Chapter 198 Full Moon Banquet
After a month of careful recuperation (involution), Dongfang Yuning is in shockingly good condition.
With the nourishment of the spiritual spring, the conditioning of the medicinal food, the top-level repair plan provided by the system, and her own good foundation, she is now like a thoroughly ripe peach.
She has shed the last trace of her youthfulness, and her whole body exudes a full, tempting and mature charm.
Her skin is as smooth as jade, and seems to be glowing with a soft light in the sun. It is more delicate and smoother than before pregnancy. The effect of the Snow Skin Cream is amazing. Not to mention stretch marks, even the pores are almost invisible.
Her figure recovered very quickly, her waist became slender and graceful again, but because of the breastfeeding period (although she was not breastfeeding), her curves became more curvy and delicate.
The most terrible thing is her eyes. They are still as clear and bright as before, but because of the childbirth, there is a hint of woman's lazy and gentle charm in the depths of her eyes.
Innocence and charm, two completely different temperaments are perfectly integrated in her, forming a fatal attraction.
She didn't even need to do anything deliberately. She just leaned lazily on the couch, ate fruit, and watched the wet nurse teasing the two children. The picture was so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.
Nangong Ye almost counted the hours to get through this month.
Every day he watched his darling wife wandering before his eyes, becoming more and more charming and attractive, with every frown and smile alluring. But he could only look but not touch. The torment was like torture.
What made him even more jealous was that after Dongfang Yuning finished her confinement, most of her attention seemed to be focused on the two little ones.
"Husband, look! The baby is smiling at me!"
"Oh, he grabbed my finger! So strong!"
"My dear, mommy is here~"
When she held the child, the tenderness and joy that emanated from her whole body and soul made Nangong Ye feel warm, yet also jealous.
His Ning'er's attention has been diverted too much!
Thus, the daily scene in Prince Yong's Mansion became: the princess revolved around the children, and the prince revolved around the princess, with resentful eyes like a neglected big dog.
Occasionally, when the wet nurse was not paying attention, he would quickly snatch the child from her arms, give it to the wet nurse, and then occupy his wife.
Asking for a compensatory kiss, even if it's just a light kiss, can help him comfort his jealous heart a little.
[Ding! Warning: Your Highness is being too jealous today! Cause: The host has been holding the young prince for over a quarter of an hour without even glancing at him. Solution: It is recommended that the host promptly feed him a 'Smooth Hair Kiss'.]
118 Daily Report on the Prince’s Jealousy Index.
Dongfang Yuning smiled secretly:
[I know, I know! Oh, my husband is so jealous, what can I do? I just spoil him!]
In these chaotic days, mainly due to the prince's unilateral behavior, but also in these sweet and warm days, the two little ones' full moon period arrived.
Although Emperor Nangong Chengqian was far away in the capital, he sent Yanmao gifts like water, including silks, satins, gold, silver, jewelry, and rare antiques...
As if it were free, he fully expressed his respect and love for his aunt and his two younger siblings.
The Yanmao Port is even more bustling.
After this period of construction, the Princess's Residence, the Emperor's other residence, and the grandest of all, Prince Yong's Residence, were already complete. Standing side by side, the three residences, each with its own distinct yet harmonious style, became Yanmao Port's most dazzling landmarks.
The retired emperor Nangong Yumei called it enjoying family happiness, but in fact it was so that he could play chess with his younger brother and lose, and occasionally hug his soft little grandson, nephews and nieces.
The eldest princess Nangong Yue and her husband Shen Xiaoyun naturally moved into the brand new princess residence, which was only a few steps away from Prince Yong's residence, making it extremely convenient to visit.
The happiest person was Mrs. Xiao.
The most comfortable and spacious courtyards were reserved for her in the three mansions. Today she would stay in Prince Yong's Mansion to play with her grandchildren, tomorrow she would go to the Princess' Mansion to visit her great-grandson, and the day after tomorrow she would go to her eldest son's place.
Or she would play mahjong with her old sisters and the amateur opera fans she met at the Fuxing Theater. She lived a carefree life like a god, and she became more and more energetic, as if she was ten years younger.
During the day, everyone either handled affairs in the main hall of Prince Yong's Mansion or at the headquarters of Fengming Jiuxiao Chamber of Commerce. It was mainly handled by Chen Xiaoyun, supervised by Nangong Ye, and the others... watched. At night, they returned to their own residences, not disturbing each other, but also looking out for each other.
The situation of these three prefectures coexisting has become a unique landscape of Yanmao Port.
The full moon banquet was held in the largest garden of Prince Yong's Palace. No guests were invited, only officials familiar to Yanmao Port, business partners, and some important business contacts.
Even so, the place was packed with guests and was very lively.
Dongfang Yuning has finally officially "come out of confinement"!
Nangong Ye wanted her to continue the confinement for two months, but Dongfang Yuning refused sternly. She patted her chest and assured him that she was in good health and enjoyed eating everything, so one month was enough!
Nangong Ye carefully checked her and found that she was indeed rosy-cheeked and energetic, so he reluctantly agreed, but he still warned her: Don't get tired!
At the banquet, Dongfang Yuning wore a bright red palace dress specially tailored for her. The hem of the skirt was embroidered with an intricate pattern of flying phoenixes in gold thread, which was both festive and elegant.
After giving birth, her figure seemed to have become more plump and graceful than before, which held up her palace dress just right. Her skin was whiter than snow, her eyes were like stars, and her every move was full of natural charm. She instantly became the focus of the whole audience.
She was holding her daughter, and Nangong Ye was holding his son. The perfect couple stood together, their looks were stunning, and with the addition of two delicate and pretty girls wearing the same little dresses, the picture was as beautiful as a painting, attracting countless envious and blessing glances.
The two little guys were also very considerate. They didn't cry or make a fuss. They looked around curiously with their big black eyes, and occasionally they would grin with their toothless mouths, which made everyone fall in love with them.
There was only one little guy who was a little depressed - that was the son of Nangong Yue and Shen Xiaoyun.
The little guy was already able to stumble and run. At this moment, he was hugging his mother's legs, pointing at his younger brothers and sisters who were surrounded by people watching. His little face was wrinkled and he protested in a baby voice:
"Mother! That's not right! I'm the older brother! They are my sister and brother! Not my aunt and uncle!"
The issue of seniority really worries him!
He is obviously older than them, so why should he call them elder?
The little guy couldn't understand it, so he ran to his parents every day to complain and insisted on "rehabilitation."
Nangong Yue was at a loss for words and could only coax him patiently:
"Be good, the generations can't be messed up~ They are the children of your great uncle and your great aunt, so they are your great aunt and great uncle~"
The little guy seemed to understand, but was still angry and felt that the world was too complicated.
Chen Xiaoyun was so amused watching from the side that he picked up his son and secretly gave him a piece of candy:
"Come on, son, Daddy will take you to eat something delicious, don't worry about them!"
I felt secretly happy: [Uncle Emperor, you have come to this day! You are despised by the kid because you are older than me! ]
The banquet was held amid laughter and joy.
Although Dongfang Yuning only showed up holding the child and accepted some congratulations, she still felt a little tired after all the socializing. After all, she had just recovered.
