Chapter 406: A Significant Birthday
Chapter 406 A meaningful birthday
When everyone heard this, they surrounded Qin Zhiyi and walked towards the opposite side of the room.
Because she was the queen and the aunt of Lai Wang and Xiang Ling, she and grandma were all gathered together to take the throne.
Grandma couldn't help but murmured softly when she saw the lanterns and colorful decorations arranged by Xu Mansion.
"It's just a birthday celebration. This guy Laiwang has no business making his house so fancy."
Afraid that Grandma would mutter something more later, Qin Zhiyi simply lowered his head and explained a few words in Grandma's ear.
After listening to her explanation, Grandma suddenly realized.
She looked at the guests around her, and then asked mysteriously in her ear: "My dear granddaughter, you said they haven't consummated their marriage after being married for so long? What a darling, it's been several years, and they haven't consummated their marriage yet."
, this, if this spreads out, will it make people laugh out loud? "
"Shh..."
Qin Zhiyi signaled Grandma to lower her voice, and then told Grandma her point of view, and Grandma finally understood.
"That's it. I really thought it was because these two were not up to par, and that's why my great-granddaughter-in-law's stomach didn't move. That's why."
After she finished speaking, she patted Qin Zhiyi's hand and said, "You should have told Grandma a long time ago. Grandma is not an unreasonable old woman. If you had told me, I wouldn't have rushed up to ask that girl."
Why isn’t my stomach moving yet?”
In order to avoid embarrassment, Qin Zhiyi smiled and said, "They all blame me. I forgot about it."
"That's all."
Grandma waved her hand and said, "Since these two plan to consummate their marriage tonight, there's no need to rush them. It won't be long before we have a little baby."
Speaking of this, Grandma's eyes fell on her belly again.
"It's better that you try your best and give birth to more children while you can still have them."
Qin Zhiyi said nothing.
The baby in her belly was a complete accident. She had already thought about it. After the baby was born, it would be time for her to ask the royal doctor for help to prepare a bowl of medicine so that she could seal her belly.
Although she was also happy to give birth to Fei Chengsheng's child, she did not want to experience the pain of giving birth.
The dishes prepared tonight are very rich.
All the guests who came ate happily.
Also elated was Xiang Ling.
Today is her twentieth birthday, and her brother, sister-in-law, and even uncles and aunts from as far away as Biancheng and other places have sent her gifts.
The most important thing is that these were all carefully prepared for her by Qin Laiwang.
After dinner, the passing guests gradually dispersed.
Xiang Ling looked at the maids taking away the plates, bowls and chopsticks, and fell into deep thought.
Just as she was standing in the yard in a daze, there was already a cloak behind her.
"Madam, it's still a bit cold at night. Be careful of freezing. It's better to go back to your room early."
She responded and her cheeks turned red.
Her sister-in-law had already told her what she should do on the wedding night.
At this moment, he knew more clearly what would happen if he followed Lai Wang to the room.
So she nodded and didn't say anything. Instead, she lowered her head and hurried into the house.
The whole night was very quiet.
After Xiangling entered, she took off her cloak and put it aside.
Qin Laiwang closed the door smoothly.
Even the maid waiting in the room had already disappeared.
Everyone seemed to know what was going to happen tonight, so they all stayed quiet and made sure not to disturb the young couple.
Xiangling sat on the edge of the bed, wringing her handkerchief uneasily.
Qin Laiwang stepped forward and whispered: "Madam, shall we rest now?"
"Don't worry yet."
Xu Xiangling blurted out: "I, I want to wash my hands first."
It wasn't that she wanted to wash her hands, but she was a little scared and wanted to delay time by washing her hands.
"I'll wash it for you. Just sit down."
Xu Xiangling responded, and Qin Laiwang opened the door and asked the maid to prepare a basin of water.
After a while, the maid had already brought water.
Qin Laiwang took the water and sent the maid away, then walked to Xiangling with a towel, carefully grabbed her hand and put it into the basin.
Xiangling's hands were soft and white. After soaking them in the water, Qin Laiwang carefully took the bath beans and washed them for her.
When small bubbles formed on his hands, he rinsed them off with his hands.
After doing all this, don't forget to wipe her dry with a clean cotton cloth.
After finishing all this, Qin Laiwang took the basin out again, and the maid took it away and closed the door again.
Xu Xiangling became even more nervous. She sat on the edge of the bed, not knowing where to put her eyes.
Seeing Xu Xiangling's nervous look, Qin Laiwang couldn't help but smile softly.
They have been married for so many years, and she is still as shy as ever.
Then he said: "I recently got a book, and the stories told in it are very novel."
When the conversation started, Xu Xiangling was no longer nervous, and the two of them started chatting about books.
The two of them chatted for a long time over a book, until the candles were almost burned out. Xu Xiangling yawned and said, "Husband, let's rest. You have to go to the morning court tomorrow."
She knew that she would have to waste time at night, and she felt a little distressed when she thought that her husband-in-law would have to get up early for the morning ceremony tomorrow.
"Well, let's go to bed early."
Just when Qin Laiwang was about to untie his belt, Xu Xiangling hurriedly said: "Ms., please turn out the lights."
Qin Laiwang responded and then blew out the candle.
The whole room was so dark that almost nothing could be seen.
Qin Laiwang took off his boots and his coat. Before he could lie down, a soft and fragrant figure had already come over to him.
Qin Laiwang swallowed his saliva and shouted in a low voice: "Madam."
"Um."
Xu Xiangling responded, her heart already beating like a drum.
But she still had the courage to put her arms around Qin Laiwang's neck, and finally put her lips together.
This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
As soon as the rooster crowed the next day, Qin Laiwang quietly got up.
He did not dare to disturb the person lying on the bed. Instead, he carefully got out of bed with his bare feet, and then sat on a stool nearby to put on his clothes.
After everything was ready, he walked out the door cautiously.
It wasn't until he closed the door that he whispered to the maid at the door: "Let Madam have a good sleep. You must not disturb her rest."
After hearing this, several maids agreed one after another.
Before leaving, he went to the kitchen again and told the cook to make more supplements for his wife today.
After explaining all this, Qin Laiwang left the Xu Mansion, sat in a sedan, and headed towards the palace.
When Xu Xiangling woke up, it was already bright outside.
She wanted to get up, but she felt so painful that she couldn't get up at all.
I called my maid to come in. The maid had already taken her things and stood in a row, starting to dress her and wash her.
After he was fully dressed, he brought in breakfast and some nourishing soup.
This scene made her curious, so she asked: "What's going on today? If you want to eat, you should go to the front hall. What are you doing here?"
The maids hurriedly said: "The master said that we should bring all the things to the madam, lest she feel uncomfortable. The master also said that if the madam still wants to sleep after breakfast, just let the madam sleep. Today, Ruyizhai will be there."
There are also people taking care of it."
