Inheriting a Legacy and Traveling to Ancient Times

In her previous life, Zhao Qingyan grew up in an orphanage. She unexpectedly activated a pocket dimension and began hoarding supplies. After spending all her savings, an accident transported her to...

Chapter 724 Sending Flowers (Unedited)

Zhao Minggeng was already quite a heavy drinker, but he also knew that he needed to stay sober on his wedding night.

He had his son, son-in-law, and the managers of Huicui Pavilion politely decline the toasts offered by everyone.

He only drank two glasses as a token gesture.

Zhao Qingyan naturally accompanied the princess with Fu Nan.

Several younger princesses also came in to check if the eldest princess was being well taken care of.

Guests were toasting and drinking in the front yard, while the sound of clinking glasses echoed continuously in the new house in the back yard.

However, considering the princess's desire for offspring, fruit juice and milk were served in the backyard instead of alcohol.

In the past, if the princess wanted to eat the food prepared by Huicui Pavilion, she would have to ask someone to pack it up. Now, the food is prepared directly in her own kitchen.

The princess liked the taste very much and ate more than she expected.

The princess was a little embarrassed because she had eaten too much.

Seeing Zhao Qingyan and her daughter eating, the princess felt relieved.

No matter how much she eats, it's only one bowl of rice. Fu Nan, such a small child, can't stop eating two bowls of rice plus a lot of vegetables.

Thinking of the mother and daughter's great strength, the princess couldn't help but feel envious.

"Dong Sheng's wife, is it really true that your family has such extraordinary strength, that only one person in a lifetime can produce such a person?"

Zhao Qingyan swallowed the food in her mouth, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief,

"This innate superhuman strength comes from my grandmother."

In my grandma's generation, only my grandma was strong, then my dad, me, and then Fu Nan.

However, I don't think it's entirely certain.

It's just a matter of probability; anything is possible.

Just in case, I mean just in case, the princess and my father could have a baby; there's a chance they might have some superhuman strength.

However, taking care of a child with superhuman strength is quite exhausting.

Those small arms and legs were surprisingly strong.

We must teach him to control his strength from a young age.

Like my daughter, Fu Nan, I raised her all by myself, without ever using a maid.

Therefore, until now, none of the servants know that my daughter Fu Nan was born with superhuman strength.

All I know is that my daughter is a good-for-nothing, just like her mother.

Princess Yan Yue rolled her eyes at Zhao Qingyan.

"You unreliable person, how could you talk about your own daughter like that?"

"It's fortunate you're Fu'nan's biological mother, otherwise I would definitely suspect you're trying to ruin Fu'nan's reputation."

Zhao Qingyan laughed heartily.

"Who cares about them? No matter how much my daughter Fu can eat, she's still eating rice from the Xu family. What does it have to do with outsiders?"

If in the future, someone hesitates to come because my daughter eats a lot, I can only say that person is unlucky and short-sighted.

So what if I eat a lot? I'm healthy.

Besides, where will you get the energy if you don't eat more?

The princess nodded, "However, it's best to keep Fu Nan's innate superhuman strength a secret."

Isn't it great to play dumb and outsmart others?

Zhao Qingyan nodded, "Indeed, anyone who dares to mess with my daughter will be beaten until they question their existence."

However, with my daughter's current wealth and status, I doubt any fool would dare to mess with her.

Indeed, Fu Nan's circumstances are now vastly different from before. Her biological father is the emperor's nephew, and her biological mother is a princess's stepdaughter, especially since that princess is her cousin.

This little girl can walk sideways now and no one dares to mess with her.

Yan Yue looked at Zhao Qingyan's belly and felt envious again.

I wonder when I'll be able to get pregnant?

Zhao Qingyan smiled, leaned close to the princess's ear and whispered a few words, only to be poked on the forehead by the princess.

“Married women are different from unmarried girls; they can say all sorts of lewd things.”

After finishing the meal with the princess, he called someone in to clean up.

Zhao Qingyan suggested that the princess take a bath and then rest well, since the wedding night is quite tiring.

The princess was quite curious as it was her first time using the Zhao family's bathhouse.

While rinsing myself with warm water, I exclaimed that this was the first time in years I had ever felt so refreshed while taking a bath.

Even at the princess's residence, no matter how extravagant one's lifestyle, a bath is nothing more than a tub of water plus another tub of water to rinse off the foam.

Nowhere else can she get soaked however she wants, like she does now.

This princess has a very childlike mischievousness.

The warm night spent under the red silk curtains, Zhao Minggeng and the princess's wedding night was clearly harmonious.

The princess even suspected that she and the prince consort had entered into a sham marriage.

This was an unprecedented experience—exhilarating, refreshing, and tingling—causing the princess to groan involuntarily.

The next day, the princess woke up naturally.

When she woke up, Zhao Minggeng was no longer by her side.

Today we are to go to the palace to express our gratitude.

After the princess finished washing up, Zhao Minggeng came in carrying a bunch of flowers from the back garden.

He presented the flowers to the princess.

“My lady, these flowers are very fresh, so I picked them to give to you.”

Zhao Minggeng, with an air of seeking praise, pleased the princess.

This is no longer the doctor who could fight bravely against the local lords; he looks like a child who hasn't grown up.

The princess took the flowers, smelled them, and asked, "My lord, have you had breakfast?"

Zhao Minggeng naturally accepted the offer, saying, "Then I'll give my wife some more."

Zhao Minggeng didn't call Yan Yue "Princess," and Yan Yue didn't call Zhao Minggeng "Prince Consort." The two interacted like an ordinary married couple.

This actually adds a touch of everyday life to the feeling.

This feeling of complete relaxation was something the princess had never experienced at her previous weddings.

When Zhao Minggeng married the princess, it shocked everyone, whether it was Zhao Qianci and his wife in Lingnan Prefecture or the Zhao brothers in the Northwest and Northeast.

I never imagined that two people who are completely unrelated could end up together, especially given their different generations.

Prince Rui's face is like a palette of colors; his third uncle has become his brother-in-law. Who could feel more distressed than him?

Zhao Qinglin was both amused and exasperated; this was truly a chaotic situation.

She even prayed that her third uncle wouldn't have another baby, otherwise, what would they call it?

Should his son call him "cousin" or "uncle"?

Regardless of what others think, Zhao Minggeng and the princess are living a blissful life together.

A month later, Princess Yanyue was diagnosed with pregnancy.

This was an incredibly joyous occasion for Yan Yue, who desperately wanted a child.

Zhao Minggeng, however, looked somewhat worried.

For no other reason than that he had heard that childbirth was like going through the gates of hell for a woman.

Especially considering Princess Yan Yue's age, even in later generations with advanced medical care, she would be considered an older mother.

If I don't understand something, I ask my daughter.

Zhao Qingyan does indeed have books about pregnant women and new mothers.

However, because the book was written in simplified Chinese characters, Zhao Minggeng had to visit his daughter's house for three consecutive days to finish copying a pregnancy handbook.

Since their marriage, Zhao Minggeng has been inseparable from the princess.

Now that the princess has been diagnosed with pregnancy, Zhao Minggeng has been nowhere to be seen, which makes people wonder.
