangyun refused to let her see the child.
Suddenly, there was a "thump" sound, and Jiang's mother suddenly knelt on the ground, begging Xiangyun with tears in her voice:
"Miss Yun, I know that our Jiang Mansion has let you down.
But my son Yuchen ran away from home and there has been no news from him since.
Just let me see the child. If it's not ours, I'll give up and never bother you again!"
After saying this, she pressed her head tightly against the ground, indicating that she would not get up unless Xiangyun agreed.
Zijuan and Xueyan hurried to help her, but she just couldn't get up from her knees.
And the little girl who came with her also knelt on the ground and couldn't get up.
But Xiangyun was determined not to show it to her.
Xiangyun secretly winked at Zijuan, who understood and quietly took the child to find the wet nurse.
Unexpectedly, Jiang's mother saw Zijuan holding the child and about to leave.
She stood up suddenly, walked quickly to Zijuan, and said crying:
"Miss Zijuan, please let me hug you for just a moment!
Just hug me and I'll leave. I won't bother with this child anymore!"
After saying that, he took out the hairpin on his head, bent it hard with his hands, and the hairpin broke instantly.
She said loudly:
"I, Madam Jiang, will keep my word and never break it!
If I break my promise, I will be like this hairpin, shattered to pieces, and everything will be destroyed!"
Zijuan could only look at Xiangyun helplessly. Xiangyun was also helpless at this time, so she could only nod, suggesting Zijuan and Xueyan to surround Mrs. Jiang closely.
Mother Jiang quickly found a towel to wipe her hands, then gently took the child from Zijuan's arms.
The moment she saw the child, she couldn't bear it anymore!
The child's big eyes looked like they were carved from Yu Chen's face!
She burst into tears instantly, looked at the child excitedly, and said softly: "My child, do you know how long I have been waiting for you?
You are our only blood!"
Before Jiang's mother finished speaking, Zijuan came to her side and said with a smile:
“Ma’am, the child has been seen, and it’s getting late.
Brother and Miss Yun both need to rest!"
After saying that, he took the child from Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang was very reluctant to let the child go, but now the child was in someone else's hands, and she couldn't take him back without complete certainty.
She could only smile slightly, suppressing her reluctance, and said to Xiangyun with a smile: "Miss Yun, take good care of yourself after the confinement period, and let the wet nurse take good care of the child!"
After saying that, he asked the maid to drop a handkerchief, covered his face with his hands, turned around and left.
Zijuan and Xiangyun were really shocked by how quickly she left.
Mrs. Jiang left with her maid as quick as a gust of wind.
Because she knew that if she didn't leave now, she would be unable to resist taking the child back, and the child was too young at the moment.
The only temporary solution is to wait until the child is a little older and in better health, and then find a way to snatch him away.
She was just walking forward in a hurry, but she bumped into Mr. Yu who came to visit Xiangyun at the door.
