Chapter 105 Things Get Interesting
"She's concerned about the Ninth Prince, so it's fine if she sticks to him... but how could she possibly embarrass you?"
The more Yan'er thought about it, the more justified he felt.
Anyway, this matter brought disaster upon their wife completely without cause!
Pu Qiongzhi laughed, "She did something like this, so we should just fight back!"
"Don't sweat such trivial matters."
As she spoke, she patted Yan'er's shoulder.
"But people are talking about you outside... and what they say is really unpleasant!"
"If Madam were a man, it would be fine. This world is so unfair to women. If something goes wrong, they always blame it on women for being undisciplined."
Pu Qiongzhi curled her lips and looked at her, "I don't want to be the man you're talking about!"
"My amazing talent comes from being a girl."
"When you're at a disadvantage, things become interesting! When I'm playing against them, winning is also winning, and losing is also winning. Things that were once mundane suddenly become meaningful!"
"Every step I climbed was on the necks of those who looked down on me!"
Yan'er didn't quite understand what his wife was thinking.
However, she felt that if the lady was happy, then this would be a great thing!
"They say it's a rumor, but it's most likely the Ninth Prince who started it! If anyone is to blame, he can't be left out!"
As Yan'er spoke, he changed the target of his attack.
"Oh, why is our Miss Yan'er so angry? Don't say such things!"
Yan'er curled his lips and wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Zhitao who broke in.
"Madam! The medicine for Manager Zhai has been found!" Zhitao walked forward quickly to deliver the message.
Pu Qiongzhi showed a little surprise, "Who found it?"
"It's Xingyou Grass!" Zhitao couldn't hide the excitement in his voice.
Pu Qiongzhi stood up, took two steps, and sat back down. "Then quickly call the imperial physician... Wait, I have to go to the palace myself."
I haven't got the ambergris yet, so I just happened to go to the palace to ask Concubine Ru for it.
"But, will the Royal Concubine Ru help us so easily?" Zhitao paused, his eyes full of worry.
Pu Qiongzhi wasn't sure either, but she had no reason to refuse. "Prepare some more gifts and invite Yu Ge'er along!"
…
"You finally came to see me?"
Ru Guifei is already more than four months pregnant, and the fetus is considered to be stable.
Pu Qiongzhi saw that she had lost a lot of weight and looked very haggard.
"Since you have no appetite during pregnancy, I brought some preserved fruits to satisfy your craving."
When Concubine Ru heard this, she reached out and said, "Bring it to me quickly!"
"I have a good appetite. This child is well-behaved, but he gets hungry easily."
Pu Qiongzhi heard her say this and asked, "Have you called the imperial physician?"
"It's okay. I'm just not in good health. The imperial physician is taking care of me!" Nangong Han looked at it and knew what was going on.
Pu Qiongzhi didn't ask any more questions, but just kept this matter in mind.
"Grandma, come and try it! I brought you some hawthorn cakes, they're really appetizing! Only if you eat enough, your uncle in your belly will grow fat and white!"
"It's been a long time since I saw you, Yu'er!" Nangong Han couldn't help showing her joy.
She feels happy whenever she looks at her child, and always fantasizes whether her own child will be as sensible as her.
"Brother Yu is so thoughtful! I was craving this!" She took it with a smile and tasted it. "Hmm, the cakes that Brother Yu brought are so delicious!"
"This is the pastry from my shop! It's from Zhenxiangxuan!" Nangong Jiayu was a child after all, and couldn't help showing off.
Nangong Han was a little surprised, "Wow! That's a famous pastry shop in Kyoto!"
"Hehe, it was given to me by my aunt! I took part in the imperial examination and my aunt rewarded me!" Nangong Jiayu chattered away, telling the whole story.
Nangong Han was surprised. "Brother Yu is taking the imperial examination at such a young age? Does our Nangong family have a Wenquxing?"
"I'm just going to give it a try. I can't say for sure if I can get a rank." Nangong Jiayu felt a little embarrassed.
Nangong Han was certain, "You will definitely win! With the merits of your grandfather and your father, you, as a descendant of our family, are all blessed!"
"Hua'er, what has she been busy with recently?" She chatted with Nangong Jiayu for a while before looking at Pu Qiongzhi.
Pu Qiongzhi recalled the last time...
He seems to be busy dealing with the affairs of Peng Mingxuan and Ning Fangfei recently.
Pu Qiongzhi thought she should ask him if he was the one who caused Ning Fangfei to run to Yuelai Inn.
"He's been at home with my father lately. It's rare that they share similar interests, so they get along very well."
Pu Qiongzhi did not tell the truth.
Although Ning Fangfei's matter was not a big deal, she always felt something was wrong.
If she told the truth, it would probably make Concubine Ru worried.
Worrying too much during pregnancy may not be beneficial to fetal health.
What's more, the relationship between Nangong Hua and his relatives... seems a little subtle.
As his wife in name only, she should try her best to stay out of these matters!
"Your father has been busy for most of his life, and it's time for him to enjoy his life. But Nangong Hua, that brat, is so young and not as hardworking and motivated as Yu Ge'er!" Nangong Han suddenly slammed the table, "Now that he's the head of the family, how can he leave everything to you?"
"It's okay, it's not a big deal..." Pu Qiongzhi didn't expect her to get angry suddenly, and was afraid that she would get hurt, so she hurried to persuade her.
Nangong Han said, "You have to manage business outside and manage the household, and we relatives can't help you much... It's our Nangong family who has suffered a loss because of you. How can I let this kid off so easily?"
"When you go back today, tell him I want to see him and tell him to come back to the palace tomorrow! I'll beat him until he cries for his parents!"
"Aunt, if you have anything to say, let's wait until you give birth to your uncle! My uncle is very fierce and he will beat us to death!" Nangong Jiayu's face turned pale and she quickly waved her hand to stop the impulsive aunt.
Nangong Han was stunned, her face darkening even further. "He hit you? He dared to hit you? Who gave him the courage?! This is outrageous!"
"No, no, uncle didn't beat the child, don't worry, auntie! This is all a misunderstanding!" Pu Qiongzhi was really scared by her. She poured her some water while explaining to her.
Nangong Han froze for a moment, then felt extremely ashamed. "Did he hit you? Where did he hit you? How could our Nangong family give birth to such a beast!"
"No! No!" Pu Qiongzhi's hands trembled, and the water almost spilled. "It was because my Third Uncle and I had some disagreements before. My uncle thought my Third Uncle was disrespectful to me, so he beat me with a stick. It's been a long time now, but this little devil has remembered it!"
Nangong Jiayu was given an angry look by her aunt, and she hated her uncle even more in her heart, "Uncle is bad! Aunt is good!"
"Look at this family. Without you, I'm afraid it would have broken up long ago!" Nangong Han held his forehead and smiled bitterly.
