Sage time.
Feng Ziying hugged Shen Yixiu's smooth and soft body and let him lie in his arms. Qingwen, who was on the other side of the bed, blushed and wanted to curl up Shen Yixiu's legs and put them in place, and then put them on soft cushions. Prepare for pregnancy in the best possible posture.
Tong Niang was already over two years old, and both Feng Ziying and Shen Yixiu felt that it was time for her to have another child.
The age of twenty-three or four is the best age for women to have children, and since she has already given birth to one child, it is the most suitable time for Shen Yixiu to become pregnant now.
Of course, the same goes for Baochai and Daiyu. Baochai is also twenty and Daiyu is nineteen. In this era, they are both the right ages for childbearing.
Feng Ziying's trip to Shaanxi made Miaoyu and Xiuyan pregnant, which immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the women in the family. Now that Feng Ziying is back, naturally everyone is looking forward to being pregnant like Miaoyu and Xiuyan. in, get pregnant quickly.
Even Shen Yixiu is no exception.
Life without a son was difficult. Although her mother-in-law never said anything and cherished Tong Niang as before, and her husband even liked Tong Niang more, Shen Yixiu knew that as the eldest daughter-in-law, she did not have a biological son by her side. It's not safe, especially in the Feng family's situation.
"Miaoyu and Xiuyan came back, but the house suddenly became lively, and even I was a little jealous." Shen Yixiu leaned his cheek against her husband's neck and glanced at Qingwen, who was still busy: " It’s a pity that this girl Qingwen is useless, and she didn’t get the chance after more than a year? Did I treat her poorly?”
"How can there be?" Feng Ziying smiled and shook her head: "This girl is crazy. She and Bao Qin dare to fight each other. As for saying that she is not satisfied, I guess the opportunity has not come yet."
Feng Ziying's words made Qingwen, who was still on the other side of the bed, spit. "I'm arranging slaves again. How can I dare to challenge Grandma Qin? No matter what she says, I will just listen. As for the slave not agreeing, that's fine." Even if you don’t do it, I’m not the second wife, so I don’t have to do what she says, but I won’t argue with her without knowing the rules.”
"Look, you said you know the rules." Feng Ziying rubbed her palms on Shen Yixiu's soft belly, "I hope Wan Jun can plant jade in the blue field today, and the buds will sprout and branches will grow, and he will get a man with one click."
Shen Yixiu's body is very slender, but it is convex where it should be and concave where it should be. It belongs to the style of a light and mature young woman, with suitable shades. Feng Ziying likes this fresh smell very much, although it is not particularly charming and alluring. It's a human feeling, but it always makes people feel at peace.
Shen Yixiu also enjoyed the comfort of the moment.
Her husband is still obsessed with her body, which makes her very happy. She knows that there are more and more women around her husband, but she doesn't care too much. Instead of worrying about taking precautions, it is better to be herself. As long as she is good and strong enough, her husband will Be firmly tied to your body and never be separated.
"It still depends on the chance. I happen to be in the fertile period for the past two days. I hope I can get what I want." Shen Yixiu turned his body to keep himself in a better fertile position. "I guess Baochai and Daiyu is the same as I am, but they are definitely more anxious. After all, I still have Tong Niang, and now that Xiuyan and Miaoyu are pregnant again, Daiyu is probably the most anxious."
Shen Yixiu never pretends to be pretentious and will tell her if she wants to get pregnant. Of course Feng Ziying will fulfill her wish.
"Well, Baochai and Daiyu must be a little impatient, but they can't be impatient. I also look forward to giving birth to children." Feng Ziying sighed comfortably, "Now Xiuyan Miaoyu has I am pregnant, Yingchun also gave birth to a son, and together with Tong Niang, I have four children after all. The Feng family finally has an heir, but we must have heirs for all three families. Wan Jun, you and Baochai Daiyu and the others We have to work harder. One or two are not enough. Only a few more will make my mother feel at ease."
In this era, it is very common for children to die in infancy, and it is usually after the age of seven that they can escape the shadow of death. If there are not two sons in the same house who have grown up to seven years old, they will not feel relieved.
When medical conditions cannot be guaranteed, the only option is to increase the chance of survival by having more children, which is also a no-brainer.
"Well, I think so too. By the way, I also want to tell you about the fourth sister." Shen Yixiu tilted his head and whispered softly: "The fourth sister is already fifteen, and she will be sixteen after the new year.
Therefore, I am also thinking that the fourth sister’s marriage will also be put on the agenda.”
"Huh?" Feng Ziying knew that Xichun and Shen Yixiu had a close relationship, and that his temperament had changed a lot. It was not as cold-faced and cold-hearted as it was written in the original "A Dream of Red Mansions" book. Perhaps she found a mother-like sister in Shen Yixiu. I feel that Xichun has become a lot more cheerful now. Before Feng Ziying left Beijing for Shaanxi, she met Xichun several times. , even Feng Ziying was amazed.
Although he hasn't seen Xichun yet after returning from this trip, he also heard from Yuanyang that Xichun would come to Shen Yixiu's place to stay almost every other day. He had been staying with Shen Yixiu often in the past six months, and he was very fond of Tong Niang. She is also very good. She often takes Tong Niang out to play. Tong Niang also likes this "little aunt" very much.
