Chapter 76
Chen Qi was sent by the Prince of Yongle Hou himself, and the Prince of Yongle Hou was not in a hurry to leave. After Yongle Hou came to court, the Prince of Yongle Hou was happy. However, when he knew so many princes, he could not help but hesitate. Who would have thought that Chen Qi suddenly sent someone to ask him to go to the Ruiwang Mansion? Yongle Hou thought that King Rui had something to explain, so he urged him to go there.
When I arrived, I realized that it was not King Rui who was looking for him, but Princess Rui. Princess Rui also told Princess Rui about the matter. Although Princess Rui did not understand the war, she asked who was the one who asked for the orders, and then asked the list of the orders. After King Rui finished speaking, Princess Rui felt that it was inappropriate, because although there were military officers who asked for the orders this time, none of the people who had actually been on the battlefield stood up. Princess Rui didn't know how to lead the troops, but knew that if there were too many people in the army, who would listen to?
Can the general appointed by Emperor Cheng suppress these princely families? Princess Rui asked Chu Xiuming's expression again. Princess Rui only said that Chu Xiuming did not speak. Princess Rui immediately asked Chen Qi to call Prince Yongle Hou back, and then asked Chen Qi to send a post to Chen Jin. Although Emperor Cheng said that he would not disturb Chu Xiuming's rest, Chen Qi and Shen Jin were sisters. The two were not outsiders. Even Emperor Cheng had nothing to say when they were close.
When Prince Rui saw Princess Rui's appearance, she asked, "Do you think something is wrong?"
Princess Rui shook her head and said, "It's just that she is thinking about her son-in-law's first time going out. After all, she has no eyes. It's better to ask her third son-in-law."
King Rui said, "That's right."
Princess Rui smiled and said a few more words, but Prince Rui stopped caring about it and simply went to the study room. Then Chen Qi looked at Princess Rui and asked, "Mother, what's wrong?"
"I don't know either." Princess Rui said, "It's good to go with your son-in-law, let your son-in-law ask for some experience."
Chen Qi pursed his lips and nodded and agreed. Princess Rui said, "You go down and prepare. When your son-in-law comes, you will go out directly."
"Yes." Chen Qi helped the maid's hand.
Cuixi brought a glass of water to Princess Rui and said, "The princess is absolutely wrong?"
"I just hope I'm thinking too much." Princess Rui sighed slowly.
Because of Princess Rui's words, Prince Yongle Hou and Shen Qi took this trip. Because of Chu Xiuming's words, Prince Yongle Hou was directly led to Chu Xiuming's study, and Chen Qi and Shen Jin sat together and spoke.
Prince Yongle Hou also heard Chen Qi's words on the way, and he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy and asked directly, "Brother-in-law, is this trip to Shu inappropriate?"
Chu Xiuming spoke, "Does my brother-in-law know the situation in Shu?"
Prince Yongle Hou shook his head and said, "I don't know much."
Chu Xiuming spoke, "Does my brother-in-law have to go?"
Prince Yongle Hou said, "Your Majesty has already called my name. If you don't go... I want to give my father an explanation."
Chu Xiuming also understood and said, "If you go, brother-in-law remember, don't speak, don't fight for merit, don't go forward."
Prince Yongle Hou frowned and asked, "But there will be danger? Didn't it mean that there are less than a thousand anti-publics there?"
"How many officials and soldiers were there in Shu at the beginning?" Chu Xiuming asked back, "What's the result now?"
Prince Yongle Hou felt nervous and asked, "Didn't it mean that he sent 50,000 people to come this time?"
Chu Xiuming stopped saying anything. After all, it was mostly his guess. It was not that he did not trust Prince Yonglehou, but that he would say these words. When he went back, he must have said to Princess Rui and Yonglehou. Not to mention whether he would be misunderstood. He was the relatives of the Yonglehou Mansion and the relatives of the Ruilehou Mansion. These powerful people have many relatives, and some of them were too clear, but it was not good if they were spread.
