Jiaming took another sip of tea, and after drinking it, she continued, "You see, this time I vomited later than the last time, which means I'm getting used to it. Once I get used to it, I think I won't vomit so badly anymore."
After a moment of thought, Hongxuan and Hongtao nodded, indicating that they understood.
"Good that you understand," Jiaming said, "In that case, there's no need to trouble the doctor or disturb you any longer."
Just as Jiaming had predicted, from that moment until the team rested at noon, a full two hours, she only vomited once.
Relieved by this, Hongtao stopped insisting on watching her mother constantly.
However, in the end, Hongxuan was sent to the Fourth Master by Jiaming.
Because she had a premonition that even though she was getting used to it, it would still be impossible for her to get used to it like when she came by carriage, without ever vomiting.
Since he was still vomiting, the air inside the carriage couldn't smell very good either. In order to avoid making Hongxuan uncomfortable and to prevent him from becoming anxious and worried when he saw him vomiting, she asked the Fourth Master to take him away.
But before leaving, the Fourth Prince still had the doctor check her pulse. Only after confirming that she was healthy and that the "little princess" she was carrying was doing well did he feel at ease and Jiaming board the carriage again.
In the afternoon, as Jiaming had predicted, although she didn't vomit as frequently as in the morning, she still vomited twice, but it was still better than in the morning.
On the second day, I vomited only three times throughout the day. In the following days, the number and timing of my vomiting remained the same, also three times.
Besides this miserable situation, I also have to cook several meals a day because I can't eat what others cook.
Both Hongtao and Fourth Master said they had worked hard, and Jiaming felt the same way, which was a small consolation that made her feel a little better.
For example, Hongxuan, although he was always under the Fourth Prince's care, would come to see her every day during the team's rest time, asking her with concern if she was feeling unwell, and patting her back to comfort her.
Not only that, but they would also reach out their little hands from time to time to help her serve tea, snacks and desserts.
Hongtao privately praised herself, saying, "Young Master is so good to you, Princess, he's so filial!"
After hearing this, Jiaming accepted Hongtao's praise for her son with a smile.
It was another afternoon when Jiaming woke up from her nap. Not long after she opened her eyes, she heard Hongtao tell her, "Master, the master just arrived."
"Oh! Master is here. What can I do for you?" Jiaming asked lazily as she sat up.
Hongtao handed a damp handkerchief to Jiaming and replied, "Master saw that you were sleeping soundly, so he didn't let me wake you. He just told me to tell you that he went back first."
"Oh, he went back first?" Jiaming was surprised and paused in wiping her face.
Hongtao nodded and continued, "Master said we were too slow, and that taking us with him would only slow him down, so he hurried back on his own."
The phrase "I'm being disliked and holding everyone back" kept echoing in Jiaming's mind, making her feel even more upset!
As her heart felt heavy, a sudden urge to vomit made Jiaming quickly throw away the handkerchief in her hand, grab the spittoon, and then vomit again.
