Meng Cimo said, "Mrs. Zheng's natal family was very good in the past few decades. There were several high-ranking officials above the third rank. Now the uncle with the highest official position is serving as the chief envoy in other places, and one of his brothers is the deputy envoy of the General Affairs Department.

, the other children's official positions are not high. It is said that the eldest princess originally liked her because of her gentle temperament, the He family is prosperous, and the girls of the He family also give birth to more boys..."

Jiang Yixi snorted coldly, "Girls from the He family are good at giving birth to boys. Not many times after that man returned home, Mrs. Zheng actually gave birth to a boy. In fact, Mrs. Zheng is also a pitiful person. Her husband does not like her, and the eldest princess is powerful.

"If she is really as weak and harmless as she appears, and just doesn't want her family to interact with our siblings, then I will be fine with her. If she blames that person's indifference on my mother, she will take revenge on me and her

Xun'er, I won't be polite either."

Zheng Cimo nodded and said, "I won't be polite if she dares to have bad thoughts."

He leaned closer to Jiang Yixi's face and took a closer look, "Look carefully, you and Uncle Zheng really do look a bit alike."

Jiang Yixi was a little angry. She broke away from Meng Cimo's arm and sat up straight. She said, "Whoever looks like him. They say who raised him looks like me and I look like my father."

Meng Cimo held her in his arms again, "Yes, you look similar to your father-in-law. Fortunately, your father-in-law was smart and postponed your birthday for three months. No matter how they calculated, they never expected that you would be Uncle Zheng's descendant.

.You should try not to go to Princess Dachang’s mansion in the future, and try to have as little contact with Miss Zheng as possible.

"As for Uncle Zheng, my grandfather regarded him as his son and apprentice. He and I are also close friends. Especially Prince Ping, who admires him very much... You may not have any contact with him, but regardless of personal relationship, I will continue to have contact with him.

"Don't worry, I won't reveal anything about this in front of him..."

Jiang Yixi knew that it was impossible to stop Meng Cimo from interacting with him. The two talked until late at night and made out for a while before resting.

After greetings the next day, the front yard came to report that Zheng Yu had arrived, and also sent the letter and gifts that Zheng Tingting asked Zheng Yu to bring. Meng Cimo went to the front yard to see him.

In the letter, the little girl said that she went to Zhaoming Temple to offer incense two days ago and stayed there for one night. She also visited Li Zhenbao, who had lost weight again. They only exchanged a few words before she was invited to leave.

The gift was two small woven bamboo flower baskets bought outside the nunnery. The little girl in the mansion liked these little wild things. When Jiang Yixi lived in Huzhuang, she often saw them. The Wu family and his son could make them.

If it were before, Jiang Yixi would have replied to her letter and sent her another gift.

This time Jiang Yixi didn't send anything.

Jiang Yixi was still very reluctant to let go of such a cute little girl.

At noon, Meng Cimo and Zheng Yu were drinking and eating in the outer courtyard, and Zheng Yu did not leave until Shen Shichu.

Meng Cimo did not return to Fushengju, but went to Fu'an Hall to discuss secretly with the old man.

In the evening, Meng Cimo told Jiang Yixi that when the 22nd Queen Mother celebrates her birthday this month, the emperor will take all the princes, some ministers and family members to go hunting at the end of the month.

The emperor would take people out for autumn hunting almost every year at the end of August or early September, which was very common. But this time the place was special, it was Yecanggou not far from the imperial mausoleum.

Meng Cimo is busy with affairs in the army. He will use the Mid-Autumn Festival to go to the imperial mausoleum to see King Ping, trying to find a way to make the emperor remember Qu Concubine and King Ping. It would be best to summon them...

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Jiang Yixi first thought that Meng Cimo would come back for a reunion. On this day, many families would go out to eat in restaurants. The old man had already made a reservation to eat at the Xingyue Pavilion among the Thirteen Pavilions, and promised to take the whole family there.

Eat and admire the moon.

