In a world ravaged by catastrophe, the formidable Ye Wanwan is suddenly transmigrated to the Qing Dynasty. After her experiences in the apocalypse, Ye Wanwan no longer trusts anyone.

She was ...

Chapter 116 Yinzhen the Little Glutton

After Wanwan woke up, she saw Yinzhen sitting on the blanket playing marbles.

Perhaps his third brother brought these marbles back from overseas? (This is made up; the author didn't even know marbles existed in the Qing Dynasty.)

When Yinzhen saw that Wanwan was awake, he immediately put down his marbles and went to the bedside. "Mother, you're awake?"

Wanwan: "Hmm, has Xiao Si always been with Mother?"

Yinzhen: "No, I went to see my younger brother with my second brother earlier. After dinner, my second brother went back to Yuqing Palace first, and I stayed with Mother the whole time."

Seeing that Wanwan was awake, Tingyu immediately came in and asked, "Your Highness, how are you feeling?"

As for Wanwan's feelings, she felt that apart from being a little tired, everything was fine. The system's medicine was really good; not only did the pain decrease, but her physical strength was also not greatly diminished.

Wanwan: "It's alright. I'm hungry. I'll go get some food."

Now Wanwan can practically lie in bed like a corpse, because her meals are delivered to her bed and she's even fed.

However, she had just given birth and couldn't eat anything too oily or salty, so she could only eat light food. Then Tingyu brought over a bowl of chicken soup, which looked quite light, but the ingredients used to make it were really precious.

This bowl of chicken soup is very nourishing.

After finishing the chicken soup, Wanwan thought she could drink a few more bowls. However, although she could drink several bowls, the people around her didn't know, so she only drank one bowl before the imperial physician's medicine arrived.

Yinzhen looked at the chicken soup his mother was drinking and thought it smelled delicious. He wanted to drink some too. Seeing Yinzhen's greedy look, Wanwan asked Tingfeng to bring him some more to try.

Listening to the rain, "The Empress's medicine has arrived."

This medicine is for relieving breast engorgement after childbirth. It was mainly because children in the Qing Dynasty were raised with great care, and children from wealthy families were rarely breastfed.

Most of them hired wet nurses, so this medicine was used to relieve engorgement and pain, or to stop lactation.

As for Wanwan, she is an ability user, and the system also has many good medicines, so she is naturally not worried about the health of the child she gives birth to. In addition, not having to breastfeed is also a good thing for her.

Wanwan said, "Give it to me."

After Wanwan took the medicine, she definitely gulped it down in one go, not sip by sip. She felt like it was torture, because Chinese medicine is so hard to drink (actually, the author had drunk Chinese medicine before, and if she could drink it sip by sip, that would be really awesome).

After taking the medicine, I continued to rest. After all, in other people's eyes, I had just given birth and didn't have much energy, so I should be considered quite tired.

A short while later, Tingfeng brought over Wanwan's chicken soup. Yinzhen looked at the chicken soup that was brought in, smelled the aroma, and unconsciously swallowed.

Wanwan smiled as she looked at Yinzhen's gluttonous expression.

What to do? It's so cute when kids do that!

Wanwan said, "Drink up. This was specially made by your mother during her pregnancy. It's very nourishing, but you can't drink too much."

Yinzhen immediately went to drink, saying, "Yes, Mother, I'll just have a couple of sips. I won't drink any more, don't worry."

After drinking the chicken soup, Yinzhen's first thought was that it was really delicious, and he wanted to have another sip. However, Wanwan watched him drink a few sips and then stopped him from finishing it.

Chicken soup is too nourishing, and Yinzhen has already eaten dinner. If he eats too much, he may have trouble sleeping.

Wanwan: "Yinzhen just promised Mother he would only drink two sips, but you've already drunk half of it. You're not keeping your word."

Yinzhen looked reluctant to part with the chicken soup, but he still put it down.

Yinzhen said, "Then Mother, I won't drink it."

Looking at Yinzheng's reluctant yet helpless expression, Wanwan said gently, "It's not that your mother doesn't want you to drink more, but that chicken soup was specially made by your mother after giving birth. It contains a lot of tonics, and you, as a small child, can't handle drinking too much. Besides, you've already had dinner. If you eat more, you won't be able to sleep tonight. Do you want to get up in the middle of the night and have diarrhea?"

Yinzhen was terrified at the mention of diarrhea. He had experienced this before. His mother had prepared some delicious snacks for him, which he secretly ate at night. He ended up eating too much and was woken up by stomach pain in the middle of the night.

Yinzhen said, "Mother, I will not drink anymore. I will definitely listen to you from now on."

Looking at Yinzhen's frightened expression, Wanwan said with amusement, "You can eat more during the day, but you must not eat too much at night, understand?"

Yinzhen said, "My son knows."

After the mother and son talked for a while, Wanwan got sleepy and wanted to continue sleeping. In addition, she had just given birth, so it was normal for her to be tired.

So they moved his son back to the side hall to sleep. There was no other way; nightlife was scarce in ancient times, and there was little entertainment, so they had to go to bed early.

However, going to bed early is also good for Wanwan.

Of course, after Yinzhen left, Wanwan didn't go to sleep immediately. Instead, she asked about the child's condition. She couldn't just wake up and not even bother to ask about the child.

Wanwan asked, "How is the child?"

"Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince is very healthy, and he was born with fair and tender skin."

After hearing what Tingyu said, Tingfeng also chimed in, "Yes, Your Majesty, and the Emperor has even given the Sixth Prince a name; he's already been included in the order of seniority."

Wanwan: "Oh, you've already named her so early. I thought we'd have to wait until the full moon."

Wanwan never thought that Kangxi would name her when she turned one year old; she thought he would name her when she turned one month old.

After all, she and Kangxi were getting along very well and were relaxed, and Kangxi liked her quite a bit, so it was a case of loving the house because of the child that he named the baby when the baby was a month old.

Unexpectedly, she rose to prominence right after giving birth, which means she has gained even more importance in Emperor Kangxi's heart.

Wanwan: "What name did the Emperor give to the sixth prince?"

Tingyu said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor said that the Sixth Prince will be named Yinyu in the future."

Although "listening to the rain and the wind" means recognizing characters, it doesn't necessarily mean being well-read. Therefore, the meaning behind "Yinyu" is unknown. However, it's likely that the name the Emperor gave to the Sixth Prince had a good connotation, given how much the Emperor loved his Empress.

"Yinyu is a good name. It seems that the Emperor has high hopes for Yinyu."

Wanwan: "Where's the child? Has he reported to the side hall yet?"

Tingyu said, "Yes, Your Majesty. After the child was born, the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager saw him and then sent him to the side hall. The wet nurse has already fed him and he is sleeping now. If Your Majesty wants to see the Sixth Prince, perhaps this servant can go and hold him."

Wanwan said, "Since you're asleep, there's no need to hold you anymore. I can look at you again tomorrow. I'm tired anyway."

My darlings, I feel so awful (?_?). I don't know if I have a cold or I'm sick. My throat has been sore for three or four days, and then I have the same symptoms as a cold.

I wish you all good health and freedom from all viruses.
