After crossing, I was forced to hold on to my thighs and build a kingdom

Jin Chu waited patiently for Huanyan to have a brief conversation with Chu and Song, then he couldn't wait to interrupt.

"Now you and your servant have gotten to know each other. Mother Chu, let's continue with the topic we were discussing. My sister-in-law has severe morning sickness. How should we treat her?"

Mother Chu took a step forward, got close to Huanyan to see her expression, and asked some detailed questions.

Finally, she thought for a moment, took a few steps back, and turned her head to discuss in a low voice with Aunt Song.

After a moment, Mother Chu turned back and bowed to Jinchu and Huanyan, "I just discussed with Aunt Song and decided to borrow the small kitchen and some ingredients from the Crown Prince's Consort so that I can try to cook some food for you."

"Yucheng, take Aunt Song to the small kitchen. If she needs any ingredients, ask her to write them down for you, and then you can go to the main kitchen to get them. If they are not available in the mansion, send someone out to buy them. Please keep the relevant expenses in my personal account."

As soon as Jinchu gave the order, Yucheng responded and took Aunt Song to the small kitchen to work.

Mother Chu said to Huanyan with concern, "If you are hungry, you can pick out a few light snacks to fill your stomach. When Aunt Song's meal is ready later, you won't have to suffer any more."

Huanyan waved her hands weakly, "No need for that. I'm feeling bloated and my chest is sore. I feel like vomiting when I smell anything strange, but I can't vomit anything. I really have no appetite, so let's skip it for now!"

"Then don't use it for now."

Mother Chu looked at Huan Yan, whose eyes were half-closed and weak, and said in a gentle and soothing voice, "The Crown Princess and Madam are worried. Most women experience morning sickness after pregnancy, the difference is just a matter of severity. Generally, it will gradually recover after three months, and by then, Madam will not suffer as much as she did today."

Seeing Jinchu turn to look at her, Mother Chu added, "There's also a folk saying that severe morning sickness indicates a healthy fetus. Although the mother will be suffering during this period, the pregnancy will be more stable."

After hearing this, Jin Chu and Huan Yan looked at each other, with some joy in their eyes and the sadness on their faces dissipated a lot.

"So, although my sister-in-law's morning sickness is severe, it's like a seedling in spring, weathered by wind and rain, showing even more vigor and vitality. This is precisely a sign that the fetus in her womb is full of vitality. Is that right?"

"The Crown Prince's Consort is intelligent, just as you said."

Mother Chu subtly complimented Jinchu, then smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry, madam. As the saying goes, a mother is strong. As long as the baby grows healthily in your womb, even if I have to endure some hardships, I'm sure you'll be at peace with it."

"Mother Chu is absolutely right."

Although Huanyan's face was still pale, she was already smiling. She reached out and stroked her still flat belly, her eyes full of love. "As long as this little thing grows safely and healthily, I will be happy even if I vomit violently."

"Although morning sickness is painful, my lady, there's no need to be too pessimistic. Aunt Song and I have come here on the orders of the princess to take care of and regulate your body. We want to make your pregnancy less difficult, to ensure a smooth and worry-free pregnancy, and to give birth to a healthy baby safely."

Huanyan nodded and smiled: "If that's the case, I will definitely thank you both handsomely."

As soon as she finished saying this, she frowned again, put her hands on her chest, and retched again.

Mother Chu quickly brought the spittoon over and turned back to order Qingguo, "Go and cut two slices of ginger for Madam first."

Qingguo glanced at Jinchu, as if waiting for her instructions.

Jin Chu nodded and said to Qingguo and Qingzhi, "From now on, Madam Chu will take care of your wife personally, and Aunt Song will be in charge of her meals. They were both personally selected by the princess, so their character is trustworthy. In the future, you will just follow her instructions."

After a while, Qingguo, who had left, came back with a small plate with a few thinly sliced ​​ginger slices on it.

Mother Chu personally took the plate of ginger slices and lovingly explained to Jinchu and Huanyan, "This is pungent and warm, good at dispersing and warming the stomach to stop vomiting. Madam, hold it in your mouth and place it on the roof of your mouth. It will effectively relieve dry retching."

Huanyan obediently took a piece and put it on her upper palate as Mother Chu instructed.

A unique spicy taste overflowed from it and slowly spread along her throat, making her unable to help but swallow it along with the large amount of saliva secreted.

The heat went all the way down to the stomach, as if a warm patch was applied to the stomach, which immediately relieved the originally sore and swollen stomach.