Seeing this, Prince Yongle Hou stopped asking, nodded and said, "I understand."
Chu Xiuming responded, his expression remained unchanged at all. Prince Yongle Hou said, "I still have a lot of nourishing medicinal materials. I will send them to my brother-in-law later. Please pay more attention to your health."
"Okay." Chu Xiuming nodded.
Prince Yongle Hou had something to do in his heart, so he didn't leave much and said, "I'll say goodbye first."
Chu Xiuming stood up and sent Prince Yongle Hou to leave. Chen Qi was talking about the Zheng Mansion with Chen Jin. He never thought that Prince Yongle Hou would leave so quickly. He was stunned for a moment and said, "I will talk to my sister again another day."
Chen Jin stood up and said, "Sister is now heavy now. If you just talk, it's better to let the people in the house pass on the letter."
"Okay." Chen Qi smiled and said, "The two of them walked out, and the maid put on Chen Qi's cloak, tidied it up again, and then went out.
Prince Yongle Hou was waiting outside, and there was obviously something to worry about. After saying hello, he picked up Chen Qi and left. On the carriage back to Prince Rui's Mansion, he couldn't help but tell Chen Qi what Chu Xiuming said just now. Chen Qi looked at Prince Yongle Hou's expression and asked, "Do you don't believe me?"
"Not it." Prince Yongle Hou said hesitantly, "I always think...will it be..."
Chen Qi lowered his eyes slightly, gently stroked his stomach with his hands and said, "Can it be that my brother-in-law said this on purpose because he couldn't lead the troops?"
Prince Yongle Hou was a little embarrassed, but Chen Qi looked at Prince Yongle Hou and said in a deep voice, "If your husband really thinks like this, then he will be too underestimated by Uncle Yongning, too underestimated by the Chu family, too underestimated by my mother."
"I don't mean that." Prince Yongle Hou saw Chen Qi's expression for the first time and quickly said, "I just think it's because my brother-in-law is too careful?"
Chen Qi asked sternly, "Husband, when did Uncle Yongning lead his troops? The Chu family has been guarding the frontier, how many wars have they experienced? If we only talk about military achievements, our current title is aggrieved."
Prince Yongle Hou's face turned solemn, and he also understood and said, "Just I was jealous of a gentleman just now."
Chen Qi shook his head and said, "Mother will ask your husband to ask Uncle Yongning for advice, I think it's a bit wrong."
When Prince Yongle heard Chen Qi mention Prince Rui's words, he thought of Prince Rui's care for him at that time, and said, "I'll send you back to the palace first and meet my mother-in-law."
Chen Qi nodded and said nothing more. Prince Yongle Hou coaxed him softly, "Madam, don't be angry, it's because I'm a little bit petty just now. I thought I could make some credit and make my wife more glorious."
"I'm too impatient." Chen Qi said softly, "My brother-in-law has an awkward position in the capital. She has not yet gone to war. She is also responsible for saying this to you. If it spreads, it's probably my brother-in-law..."
"I will prepare gifts and apologize to my brother-in-law when I go back." Prince Yonglehou said.
Chen Qi leaned into the arms of Prince Yongle Hou and said, "Well, it happened that a lot of fresh ingredients were sent to the village today, so I'd give it to my brother-in-law at that time."
In Yongning Bo’s Mansion, Chen Jin looked at Prince Yongle Hou and Shen Qi who were leaving in a hurry, looked at Chu Xiuming again, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Chu Xiuming did not mean to hide Chen Jin, "There was an anti-civilian in Shu, and His Majesty wanted to use troops and ordered some powerful sons and princes to go."
Chen Jin frowned and asked, "Who is the one who led the troops?"
Chu Xiuming said a name and official position, and Chen Jin became even more confused, "Then... who will the soldiers listen to?"
"I don't know." Chu Xiuming spoke.
