Chapter 362: Ophiopogon japonicus has difficulty giving birth
Gao Wanxin nodded.
Even if Zhao Xuan entered the palace, he could not mention the little prince.
After all, in the current situation, Her Majesty has to prepare for the ceremony of establishing the Queen, and if she has no time to raise the child, it would be good for Her Majesty to hand the child over to the Queen Mother.
In addition, the emperor is now in mourning and has left the child with the empress dowager. Perhaps the emperor will see the child more often.
If Zhao Xuan entered the palace, he also wanted to persuade Zhao Lingxi to relax.
After the queen is established, hurry up and have another child.
The first one is a prince, and the second one can be either a prince or a princess.
Gao Wanxin kept all the rewards, but Zhang wore them ostentatiously.
Zhang was embarrassed among her sisters because the man she married had no ability. Now, because of Zhao Lingxi's identity, she received a reward from the emperor, which gave her enough face. Therefore, she often wore the jade rewarded by the emperor to attend various banquets.
He was arrogant for quite a while during this period.
After Gao Wanxin learned about this, she kept frowning. She was really worried that Zhang would bring unnecessary trouble to the Zhao family if she continued to do this.
But if she told Zhao Xuan again, it would be difficult for Zhao Xuan, her father-in-law, to do anything about it.
Gao Wanxin had no choice but to go to the old lady and say a few words.
Two days later, Zhang was called by the old lady and scolded. Only then did Zhang keep quiet for a few days.
But in a hurry, Ophiopogon japonicus was born.
On the day Maidong gave birth, it snowed heavily. It kept snowing all day long. Lu Yu and Gao Wanxin were guarding by her side. Because the baby had a big head, Maidong suffered a lot during the birth.
Seeing that she still couldn't give birth, Gao Wanxin was worried, so she asked her maid to go to the Marquis' Mansion to deliver a message.
Yun Qiao and Gu Heng rushed over immediately.
Fortunately, the child was born not long after they arrived.
Yun Qiao gave some ginseng slices, and Gu Heng personally took Maidong's pulse after she gave birth. They only went back after confirming that she was fine.
When Maidong woke up, it was the maid beside her who told her that her sister-in-law and second brother had come.
She burst into tears.
Lu Yu and Gao Wanxin were trying to persuade him.
"You are a lucky person. Your family cares about you. Now that the child is born safely, you should take good care of your health."
"This time, thanks to the ginseng your sister-in-law sent you, you were able to give birth."
"Stop crying, or you might hurt your eyes."
Gao Wanxin looked at Maidong and persuaded him softly.
Lu Yu was holding the child and didn't dare to go forward, but he also wanted to go forward to see Maidong.
"We won't have any more children in the future. We only want this one."
Seeing how cautious he was, Maidong wiped away her tears and asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
"A boy, 78 jins, a bit heavy..."
Gao Wanxin chuckled, "You two can talk for a while, I'll go check on the soup. Ophiopogon japonicus can't eat greasy food, so I had the chicken soup skimmed three times, so it's not greasy."
"Thank you." Lu Yu said sincerely.
Gao Wanxin chuckled and said nothing.
According to Zhao Xuan's relationship, she is Lu Yu's elder.
Judging from her relationship with Maidong, they are good friends, so it is natural for her to take care of Maidong.
There were only two of them left in the room. Lu Yu came forward, his eyes turning red, and he held Mai Dong's hand.
"Maidong, we won't have any more children, never again. We only want this one. You don't know, you gave birth from day to night. I watched the midwife carrying basin after basin of blood and water. It really scared me to death."
When Maidong was giving birth, Lu Yu was waiting outside the door. He was expecting from the beginning whether Maidong would give birth to a boy or a girl. Later, when the child was not born, he was waiting outside the door anxiously.
Later, the child was not born, and they said that the child's head was too big and was stuck.
It is said that Ophiopogon's breathing has slowed down a lot.
The entire Lu Yu was in a panic.
He prayed in his heart that as long as Maidong was fine, it didn't matter even if the child was gone.
He just wants Ophiopogon japonicus to be well.
But when the midwife told him that the baby was born, a big fat boy weighing 7.8 jin, he had no intention of thinking about the baby at all, but only about Ophiopogon japonicus.
He rushed into the house and looked at his wife dying on the bed. He was afraid that Maidong would die.
He refused to hold the baby even when the midwife asked him to.
Even now, when he looked at his son, there was no love in his eyes. He just felt that his arrival almost harmed Maidong.
