After my mother read my mind, my whole family rebelled
Chapter 3: A good sleep
After a night of heavy snow, the wintersweets in Chunhua Garden no longer have the same subtle fragrance as before. Instead, the snow has stimulated bursts of strange fragrance, which is refreshing and even overbearing.
A few birds were playing on the snow on the plum branches. The falling snowflakes were dancing in the sky with the breeze, making Chunhua Garden look like a fairyland at this moment.
Shen Yuyao woke up.
The first thing I saw when I woke up was the little fairy baby in the cradle. The little baby was squinting his eyes, looking very comfortable.
The charcoal fire in the room was burning brightly and it was warm.
"This golden charcoal is indeed better than the black charcoal from the past." Shen Yuyao thought to herself: "Now that we have the little fairy treasure, it's time to change the rules of the Ning Wang Mansion."
Zi Su saw Shen Yuyao wake up, and hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"Tomorrow is Princess Xiaoxian's third day of bathing. The head nanny at Jinxiu Garden has come to ask for Miss' instructions."
It's said to be a request for instructions, but I'm afraid it's just a notification.
In the past, Shen Yuyao didn't care much about the internal affairs of the palace. In name, she was the mistress of the palace, but in fact, Xu, who was supposed to assist in the affairs, took advantage of the prince's favor and unknowingly took charge of the affairs. Gradually, everyone in the palace realized that she, the main wife, was weak and easy to control.
"Let me breastfeed the little fairy first, then we can discuss it." Shen Yuyao felt sorry for the little fairy and was afraid that if the discussion took too long, she would starve.
[Hmm... As expected, I am the most important person in my mother's heart...]
[Wait, a three-day baptism? The original book records that the scumbag father, despite the recent death of his mother, still held a baptism ceremony for Xu's two children. The Duke was indignant and made a direct appeal to the court: the emperor indulged the prince in humiliating the meritorious officials, but the emperor took the opportunity to seize the military power. ]
[It was during this baby baptism ceremony that Xu won the favor of the Empress Dowager and was given a red robe and a jade dragon child by the Emperor. Xu was honored as the wife of Prince Ning because of her son.]
[I hate that there are too few immortal spirits! I can only drink more breast milk and accumulate spiritual power so that I can protect my mother in the future! ]
When Shen Yuyao heard this, the expression on her face suddenly changed.
She was pleased with Xiao Xianbao's love for her, but also worried about what Xiao Xianbao said. She felt even more guilty towards her parents.
Fortunately, Shen Yuyao survived childbirth, so the fate of everyone involved in this matter will change. But how exactly, I am afraid that even Xiao Xianbao does not know.
She and Xiao Xianbao are in the open, while the villain is in the dark, so she can only be cautious and move carefully at every step.
In the present Great Xia Dynasty, the country is strong and the people are prosperous. From the princes in the palace to the common people, every time a newborn is born, there is a custom of "washing the baby on the third day".
There were even court officials in this dynasty who, despite the ban on killing, still took the risk of disobeying the order and slaughtering sheep to entertain guests and friends, which was enough to prove the importance the entire Great Xia Dynasty attached to the "Three-Day Ceremony".
It can make Xu family rise to the top... then...
"Miss, the second wife of the Duke's Mansion is here." Zi Su lifted the curtain and came in.
"Please come in!" Shen Yuyao handed the baby who had just eaten and fallen asleep to Bai Zhi.
She slightly straightened her hair, adjusted her headband, and sat up straight.
At this time, a lady with elegant temperament and graceful demeanor walked in through the curtain. She was Shen Yuyao's second sister-in-law, Liang Ruolan.
"Yaoyao, I'm here to see you! I heard that you had a difficult delivery yesterday, and the whole mansion was worried. The master also said that he hadn't received any news from you, so it was inconvenient to visit privately. Mother let me see you."
Liang Ruolan and Shen Yuyao had been close friends since childhood, and now they were aunt and sister-in-law, so they were naturally closer than others. She called Shen Yuyao by her maiden name, with worry on her face.
As soon as she heard the word "Yaoyao", Shen Yuyao was about to cry. Afraid that she would be too worried, she forced herself to hold back her tears and smiled, "Lan'er, I'm fine." Then she asked, "How are your parents at home?"
"Dad and Mom are both fine. When I heard your secret message, I knew you were in trouble, so I came to check on you right away."
