A possessive and obsessive Prince? A dark-bellied Princess Consort with the support of a system that grants mastery over both medicine and poison. A journey of mutual devotion...
Mobeichen, t...
"Why didn't you have the servants carry it? It's so heavy, don't tire yourself out." When Mo Beichen saw Yun Qingluo, he immediately left the two little ones behind, quickly walked over, took the plate from Yun Qingluo's hands, and placed it on the table.
Yun Qingluo glanced at the two bewildered little ones, chuckled slightly, walked over, and took the noodles from the plate.
"There are two eggs underneath, eat them while they're hot." Yun Qingluo handed the chopsticks to Mo Beichen.
She brought out her own bowl again. She had eaten dinner and osmanthus cake in the evening. She wasn't very hungry, but she just wanted to eat with A-Chen.
She made a bit too much. She served Ah Chen a bowl, and there was still another bowl in the pot, so she just served them all.
But Yun Qingluo clearly overestimated herself; she burped after only two or three bites.
Mo Beichen glanced up at her slightly, and Yun Qingluo felt a little embarrassed. "Ha, well, is it possible that I'm really full?"
Xiao Yi couldn't bear to look at the scene. "Tsk tsk tsk, it's true that pregnancy makes you stupid for three years. Oh no, the host has become an idiot. Poor Xiao Yi."
The clouds tilted down, "..."
Mo Beichen lowered his eyelids, but the smile in his eyes lingered.
Mo Beichen didn't eat the hot food, and ate his own bowl in big mouthfuls. When he saw the egg at the bottom of the bowl, he picked it out and fed it to Yun Qingluo first.
"Luo Luo has lost a lot of weight, she needs to eat more. Be good, eat this fried egg." Mo Beichen gently persuaded.
Yun Qingluo looked away. "Ugh, I'm not eating. I'm really full."
Mo Beichen insisted that Yun Qingluo eat it, so Yun Qingluo had no choice but to take two bites and pretend that she had eaten it.
When Mo Beichen tried to feed her again, Yun Qingluo refused to eat, even threatening him by saying she wouldn't eat breakfast the next day if he fed her again.
Mo Beichen then stopped, quickly finished his egg, and took Yun Qingluo's bowl to eat it.
Both of them were used to this scene.
After Mo Beichen finished eating, he even drank all the soup. Yun Qinglu tilted her head and asked, "Achen, are you full?"
Mo Beichen deliberately misinterpreted his wife's meaning, a wicked smile playing on his lips. "What? Does Luo Luo want to feed me something else?"
Yun Qingluo sensed the inappropriateness in Mo Beichen's words, blushed, and glared at him, but she also understood that this person had eaten his fill.
He probably ate too much, otherwise he wouldn't be teasing himself after a full meal, since he'll be the one suffering in the end.
Yun Qingluo stood up and stretched. "I'll have Yun Tao come in and tidy up, and have Yun Xin watch the two little ones. Let's go for a walk. I really ate too much and feel a bit unwell."
Mo Beichen nodded and pulled Yun Qingluo out.
After walking a few steps, Mo Beichen asked Yun Qingluo to wait a moment, then turned back. After a while, Mo Beichen came out again, this time with a cloak in his hand.
Mo Beichen carefully buttoned up Yun Qingluo's cloak, saying, "It's chilly at night, Luoluo should remind me."
"What's the connection between these two things?" Yun Qinglu tilted her head, looking at Mo Beichen's hand as he buttoned her clothes.
These hands have long, slender, and fair fingers, but upon closer inspection, calluses are visible, a result of years of handling swords and knives.
These are the hands that hold the sword and protect the peace of the Tianmo Kingdom.
Mo Beichen fastened his buttons, straightened up, flicked Yun Qingluo's nose, and chuckled, "How can it be alright? I have a bad memory, and Luoluo has to remind me to always have my cloak ready."
Yun Qingluo felt a warmth in her heart, remembering the clothes and cloak that Mo Beichen had personally prepared for her before her departure for the war at the Prince's mansion.
“Ah Chen, I really like all the clothes and cloaks you prepared. I even wore them home to show my father and mother, and they praised the prince for his good taste.”
Mo Beichen took Yun Qingluo's hand and walked along the path into the garden.
"Really? Isn't it because Luo Luo is beautiful that she looks good in anything?" Mo Beichen said softly, but his tone was one of certainty.
Yun Qingluo paused, realizing that the person's guess was quite accurate.
However, it's about half and half.
When she returned to the manor, her mother asked about it. She told her that A-Chen had specially prepared it, and her mother praised A-Chen for his good taste.
But the father, who seemed to feel neglected, said proudly, "That's only because my daughter is beautiful, so she looks good in anything."
This, of course, earned her a barrage of sarcastic remarks from her mother.
Yun Qingluo laughed out loud, recalling the scenes of her father and mother bickering.
Mo Beichen looked at Yun Qingluo with affection, squeezed her hand, and asked, "What are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so happily?"
Yun Qingluo stopped smiling. "I've thought of my parents. Ah Chen, shall we go home?"
When I left the capital, it was springtime, but when I returned, it was snowing heavily.
They really should go home.
Mo Beichen was moved. Should he go home?
What heartwarming words.
“Okay, let’s go home,” Mo Beichen said in a low voice.
When Yun Qingluo woke up the next day, she didn't see Mo Beichen.
The two little ones had already woken up in their cribs, staring intently at the little bells above their heads without crying or fussing.
Hearing the noise, Yun Tao and Yun Xin came in carrying hot water.
"It seems that the young master and young lady really like this bed. We must take it with us when we return to the capital." Yun Tao carried warm water to the bedside, wet a cloth, and began to wipe the faces of the two little ones.
Yunxin went to the bedside and helped Yun Qingluo get dressed, get up, and wash up.
Yun Qingluo sat down in front of the dressing table and asked with a smile, "Where is the Prince?"
As Yun Xin combed Yun Qingluo's hair, she replied, "The prince went to the military camp early this morning; he probably has important business to attend to."
Yun Qingluo, however, did not think so. She guessed that it was because she had mentioned going home last night, and Achen wanted to hurry up and finish dealing with things here so that he could set off as soon as possible.
Sure enough, at lunchtime, my eldest and second eldest brothers brought back news that they would be returning to the capital in three days.
Three days later...
Yun Qingluo was also a little excited.
This was the first time she had been away from the capital for so long, and she really missed it.
Perhaps the capital city is where she truly belongs.
The place where one's hometown is always something one misses dearly.
"Where are Zeyan and Qianyue? I haven't seen them." Yun Ziyu asked impatiently after finishing her meal.
He's been busy ever since we met yesterday, and he only got two hours of sleep last night.
Unexpectedly, the prince's return only brought even more busyness.
However, being busy now is for the purpose of returning to Beijing as soon as possible, which is a good thing, so Yun Ziyu works hard without complaint.
He finally had some free time today, so he rushed back to have dinner with Luo Luo and also to see his nephew and niece.
But the result left him somewhat disappointed.
Yun Qingluo knew that Yun Ziyu really wanted to see the two little ones, but she could only answer truthfully:
"The two little ones haven't closed their eyes since they woke up this morning. They've been chattering away non-stop and played all morning. They just fell asleep after eating a lot, and I think they'll be sleeping for a long time."