Now that there was no one around but the two of them, he revealed his true emotions.
Maidong looked at Lu Yu, who was about to cry, and chuckled at him.
"It's okay, I'm fine now, right?"
"Where's the child? Let me see."
Lu Yu then brought the child to her, "Fat boy." he said.
Maidong looked at her son. Actually, she didn't have much emotion in her heart at this time. She just felt that she was really amazing. She actually gave birth to a human being. This boy was quite cute.
"Like you." Mai Dong smiled and poked the child's face. "Lu Yu, we also have a child. We both have one more relative in this world."
Lu Yu didn't answer, just looked at Mai Dong straight.
"It doesn't matter if there's one more or one less. You're still my family, the one closest to me."
"That's different. You'll know what it feels like when your children grow up."
Maybe.
Lu Yu thought to himself.
When she learned that Maidong had given birth to a big fat boy, Old Lady Zhao was very happy. She kept asking the servants to bring all the delicious food and drinks to her room.
But you can't eat Ophiopogon japonicus at this time, after all, your body is still very weak after giving birth.
If you want to nourish your body, you have to wait for a while for your body to recover. Don't overdo it when your body is at its weakest. Not only will it not nourish your body, but it will make you weaker.
Gao Wanxin mainly prepares light meals for Maidong.
Maidong had no milk production after giving birth, and the baby couldn't eat. When she got anxious, she had no milk at all.
I could only call the substitute wet nurse, but the little guy didn't recognize her and started eating.
Maidong was so angry that he called his son a little bastard and said that whoever gave him milk was his mother.
But it was a good thing, because Maidong had a difficult birth and her body was severely torn, so she needed to lie down for a while. The baby was being fed by a wet nurse, so she could take good care of herself. In addition, the doctor prescribed some medicine for her, so she didn't have to be afraid to take medicine because of breastfeeding.
Because she has to take care of Maidong, Gao Wanxin goes out early and comes back late, so naturally she cannot take care of Zhao Xuan.
The few careless maids in the house were also eager to try.
Gao Wanxin came back from Maidong's yard and heard crying in the house.
"Sir, I didn't do it on purpose. I did it because Madam said she would give me her face to warm your bed."
"Get out, you bastard."
Zhao Xuan was tidying his clothes, and just as he looked up, he saw Gao Wanxin coming in from outside by lifting the door curtain.
"Wanxin, I..."
Gao Wanxin walked up to the maid and gave her two big slaps in the face.
"Did I instruct you to do this? Did I give you a face?"
"Yu'er, find someone to sell this troublesome little hoof. My master has been in poor health recently and doesn't get tired easily, so I let him sleep in the wing room, and that troublesome thing climbed onto the bed. Is my master's health more important, or your stupid thoughts?"
"Remember this, the health of the adults in this family always comes first."
Zhao Xuan looked at Gao Wanxin and got angry.
"Alright, sell them directly. If there are any troublemakers in this courtyard, send them directly to the farm and select a few honest ones to serve in the house."
Zhao Xuan frowned.
Gao Wanxin hummed, "Your Excellency is right. I'll make arrangements right away."
Gao Wanxin turned around and was about to leave, but Zhao Xuan grabbed her hand and said, "Don't worry, you've been busy all day, aren't you tired? Sit down and rest for a while."
Gao Wanxin followed Zhao Xuan and sat on the chair.
The maid brought tea and cakes politely.
Yun Qiao talked about the situation on Maidong's side.
"...Mai Dong gave birth this time, but it scared Lu Yu a lot. He didn't dare to do anything, so I just stayed by his side to help."
"And we have to take care of the full moon banquet. The old lady said that Lu Yu is the nephew of the Zhao family and he has no parents to take care of it, so as his aunt, I have to pay close attention to it. Since the old lady has said so, I can't refuse and will work hard for a while."
"Thank you for your hard work. Look how much thinner you have become."
Zhao Xuan gave her a piece of cake.
Gao Wanxin took it and took a nibble. "We're all family, so why bother talking about being tired or not?"
"There is something I want to tell you, sir. I want to go back to my hometown in a while. I won't be away for long, just a month or so."
Zhao Xuan asked, "Why are you thinking of going back home for no reason?"
"Both my parents have passed away. Now I have settled down, have a prosperous life, and have two lovely children. I always want to go and pay my respects."
The Qingming Festival is coming soon.
Zhao Xuan thought so too and did not stop her. He told her to bring more people with her to ensure her safety on the road.
