Chapter 177 Grievances
This time, he took the pulse for a long time.
It lasted so long that Wen Li was about to lose his temper, and the court doctor finally let go.
"Congratulations to the Crown Prince, congratulations to the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is pregnant, but it's not very obvious because it's just now." Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken so long.
He used to be in charge of gynecology in the palace.
When the servants heard that their master was pregnant, they immediately expressed their congratulations.
Wen Li was also happy, "House Doctor, is the Crown Princess in good health? Why has she had a poor appetite these days?" Hearing that Xiaotong was pregnant again, he was so happy.
"This is normal for pregnant women. Perhaps the Crown Princess's pregnancy is more volatile this time." The court doctor said with a smile.
"You little bastard." Wen Li touched Xia Yutong's belly and said unhappily, "If you dare to make your mother uncomfortable, be careful or your father will spank you when you get out."
When Xia Yutong heard this, she slapped his hand away and said, "What are you talking about?" Really, he even threatened the child.
There's still a piece of meat in his stomach, what does he know.
"I feel sorry for you." Wen Li kissed her hand. "By the way, since you are not feeling well, let someone else handle the audition." He didn't want to tire his wife.
Xia Yutong was eager to do so, as she was not very willing to do so in the first place.
"Okay, whatever you say." She felt more comfortable staying at home.
The court physician did not prescribe any medicine for the Crown Princess, but just told her to rest more. He would come back in a few days to check her pulse.
When the people in the palace learned that the Crown Princess was pregnant again, they were all happier than the Crown Prince, the father.
There was no other way. After all, the Crown Prince was so generous. The reward was three months' salary. He had to report to the palace. Wen Li planned to tell the old man himself tomorrow.
I might as well talk to him about the draft.
Compared to Xia Yutong's tranquility, the grassland is not so peaceful.
More and more people are traveling to and from the grassland, and many of them are seizing the opportunity.
When Xia Zixuan and his team came here, they found that many tribes had cooperated with others.
A lot of things were also exchanged.
Fortunately, Shen Shiyou brought his wife over.
This is the first time they have returned to their parents' home since they got married.
With the support of Naren's family, they managed to keep 70% of the business. It must be said that the first mover advantage is very important.
"It seems that this business will not last long." Jiang Ce looked at the sky of the grassland, which was very beautiful.
Xia Zixuan didn't think so. "Don't be in a hurry. It's still unclear now. Only after all forces intervene, we can know who can stand firm." He didn't think so.
He has refined salt, paper, glass and other products in his hands, so he doesn't think they will lose much market.
On the contrary, those who joined later may find it difficult to make money.
The grassland is now in a state of disrepair, but what will happen over time?
Therefore, whoever walks longer will be the final winner.
This time we came back with a good load, but not as many gemstones and jade as last time. I guess many people bought them first.
But this time they harvested more meat.
In the Imperial City, Xia Yutong has been sleepy all day long since she became pregnant. She has to sleep for at least seventeen or eighteen hours in a twenty-four-hour day.
At first, Wen Li was almost scared out of his wits, but fortunately, after the court physician and the palace physician checked, they said there was no serious problem, otherwise he would have wanted to give up the child.
Xia Yutong started sleeping yesterday afternoon and continued to sleep until this morning. If Wen Li hadn't brought the meal into the room personally, she probably wouldn't have woken up.
Hearing the movement on the bed, Wen Li came over immediately. "Are you awake?" Seeing her open her eyes, he immediately stepped forward to help her up. "You must be hungry. Get up and eat something."
The smell of food had already aroused her appetite. "Hungry." She was indeed hungry.
"If you're hungry, get up and eat. I made your favorite seafood porridge today."
After Xia Yutong washed up, she began to eat voraciously. She was really hungry.
"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch the food from you." Wen Li said worriedly when he saw her like this.
Xia Yutong shook her head while eating. He didn't understand the feeling of being extremely hungry. After finally finishing a bowl of porridge, she slowed down.
"Have you eaten?" He's here so early in the morning. I guess he didn't go into the palace today.
Wen Li looked at it and nodded, "I've eaten it, you take your time."
Perhaps knowing that she was worried about the children, Wen Li continued, "Don't worry, children, they are under the watchful eye of Madam Huang."
These days, Xia Yutong was not feeling well, so he rarely let the children come over to bother her.
"That's good." Now, Xia Yutong was completely relieved.
After struggling to finish breakfast, she felt sleepy again. There was really no time left for her.
