Chapter 342
Ji Yunqing took Ruirui to play in the mansion for three days when he suddenly heard a piece of good news.
While Concubine He was taking care of the prince, she suddenly felt unwell. The imperial physician who stayed in the front yard to take care of her felt her pulse and finally came to a conclusion.
Concubine He is pregnant!
This news suddenly made Concubine He's yard lively.
The rewards from the prince and princess were continuously moved to Concubine He's courtyard.
The prince was seriously injured, and the atmosphere in the mansion was originally depressing. But now, seeing that the prince's injuries were gradually getting better, and Concubine He bringing good news, the people in the mansion instantly became happy.
Upon hearing the news, Ji Yunqing tightened his grip on Xiaocong's hand.
Soon she calmed down: "Rui Rui, let's not go out to play today, let's just eat tofu with scallions!"
Ruirui's eyes were confused. "What's the connection between not going out to play and eating tofu with scallions?"
"Of course!"
Looking at the energetic child, Ji Yunqing chuckled: "Today, we are counting on you to grind the tofu."
The millstone has been in the yard for a long time, but it has never been used. Now is a good time to take it out and let Ruirui raise his arm and push it hard.
After pushing it seriously for two rounds, Ruirui couldn't push it anymore.
He shouted angrily: "Mom, this is not a job for a child!"
The maids also covered their mouths and chuckled. Upon hearing this, they stepped forward to take it and each pushed it a few times.
After a lot of trouble, the mother and son finally had fresh soy milk, tofu pudding, tofu, and also harvested various soy products such as bean skin and yuba.
Holding the small bowl, Ruirui sighed seriously: "Mom, it's too difficult to eat tofu, let's eat something else!"
Ji Yunqing told him: "It's not easy to eat tofu, and it's not easy to grow vegetables either!"
She pointed to the various vegetables planted in the yard and said: "Look, if we want to eat these vegetables, we need to grow them for several months, and we need to water them, catch insects and weed them. No step can be missed."
That’s indeed true!
Ruirui nodded, her eyes lit up: "Then we can eat meat!" There's no need to grow meat, right?
"Succulents don't need to be planted, but they do need to be cared for."
Ji Yunqing reached out his hand and rubbed the little guy's face: "Just like I raised you, whether it was chicken, duck, fish, pork, or mutton, you had to eat every day to grow up"
Rui Rui was so surprised that she asked, "Then, do they need to eat too?"
"Of course, but I won't eat as well as you, or I'll go bankrupt."
Ji Yunqing thought for a moment and said, "Wait, I will find a way to let you see with your own eyes how these poultry are raised."
"it is good"
Ruirui agreed immediately. The child was looking forward to everything.
He thought about it seriously again: "Mom, is there anything that can fill me up without so much trouble?"
Ji Yunqing answered simply: "No"
"If there were, would we still have to work so hard to grow vegetables and raise poultry and livestock?"
Ruirui held up her chin, looked at the various vegetables in the yard, and began to think seriously.
Ji Yunqing waited until the next day when the news of Concubine He's pregnancy came out, and then he carefully selected and packed everything for himself.
She looked at herself in the bronze mirror and saw that she was beautiful and lovely. She made sure that everyone who saw her would be dazzled before she went out.
Before leaving, thinking about the last time the princess loved to pull her wrist, Ji Yunqing specially picked out a jade bracelet and put it on.
Ruirui was playing on the swing in the yard. When she saw her come out, she immediately ran over, held her little face in her hands, and praised her in an admiring baby voice, "Mommy, you look so beautiful today!"
"is it?"
Ji Yunqing took the opportunity to turn around beautifully: "Rui Rui's mother is so beautiful!"
"Yes, Ruirui's mother is the most beautiful!"
The mother and son praised each other a lot, which made the maids beside them laugh.
Nanny An asked, "Master, are you going to visit the prince?"
She felt that although the master's outfit was beautiful, wasn't it a little too much for visiting the prince?
"Master, why don't you change into some plainer clothes and put on some light makeup." It would be best if you look a little haggard, so that it seems that the master is worried about the prince.
Ji Yunqing shook his head: "The prince has someone to serve him, I plan to go to the main courtyard to see the princess."
She needed to see how the princess was doing. She hadn't been there for several days, so she had to catch up.
As for the prince, when she decided to pursue the princess, the prince was already a thing of the past.
Nanny An was caught off guard by this. She opened her old cherry lips slightly and couldn't close them for a long time: "Ah? Go to see the princess?"
Master, if she remembered correctly, the person injured in the mansion should be the prince, right?
"I'm not wrong, don't be surprised, Nanny An. I'm just going to see the princess, not to kill anyone. There's no need to make a fuss."
Ji Yunqing did not forget to remind Ruirui: "Today, your mother is not here, so you should play in the yard. I will take you out when I have time in two days."
Now that there is suddenly a pregnant woman in the mansion, there is bound to be chaos for a while. She has to observe the situation first and then find a place away from the two of them to take care of the child.
Ruirui was very sensible: "Okay, I won't go out"
As he was speaking, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the yard.
Ji Yunqing straightened up and looked towards the gate of the courtyard.
"Concubine Ji, why are you standing here?"
Eunuch Shi smiled and said attentively: "Concubine Ji, the prince has asked you to come over."
This is... an unlucky year!
Ji Yunqing sighed inwardly, if he had known she would stop talking nonsense, he would have gone out now and would not have been crowded at the door.
But then I thought, this man is alive, he has legs, and he can be found no matter where he is.
Ji Yunqing asked: "Eunuch Shi, what did the prince want me to do? Is the prince's injury healed now?"
Eunuch Shi replied: "The prince's injury has not healed yet, Concubine Ji, please stop dawdling and leave quickly. The prince is urging you to leave."
Just like that, Ji Yunqing had to temporarily change his original plan and stand in front of King Zhao's bed.
Comfort the patients.
"My Lord, are you feeling better?"
King Zhao opened his eyes with great effort: "I am not well yet, can't you see?"
He looked up and down at Ji Yunqing, who was dressed brilliantly, and his expression improved a lot: "It seems that you still remember to come and visit me."
Women dress up to please themselves, and Ji Shi is not that stupid. She even knows how to dress in a way that is pleasing to the eye.
Satisfied with what he saw, King Zhao signaled her, "Go pour me some water. You who came to serve me don't have any sense at all!"
Ji Yunqing brought him some water without saying a word and carefully fed him the water.
After drinking the water, Ji Yunqing began to ask: "My Lord, is there no one to take care of you today?"
She looked around to make sure she was alone in the room.
Didn’t we agree that we would do it one person per day?
Who is being lazy?
King Zhao was lying on the bed: "Can anyone come over?"
Ji Yunqing couldn't believe it: "Didn't the princess arrange for one person to come every day?"
It seems like this is the first day that she is on duty alone?
King Zhao glanced at her and said, "During my recovery period, I should not see too many outsiders."
Ji Yunqing swallowed the words, Your Majesty, I am an outsider too!
Aren’t there maids taking care of you in the main courtyard?
