Xu Minglan asked, "Speak, why did you come here today? In the past, you didn't have such a personality. You came here in a hurry without even saying hello. It must be for some urgent matter. Did you hear about my sister? "
Xu Mingwei knew that she was talking about Xu Mingmo, so she shook her head and said, "It's not for her, it's just that I suddenly remember that you're old now, so I wanted to take a look at how you're doing. When did your stomach doctor say it would be born? "
Xu Minglan obviously did not believe her, but hearing her ask about the child, her face revealed a gentle and motherly smile, and said: "It's almost time, just one or two months."
The Old Lai family knew about her month. Looking at Xu Minglan's stomach, they felt a burst of fear, and saw that it did not seem to be eight months old, and even said it was about to give birth, they couldn't help but to frown. In the past, he had heard that there was someone with a strange appearance, but people like the five girls were rarely seen.
Xu Mingwei had the same thought and could not help but ask, "Elder sister's stomach is so big that it's scary. Have you ever asked a doctor?"
She didn't dare to directly say that the child would be too big for her to bear, so she didn't dare to say such words in advance. At this critical juncture, she couldn't speak carelessly.
Xu Minglan laughed, "The doctors that come every few days to request your safety vein say that your appetite is extremely good, that you will definitely be a strong young man in the future. Don't be frightened by this belly, half of it is water, and there are not many kilograms of meat on top of the child, just rest assured. All women will have to go through this. When you have children in the future, you will probably be happier than I am. "
Hearing her say that, Xu Mingwei could not say anymore. He then asked her about her daily diet and how she had to eat a catty of meat every day. The other chickens and ducks couldn't help but frown as they advised, "I've often heard that pork is fatter than chickens and ducks, and it's not good to lose weight after giving birth. It would be better if Fifth Sister had more chicken, duck, fish, or beef and mutton. They would have less fat, and after finishing the milk, the child would be able to recover a little earlier. "
This sentence had finally struck right at Xu Minglan's heart. Ever since she was pregnant, she was most afraid of the word fat, but she couldn't control her own mouth. She could only crave for meat; Hearing Xu Mingwei's words, she could not help but ask, "Did you really say that? "Then from today onwards, we shall just eat beef and lamb."
Seeing that she was willing to listen to his advice, Xu Mingwei relaxed a little and took the opportunity to speak, "There is one more thing that you need big sister to do. In the evening of the next day, whenever there's free, you can walk into the garden for a while. When your muscles and bones relax, it will be more enjoyable to have children. "
Xu Minglan laughed, "Look at you, a person who isn't pregnant yet, seems like you know more than me."
Seeing that she was willing to listen, Xu Mingwei did not try to argue anymore and only laughed. Xu Minglan sighed again, and said, "Look at my stomach, I carry it fast, and my child doesn't hurt his mother, either. Now that they had seen the Second Sister, they knew that this was a great fortune. There were people in this world who were so hopeful that even their eyes would go blind from tears. If only I could get lucky at this moment, I would split half of it with her. "
Xu Mingwei heard her suddenly wail, and was unhappy in her heart. She pretended to be angry and said, "Sister Lan, quickly stop them, this way, everyone has their own fate."
Only then did Xu Minglan realize that she said the wrong thing. To say something like that at the mouth of a wound that was about to burst was indeed unlucky, and she immediately smacked her lips, "Look at me! Lifting her head, she believed that the woman had misheard her words, but she could not catch what she had said. "
The two sisters stopped talking about Xu Mingmo's bad intentions. When they finally sat down, Xu Minglan wanted to keep them at home for lunch. However, Xu Mingwei said that she had to return home early to inform his mother. Coincidentally, Fu Heng came to look for her at this time, so Xu Minglan couldn't bear to keep her, so he could only send them to the main entrance with her belly up.
In the afternoon, the Pei household kitchen was still cooking. Xi Yun wanted to change the dishes, but she didn't want a piece of pork, she only ordered some chicken, duck, fish and meat. Later on only beef and lamb, no more pork. The kitchen ladies took the hint and turned around with a smile. This meaty woman actually had a day where she disliked pork.
With a cold face, Xi Chun took the opportunity to scoop a spoonful of lard and pour into the boiled chicken soup. At a time, a woman came to bring food and boxes out. Looking at the expressionless Xi Chun, she cursed in her heart.
Furthermore, when Xu Mingwei and her wife came out of the Pei household, the carriage they were riding was not the way home. Xu Mingwei asked in shock, "Which house are we going to?"
Fu Heng laughed, "Didn't I tell you to go to the southwest to eat spicy food? I didn't know when it would be when Yun Ping would return, so I took advantage of being out today to disappoint my promise."
Xu Mingwei regretted it, "If I had known earlier that you would bring a restaurant, I would have also changed. This way of coming in and out would be too eye-catching."
