On the winter solstice, there is a custom of cooking lamb on the grassland. A lamb pot is used as the main dish, and the other side dishes also use lamb as the main ingredient.
Because of the snowfall, it was inconvenient for most of the leaders of other tribes to come, so Nahan Oren simply held a small mutton banquet inside the tribe. The only people who attended were his female relatives and a few extremely trusted personal soldiers.
As the woman that Nahan Oren values most at the moment, Bai Yuzhi naturally has to participate.
So on the morning of the winter solstice, Nahan Oren personally put on Bai Yuzhi a pure white cloak made of white fox fur. The cloak was so thick that it almost crushed Bai Yuzhi himself. It was thick and fluffy. After putting it on, he looked like a round snowball, rounded into a ball.
In addition, she was almost five months pregnant and her belly was round, which made her look particularly cute.
Nahan Olun looked at her slow walk and picked her up in his arms with a playful look: "Holding you like this is like holding an extra soft lamb."
Bai Yuzhi angrily hit his arm, but unfortunately, with her limited strength, she couldn't shake Nahan Olun at all.
The man's arms were almost as thick as her legs. The difference in size was huge, and the difference in strength was even greater. No matter how Bai Yuzhi struggled, he held her firmly and pinched her rosy little face from time to time.
"I told you this white fox cloak is good, but you didn't believe me. Now you know."
Bai Yuzhi has always been afraid of the cold since she became pregnant. She didn't like to go out before. But now that she has the white fox cloak and is carried by Nahan Olun, she actually feels hot.
"Your Majesty, you have wronged me. I never said the white fox cloak was bad."
"Then why didn't you want to wear it before?" Nahan Oren raised his eyebrows and pinched the chubby little earlobe made of white jade.
"That's because I'm fat!"
The white jade-like texture looked wilted, perhaps because she always ate meat on the grassland or something else, but she seemed to be able to eat more during this pregnancy, and her belly grew faster and became rounder.
But Nahan Olun was very surprised to hear Bai Yuzhi say this: "Nonsense! How are you fat? It's because you are pregnant!"
What Nahan Oren said was true. Except for her round belly, Bai Yuzhi's arms and legs were still thin. At most, her cheeks had a little flesh, but she still had a pointed chin. Compared with her frail and slender appearance before, she now had a more charming temperament.
It has obviously become more beautiful.
It made him love it even more.
After he finished speaking, he put Bai Yuzhi down from his arms and looked around carefully. He was more and more certain that Bai Yuzhi was just fooling around. It was obviously only his lower abdomen that was round...
Nahan Oren suddenly paused.
He had paid close attention to the births of his four previous children. Even though he was not as meticulous about the white jade as he was with the other Yanshi, he still had a general understanding of the children's conditions.
Were the stomachs of the four children this big when they were five months in the womb?
Nahan Olun frowned and thought about it carefully, and found that he was not overthinking it. The white jade belly was indeed bigger, not like five months, but more like six months!
If a child grows too large in the womb, it's very likely to die. Nahan Oren remained expressionless, but in his heart he was thinking that he had to be more careful at this mutton feast and not let Bai Yuzhi eat so much.
Bai Yuzhi knew that she had two cubs in her belly that needed to be fed, but Nahan Olun didn't know. He thought about how much Bai Yuzhi ate compared to before she was pregnant, and he felt something was wrong.
Bai Yuzhi said that she wanted to walk the rest of the way by herself. Nahan Olun agreed, remembering that proper exercise would make childbirth easier for pregnant women. Anyway, he had already put on Bai Yuzhi a pair of deerskin boots that he had hunted during the horse race this morning, which would not let in water.
The two of them walked slowly. Nahan Olun was of course very fast. Every time he took a step, Bai Yuzhi had to step three times to catch up. But since Bai Yuzhi became pregnant, Nahan Olun consciously slowed down his pace and followed Bai Yuzhi's rhythm.
This resulted in both of them arriving very late.
The pot was already in front of the old ancestor. She was old and the weather was cold, so she had to put the food in the pot just to keep her warm, not just for food.
But others don’t have this blessing and have to wait for Nahan Oren to arrive before they can go up.
Seeing how slowly they were coming, the old ancestor knew that Bai Yuzhi must have walked here on his own, so he feigned seriousness, "Old Nine! You're becoming increasingly unruly. Why are you so late?"
The original intention was just a joke. The ancestor and Bai Yuzhi both knew what was going on, but there were some smart-minded people who insisted on interrupting. During the time that Bai Yuzhi was pregnant and recuperating, Princess Chaoyang had regained her former arrogance. Perhaps she had forgotten the pain now that the scar had healed.
She looked extremely ashamed, and even apologized to everyone present on behalf of Bai Yuzhi: "She is from my Great Chu. Now that she doesn't know the rules, it's all my fault for not teaching her well."
Chaoyang is the legitimate son and is older than Bai Yuzhi. Although it is unpleasant to hear this, it is not wrong to say it. However, following the rules is one thing, and whether the people who make the rules are willing to listen is another.
Now Bai Yuzhi didn't even need to pay attention to her. The old ancestor glanced at Chaoyang and pouted: "I didn't ask you, why are you butting in? You have learned these rules from the bottom of your heart."
"Hahahahahaha." Ever since Princess Chaoyang insulted the Third Prince, Si Yanshi had been at odds with Chaoyang. Seeing her being scolded, she felt much more pleased than Bai Yuzhi. She laughed and said, "That's exactly what the ancestor said!"
