”There's no need. It's fine to leave this sort of thing for a servant to do. Stay here and chat with me. It's rather boring for me to be pregnant.” Madam Xiao raised her hand to stop Aunt Ling, a smile on her face as she spoke.
”...” ”Yes.”
Fuan Courtyard.
Lian Ru Yue and Lian Fu stayed for dinner.
After three months of pregnancy, the First Wife's health had become much more robust. Imperial Physician Rong would come every once in a while to check her pulse and protect her fetus. Ever since the incident with the thieves, Lian Mother and Lian Yanqing had simultaneously dispatched more guards to protect the Eldest Wife's health.
”Yue Er, your hand has already recovered. Does it still hurt?” the First Lady asked with concern as she personally scooped a bowl of soup for Lian Ruyue.
”Mother, I'm fully recovered. There's no need to worry. It's just a scratch.” Lian Ruyue raised her hand and raised it up as she spoke.
The first wife frowned and said, ”It's so dangerous to fall from a cliff and come back with wounds everywhere. You still say it's just a scratch, child, I really don't know what to say about you. How can there be a girl who isn't afraid of pain and isn't afraid of death?”
The first wife lived in seclusion and didn't know that Lian Ruyue was being hunted down. She always thought that she fell down accidentally.
Mother, who said I'm not afraid of death? I'm scared to death, I don't want to die at all. Lian Ruyue laughed out loud.
”Child, I'm telling you this and you're telling me that. You're really going to worry me to death. I'm going to grow up next year. I really don't know which family's young master will dare to marry you home.” The First Lady replied with both pity and love.
When Ruyue heard this, the hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly. It seemed that her mother didn't know what the emperor was planning. How could Lian Yanqing dare to accept anyone's proposal?
”Mother, don't blame elder sister. It's all Yi'er's fault. He called her out to ride the horse, but he didn't protect her well and made her suffer so much.” After that day, he diligently trained every day, not slacking for even a single day.
”Sigh, my heart is beating so fast, I wonder if it would be better if you got married.” The first wife caressed her heart and said.
”Alright, alright, I am fine now, right? Mother, Yi'er, both of you don't need to worry anymore. Hurry up and eat up, there's so much delicious food, I want to eat it all. ” Lian Ruyue lowered her head to drink the soup.
After leaving Fuan Courtyard, Lian Meng first sent Lianyue back to the Immortal Lotus Courtyard before returning to the Wenhua Courtyard. Lianyue urged him to rest early.
After Lian Lian Fu left, Yun Xiang carried a cup of water forward and passed it in front of Lian Ruyue. ”Eldest Miss, drink some water.”
”Cough, cough …” At this moment, the young woman with the washbasin coughed twice.
”Are you sick?” Lian Ruyue asked.
”Eldest Miss, my throat feels a bit uncomfortable these two days. I don't know what's going on.” As Fairy said this, she coughed twice.
”Then don't stay here to wait on me, go back and rest.” Lian Ruyue said.
”Yes, your servant will take his leave.” As Fairy Qingdai spoke, she couldn't help but cast a glance at the incense, as a complicated expression appeared in her eyes.
As for the incense standing behind Lian Ruyue, she took off the golden hairpin on her head. She didn't notice Qing Di's glance in the slightest. A faint smile even appeared on her lips.
Qingdai coughed because she was allergic to peanuts. She coughed when she ate them, and a few days before the incense dropped, she secretly added peanut water to her food, just to keep her out of the way.
But now, it seemed that he had succeeded.
”Liangxiang, serve me a rest tonight.” Lian Ru Yue ordered as she looked at the book in her hands, her gaze never leaving Scroll.
”Yes, this servant obeys.”
