Chapter 267 Noble
After the late spring cold, the weather is getting warmer.
Everything in spring is full of vitality. The light golden sunlight shines down warmly, the flowers, plants and trees seem to be glowing, and even the wind seems to be green and golden.
This season is the most lovely.
Jiang Shu walked slowly, looking at the beautiful spring scenery everywhere in the backyard, and his mood became much better.
"Princess, the peony is blooming." Tan Yu exclaimed in surprise.
When I saw it the day before yesterday, it was still a bud, and I don't know when it quietly opened.
Chu Yu helped Jiang Shu walk over and saw the peonies in the flowerbed blooming wantonly, competing for beauty.
"So beautiful." Jiang Shu leaned down slightly, raised his hand and gently stroked the elegant and noble flowers.
Only the peony is the true national color, and the capital is moved when the flowers bloom.
The king of flowers is worthy of its title. When the peony blooms, the other flowers immediately pale in comparison.
Perhaps it is because of the abundant rainfall this year, the flowers, plants and trees are growing exceptionally luxuriantly. Even this peony is blooming bigger and more gorgeous than in previous years.
Jiang Shu was delighted to see it, and asked Tan Yu to get the painting tools, and the servants to bring the drawing table, and sat in front of the flowerbed to paint with great interest.
As Jiang Shu moved his pen, the gorgeous flowers and the beautiful green leaves appeared on the drawing paper little by little.
After painting one flower, Jiang Shu took a look, and felt that it was a bit monotonous and lonely, so he painted another one.
When Yu Zheng finished his official business and found the back garden, he saw the person concentrating on painting at a glance.
She sat on a chair, her belly bulging, the sun shrouded her body, reflecting her small face as white as jade, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, bright and gentle.
"Prince." Yu Zheng approached, Chu Yu and Tan Yu bowed to greet him, and Leng Xing also bowed and called him master.
Jiang Shu looked up and saw Yu Zheng's almond eyes suddenly lit up: "Husband."
Yu Zheng stood beside her and lowered his eyes to look at the painting on the drawing table.
He looked carefully and didn't say anything for a long time.
Jiang Shu was embarrassed by the silent atmosphere. Thinking of Yu Zheng's superb painting skills, and then looking at her own painting, her face blushed.
Although her painting was not bad, it was still much worse than Yu Zheng's.
As if noticing her abnormality, Yu Zheng retracted his gaze and said, "The painting is very good."
"Really?" Jiang Shu was not sure whether he really thought she painted well or was just coaxing her.
She glanced at her own painting, then raised her eyes to look at the flowerbed in front of her.
Two colorful butterflies fluttered in, flew around the flowers, and landed on a red peony.
The quietly blooming peony instantly became more lively.
Jiang Shu's eyes flickered, and she reached out to hold the pen.
She observed the shape of the butterfly, and hesitated for several times, not knowing where to start.
At this time, a bony hand covered her hand, held her hand, and decisively started to write.
But within a cup of tea, the two butterflies jumped onto the paper.
With these two butterflies, the originally quiet painting became a little more lively and immediately looked much better.
"My husband is so amazing." Jiang Shu exclaimed softly.
Although she held the pen with Yu Zheng, she did not move at all. It was Yu Zheng who led her to wander on the paper.
So this butterfly was painted by Yu Zheng.
Hearing her praise, Yu Zheng bent his lips, held her hand and asked: "Do you still want to paint?"
Jiang Shu shook her head: "No."
Now that she was pregnant, she felt uncomfortable after sitting for a long time and wanted to get up and walk around.
It happened to be lunch time, so it was just right to walk back to the main courtyard to have lunch.
The two walked hand in hand in front, while Chu Yu and Tan Yu packed up the scrolls and followed behind.
"The prince and princess are a perfect match." Tan Yu looked at their backs with envy.
Zhuiyun, who was standing aside, heard it and turned to look at Tan Yu.
In fact, they are not young anymore. It
's just that they have been busy recently and it is not suitable to talk about marriage. When he is free after finishing his work, he will submit a request to his master...