Even though Chen Jin knew that Chu Xiuming would not make jokes about such a thing, he still couldn't help but look at Chu Xiuming's expression. He understood why Chu Xiuming was so depressed and angry when he came back. He opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.
Chu Xiuming looked down at Chen Jin and asked, "What do you think, Madam?"
Chen Jin shook her head, she didn't know what to say. Seeing Chen Jin's expression, Chu Xiuming's eyes flashed and asked, "Madam, do you think this battle will be defeated?"
"Many people will die." Chen Jin pursed his lips and said with some melancholy.
Chu Xiuming only felt that Emperor Cheng was not as clear as his wife. In fact, he couldn't say that his wife was very talented in military affairs. After looking at Chen Jin's expression, could this be the intuition of small animals for danger?
"Why?" Chu Xiuming helped Chen Jin walk into the house, as if asking inadvertently.
Chen Jin opened his mouth, "Which one is more hurtful, a nail or a plate of loose sand?"
"Even if the number of nails is less than a thousand people? And there are 50,000 people in loose sand? And there is sufficient food, grass and supplies?" Chu Xiuming asked.
Chen Jin thought for a while and said, "I don't know, but if it were me, I wouldn't want to go."
Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin went into the study, found the portrait that had not been finished that day, and then colored it, and asked, "Why?"
Chen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming with a little strange. Although he felt that he had a lot of problems today, he still said, "For example, today I can only make a casserole. If you want to eat clear soup, I want to eat spicy food, we can't decide. Who will Mama Zhao listen to? She can't say that she can't solve this problem when she was eating, so no one can eat it."
Chu Xiuming slowly breathed out and said, "Yes."
Chen Jin came to Chu Xiuming's side, looked at the portrait being rendered in color little by little, and suddenly said, "I don't like fighting."
"I don't like it either." Chu Xiuming said after hearing this, "I'm afraid no one likes it.
After Prince Yongle Hou and Shen Qi returned to Prince Rui's Mansion, Chen Qi did not care about rest and went to see Prince Rui with Prince Yongle Hou. At this time, Prince Rui was not in the house, only Prince Rui was the only one. Prince Rui sent out the people in the house, leaving only Cui Xi to serve him, and asked, "But what did you say?"
Prince Yongle Hou then explained the matter in detail, because Chen Qi had scolded him in the carriage, but he lost that kind of thought. He asked very sincerely, "Mother-in-law, what do you think of the son-in-law?"
Princess Rui sighed slowly and said, "If Qi'er hadn't had a good relationship with Jin'er, I'm afraid that Bo Yongning wouldn't have told you this."
Prince Yongle Hou thought of Chen Qi's words and couldn't help but blush and lower his head without saying anything. Chen Qi looked at his mother in surprise, but saw that Princess Rui seemed to have not noticed it, and then said, "Go and invite the prince."
"Yes." Cuixi responded congratulations.
Since Chu Xiuming said this, there are some things that cannot be hidden from King Rui. King Rui was in the concubine's room. When he heard the maid's message, he didn't care about appreciating the concubine's dance posture. He quickly came to the main room. He knew that if the princess was fine, she would never have been like this.
When King Rui also came, Princess Rui said, "Your Majesty still remember that I just asked the prince if anyone asked for his life during this trip to Shu?"
"Remember." King Rui looked at Princess Rui with some confusion, "Didn't you say nothing happened?"
Princess Rui shook her head and said, "I'm just not sure, after all, I don't know much about foreign affairs."
After looking at Prince Yongle Hou, King Rui looked at Prince Rui and asked, "What's wrong? But what did the third son-in-law say?"
Prince Yongle Hou glanced at Princess Rui and repeated Chu Xiuming's words. Even if King Rui didn't know anything, he felt that Chu Xiuming's words were probably pointing out. He said hesitantly, "It's not... the third son-in-law thinks there is danger, right?"
