Chapter 108 Hug the Child
Ji Yunqing left the princess's courtyard in a happy mood and even hummed a song.
She managed to get by today!
The princess also praised her for being sensible and sincere, and gave her a lot of rewards, which she would send to her later.
The princess has always been generous, and nothing she gives is bad.
Of course, Ji Yunqing didn't come here for the reward.
She touched the mutton-fat jade bracelet that had just been put on her hand and said, "I'm just in a good mood!"
Xuancao watched her master taking small steps happily, which was completely different from the feeling of walking towards the guillotine step by step when she came here in the morning. Her mind was full of doubts.
When they were a little further away from the main courtyard, she couldn't help but ask, "Master, why are you so happy?"
"Happy? Really?" Ji Yunqing said with a smile: "Isn't it always like this?"
no
Hemerocallis wants to say, didn’t you say this morning that you really didn’t want to come?
Ji Yunqing walked forward while smiling, thinking to himself, if I am not happy after coming out of the princess's courtyard, can I still look sad?
If people saw this, wouldn't they say that the princess was deliberately making things difficult for her?
Especially, the princess gave money, and Ji Yunqing is not really stupid, so how could he not know how to behave?
Do you still want to work under someone else?
Thinking of this, Ji Yunqing became even happier.
The arm wearing the jade bracelet waved, and the fingers pointed excitedly towards the blue sky.
"Hemerocallis, look, the sky is so nice today, the clouds are so white, the birds are singing beautifully, the trees are so green, and the princess is so nice!"
Xuancao nodded in confusion: "Master is right!"
As soon as the words fell, a voice sounded faintly: "You still remember to come out!"
The master and servant were startled by the sudden voice. Ji Yunqing looked closely and said, "Concubine Wen? Why are you here? Are you going to have tea?"
Concubine Wen and several maids were standing at the fork in the road, on a small gravel path beside it.
Ji Yunqing remembered that if he walked further along the path, he would find a small maple forest. It was late autumn now, and the red maples looked like gold and fire. It would definitely be a great experience to sit there, drink tea, and enjoy the scenery.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Wen just glanced at her, snorted, and turned away with her maids.
Ji Yunqing was a little surprised. After the others left, she hesitantly asked Xuancao, "I didn't offend her, did I?"
Daylily shook her head.
Could it be because she was unhappy because she gave birth to a child and Concubine Wen did not?
Is it because she gave birth to a child, and Wen concubine didn't have any children, so she was unhappy?
But this is not something she can decide. She can't just hold back on giving birth to the baby once it's coming, right?
Ji Yunqing shook his head and decided not to think about it anymore.
"Come on, let's go back."
When he finally returned to the yard, as soon as Ji Yunqing entered the door, he heard loud crying.
She paused in her movement and after hesitating for two seconds, she chose a tactical retreat.
"Hemerocallis, go check what's going on. I'll go outside for a walk."
Xuancao quickly grabbed her master and stopped her from leaving: "Master, it's the little master crying, go and have a look!"
How can a mother be like this? She didn’t care at all when her child was crying.
Just know how to rely on others.
Ji Yunqing didn't want to go no matter what: "He cried so loudly, he will be fine after he gets tired of crying. I'll wait outside."
Xuancao didn't give up and still pulled her. Nanny An heard the sound and came out with the child in her arms: "Master, you are Ruirui's mother, you can just coax her and she will be fine."
Ji Yunqing argued: "I have only known him for two months. We are not familiar with each other and I can't coax him——"
As she was speaking, Nanny An had already stuffed the child into her hands.
Ji Yunqing looked at the tiny child in the cradle, his upper body stiffened: "It's so small, I can't hold it, you guys take it."
She usually just teases the child while he is playing in bed. How could she have ever done something as difficult as holding a child?
Ruirui was held in a different embrace, and his crying became much quieter. He looked at the person in front of him with curiosity, scratched around with his little fists, and actually grinned.
Nanny An was very pleased: "Our young master is really smart. He knew it was mother, right?"
"What can he know in just two months?"
Ji Yunqing was so anxious that she was sweating all over her forehead: "Mammy, please take him back quickly, I think he is about to pee."
"Our Ruirui just peed, so don't worry, Master."
Nanny An said this but still brought the little baby over.
The little master is still young. If he really falls, it will be too late for her to cry.
After the child was taken away, Ji Yunqing felt much more relaxed. It was not that she didn't want to hold the child. She would only feel at ease holding the child when he grew up a little and looked stronger.
Ji Yunqing stared at the tiny person in Nanny An's arms. How did she give birth to such a big guy?
Isn’t she so amazing?
Nanny An often risked her life to advise: "Master, you should hug the little master more. What mother wouldn't hug her child?"
Ji·Incompetent·Yun Qing: "I won't hug you, I won't"
"Mammy, I'm still young. It's your job to hold the baby. Don't push it to me."
Aunt An: “……?”
This child is not yours?
Although Ji Yunqing doesn't hold the child, she doesn't do nothing.
When she returned to the room, she began to draw a simple sketch of little Ruirui.
One picture a day. Now that there are no cameras, Ji Yunqing uses this method to record the daily life of his children.
Suddenly, Ji Yunqing looked serious and asked Hong Feng, who was grinding ink for her, "Is Ruirui already two months old?"
Hong Feng was the maid sent by King Zhao after Hong Xing was sent away. She came with the maid who served Xiao Ruirui.
She was not as talkative and cheerful as Hong Xing, and she liked to play and fight with the maids in the mansion, but she was honest and capable, and she knew a little martial arts.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard about Hongfeng's skills.
Xuancao felt that her master would be much safer in the future. She remembered that a rat snake had appeared in the mansion for no reason before. Anyone with good kung fu skills would definitely be able to catch the snake!
Xiuqiu kept sighing that people with good skills must have great strength and could sew the soles of shoes so quickly.
Hongdou's eyes sparkled with longing: "That's good. Next time, if the master is grounded, Hongfeng can go to the top of the wall and pull the bricks off. It took us a lot of effort to get the bricks off last time!"
Nanny An looked at this group of disappointing people and really wanted to say, the master has even given birth to a child, and you guys are expecting her to be confined to her house?
At this time, Hong Feng didn't know what the master's question meant, so she nodded obediently: "Yes, the master just turned two months old?"
The master gave birth to the baby, and she had just completed two months of confinement. Could it be that she had forgotten?
Ji Yunqing frowned. It was almost three months. After three months, it would be time for the hundred-day photoshoot.
She changed to another piece of white paper, drew a lot of shapes on it, and then asked the hydrangeas to be made!
At this time, there was a new movement outside. Ji Yunqing looked out the window and quickly opened the door of the room: "My Lord, why are you here?"
She ran out as fast as a butterfly: "My Lord, you haven't been here for a long time!"
Since the day she gave birth, King Zhao came to see her once and has not come again for the past two months.
Of course, the reward cannot be small, and Ji Yunqing happily cleared out a room to use as a warehouse.
