When Wen Xin was seven months old, her uterus pressed on her bladder, causing her to get up several times a night and to urinate frequently. Her legs also began to cramp, and when her calf cramps were so severe, she couldn't walk. Song'er
He rubbed Wen Xi's calf and said, "Master, why don't you ask Qinglan to prescribe some medicine."
"Is it because the medicine is poisonous? Let's forget it. Prepare a bowl of fresh milk for me every morning from now on. Remember to add more peanuts to get rid of the fishy smell." It's impossible to drink raw milk. It just smells like milk and is so warm.
Occasionally with almond butter, peanut butter, etc.
Cramps are mostly caused by calcium deficiency, so supplement with more calcium.
Song'er nodded and said: "Master, would you like to prepare a portion of rock sugar hoof flowers every day? I heard that I can eat them wherever I like!"
Three black lines slid across Wen Xi's forehead. You want to use pig's hooves to patch up my human hooves?! Bullshit theory! Wen Xi curled her lips and said, "When I give birth, I will marry you two together so that you don't have to tease me!"
"
A blush appeared on Song'er and Zhu'er's faces. They both already liked each other. They originally planned to leave the palace and get married at the end of last year. Unfortunately, Wen Xi suddenly became pregnant. It was the time when she needed someone to take care of her.
, only to keep them for a while. Women, especially palace maids, are all looking forward to this day. Even the most loyal palace maids have to plan for their own future. Basically, palace maids have to be twenty-five years old before they are born.
The palace ladies will all become old maids by then, so how can they be worthy of any good people? The luckier ones are just step-wives! Since Wen Ru has this right in her hands, naturally she can't delay them. Song'er
She is the same age as Wen Xi and is already nineteen. Zhu'er is also eighteen and can't delay it any longer. Their dowries are ready. Wen Xi estimates that her due date is August, and she will wait until the confinement period.
Just marry them off together.
Zhu'er rubbed the hem of his clothes and said: "Master, to be honest, this slave is a little scared???"
"What are you afraid of? You two have to choose your own husbands!" Although they have never met, Wen Xi asked them to take advantage of the opportunity to leave the palace to go to Cheng'en Gong's mansion, and E Niang secretly showed them the portraits.
Zhu'er chose a scholar with good looks and elegant demeanor, but his family background was not very good, and he had an old mother with poor legs and feet. Thinking about this, he said warmly: "But He Xiucai is a little poor.
.I specially built a rural farm for you on the outskirts of the city, so that you can live a smooth life in the future!"
Zhu'er's face turned red and she quickly lowered her head.
Wen Xi looked at Song'er who was smiling beside her. She chose a merchant who dealt in overseas novelty items and was attached to the Cheng'en Palace. However, he didn't look very good, and Song'er had chosen the right one.
Xi just let her do it. In addition to the gold and silver dowry, Wen Xi bought Song'er a shop in the city, which also gave her some confidence. The family background of the person Song'er chose was only slightly inferior to that of Du He.
Du He is two years older and has never been married. The room is quite clean. There is no such thing as concubine intercourse. Anyway, with the support of Duke Cheng'en and Wen Xi, there is no need to worry too much about them in the future. Mei'er
Isn’t life going very well? A big fat boy was born in the spring of next year.
The delivery date was approaching step by step. Wen Xi was afraid of difficult labor and did not dare to leave Chengqian Palace at will, so she could only walk around in her own palace. The Ministry of Internal Affairs arranged four more nuns to be responsible for delivering babies. Wen Xi carefully called for people
After checking, two of them were secretly sent by Niu Hulu Mansion, so they were trustworthy, and the other two were from Kangxi, so Wen Xi accepted them with peace of mind.
Wen Xi was taking a walk when Grandma Lu from Cining Palace came again, presumably to ask for the longevity ointment again! Xiaozhuang was indeed addicted to it. She started using it in April and finished it in less than a month.
