Capital, Ninth Prince's Mansion, main room.

Shu Shu is drawing "Nine -nine Calling Cold Map", holding his own rouge, and filling the color to the plum blossom.

It is already the third day of the "Four Ninth Festival", and tomorrow will be the twelfth lunar month, and Brother Jiu has not returned to Beijing yet.

According to Brother Jiu's words before departure, he should arrive in Beijing by the end of the month at the latest.

Shu Shu was a little worried.

I'm afraid of getting sick outside, and there are other reasons as well.

When Ninth Elder Brother was here before, she disliked Ninth Elder Brother for being clingy; but after being separated for half a month, she really thought about it.

Xiao Chun opened the curtain and came in, saying happily: "Fu Jin, Sun Jin is back!"

They, the people who serve around her, are best able to sense Shu Shu's emotional changes.

Seeing Shu Shu losing energy and feeling unhappy all day long, they all felt anxious.

Shu Shu hurriedly said: "Quickly pass!"

Xiao Chun responded and went out to bring Sun Jin in.

"Because of the eldest princess, I traveled slowly when I came back. I only traveled thirty miles a day, with two days of rest in between. It was estimated that I would not arrive in Beijing until the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month. I was afraid that Fujin would miss me, so I sent my servant to come back first.

…”

Sun Jin did not hesitate and directly explained the reason.

After receiving the accurate information, Shu Shu felt at ease and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Go back and have a good rest. It's your fault for rushing at this time."

Although there is an old saying in Beijing that "it's hot in the third volts and cold in the third nines", in fact, it's also cold in the fourth nines, and sometimes the temperature is lower than in the third nines.

Sun Jin went down.

Shu Shu looked at the hanging "Nine-Nine Cold Relief Picture" with joy on her face.

Just three more days.

She looked at Xiao Chun and said, "Every family's New Year's gift has been prepared in the past few days. When I come back, I will send it away."

Xiao Chun agreed.

Shu Shu looked at Walnuts again and said, "Tell the kitchen to order a lamb on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and then I can make up for it."

Walnut also went down to give instructions.

There is still a little pine tree in the house.

Shu Shu's current situation is that she is surrounded by people for twelve hours.

At night, Xiaochun and Walnut took turns staying on duty.

As for Mrs. Bo, after Shu Shu stayed for two days, she stopped staying.

Because she found that Mrs. Uncle didn't sleep well when she was staying here, always thinking about herself, and always woke up in the middle of the night.

After all, she was an elderly person, so Shu Shu didn't dare to mess with her anymore, so she slept separately.

Shu Shu lowered his head and glanced at his belly. It was four months old. Because it was twins, it looked like it was five or six months old.

She asked Xiaochun to use a sling, but she felt tired even when standing and felt slumped when sitting. Most of the time, she slept on her side.

All her clothes were also changed into new, loose coats.

There was a push on the left side of my stomach, and I didn’t know if it was the child’s little hands or feet that were moving.

A four-month-old baby should already be as long as a palm.

Xiaosong said: "Fujin, please massage your legs..."

Shu Shu nodded. He moved less now and his body was getting rusty.

However, due to pregnancy, many areas cannot be massaged, so I can only massage the legs and arms.

Xiaosong stood beside the kang, pressing it carefully.

As she rubbed it, her eyes fell on Shu Shu's belly, with awe in her eyes.

Shu Shu saw it and smiled bitterly.

It scares people to death.

She was also in awe.

She still had some regrets.

Although in the eyes of the world, this woman's getting married and having children is as normal as eating and drinking, and not getting married or giving birth is an anomaly, she still misses the future.

If she were still in the future, she would have remained unmarried and childless to stay safe.

When she was suffering from pregnancy, she also had dark thoughts.

I always feel that I can be responsible for myself, and I don’t want to be responsible for so much.

She sighed and touched her belly gently.

No matter it's little brother or little princess, they must all be obedient. She is worried that she will become a "tiger mother" because she is impatient.