Princess Rui said, "Prince, who are the generals you said about the warriors you asked for? Who are the ones who have actually been on the battlefield and brought soldiers?"
King Rui thought about it carefully and said, "There is no one, can you look down on me?"
Princess Rui's voice was soft, "Who would have too much military merit?"
Prince Rui didn't say anything, Prince Rui continued, "Prince, how can a fourth-rank military officer suppress the prince and those noble families? Who will those soldiers listen to then?"
"But... there are less than a thousand anti-civilians, but this time they brought 50,000 people over." King Rui said hesitantly.
Princess Rui said, "But only these thousand people have left so many officials and soldiers in Shu helpless."
Prince Yongle Hou was convinced at this time and said, "Mother-in-law, what should I do?"
Princess Rui sighed and said, "Now you have to go. Remember the three words that Yongning Bo said to you, I think life is unhindered."
"It won't be so serious, right?" King Rui said with little confidence.
Princess Rui didn't say anything. Princess Rui thought for a long time and asked, "Princess, do you think I want to remind Your Majesty?"
"The prince thought why didn't Yongning speak in the court?" Princess Rui asked back.
Thinking of Emperor Cheng's character, King Rui opened his mouth and finally closed it. Emperor Cheng's nature was quite high at this time. If he poured cold water on him, he would probably not be able to fall well. And if it wasn't for sure, Emperor Cheng would not listen to him, but if Emperor Cheng really suffered a great loss in Shu, he would be held grudge instead.
Princess Rui looked at Prince Yongle and said, "If this matter is not close, they will ask about it actively. It is best not to speak up before seeing the situation in Shuzhong."
Prince Yongle Hou looked at Princess Rui and said, "Please give advice from my mother-in-law."
Princess Rui said with a gentle voice, "It's not anything else. I'm afraid that you won't be able to fall into your majesty's ears. Moreover, we cannot be the only smart people. You can observe carefully on the road, then carefully choose a circle and integrate it. When you see the situation in Shuzhong, you'll be afraid that someone will ask you for advice."
Prince Yongle Hou understood what Princess Rui meant, nodded and said, "Yes."
Shen Qi looked at Prince Yongle with some concern, then looked at his mother and asked, "Why would you let the Prince take his illness?"
Princess Rui shook her head, "If the son-in-law doesn't take this trip, when something really happens... she will be implicated."
Prince Yongle Hou's face changed and he said respectfully, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, my son-in-law understand."
Princess Rui nodded and said nothing, "Let Qi'er accompany you back home to pack up your things today."
Prince Yongle Hou nodded, "Then the latest day after tomorrow, my son-in-law will send his wife back."
Princess Rui responded, and Princess Yongle and Shen Qi bowed to Prince Rui and Princess Rui and left first.
"Are you going to tell your father-in-law?" Chen Qi asked as he looked at Prince Yongle.
Prince Yongle Hou thought for a while and said, "No one can tell me about this."
Chen Qi looked at Prince Yongle Hou with some confusion. Prince Yongle Hou did not explain anything, but just said, "Madam, just listen to me."
"Okay." Chen Qi responded.
The quelling of rebellion in Shu is a big deal for the people in the capital. It is not that this matter is too serious. Instead, it attracted people's attention because the princes and noble families are all there. Some people wonder why they didn't choose Yongning Bo to go. Gradually, news that Yongning Bo was plagued by his old illness was spread.
By the time the army was really triggered, it was already early February. The three princes selected by Emperor Cheng were very energetic. No matter how strong the aristocratic families were wearing special silver armor and rode on the horse, they looked extremely handsome. Many people were cheering. Unlike Chu Xiuming left Beijing, Emperor Cheng went to see him personally, and the momentum was great.
However, all of this has nothing to do with Chu Xiuming. He was resting in a closed door as Emperor Cheng asked.
