The months passed by quickly like running water, and in a blink of an eye, we entered the warm spring of April.
Zhao Xiyan has been pregnant for more than five months, and her belly is getting bigger quickly like a balloon.
That month, the eldest aunt Sun brought her little cousin Zhao Queyu to visit her. Zhao Suxin was pregnant and could go into labor at any time. She was not allowed to go out at will, and the bright moon did not come.
Zhao Xiyan was very happy to see her mother's family. She held Mrs. Sun's arm with one leg and pulled her little cousin into the bedroom to shut up.
A housekeeper mother with a mediocre appearance in her forties followed Sun with a low eyebrow and entered the bedroom of the Princess of Beihai. She was not eye-catching or ostentatious at all.
After closing the door, the female doctor dressed as a steward mother came forward to diagnose Zhao Xiyan's pulse.
Mrs. Sun looked around with concern on her face. After the female doctor checked her pulse, she went to ask, "Did the concubine's pregnancy go smoothly?"
The experienced female doctor responded with a smile: "To tell you what to say to my wife, the imperial concubine's pulse is stable and her complexion is rosy. Her pregnancy has been well maintained."
Mrs. Sun then breathed a sigh of relief and gave the female doctor a purse with a smile. The female doctor thanked her for her kindness and quietly left.
There was an imperial doctor in the Beihai Palace who asked for Zhao Xiyan's pulse every month. Mrs. Sun brought a female doctor to the house and secretly checked Zhao Xiyan's pulse, otherwise she would not feel at ease.
Zhao Xiyan laughed softly and said, "Let Auntie worry about it."
Sun smiled and said: "That little thing is not worth mentioning, so what kind of worry is it?"
Zhao Queyu took over the conversation with a smile: "He wishes he could come more frequently. Staying in the house for a whole month is boring and boring."
Mrs. Sun was so angry and funny that she stretched out her legs and pinched Zhao Queyu's ears: "My girl will be haircut in a few months, so she can't be so naughty."
Zhao Queyu cried out in pain: "It hurts, it hurts! Please twist off my ears!"
Sun had no choice but to let go of her legs, smiled and sighed at Zhao Xiyan: "Quieyu is half as calm as me, and he is so happy that he can't sleep."
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled: "Seventh cousin has a pure heart, is innocent and lively, and is cruel to others. My eldest aunt is very dissatisfied and is too greedy."
Zhao Queyu was so praised that he beamed: "It's true that my sixth cousin is very discerning!"
Mrs. Sun couldn't help but rub her forehead, and turned to Zhao Xiyan and said, "She looks like that, and it's natural to be in the boudoir. He doesn't care about her as his own mother, and he will do whatever he wants to dote on her. But she will eventually get married when she grows up.
One day, Yuehou married into her husband's family. How could she be so indulgent as my mother-in-law?"
"When he thought about it, he was so worried that he couldn't sleep in the morning."
It can be seen that my mother has been worried for several years.
Zhao Xiyan laughed: "Seventh cousin is very young, it's too early for aunt to worry about this! From his point of view, seventh cousin is very lucky. In the future, she will definitely marry a good husband who loves her, and someone who cherishes her as such.
My daughter’s wonderful mother-in-law.”
Zhao Queyu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he happily grabbed Zhao Xiyan's leg: "That's right, that's right, he didn't think so."
While they were chatting and joking, Haitang hurriedly came in: "To inform the Imperial Concubine, the Zhao Mansion has sent someone to deliver a message. The fifth girl has a stomachache."
Zhao Xiyan stood up suddenly.
The overjoyed Sun immediately stood up: "Oh, what a coincidence. It happens to be launched under the bright moon. He has to go back immediately."
Zhao Xiyan said without hesitation: "He will go too."
Zhao Xiyan and Zhao Suxin were biological cousins. They had grown up together since childhood and had a deep relationship. When Zhao Suxin gave birth, Zhao Xiyan was worried, so she naturally asked for permission to go.
