Chapter 15 Contraceptive pills? So confused!
Ji Qingrong was both embarrassed and anxious.
In order to win Lu Juan's heart, she threw aside her dignity and reserve as a mistress and used all her skills in bed.
Even so, even though we had sex almost every night, there was still no movement in my stomach, and instead I developed symptoms of yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire.
She bit her lower lip tightly, then released it, her tone helpless.
"Fifth sister, as your elder sister, I will not hide the truth from you. When my eldest brother was on a diplomatic mission to Southern Chu, I specifically asked him to find a local doctor who specializes in treating infertility. I have consulted all the famous doctors in Lin'an City."
By chance, he found his fifth sister.
"Big sister, do you believe me?" Ji Qingwu asked.
Looking at Ji Qingwu's bright eyes, Ji Qingrong was actually a little hesitant in his heart, but still nodded.
Ji Qingwu observed her complexion and analyzed calmly: "Big sister, your physical condition does need careful conditioning, but besides this, there is a bigger problem in your pulse."
Ji Qingrong's heart tightened, and she asked anxiously, "What is it?"
"Big sister, do your hands and feet become cold every time you have your period? You are extremely afraid of heat and always want to eat something cold? When your period is about to end, it takes several days for it to stop."
Seeing that Ji Qingwu described her symptoms clearly, Ji Qingrong nodded seriously.
"That's right."
Ji Qingwu said: "I guess he may have taken some medicine that damaged his foundation by mistake."
As soon as these words came out, Qiao's expression changed instantly.
Who would be so bold as to drug the Crown Prince's wife?
Upon hearing this, Ji Qingrong's expression became even uglier, and her pretty face suddenly became dim and bloodless.
Seeing her reaction, Ji Qingwu was afraid that Ji Qingrong might not have taken the medicine herself, and she knew about it.
Qiao noticed this and quickly asked, "Qingrong, have you taken any medicine?"
Ji Qingrong's lips turned pale as she said, "Mom, I took contraceptive pills for a year."
Contraceptive pills? !
Qiao was horrified: "Qingrong! How could you be so confused!"
"I was still young when I got married. I heard from my second sister-in-law that she had a difficult labor and hemorrhage during childbirth and almost died. I was really scared, so I went to the old doctor at Qingchun Hall and got him to prescribe contraceptive pills."
Qingchuntang is the most famous medical clinic in Lin'an City, with countless rare and precious medicines.
Ji Qingrong also knew that this medicine should not be taken carelessly, so she explained, "The old doctor assured me that this pill contains nourishing medicine and will not harm a woman's body. Moreover, I have heard that many ladies have used this pill."
Mrs. Qiao nodded her head in dismay and said, "Now you've ruined your body. You don't want to have children when you can, and you can't have them when you want to. What can I say about you? This is tantamount to destroying your own Great Wall!"
"There will be no problem with this medicine. I have investigated it very carefully before." Ji Qingrong said stubbornly.
The eldest daughter Qingrong has been able to make her own decisions since she was young, and she rarely makes mistakes. She is also good at learning from one instance and doing an excellent job of reading account books, drawing up bills, and managing the household affairs. Mrs. Qiao has always been very confident in her.
But he also developed a habit of "doing big things quietly" and is not used to discussing anything with others.
Mrs. Qiao was so worried that she had wrinkles on her forehead. She said sternly, "Qingrong, why didn't you go home and talk to mother? Instead, you ate the meatballs as you pleased, and even ate them for a whole year."
Faced with Qiao's reproach, Ji Qingrong began to waver.
But she knew that if she told this to Mrs. Qiao, her mother would definitely not agree. She would only advise her to give birth to a eldest son as soon as possible so that she could gain a foothold in the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion.
However, she had difficulty in having children, and she never imagined that it was because of the contraceptive pills.
But it was too late to regret now, she could only place all her hopes on her fifth sister.
Meeting Ji Qingrong's earnest gaze, Ji Qingwu said softly, "Big sister, don't blame yourself. Women giving birth have always been walking through the gates of hell. It's right for you to think of contraception when you are not ready."
"Fifth sister..." Ji Qingrong's eyes turned red again.
In fact, she felt extremely guilty. If she hadn't been so pretentious, she wouldn't have played such a good hand so badly.
As the wife of the prince, she could not give birth to a legitimate son. She could only watch her mother-in-law send women to the prince's room one by one in the name of having no heir. Although she had used some tricks to win over Lu Juan, what about the future...
Mrs. Qiao sighed and said, "Xiaowu, is there any cure for your elder sister's illness?"
Ji Qingwu asked, "Big sister, do you have any remaining contraceptive pills? I want to identify what ingredients are in them."
"Yes." Ji Qingrong thought for a moment and said, "I didn't use them all up. The remaining balls are in a box in the cabinet in my room where my dowry is stored. I didn't bring them with me."
"No hurry, I will go to the Loyal and Brave Marquis's residence in person tomorrow."
The next morning, it was just dawn.
Ji Qingwu sent Jiujiu to Anjuyuan and asked Mrs. Qiao and Nanny Li to take care of her.
She sat in the carriage that Mrs. Qiao had prepared for her long ago and went to the residence of Marquis Zhongyong. She leaned against the wall of the carriage with her eyes closed and pretended to be asleep. Suddenly, she heard the neighing of a horse and the carriage stopped suddenly.
Her head hit the car with a bang.
Ji Qingwu opened his eyes, covered his head and asked, "What happened?"
Coachman: "Fifth Miss, someone is stopping the carriage."
Before she could react, the curtain of the carriage was rudely opened.
When the visitor saw her, his eyes lit up and he said in surprise, "You must be the fifth sister."
Ji Qingwu frowned as he looked at the Lecher in front of him who was wearing a dark blue brocade robe and a white jade flute hanging around his waist.
He stopped her carriage in the street and directly lifted the curtain of her sedan chair without any courtesy.
Seeing her staring at him, Ji Changyan smiled awkwardly and said, "It's me. I'm your third brother."
It would have been fine if Ji Qingwu didn’t know, but he would have been even more angry after knowing.
If word gets out about Ji Changyan's ridiculous act of stopping a woman's carriage on the street and getting in without an invitation, people will just say that the Ji family is ignorant of etiquette. In this world, the woman of the Ji family will also be gossiped about.
"Fifth cousin, long time no see." A smiling voice came from behind Ji Changyan.
Ji Changyan lifted the curtain, turned around and said, "Your Highness, you are really as good as a god. You recognized this as the Ji family's carriage at once, and you can even guess who is in the carriage."
Prince Yong stood beside the carriage, his evil eyes fixed on Ji Qingwu's face, then slowly slid down to her waist.
She was wearing a moon-white outer skirt made of brocade cloud jacquard silk today. Because it was too flowing, she tied a silk ribbon embroidered with light blue lotus flowers around her waist, with the two ends hanging down at her sides in pointed shapes.
Ji Qingwu pulled down the curtain from Ji Changyan's hand, blocking the disgusting sight.
She said coldly, "Your Highness Prince Yong, Third Brother, I have something else to do. Time is tight, so I won't chat with you two any longer."
Ji Changyan was surprised to see his fifth sister, who had just returned home, dare not give him face.