Touching her belly gently, Xia Yutong said unhappily to her belly, "You kid, I'm afraid you're the reincarnation of the god of sleep."
Wen Li had just had someone pack up when he heard her say this. His heart started to lift again: "What's wrong? Are you both sleepy?"
He frowned and said, "Xiaotong, let's not sleep yet. I just had breakfast and can't sleep well. Come, I'll help you walk in the yard."
Xia Yutong didn't want to go to bed right after eating, fearing that she would feel uncomfortable, so she agreed: "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Wen Li helped Xia Yutong out of the room and said, "There's not much wind today, let's go a little further." The Prince's Mansion has been expanded a little, and the garden is now more than twice as large as before.
"Okay." Xia Yutong was in a good mood and agreed.
Walking on the green path, she was indeed not as sleepy as before.
After walking and stopping, they came to a pavilion. Wen Li was afraid that she would be tired, so he said, "Let's go over and sit down."
"Okay." She can do anything.
As soon as she sat down and the servants placed the refreshments on the table, Xia Yutong's head began to nod.
Wen Li felt very distressed when he saw her like this.
"Xiaotong, if you are tired, let's go back and rest." He said reluctantly.
Xia Yutong couldn't answer him at this time because she was really sleepy.
She fell asleep in seconds.
Seeing that she ignored him, Wen Li squatted down and looked at her straight in the eye, with his eyes closed.
"Alas." He had no choice but to let her fall asleep.
Pick him up. He can't sleep here. He walked out by himself and now he is being carried back.
The audition was over on such a day, and Xia Yutong became more energetic.
"Today is the last day, right?" She asked Xia Xue after waking up from a nap.
"Yes, today is the last day of the selection." Because there was no high-ranking concubine in the palace, the eldest princess had to come forward to preside over it.
Since no one was allowed into the harem or the prince's palace, the selection was very simple and just a formality.
"Today is the day when their fate is decided. I hope they can all get the marriage they want." Xia Yutong has been a little sentimental recently.
"Master, don't worry about these things. The eldest princess is here, and it will definitely not be perfect. You just got up, are you hungry?" Xia Xue was more worried about her master, and other people had nothing to do with her.
"You." Xia Yutong was in better and better spirits. She took a nap every day at noon these past two days, and she felt much more energetic in the afternoon.
Unlike before, I slept all day.
"I'm really hungry."
Well, she reached another state, which was eating.
"Master, wait a minute. I'll have someone do it right away."
Xia Yutong was sleepy at first, and now she is hungry.
This child is really noisy.
After the hungry dishes were served, Xia Yutong no longer cared about anything else. She liked every dish.
The rice tasted sweet in her mouth. She finished three bowls of rice in one go, and Xia Xue and Xia Xiang were both frightened.
"Master, we are not hungry anymore, are we?" He had eaten half of the dishes on the table and three bowls of rice. What was the master doing?
Xia Yutong touched her stomach and said, "I'm still hungry. I'll have another bowl. Also, ask the cook to bring another portion of the roast pork."
Well, she didn’t know what was going on, but she was still not full.
Seeing this, the two were anxious in their hearts, but they still obediently served the food to their master.
As soon as she left the house, Xia Xiang started to worry: "I'll go get the palace doctor. Please serve the food slowly. The master has eaten too much."
In fact, Xia Yutong had a hard time during both of her pregnancies. When she was pregnant with twins, she lost all her internal strength.
After giving birth, she slowly recovered.
I have also improved a lot.
But the exhaustion she felt during pregnancy made her feel powerless and afraid.
Now, I feel sleepy from the beginning and I am not awake for long every day.
The sleepiness is finally over, and now I’m craving for food again. My stomach is like a bottomless pit.
Xia Xue and Xia Xiang arrived at the main courtyard at the same time.
The court doctor looked at the greasy braised pork and frowned: "The Crown Princess cannot eat too much greasy food."
Of course Xia Xue and the others knew it, but if their master wanted to eat, what could they say? It was not like they had not tried to persuade him before.
"House doctor, please go in and see the master first."
Xia Yutong was still waiting for the braised pork. There was half a bowl of rice in the bowl, but no meat. She was waiting.
"Master, the court physician is here to check your pulse." Xia Xiang entered the room first.
Xia Yutong was stunned. Why did she remember that the court doctor had taken Ping An's pulse just two days ago?
Forget it, she was so pregnant that she was confused.
"Come in."
She put down her bowl and chopsticks, looking reluctant.
The court doctor came in quickly and took a look at the table in front of the Crown Princess. His mouth twitched.
The Crown Princess eats too much.