Xiaosong hesitated for a moment and said: "After Fujin gives birth this time, let's just stop giving birth. It looks so painful..."

She and Xiaotang were both afraid of childbirth, but they also knew how to restrain themselves and try not to show it in front of Shu Shu.

Shu Shu nodded and said: "Well, it will definitely take a few years..."

It would be great if there were two elder brothers. In that case, she would want to seal her belly.

This one experience is enough.

She never thought there was anything wrong with being a woman, and she never wanted to be a man to achieve success, but this time she got pregnant, and she no longer wanted to be a woman.

The cycle is too long.

There are some unspeakable changes in my body, and I go to the clean room more often...

With Shu Shu thinking about it day and night, finally on the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Holy Emperor returned to the palace.

After the ninth elder brother followed the eldest elder brother and the third elder brother sent the eldest princess and Princess Rongxian to the princess's courtyard, they said goodbye to their two elder brothers and couldn't wait to return to the prince's mansion.

The third elder brother shook his head and muttered to the eldest elder brother: "Look at how hopeless Lao Jiu is. After two years of marriage, they are like an old married couple, and they are still clingy. Fujin cannot be used to this."

The eldest elder brother glanced at the third elder brother and said, "Let's not get involved in the young couple's affairs. He can do whatever he likes."

The third elder brother disapproved and said: "You have to stand up. You also want to be the person of Amma."

The eldest brother was too lazy to listen to his ramblings and said, "Go back, it's getting late..."

*

Ninth Prince's Mansion, main room.

The couple reunited after a short break, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.

Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu. Because he was riding in the car, his face was still fair, but he had lost weight and his chin was pointed.

"Didn't you bring a lot of food? There are many kinds of food that can be used as late-night snacks. Why have you lost weight?" She asked with a little heartache.

Brother Jiu couldn't say anything, and said: "It was fine when I went there. I was in a hurry and didn't see much of the delicious food, so I just gave out a few cans of tea. When I came back, I went slowly and Khan Ama had nothing to do, so I gave him all my things."

Confiscated..."

After hearing this, Shu Shu couldn't help frowning and said: "How could the emperor do this? I have prepared several portions for you. I have plenty left. I thought that there are two younger brothers, the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother. Even if I have to

Even if it is confiscated, you should keep your share!"

Brother Jiu looked a little complicated and said: "It's not all thanks to Khan Ama, the things you prepared for me are all good for the stomach, easy to digest, and suitable for the eldest princess."

Shu Shu was worried and asked: "Is the eldest princess in a bad condition?"

Even if we took a detour back to the city, the distance would still be less than 400 miles, and we ended up walking for more than ten days.

Brother Jiu nodded and said: "It should be around the year before and after the New Year. This is still supported by the 'Yanshou Pill', otherwise, I won't be able to survive on the road."

Shu Shu thought about the food she had prepared for Ninth Brother before, lotus root starch, black sesame paste, butter fried noodles, walnut and red date powder, milk powder, instant millet porridge, instant rice porridge, and then meat floss and several kinds of seasoned vegetable and fruit granules. Indeed

More suitable for the taste of the elderly.

She said, "I haven't given out the New Year's gifts yet. I want to wait until I come back to start giving them out. Then, the eldest princess, let's add a few things and some side dishes."

Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Well, it's more or less my intention."

After saying this, Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu, dissatisfied, and asked Shu Shu: "I am running around outside. I can't eat well and sleep well. I have lost weight. You are doing well at home, why can't you do it?"

Thin?"

Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Do you want to tell him that this is the powerful power of the "Beef Diet"?!

These days, beef was plentiful, so Shu Shu adjusted her diet, mainly beef and eggs, supplemented by vegetables, and replaced rice and noodles with miscellaneous grains, and also reduced the quantity.

The fat is supplemented with sesame seeds and butter, which can not only moisturize the intestines, but also supplement calcium.
