When Zhang Ruoxi heard what her maid Yun Jin said, her eyebrows raised slightly in surprise, and she asked in a low voice: "Dan Ran, how long has it been since your period?" Her voice was very soft -
Shang Danran was bent over, still vomiting, and didn't reply, but Zhang Ruoxi knew that Danran heard it, because Danran's face turned red instantly. Zhang Ruoxi was very happy. She was pregnant at first, and her pregnancy reaction was very strong. She was dizzy and sleepy after smelling it.
The greasy smell makes me nauseous, but it feels better when I'm pregnant. Looking at Dan Ran now, she looks like she's pregnant. Dan Ran and Ohara have been married for more than four months, and it's normal to be pregnant. Of course, I don't dare to do it now.
Sure, she needs to ask carefully——
After Shang Danran had calmed down from vomiting and rinsed her mouth with water, Zhang Ruoxi held her hand and said: "Dan Ran, go upstairs to talk with your sister." Then she said to Zhang Yuan: "Xiao Yuan, you wait below. You are not allowed to go anywhere.
Stop going to the lake to admire the moon."
Shang Danran said hurriedly: "Let him go. Xiuwei, Zhenzhen and all of them will go."
Zhang Ruoxi smiled and said: "That's unreasonable. If you don't go, it would be better for them to go - let's go upstairs first. We are not in a hurry to visit the lake. We will talk about it later." Holding Shang Danran's hand, he reached the second floor and couldn't wait.
Question: "Dan Ran, tell sister, how long has it been since your period?"
Shang Danran blushed to his ears and whispered: "Sister, please keep your voice down——"
Zhang Ruoxi smiled, turned back to look at Yi Ting and several maids who were following her, and said, "Come Yi Ting, you guys just wait on the corridor." She pulled Shang Danran into her bedroom and stood in front of the window.
Sit down on the armchair——
Yi Ting then came in. Yi Ting was not in the teahouse just now. Hearing that the maid said that Shang Danran was unwell, he hurried over and asked with concern: "What's wrong with Danran?"
"Nothing." Shang Danran replied.
The sky wasn't completely dark yet, and there was still dim light outside the window. Zhang Ruoxi, who was sitting under the window, could still see the blush on Shang Danran's face. She reached out and gently touched Shang Danran's shy cheek, and chuckled: "Red
You have to feel hot - tell your sister, she is someone who has been through this and can help you with advice."
Shang Danran bowed his head shyly for a while before speaking out: "I was supposed to come around the tenth day of last month, but I didn't come. This month - I didn't come this month -"
Zhang Ruoxi nodded and asked, "Aside from nausea and vomiting, do you have any other discomforts?"
Shang Danran said: "Everything else is fine. I just feel like people have become lazy. I don't even want to kick when I get up early -"
"No, no," Zhang Ruoxi said hurriedly, "It's not okay to kick." Then she asked, "Dan Ran, have you ever thought that you are pregnant?"
Yi Ting on the side opened his eyes wide in surprise——
Shang Danran remained silent, obviously thinking about it. She didn't have a mother, and she was too embarrassed to go back to Kuaiji to ask her sister-in-law Qi. She was unsure and didn't want to tell her mother-in-law Lu, so she read "The Jade Box" and "The Gynecological Secretary" by herself -
—
Zhang Ruoxi took Shang Danran's hand and stroked it, and said softly: "Silly boy, why didn't you tell your mother about this? My Zhang family only has a single seedling, Xiao Yuan. If your parents know that you are pregnant, they are talking to Xiao Yuan."
It's such a happy event like winning the national examination, you know how happy I am."
Yi Ting said: "Yes, I wonder how happy it will be."
Shang Danran whispered: "I'm not sure about this yet. Zhang Lang isn't at home, so I'm embarrassed to say -"
Zhang Ruoxi smiled and said: "Then you come here and tell Xiao Yuan——"
Shang Danran hurriedly defended: "No, no, I really want to come and see the West Lake. I used to hear Zhang Lang say how beautiful the West Lake is -" his voice lowered: "If I am really pregnant, I'm afraid I won't be able to go with Zhang Lang."