Huanyan's face showed surprise, and she couldn't help but praise: "Mom is really amazing!"

Mother Chu smiled modestly: "My lady, you are too kind. These are just years of experience, not worth mentioning."

Jin Chu carefully observed Huanyan's expression, and when she saw her smile, she felt a little relieved. She looked at the respectful and peaceful Chu calmly, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.

As they were talking, Yucheng came in with a tray, and the faint aroma of rice wafted in with it.

Huanyan subconsciously frowned and covered her mouth again, but found that this time she was not as uncomfortable as she had imagined.

Aunt Song followed behind and bowed to Jinchu and Huanyan.

She pointed at the meals that Yucheng had brought out one by one and said, "I hurriedly prepared these soups and rice for you. Could you please see if there's anything you like?"

Huanyan glanced at the soup and rice.

There was a bowl of carrot, corn and pork ribs soup, a bowl of soft and sticky rice and yam porridge, a small bowl of shrimp and egg custard, and two small plates of pickled cucumbers that looked very refreshing, with two small pastries on the side.

It looks pleasing to the eye, but I don’t know if I can eat it.

Huanyan looked at Jinchu, feeling a little timid. She had vomited so much this morning that when she saw the food, she couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

Jin Chu patted her hands, his eyes full of encouragement: "Sister-in-law, relax and give it a try. If these don't work, we can ask Aunt Song to do something else. With these two here today, I'm sure you'll have a meal."

"What the Crown Princess said makes sense. Madam, don't be nervous. Morning sickness is already torturous. If you are not used to these, I have other things you can try. Relax, it's fine."

Aunt Song had a smile on her face, her eyes and brows were gentle, and she had a baby face, so when she smiled she looked very harmless.

After Huanyan received comfort from Jinchu and her, the tension and anxiety in her heart eased a lot.

She nodded, put on her shoes with Qingzhi's help, got out of bed, sat at the table, and picked up the chopsticks.

Everyone's eyes were focused on her, nervously waiting for her response.

Especially the two newcomers, Chu and Song, although they had smiles on their faces, they were even more nervous in their hearts.

As the saying goes, the beginning is always the hardest. This was the first day the two of them had come to serve their new master. If the meal wasn't to their liking, the Crown Prince's Consort would probably question their abilities!

Under everyone's expectation, Huanyan took two deep breaths secretly, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of carrot, and put it to her mouth.

Fortunately, at least the smell is not bad.

She took a small bite carefully, and a sweet taste with the aroma of meat spread in her mouth. It was soft and delicious, and it left a lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth. Instead of feeling nauseous, it aroused her appetite that had been empty for a long time.

Huanyan's eyes lit up, and she put all the remaining carrots into her mouth, squinted her eyes slightly, and started chewing them with big mouthfuls.

Chu and Song visibly relaxed and were finally able to eat.

The green branches and green fruits also looked at Huanyan with joy and smiled. Jinchu pointed at the remaining food and suggested: "Sister-in-law, try some other food."

Huanyan then picked up the spoon to taste the bowl of yam porridge. The faint fragrance, although not as strong as carrot, did not cause her to gag.

She changed the spoon and ate the bowl of egg custard again. It was fresh, fragrant, soft and tender, and very delicious. She ate five or six spoonfuls in a row.

"These are all very good. Aunt Song's cooking skills are very good. I like them very much." Huanyan praised Aunt Song while eating.

"As long as my lady likes it, I will do my best to slowly restore your slim body."

Aunt Song, feeling reassured, smiled confidently.

"It's my mother's wisdom that sent such a good person to my sister-in-law. Thanks to Mother Chu and Aunt Song, my sister-in-law was able to have a meal today. Yucheng, go open my box and take out ten taels of silver for the two mothers."

Chu and Song were delighted and quickly knelt down to thank for the reward.

Jin Chu personally helped the two of them up, and his tone was rare and serious.

"From now on, my sister-in-law's Man Cui Xuan will be handed over to you two in charge. If you need anything, just ask. If you don't have it, I will ask the maids in my yard to go out and buy it. Don't worry about the money. As long as you can take good care of my sister-in-law's health, I will definitely not treat you two unfairly in the future."

This is the promise made by the Crown Princess to them, and it means much more than simply giving them silver!

If they can take good care of Madam Ye's baby this time, then as long as the Crown Prince's wife is around, they will have no worries in the Dingbei Palace in the future!

The two looked at each other and showed the most comfortable smile since they came here today.
