"Waa, waa …"

A loud and clear cry resounded in the room, carrying with it the power to cut through the night.

"It's born, it's born. Congratulations Madam, you have a Little Master."

Nanny Lin cut off the baby's umbilical cord and gave the child a simple wash before putting it into the cradle. She hugged the two of them and said, "Madam, Miss, look, Little Master is really cute."

Gu Ruolan weakly nodded, her pale face full of gratitude.

When she heard the loud cry of the child, she felt that all the pain, all the grievance, was worth it.

"Ya, this child seems to be especially close to young miss. Young miss, look, Little Master is smiling at you!" Nanny Lin's voice could not hide her surprise.

Luo Wuyou looked up and saw that the little baby was lying in the cradle. The amniotic fluid soaking his face was creased into a frown, it was not very pretty, but his pair of black and big eyes were abnormally bright. His chubby little hands waved in the air and actually shot her a cold smile.

That smile was like a ray of sunlight rising from the darkness, causing her heart to go soft for some unknown reason. Even her voice trembled a little: "Nanny Lin, let me hold him!"

Just as Nanny Lin gave the child to Luo Wuyou, just as she wanted to carefully remind her, she realized that the way Luo Wuyou held the child was actually extremely standard. She couldn't help but suppress her words.

Actually, Luo Wuyou was very nervous, it was just that after being in a high position for so many years, she had become accustomed to being able to keep a straight face.

She carefully took over the swaddling, allowing the baby's head to rest on the crook of her right arm. Her left hand was gently wrapped beneath the swaddling, while her left hand's five fingers were tightly grasping the swaddling cloth, afraid that she would accidentally drop the child. As for the child, when Luo Wuyou was holding him, he was actually laughing especially happily.

"Cluck, cluck …"

Luo Wuyou hung her head, her face brimming with a smile, but the depths of her eyes revealed indescribable sorrow. Her Ye, was also such a small, fleshy lump when he was just born, but she was still unable to protect him, causing him to die in the end …

Suppressing the pain in her heart, Luo Wuyou turned her head to the side. "Mother, let's give little brother a name!"

The children's names and words were taken care of by their father, the Prime Minister, but they still had the right to take the name of their mother.

"Alright, since he's so close to you, then Wuyou, you can do it!" Gu Ruolan looked at her daughter and laughed weakly.

"The eastern view of the Garden of Zhou is long, and the dragon clocks in my sleeves are still wet from tears. We shall meet without a pen and paper, and rely on the message sent by the Lord to report to you that we are safe. "

Luo Wuyou gave a light hum, lowered her eyes and looked at the child: "How about just call him An'er, and not ask for his wealth, and only wish for his life to be safe!"

"If it's nice to be in An'er, let's call him An'er." Gu Ruolan caressed the child's face, "Just like your sister's name is Wuyou, Mother wishes for your sister to live a life with Wuyou, and also wishes for you to be safe for the rest of your life!"

It was not that she did not understand the deep meaning behind her words, but Luo Wuyou lowered her head and did not say a word.

A Wuyou?

What a simple but luxurious wish.

Being born in the Prime Minister's Mansion, one was bound to have no fate with simple happiness. In this large courtyard, even preserving one's life was extremely difficult!

For some people, it wasn't something that you could fight for or not fight for.

That kind of person's name was: the natural enemy.

Since the moment he was born, he had been destined to fight to the death. There was nowhere to run, no place to run.

After a few more words, the Nanny Liu returned as well.

After a few more words, the Nanny Liu returned as well.

Not only did she bring an old doctor, she even brought a midwife here to clean Gu Ruolan's body.

The old doctor entered the room and checked her pulse through the curtain. Fortunately, although Gu Ruolan's body was weak, there were no major problems.

By the time he was done, it was already the end of the Yin hour and the latter half of the night.

"Nanny Liu, you are an old woman by Mother's side. Mother has just given birth and her body is weak, so there are a lot of things you need to take note of during this period.

After exiting the room, Luo Wuyou spoke to the Nanny Lin sincerely.

"Miss, don't worry. This old servant will carefully inspect all the necessities and accommodations that the Madam and the Little Master have. This old servant will definitely not allow anyone any opportunities to take advantage of them." Everything that happened tonight was especially important to the heart. Nanny Liu naturally knew the meaning behind those words, so she didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

"Nanny Liu, there are a lot of things to do. If you are unable to handle it, you should ask Nanny Lin for help. During this period of time, this Nanny Lin will also have to trouble you to move to the Yilan Garden and help me out." It was impossible for Nanny Liu to do everything by herself. There were many servants in the courtyard that could not be trusted, but right now was not the time to punish them.

She could only wait!

As for Nanny Liu and Nanny Lin, they had followed over from Mother's house and had watched her Mother growing up. The indenture contract was also in her mother's hands.

"I know, Miss, don't worry!"

The two of them nodded repeatedly, but Nanny Lin spoke again: "Miss, when do you plan to interrogate the midwife?" According to her meaning, the earlier the better.

However, Luo Wuyou was not the least bit anxious, "Nanny Lin, send someone over to take a look first. After working for an entire day and night, everyone is tired. We'll talk about other things tomorrow. " After a busy night, she was a little tired.

"Yes, miss."

The two were somewhat surprised, but they did not say anything more. Tonight, the young miss's behavior was swift and decisive, her aura was intimidating, completely different from her usual cautious, tolerant and cowardly personality. It could even be said that her actions ran counter to her usual actions.

It was shocking, but at the same time, it was hard to guess what it was!

Could it be that the young miss is no longer planning to endure?

Wuyou Pavilion

Luo Wuyou stepped into the room, and a maidservant came to report, saying that the midwife had committed suicide by taking poison in the woodshed.

"Miss, according to what this old servant has seen, this is definitely murder. How could someone coincidentally just be detained and then die? We didn't interrogate her, didn't convict her, and certainly didn't sentence her to death." You didn't even try to defend yourself before committing suicide? " Even pigs weren't that stupid, let alone humans!

"Miss, the midwife is dead, what should we do next?" Nanny Lin felt pity for her. Such a good chance for Madam to reestablish her power was gone.

What should she do?

Luo Wuyou's eyes flashed, and gave an indifferent word:

"Wait!"

Wait? Waiting for what?

Nanny Lin did not understand and wanted to ask, but her lips twitched, and in the end, she did not speak.

Ever since the beginning, her young mistress had maintained a calm face, as if she had already predicted this would happen. Her calm demeanor made people sigh in admiration.

An eleven-year-old girl would be a little scared when she heard that someone had died, but she didn't even bat an eyelid.

Ah, she was really getting harder and harder to see through her young mistress!
