Chapter 647 Gift Giving



Before Si Chuyu stepped into the main courtyard, he heard the soothing and pleasant sound of a piano.

Half a month ago, when the female teacher was teaching Lu Yao a new piano score, she inadvertently said that the sound of the piano can help soothe the emotions of pregnant women.

The next day, Lu Yao had someone carry the zither into Lu Yuan's room.

With the sound of the piano, the two noisy little ones in Lu Yuan's belly instantly became obedient.

One song is not enough, you have to play three different kinds of music to stop the two little guys from fighting.

Every day when Lu Yuan woke up from her nap, she was kicked awake by the two little ones, which told her that they and her brother were going to listen to the piano.

Lu Yao also came to play the piano for her brother and sister on time.

Lu Yuan had long passed her three-month safe period, and Si Mengshi would often remind Si Chuyu, "It's time to go back to the Si family to take care of the baby. It's already three months, and you should be honest."

Si Chuyu always had reasons to delay, and Si Mengshi kept compromising for the safe birth of her grandchildren.

Now Lu Yao comes to play the piano every day, and Si Mengshi never mentioned the matter of returning to the Si Mansion to take care of the pregnancy again.

The grandchildren love to listen to it, and Lu Yuan doesn’t suffer so much.

The key is that she also likes to listen to Lu Yao playing the piano.

When Si Chuyu came in, Lu Yao was playing the second piece of music on the piano.

After the three pieces of music ended, Simeng asked, "Why did you go out for so long?"

"The princess is pregnant!"

"What?!"

The three people in the room were all shocked.

Simengshi asked again: "When did this happen? How many months old is the child?"

"It was just diagnosed today. I ran into Su Xingyi outside buying these fruits and snacks. He wouldn't have told me if I hadn't asked."

Simeng quickly stood up and said, "Then I have to go back and pick out some nourishing products to send to the Princess's Mansion."

"Mom, don't worry. I'll send it over with the plum blossom viewing banquet tomorrow."

"It will be too late to send it tomorrow. My sister-in-law and the others must be preparing these to send to the Princess's Mansion right now. Our Silu and the other two families cannot fall behind."

"Mom is right. Yao'er, come and help me go to the warehouse to pick it out." Lu Yuan said as he was about to get out of bed.

"Don't worry, everyone. Not many people in the Princess's Mansion know about this, not even the children. But I went to the government office and asked Master Qi to notify the families who will be attending the banquet tomorrow, so that they can prepare in advance!"

"What? Don't you know everything? We will send it over today. We are different from other families. No more talking. I will go and pick it now."

"Mom, wait for me, our Silu and Silu families will send them over together."

"Okay, we must deliver it before the Meng family."

Afterwards, Simeng led the Lu sisters and servants to the warehouse to carefully select.

There was a big commotion in the main courtyard. When the third wife, Chen, heard about it, she not only opened the public warehouse, but also opened her own private warehouse.

Seeing this, Si Chuyu wanted to cry but had no tears. He felt sorry for Xingyi. He had wanted to hide it, but he couldn't...

When the Meng family got the news, Meng Wei took her eldest daughter-in-law with her to search the warehouse.

"Grandma, Mother, where are you going?"

Meng Zilu and Meng Yunqian just happened to come back from outside.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were in a hurry, so they just gave them a sidelong glance and hurriedly got in the carriage and left.

"Dad, my great-grandmother and the others must be in a hurry. Let's go find my second uncle first."

Meng Zihe was dressing in front of the mirror in his room. He had already changed several sets of clothes, but he was still unsure which one would be suitable for the plum blossom viewing banquet tomorrow.

"Second brother."

"Second uncle."

"You've arrived just in time. Please help me decide which outfit would be the best for the banquet tomorrow."

Meng Zilu swept the clothes on the bed, the table, and the hangers. It was obvious that his second brother had tried on every set of clothes.

"Second brother, you've always had a good sense of taste. You've never had a headache about dressing before. What's wrong with you today?"

Of course, he had to dress handsomely and elegantly to leave a good impression on Lu Yao.

He hadn't seen her for a long time.

I really want to know what she is doing these days?

But he would not tell this to Meng Zilu.

"Tomorrow we will be attending the plum blossom viewing banquet at the Princess's Mansion. You must wear appropriate clothing. You must not be impolite, nor lose face for our Meng Mansion."

"Every outfit in this room fits and looks good on you."

"Yes, Second Uncle, you are good-looking. You look good in anything you wear."

Meng Zihe's eyebrows curved unconsciously when he heard this. Would Lu Yao think he was handsome?

Meng Zihe turned around and looked at himself in the bronze mirror.

Meng Zilu raised his eyebrows when he saw this, leaned over and patted his shoulder, then looked at Meng Zihe in the bronze mirror and said:

"Brother Wen came back last time and said there would be riddles and couplets at the plum blossom viewing banquet. The princess might even give questions and have people compose poems on the spot. All the young men and women attending the banquet tomorrow can participate. You must shine!"

His brother's young and handsome face should be very popular with girls.

Meng Yunqian also squeezed over, "Third brother also said that the winner will receive the prize carefully prepared by the princess. Second uncle, you are now the champion of the Jieyuan exam. I think you can easily get the prize tomorrow, right?"

Meng Zihe smiled at the mirror and said, "I will try my best to perform!"

"Mom, Third Aunt, we're here."

When Simeng saw that there was no carriage from the Meng family at the door, she breathed a sigh of relief and pulled the third wife Chen out of the carriage together.

Lei Xiao saw Si Chuyu coming again and hurried forward, "Master Si, what are you doing?"

"Guard Lei, we are here to give a gift to the princess."

Give a gift?

Even if you want to give a gift, wouldn’t it be better to send it to me at tomorrow’s plum blossom viewing banquet?

Lei Xiao was only surprised for a moment, and without asking any further questions, he let them in.

"etc!"

The Meng family's carriage braked suddenly and stopped at the gate of the princess's mansion.

When Si Chuyu saw the Meng family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chasing after her, she was extremely surprised. Her mother was right.

Sister-in-law came really quickly!

"Oh, sister-in-law, niece-in-law, what a coincidence, you are here too." Simeng smiled and took Meng Wei's arm.

"The princess is pregnant. It's such a big deal. Naturally, we have to rush here as soon as we get the news. Fortunately, we arrived in time. Let's go in together."

"When was the princess diagnosed with pregnancy?"

"Chu Yu said it was today..."

Lei Xiao was shocked for a moment after hearing what they said, and then arranged for someone to go to the government office to transfer people and rearrange the security deployment for tomorrow's plum blossom viewing banquet.

From this moment on, he has to be extremely alert!

"Princess, someone from the Silu, Meng, and San families has arrived."

Mo Shu looked at Xiao Lingyu nervously.

She didn't tell anyone about the princess's pregnancy, and Miss Xu couldn't tell anyone either. Who leaked it?

Xiao Lingyu was surprised, "Why are they here together? Do you know what's going on?"

"They...know that you, Princess, are pregnant..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lingyu glanced at Su Xingyi. "Did you spread the word?"

"...I met Si Chuyu outside. He asked me if I had encountered any good things, so I told him and asked him to keep it a secret, but he told it anyway."

"Sister, this is good news, I can't hide it, you guys go quickly."
