Xiao Jiu was so busy that he didn't come back for three days.
Ning Meng was so carefree for three days.
She has been eating five Yunshuang fruits every day these days, and now she feels like she can kill a wolfdog.
I eat and drink well every day, and my spirits are in great shape.
The Lingxia fruit on the balcony has just produced small fruits, and Ning Meng is confident that it will be able to mature in a few days.
She is now familiar with several maids and Aunt Zhang. After planting the spiritual fruits, she chats with the maids in the garden about the gossip of the nobles when she has nothing to do.
The maid told her a lot of things she didn't know, and she listened with great interest while eating melon seeds.
It turned out that in order to successfully have her child, Nangong Yan had proposed to become the Crown Princess, but after learning that she had jumped into the lake, she changed her mind and refused.
In the end, the title of Crown Princess fell to Countess Jiang Xingyue.
Xiaoli also talked a lot about the development history of the royal family of Xuansheng Kingdom.
Ning Meng took a sip of her tea. "So, Miss Nangong's great-grandmother was actually the queen of Xuansheng Country? Compared to the previous generations, she was indeed quite miserable!"
With such a background, it's no wonder she is so confident.
But thinking about her great-grandmother's fiefdom, it is really miserable that it is now being occupied by other branches because she has no children.
This decree was made by the retired emperor during his lifetime, because at that time the royal alliance pacified the alien beasts and brought peace.
He had just taken over the throne from the queen who died in the war, and wanted to unify the country's resources. So he used the excuse that he was afraid that the monsters would make a comeback and the heirs must be strong, so he customized this inheritance law, and thus took back many fiefs of the nobles.
Unified the Xuansheng Kingdom.
But this law also caused great harm to the royal family itself.
Seeing how eager the Emperor was to abdicate, the Crown Prince was forced to reproduce, and even Nangong Yan kept a close eye on her child.
As Ning Meng was digesting the news, Xiaofang explained:
"She's not miserable at all. I heard she has so many male partners that she can't even count them on her hands. But she's very picky. She even disdains the bloodline of the current Crown Prince. She's always eyeing the powerful genes of our Lord Duke. That's why she hasn't been able to conceive for decades."
"And look at her bloodline. Although it also contains some royal blood, it's far from being so strong that she can't have children. Besides, doesn't our Duke already have children? As long as she doesn't look down on others for having weak bloodlines and tries hard, it should be easy for her to have a child."
Ning Meng suddenly understood what he said and realized that it made sense.
She said that other nobles had also given birth to several Holy Spirit babies in the past 30 years, such as Ji Yunruo and the new Crown Princess Jiang Xingyue. Why was it that only the Nangong family had not given birth to a child in all these decades?
Xiaofang: "But after being taught a lesson by our Lord Duke this time, I guess she won't be so persistent anymore."
Ning Meng nodded, thinking of the scene where Nangong Yan was electrocuted and fell to the ground, and felt that this was the case.
At this moment, the buzzing sound of a helicopter came from overhead.
"Madam, it's the Duke who has returned."
"His Excellency the Duke has finally finished his work. Madam no longer has to endure loneliness at night."
Ning Meng: ...
She didn't feel lonely.
As soon as Xiao Jiu came back, he looked at Ning Meng with tired eyes, "Can you make me some tea?"
Ning Meng nodded in agreement under the expectant gaze of the maids.
The two came to a spacious tea room, and Ning Meng made Xiao Jiu some spiritual tea produced by their company.
Xiao Jiu took a sip after smelling it and nodded slightly, "This is the taste, your tea is still the best."
Ning Meng saw that he was indeed in much better spirits after drinking it.
"Have you not had enough rest these days?"
"Yeah, but it's okay. We've finished everything for today. We can go back to Nanling City after dinner tomorrow morning."
In fact, Xiao Jiu did not rest well these days, but he was not as tired as he pretended to be now.
Why would she agree to make him tea so quickly if he didn't pretend to be tired?
Ning Meng thought for a moment and said, "If you're really tired, you can take another day to rest before returning to Nanling City. There's no need to rush."
She has adapted a lot here, so it's okay for her to stay for another day.
"It's okay. I just need to get some rest tonight. You look much better. The exotic snake gall I brought back for you is quite effective."
Xiao Jiu hadn't gone fishing for almost a week. His hands were itching, and he was thinking about going back to Longhu Villa as soon as possible.
"I'll throw up if I eat it. I've been eating Yunxia fruit these past few days. I'll ask Aunt Zhang to make some to nourish you later."
Xiao Jiu:?
After Ning Meng made tea for him, she asked Zhang Ma to make some exotic snake gallbladder for him to nourish his body.
Aunt Zhang nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely take care of it."
So, when Xiao Jiu was having dinner, a large bowl of snake gall soup was served in front of him.
"My Lord Duke, this is what Madam ordered to make for you to nourish your body. Please drink it slowly."
After saying this in a very tactful way, Aunt Zhang left with a smile.
Xiao Jiu: "It's quite a lot. How about I give you some?"
Ning Meng smiled and shook her head: "I will vomit if I drink it. These are all left for you. Don't waste them. Drink them all."
It will make you miserable if you treat it this way.
Xiao Jiu looked at Ning Meng and smiled slightly, "Okay! Since it was prepared by Madam, I will naturally finish it."
He picked up the bowl and took a big sip without frowning at all, which shocked Ning Meng who was standing beside him.
"Don't you... feel bitter and fishy?"
How come you feel nothing, just like drinking water?
"A little, but acceptable."
