Chapter 522 The Original Wife Who Was Replaced with a Daughter or a Son 3
"Why are you crying again?" Aunt Xiao frowned irritably. "Crying, crying, crying, it's just endless. Why is the child born by that bitch Jiang Chunxi so annoying?"
"If you feel annoyed, then let the nanny take the child to the wing room at the back of the yard," Wu Baichuan said with annoyance, "It's your own yard anyway, you can do whatever you want, and don't worry about any gossip."
As for the gossip, it was naturally the gossip of an unkind mother. Although he believed that Aunt Xiao would not care, Wu Baichuan was still reluctant to let his beloved woman be subject to unnecessary gossip because of the bastard born by Jiang Chunxi.
"You don't feel bad," Aunt Xiao poked Wu Baichuan's chest with her hand, "After all, she is your daughter. Are you willing to let your own daughter live in the back wing? You know, the back wing is the servant's room after all. Are you really willing to let your own daughter live as a servant?"
Wu Baichuan grabbed Aunt Xiao's hand that was poking his chest and kissed it: "Why should I be reluctant? In my heart, only the child you gave birth to is my own flesh and blood. I don't care about the child of that bitch Jiang Chunxi at all."
As he spoke, Wu Baichuan kissed Aunt Xiao on the forehead: "You! Don't test me with such words again in the future. Don't you know how I feel about you?"
"I can't let you marry me as my legal wife. I already feel bad enough. How can I have any blood relationship with Jiang Chunxi's son?"
"That's more like it," Aunt Xiao said with a sweet laugh, "It's all your mother's fault. If she hadn't arranged a marriage for you and Jiang Chunxi long ago, you wouldn't have to marry that bitch Jiang Chunxi. Not only did you make me a concubine, but you also had to act like a loving couple with Jiang Chunxi. In order to confuse that bitch, she didn't dare to show too much favor to me, making the servants in the mansion think that I was not favored and that Jiang Chunxi, that bitch, was the one you loved the most."
Aunt Xiao hated the old lady. At the beginning, the old lady wanted to marry her to a scholar from a poor family. She said nice things about her, saying that she would give her more dowry, and when the scholar passed the imperial examination and became an official, she would have a good life.
Bah! Aunt Xiao almost scolded the old lady at that time. She grew up in the Wu family with luxurious clothes and delicious food. Why should she marry a poor scholar and suffer? She also said that she would give her more dowry. If she really believed the old lady's nonsense, then her whole life would be like soaking in bitter water, and she would never have any hope in her life.
After all, the saying "It is better to be a concubine of a rich family than a wife of a poor family" is not just a casual remark. She is not so stupid as to spend her whole life accompanying a man through hardships, and then end up being a despised wife.
Fortunately, she had seduced Wu Baichuan behind the old lady's back a long time ago, making Wu Baichuan completely devoted to her. The two of them simply made it a fait accompli, which prevented the old lady from marrying her off.
"After all, she's not my biological mother. Can I expect her to put herself in my shoes and think about my lifelong happiness?" Speaking of the old lady, Wu Baichuan was annoyed. "Okay, let's stop talking about that old hag and think about giving our daughter a good name!"
The old lady returned to the Wu Mansion at noon the next day. As soon as she arrived at the mansion, she went to Jiang Chunxi's yard without even having time to wash up.
"This child is so beautiful," the old lady said with a smile while holding her granddaughter. "She will definitely be a beauty when she grows up. This is the first time I have seen a child who is so beautiful right after birth."
Then the old lady handed her granddaughter to the nurse, and then looked at Jiang Chunxi with concern and said, "Seeing that you are safe and sound, I can finally put my heart at ease. Since you became pregnant, I have been going up the mountain to the temple every day to pray for you, asking the Buddha to bless you to give birth to the child safely."
At this point, the old lady's eyes became red, thinking back to when she gave birth to her son, not only did she almost die, but the child also died as soon as he was born.
So when Chunxi was pregnant, the old lady was both happy and worried. The shadow of the difficult delivery that year was deeply engraved in her heart, and the old lady was worried that Chunxi would also have a difficult delivery. Therefore, since Chunxi became pregnant, the old lady went to the temple on the mountain more and more frequently when she was at the farm, in order to pray to the Bodhisattva for protection so that Chunxi could give birth to the child safely.
"Thank you, mother," Jiang Chunxi said to the old lady with a smile, "If you hadn't prayed sincerely to the Bodhisattva, my delivery would definitely not have been so smooth."
"That's because your child is in good health," the old lady quickly wiped her moist eyes and said to Jiang Chunxi with a smile, "By the way, have you chosen a name for the child?"
"Not yet?" Jiang Chunxi said, "How about mother give the child a name? You are the child's grandmother, it would be most appropriate for you to give the child a name."
The old lady was very tempted, but she shook her head in the end: "Forget it! This is your and Baichuan's first child, and the child's name should be chosen by you and your wife."
"What are you talking about, mother?" Jiang Chunxi pretended to be unhappy. "It is a blessing for the child to be named by you, an elder. Baichuan and I are only happy. So why would mother refuse? Don't you want to name the child?"
"You! I really don't know what to say to you," the old lady said with a smile, "I am naturally happy and willing to give the child a name, but I am afraid that you and your wife will feel uncomfortable, right?"
In fact, she was worried that her son would have opinions, but the old lady didn't want to talk about her son's conflicts in front of her daughter-in-law.
"Okay! Since you said so, I will name the child," the old lady thought for a while before speaking, "How about Wenxian? Wen means literary talent and Xian means dignified and elegant. I hope the child will grow up to be a lady of noble family with brilliant literary talent and a kind heart."
"Wenxian," Jiang Chunxi muttered these two words, and then laughed happily, "This is a good name, I will use these two words in the name of the child."
The ungrateful adopted daughter of the original owner in her previous life naturally did not have these two words as her name, but was named by Wu Baichuan himself. It goes without saying that this was a name decided upon by him and Aunt Xiao.
And now it is Jiang Chunxi's turn, she will naturally not give Wu Baichuan another chance to decide on the name of the child.
The old lady sat for a while and then left. After all, Jiang Chunxi had just given birth yesterday and was still very weak, so the old lady naturally would not stay too long.