Mrs. Sun didn't stop her, so she told her, "I'm pregnant, so I can't enter the delivery room, lest I be rushed by my blood and destroy the blessing of the child in my belly."
Zhao Xiyan nodded obediently and responded to Dong.
The Beihai Prince's Mansion and the Zhao Mansion are not too far apart, and they can be reached in half an hour by horse-drawn carriage.
As soon as Zhao Xiyan stepped onto the threshold of the Zhao Mansion, she heard the good news that her cousin had given birth to Dong's son safely. She suddenly felt relieved. She turned to Mrs. Sun and said with a smile, "Cousin, the birth was really smooth."
From the onset of abdominal pain to the delivery of the baby, it only took less than two hours. It was extremely smooth.
Mrs. Sun smiled happily and said, "Let's go and have a look together."
…
The delivery room is located in Zhao Suxin's yard.
Zhao Suxin was exhausted after giving birth and was falling asleep. Wu Shao, the newly born father, was happily holding his newborn son and looking left and right.
As soon as Zhao Xiyan and others arrived, Wu Shao immediately held up the child to show off: "Look, how handsome his son is."
Zhao Xiyan took a look with a smile.
It's bright red, like a little monkey, how beautiful is it?
Zhao Xiyan was very kind, but Zhao Queyu was not so polite. He exclaimed: "Is that little monkey his nephew?"
Wu Shao was so angry that he glared at his wife and sister: "What a little monkey, Mingming is so handsome."
Mrs. Sun came over to take a look, holding back her laughter and echoed: "When a child is born, his whole body will be red like that. After a few months, the red skin will fade away, and he will be completely red."
Wu Shao listened carefully and grinned: "The eldest aunt is right. The midwife also said that just now. He has already thought about it. He has left the child's name to his grandfather. When he comes up with the nickname, he will be called Jun.
brothers."
Zhao Queyu whispered to Zhao Xiyan and said with a smile: "Why don't you call me Little Monkey? It's fun and smooth."
Needless to say, the little monkey is really more fluent.
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled softly. She looked at the red baby in Wu Shao's arms and looked down at her bulging belly.
In a few months, the child in her belly will be born. I don’t know if it’s a son or a daughter, and whether he looks like her or not like Xu Jing.
When she thought of her children, Zhao Xiyan's heart softened like a pool of spring water.
Less than half a month later, Zhao Suxin woke up from her sleep. When she opened her eyes, she didn't bother to shut up with the people beside the bed, and said hurriedly: "Where is his child?"
Wu Shao immediately carried his son to the bed.
Zhao Suxin took a look and was quite disappointed: "He worked hard to conceive for ten months, and then he gave birth to such a little monkey?"
Wu Shao: "..."
Zhao Xiyan and others laughed happily and bent over.
Wu Shao protested in a low voice: "Their son is so handsome, but he doesn't look like a little monkey. He has already decided that his nickname will be Brother Jun."
Zhao Suxin ignored him at all and said to Zhao Xiyan, "Yue Ya'er, you can't just walk and lie down when you're pregnant. You have to walk around more. After six months of pregnancy, he was in the hospital every month."
Walk twice in Xuanli. The birth of the bright moon will go smoothly."
"My belly is much bigger than his back then, so I have to be careful."
Why did Chen, the Crown Princess of Yingchuan, have a difficult delivery? Is it because she ate too well in the palace and rarely moved, so she had to have her fetus raised in the dormitory every month. It turned out that the baby in her belly was too big to be born. In the past,
He ended up in a miserable place where he had to be disemboweled.
If Zhao Xiyan's belly is getting bigger every month, how can everyone not be worried?
Zhao Xiyan had a vague premonition in her heart, but she couldn't say it clearly, and she didn't want to brush off Zhao Suxin's kindness, so she smiled and nodded in agreement.
