Chen Ahfu knew that she could not go to the kitchen to cook her favorite food until she was at least three months pregnant. She was a foodie, and now she was even more picky. She did not like the food made by the cooks in Tangyuan. So she asked Hua Mama and two other kitchen maids to go to Fuyuan Kitchen to cook her three meals a day. She only said that the water quality there seemed to be better, and the food cooked there was delicious.
The old man felt the same way. He also liked the food made by Fuyuan. He nodded and said, "That's right."
In the evening, Chu Lingxuan rushed back on horseback.
Chen Afu and others were leading Li Xuan, Chu Hanyan and other children from Fuyuan to Tangyuan when they saw Chu Lingxuan walking towards them from the gate of Tangyuan.
Chu Hanyan saw her father and ran towards him, shouting, "Daddy, Daddy, I'm going to have a brother or sister! My brother said that mommy will be like Sasa and give birth to two children at once."
That’s how rumors spread!
Nanny Li and others laughed again, and Chu Lingxuan was even happier after hearing that.
He took Chu Hanyan and walked to Chen Afu, smiling brightly, and said, "Why don't you rest in your room instead of running around?"
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "It's boring to stay in the room every day. I feel much better when I come out and walk around and play with the children."
Chu Lingxuan nodded and stretched out his arm to help Chen Afu, but felt it was not a good idea to do so in broad daylight, so he had to retract his hand, touch the back of his head, and look at Chen Afu and laugh.
He looked so excited and at a loss, like a confused boy who was a father for the first time.
His joy was indeed the joy of being a father for the first time.
Although Chu Lingxuan loves Chu Hanyan very much now, when he first learned that Ma was pregnant, he was not only unhappy, but also felt aggrieved and even disgusted. He hated everyone in the Ma family, including the woman who was forced upon him by Ma Shufei and Rong Zhao. If it weren't for the woman from the palace who came to collect the Yuanpa the next day, he would not have touched Ma at all.
Later, he learned that Ma was ignored and even often scolded by Rong Zhao because she was unwilling to listen to him. She was caught between her husband's family who did not approve of her and her own family who made her go against her husband's family. She was depressed and weak, and eventually died while giving birth.
Chu Lingxuan once had a trace of pity in his heart, but it was only a trace of pity. If he started over again, he and the Chu family would still not like her, and they would still stand on the opposite side. She was originally a pawn used by Rong Zhao and Ma Shufei to disgust him and his family...
The child in Chen Afu's belly is what he has been looking forward to for a long time.
Chen Afu saw that he was wearing military uniform, and his hair and clothes were soaked with sweat. He also heard that he came directly from the training ground, and felt very distressed. He raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief and said, "It's still a little cold now, go back and take a shower and change clothes, don't catch a cold."
Chu Lingxuan raised his hand and held her hand holding the handkerchief, not willing to let go, and led her towards Tangyuan.
Chen Ahfu felt that it was normal and happy that she was pregnant with his child and was spoiled and loved by him. However, Hong Fei and the other girls blushed and followed behind with their heads down.
Nanny Li was beaming with joy. Since the master doted on the grandmother so much, maybe he wouldn't want a maidservant? It was rare to find such a good man in a noble family.
On the way, Chu Lingxuan said regretfully, "I rushed back as soon as I heard the news that you were pregnant, and forgot to bring you food. I heard from one of my subordinates that when his wife had morning sickness, she loved to eat hot and sour rice noodles from a shop in Baiyang Hutong. They said this kind of rice noodles is a southern delicacy, with minced meat, soybeans, crushed peanuts, sunflower seeds, celery, and shredded kohlrabi in it. It's spicy and sour, and very refreshing and appetizing."
Chen Afu was so horny after hearing this that he felt like a worm was trying to get out of his throat. The sound of him swallowing saliva was so loud that people nearby could hear it.
She wanted to eat it so badly. She pouted and said, "You didn't buy it yet, why are you talking about it so carefully? Are you trying to make me jealous?"
Chu Lingxuan also heard the sound of Chen Afu swallowing his saliva, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I will ask Chu Huai to go back to the city to buy it. When he returns, the soldiers guarding the city will open the city gate for him, and I will buy it for you as soon as the store opens tomorrow."
Chen Ahfu was so greedy that he just wanted to eat the delicious spicy rice noodles, and he didn't care whether Chu Huai was tired or not, so he nodded. Chu Lingxuan sent someone to inform Chu Huai to go back to the city immediately and go to Baiyang Hutong to buy the spicy rice noodles that General Liu mentioned.
While Chu Lingxuan was bathing, Dabao came home from school and went straight to Yanxiang Pavilion. He greeted Chu Hanyan and Xiaoxuanxuan who were playing in the yard, and then went into the upper room.
He came to Chen Ahfu and said, "Sister said Daddy is back?"
Chen Afu nodded.
He then said seriously, "Mom, you are pregnant with a brother or sister, you can't let Dad sleep in the same bed with you."
Chen Ahfu was a little angry and said, "You are just a little kid, why are you so worried?"
Dabao said, "Madame Li said that mother is delicate now and cannot be touched or bumped into. What if daddy moves around in his sleep and bumps into you? Mother said that I punch and kick in my sleep, and I'm afraid that daddy will also punch and kick and hurt my brothers and sisters."
So that's how it is. This child is too worrying.
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "Your father is an adult, he won't move around when he's asleep."
Dabao was anxious and said, "Mom always says, 'It's better to be safe than sorry.' What if something goes wrong? We don't have as few houses as the other people in the village, so why do we have to live in such a crowded place?"
Seeing his face flushed with anxiety, Chen Ahfu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She felt that this naughty kid must have deliberately made things difficult for Chu Lingxuan, and yet he spoke with such confidence.
Xia Yue was familiar with Chen Afu and Dabao, so she didn't have any reservations and just giggled.
Chu Lingxuan just walked out, and he twitched his lips. If this young master was not the eleventh prince, he would really slap his little butt hard. He ran back from far away, didn't he just want to sleep next to his hot wife?
He also said to Dabao seriously, "Is school over? Daddy will test your homework tonight to see if you have made any progress in the past few days."
After that, he gave him his sixth birthday present. On March 2, Chu Lingxuan was busy and didn't come back to celebrate his birthday.
Dabao took the gift and pouted again. It seemed like he had the final say on whether it was beneficial or not?
After dinner, Chu Lingxuan took Dabao back to Jingyuan to test his homework. Chen Afu went to the east wing to coax Li Xuan to sleep, and then he felt a little sleepy, so he washed up and went to bed to rest.
I felt some movement around me in a daze, and when I opened my eyes, it was Chu Lingxuan who came back.
He sat on the bed and said, "You move inside, I'll sleep outside."
Chen Ahfu moved a little further in, and then thought of what Li Ma said, so he turned sideways and said, "Lingxuan, I can't serve you for a while, do you have any maid you like?"