The title "little aunt" was also used by the servants in the eldest house to tease Tong Niang behind her back. Tong Niang was childish, so naturally she didn't understand the whole story, so she started shouting when she saw Xichun. Who would have thought that Xichun would hear this? She was just shy and timid, but she didn't stop her objections. At this time, outsiders didn't understand. What's more, Grandma Shen didn't say anything, so naturally others had nothing to say.
"You're not sixteen yet?" Feng Ziying understands Shen Yixiu's thoughts. There are too few people in the eldest room, Second Sister You is an honest good-for-nothing, Third Sister You's thoughts are not on this, and there is no one else in her room. Well, Qingwen's status is not high enough. If Xichun came in earlier, he would be able to help her.
"The fourth sister's birthday is in April, so it's less than half a year ago." Shen Yixiu didn't believe that Feng Ziying couldn't remember Xichun's birthday. Her husband always remembered the birthdays of the girls in the Jia family very closely. "It seems that she is early for her age." It’s time to talk about getting married, or even get married, but her current status, is there an explanation?”
Feng Ziying pursed her lips, "It's hard to say. We have to wait until the Jiangnan incident is concluded. Jia Jing does have some connections with the imperial court, but I have a hard time seeing whether this can completely exonerate him, unless Prince Yi Zhong Can we really reach an agreement with the imperial court?
Shen Yixiu was startled and almost sat up. Suddenly he thought that he was still preparing for pregnancy and quickly lay down again: "Really? Nanjing wants to negotiate peace with the imperial court? Can the imperial court agree?"
"It depends on the situation. The situation in the court is not optimistic, and the princes and the cabinet are not very satisfied. It is all a matter of the Zhang family. If Prince Yi Zhong can compromise with the cabinet, it is better than continuing to fight. If Jiangnan is defeated, the situation may be It's worse." Feng Ziying didn't elaborate, but Shen Yixiu could think of something.
After thinking about it for a while, Shen Yixiu said softly: "I'm afraid it depends on the negotiation between the cabinet and Prince Yizhong. If the cabinet's authority as prime minister is guaranteed, maybe they won't mind letting Prince Yizhong succeed him. Isn't that what happened before? Is it the case of Nangong Restoration? And Prince Yi Zhong is already in his fifties, how many more years can he have? But the cabinet of Prince Yi Zhong, the crown prince, may pay more attention to it, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. The prince has a soft personality. Maybe the cabinet is interested in this?" Feng Ziying chuckled.
"Has the cabinet calculated to this extent?" Shen Yixiu was surprised. She was from a scholar's family, and her husband was also a scholar. Naturally, she was also sitting on the scholar's side. "Then it will not be easy to be the emperor in the future. Emperor Yuanxi This situation will change even more from now on.”
From the late Yuanxi period to the succession of Emperor Yonglong, the power of the prime minister became more and more obvious. Emperor Yonglong faced pressure from all sides and felt exhausted mentally and physically. From Shen Yiguan to Ye Xianggao, they were all cunning old women. The power struggle has always been dominated by the prime minister, but the military warriors have been dissatisfied with the court due to insufficient food and salary supplies, and Prince Uizada is a troublemaker, so the military warriors are basically on his side. As a result, Emperor Yonglong was never able to win the initiative.
However, once Prince Yoshitaka succeeds to the throne, the status of military warriors will surely increase. This will be a major threat to the civil servants of the cabinet. This is why the cabinet now wants to reduce the military power of military personnel in advance, and Prince Yoshitaka wants to actively win over these military officials. Why would he contact me so many times because of Wu Ren?
"It's hard to say whether it's a disaster or a blessing, especially under the current situation of foreign enemies." Feng Ziying didn't comment much. It's not his turn to comment yet. He can only take one step at a time.
"Can the identity of the fourth sister be resolved next year?" Shen Yixiu returned to the original topic.
"It should be possible." Feng Ziying was not sure, "When Jiangnan happened, some unimportant people will definitely be pardoned, and I will also promote this matter."
Shen Yixiu laughed, "It's not just the fourth sister, but also the third sister and Yun Yatou, right?"
Feng Ziying smiled lightly, and Shen Yixiu never tried to hide anything, "Well, the third sister probably wants to move into the third bedroom. She and Daiyu are as close as sisters, and I also like her temperament. As for Girl Yun, it's hard to say yet. She has a good relationship with Baochai and Daiyu, and she respects you very much. Why don't you let her into your eldest room?" Shen Yixiu rolled his eyes at Feng Ziying, "I won't do such a thing that goes against other people's wishes, Yun The girl can go into whichever room she wants. If you really feel that there are too few people in my room, just make Qingwen my concubine."
Qingwen, who was still massaging Shen Yixiu at the bedside, heard what Shen Yixiu said and said quickly: "I can't afford to be a slave."
"If you can't afford it, hurry up and give birth to a boy and a half girl for your husband. Then you can afford it, even if you give birth to a daughter." Shen Yixiu took care of everything.
