Chapter 706: A Gift from the Eldest Princess to Xinran
In the blink of an eye, it was midsummer, and Wang Xiu couldn't defeat Ji Yunwei, so she moved into the eldest princess' mansion early.
She brought Xinran and Chengxi over, and the entire Lu family suddenly became a lot more deserted. Lu Yunhong was determined not to accept this kind of treatment, and ran to the eldest princess's mansion all day long.
Wang Xiu became impatient after running so hard. The eldest princess was afraid that they would quarrel, so she ordered a tea room to be set up in a wing of the main courtyard so that Ji Yunwei and Lu Yunhong could have a place to take a rest.
However, it didn't take long for that wing to become a place where four people played mahjong.
This kind of manual, mental and immersive entertainment interaction has won unanimous praise.
Lu Yunhong and the eldest princess are good at counting cards and enjoy it endlessly.
Ji Yunwei and Wang Xiuze were keen on counting money and settling accounts, and they would not let go of even a tael of silver.
The four of them each found their own place and lived in harmony for a while.
On August 14th, when they were still preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival the next day, the eldest princess suddenly started in the middle of the night.
Because it was the second child, the birth went smoothly.
In the early morning of August 15th, the second year of Zhengxing's reign, the labor pains intensified, and she was already in labor.
They were twin boys, not big in stature, but both brothers had strong bodies and very similar looks. In order to distinguish them, Wang Xiu also put red dots on the foreheads of one of them and on the small hands of the other.
The eldest princess lay weakly on the bed, looking at the son Wang Xiu carried over. She was moved and emotional, and couldn't help crying: "Why don't you have a daughter?"
Wang Xiudao: "It's great to have a son. Anyway, your family has a lot of property, so you don't have to worry about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law."
The eldest princess smiled through her tears, hugged her two sons, kissed her forehead, and then said thank you to Wang Xiu.
Wang Xiu gently wiped the sweat on his forehead and said with a smile: "What are you thanking for? It should be me thanking you! Now Xin Ran has company, she doesn't have to play with her two brothers. She has a younger brother.
You can take it with you.”
When the eldest princess heard this, she said with a gentle expression: "If you don't have a daughter, you won't have a daughter. At least I still have Xinran by my side, so I don't think much about it."
With that said, he took a box from the bedside drawer and handed it to Wang Xiu.
Wang Xiu asked suspiciously: "What do you have to give now?"
The eldest princess said: "This is the gift I prepared to give to Xinran, you can keep it for her first!"
Wang Xiu was surprised and said, "You gave me a betrothal gift so early?"
The eldest princess couldn't laugh or cry, and said angrily: "What kind of betrothal gift? I prepared this for her when she was born. I wanted to choose a time to give it to you so that you and your wife would not accept it."
"Now that I'm going to be in confinement, it's not appropriate to get angry or sad. It's up to you to decide!"
The current meaning is that if Wang Xiu refuses, he will not feel sorry for her.
Wang Xiu clicked her tongue twice, opened it, and found that it was a manor in Wuxi, with a total of 1,100 acres. She could hardly imagine how big it was.
The other thing is the land deed, the land deed for two thousand acres.
Wang Xiu: "..."
The Lu family's hometown is in Wuxi. The eldest princess did this because she hoped that outsiders would think that she and Lu Yunhong set up those two places, right?
I have to say that the eldest princess is very thoughtful!
But these are really too many.
Wang Xiu sighed and said with a headache: "You should have a good confinement period. I have to go back and think about what to give as a gift in return!"
The eldest princess looked at her and said displeasedly: "It is interesting to reciprocate with courtesy. You know that I don't lack those things, so can you just take them with peace of mind?"
"Besides, it's not for you. If you send me anything, I'll add a copy and send it back as it is."
Wang Xiu's mouth moved and she couldn't say a word, but judging from the shape of her mouth, she seemed to be venting her dissatisfaction to the eldest princess.
Seeing Wang Xiu's distressed expression, the eldest princess couldn't help but said happily: "Otherwise I'd say you're worthless. If someone else delivers the baby, I'd like to be rewarded more. Especially if the family delivers twins, the reward won't be doubled."
It’s all unjustifiable.”
"It would be better for you to keep it for Xinran. Aren't you happy?"
"Bai has been hanging out with Lu Yunhong for so long. Look at Ji Yunwei. Isn't he smarter now than before??"
Wang Xiu suddenly thought that when he left the table yesterday, Ji Yunwei still owed her one hundred and fifty taels of silver?
If he loses too much, he defaults on his debts.
She immediately said: "Okay, I'll keep it for Xinran first."
Seeing this, the eldest princess said with satisfaction: "Yes, this is good."
…
On the day of the full moon banquet held at the princess's palace, almost all the dignitaries from the capital came.
The emperor came with Jiang Qing. The emperor held his brother Ji Xingye, and Jiang Qing held her brother Ji Chenzhou. However, both of them felt that the other's posture was not right, so they reminded each other and slowly adjusted.
But I also felt that the child was too small, and his limbs were stiff and tight, and it seemed that no matter how he adjusted it, he couldn't adjust it correctly.
When the eldest princess saw this, she joked: "Since you like children so much, why don't you give birth to one yourself?"
The emperor was relatively calm and quickly put Ji Xingye back.
Jiang Qing blushed and put Ji Chenzhou down embarrassedly.
Upon seeing this, Master Ji couldn't wait to step forward, hugged both of them in his hands, and happily showed off: "Hold like this, so that you can hold both of them."
emperor:"……"
Jiang Qing: "..."
People around her began to laugh and subconsciously looked at Jiang Qing's belly. Some people even looked at her and asked her if she wanted any secret recipe for giving birth.
Jiang Qing was so frightened that she hurried back to the palace without even waiting for the emperor.
However, when she went out, she was surrounded by stars, which was in sharp contrast to Mei Min, who came to the princess's mansion with two maids.
It seems that I didn't expect to meet here. Both of them are a little incredible.
At this time, Mei Min was already bloated due to pregnancy. She looked completely different from before, and she no longer had the aloofness of the past.
She looked at Jiang Qing in astonishment, but she felt her eyes flashed. The second young lady of the Jiang family who used to be uncontested had turned into a noble concubine who was as beautiful as a fairy?
Gorgeous and moving clothes, exquisitely carved gold hairpins, fair and flawless face, bright and spring-like eyes, it can be seen that she lived a very good life in the palace.
Mei Min squeezed it tightly, then stretched out her hand to support her belly, trying to show that she was pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to salute.
But what she didn't know was that Jiang Qing had no intention of entangled at all. She just quickly took away her sight and strode away.
It was as if she had never known this person before.
Mei Min froze, feeling wet and cold all over.
Her proud self-esteem was ignored, as if an invisible big foot stepped on her face.
Severe pain hit her, and she slowly fell down while holding her waist.
When the maid next to her saw this, she screamed in horror, but soon discovered that Mei Min had seen red!
But this is in front of the eldest princess's mansion. How is this allowed?
So the maid called the coachman to help get Mei Min's house into the car, and hurried to Wu Jinghou's house...