, I came to ask for it again, with an average of two boxes a month. Fortunately, Sun Wencheng donated more than a dozen boxes at once. If he continues at this rate, he will be eaten to death in less than a year! Wen Xi has a big belly, so
She asked Qinglan to take out all the Fushou poultice from the bottom of the box and gave it to Nanny Lu for delivery. Now that the palace documents were in the hands of the Queen Mother, Xiaozhuang didn't care about anything anymore! He only focused on taking the Fushou poultice.
There was no movement in the Yonghe Palace, and it was so quiet that Wen Xi felt particularly uneasy. With the Wuya family's connections in the harem, it was impossible that they could not find out that Xiaozhuang was taking Fushou pills for so long, and yet he didn't do anything at all.
No. The most important thing for Wen Xi right now is her belly. She scanned the nails inside and out several times and eliminated anything suspicious. The month is getting bigger and bigger, so we have to be careful. And Kangxi is having a headache due to the drought in the south.
I don't care about the harem anymore, I haven't done much digging lately.
Wen Xi has received a lot of baby clothes now. The Zhaojia family and Zhang Jia family in her palace have made a lot of them. Wen Xi can't worry about dealing with the ones that Liu in the nobleman's house promised to make. And then there's the matter.
Concubines Cheng, Xuan, and Shen all asked Chang Zai in their palace to agree to do it, and then the noble Song family, the noble family Guarjia, etc. There were a lot of clothes for children from birth to two or three years old.
Well, there’s no need for Wen Xi to do it herself! Well, of course, Wen Xi couldn’t get away with that little bit of girly red, so she just felt too lazy and didn’t embroider it, and it would be embarrassing to embroider it!
"This is my first birth, so it will inevitably be a bit harder." Shu Shujue Luo was finally able to pass the sign to the palace. Looking at Wen Xi who could only walk slowly, she couldn't help but comforted, "Waiting for the second birth, the third
The fetus is much better."
The corner of Wen Xi's mouth twitched, one was enough for her! Moreover, the Dantian, which had been filled up with great effort recently, was sucked up by this little thing again! Wen Xi was so depressed that she died. The days were very hot, and it was even more difficult to bear a big belly at night.
Fortunately, I can always take the opportunity to run into the space to cool down a little. It’s not easy to endure during the day, so I can only walk in the morning when it’s still fresh. After walking twice, Wen Xi felt a layer of sweat on her forehead, and then
Walking into the pavilion, he sat on the cushioned stone bench opposite Shu Shujue Luo and rested.
Shu Shujue Luo Shi looked at her warm belly, which was round and round, and said: "It doesn't matter if the first child is a princess, it will bloom first and then bear fruit. The second girl in Chuangxin is about to turn one year old, but it's a pity that Shouxili can only make a hasty decision.
Let’s do it.” The second girl is the sister-in-law’s daughter. Although so many people were looking forward to a son and grandson, they finally gave birth to a princess. Because she was under one year old, she hadn’t named her yet. Linge is now the son of Ye Bilong.
Naturally, I had to observe filial piety for twenty-seven months, and I was afraid that I would feel regretful that I could not have a son at one stroke.
Shu Shujueluo asked: "Is Mr. He still loyal to your empress?"
Wen Xi pinched a grape from the lotus-leaf high plate with a colorful picture of a baby playing on the table, peeled it and ate it, "She is peaceful, so of course I don't bother to embarrass her." Wen Xi was only indifferent to the noble man, she
It's also quite interesting.
Shu Shujue Luo Shi smiled and said, "That's all right. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about the old lady and take special care of her."
Wen Xi ate the sour grapes in her mouth, enjoying it very much, "Don't worry, Mother, I know what's appropriate. There are many concubines in the palace. When I can't sleep with you, no one is too favored. At least my status is here, no one
Which concubine dares to cause trouble for me?" The concubine's problem is naturally not a big one. The big problem is Xiaozhuang. They are all addicted to taking Fushou ointment, and they don't forget to ask people to nudge the concubine to contact Aunt Zheng.
She drugged her, but fortunately, Nanny Zheng had already been held by Wen Xi for seven inches, and she reported to Wen Xi secretly early on.
