Chapter 156 Pregnancy
Zhao Shen settled Brother Yun, returned to the main courtyard, and as soon as he entered the hall, he saw Xiang Yuan frowned, sitting solemnly on the marble armchair.Although the movement of him coming in was not big, but every time Chuongzi was able to notice it quickly, and now, there was something difficult that troubled him, he came in and had a quick cup of tea, but Chuckie hadn't recovered yet.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Shen went out again, and told the little girl waiting at the door, "Go to the kitchen and ask for a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup, remember to chill it before serving."
The little girl agreed bluntly, turned around and walked out briskly, and walked out of the courtyard gate after a while.Zhao Shen watched, smiled and shook his head.
Congzi is either lustful, or one of the maids who serve has a lot of color and ideas, but he doesn't need to do anything if he is spotted, so Congzi finds someone to send out by hair.If they just have ideas, they are just transferred to the outer courtyard and other places. If they are not only big-hearted but also brave, they will either be sent to Zhuangzi, or they will be matched with a boy.After doing this several times, it really frightened the servants.Now the courtyard is quiet and quiet, and the maids are trying their best to strive for the top, but it is just a few extra coins for the monthly case, but they dare not have any other thoughts.Not only the elders serving in the yard understand that when they meet a new little girl who comes in, they will take the initiative to tell and beat them, lest the little girl break the taboo with arrogance and implicate the servants.
The lotus seed and white fungus soup was brought over quickly, it was not only iced, but there were also some shards of crushed ice in it, Zhao Shen was very satisfied when he saw it.The little girl was invited to ask, and she knew that the one who was in charge of the spoon this time was Qi's new apprentice.Qi Zhangshao was pregnant again, the first three months had not yet passed, it was the time when the reaction was severe, and he couldn't get into the kitchen early, so he handed over the matter at hand to his subordinates.But seeing that her little apprentice can make tremella and lotus seed soup today, and even delivered it to him, one knows that the new apprentice Qi Zhangshao has a pretty good wrist.
Zhao Shen just thought about it and put it behind his head, carrying the bowl into the hall.In midsummer, the heat rises, and the weather gets hotter day by day.Seeing that Congzi is in a bad mood and the weather is very hot, using a bowl of soup to cool down and relieve the heat will surely relieve the mood.
This time, Zhao Shen didn't need to remind him, as soon as he came in, Xiang Yuan would have seen him.
"What's on the side?"
Seeing that he was back to his senses, Zhao Shen smiled and handed the bowl to Xiang Yuan, saying: "Seeing that you are not in a good mood, I asked the kitchen to make a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup. I iced it specially and added crushed ice in it." , the best solution to the summer heat.”
"Why only one bowl?" Xiang Yuan took it, saw that Zhao Shen had nothing else in hand, asked a question, picked up a spoon, scooped up a small spoon and handed it to Zhao Shen's mouth.
"Ah, open your mouth, my wife will eat."
Zhao Shen shook his head, took Xiang Yuan's hand and brought the spoon to his mouth again, saying: "You eat, I dare not eat such ice now."
Xiang Yuan swallowed it in one gulp, and asked doubtfully, "Why, what's wrong with you? Do you want to ask the doctor to come and have a look?"
A blush appeared on Zhao Shen's face, with a little embarrassment in his eyes, he said: "Look at it, I'm not sure if I have it again, I can ask the doctor to come to the house, so I can feel at ease."
Xiang Yuan got a mouthful of lotus seed soup stuck in his throat, and immediately coughed, and it took him half a cup of tea to barely stop his cough.Zhao Shen was angry and funny, and pretended to complain: "How surprised is the son that he coughed like this? Could it be that my body is such an earth-shattering event?"
"Cough, cough, it's not good to put it outside, but in our house, it is definitely earth-shattering!" Xiang Yuan stopped eating lotus seed soup, stood up slowly, and carefully pulled Zhao Shen into a chair and sat down.
"It's actually there again! I thought there were only two boys, Zhuangzhuang and Zhuzhuo, in this life."