I came to Beijing. Zhang Lang originally said that he would accompany me to hangzhou for a few days when he came to Beijing——"
Zhang Ruoxi nodded and said: "You can't go to Beijing anymore. Who can rest assured about the bumpy journey of thousands of miles? My mother will definitely not let you go." After saying that, he stood up and said: "Hurry up and tell Xiao Yuan the good news -
—”
"Sister, I don't want it." Shang Danran stood up and took Zhang Ruoxi's hand, shaking his head shyly.
Zhang Ruoxi chuckled and said: "Do you think Xiao Yuan didn't guess it? You just lowered your head and didn't pay attention. When Xiao Yuan heard what I asked you, his eyes lit up with surprise and joy. He knows the elegant meaning of Xian Ge after hearing it.
Yes, Xie Yuanlang knows everything without reading any books. Otherwise, he would have been anxious to ask a doctor to treat you."
Yi Ting smiled.
Shang Danran was ashamed.
Zhang Ruoxi smiled and said: "Forget it, let's talk about it in detail when you two are sleeping together at night. Can you still go on the leap Mid-Autumn Festival tour to the lake and admire the moon?"
Shang Danran said: "Go ahead, I don't have any other discomfort. It's just that the cake I just ate was too sweet and greasy, so I felt nauseated."
Zhang Ruoxi didn't think that she had to stay close to the house to keep her pregnant. Dan Ran had already arrived here by boat from Shanyin, so there was no harm in going to the lake. She and Yi Ting immediately protected Dan Ran when she got off.
building--
Zhang Yuan, who was in the teahouse downstairs, followed his sister Ruoxi upstairs indifferently and walked to the patio. Two pots of cut autumn flowers bloomed like dark fire in the twilight, with a faint fragrance. These two pots of flowers were
Wang Wei bought it from the flower market. Wang Wei's soft voice came from beside him: "Ms. sir, is your wife pregnant?"
The concubines of gentry families would call their head wives madam, nüjun, or eldest sister. Nüjun is not commonly used, but eldest sister is the northerner's name. Zhang Yuan now uses the name of merit, and Dan Ran can call him madam -
Zhang Yuan said: "It's not clear yet." But he couldn't hide the joy on his face. He worked hard to sow seeds and his life continued. How could he not be happy? He glanced at the white jade bracelet Wang Wei was wearing on his wrist. The light in the teahouse showed that this white jade bracelet
The bracelet reflected the radiance of his skin, and he asked, "Is this the bracelet that Dan Ran gave you as a gift?"
Wang Wei shook his wide sleeves gently, and removed the cuffs. His wrists were as bright as snow. He lowered his eyes and looked at the bracelet on his wrist, and said with a smile: "It was given by my lady. Today, Wang Wei feels at ease. My husband is really blessed, and Wang Wei is also blessed -"
—" He looked sideways at Mu Zhenzhen, who was standing next to Jian Qiuluo, and added: "Zhenzhen is also blessed."
Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "I am lucky. My sister said that I have a good wife and beautiful concubines."
A servant girl came in and said that the food and wine were ready, and asked when the banquet would start.
Zhang Yuan said: "Wait a moment." After waiting for a while, he heard the sound of the stairs. Zhang Ruoxi helped Shang Danran down, cautiously. Zhang Ruoxi said with joy in her tone: "Xiao Yuan, is the cruise ship ready? Is it okay?
let's go."
Zhang Yuan stepped forward and asked, "Dan Ran, is it okay?"
Shang Danran said shyly: "It doesn't matter."
Zhang Yuan was not as secretive as Dan Ran, so he asked in an ear: "Have you--?"
Yi Ting pursed his lips and smiled, Zhang Ruoxi had already laughed out loud and said: "Dan Ran, what I said is right, Jie Yuanlang knows everything."
Shang Danran said shyly: "I haven't asked a doctor to examine me yet."
