Ever since returning from her fourth brother Jiang Xuetao's wedding, Jiang Xuelin has found herself in an extremely irritable state.
I don’t know if it’s because she’s more pregnant, but her belly changes every two days.
...but that was not the reason for her irritability.
The reason for his frustration was that he only had to go to the palace or the shop to deal with the "Tian Ri Zhao Zhao" tabloid issue; the rest of his time was spent with Fu Hanlai at home.
Although Jiang Xuelin is now a bit less mobile and can't eat like she used to, it doesn't affect her much otherwise. She can take walks in the courtyard since she can't go out. With such a big belly, she doesn't need anyone's help and can walk around by herself. It's just that her maids and nannies are worried and follow her very closely.
She would also do other things to pass the time, such as reading storybooks, or having her maid read them to her, or going to talk to Li Wenruo, admiring the flowers, or going to the martial arts arena.
Of course, she can't use her fists or feet, but Fu Hanlai can!
Since Fu Hanlai had nothing to do anyway, Jiang Xuelin was bored, so she simply let Fu Hanlai do some exercises for her to see, just as if she were exercising herself, and could also give him some pointers, or let Fu Hanlai spar with Master Wu.
Overall, life here is quite comfortable.
She wasn't so strong-willed as to think that pregnancy would drastically change her life and trap her, causing her to lose her freedom.
She really didn't think so!
But some people don't think that way.
"Jiang Xuelin, aren't you bored? How about I have an opera troupe come and perform for you?"
"..."
"Jiang Xuelin, aren't you annoyed that you can't move right now? Do you want me to find someone you can play with?"
"..."
"You've read Jiang Xuelin's original storybooks, don't you want to get a new one? Are you tired of them?"
"..."
Does your leg hurt?
"..."
"you……"
Jiang Xuelin didn't want to say anything. There were always people asking her questions, and she couldn't have a moment's peace.
“…How about this, no opera troupe.” After thinking it over, Jiang Xuelin finally couldn’t take it anymore. She didn’t know what was wrong with Fu Hanlai, he seemed to be getting more and more nervous, and now he didn’t even like to go out. He would often bother the doctor who lived not far from Qiutang Courtyard. She decided to find him something to do.
"I don't like the operas performed by the opera troupe; they're not interesting. Find me some dancers to come and perform."
The dancers were all incredibly beautiful; their figures and postures were just as interesting as watching a play.
That opera troupe only had so many plays; watching plays was less effective than having the girls read storybooks to her.
Fu Hanlai: "..."
Before he could even feel happy about the response, his face immediately fell.
Fu Hanlai couldn't help but think of Jiang Xuelin's past attitudes towards other women, and then compare them to Jiang Xuelin's attitude towards him...

"What's wrong?"
"...Nothing much. What type do you like? The gentle and delicate style of Jiangnan, the open and passionate style of the North, or perhaps the exotic style?" Although he was thinking to himself, he had to admit it since he was the one who said it.
Jiang Xuelin thought for a moment, then asked, "Is there anything that's full of power?"
Fu Hanlai: "...You still want a man?"
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
"Is there a sword dance?"
Realizing he had misunderstood, Fu Hanlai breathed a sigh of relief. He had been genuinely worried that Jiang Xuelin actually wanted to see men dance. With this initial misunderstanding, hearing that it was just a sword dance was no big deal.
"I'm not entirely sure about that, but I can ask around."
Although Fu Hanlai had spent many years outwitting Jiang Xuelin and wasn't particularly interested in these things, he was, after all, a well-known playboy in the capital and knew people who were enthusiastic about them, so he could easily find out by asking.
Then Jiang Xuelin lived the blissful life described in the poem "From then on, the emperor no longer held court in the morning"...
Of course, it would probably be even better if there wasn't an unromantic man around constantly nitpicking and finding fault with everything.
That day, in the Orchid Garden, a corner of the Prince Ping's residence, the gatekeeper saw Fu Han approaching and immediately bowed as if it were his usual greeting, "Young Master."
"Is Dr. Fang busy?"
"Dr. Fang is inside."
They stood guard at the door, unaware of exactly what they were doing.
Fu Hanlai didn't take it seriously when he heard this. He reached out and pushed open the door. The boy who was pounding medicine looked terrified when he saw him, put down the medicine bowl and ran inside, "Doctor Fang, the young master is here again!"
Upon hearing this, Doctor Fang, who was reading a medical book, immediately plucked out his beard. When Fu Han came in, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Young Master, I have already told you everything you wanted to know. There is really nothing else."
He was an old imperial physician who had resigned from his post. He was recommended by his nephew, Physician He, but he never expected that this would be such a difficult job.
The difficulty lies with this young master.
He could understand the other person's nervousness and anxiety about becoming a father for the first time, but he had really said all he could.
The only thing that gave Doctor Fang some comfort was that he wasn't alone. There were two other midwives who had been invited to the Prince Ping's residence early on, and they had the same experience as him, being bombarded with all sorts of random questions by Fu Han.
These people are genuinely afraid of Fu Hanlai now; they would avoid him even if they only heard his name from afar.
Who would have thought?
After bothering Doctor Fang again, Fu Hanlai went to visit the two midwives before returning to Qiutang Courtyard with a heavy heart.
well.
He had asked around in private and even looked up relevant medical books. Everyone said that twins were extremely dangerous, but he just didn't dare to show it.
It's been seven months already, and I don't know when I'll give birth!
I've heard that twins are often born earlier than expected.
well!
Jiang Xuelin, that carefree girl, had no idea how worried he was.
That evening, the two whispered to each other for a while. When Jiang Xuelin couldn't help but pat her belly again, Fu Hanlai quickly stopped her, then tenderly touched her swollen belly before going to sleep.
In the middle of the night, he was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt Jiang Xuelin nudging him from beside him.
"What's wrong? Do you want some water?"
"Fu Ashou, I think I patted my stomach too hard last night, and now I'm about to give birth..."
He heard Jiang Xuelin's suppressed voice in his ear, and then Fu Hanlai suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up, "Help! The Crown Princess is about to give birth! She's about to give birth! She's about to give birth!"
The door to the room was suddenly kicked open.
Jiang Xuelin, who was also startled awake, exclaimed: "Who's going into labor? Who's going into labor? Are you about to give birth?"
Fu Hanlai, who was jumping up and down on the bed: "..."
Thinking the baby was about to be born, Yao Mama and the others rushed in with their entourage: "..."
