The emperor came here to share the joy with his concubine.
When he saw Mrs. Cao coming over, he simply said a few polite words and gave up the space to them.
"How have you been in the past few days? Has the child made trouble for you?" Mrs. Cao knew that Concubine Rong was in good condition and the child was not making trouble, unlike some women who vomited until they were unconscious in the past few months.
Even so, Mrs. Cao still asked worriedly.
Concubine Rong is now very happy. Because she announced the news openly and openly, the emperor and the queen mother sent many rewards. The emperor even came to ask about the situation in person.
When her mother asked, she smiled and said, "I'm not making trouble, I'm very sensible."
I heard that the child was very peaceful, which made Mrs. Cao feel relieved, but she was worried that the child would make trouble and the concubine Rong would suffer accordingly.
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then Mrs. Cao talked about the purpose of entering the palace today.
"It's something Sixth Sister prepared." Concubine Rong now has a very good impression of Dong Nuan.
If it weren't for recognizing this sixth sister, her promotion speed would not have been so fast. It was also because His Majesty valued Dong Nuan, so he came to her palace more frequently recently.
Although Concubine Rong is not very ambitious, who doesn't want to have a higher and more stable status in the harem.
The family sent her to the palace for the glory of the family. This is her mission, and she must work hard for this.
At worst, she should be made a concubine!
Now we are very close to this goal.
When this child is born, if he is a prince, he will definitely be made a concubine. If he is a princess, it is hard to say.
Concubine Rong couldn't tell in her heart whether she was looking forward to a princess or a prince.
The mother and daughter shared the goodies for a while, but Mrs. Cao was not at ease: "Those things that need to be put on the body and put into the mouth still have to go through the hands of the imperial doctor."
"I know." How could Concubine Rong not know this? No matter how much she likes it, if she can't use it during pregnancy, she will be ruthless not to use it.
Dong Nuan knew before that Concubine Rong was pregnant, but she didn't let anyone know until she was less than three months old, so she pretended she didn't know.
The next day, Mrs. Cao came to Zhuangzi. Not only did she come to distribute wedding candies, but she also came to see how the orchards in Zhuangzi were doing.
Although Concubine Rong's pregnancy is not severe, her mouth has always been tasteless recently and she wants to eat something tasty.
But there were some things that were difficult to eat while pregnant with a child, so Mrs. Cao thought of coming to Zhuangzi to see the fruit trees.
"Auntie." Dong Nuan greeted obediently, and Mrs. Cao quickly helped her up.
"You kid, there are no outsiders here, so you don't need these polite courtesy." After Mrs. Cao helped the person up, she scolded.
Dong Nuan smiled obediently.
Mrs. Cao didn't go around too much. She first talked about the reward, and then brought some gifts. What Concubine Rong gave to her sister Dong Nuan was always different from others.
Therefore, a small box was packed, and Dong Nuan signaled Green Bamboo to put the things away.
"By the way, how are the fruits growing in the orchard? Are there any that can bear fruit this year? Your eldest sister said that she has no taste in her mouth recently, so I thought of going out and asking about the fruits. After all, dried fruits don't taste as good as fruits." Cao
The lady thinks that if there are no fresh fruits, then choose dried fruits.
After all, the dried fruits had been stored for a long time, so Mrs. Cao was worried.
She had given birth to several children of her own, but she had never been so worried. Now that it was her daughter's turn, she was worried about everything.
Hearing Mrs. Cao ask about the fruit, Dong Nuan smiled: "Auntie came just in time. The spring peaches in the orchard are ripe. I originally planned to pick some and send them back to the house tomorrow. Now it's better. It saves me money.
It’s over.”
As Dong Nuan spoke, she motioned for Mrs. Cao to follow her into the carriage.
The carriage that Dong Nuan drove on Zhuangzi was a very simple one, without even a curtain.
After all, what she wants to do is to patrol Zhuangzi, not just sit and watch the excitement.
Mrs. Cao is used to it. Last time she sat here to watch tweed.
After all, there are hundreds of acres of land, and her feet can be wiped out just by walking on them.
Mrs. Cao was actually not very suitable for it at first, but now she feels that this open carriage is very comfortable in spring and summer.
It's a pity that there are not many big shots in the capital who can drive such a carriage out.
After the two people got on the carriage, Dong Nuan introduced a few words from time to time: "The spring peaches have been picked in the past two days. They are crispy. They will become softer and sweeter after a few days. If you like the soft ones, just put them away. If you don't like them, eat them.
Fresh.”
In fact, among the mature saplings I bought, there were really no suitable spring peach trees. The warm winter quietly encouraged the growth of a few peach trees, and I quietly improved the original ones in the orchard.
Now, after the peach trees have been stimulated and improved, the peaches they produce are big and juicy.
"Your eldest sister likes soft peaches, she will probably keep them for a few days." Mrs. Cao knew her daughter very well.
The two of them rode in a carriage for most of the day before they arrived at the fruit forest at the back.
The fruit grove now needs careful attention, so the stewards and long-term workers here are busy.
Seeing the master's family coming, the steward came over to receive them.
"Prepare two baskets and call two long-term workers. I want to pick some peaches." Dong Nuan came over and explained his needs simply and clearly.
The steward was busy arranging for people to come over. He was also hungry for peaches, but he was too embarrassed to speak.
The peaches are all crisp and tender, pink and tender.
To be honest, for all the years he has been in the capital, he has always seen royal estates, but he has never seen such big, fresh and attractive peaches as in the orchard now.
Mrs. Cao originally thought that it was just an ordinary spring peach. If you look carefully for this thing, you can find it in the houses of some powerful families in the capital. But she didn't know whether it would mature so early.
When she actually stood by the peach tree, she was filled with shock!
After a long time, Dong Nuan went over to direct which ones to pick, and then Mrs. Cao found her voice: "This... is a peach?"
That peach weighs almost a pound, right?
It feels good that no matter how big the peach is, it will be bigger than the face of this little girl Dong Nuan.
Mrs. Cao began to doubt life in a daze.
On the other side of Liangzhou, there is another person who is also doubting life in a daze.
Mrs. Cao was in a daze because she had never seen such a big peach before.
And Gou Qingyun, who was far away in Liangzhou, was in a trance because...
She had never seen a peach tree that could bear so many and such big peaches.
Because the peaches in Zhuangzi here in Liangzhou are also ripe, Dong Nuan wrote a letter last month and asked Gou Qingyun to help her keep an eye on them.
Naturally, Gou Qingyun had no objection, so she went to Zhuangzi every day recently and found that the fruits on the trees were almost ripe, so she asked the long-term workers to start picking peaches.
After picking it, I put it on the scale and started to feel dazed.