According to Chen Jin's month, Chen Jin should have started in mid-March, but Madam Zhao has already prepared the delivery room and put a charcoal basin in every day to warm it up. Princess Rui and Concubine Chen came here specially. Who knew that the next day, Princess Rui sent two little maids over, which Cui Xi personally delivered, and said, "The princess said that the eight characters of these two maids are more powerful than the three princesses, and the delivery room is more popular, and these two were chosen by Concubine Chen himself."
Chen Jin looked at the two little maids when he heard this. Seeing that there was no forced expression on the two people's faces, he nodded and said, "Thank you for me to thank my mother."
Cui Xi smiled and said, "Yes, the princess said that she would just send them back after the princess gave birth."
Chen Jin asked, “Yes?”
Cuixi explained, "Will you go to Chen Fangfu Courtyard to serve him."
Chen Jin nodded and said nothing.
After leaving behind two letters from the little maids who were looking at them, Cuixi left, and Chen Jin said, "An Ning took the red envelope for them."
"Yes." An Ning responded respectfully. The two little maids were trained very well. After coming in, they looked very steady and did not look at each other.
Chen Jin said, "I will give you a big red envelope at that time."
The two of them knelt down and thanked him. An Ning handed over the red envelope. After the two of them took it, they kowtowed to Chen Jin again.
Madam Zhao said, "It was the old slave who was negligent."
Chen Jin shook his head and said, "It's just that there are no rules in the border town."
Madam Zhao smiled and said nothing. Chen Jin has been more than eight months now. She gave birth in about mid-March. "By the way, is the wet nurse's room ready?"
"It's ready." Madam Zhao said, "Madam really wants to feed her in person?"
"Yeah." Chen Jin said, touching the child in his belly.
Madam Zhao said, "I chose two more stable little maids to help the wet nurse."
In fact, it was said that it was for the wet nurse to be more important to look at the two wet nurses. Chen Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "Send someone to look at the two little maids just now."
It’s not that Chen Jin didn’t believe in Princess Rui and Concubine Chen, but that Chen Jin had to be careful and she couldn’t bear any accidents.
Madam Zhao responded respectfully, and Chen Jin continued, "When I send them away, I will seal it with a high-end seal, and then give them one piece of satin and ask someone to bring them some clothes for changing clothes."
"Yes." Madam Zhao remembered it all, and when she saw that Chen Jin had no other instructions, she went down to make arrangements.
Chen Jin then opened the letter Chen Qi wrote to her. The number of words was not much. He said he was a little worried about Prince Yongle Hou, and then he only realized how difficult Chen Jin had during that period. Chen Jin saw that Chen Qi was not worried because she really like Prince Yongle Hou... After thinking about it, he replied, "Just think about the child in his stomach."
In fact, Chen Jin didn't know how to tell Chen Qi that they were different from her and her husband. She believed that her husband said she would come back safely, and because of the child in her belly, she could hold on, but she couldn't say this to Chen Qi.
That night, Chen Jin felt her stomach thrust and sore. Before she could reach out to grab Chu Xiuming, she saw Chu Xiuming had already stood up. She glanced at Chen Jin and saw that she was a little weak and opened her eyes, with a pale face and humming, "It hurts a little."
Chu Xiuming reached out and touched Shen Jin's forehead, which was covered in sweat, and asked, "But my stomach hurts?"
"Yeah." Chen Jin listened to Chu Xiuming's words and felt that his stomach was thrusting even more severely, "I feel a little uncomfortable..."
Chu Xiuming shouted directly, "An Ning went and called Madam Zhao and called the midwife to me."
Although Chen Jin has a while to give birth, Madam Zhao has already been ready. Not long after hearing the sound, she came out while tying her buttons. Even the midwife came out. When she arrived in the main room, she saw Chu Xiuming wiping Chen Jin's sweat. Madam Zhao also said nervously, "But is going to give birth?"
The midwife stepped forward and touched Chen Jin's belly, then said that she had offended her, then reached out to touch the quilt, and said, "It's really going to give birth, but the amniotic fluid has not yet been broken, so I carry the lady to the delivery room."
