After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

Hearing this, Xiyu couldn't help but frowning, and her pretty eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if she was very worried.

She sighed and whispered, "The doctor said that I have a good appetite and eat too much on weekdays. The baby in my belly is growing too fast, so he asked me to control my diet."

When the Third Lady heard this, she immediately understood the reason. This is indeed the case when a woman is pregnant.

Thinking of the scene when her father's concubine gave birth, she couldn't help but remind him, "You really have to be careful. If the fetus is too big, you will suffer during the birth."

Knowing that the Third Lady was concerned about her, Xiyu felt a sense of warmth in her heart.

She responded obediently: "Yes, that's what the imperial physician said."

The three of them walked forward while talking. When they were almost at Wutongju, a tall figure appeared in front of them, followed by an old eunuch with a bent back, holding a bright lantern in his hand.

In the light of the lantern, I saw that it was the prince whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

Xiyu and Sanfujin quickly let go of the Crown Princess's arms and bowed to greet her, "Good luck to the Crown Prince."

"No need to be so polite, my two brothers and sisters."

The Crown Prince took a few steps forward and personally helped the Crown Princess up. His eyes paused for a moment when they swept over Xiyu, who had her head lowered, and he quickly retracted them.

Xiyu lowered her head, suppressing the corners of her mouth that were trying hard to turn up.

The Emperor arranged an old and ugly eunuch to serve the Crown Prince. I guess he was afraid that his past mistakes would repeat themselves, so he arranged for such a person to serve him.

She was so absorbed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice the prince's eyes once turned to her.

However, the Third Lady beside her noticed it keenly. Her eyebrows twitched twice and her willow-shaped eyebrows were slightly frowned.

"Since the Second Princess has been picked up, the two of us will go back first."

"Go back quickly, it's getting late, be careful on the road."

The Crown Princess instructed softly, watching the two leave, then raised her head slightly to look at the Crown Prince beside her, "Let's go back too."

The prince withdrew his gaze from the pretty figure and gave the princess a gentle smile, "Okay."

The two walked towards the courtyard. He stretched out his hand and held the Crown Princess's round waist. He tilted his head slightly and said, "I asked someone to prepare some soup for you to help you sleep. You should be able to sleep well tonight."

The Third Lady took Xiyu and quickly left the gate of Wutongju. After arriving at Hanhui Tower, she held her hand with a mysterious expression on her face.

"Sister-in-law, what do you want to say?"

The two of them stood in front of the door, whispering to each other without even pushing it open.

The young eunuch guarding the door had both hands on the door, and for a moment he didn't know whether to open the door or pretend not to know.

Thinking of the prince's eyes just now, Dong E Rongzhu thought carefully and felt that he might be dazzled by the dim light.

How can I possibly see any possessiveness in him...

But now she stopped the man again, it would be strange if she didn't say something.

She thought about it and her face suddenly turned red, "Um...is your grandfather back?"

Xi Yu looked at the sky and nodded affirmatively, "The Ministry of Revenue has little to do, so they should be back by now."

"The third brother hasn't come back yet, come back to Qingxia Hall with me first."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was held by the waist and walked towards the path next to her. Dong E Mingzhu was very strong, and although he was holding her, he was very careful for fear of hurting her.

Chun Shi and his companions hurriedly followed.

"Third sister-in-law, please walk slower. Why do you look so guilty?"

Dong E Rongzhu took her directly into the study of Qingxia Hall, then poured out the already cold tea from the teapot and drank it all in one gulp to suppress the feeling of heat in his heart.

She poured another cup and handed it to Xiyu, but halfway through, she pulled her hand back and put it on her own table.

"You can't drink this strong tea, so I won't pour it for you."

There was boldness in her movements, and Xiyu had no doubt that if she was wearing riding clothes instead of Manchu clothing at this moment, she would definitely sit with her legs apart like a man.

"Go make a pot of light... jasmine tea for the Fourth Lady." She nodded affirmatively, "I remember you like jasmine tea the most."