Zhao Shen also laughed, and said inaudibly: "Yeah, I thought I would never have a biological child by my side in this life."
Xiang Yuan raised his voice to ask the girl waiting outside to invite the doctor, then squatted down in front of Zhao Shen, put his ear lightly on his daughter-in-law's belly, remained motionless for a long while, and then murmured: "I have it again, I don't know what it is." The boy is still a girl, or a brother."
"It's only been less than two months, and I know I can't hear anything, but I still post it here." Zhao Shen couldn't help but reach out and touch Xiang Yuan's head, his heart softened.
Xiang Yuan stood up after posting for a while, and said: "Although I know I can't feel anything, but when I think that my daughter-in-law is pregnant again after nearly three years, I can't help but want to post it."
Zhao Shen listened to Xiang Yuan's words several times in a row and actually had it again, he really couldn't laugh or cry.He also said that he was not surprised, and just said in such an unconscious tone, Zhao Shen guessed that Congzi was probably still confused at the moment, and hadn't settled down yet.
Because Xiang Yuan has always insisted on taking the Ping'an pulse every month, even in the capital, this habit has not been abandoned, so the doctor was quickly invited.As soon as he entered the door, seeing the nervous look of the couple, he knew that the guess in his heart might have come true.Sure enough, after taking a pulse, Zhao Shen did have a body, but it will be about a month, and the month is still very shallow.
"The last time I took the pulse, I felt that Zhengjun's pulse seemed to be pregnant, but at that time the number of days was really short, and I couldn't be sure. I was thinking of confirming it this month. I don't want Zhengjun to be sure."
The invited doctor was surnamed Li, aged 35 or [-], who could be regarded as young and promising in the doctor's profession.
"Doctor Li has always been careful, so it's not easy to talk about things that are uncertain. This time, my wife will have to trouble Dr. Li a lot."
Naturally, Xiang Yuan knew that doctors like to be sure, so he yelled out things that were not sure about his taboos.Otherwise, the misunderstanding is trivial, and if any adverse consequences are caused, it will not only be bad for the master, but also a blow to the doctor's reputation.
Dr. Li hurriedly said that he didn't dare to take it seriously, and ordered many taboos and places that need to be tabooed. After finishing talking, he wrote two large pages for Xiang Yuan for reference.Seeing that Xiang Yuan was satisfied, he also felt relieved.It wasn't long before he was invited to be the doctor of the Xiang family's pulse, and he was afraid that he would be dissatisfied with what he did, so he would lose this job that his colleagues in the medical clinic would envy.
In their profession as a doctor, they naturally often go to high-ranking families, and living at the foot of the emperor, they have their own ability to recognize people.The Master Xiang in front of him is already a third-rank Beijing official at a young age, so he may not have much luck in the future.Moreover, Mr. Xiang is not only a great official, but also kind and generous. He is really a rare good boss.
After confirming the pregnancy, Xiang Yuan was in a happy mood, and also rewarded Dr. Li with ten taels of silver, which was not included in the monthly money.Dr. Li won the silver reward and didn't have to go back to the medical clinic to hand in his work, so he was naturally very happy, and they didn't need to say much, and he would be more careful when he came back to ask for pulse in the future.
"This confirmation reminds me of the joke Zhuo Zhuo said a few days ago. I don't want to be predicted by him. It really is a baby."
When Xiang Yuan said this, Zhao Shen also couldn't help laughing when he thought of Zhuozhuo yelling that he must have a baby, so he didn't feel sorry for him as a big baby.
"I don't know what will happen to us when we know that Daddy really has a baby."
This is Xiang Yuan, a bad father who longs to see his son cry!
Zhao Shen glared at him, and said: "Don't tell Zhuo Zhuo first. He is now the most favored, and he is the youngest in the family. Most of the pets are divided, and they will definitely not follow. This matter must be told to him slowly."