"But it's not too late..." Chen Jin bit his lip in pain, and said with a confused face, "It's still more than a month away..."
"Don't worry, madam, it's okay." The midwife quickly comforted her.
Chu Xiuming wrapped Chen Jin with a quilt, carried him to the delivery room, and whispered, "Don't be afraid."
Chen Jin was almost crying, "It's not time..."
"Madam, don't worry, the child is almost nine months old," said Madam Zhao.
The delivery room was not far from the main house, and it arrived soon. The charcoal basin inside had never been broken, and it was even hotter than the main house. Chu Xiuming put Shen Jin on the bed.
Madam Zhao asked, "Madam, do you want to use something?"
"We have to wait a while, it's better to let the lady eat something." The midwife persuaded.
Chen Jin's stomach no longer hurts at this time, and he heard this and said, "Is it really okay?"
"I promised it to me," Madam Zhao said.
Chen Jin then said, "Please give me a bowl of noodles."
Madam Zhao responded and hurried to the kitchen to prepare. Anping and Anning were also preparing the delivery room items in an orderly manner. The midwife looked at Chu Xiuming and said, "General, you..."
"I'll stay." Chu Xiuming said. He took the cloth towel from An Ning's hand, wiped Chen Jin's sweat on his face and neck with his own hands, and grabbed Chen Jin's hand with the other hand.
The midwife wanted to say something, but looking at Chu Xiuming's appearance, she said nothing in the end. Chen Jin felt at ease when he heard this. Somehow he suddenly thought of what the midwife said to her. She was stunned for a moment and suddenly said, "No, you go out."
Chu Xiuming looked at Chen Jin and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."
"No." Chen Jin not only said that he also reached out to push Chu Xiuming, "Go out." Such a posture was too shameful, and...
When Chu Xiuming saw that Chen Jin was not pretending to be fake, he comforted him, "I will go out after I feed you something."
Chen Jin then calmed down and said, "You must go out, don't peek."
"Okay." Chu Xiuming promised, "I'll wait for you outside. As long as you call me, I'll come in."
Chen Jin nodded, Madam Zhao quickly brought the noodles and asked the kitchen to cook porridge and steamed buns as big as longan. For a moment, the entire Yongning Bo Mansion became busy.
Madam Zhao suddenly thought of the wet nurse in Prince Rui's mansion, and quickly asked someone to inform Princess Rui that Chen Jin had launched the matter.
Chu Xiuming took the noodles and fed Chen Jin with his own hands. Then he was driven out by Chen Jin. He did not walk far away. In the yard at the door, Princess Rui received news. Princess Rui asked to call Princess Chen. The two of them personally sent the wet nurse over and were also with them. At dawn, Chen Jin asked for another food, and then fell asleep in a daze. Princess Rui and Princess Chen came out to say a few words to Chu Xiuming and told Chen Jin about Chen Jin's situation. Chu Xiuming then entered the house to change his clothes, but he came out soon, staring at the door of the delivery room.
Chen Jin knew that Chu Xiuming was outside, and that Princess Rui and Concubine Chen were accompanied by her side, so she was no longer afraid at this time.
Princess Rui looked at Chen Jin who was eating and asked, "Is the ginseng soup ready?"
"It's all ready." Madam Zhao said, "The doctor is also ready outside."
Chen Jin suddenly let out a cry of pain halfway through eating, and An Ning quickly brought the things aside...
Chu Xiuming stood at the door and clenched his fists. He seemed to hear Chen Jin's crying. He almost couldn't help but break in like this. At this time, An Ning hurriedly ran out and said, "General, Madam said you must not go in! If you want to go in, she will not give birth."
"I understand." Chu Xiuming's voice was a little low, "Tell my wife, I'm here to accompany her."
Anping nodded and ignored anything else and entered the delivery room again.
