Chapter 76 The Blessing of Not Having a Son
daughter?
Concubine Fang's eyes lit up a bit, and she stepped forward quickly: "Congratulations, Your Highness, on the birth of your daughter!"
Her voice was full of joy as she said, "That bitch Shen Lingshu was not blessed with a son."
"And, there's one more."
When the midwife's voice sounded, Concubine Fang paused. Was she too relieved too early?
"Reward, double your monthly salary."
There was joy in Chu Cong's voice. He finally had a child!
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on the birth of your daughter."
Qingwu and others immediately knelt down to congratulate.
Wow~
Another cry was heard and everyone looked towards the inner room.
Concubine Fang clenched her fists tightly, pursed her lips and said nothing, but in her mind, she was shouting madly: Daughter, it must be a daughter!
In the inner room, the midwife took the child out. When she saw that it was another daughter, she was stunned for a moment. Looking at the flower-like Concubine Shen, she thought to herself: What a pity, it's another daughter.
"Congratulations, Aunt Shen, for giving the prince a pair of twin sisters."
Nanny Liu cleaned the child, wrapped her in a blanket, and brought her out, saying with a smile, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Aunt Chen has given you another daughter. She is safe and healthy."
Nanny Liu emphasized the pronunciation of the four words "safe and healthy". Although they were two daughters, two safe and healthy children were also a great thing for Prince Lin, who had no heir.
"Okay, rewards, everyone will get rewards."
Chu Cong was very happy and was not unhappy because both were daughters. He looked at one and then the other and said in amazement, "These two children look exactly the same."
"Twins, of course, look exactly the same."
Aunt Hua smiled and said, "The elder sister has extra hair, and the younger sister cries loudly. The elder sister wears pink clothes, and the younger sister wears blue."
Even though the twin sisters had just been born, Aunt Hua was already starting to look for differences.
"Congratulations, Your Highness. Congratulations, Your Highness." Concubine Fang was really happy. Shen Lingshu was indeed unlucky. She had two children, both of whom were daughters!
Concubine Fang's face was filled with joy. She smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, maids. I have already ordered someone to prepare a sumptuous breakfast."
"The maids should also share in the joy."
Concubine Fang generously returned the reward money, which made Chu Cong feel relieved.
"Lingshu, thank you for your hard work."
Through the screen, Chu Cong could vaguely see the shadow of Shen Lingshu lying weakly on the bed. As soon as he moved his legs, Shen Lingshu said, "Don't come over, Your Majesty."
She was now dirty and smelled of sweat. She couldn't let her image be ruined. She glanced sideways and vaguely saw the inky figure. She said, "Your Majesty, I did it. I gave birth to two children safely."
As for the daughter?
Shen Lingshu didn't mind at all. Whether it was a son or a daughter, they were all children she had worked so hard to give birth to.
"Ling Shu, you are a great contributor."
Chu Cong said affirmatively, even through the screen, but his burning eyes still made Shen Lingshu feel it clearly.
He didn't mind that she was his daughter.
This realization made Shen Lingshu happier. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "It is my blessing to be able to give birth to a child for the prince."
There was also a hint of weakness in her happy voice.
Nanny Hua said, "Your Highness, Concubine Shen just gave birth and should rest well. Your Highness should go to court."
"good."
Chu Cong ordered: "Take good care of Aunt Shen, Concubine."
Chu Cong turned sideways, and Concubine Fang quickly saluted and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will take good care of Aunt Shen."
"No need. Aunt Shen just gave birth and needs to rest during her confinement period. Concubine Shen only needs to deliver the allowance to Youlan Courtyard on time."
Chu Cong gave the order, and Zhu Xin beside him was secretly happy. What the master needed most now was rest.
Concubine Fang paused for a moment, "Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry. I will not let anyone disturb Aunt Shen's confinement."
"Lingshu, have a good rest. I will come to see you and the children in the evening." Although he had not slept all night, Chu Cong was in good spirits. Before going to court, Chu Cong looked at the two children who were sleeping soundly.
Chu Cong changed into court robes and headed straight for the palace. His usually stern face was now filled with a smile. When the emperor came to court, he saw Chu Cong so happy and an idea struck him. He asked, "Second brother."
"Your Majesty, at dawn, Shen gave birth to a pair of daughters. I have become a father now." Chu Cong stepped forward, and his happy voice rang out in the court.
He is not extinct, he has a daughter.
"Well, Shen is indeed a blessed family." The emperor was very pleased. The second son's family line was no longer extinct, and he finally had a child.
Prince Chu Chen smiled and said, "Second brother, I can finally send this gift."
"Brother, come and have a drink then." Chu Cong was in a very good mood.
"Second brother, there is also my younger brother."
The Third Prince Chu Lian quickly said, "I've also prepared gifts for my two nieces."
"good."
Chu Cong raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Okay."
In Youlan Courtyard, Shen Lingshu slept until the afternoon and woke up because of her stomach growling. As soon as she opened her eyes, she subconsciously touched her stomach, and was shocked by its flatness.
"Master, are you awake?"
As soon as Zhu Xin entered the room, she hurriedly said, "Congratulations, Master, on giving birth to twin daughters."
"Where's the child?"
Shen Lingshu finally reacted. She gave birth to two daughters early this morning. She quickly asked, "Are they all okay?"
"Good. I just drank my wet nurse's milk and am sleeping soundly now."
Zhu Xin said hurriedly, "Master, are you hungry? Eat some noodles first. Madam Liu said that since you just gave birth, it's not suitable for you to take a lot of supplements. Eat some noodles first to recover."
"good."
Shen Lingshu doesn't care what the food is, as long as there is food.
When the noodles were served in front of her, she looked at the watery soup and asked, "Zhu Xin, were these noodles cooked and then scooped out?"
"Master, this is sugar noodles. Don't think it tastes bad. In fact, it is very sweet." Zhu Xin said as he picked up the noodles and blew them to cool down.
Shen Lingshu: "..."
After Shen Lingshu had eaten her fill of the sweet sugar-coated noodles, she wanted to see her two daughters that she had given birth to with great effort. Soon, Aunt Liu and Aunt Hua came over with the children in their arms.
“They really look exactly the same.”
Shen Lingshu exclaimed and asked, "Which one is the elder sister and which one is the younger sister?"
She didn't even dare touch the tiny ball in the cradle.
"The one in pink is the elder sister, and the one in blue is the younger sister." Aunt Hua said with a smile, "The elder sister is quiet and well-behaved, while the younger sister likes to cry."
After spending half a day together, Aunt Hua had already gotten to know the two sisters' personalities.
My sister is impatient. If I were a little slow, she would cry so hard that the roof would fall off.
Shen Lingshu carefully reached out her hand and gently poked her sister's face. She exclaimed, "They are so soft."
