Time Travel and Love

Chapter 492 What is youthful vigor?

In Luotang Courtyard, Mo Jiangche, with a pale face and wearing an outer coat, sat on the armchair in the main hall. In the room, Dong's cries of pain became louder and louder, and maids and servants were coming in and out carrying basins of blood.

Xu, pregnant, also sat in the main hall. She had only asked the court doctor and the maids to go to the inner chamber to see Dong. She poured some hot tea for Mo Jiangche and said, "Don't worry, my husband. Everything will be fine."

Mo Jiangche wasn't worried about Dong. He just wanted her to be alive so she wouldn't cause trouble for her father. He also felt a little sorry for the child. He had been reckless, not considering Dong could be pregnant.

Chu Qingmeng followed Chunhe to Luotangyuan and understood what was going on on the way. It was inappropriate for Mo Liujin to appear in such an occasion, so no matter how reluctant she was, she had to let her follow Chunhe.

As I stepped into the main hall, I saw Mo Jiangche sitting there in disheveled clothes.

"Mother." Mrs. Xu stood up first. "I'm sorry for disturbing you. It's your fault."

Chu Qingmeng waved her hand to signal her not to be polite, "Sit down, Chunhe, go see what's going on."

Mo Jiangche also stood up and knelt down, his tone a little awkward, "Mother..."

Chu Qingmeng glanced at him speechlessly. How could this child, who was usually so nice in front of her, suddenly turn into a beast? He was like a stud, so disgusting. Without saying anything else, she made him kneel.

Seeing that Chu Qingmeng was angry, Xu was about to speak up to persuade him when Chunhe came out.

"Miss, the court doctor said that Dong was injured when she saw Dahong. Her life was saved, but the child was not. In the future... there will be no possibility of having children." Chun He looked at Mo Jiangche kneeling, feeling a little distressed. After all, he was the child she had raised since he was a child, so it was not a big mistake. She couldn't help but persuade Chu Qingmeng, "Miss, let the second young master stand up. He is just young and impulsive, and he doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. There is no need to punish him."

"..." Chu Qingmeng was speechless and laughed. "Young and full of vigor? Zexiao is already eight years old this year! Mo Jiangche, I can't control you if you take a concubine. Your father doesn't allow me to do it, so I won't care. But you can't do this!"

"Mother, I know I was wrong. I didn't expect her... to be pregnant..."

"Alright." Chu Qingmeng interrupted him. "You're looking at me, right? We're all adults, so who doesn't know what's going on? If you hadn't been so rough, she wouldn't have been like this."

Chu Qingmeng felt a little embarrassed after saying this. Looking at Jiang Che's red ears, he sighed helplessly. What the hell is going on?! He took a deep breath and slowed down his tone. "I know you don't like her, and I don't like her either, but you can't use this kind of thing to torture her. If you find her annoying, just let her count rice grains or copy scriptures in the house. Keep her busy. Now that she's injured like this, you... Sigh."

Xu looked at Chu Qingmeng with a hint of surprise. She had never imagined that counting rice grains and copying scriptures was a method her mother-in-law had devised to torture people. This method... was somewhat like a child playing house...

Mo Jiangche felt wronged. Even Grand Tutor Dong had to intervene in his decision about whether he was a good mother or not. He was furious. "Mother... I will always support her. But this happened for a reason. I took it out on her in a moment of desperation."

"..." Chu Qingmeng looked at him with a puzzled expression. "Aren't you? You Mos are all seriously ill! How many of you are normal?! She's your concubine to begin with. If you don't support her, who else do you expect?! Should I support her?"

He opened his mouth again and again, wanting to curse, but found that every word he said would involve him. He closed his eyes and said helplessly, "Be nice to Dong from now on...be normal! Although her personality may not be pleasant, she is in your courtyard after all. Just treat her like an ordinary concubine."

"Yes, mother." Mo Jiangche responded.

Chu Qingmeng glanced at him with disdain, tapping the table twice with his fingertips, "Dress neatly, what does it look like?"

Mo Jiangche lowered his head to straighten his clothes. Within two quarters of an hour, the palace doctor came out to reply, "Princess, Second Young Master, Second Madam, Miss Dong's bleeding has stopped and she has taken the medicine. She will be fine after a few days of recuperation. However, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to give birth."

"...Well, you can go now." Chu Qingmeng waved his hand to signal the court doctor to leave. He rubbed his temples, a little surprised at his own cold-bloodedness, but now was not the time to talk about this. "Chunhe, this matter..."

Chun He knew that his daughter was not good at handling matters in the inner chamber, so he said, "My daughter, if you become a concubine, you have given up the rest of your life. Concubines are good at business, not to mention the matters in the bedroom. Outsiders can't say anything. After you marry, you must obey your husband. The husband's family has the right to handle anything."

Chu Qingmeng thought for a moment, "Feiying, go to the front yard and tell Xinglong to come. The second young master has misbehaved and will be lashed thirty times. Chunhe, you go visit Madam Dong in person with some things and explain the matter to her. Remember to bring a bag of Yuexia Cooking Snow."

Chun He understood Chu Qingmeng's intention after a moment's thought. As she said, it was just some private affairs. Who could say anything? Old Madam Dong and Dong Mingzhu had always been at odds. Even if she knew about this, she wouldn't delve into it. Moreover, the young lady had punished the Second Young Master. Even if Grand Tutor Dong knew about it later, he wouldn't be able to say anything.