Chu Xiuming felt that he had been going for a long time. From sunrise to sunset, he saw the maids coming in and out. Although he was moving very quickly, his face was not panicked. Chu Xiuming didn't know that he could be so calm at this time. He observed so carefully. I don't know how long it took, when Madam Zhao ran out with a smile on her face and said, "Congratulations to General, both mother and son are at peace."
When he heard this news, Chu Xiuming's body shook and looked at the delivery room suddenly. Madam Zhao said, "General, please wait a moment, the room is being cleaned up."
The doctor also said with a smile on his face, "Congratulations to General." He neither used the doctor nor the ginseng soup, and it seemed that nothing happened.
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, and walked directly inside without caring about anything else, but was stopped by Mama Zhao and refused to let him enter the inner room. He said, "The general is to roast the fire first, and remove the cold air on his body."
"Okay." Chu Xiu knew that he should have listened to Mama Zhao at this time, so he immediately stood by the charcoal basin, but his eyes were still towards the inner room, "The child is crying."
Mama Zhao smiled and said, "It's all like this. The young master is very healthy. He weighs five or six taels. He is handsome and beautiful, like a fairy child."
Who knew that as soon as Madam Zhao finished her words, Chu Xiuming heard Chen Jin's voice, "Why is Dongdong so ugly..."
The midwife in the room had already helped Chen Jin clean up. She lay on the bed and looked at the child who was washed and hugged Chen Fangfu's arms. Her eyes were a little confused. Chen Fangfu was angry when she heard this, "Nonsense, what a beautiful child."
Princess Rui also angrily said to Chen Jin, "Don't talk nonsense."
Chen Jin was so aggrieved that the child was red and wrinkled, and his nose was still shaved. Although it was a bit ugly, Chen Jin felt that she still liked the child very much, "I'll feed the child."
Princess Rui looked at Chen Jin in surprise when she heard this. Concubine Chen had no intention of stopping her. She asked An Ning to help Chen Jin up and sit down. She untied her clothes. Chen Jin carefully hugged the child. As soon as she met the child's mouth, the child opened his mouth and ate it with great strength.
When Chu Xiuming had no more cold air on his body, he came in. When Chen Jin saw Chu Xiuming, he said, "It's all your fault!"
"Blame me." Chu Xiuming didn't know what was going on, so he quickly responded when he heard this.
When Princess Rui and Concubine Chen saw Chu Xiuming come in, they both went out first. Chu Xiuming noticed that he was grateful, but he didn't say much, just nodded. Princess Rui smiled and Concubine Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Madam Zhao and Anping sent the two out, and Princess Rui said, "Sister Chen, please stay and take care of the girl Jin. I will go back to the mansion to tell the prince this good news first."
Concubine Chen did not refuse and said, "I will go back when the girl Jin falls asleep."
"You stay for a few more days." Princess Rui said, "I will take care of Xiao Si. I will have someone to send your things later."
Although Concubine Chen knew that it was a bit rude, Chen Jin was her only daughter, so she responded respectfully. Princess Rui then looked at Madam Zhao and said, "You can just say something to Bo Yongning later."
Madam Zhao responded respectfully and sent Princess Rui onto the carriage with Concubine Chen. Madam Chen asked the location of the kitchen and went to cook for her daughter with her own hands. Madam Zhao wanted to stay, but was rejected by Concubine Chen. "They are two young and the first child again, so Madam will still go and watch some."
"Yes." Madam Zhao responded, and kept Anping to help Concubine Chen, and returned to the delivery room by herself.
The midwife has left, but the wet nurse stayed inside, and An Ning is standing beside the wet nurse. The wet nurse is a woman in her twenties, with a handsome face and a clean and honest look.
Chen Jin changed his arms and hugged Dongdong and asked him to eat milk from the other side. Chu Xiuming walked over and looked at the little guy in Chen Jin's arms. Chen Jin said, "Why is Dongdong a little ugly?" She really didn't dislike her son, but it seemed to be a little different from what she expected.
