Qingliu smiled, saluted again and withdrew.

The nurse pleaded guilty, and went to eat the big-budget pork knuckle peanut soup.

Although the wet nurse didn't eat in front of the master, but after all it was in the same room, the fragrance still wafted over vaguely.

Ren Yaoqi tilted her head, looked up from the book, and glanced at the nurse.

"Is there any medicinal material in the soup?" Ren Yaoqi asked after the wet nurse had finished eating and the dishes were removed.

The wet nurse was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's because some milk-promoting herbs are added in it, but the cooks in the mansion are so skilled that they can hardly taste the smell of medicine, Miss Biao has a really sharp nose."

Ren Yaoyin also looked at Ren Yaoqi in surprise: "I didn't smell the medicine either."

Ren Yaoqi smiled: "I was ill for a long time before, and I had to take medicine with three meals a day, so I have a deep memory of the taste of medicinal materials."

This explanation is very reasonable, so no one expressed surprise.

Ren Yaoqi continued to turn over the book with her head down, but she always felt a little strange in her heart.

The afternoon passed peacefully, but Ren Yaoqi felt that there was an invisible undercurrent turbulent beneath the calm surface.

Ren Shijiayou came back when it was time, and hurried to see his son as soon as he entered the house, and felt relieved when he saw his son sleeping in the cradle in good condition.

When she changed her clothes, washed her hands and face and came back, she stared at the baby in the cradle for a long time.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Ren Yaoyin also sensed that there was something wrong with Ren Shijia.

Ren Shijia smiled wryly, shook his head, and sat down on the kang, "I went to Lei's house today, and I felt really pitiful when I saw that child from Lei's family."

Ren Yaoqi remembered the eccentric little girl Lei Pan'er she saw at the Lin family.

"Not long after she was born, her mother died. She has been following her great-grandmother. Now even her great-grandmother has gone, and she doesn't know what to do in the future. Today at Lei's house, she ran over and asked where my great-grandmother had gone. My eyes were wide open at the time. Red." As a mother, Ren Shijia also has a motherly heart for other people's children.

The servant girl comforted her and said, "Madam, don't be too sad, Mr. Lei's family will always marry again, and someone will take care of it at that time."

Ren Shijia shook his head: "Lei's family mainly observes filial piety, and I'm afraid it will take a long time to marry a wife. And even if a bride comes in, after all, she didn't come out of her stomach, after all, there is still a layer of separation. In case of encounter If it's a powerful one, then it's even more..."

Ren Shijia paused, then looked at his son in the cradle: "So even if it's for the sake of the child, I want to be healthy. It's not easy for a child without a mother."

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort the sentimental aunt.

Fortunately, Lin Cen woke up at this time, and it was time to breastfeed again. Ren Shijia rushed to hug his son, and instantly forgot the worries before.

The nurse took the baby and unbuttoned the clothes to nurse the baby.

After talking for a while, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin stood up and said goodbye. When Ren Shijia came back, they could also retire.

Before going out, Ren Yaoqi glanced back inadvertently, just in time to see the wet nurse finished feeding the baby, and while closing her skirt, she covered her mouth with her hand and yawned in a lethargic manner.

When she walked out the door, she could still hear Ren Shijia's voice happily coaxing the child from the room, Ren Yaoqi's footsteps involuntarily stopped again.

Ren Yaoyin, who was walking beside her, looked back at her: "Fifth sister?"

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while: "I'm going to visit my grandfather's house in the future, and I think I still have some things to discuss with my aunt. Fourth sister, let's go back first."

Ren Yaoyin nodded and left.

Ren Yaoqi turned around and went back to the room.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi go and come back, Ren Shijia was a little surprised: "Qi'er? Is there anything else?"

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Well, I want to discuss something with my aunt."

Ren Shijia glanced at his son who was yawning after eating and drinking, smiled and patted the kang and asked Ren Yaoqi to sit there: "Okay, you guys step back first."

Seeing Ren Yaoqi's expression, Ren Shijia thought that she had something to ask for help or encountered some problems, so she dispatched the maid and the child's nanny first, leaving only one confidant maid to hold the child .

"Is there anything I can help with?" Ren Shijia smiled sincerely, looking at Ren Yaoqi with warm eyes.

Ren Yaoqi first casually talked to Ren Shijia about the personnel arrangements for going out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and asked her to help her consider whether the gifts she prepared for her grandparents' house were suitable or not.

Ren Shijia answered all of them.

Until the end Ren Yaoqi said: "Auntie, there is one more thing."

Ren Shijia nodded and waited patiently for her to speak.

Ren Yaoqi was a little hesitant. In fact, she just felt that something was wrong, so she was a little skeptical. She was not sure and had no basis for it. But for a child who couldn't protect himself, a small negligence might cause fatal.

Ren Shijia could see the importance Ren Shijia attached to this son. And Ren Shijia is different from Ren's family, she is a kind-hearted person with a pure heart. Even if Ren Yaoqi didn't like most of the Ren family and hated her grandparents, she would not take anger on innocent people.