Seeing Jiang Yixi's disappointed eyes, Meng Cimo gently pinched her nose and said with a smile, "When you achieve great things, everything will be peaceful at home and abroad."

From the next day, the family began to prepare for attending the Queen Mother’s birthday. In the past, the Queen Mother only held grand celebrations on her tenth birthday, but in the past two years, the Queen Mother’s health has not been good. The emperor wanted to organize a grand celebration for her elderly family.

Increase happiness and longevity.

Those who came to the palace to pay their respects include clan relatives, princes, civil servants of the third rank and above and Jia Juan, military officers of the second rank and above and Jia Juan, and some specially recruited people.

Those who are eligible to go to the Meng family are Old Guogong and his wife, Cheng Guogong and his wife, Meng Cimo and his wife, and Meng Hua.

Because the second master's official position is not above the third rank, they and his wife are not qualified to go.

Meng Cimo was a third-grade military officer, but he was the heir apparent to Duke Cheng, so he was also qualified.

The gift has been prepared, which is the pot of "Tiannu Scattered Flowers". This pot of flowers has many flowers and good meaning, symbolizing blessings and longevity. It is exactly in line with the emperor's wish to hold a birthday banquet, and it will definitely bring good luck. This

The flowers were in full bloom, with as many as twenty-eight flowers, and their fragrance was so rich that you could smell it from a long distance away.

Although the old man was reluctant to give up, he still gave it up. He asked Jiang Yixi to take care of the potted flowers in the next few days and present them to the palace in the best condition.

The other tasks were to make new clothes and make new jewelry for these people who were going to celebrate their birthdays. Jiang Yixi had never been to the palace, so the old lady asked her nanny to teach her etiquette.

Meng Hua was very proud at this time, making the two little girls Meng Lan and Meng Shuang envious and jealous.

Meng Cimo did not come back on the 20th. He would come back on the night of the 21st and go to the palace to pay his birthday on the next day.

Jiang Yixi could no longer think about him, and was worried and excited about another thing.

Her menstrual period has not come for more than four days, so she may be pregnant. It is too early at this time, and I am afraid that if it is not the case, it is not easy to ask a doctor to check her pulse.

Jiang Yixi was good at diagnosing eye diseases, but her other medical skills were not very good, including diagnosing the pulse. She couldn't feel the Hua pulse, but it didn't mean she wasn't pregnant.

She was very conflicted. She was afraid that if she went, she would tire due to overwork and get into trouble with the Queen Mother, which would bring trouble to the Meng family. If she didn't go, she would have to find a good excuse.

The next day, Jiang Yixi whispered the truth to the old lady.

The old lady had been concerned about Jiang Yixi's belly, and hurriedly sent people to Tai Hospital to invite the imperial doctor who was the best in gynecology. She did not let Jiang Yixi return to Fushengju, but waited for the imperial doctor in Fu'an Hall.

The imperial doctor checked the pulse and said with a smile, "Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to Grandma Jiang, Grandma Jiang is happy."

The old lady was so happy that she thanked the imperial doctor profusely and asked someone to give her a red envelope.

The sound was so loud that the old man who was watering the flowers in the yard heard it and came in to ask what was going on.

When he heard that Jiang Yixi was pregnant, he was also overjoyed. His eldest grandson was twenty-two years old. He had escaped so many disasters, returned home with a good wife, and now had a child.

He asked Jiang Yixi to go back and rest, and not to enter the palace tomorrow.

Jiang Yixi's nose was sore with excitement. After living two lives, she was finally going to be a mother.

When Nanny Wu, Shuixiang and other girls heard about it, they were all very happy.

Not long after Jiang Yixi settled in Fusheng, rewards came from the old man, the old lady, Mrs. Fu, and Mrs. Meng.

The old man gave a pound of official swallows, the old lady gave a set of jewelry and a ginseng, and Mrs. Meng gave a pound of donkey-hide gelatin. Only Fu did not give food and tonics, but gave a piece of brocade silk and a piece of ginseng.