Zhuiyun looked at Tan Yu's smiling face and calculated silently in his heart.
The next day was the first day of April.
After Yu Zheng left the court, he went to the palace gate to pick up Jiang Shu, and went to Zhongling Palace to pay respects together.
Shen Changze, who was about to get on the carriage, looked at Jiang Shu's figure from afar, his eyes fell on her bulging belly, and his heart was stagnant.
She was going to be a mother.
Although he had already accepted the fact that Jiang Shu did not belong to him, he still felt heartbroken when he suddenly saw Jiang Shu.
If, if...
No, there is no if. Shen Changze had difficulty retracting his gaze and got into the car with heavy steps.
The wheels rolled and drove away from the palace gate. The breeze lifted the curtains, and Shen Changze saw a pair of beautiful people walking into the palace together.
In the past, he looked down on Jiang Shu's background. But now, he doesn't even have the qualifications to look at her directly.
A woman obeys her husband after marriage. It turns out that whether a woman is noble or not depends on the man next to her.
A man who is strong enough does not care about his family background. No matter who the woman standing next to him is, she is equally noble.
It was never that Jiang Shu was marrying above his station, but that he was not strong enough.
Unfortunately, he understood it too late.
Shen Changze leaned against the wall of the car and closed his eyes to hide his surging emotions.
Jiang Shu, who was concentrating on talking to Yu Zheng, did not notice Shen Changze's line of sight, but Yu Zheng caught a glimpse of it.
When he was about to warn him, Shen Changze retracted his interest.
After entering the palace gate, the two got on the prepared sedan chair and went to Zhongling Palace.
Seeing Jiang Shu, Concubine Yu was overjoyed. She kept her eyes on Jiang Shu's lower abdomen and asked about his life.
"Mother." Yu Lan and Zhuang Yan came.
"You are here, sit down quickly." Concubine Yu invited the two to sit down.
Having not seen each other for a while, Yu Lan looked at Jiang Shu's belly and said with a smile: "It's so big now, the little guy is growing up so fast."
"The little brother is moving." Zhuang Yan also stared at Jiang Shu's belly, unable to take his eyes off.
Concubine Yu Gui found it funny: "How did you know it must be a younger brother?"
"It is a younger brother." Zhuang Yan insisted.
He couldn't tell why, but he just felt that his aunt was pregnant with a younger brother.
The old lady in the palace, Gui Ma, said: "Children have accurate intuition. Maybe the princess is really pregnant with a little prince."
Concubine Yu Gui smiled: "It's all the same. It will happen sooner or later."
Calculating the time, Concubine Yu Gui said: "It's almost six months. It will be born in two or three months. Have you invited a mother-in-law and a wet nurse?"
Jiang Shu shook his head: "Not yet."
Concubine Yu Gui frowned and said: "This is urgent. Prepare as soon as possible and choose carefully. Don't be careless."
Women's childbirth is a life-and-death situation. Concubine Yu Gui has a deep understanding of this.
"Okay, I will ask someone to start looking for it when I go back." Jiang Shu agreed obediently.
Concubine Yu Gui thought about it and said worriedly: "Madame Gui is the midwife of Lan'er and Zheng'er. She raised them and is very experienced. Let her go to the palace to serve."
"Yes." Madame Gui beside her immediately responded.
Jiang Shu was slightly surprised and said: "But Madame has been serving mother closely. If she goes to the palace, mother..."
"Don't worry, I have many people around me to serve you. You and the child are the most important right now." Concubine Yu Gui patted Jiang Shu's hand with a loving face.
This is Yu Zheng's first child. Let alone a madame, she wanted to go to the palace to watch over him in person.
"Mother is so good to Jiang Shu." Yu Lan deliberately sighed.
Concubine Yu Gui glared at her and said, "Why? Are you jealous? Then when you get married and have a baby, I will also let Nanny Gui serve you."
"I'm not married yet." In front of Zhuang Yan, Yu Lan blushed in embarrassment.