Before, I only had three meals in two days, but now, I eat it all in one meal every three days.
The court doctor said nothing more and went forward to take the patient's pulse.
After taking her pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief: "The Crown Princess is fine." It was indeed true, the pulse was strong, but this time it was a single pulse.
"That's good, Xiang'er. Where are the dishes? Where is my braised pork?" Her mouth started to water at the thought of the braised pork.
"Master, I'm here." Xia Xue walked in from outside.
However, she did not let it go easily. Instead, she looked directly at the palace doctor and asked, "Physician, is it okay for the master to eat these meats?"
The court doctor twitched his lips again. The people around the Crown Princess were really...
He had to bite the bullet and go up. "It's better to eat less." He spoke the truth under the fierce gaze of the Crown Princess.
"But I'm hungry." She was really hungry.
"Try to eat less and have multiple meals a day." The court doctor gave up on himself and spoke out his true feelings.
Xia Yutong is not stupid, maybe she scared the two of them because of her ability to eat.
"Okay, but let me eat first." The food is here, so there is no reason not to eat.
The three of them were helpless and could only watch her eat.
Under the gaze of the three people, Xia Yutong finally did not eat up the entire plate of meat.
There were three pieces left, yes, three pieces.
"Okay, I'm full." In fact, she could still eat more, but in order not to scare them, she could only say that she was full.
At this time, she felt a little aggrieved and missed Wen Li very much.
After Xia Xue and the others cleaned up the table, Xia Yutong felt more and more aggrieved.
Golden beans actually started falling.
This time the two of them were terrified.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"But I don't feel well somewhere."
The two of them stepped forward nervously and immediately asked.
Hearing this, Xia Yutong couldn't hold back her tears any longer.
It felt as aggrieved as Chang'er who asked for candy but didn't get it.
Seeing that their master was silent and just crying, Xia Xue and Xia Xiang were afraid that he would get sick from crying, so they quickly sent someone to invite the prince back home.
Wen Li was discussing the whereabouts of these official daughters with the eldest princess in the palace when he heard a palace maid report that servants from the mansion had arrived.
He was worried about Xiaotong, and when he heard someone coming to the mansion, he immediately let them in.
"My Lord, please return home soon. The Crown Princess has been crying for some reason."
When the servant saw the prince, he immediately knelt on the ground and started crying.
He was scared.
Everyone in the palace knew that the Crown Prince loved the Crown Princess as if she were the apple of his eye. If anything really happened, ten or a hundred of their lives would not be enough to compensate.
The eldest princess also heard it and immediately stood up: "Quick, go back first, I'm here."
Wen Li couldn't sit still any longer and ran out.
In the palace, only he dared to be so presumptuous.
When Wen Li returned home, Xia Yutong's crying had finally subsided a little.
Because Gen'er and the others came to persuade us.
It was shameful for Xia Yutong to cry in front of her son no matter how wronged she felt.
"Mother, mother is fine. You, you guys go out and play." One of the handkerchiefs was wet, so he changed for a new one.
Gen'er and the others also began to understand that their mother was not in a good condition at all.
"Don't cry, mother. Chang'er will give you all the candies." He could only take out his most precious things to coax his mother.
Gen'er's usual calmness had long since collapsed in the face of his mother's crying.
"Geng'er also has a lot of food. I'll bring it to Mother soon."
When Wen Li came in, she saw her son wiping his mother's tears.
"What's wrong? Have you been wronged?" Wen Li was running with sweat all over his forehead.
As soon as he came in, he pulled his son away, sat next to her, and asked softly.
Seeing Wen Li coming back, the grievance that had been suppressed before burst out again.
"Woo woo, you're finally back." Xia Yutong threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.
Seeing this, everyone was frightened.
"I'm back, I'm back, don't be afraid, I'm here, I'm here." Wen Li's eyes were full of hostility as he glanced at the people serving below.
But he spoke the most gentle words in the world.
"I, I, I'm hungry." He cried and complained about his grievances.
Hearing this, Wen Li glared at Xia Xue and Xia Xiang, "What's going on?"
The two of them didn't understand that their master hadn't eaten yet.
The two of them immediately knelt down and began to talk about what had happened before.
After listening to it, Wen Li also felt relieved.
"You eat so much, doesn't your stomach feel bloated?" He touched her stomach with his hand.
A little hard, but about the same as when he left this morning.
"No, it won't increase in size. I'm hungry. They won't let me eat. Wow." After Xia Yutong finished speaking, she cried even more sadly.