"On the contrary, Song'er and Zhu'er's marriage has been carefully planned." Wen Xi licked her face and said with a smile.
Shu Shujueluo said: "It's not a big deal at first, but -" She looked at Song and Zhu and saw that Song and Zhu were not there before continuing: "Although Song and Zhu are both loyal, they are just two maids after all. Why should the empress bother so much?
"In her opinion, a slave is a slave, and loyalty is a matter of course.
There was a soft smile on the corner of her gentle mouth: "I treat Song'er, Zhu'er, and Mei'er so kindly, and all the people in Chengqian Palace see it, and I just want them to know that as long as they are loyal, they will not care.
If you are treated badly, then those who come up from below will be more loyal!"
"Your Majesty has foresight and foresight. I feel relieved." Listening to her daughter's very reasonable way of winning people's hearts, Shu Shujueluo felt relieved. She asked again: "I heard that the Empress Dowager is not in good health? This morning I
When I went to Cining Palace to pay my respects, Aunt Su said that the Empress Dowager’s phoenix body was against the rules and she didn’t see her. “This is the rule. When a married woman enters the palace, she must first kowtow to the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother before she can see the concubines.
, this is the rule of respecting elders and younger ones that cannot be ignored.
Wen Xi couldn't tell E Niang what was going on, so she just said: "After all, I'm getting older, and it's okay to feel a little unwell. Now the Queen Mother is in charge of the memorandum. The Queen Mother is kind-hearted, so E Niang can come to the palace to see me more often.
."
Shu Shujueluo nodded, "Although the Queen Mother is not very fluent in Manchu, she is extremely charitable." She only kowtowed outside Cining Palace, then went to Ningshou Palace to kowtow to Queen Mother Xiaohui and talk for a while.
In a while.
While they were talking, Xiao Quanzi, the imperial minister, came and reported that Kangxi had come to have lunch at noon. Shu Shujue Luo looked at the sky and said with a smile, "Then I'll leave first."
Wen Xi hurriedly pulled E Niang's sleeve and said: "It's okay, the emperor is just here to have a meal, E Niang doesn't have to be taboo!"
Shu Shujue Luo Shi clapped her gentle hand and said, "If you have the opportunity, you must cultivate a relationship with the emperor. What will it look like if I stay here? Anyway, there will be many opportunities to pass the sign to the palace in the future."
Kangxi came over at noon as usual, ate a bowl of iced lotus root starch dumplings to relieve the heat, and then asked, "Why did my mother-in-law leave so soon?"
Mother-in-law? Wen Xi raised her eyebrows, that’s right! But according to Galudai, the wife’s mother is the mother-in-law, and the concubine’s mother naturally does not deserve this title. But this was the first time Kangxi was in front of Wen Xi,
This is how we call Shu Shujue Luo.
Wen Xi only said: "The heat is severe, and I'm afraid it will get even hotter after noon, so E Niang left early."
Kangxi hummed and said: "It's the hottest time of the year. Your mother-in-law has to wear thick court clothes to enter the palace. Naturally, you have to be careful of catching the heat. I remember the last time I saw your mother-in-law, she was in the palace.
It will be after the sealing of Garuda."
As he spoke, Kangxi's words contained a hint of reminiscence, "Actually, you and Garudai have slightly similar eyes, but their personalities are very different. Garudai is bright and lively, and you are delicate and lovely." Then he smiled.
He said, "Of course I like you more!"
A look of embarrassment appeared on Wen Xi's face. Kangxi never liked such words on his lips! I don't know what happened today.
Kangxi seemed to like Wen Xi's expression very much, so he couldn't help but continue: "Garudai is a phoenix, very arrogant, you are a swan, white and flawless, pure and unstained by dirt!"
Flawless? Pure? Wen Xi couldn't help but laugh in her heart, is there such a person in the palace? Even Xuan Bin had to get into the quagmire, let alone her who tried her best? Or her acting skills were too good, even
Kangxi was deceived? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
