Chapter 165 Twins Again
In early May, rice has already been planted in the fields.
Shen Lingshu had lived in the Imperial Manor for a few days and had completely gotten used to it. It was more comfortable than living in the Orchid Courtyard and was no longer that square space.
Not to mention the beautiful royal gardens, but there are also the endless mountains and the fertile fields. The people in the imperial farm are all carefully selected, so she doesn't have to worry.
Chu Cong ordered people to build special swings by the lake, and Shen Lingshu asked someone to build a small amusement park suitable for children to play.
Sand made of cassia seeds, sand-digging tools made of wood, and a small slide that was polished smooth and painted in beautiful colors.
The two little guys have a lot of fun playing every day.
"vomit."
Shen Lingshu's happy days were over when she was about to turn three months old.
With my first child, I ate everything with relish, but with my second child, I didn’t start having morning sickness until I was almost three months pregnant.
Aunt Cui prepared a lot of food for her, but Shen Lingshu still vomited everything she ate. Others gained weight when they were pregnant, but she lost weight.
"Aunt Cui, I, I didn't have any reaction at all during my first pregnancy."
Shen Lingshu was vomiting so much that she began to doubt her life. In order to relieve her morning sickness, Chu Cong sent people to Kyoto to buy some delicious food.
"Every pregnancy is different, even the first and second pregnancies are different."
Madam Cui explained, "I'm going to make ginger and chili for you today. You can try it later. It's spicy and will whet your appetite."
"eat."
Shen Lingshu thought, as long as there was a one in ten thousand chance of not vomiting, she would give it a try.
Spicy ginger, paired with fresh crushed chili peppers, after Shen Lingshu ate it, she felt spicy but didn't vomit!
At noon, Shen Lingshu smelled braised pig's trotters, fried pumpkin flowers, and stir-fried beef...
No vomiting at all!
Shen Lingshu happily ate an extra bowl of rice.
Later that night, Chu Cong was very happy to know that she could eat again.
"Your Highness, how are the crops in the fields growing?" Shen Lingshu asked while lying on the couch, fanning herself with one hand.
Maybe it's because she's pregnant, this time she's particularly afraid of heat.
"Very good. I think it looks a lot thicker."
Chu Cong has been working in the fields every day these days. He knows the crops in the fields very well. He said, "There's good news over in Nancheng too. The early rice has already headed. We'll have to wait a few more days before we can finally harvest it!"
Chu Cong keeps a close eye on the affairs of Nancheng every day.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Shen Lingshu looked at Chu Cong, who had become darker and thinner. When she came to Huangzhuang, she felt like she was a family of four. There were no messy women around, only the four of them.
"Your Highness has worked so hard, and God sees it. He will surely ensure a good harvest."
Shen Lingshu fanned him, her sparkling eyes seemed to say: Your Majesty is awesome!
"Um."
Chu Cong nodded. After he came to the imperial farm, he was reluctant at first, but now he was willing. The turmoil in the court had nothing to do with him anymore.
Some people were eager to convict him, so the prince went to overturn his case, but in the end, his charges became even more serious.
The third brother, Prince Heng, was even more aggressive and wanted to trample him to death.
He is now farming in the imperial farm, which is actually much safer.
Especially the third brother, in order to bring down the prince, he fought fiercely with the prince in the court.
Oh, if the third brother didn’t have a mother who was a royal concubine and a grandfather who was a prime minister, with that businessman’s brain, he would have died eight hundred times already.
"Daddy, hug me."
Beibei's voice came, and the sweet and soft daughter rushed over. Chu Cong looked at Shen Lingshu who was smiling like a flower. The next moment, he understood why Shen Lingshu was smiling like this!
"Beibei, did you pee?"
Chu Cong looked at his wet clothes and lowered his head to look at his daughter.
"Daddy, pee."
Beibei pointed at his clothes with her big eyes, which were like black grapes, as if saying: She wants to pee.
“…”
Chu Cong looked at his daughter's eyes that were like black grapes and couldn't say anything to blame her.
"Your Majesty, Beibei didn't mean it."
Shen Lingshu hurriedly stepped forward with clothes and brought Beibei over.
"Daddy."
Beibei hugged Chu Cong tightly, and the look of love on her face made Chu Cong unable to bear to blame her.
"Be good, Daddy is going to change his clothes, and then Daddy will give you something delicious."
Shen Lingshu led Beibei over and changed her clothes while talking about delicious food. Zhuxin, who was standing next to her, came over with the rice ball she had just made. Beibei stared at the rice ball without blinking.
"Your Highness, please change your clothes quickly. I have someone make rice balls for them today."
Since there was no seaweed, she used meat floss, mixed it with rice, and kneaded it into various shapes. Mrs. Wu in the kitchen even used sesame seeds to make cute eyes and carrots as a mouth.
Not to mention Beibei, even Shen Lingshu couldn't help wanting to eat more when she looked at the small and cute rice ball.
"good."
Chu Cong stood up. He had spent more time with his daughter, and he knew very well that there were many situations like this. Shen Lingshu didn't know how many times she had been peed on. She always smiled and played with the twins and never got angry.
Chu Cong went into the inner room and changed into clean clothes. When he came out, he saw Shen Lingshu teasing the two children with rice balls. Under the warm yellow candlelight, her smile when playing with the children was particularly contagious.
Not in the backyard of the palace, with just their family of four, Chu Cong suddenly felt very at ease in the past half month.
Even when the two children had their birthdays, the feeling of the two of them making delicious food for them and dressing them in new clothes made him feel like they were a couple.
He is now a criminal, and Shen Lingshu took the initiative to say that she would not hold birthday parties for the two children, but just a simple family of theirs.
We are busy during the day and chat at night.
He...likes days like this.
Time passed quickly and it was June. Three months later, Shen Lingshu's belly began to grow noticeably bigger.
After checking Ping'an's pulse, Doctor Lin began to hesitate to speak.
"Doctor Lin, is there something wrong with my pregnancy?"
Shen Lingshu stared at him closely and asked.
"no."
Doctor Lin shook his head, hesitating to speak, "I think Concubine Shen might be having twins again."
“Puff~!”
Shen Lingshu was relieved when she heard this. She smiled and said, "Aunt Cui said the same thing."
"So, it's really twins?"
Doctor Lin looked at her belly. A pair of twins was already a rare occurrence, and this second baby was also twins?
"Doctor Lin, please don't tell anyone else yet."
Shen Lingshu reminded: "When the melon is ripe, everyone will know it naturally."
"good."
Doctor Lin did not hesitate and agreed immediately. After reporting to the prince that everything was fine, he began to talk about Concubine Fang's pregnancy.
Compared with the less troublesome Shen Lingshu, Concubine Fang is much more difficult to serve!
