Everyone laughed out loud at her clumsy greeting, but there was no sarcasm in their smiles. They were all quite cheerful.
Ma Qi looked at her in amazement. "No wonder His Highness didn't let us see her in Puzhou. It turns out the princess is so beautiful. What's going on? Is His Highness afraid that Gebulu and I will snatch her away? That's why he's hiding her like this."
Everyone laughed again.
Ma Qi could speak Central Plains dialect, so Su Qingci understood what he said.
Su Qingci glanced at Yan Xuanye, but he was not angry and was laughing and joking with them.
However, only Su Qingci knew that Yan Xuanye was not afraid that they would snatch her away, he was afraid that she would run away.
The relationship between the two of them was forced by him. If he hadn't sent someone to watch her, she would have run away long ago.
Everyone didn't know about the conflict between her and Yan Xuanye, and they actually thought that she and Yan Xuanye had a child because they were in love.
Now she and Yan Xuanye have successfully held their wedding ceremony and received the blessings of the wizards and the people. Her status is now clear, and everyone with bright and cheerful smiles respectfully and affectionately calls her "Princess."
Perhaps because she was already married, Yan Mingzhu's temperament was calmer than Yan Nanzhu's. Tonight, she learned that Su Qingci was pregnant, so she specially brought her some things she would need during the pregnancy.
Yan Xuanye was drinking with Duan Tai and the others, while Su Qingci was taken to a bedroom by Yan Mingzhu. It was obvious that she was very attentive and had selected a lot of things.
She stuffed a bottle into Su Qingci's hand and said, "This is pregnancy oil. It contains flaxseed oil, borage oil, argan oil, etc.
During pregnancy, when your belly gets bigger, you're more likely to get stretch marks. If you apply this oil on your belly after bathing every day, it will prevent them from growing."
Su Qingci knew that flaxseed oil was known as liquid gold and the golden seed of the nutritional world. Especially in this less developed era, edible flaxseed was only available to a few princes and nobles.
The oil yield of flaxseed is already low and the production cost is high, not to mention refining it into flaxseed oil.
Moreover, borage oil and argan oil are also extremely precious oils. This small bottle is very valuable.
Yan Mingzhu: "This massage technique is very important. If you press it incorrectly, it may even cause the fetal position to reverse. Come, I will teach you..."
Yan Mingzhu talked to her a lot, from prenatal education to childbirth and parenting. It was obvious that they all valued the baby in her belly.
Su Qingci's relatively bright mood became increasingly heavy. After all, the baby in her belly was not Yan Xuanye's child at all.
The main reason why they treated her so well was because of Yan Xuanye.
In fact, Su Qingci also discovered that if Yan Xuanye had not robbed her, she might not have hated them.
If you put yourself in her shoes, she is not a black-hearted person. It is just because of what happened between her and Yan Xuanye that it is impossible for her to be grateful and treat them like her family.
…
Su Qingci didn't know when Yan Xuanye carried him back to their bedroom. He drank a lot today, but his steps were steady and he didn't stagger around at all.
The area outside the bedroom was filled with gifts sent by everyone, including gold and silver jewelry, rare gems, silk fabrics and the like. There were also some gifts that were highly respected by the people of Fengyuan, and they were also delivered to her one by one.
Yan Xuanye was very happy today. He placed a gentle kiss on her cheek, but his big hand was dishonestly pulling at her collar.
Su Qingci's breathing quickened, and she quickly tried to stop him. "What are you doing? I'm pregnant, what do you want to do to me, you reckless man?"
Yan Xuanye gasped, "After all this, am I still a reckless man?"
Su Qingci had scolded him for this when he forcefully kissed her in the General's Mansion. Yan Xuanye thought that by now, she should have figured things out, but she still looked at him like this.
"Mad, sick, rude, reckless, get out, what else? Why don't you curse them all out tonight and let out some steam."
"how?"
His breathing became much heavier, and Su Qingci was really afraid that he would do something to her.
"If you hadn't suddenly acted like this, I wouldn't have scolded you. Get up from me quickly and stop pressing on my abdomen!"
Yan Xuanye snorted coldly, but she inexplicably felt a chill.
"Isn't it just that there's someone else's bastard in her belly?"
He was drunk and kissed Su Qingci. She dodged. Yan Xuanye controlled her jaw with both hands, forced her to turn her head, and then pecked and kissed her lips again and again.
Ever since she was diagnosed with pregnancy that day, Yan Xuanye hadn't touched her for many days. At most, he would hold her in his arms while sleeping.
She didn't let him kiss her, and Yan Xuanye was also angry. Perhaps because he had drunk alcohol today, he was a little out of control.
He held her face in his hands, his breath permeating her, surrounding her directly. "Do you know what my brothers said when they toasted me tonight?"
He frowned, his expression painful. "Besides blessing you and me, they also wished the child in your belly a safe birth. They were also speculating whether the child would look like you or me."
He suddenly became ruthless, moved his hands to her palms, and forcibly interlocked their fingers. He said viciously, "Do you know how uncomfortable and painful it is for me to hear those words?"
"Nothing could be more heartbreaking than this."
Su Qingci: "You knew it all along, so why bother doing this? Did I force you to accept the child in my belly?"