Fu Heng shook his head, "It's fine, there's a back door at that place, for female customers to go in and out, you and I will go in from that place, and then we'll take a private room."
After Xu Mingwei heard this, she put down her heart, and suddenly thought of something, "I forgot to greet my family, I'm afraid they have prepared our meal."
Fu Heng laughed, "With the Jade Peach, what is there to eat?"
Xu Mingwei was amused by him and thought that it was indeed not so. She could count the number of times she had been out at a restaurant with one hand since she had transmigrated, so she was a little excited at the moment.
After half an incense of time, the carriage finally stopped at the back of an alley. Fu Heng got off the carriage first, and knocked on the door to greet the person inside, and then heard the creaking sound of the wooden door. The carriage then started to move, and after passing through the mansion's back door and walking for a short distance, he finally heard Fu Heng say, "Alright, let's leave here."
Xu Mingwei bent her body and burrowed out of the room. Only then did she realize that they were standing in front of a bamboo board with the three words "Purple Bamboo Pavilion" written on it, and she couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and look at Fu Heng, saying, "If you didn't say that this place is a restaurant, I would have said that we entered a certain family's courtyard."
Fu Heng said, "This piece was originally prepared for the purpose of finding a quiet guest, it's normal for it to be elegant. I've already discussed the list with someone in the hall, let's go up now. "
The Old Lai family and Tie Tou went to claim their food from the front of the hall, so they did not follow them up. The two of them went to the second floor's private room and waited for a while. Unexpectedly, this restaurant's dishes were served extremely quickly, and Fu Heng's dishes were served one after another.
Xu Mingwei was barely able to discern that there were a few dishes that looked like Sichuan Cuisine, such as a chicken with saliva, fragrant fish and fresh shellfish, as well as a piece of meat stewed with Chen pei.
Seeing that she did not eat the chopsticks for a long time, Fu Heng thought that she was afraid that the food would be spicy, so he smiled and picked up a piece of chicken from the bowl and placed it into her bowl, and said, "This is not numb at all, it's spicy.
Normally, he wouldn't be this meticulous. As expected, when he came out of his house, there was always a difference. Xu Mingwei thought for a bit, but then said: "You don't have to worry about me, I'll take care of it myself."
When Fu Heng heard her say that, he was still worried. He secretly looked at her eat the piece of chicken and saw that she did not even have a cough, it was obvious that she could endure it.
The two of them ate and had ordered a total of ten dishes, yet they were both able to eat pretty much the same. Fu Heng looked and laughed, "Originally, I was afraid that it would not be easy to eat next time, and that the dishes in this house would only taste better if they were fresh, hence I ordered all the dishes first.
Xu Mingwei said, "Eating at home is not difficult, I only bought all the seasonings, I think Nanny Xu can also make them."
Fu Heng thought that this was also an idea, so he decided to make sure that all the errands needed for the servants were sold. Turning his head to look at Nanny Xu, he actually managed to imitate eighty to ninety percent of what he said. For a long time, they often ate spicy food in their rooms, bringing a whole courtyard of Little girl! Little girl s with them that gradually changed their tastes.
In September, the entire yard of osmanthus orange yellow gold, floating everywhere is pleasant sweet fragrance. Nanny Xu brought people to pick a few days' worth of osmanthus flowers and stained them with sugar. Even Fu Heng, who did not like to eat sweet food, was gradually addicted to his own family's brewing pill, the osmanthus flower soup. Even after eating for a few days, he refused to change to anything else. Since it was like this, he could only trouble the Nanny Xu. He had to make a sweet and salty supper so that he could get rid of the two masters.
Xu Mingwei calculated the time. By the middle of the night, there should be news about Xu Mingmei. She had been looking forward to it so much that on the fifteenth of the ninth month, there would indeed be people from the Duke of Qin's household who came to congratulate him. They were incredibly happy. The palace also received the news at the very first moment and sent out an imperial edict, bestowing the title of Princess Pingping.
If she did not hear news of Xu Mingmei, then it would mean that she and her daughter were at peace. Xu Mingwei, who had been worried ever since the end of August, had finally let go of half of her worries.
She was so busy that she did not even notice when Fu Heng left his house. When she returned, she brought her a safety string and said she got it from the Duke of Qin's Palace. There was a custom in Tianqi that women who could give birth to babies safely were considered fortunate. Therefore, after her hands of the string, wearing can ensure a smooth birth. Xu Mingwei's face became hot after receiving the string, and he forgot to ask Fu Heng why he suddenly went to the Duke of Qin's Palace.
News of the Duke of Qin's daughter quickly spread throughout the capital. Many people sighed and sighed, while many others secretly rejoiced. But from the message that Xu Mingmei had sent, the Duke of Qin really liked the little peace.