Zi Su handed over a soft stool, and Liang Ruolan thanked her and sat down.
"Look, early in the morning, without informing the prince, he brought Wang Ma directly to the mansion."
It turned out that on the day of Shen Yuyao's wedding, the Duke's wife had told her that if the mansion encountered any difficulties, she should send some old servants to serve. The nanny brought to the palace this time was the Duke's wife's maidservant, a real old man in the mansion, worthy of 100% trust.
"Yaoyao, is this the fairy princess?" Liang Ruolan sat down and saw a cradle beside the bed. A pink and tender newborn baby was lying in it. Its eyes were rolling around, but it was not crying.
[Ah... How come this second aunt-in-law is so beautiful?]
"Yes, my little fairy baby is very clever." Shen Yuyao only knew that her little fairy baby had woken up after hearing Xia Xiaoxian's inner voice. "I just fed her and she fell asleep. When you came, Lan'er, she woke up again."
"The baby, who is only two days old, is growing up so well, so round and plump, he looks like he is over a month old." Liang Ruolan said with a smile.
[Why is it that my bad father says I'm fat, and my pretty aunt also says I don't look like a newborn? Am I really that fat? ]
[The beautiful aunt looks kind, but it's a pity that she has a tragic fate... Alas...]
Xia Xiaoxian felt that her brain was no longer working and she fell asleep in an instant.
Beauty is doomed to fail? Could Ruolan be in danger? Could it be related to the Duke's Mansion?
"Lan'er, when you return home today, please tell your father that you must be careful with your words in the court these days!"
"Yaoyao, why do you say that?"
"Lan'er, I haven't figured it out yet. I'll tell you later. You must tell Daddy!"
Liang Ruolan responded yes.
Shen Yuyao's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she hurriedly called Zisu: "Zisu, go to the kitchen and get the daily menu that I have been using since I became pregnant."
Zi Su responded with a yes, bowed, took a few steps back, then turned around and walked out.
"Yaoyao, do you have any doubts?" Liang Ruolan looked puzzled.
"Lan'er, I looked at the prescription for my delivery yesterday. There was nothing wrong with the prescription. But among the remaining medicine residues, I found that the dosage of two of the medicines was wrong."
The people who harmed her knew that Shen Yuyao's mother's family had been practicing medicine for generations, and she herself also understood medical skills, so she did not dare to tamper with the prescription, but instead increased the dosage of safflower and Chuanxiong in her labor-inducing soup.
For ordinary women drinking this kind of labor-inducing soup, it will only shorten the labor process and increase the pain for the women.
But if a woman who is pregnant and has a huge fetus drinks it, it will not be a labor-inducing soup, but a death warrant!
"What a cruel heart!" Liang Ruolan was stunned. Her heart, which had just been melted by the cute little baby, was lifted up again.
"What a meticulous plan!" Shen Yuyao herself was also terrified. If she had not been rescued by the little fairy treasure and had not received the fairy treasure's telepathic hint to look for the drug residue, all the evidence would have disappeared without a trace, and no one would have known about it.
The two aunts and sisters-in-law were stunned on the spot.
"Princess, we got the things." It was not until Zi Su came in with a thick daily record that the two of them woke up as if from a dream.
Shen Yuyao looked through the records of her three meals a day since she became pregnant, and then compared them with Xu's diet records during pregnancy. The more she read, the more frightened she became.
At the beginning of the pregnancy, the two people's meals were almost identical. In the middle of the pregnancy, Shen Yuyao's diet had many more tonic ingredients than Xu's, who was pregnant with twins. These ingredients were all cooked into soup, and it was impossible to know without checking the daily records. In the late pregnancy, Shen Yuyao's meals had more than three times more desserts than Xu's!
"This Xu family is really going too far!" Liang Ruolan stood up angrily, "Bring all this evidence, I'll go to the prince to seek justice!"
"Second sister-in-law, please don't be anxious. We still need to think about this matter carefully."
"First, Xu gave birth to twins, and the prince was doting on her. If there was a fuss, Xu could just get one or two maids to take the blame and get away with it."
"Besides, it is still unknown whether the prince was involved..." Liang Ruolan looked at Shen Yuyao with confusion. Has the rift between her and Shen Yuyao reached such an extent?
"The reason I asked for help from my parents is because..." Shen Yuyao smiled bitterly and continued, "Tomorrow's three-day ceremony is the most difficult hurdle right now!"
