Jin Lingyi went out after breakfast, and the sky, which had been cloudy for a long time, finally cleared up.
In Wu Qiqi's yard, her father Wu Yang walked in.
"The old man is here, please come in quickly." A woman saw him and invited him in quickly.
Wu Yang said a few polite words and walked in. Wu Qiqi had just woken up and her expression was not good.
"Qiqi, how are you feeling now?" Wu Yang asked.
Wu Qiqi made a few gestures to express that she was okay.
"Take this," Wu Yang handed her a packet of medicinal powder when no one else was around, "You can't save your pregnancy, so you just blame Jin Lingyi."
Wu Qiqi's hands were shaking a little, but she finally took it.
"We are sent here by the master to do things, and we cannot have any personal relationships," Wu Yang lowered his voice and said, "Our uncle and nephew were about to starve to death. If it weren't for the master, we wouldn't be alive today."
It turns out that he and Wu Qiqi are not father and daughter, but uncle and nephew.
Wu Qiqi nodded seriously. Even though she felt guilty for the second prince and her unborn child, it was difficult to balance them both.
"I'll go find Nanny Du again," Wu Yang said without saying anything, "and ask her to help us make things smooth."
Jin Lingyi comes to see Lan Ning.
"How are you feeling, sister these days?" Jin Lingyi saw that Lan Ning was already pregnant.
"I think it's okay. I heard that you made a big fuss, but if you bear with it a little longer, you'll be much better after three months." Lan Ning is someone who has been there and has more experience than Jin Lingyi.
"I heard that His Highness Wu Wu has been ill these days, is he feeling better?" Jin Lingyi asked.
"It's not a serious illness, it's more about avoiding trouble and avoiding suspicion." Lan Ning smiled, "As you know, now is the time when the storm is at its peak. Many people, I don't know whether intentionally or unintentionally, have come to
Come and flatter us. We are afraid of being flattered, so we have no choice but to claim to be sick."
"Yes! No one can tell what the emperor is thinking now," Jin Lingyi murmured, "We are worried all day long, for fear that if we are not careful, we will be implicated in the Yao family's affairs."
"It shouldn't be anything big," Lan Ning said with certainty, "otherwise, why would we let His Highness get involved in investigating the Yao family's affairs."
"I hope so!" Jin Lingyi sighed, and turned around to persuade Lan Ning, "Cousin, don't worry too much. Looking at these princes, His Highness the Fifth is the most popular. Besides, you haven't entered the palace recently.
Want to see Hengzhao? Ask her for advice."
"I went, but I didn't see Heng Zhao twice. I heard that she was ill." Lan Ning lowered her eyes slightly, "She is in the Dowager Palace now, so I can't be too casual."
Jin Lingyi couldn't ask any more questions, so he had to distract him with something else.
"I'm afraid my sister doesn't know that Aunt Wu in our house is also pregnant," Jin Lingyi said.
"She entered the mansion more than a year before you did," Lan Ning said, "I never heard of anything happening before."
"The Second Highness has said that we will wait until her pregnancy is stable before telling the public." Jin Lingyi sighed softly, "I'm worried that something will happen here. I always feel that she is not reliable."
"According to me, you might as well go back to your parents' house to live for a while." Lan Ning gave her an idea, "You are also your first child, so don't you worry about letting your aunt take care of you? Just leave the housekeeping affairs directly to the housekeeper and the housekeeper's wife.
Nothing can be blamed on you."
"Yes! If it doesn't work out, I'll pack up and go back to my parents' house in the next two days." Jin Lingyi said, "I'm really exhausted from this child's troubles."
"It's a rare occasion for you to come here and stay with me for a longer time." Lan Ning said, "I'll ask them to make some light and delicious meals."
Just as Huang Changsun woke up from his sleep, the wet nurse led him over.
"Lin'er is really getting more and more popular the longer he grows." When Jin Lingyi saw the emperor's eldest grandson, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pull him over and looked him up and down. "It's only been a few days since I last saw him, and he has grown a lot taller."
"He is getting more and more naughty now," Lan Ning shook her head. "The more he is not allowed to do something, the more he does it. Yesterday he had to play with water, which made his sleeves and skirts all wet and he had to take them off."
"That's how little kids are. They like to play in water. But the weather is cold at this time, so you have to be careful." Jin Lingyi said, "Wet clothes can easily cause rashes on the body."
At this time, the wet nurse pointed at Jin Lingyi's belly and asked the emperor's eldest grandson with a smile: "Do you think the baby in the second prince's belly is a brother or a sister?"
People usually like to tease children under the age of five with this, saying that they can see things that adults cannot.
"They are two younger brothers." The emperor's eldest grandson blurted out.
"Ouch!" Everyone couldn't help but clapped their hands and laughed when they heard this.
"Twins, that's really amazing!" Lan Ning said with a smile, "How lucky you are to be reincarnated and raise twins."
"It would be great if that's the case. It doesn't matter whether you're a man or a woman." Jin Lingyi said, "If you have twins, they won't be born until May."
"When are you going to stop giving birth? Don't listen to their nonsense. Why does it matter how many months you have to give birth?" Lan Ning comforted Jin Lingyi, "Whether it's one or two, whether it's a son or a daughter, they are all his own flesh and blood.
.
But you are still young and can’t tell anything from your pulse. When you get older, Sun Yinjian of Tai Hospital will be able to tell whether you have twins from your pulse.”
"Lin'er, look, is your mother and concubine carrying a younger brother or a younger sister?" Jin Lingyi asked the emperor's eldest grandson with a smile.
"I asked him a long time ago, and he said it was a sister." Lan Ning gently stroked her belly, "I really hope to have a daughter, it's so considerate."
"Sister is the luckiest. All her wishes will come true." Jin Lingyi envied Lan Ning very much.
"Forget everything else, I just hope that the things in front of me can pass quickly." Lan Ning said, "This winter is really difficult."
Jin Lingyi stayed at Lan Ning's house to eat and didn't go back until the second half of the day.
The housekeeper reported: "Master, not long after you left home in the morning, the wife of Xifu sent someone to say that she has not seen you for some days. There are several relatives from my hometown in the house, and they want to come and visit."
Jin Lingyi was very happy after hearing this: "Is it possible that my aunt and the others are here? I am also about to go back to my parents' house to stay for a few days!
His Highness has not come back for the past two days. I will discuss it with him later, and it is not easy to just go back on my own."
After hearing this, the housekeeper said: "I came back with His Highness's entourage during lunch, took some clothes and left. He said that he was staying in the palace these days and would not go back to his hometown.
According to the old slave, Master, please go back to your parents' home! After all, relatives are here, and it doesn't make sense for you not to go back and take a look.
There are no big things in this house, but we still have to take care of the little things!"
"What you said makes sense." Jin Lingyi thought that the second prince still didn't know how many days it would take to come back. Besides, this was not a big deal and we had to wait for him to come back before we could discuss it. "Then let's prepare some gifts for relatives.
