Chapter 87: Prince, the Third Miss is pregnant
Baizhi and Strawberry were extremely shocked at first, and couldn't believe it. Now they calmed down and listened quietly to the conversation between the lady and Cherry.
Compared to them, Cherry accepted this matter faster.
After a long pause, Bai Zhi asked, "Miss, will we live here forever? There are two imperial doctors sent by the Emperor. They come to treat you and take your pulse every now and then. We can't hide this... And Gui Momo is still watching us from the dark. If she finds out and secretly reports it to the Prime Minister's residence, I'm afraid..."
"Yes, I have taken all of your words into consideration! Next, I will tell you that I have asked Ye Er to lead people to build a house in the bamboo forest on the mountain.
I'll move in after it's built. Baizhi, are you willing to continue pretending to be me and living here?"
"Ah? Miss, you mean to live alone in the bamboo forest halfway up the mountain? That's not possible. What if you encounter danger? After all, there are wild animals in the jungle on the mountain... And you're pregnant, this is absolutely not allowed."
"This is the only way right now! Don't worry, once the bamboo house is built, I will transfer all the Night Guards over here. This way it will be much safer!"
Cherry: "Miss, from what I've heard, you don't mean to live alone in the bamboo house halfway up the mountain, right? I don't agree, at least take me with you."
Strawberry quickly said, "And me! Miss, if you don't take me with you, who will cook for you every day?"
Seeing the worried faces of the few people, who were so concerned and caring for her, Yunli felt warm in her heart, as if it was filled up.
"Think about it, I let Bai Zhi stay here pretending to be me, and you two are my girls. I'm here, and you two aren't. How can this be? It's easy to arouse suspicion, okay? Use your brain to think about it."
Bai Zhi nodded and said, "Miss, you are right, but we are worried about you going to the middle of the mountain alone."
"Didn't I tell you to have the Night Guards come over? You're just down the mountain, not far away. If you have anything to say, have the Night Guards pass on a message to me."
Strawberry: "My lady, I can cook for you every day, prepare it in advance and put it in the lunch box, and then let Ye Er deliver it. Miss, you must agree, otherwise I really won't be at ease."
Baizhi and Yingtao also nodded.
"Yeah, that's fine! By the way, I'm worried about the three of you being here, especially Bai Zhi pretending to be me. There might be danger later, so when the Night Guards arrive, I will send six people to guard the mountain.
And Bai Zhi, if you don't want to, I won't force you. After all, pretending to be me is really risky..."
"Miss, what are you talking about? My life belongs to you. Ever since you brought me out of the brothel, I have secretly vowed that I will be yours for the rest of my life. What's more, you are so kind to me.
Sometimes I feel it's unreal, I feel like we are sisters, so no matter what the lady says, if she needs me, I will do my best! If I can help her avoid some unexpected disasters right now, I will be very happy. I can finally do something for her!
Cherry and Strawberry nodded repeatedly, "Me too! We're not afraid either!"
Yun Li's eyes welled up with tears after hearing these words, and her heart ached! It was wonderful to have such a few loyal and warm girls around her. In this place where she had no relatives, they were like her family. They could rely on each other and entrust their offspring to each other.
"Okay, thank you!"
Yunli opened her arms and embraced the three girls
"Miss, you must take good care of yourself. If you want to eat something, just let Ye Er tell me and I will make it for you!"
"Yeah, I understand!"
Yun Li took out some banknotes from his sleeve and gave them to the three people, each of them got some.
"Take these banknotes. You'll need them for your daily necessities!"
Cherry reminded: "Miss, I still have a lot of banknotes here."
"Yeah, I know. If you have a lot of money, just keep it. You'll need it sooner or later anyway!"
"By the way, Miss, do you want to find a midwife in advance? It's better to find a midwife in advance so that you can observe her for a period of time. If she is not mentally sound, you can't use her to prevent potential problems."
Yun Li raised her eyebrows. She said Bai Zhi was very thoughtful. "Well, when the time comes... forget it. None of you three can show up for this matter. I'll find it myself."
"Then please be careful, Miss."
"Um"
Yingtao sighed, "Ah... If only Zhao Momo were here, she could at least help the young lady. Unlike now, we are stuck here and can't do anything..."
"Zhao Momo will wake up soon. Don't worry, you will be able to see her soon!"
"Really?"
"Of course! I'll tell you when I wake up!"
…
A few days later, the bamboo forest halfway up the mountain was finally built. Yunli left the manor of Wei Mansion at the foot of the mountain as promised and moved to the mountain.
The bamboo house is very simple, with two rooms on the left and right, and a hall in the middle, which is filled with a few simple pieces of furniture.
She sprinkled mosquito repellent powder around the house, as well as special poison to repel venomous snakes and beasts.
The hut, which looked like it was vulnerable to wind and rain, was actually indestructible. These days, she pulled out some weeds outside the bamboo house during the day. This job was not tiring, as she had to move around and not lie down all the time.
I also sprinkled some seeds of Gesang flowers and various small wild flowers, and watered them with spiritual spring water. I think they will bloom soon.
I chose two thick bamboos on one side of the door and tied a hammock on them. When I have nothing to do, I can hang it on the bed and read a book, close my eyes and take a nap, breathing the fresh air of nature.
Alas, she never expected that the retirement life she had always dreamed of would be experienced after she died...
Her belly was growing very fast day by day. Even when she was wearing loose clothes, she could still see the bulge in her belly. The weather was getting hotter and hotter. Fortunately, she was in the forest, so it was cool in the morning and evening. She lived a comfortable life. She moved Zhao Momo out of the space and placed her in another room of the bamboo house.
…
That night, I hurried back to the Prince's Palace.
"Your Highness, this is bad! Something happened!"
In the study, Helian Chi was looking at a military book. Without even raising his head, he asked in a cold voice: "What happened? Why are you yelling like that?"
An Ye realized that he had lost his composure and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the Third Miss's belly is getting bigger! She seems to be pregnant!"
"Clang!" The military manual in Helian Chi's hand fell to the ground. He looked at An Ye with shocked eyes: "What did you just say? Tell me in detail!"
"I discovered that the Third Miss is pregnant! A few days ago, I secretly discovered that the Third Miss disguised herself as a woman in her thirties or forties and returned to the capital. She went to Xiangyun Tower. After that, I followed the guards around her and found that the guards brought some workers back from the capital.
It seemed that a bamboo house was being built in the bamboo forest halfway up the mountain in Qingya Village. My subordinates felt suspicious at the time, but they still observed it patiently in secret. Until a few days ago, when the bamboo house was completed, the third lady actually moved into the bamboo house alone.
I was afraid that I had seen it wrong, so I went back to the manor of Wei Mansion and found that the third lady and her two maids were there, but one maid was missing. It was Bai Zhi who was beside her.
I wonder, since the third lady is at the foot of the mountain, who is the third lady on the mountain?
These days, I have been traveling back and forth between the mountain and the foot of the mountain every day, connecting the dots. I am certain that the Third Young Lady at the foot of the mountain is Bai Zhi, her maid, in disguise, and the one on the mountain is the Third Young Lady herself!
The reason the Third Miss moved to the mountains was because she was pregnant! And I guess she might have been pregnant for several months...
So the Third Miss came to Qingya Village with a plan... As an unmarried woman, she would not dare to return to the capital if she got pregnant, so she hid in Qingya Village."
