Chapter 291: Did I make a mistake

Ye Jinrong had been hiding near marquis house. When she saw a servant girl calling for a doctor, a big stone fell to the ground in her heart. Fortunately, her elder sister didn’t angry with Bao and was willing to call for a doctor for Bao.

Wasn’t A Lian taken away by the government? How did Xia Chunyu just get A Lian out?

Ye Jinrong was not a fool. She suddenly understood why. No wonder elder sister knew everything and there was spy around her.

However, it was no longer meaningful to pursue these issues now, she was somewhat fortunate that elder sister and her husband didn’t break off, so Bao could still find a refuge.

Bao was safe. Ye Jinrongwas started to worried about Liujiang again. Was he still possible to get out this time? She didn`t consider herself at all, where to stay tonight? Would she starve to death for she had no money?

A Lian recognized Bao at a glance. After Bao was born, she held her most often except second miss. She still had feelings for Bao and missed her very much.

After the doctor diagnosed, he did not prescribe medicine, saying that the child was so young that it was not good to take medicine, it was just a little cold. Mixing garlic with sugar to feed the child and spread the cold out. That was indigenous method. If it didn’t work, he will prescribe medicine tomorrow.

Xia Chunyu sent the doctor out of the house. When he came back, he saw that the doors and windows were tightly closed. Yaoyao and A Lian bathed Bao in the clean room, and laughter came from inside time to time.

Xia Chunyu absented for a moment and suddenly laughed. With a child, the atmosphere in the family was different, but it was a pity that it was not he and Yaoyao’s child.

Qiao Xi asked for some clothes that the young lady wore when she was a child from the big housewife. Soon Ye Jiayao came out with a delicious, tender Bao.

“Chunyu, you see how lovely Bao is. You see, she is sucking fingers …”Ye Jiayao had been conquered by the baby in such a short time and liked here very much.

Xia Chunyu leaned in and saw Bao with her eyes closed and her mouth smashed her fist as if she had not eaten enough.

“You little greedy cat …” Xia Chunyu laughed.

Looking at such a white and lovely child, his heart became soft. Looking at Yaoyao, her eyes were soft and watery, full of the brilliance of maternal love. Who said that the woman who became a mother was the most beautiful, and Xia Chunyu could not understand it before, but understood it at the moment.

Ye Jiayao said with a smile: “Such a small child has only one task. Eat and sleep well and try to grow up. Of course she likes to eat!”

Xia Chunyu looked at Yaoyao in a funny way. Yaoyao spoke softly to the child for fear of waking the child.

A Lian and Qiao Xi packed up bathtubs and came out of the clean room.

“First miss, let me take care of Bao! In the past, Bao was also cared by me. ” A Lian said.

Ye Jiayao carefully put Bao in her arms and said, “Then you’ll come to take care of her, and when second miss comes to take Bao away, will you leave again?”

A Lian did not think about where to go for a while, and could not stop worrying about Bao, so she obeyed first miss’s arrangement.

Ye Jiayao asked Qiao Xi to take A Lian to settle down and called Song Qi to run to the pastry room tomorrow morning and ask Jiang Yue to get some milk. The baby was so small that it was time to grow up, without breast milk, it was better to drink milk than to eat rice paste.

Then he called Xiangtao to find the soft cotton cloth, and they cut it into two feet square and used it as a diaper for Bao.

Xia Chunyu watched her busy and attentive to Jinrong’s children, thinking that if she became a mother, she must be a very great mother.

Just, when would they have children?

This problem made her mind a bit heavy. Yaoyao had been recuperating her body and had been taking medicine for almost half a year. Although the imperial doctor lee said the hope was small, it still exists….

Or he should work harder and have a better chance of sowing and harvesting.

At last, when Yaoyao was finished, the two men were lying on the bed. Ye Jiayao sighed faintly and said, “Chunyu, do you think I’ve done too much to Jinrong?”

Xia Chunyu held his head in one hand and buckled her waist in the other, with a gentle smile in her eyes: “Why do you think so?”

Ye Jiayao rubbed against his arms, said: “I just feel sorry for Bao. Look at her, she’s hungry, crying profusely and still ill. If Jinrong didn’t give Bao to me, I don’t know what the consequences are … the child is innocent.”

“But when I do that, I didn’t consider Bao at all; just wanted to severely punish Jinrong.”

Xia Chunyu hugged her and comforted her: “Jinrong should be punished and you didn’t do anything wrong. Even if you don’t do it, I won’t let her get away with. She is the one to blame. As for Bao, if you feel guilty about her and like her, you can look after her more, I won’t object.”

“Well, I haven’t seen Bao before. The child is really cute and clever …”Ye Jiayao thought that Bao’s heart was about to melt, perhaps because she was too eager to have a child, but she didn’t get it all the time, so she especially liked the child.

“Our children will be more lovely in the future,” Xia Chunyu chuckled.

