But when he saw those shifty men setting their eyes on his wife, Cui the Butcher became furious, and he tortured Lianhua in more and more ways at night. Lianhua gritted her teeth and persevered every time, until she was finally knocked unconscious by Cui the Butcher's tough attacks again and again.
Lotus's life was pretty good, but she hated the night. Cui the butcher was a dirty man...
But Jiuxi, who lived a life of luxury in the mansion, was not ordinary. She had been forced by Mingye to drink the extremely bitter medicine these days, and her expression every day was as aggrieved as if she had eaten bitter melon. But whether it was because of the medicine or something else, her originally thin body gradually became plump. Her chin was originally pointed, but now, it finally had some flesh on it. Naturally, Mingye felt it better too.
But he still hid the fact that she was pregnant. After all, immortals were different from humans, and it wasn't like they were pregnant for ten months.
These herbs were prepared by Mo Yu long ago in order to suppress the corpse qi of the child in her belly. Sure enough, once the corpse qi was suppressed, she seemed more energetic. However, what Mo Yu said was still clear in her ears. If the child was older... she would have to be prepared, because at that time, the child would drive the mother to suck blood.
Thinking of this, Ming Ye's eyes darkened a little, and he hurriedly poured the black medicine into the bowl. In fact, these things could be done by the maids in the mansion, but he was really worried. What's more, making medicine for her made him feel a little more happy.
When he brought the medicine in, he still had the bitter smell of medicine on him. When Jiuxi saw him, she subconsciously wanted to escape, but she heard him say, "After you finish the medicine, I'll take you out to play."
Although the medicine was very bitter, she was still very happy when she thought about going out to play after being bored for several days, so she drank the medicine faster. Mingye took a handkerchief and gently wiped the medicine stains on the corners of her mouth, and then fed her two black plums like a magic trick. It was the season when black plums were on the market, so he simply bought some more. Anyway, she liked to eat those sweets.
Seeing that she had finished drinking the medicine, Mingye ordered Yingchun to take the bowl out, while he went to the cabinet to get a cloak for her to wear. Then he carried her out of bed as if she were a treasure, and carefully put on her shoes and socks. Jiuxi looked at his bent waist and teased, "Your Majesty, you must have been a maid in your previous life."
Otherwise, how could he do these things so easily?
She thought he would refute her, but he glared at her with his devilish eyes and said, "I am willing to do these things for you."
After putting on her shoes and socks, she got out of bed. He put his arms around her waist, which had finally grown some flesh, and whispered, "You're still better off being plump and white."
For some reason, she thought of the insect still in the bottle... It was so white and fat... You couldn't even see its tentacles...
The two of them wandered outside. In fact, Mingye's mansion was quite grand. Buying land and building a house here was something that only high-ranking officials in Yangzhou could do. But he easily owned houses in this city and there. Even when he went out, he had a grand sedan chair to ride in. But she frowned and said, "I don't want to ride in a sedan chair."
She really felt that these days, she was more valuable than those young ladies in the capital, and there were people to support her wherever she went.
Seeing that she insisted, Mingye nodded and sent away the sedan chair, but he still protected her tightly, fearing that some ignorant person driving a carriage would hit her. Following behind her was Yingchun, who was wearing a light blue brocade skirt, but the fabric was something that even poor families could not afford in their lifetime, and she looked very luxurious. She had also gained some weight these days, and her face looked more fresh.