"The wet nurse said Brother Cen is also very well-behaved at night, and never wakes up in the middle of the night."

Ren Shijia was taken aback for a moment, as if she didn't expect that Ren Yaoqi wanted to talk to her about her son's problems, but what she likes most now is to talk about children with others. Hearing this, she nodded and looked at the child with affection: "Just born It was also noisy when I came down, but recently it has become more and more obedient, and I can always sleep until dawn."

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help frowning: "Does such a big child love to sleep so much?"

Ren Shijia thought for a while, and became a little uncertain: "Speaking of it, it seems that other people's children can't sleep as well as him. But I heard that children sleep because they want to grow their bodies."

Ren Yaoqi nodded, and pondered: "I heard from my mother that the food used by breastfeeding people will affect the milk, and then affect the baby. Could it be that there are things that make people sleepy in the food that the nurse eats?" ?”

Ren Shijia was stunned for a moment, and then denied it intuitively: "Is this impossible? The recipes that the nanny eats every day are prescribed by me, and those things come according to the prescription, and the recipe was copied by the mother." mine……"

Speaking of this, Ren Shijia suddenly thought of a possibility and couldn't help but shut up. The prescription given by the old lady Ren was fine, but it didn't mean that the food imported by the nanny was fine. What if someone tampers with the wet nurse's food?

Thinking of this, Ren Shijia's face turned pale, and he immediately got up to look at the child in the maid's arms. Lin Cen had just finished feeding and fell asleep again, breathing steadily and sleeping very well.

"How long has he slept today?" Ren Shijia was a little anxious.

That maid was Chun Lan, the eldest maid who stayed to take care of the child today, and said, "I've been sleeping, except that I woke up once because of bed-wetting." The maid was also a little scared at this time, her voice trembling.

Ren Shijia hurriedly picked up the child and called him in a low voice: "Brother Cen? Brother Cen?..." The voice gradually became louder, but the child still fell asleep without caring.

Ren Yaoqi hurriedly walked over: "Auntie, don't worry. This is just a guess, don't mess yourself up."

Ren Shijia's eyes were red with fright, at this moment the curtain was lifted and someone walked in.

Ren Shijia looked up, as if he had found the backbone, he immediately walked over with his son in his arms: "Master, look at your son, why does he always sleep, is there something wrong?"

Lin Kun took the child, and then took a look at Ren Yaoqi, comforting his bewildered wife: "Don't worry, I will find out. The child...he will be fine."

Ren Yaoqi frowned because of Lin Kun's look. She was wary of this uncle. Lin Kun hides too deeply, and sometimes uses unscrupulous means to achieve his goals.

And judging by his reaction, he might have heard what she said to Ren Shijia before.

Ren Shijia finally calmed down under Lin Kun's constant comfort, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but sigh in her heart seeing her like this.

"Qi'er, why do you think there is something wrong with the nanny's diet?" Lin Kun didn't hide that he heard what they said, and called her by the name Ren Shijia called her.

Ren Yaoqi bowed her head and said: "I saw Brother Cen always sleeping, so I asked, and the nurse said that the child was lethargic. Later, I saw that the nurse had added some medicinal herbs to the food, and the nurse didn't seem to be very energetic. Well, I feel a little weird."

The maid standing beside her also said: "I also remembered what Miss Biao said. The wet nurse has always been a little sleepy these days. I suspected that she would sneak away at night to gamble with the concierge's mother-in-law to keep an eye on her." After a few days, she found out that she went to bed early every day and shouldn't be sleepy."

Ren Shijia didn't care about the presence of this junior, Ren Yaoqi, and hugged the child in Lin Kun's arms, shaking her lips and said, "Go and invite the doctor, please come in and have a look at the mansion. If...if someone really prescribed medicine... It's all my fault, I was preventing people from attacking the children but I forgot to prevent them from attacking the nanny."

Although Lin Kun's complexion was also very ugly, Ren Yaoqi even saw his hand on his side clenched into a fist with blue veins on it, but his face was still calm.

"Okay, trust me, nothing will happen. Leave it to me, and I will give you and the child an explanation." Lin Kun's voice was a little hoarse, and the calmness and determination in it made Ren Shijia feel at ease again.

Ren Yaoqi knew that she had already done what she had to do, there was no need to stay here, and Lin Kun, the father, would do the rest.

"Aunt and Uncle, then I'll go back to the house first." Ren Yaoqi said.

Lin Kun looked over, softened his expression and said, "Okay, thank you very much, Qi'er."

Ren Shijia said with red eyes: "My good boy, you should go back first."

Ren Yaoqi pursed her lips: "These are just guesses. If I guess wrong, I hope my uncle and aunt will not blame me." Ren Yaoqi saluted and withdrew.

Outside, the rain had completely stopped. Although Ren Shijia's courtyard is large, the boxy sky above his head is still cramped and oppressive, just like the courtyards in other inner courtyards. RS
