Caiping is very worried that a pregnant woman's mood swings may affect the fetus. Shen Wei is currently less than two months pregnant, which is the most unstable time.
What if Shen Wei is too sad and suffers a miscarriage? What should we do?
Cai Ping was very anxious, but Chen Wei was not anxious at all.
"No problem." Shen Wei was happy and at ease.
Now that Prince Yan didn't come to her place, Shen Wei felt much more relaxed. She no longer had to suffer from her mouth, hands and feet, and could fall asleep early at night.
When Prince Yan came to her place, she had to spend her time serving him, observing his words and expressions and playing the role of a sweet talker, and in the end she was so tired that her hands and feet ached.
Energetic men are the most difficult to please.
Chen Wei does not need King Yan's exclusive favor, nor does she need King Yan's wholehearted love. In ancient times when people had three wives and four concubines, seeking love was simply asking for trouble. It was not as real as real money.
As long as King Yan has a place for her in his heart and can provide her with stable wealth and resources, she will be satisfied.
Chen Wei licked the corner of her mouth, thinking of a delicacy she had been craving for a long time, and told Cai Ping: "Ask the kitchen to make a bowl of wine-fermented osmanthus ice cream tonight, and add more crushed ice."
It's going to be very hot tonight and there should be heavy rain. Since the King of Yan didn't come to her place, she could secretly eat a bowl of cool ice yogurt to satisfy her craving.
Cai Ping saw that Chen Wei didn't care much, so she could only nod helplessly: "I will go and tell the small kitchen right away."
...
Fangfei Garden.
Xiang'er's hands and feet were shaking with nervousness as she watched Prince Yan walking in the small courtyard.
Ever since Xiang'er came to Prince Yan's Mansion, she was often bullied by the servants, and her daily food was not enough to fill her stomach. In the palace, concubines who are not favored have a status even lower than that of servants.
Her parents favored boys over girls and sold her to a restaurant for money. She was miserable because of the bullying by the servants in the palace. Xiang'er couldn't bear the desperate and miserable days any more, so she jumped into the water last night, hoping to end her sad life. Just then, Nanny Liu, who was by the princess's side, passed by the pond and asked someone to fish Xiang'er out.
Nanny Liu sighed and told Xiang'er: "Since you dare to die, why don't you give it a try? 】
[You are born with a good appearance. If you find a way to meet the prince, you may get his favor. 】
[If you have a child, you will have the capital to stay in the palace. 】
Maybe it was Aunt Liu's words that worked.
The next day, Xiang'er cheered up, dressed up, and waited for King Yan in the garden. When dusk fell, the King of Yan passed through the garden with his guards after leaving the court. Xiang'er's heart was beating like a drum, and she went to pay her respects to King Yan with trembling body.
This was the first time she met King Yan up close.
Prince Yan was handsome and heroic, tall and mighty, with sharp eyes and brows, which reminded Xiang'er of the majestic door gods on the gates of temples in the countryside.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Xiang'er's voice was trembling.
The King of Yan did not pause.
Seeing that Prince Yan was about to leave her sight, Xiang'er became extremely anxious. She racked her brains and recalled the flirtatious widow of her country neighbor. Every time the widow wanted to seduce a man, she would stand at the door, waving a bright red peony handkerchief, and ask the men passing by if they were thirsty.
If the man said "thirst", the widow would smile and lead him into the house.
Xiang'er imitated the widow's demeanor and tone, and said timidly: "Your Majesty, I...I have made tea in Fangfei Garden. Would Your Majesty like to have a cup to quench your thirst?"
I don’t know which word touched the King of Yan, but he stopped.
The course of events that followed was like an illusory dream. She actually invited King Yan to Fangfei Garden where she lived!
Xiang'er stood under the eaves of Fangfei Garden and watched Prince Yan stop beside the abandoned vegetable garden. Xiang'er was very puzzled. The prince came to her yard for the first time, but he didn't go into the house and just walked in the yard?
Why is he staring at the abandoned vegetable garden?
But Xiang'er didn't have the courage to ask, and her hands were tangled together nervously.
"Your Highness, it's time for dinner." Finally, the rich butler gently reminded, "Should we ask the kitchen to deliver dinner to Fangfei Garden?"
King Yan nodded: "Yes."
Xiang'er breathed a sigh of relief.
As night falls, bright candles are lit in the main house of Fangfei Garden. Plates of exquisite and delicious food were placed on the table, and Xiang'er swallowed her saliva secretly as she watched.
She came from a poor family and had never seen such sumptuous food! Prince Yan did not move his chopsticks, so Xiang'er naturally did not dare to move either.
Prince Yan glanced around the room. Although the room was lit by candles, the interior and exterior of the room were decorated very roughly.
King Yan remembered that when Shen Wei lived in Fangfei Garden, the windows were bright and clean, and the interior furnishings were exquisite. There are no weeds in the yard, the vegetable seedlings in the vegetable garden are neatly planted, and the whole Fangfei Garden is full of vitality.
After he left court today, he had planned to continue to see Shen Wei. Unexpectedly, when passing by the garden, he heard someone mention "Fangfei Garden", which brought back the memories of King Yan.
He came to Fangfei Garden and revisited the old place.
But in just a few months, Fangfei Garden no longer has the brightness it once had. The food on the dinner table was not very appetizing. If Shen Wei was here, she would definitely prepare the most suitable food for him.
Unknowingly, Chen Wei had already spoiled Prince Yan's taste.
“Pah.”
Prince Yan put down his chopsticks with a lack of interest, stood up and said, "Let's go to Liuli Pavilion."
Fugui bowed his head respectfully and said, "I will lead the way right away."
Fugui sighed inwardly, the prince's mind was indeed still on Master Shen. Beautiful appearances are all alike, but an interesting soul like Master Shen is rare to find.
Xiang'er was at a loss as to what to do and had to put down her chopsticks to see Prince Yan off.
She stood at the gate of Fangfei Garden, looking at the tall figure of the man leaving, and Xiang'er couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
She returned to the house in a daze and looked at the table full of delicious food. She couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and taste it in big mouthfuls.
