"Oh my God, Sister Yu Zheng, I haven't seen you for just a few months, how come your belly is so big?" Princess Lingxuan was amazed when she saw Yu Yu Zheng's unusually big belly.
"Twins are bigger than others." Yu Zheng also felt that her belly seemed a little too big.
Her legs are starting to swell and she has trouble sleeping every night.
It is difficult for her to turn over and she often needs her husband's help.
She had to put a pillow under her legs to raise her feet higher, otherwise her legs would be more swollen the next day.
Shangguan Ziqi was anxious when he saw his wife in so much pain, but he had no idea what to do.
I can only massage my wife’s legs before going to bed every night until the swelling is almost gone.
"Don't stand at the door. I'll help you go in and sit down. Seeing your big belly, I feel so tired for you." Princess Lingxuan stepped forward, pushed the maid aside, and supported the person.
In fact, Yu Yuzheng just walked around in the yard. This was an exercise plan she set for herself.
Ever since she found out she was having twins, she has been exercising every day according to her own plan.
At first, I did some labor-related yoga, but later, as my belly became too big, I changed to taking walks.
Now, more than seven months into the pregnancy, she has started doing yoga under the fetal head.
No matter how hard it is, she has to persevere. Otherwise, in this backward ancient time, it would be extremely difficult for her to give birth to twins without a strong physical foundation.
She is young, only seventeen years old, her development is not complete, and her pelvis is not big enough.
Several people entered the main hall, and the princess was sitting in the main seat waiting for them and their brother and sister.
"Hello, Aunt Qin." The two siblings greeted together.
"Why are you here?" The princess was still a little surprised.
When she was rumored to be pregnant, her good friend Princess Jing did not come to her house to see her, and neither did the two children.
But she didn't think about it elsewhere, after all, the two had met at the palace banquet during the New Year and said a lot of caring words to each other.
"Aunt Qin, we came here today to tell you good news." Princess Lingxuan smiled happily, as if she had picked up a lot of treasures, her smile was extremely bright.
Cao Jinyu is not much different.
"What good news? Has your mother chosen your ideal husband for you?" the princess teased.
"No way! My mother is pregnant, just like Aunt Qin. We came here to tell you." Princess Lingxuan blushed.
When Yu Zheng heard this, her eyebrows raised immediately.
"Really? That's great. Now people won't just laugh at Princess Yu."
Although the princess accepted the fact that she was pregnant, she still felt embarrassed sometimes because of her age. Now that there was someone like her, she was no longer embarrassed.
After hearing her words, several people laughed.
"Haha, Aunt Qin, why do you have such an idea?
My mother was very happy, but she was afraid that something might happen, so she didn't tell anyone until the baby was firmly seated.
Even we don't know, only our father knows.
At first we all found it very strange why our father hummed little tunes when he went out and came in every day. We had never seen him so happy before.
We were not informed until a few days ago when the doctor said the fetus was stable."
Princess Lingxuan said these words happily, but with a hint of complaint in her voice.
Her father and mother were so unkind that they even hid the truth from their son and daughter.
"Your mother didn't have morning sickness?"
The princess was puzzled. The fetus was already firmly seated, which meant it had been at least three months. Wouldn’t she have vomited violently, causing the two children to become suspicious?
"No. What are the reactions to pregnancy?"
This silly child didn’t even know that there would be morning sickness during pregnancy. It shows how careless she is.
"Shiyun is a lucky person. Alas, my vomiting is known to everyone. I tried many ways to get rid of it, but nothing worked. Finally, it was Zheng'er who suggested that eating pickled cabbage would be better. I couldn't hide it from anyone."
The princess was happy that her friend was also pregnant.
"Then your mother was a month earlier than me?" The princess suddenly thought of this question.
"Yes, Aunt Qin. It was diagnosed at the end of winter.
Later, my mother told us that when my brother-in-law performed the operation on her, he had said that if she recovered, she might be able to give birth to another child for our father. She didn't expect that what he said would come true.
My father really wanted to find my brother to go to his house to take a good look at my mother, but he couldn't find anyone.
In all this time, we have only seen Brother 㨾 twice.
Really, he didn't even leave an address so we could go find him."
Princess Lingxuan has a good impression of her brother who is a genius doctor, but she has only met him twice, and he was wearing a mask. If he stood in front of her now, she might not recognize him.
So she felt a little resentful towards her sworn brother, asking why he was so mysterious.
After hearing her words, the princess smiled and looked at Yu Zheng.
"What did the doctor say?"
"The imperial physician said that mother is a little weak and needs to eat more good food. Father now supervises mother to eat more every day. He also asks the kitchen to cook all kinds of food for mother.
My mother said that she was now a pig and she just had to eat."
"Ha ha......"
Princess Lingxuan's words made everyone laugh.
"Aunt Qin, why haven't I seen Brother Ziqi?" Cao Jinyu felt a little awkward listening to the women chatting endlessly, so it would be better to find a friend to talk to.
"He has received a large order in the workshop outside the manor, and he is needed to arrange and supervise it." Yu Yuzheng spoke for the princess.
"Then I'll go find him, you two can chat slowly."
When Cao Jinyu arrived at the workshop, he found a gatekeeper who wouldn't let him in.
"Sir, we don't allow outsiders to enter our workshop. Please forgive me." The gatekeeper was a retired veteran who was missing an arm. He was very dedicated to the job.
"Is the big one in there?"
"Hey, if you're looking for our eldest son, I can go in and report it." The gatekeeper was very polite.
"You are the prince of Prince Jing, but you are not allowed to come in?" Cao Jinyu wanted to go in and take a look, so he had to reveal his identity.
"Oh, I'm honored to meet the Prince of Jing, but the eldest son has said that no one is allowed to enter the workshop except the workers and the manager." The gatekeeper knew his identity but did not let him in.
"Forget it, let's go in and report." Cao Jinyu was very depressed.
Shangguan Ziqi came out in a wheelchair and it turned out that he was really a good friend.
"Ziqi, isn't this just a pill-making workshop? Why is it kept so secret? Let brothers have a tour?" Cao Jinyu's interest was piqued.
This is his sworn brother's property, shouldn't he take a look at it?
"There's nothing to see, it's all medicine, and the smell is very strong. I'm afraid you'll be choked. How did you find time to come here?" Shangguan Ziqi made up an excuse.
"I have something to talk to you about." Cao Jinyu didn't force it, as he didn't understand pharmacology.
The two of them went to the farm together and came to Shangguan Ziqi's temporary study.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Shangguan Ziqi asked puzzledly.
"My mother is pregnant, but my father is very worried, afraid that her body cannot withstand the pregnancy and childbirth.
Can you contact my brother-in-law? Ask him to come to my house to see my mother.
We couldn't find him at all, and had no news of him at all.
You and your wife are the only ones who have business cooperation with him." Cao Jinyu stated his purpose.
