Ren Yaoqi had been married to the prince for a while, but she hadn't seen Madam Gong again. She had asked Madam Xin about this before, but Madam Xin had said that Madam Gong was old and didn't like to go out much. She lived in a small courtyard behind the prince's mansion. Ren Yaoqi had asked Madam Xin to send Madam Gong sweet-scented osmanthus dumplings and other snacks a few times.
The princess treated Madam Gong with great courtesy and kindness. Madam Gong had poor hearing, and after a few words of misunderstanding, Madam Gong suddenly looked at Ren Yaoqi and smiled, "Young Madam, thank you for the glutinous rice balls and snacks you sent me. They are delicious. You don't know, they all bully me, an old woman, and don't give me any snacks."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Xin said helplessly, "Nanny, you are talking nonsense in front of the master again! The doctor said you can't eat too much sweets. The maids are all doing this for your own good."
Madam Gong nodded: "That's right, those little girls are all unruly! It's time to change them!"
Nanny Xin: “…”
Madam Gong turned around and spoke to Ren Yaoqi: "Young Madam, come here. This old servant is here to take your pulse."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned. Why did he need to take her pulse when she was in good health?
The princess smiled but said nothing. Nanny Xin, on the other hand, smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes. Since Nanny Gong is here today, please take the young lady's pulse. Don't underestimate Nanny Gong because she's old. She's still very accurate in taking pulses. After she takes your pulse, I guarantee you'll be pregnant soon."
Ren Yaoqi finally understood that Nanny Gong was checking her pulse to see if she was in a good condition for pregnancy. Seeing the princess looking at her with hope in her eyes, Ren Yaoqi couldn't refuse and offered her arm to Nanny Gong. Nanny Xin quickly came over and placed a soft pillow under Ren Yaoqi's wrist.
When Matron Gong took her pulse, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and her fingers on her wrist were trembling a little. Ren Yaoqi was a little worried whether she could find her pulse.
Madam Gong carefully took Ren Yaoqi's pulse three times before releasing her hand. She also straightened Ren Yaoqi's sleeves and asked, "Young Madam, have you taken the prescription I gave you on time?"
Ren Yaoqi had some doubts about Madam Gong before, so she did not take the medicine she prescribed.
When Madam Gong asked, she said, "Because I was taking another tonic prescription before, I was worried that mixing them together would not be good for me, so I wanted to wait a while after I stopped taking the previous prescription before using it."
Ren Yaoqi did not lie. Before her marriage, her grandmother also sent her a prescription for conditioning her body. She took it for a while, but has stopped taking it now.
Upon hearing this, Madam Gong nodded but said nothing.
The princess smiled and said, "Mammy, how is Yaoqi doing? What prescription did you prescribe for her?"
As Matron Gong slowly ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake Matron Xin handed her, she said, "Young Madam, you're in good health. There's no doubt you'll have no problem conceiving. The recipe I gave you is the same one you used when you were young. If you take it for a while, you'll be able to conceive sooner, and you'll have less pain during childbirth."
When everyone present heard this, their eyes turned to Ren Yaoqi's belly, and Ren Yaoqi couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
The princess smiled and said to Ren Yaoqi, "I've used that recipe before. Since Madam Gong gave it to you, you can try it in the future. It's quite useful."
