Yubi's face changed slightly, she lowered her head and looked around herself, and said: "Dongmei, Xiao Quanzi, am I really that fat?"
Xiao Quanzi smiled and said: "There's no such thing, I'm just a little fatter."
Before Dongmei could respond, Concubine Yu glanced at her coldly and said, "I want to hear the truth and tell you!"
Xiao Quanzi was startled by her sudden scolding. After he calmed down, he looked embarrassed and said: "To tell you what Master, it seems that I have indeed... gained some weight."
Seeing Concubine Yu looking over, Dongmei quickly said: "Return to the master, although this slave has never given birth to a child, the master looks fatter than an average woman who is six months pregnant, but this shows that the little brother is good-looking.
, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this.”
Yubi had always thought this way, but when she thought about what Ling Ruo had just said, she always felt that something was wrong. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Go and ask Dr. Zhou to come over."
Not long after Xiao Quanzi went out, Yubi heard a soft cry from her belly. Dongmei heard it and said cautiously: "Master, could you please go make some snacks?"
Although Yubi was hungry, she still said: "No, I don't want to eat now. We'll wait until Doctor Zhou comes."
Seeing her persistence, Dongmei had no choice but to wait with her for Zhou Minghua to come over. During this period, Yubi's stomach rumbling several times, but she did not speak, and Dongmei did not dare to speak either.
.
After about half an hour, Zhou Minghua came over with Xiao Quanzi. After bowing, he said anxiously: "The empress is anxious to send the minister over, but there is something wrong with the dragon fetus?"
After Yubi motioned him to sit down, she said: "Don't worry, Dr. Zhou, the dragon fetus is fine. I have something I want to ask you."
Zhou Minghua felt slightly at ease, and then said: "Mother, please speak."
After Yu Bi collected her thoughts, she said: "I have discovered that since I came back from Rehe Palace, my appetite has been surprisingly good. Not only do I have five meals a day, but I often add snacks. Now that I am less than six months pregnant, I have...
He has become so fat and has difficulty moving, Doctor Zhou, what is going on?"
"Returning to your Majesty, generally speaking, the appetite of pregnant women is better than that of ordinary people. It is not surprising that your situation is like this."
Yubi said eagerly: "But if we continue like this, I'm afraid that I will be extremely fat by the time I give birth. If I am too fat, will it affect the delivery?"
Although she was very scheming, this was her first time getting pregnant and giving birth to a child. If Ling Ruo hadn't mentioned it this time, she wouldn't have thought of it.
"This..." Zhou Minghua thought about it carefully and said, "If the child is too big, it will indeed affect the delivery. In the least case, the pain will be aggravated, and in the worst case... it will be difficult to give birth."
Yubi was startled, and then asked: "What will happen if it is difficult to give birth?"
Zhou Minghua lowered his head and said: "If it is really difficult to give birth, it may endanger the lives of both mother and child."
Hearing this, Yubi couldn't help but panic, and said nervously: "Then... what should I do now? Should I control myself and not continue to gain weight to avoid having a difficult delivery?"
Zhou Minghua quickly comforted him and said, "Don't worry too much, Madam. If you are depressed now, it will definitely affect the stability of the baby. You must try to relax your mood."
Hearing this, Concubine Yu tried her best to calm down, and then said: "I understand, but I would like to ask Doctor Zhou to help me think of a way to control this matter."
Zhou Minghua pondered: "Nowadays, we can't go on a diet too much. We can only eat as little sweet and greasy food as possible and eat mainly light foods. In addition, the empress will have more time to move around, which will help her production."
Yubi nodded repeatedly. After sending Zhou Minghua out, she endured the hunger in her belly and went to the inner hall to rest. After tossing and turning, she finally fell asleep. However, she woke up from hunger after a while and could not fall back to sleep at all, so she had to let Dongmei sleep.
Go to the small kitchen to cook some light fish porridge.
But after drinking two bowls in succession, my stomach was still empty, as if I hadn't eaten anything. It wasn't until I ate half a plate of Xiao Quanzi and brought the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that I felt full.
But after eating it, Concubine Yu regretted it endlessly and said in annoyance: "The Imperial Physician Zhou just told me to eat less sweet and greasy food. How come I forgot about it in the blink of an eye? How could I keep getting fat like this?"
"Master, in fact, dystocia is very rare. Many people do not give birth to their children safely. Don't worry so much."
"No matter how small it is, it is still possible to encounter it." As she said this, she murmured: "No, I will never have a difficult delivery, and nothing will happen to me. From now on, no matter how uncomfortable it is, I must endure it.
."
The following days were extremely difficult for Yubi, because she could only eat seventy percent full every time, and the original five meals were changed back to three meals. The feeling of hunger bothered her all the time.
It's not too much to say that a day feels like a year, and during those days, I wonder if the baby in her belly was also hungry, more active than usual, and kicked her often.
After persisting like this for five days, Yubi finally couldn't stand it anymore and resumed her original diet. However, she always felt that something was wrong with her unusual hunger. She was not a person who couldn't stand it anymore, and she was still hiding.
At that time, because she ate too much in winter, she couldn't fit into last year's clothes, so she decided to slim down. The diet at that time was much harsher than now, but she persisted. Why now...
On this day, after Zhou Minghua took her pulse as usual, she told him her doubts, and then said: "I really can't find the reason, but I feel that continuing like this is not the answer, so I want to ask Dr. Zhou,
Is there any prescription or method to curb appetite?"
Zhou Minghua said: "The prescriptions mentioned by the Queen are indeed available, but the Queen is pregnant with Liujia, so it is not suitable to take those medicines. If you want to control your diet, you can only rely on the Queen herself."
"If I could control myself, I wouldn't tell you this." After Yubi said angrily, she managed to suppress the anger in her heart and said: "Mr. Zhou, is there really nothing you can do? I have been unable to do anything these days.
After thinking about it, I always feel that this good appetite is a bit unusual."
Zhou Minghua said helplessly: "With your current situation, I really can't do it."
She said a little irritably: "Okay, please step back."
After Zhou Minghua disappeared, Yubi picked up the tea cup beside her and slammed it on the ground. She said sternly: "You are still the deputy director of Taiyuan Hospital. You are so useless. You can't even think of a solution for such a trivial matter."
, If it weren’t for the fact that he is the Queen Mother’s confidant, I would want him to look good.”
Dongmei and Xiao Quanzi were so frightened by Yubi's anger that they looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything. They finally waited for her to calm down her anger, but when they tried on the clothes they were going to wear the next day at night, they lost their temper again. Because it was just...
In ten days, the newly made clothes actually became smaller again, which means that during this period, her weight has been increasing rapidly. If this continues, I can't imagine what it will be like when she gives birth in October.