Those words made Ye Jiayao uneasy. What if she won`t? What if she could never be a mother?

The heart gave a hard twitch, liked being pinched by an invisible hand.

In this case, her life would not be perfect. How could Jing’ an Heir-son Lord, the future duke, have no descendent? Even if Chunyu didn’t mind, will You mind? Will the duke mind? At that time, will they force Chunyu to take concubinage?

When the mood was depressed, it was easy to think of bad things and have a vicious chain reaction.

Did she want to share her favorite person with other women? She couldn’t do it, it would be worse than killing her.

Seeing her gradually dim look, Xia Chunyu was very distressed. He kissed her eyebrow and whispered in her ear, “Don’t worry, we will certainly have a baby.”

There was another sentence that he didn’t say, even if he won’t have a baby, he would accept the fact because to him, she was more important than anyone or anything.

His hand slid into her inner garment, especially tender, touching her smooth and delicate skin inch by inch, also soothing her melancholy.

At dawn, Ye Jiayao got up and went to see Bao first. The little guy was sleeping soundly and she ordered Song Qi to get milk quickly so that Bao could wake up and drink delicious milk.

Then she went out of the office and found Lin Changchun. She remembered Lin Changchun’s daughter opened an embroidery workshop, she didn`t mean to help Ye Jinrong. She just hoped that Ye Jinrong could settle down as soon as possible and earn her own living. She knew her temper and she knew Jinrong wouldn’t go back to Yangzhou to take refuge in Ye Binghuai, let alone let Yangzhou’s sisters know that she had been down and out to such a situation.

A desperate woman was easy to go astray. All she did was for the good of Bao. She didn’t want Bao to have a worse mother. She hoped Ye Jinrong could turn over a new leaf this time and be a steadfast person.

Today was the Mid – Autumn Festival, many businesses were closed down and there were not many pedestrians on the road, which seemed a bit depressed, but everyone’s face was full of happiness. Today was a day of family reunion. What was happier than family reunion?

Ye Jinrong shrank in a daze walking on the street, didn’t know where to go. The world was big, but there was no room for her, every family was reunited; only she was fragmented.

Last night, she hid in the neighborhood of marquis house to spend the night. The security in that area was better; otherwise it would be too dangerous for her to sleep alone on the street.

She shuddered at the thought that she would spend every night like this.

One day or two was ok, but if too long, it was afraid she would really become a beggar in the long run.

In the face of poverty and hunger, no dignity was worth mentioning.

“Get a ride …” A carriage drove past, and Ye Jinrong gave way to it dully.

However, the carriage stopped, a maid came out of the carriage, put up a notice on the street, and murmured, “I really don`t understand miss. Why must I put up a notice today? Today is Mid – Autumn Festival. There are few people on the street. Where can I find an embroidering lady with good sewing skills …”

Ye Jinrong looked up and saw that the notice said Ruyi Embroidery Workshop had recruited embroiderers and tried them for a month, including food and shelter….

She had no intention of going to see the back, and the words “including food and shelter” had already made her happy, and indeed heaven never shuts one door.

She dared to ask, “Excuse me, this old sister …”

The maid looked at her from top to bottom and from bottom to top and said, “I look younger than you!”

Ye Jinrong quickly changed her tune: “This young sister, do you have any conditions for hiring embroidering lady?”

The maid said, “Of course there are conditions. Embroidery must be done well.”

Ye Jinrong was delighted and took out a handkerchief to show her: “I embroidered it myself. Look, can I get the job?”

The maid went over to look at it and asked, “Where are you from?”

“I’m from Yangzhou.”

The maid returned her handkerchief and said at leisure, “Ok, but in the end it will be up to our young lady to decide. What about go with me to see my young lady? Alas, what’s your name?”

“My name is Ye Jinrong.”

“Ok, come with me!” The maid got into the carriage.

Ye Jinrong thanked her and followed the carriage.

The maid sitting in the carriage breathed a sigh of relief and complained in her heart that the job was really not good. She was looking for this girl named Ye all over the street and had to take her to the embroidery shop without showing any trace. She did not know what she was doing. She had never heard of this woman before.

Ye Jinrong met Lin Ruyi, the owner of Ruyi Embroidery Workshop. She was successfully retained. Ye Jinrong almost wept with joy, and finally did not have to sleep on the streets again and could have enough food and clothing for three meals a day.

At this moment, she didn’t want to say that she was Yangzhou magistrate’s apple of the eye. Second miss of Ye would one day be reduced to becoming a embroider in embroidery workshop and would earn money to eat with her own hands. She only wanted to be satisfied with such treatment, and when she had saved enough money, she would bring Bao back.

After falling from a height to a valley, her mood was already different. The reality did not allow her to have any more big dreams and unrealistic fantasies. She could only walk one step at a time.

Before cooking dinner, Ye Jiayao got the news from the Lin’s family that she was already in the embroidery workshop, and a stone fell to the ground in Ye Jiayao’s heart.