Xi Yu stopped the maid who was about to make tea and said, "No need to make tea, it's getting late. I'll just sit for a while and then go back. Sister-in-law, just say whatever you want to say. I know you can't keep things in your heart."

Upon hearing this, Sanfujin showed a rare look of embarrassment on her face.

"Oh, I...this one..." She opened her eyes and looked around at the little girls, then waved her hand to drive them out.

"Fujin..." Chunshi glanced at Xiyu, his eyes full of questions.

Xi Yu held the handkerchief in front of her lips and whispered teasingly, "Go ahead. We have the Third Lady. Although she is not particular about small matters, she is only concerned about herself. She is still very careful when taking care of me."

"Hey! What are you saying!"

The Third Lady pretended to hit her, but her palm just landed on the table and didn't even touch the air around Xiyu.

Xiyu moved closer and lowered her voice like a thief, "Third sister-in-law, if you have any private words to say, just say it. There's no need to be shy."

"Hey……"

Dong E Rongzhu let out a long sigh and moved closer. The two were very close and their voices were as low as those of mosquitoes.

"It's like this. Among all the sisters-in-law today, I am the only one who has not gotten pregnant after being married into the palace for several years. I wanted to ask you if you have any good prescription."

As she spoke, she moved closer, with a rare guilty look in her eyes, "Your grandfather was incapable before, but you were able to get pregnant even after what he did. There must be some good recipe. Show me~"

"Hahaha……"

Xiyu couldn't help laughing, her body leaned back slightly, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

"Third sister-in-law, I was wondering why you looked so guilty at the entrance of Hanhui Tower just now. It turns out you wanted to say something bad about my master."

The Third Lady quickly stood up and covered her mouth with her hand, "Oh, keep your voice down. Although your master has a handsome face, he looks so cold every day, which is too scary. It's normal for me to be afraid."

The way she looked around looked a little silly, which was very different from her usual smart and generous appearance.

Xiyu suppressed her laughter, wiped away the tears that flowed from the corners of her eyes, and said seriously:

"This prescription is different for each person. What works for me may not work for you. Stretch out your hand and I'll take your pulse."

Dong E Rongzhu obediently stretched out his hand, "You really know how to take a pulse. I thought you were comforting your sister-in-law last time."

"Comfort your sister-in-law? Then let me ask you, was it a boy or a girl?"

Xiyu raised an eyebrow at her, with a look of pride in her eyes.

"You know what, it's really a boy!"

Dong E Mingzhu held her tightly with his empty hand, and suddenly felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

"Oh, my dear sister, if you can solve my problem, you can take whatever you like from my dowry!"

This sounds very proud. Everyone knows that when the Third Lady got married, the dowry boxes were lined up from the palace gate all the way to the East Second House. They were filled with valuable things. Not a single box was just for show.

Xiyu pursed her lips and pushed her back, "You are so excited, the pulse of your heart and lungs is about to bounce my fingers off, how can I be accurate?"

Dong E Rongzhu immediately sat down obediently, her posture even more dignified than on her wedding day, but her mouth was not idle.

"It's not that I really want to have children, but everyone has them, and it would be embarrassing if I didn't."

"Besides, that bastard Third Brother has many concubines in his room. If I don't give birth to a child, what shall I do if this Third Brother can't be relied upon in the future..."

Xiyu listened to her with her eyes closed, but she did not stop taking her pulse.

Last time she didn't know how to take a pulse and relied on cheats to deceive the Grand Concubine, but since then, she has been secretly learning from Qiu Xu. Fortunately, as a ginseng, she is very talented and learns very quickly.

Dong E Rongzhu lived close to her and they had been together for quite a while. He was usually influenced by her spiritual energy, so even though he was not in good health before, he is now healthy.

Her pulse is steady and strong, very healthy, much better than most people's.

Instead, she had a strong liver fire, and... She couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and chuckle softly.