"It's a bit ugly." Chu Xiuming followed Chen Jin's words at this time.
Who knew that as soon as this said, Chen Jin stared at Chu Xiuming with his eyes widened and saw tears starting to fall, "Do you don't like it?"
When Madam Zhao came in, she heard this sentence. When she saw Chen Jin crying again, she said anxiously, "My ancestor, can't cry."
Chu Xiuming said, "I like it."
"You said he was ugly." Chen Jin felt even more aggrieved.
Madam Zhao didn't care about anything else, glared at Chu Xiuming and quickly coaxed Chen Jin and said, "It's not ugly, the young master is the most beautiful."
Chu Xiuming was so amused that he reached out to wipe away the tears from Chen Jin's face and said, "Don't cry, Dongdong is the son you have worked hard for me, so I naturally like it."
The child was full and fell asleep in Shen Jin's arms. Madam Zhao quickly carried the child into her arms. Chu Xiuming helped Chen Jin tidy up her clothes with his own hands and said softly, "Does it hurt?"
"It hurts." Chen Jin stopped crying and said, "I feel sore all over my body, and I'm still hungry."
Chu Xiuming looked at Madam Zhao, Madam Zhao said, "Person Chen is already in the kitchen, I'm afraid he'll bring the things right away."
Listening to Chen Jin's words, Chu Xiuming felt very distressed. Seeing Chen Jin's face being haggard and tired, he lowered his head and kissed her eyebrows, and said, "I like it very much." I don't know if he was talking about the child or Chen Jin.
Seeing that Chen Jin was coaxed, Madam Zhao said, "General, will you ask the doctor to check it out for the young master?"
After all, this child was born before term, so it would be more reassuring to check it out.
Chu Xiuming said, "Okay."
Madam Zhao asked her to put the screen in, which made the doctor who had been waiting outside come in. She carried the child over and asked the doctor to check it out. The doctor said respectfully, "General, Madam, don't worry, young master is very healthy."
Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin were truly relieved. Chu Xiuming said, "Please trouble the doctor."
The doctor said respectfully that he didn't dare, and then stepped back. Concubine Chen also brought the things over. She made Chen Jin's brown sugar millet porridge and made eggs. She wanted to feed Chen Jin with her own hands, but when she looked at Chu Xiuming next to her, she still handed over the bowl. After Chu Xiuming thanked, she fed Chen Jin's mouth to the mouth. Chen Jin felt much more comfortable. After eating a bowl of porridge, Chen Jin couldn't open his eyes. Chu Xiuming said, "Go to sleep."
"I'll look at the child again." Chen Jin asked in a low voice.
Mama Zhao brought the child over, Chen Jin looked at it, feeling that the child became more and more pleasing to the eyes. Then she yawned and was helped by Chu Xiuming and lay down again and closed her eyes to sleep.
Chu Xiuming looked at Concubine Chen and said, "Mother-in-law, go and rest."
"How can you, a man, do these things?" Chen Fangxian said, "I'm fine here."
Chu Xiuming shook his head and Madam Zhao whispered, "Some day ago, Yongningbo deliberately found a midwife. I have learned it all, don't worry, concubine."
Concubine Chen didn't expect that Chu Xiuming had asked people for advice and said, "That's OK."
Madam Zhao said, "Please take care of the young master."
When Concubine Chen heard this, she was full of joy. She was kissing her grandson. If she hadn't been careful, she would have been unable to help but hold the child over and hug her, nodding and said, "Okay."
Madam Zhao handed the child to Concubine Chen and led her to the next room. Where was the special arrangement for the child to live in? The wet nurse was naturally taken down. An Ning followed her over and asked, "Can the general use something?"
"Get some steamed buns and clear water." These two things had no smell. Chu Xiuming was afraid that Chen Jin would disturb the rest if he smelled the fragrance of the vegetables.