Speaking of this, Xiang Yuan was also quite helpless.Thinking about Zhuang Zhuang, Zhuang Zhuang didn’t feel unhappy after having Zhuo Zhuo. On the contrary, Zhuang Zhuang seemed very happy to have a younger brother.But when it came to Zhuo Zhuo, the little guy didn't know what was going on in his head, and he couldn't wait to see more younger brothers and sisters come out.A few times ago Xiang Yuan joked with him about asking his father to add another brother to him, but the little guy shook his head like a rattle and firmly disagreed.And because Xiang Yuan lied to him that the little brother sneaked into Zhao Shen's belly to stay in the dead of night, so in order to prevent the little brother from getting into the belly of his father, he didn't sleep at night. Zhao Shen put his arm on his stomach to block it.That narrow-minded look made Xiang Yuan dumbfounded.
The couple chatted for a while, and Zhao Shen asked Xiang Yuan what troubled him just now.Xiang Yuan sighed, didn't say anything, just asked: "Daughter-in-law, tell me, if you know that there is one thing that will endanger your family, or even your life, but this thing is still just a symptom. , did not reveal its harmfulness at all, if it were you, what would the daughter-in-law choose to do?"
Zhao Shen intuitively felt that what Xiang Yuan said was probably related to Brother Yun.It can be seen that even though Congzi was very anxious, he still didn't choose to explain it clearly to him, so he knew that he shouldn't know about it.Lowering his head, thinking carefully about Shaoqing, Zhao Shen raised his head, and said with a firm tone, "If I know that this matter is extremely harmful, I will choose to kill him even if he is just a budding one!"
Xiang Yuan was silent for a moment, and then said: "What if it involves human life?"
Zhao Shen's heart trembled, and he quickly steadied himself, staring at Xiang Yuan, his tone became more firm: "If this matter will endanger the lives of my family, I will not care about the lives of strangers compared to the safety of you and your children."
Xiang Yuan was only stunned for a moment, then he came back to his senses, smiled, and said: "My daughter-in-law doesn't need to be so nervous, it's just my imagination." He led the man to the inner room, put Zhao Shen next to the bed, and continued: "Going out for a long walk today, I don't know if I didn't know it before. Now that I know I'm pregnant, I should rest more. I still have some things to deal with, so I'll go to the study first. If I haven't come back by dinner , so you don’t have to wait, just bring Zhu Zhuo to eat.”
Zhao Shen didn't know that Xiang Yuan was just an excuse, he must go out to deal with Brother Yun's affairs.But since Congzi didn't intend to let him know, he pretended not to know.So he nodded and said: "I know my own body. If you have something to do, go quickly, try to finish it as soon as possible, and come back for dinner and use it together."
Xiang Yuan did not lie, he did come to the study, but it was not to deal with political affairs.Most of the family's study rooms are equipped with hidden compartments to store some confidential and important documents.When he first bought this house, Xiang Yuan carefully inspected everything inside and out, especially the study room.I don't know how many secrets the former head of the family had. In this large study, there are more than one hidden compartments for storing confidential and important documents. Yes, I really couldn't find what the owner tried so hard to hide.
Xiang Yuan opened one of the most secret hidden compartments, and took out an exquisite porcelain bottle, which contained only two round pills, which were dark yellow and exuded a faint medicinal smell.
It was specially sent by Shen Qiancheng, and it was made by his second senior brother Feng Jue. Shen Qiancheng gave it an extremely indecent name, "Enchanted Soul Pill", to put it bluntly, it is a kind of drug.Thinking of Shen Qiancheng's thief Xixi secretly telling him in the letter the wonderful effect of this pill on husband and wife, Xiang Yuan silently lit a candle for his second senior brother.
However, Xiang Yuan still has great trust in the efficacy of the drug produced by the second senior brother.The second senior brother's family used to start out as a pharmaceutical company. Although they experienced the pain of losing their family, the background is still there. The second senior brother is also very transparent and intelligent. He turned from officialdom to study medicine, and he is no worse than those old doctors.
Xiang Yuan poured out a pill, pinched it in the palm of his hand, paused, and then put the porcelain bottle with only one pill back into the dark compartment.
This pill is not very harmful to people and has no sequelae. It is best used as a cliché.