Zhang Yuan said happily: "Then I will ask a famous doctor from Hangzhou to diagnose now——"
Zhang Ruoxi smiled and said: "There's no need to be so anxious, doctors also want to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Wang Wei first came up to say congratulations to Shang Danran, and the other maids and maids also congratulated him one after another. Shang Danran was more cautious and said: "This is not sure yet-"
Zhang Ruoxi did things quickly and neatly, and immediately gave a gift of one penny to each of the maids and maids in the inner courtyard, as well as the servants and clerks in the outer courtyard. I had never heard that a housewife should give gifts to others when she is pregnant, but Miss Ruoxi was happy
, love reward, who among the servants would not be happy?
Shang Zhoude was still drinking tea with Zong Yishan in the front hall, when he suddenly heard the good news from the inner courtyard. He was shocked at first, and then overjoyed, saying repeatedly: "This is really a double happiness. This is really a double happiness."
After a while, word came out from the inner courtyard that they were going on a lake cruise. The food and wine were packed in food boxes and sent to the boat.
The bright moon in the distant mountains has already risen. More than 20 carriages, sedan chairs, and maidservants from the Shengmei Haobu Village came out of Kinmen and arrived at the West Lake. Shang Zhoude, Zong Yishan, and a group of male servants were there.
On a smaller boat, Zhang Ruoxi, Zhang Yuan's sister and brother, Yi Ting, Wang Wei, Mu Zhenzhen, maids, servants, and a few servants were on the big boat. The two boats headed for the island in the middle of the lake one after the other.
.
This leap Mid-Autumn Festival is far less popular than the Mid-Autumn Festival last month. Zhang Yuan described to Dan Ran and the others the grand occasion of the last time, with big boats and small boats, a chaotic sound and light, famous children and ladies, a mixture of laughter and cries. He also said that the elder brother and the others were at Broken Bridge that night.
Over there you can play the ruan, play the zither, play the flute and sing songs. I must be there at this time, and you can pass——
Shang Danran smiled and said: "Zhang Lang described the grand scene that day vividly, as if it were before my eyes, but I feel that the West Lake is more beautiful tonight, with the cold autumn moon, as if flying in Guanghan Palace."
Zhang Yuan said: "The West Lake is beautiful all the time." He gently held Dan Ran's hand.
The two boats circled the island in the middle of the lake and sailed slowly along the east side of Gushan. Zhang Yuan also talked about the interesting stories of traveling to the West Lake with the little sisters Jinglan and Jinghui the year before last. The two sisters rushed to recite poems about the West Lake. Those poems were all
Dan Ran taught them, and two and a half years have passed in the blink of an eye. The two little sisters have grown up a lot, right?
Shang Danran said: "Xiao Hui is nine years old this year, and her birthday is one day later than mine -" Thinking about this made her a little unhappy. She couldn't go to Beijing with Zhang Yuan because she was pregnant, and she wouldn't be able to see her eldest brother's family.
She is ten years older than Xiao Hui. When Xiao Hui turns ten next year, she will be twenty. Zhang Yuan will not be able to be with her on her birthday——
The boat passed the lonely mountain, and under the moonlight there was a line of embankment marks. That was the White Embankment. To the right of the White Embankment, the water was vast, the moon was shining brightly, and the bright lake reflected the same shadow. This beautiful scenery made people disappear all their common thoughts and feel calm.
My heart also calmed down.
Suddenly he heard the sound of a flute not far away, whistling long and circling, like a dream under the moonlight. Zhang Yuan knew in his heart that this was Zhou Menong's flute, and said: "This flute is suitable for listening from a distance -"
After listening quietly for a moment, a loud voice suddenly sang "The brocade sails are sailing, the clear lake is vast -" The sound was like a tidal wave, the lake was like boiling, and the faint sound of the flute had been squeezed out somewhere.
Zhang Yuan and his two boats moved closer to the broken bridge, and saw hundreds of people sitting on the bridge and embankment. The moonlight was splashing like water, and those people were like water fairies, but they felt that the chorus was a little strange.
It's a bit off, but if you look around and listen carefully, you will feel that this majestic song is so warm as the lake is vast, the sky is high, the moon is full, and the waves are vague.
This is the West Lake Leap Mid-Autumn Festival.
Leisure time before entering Beijing, a storm is coming.
