There is a Dharma gathering at Yunshan Temple outside the capital today, and Aunt Cui and Aunt Ye are going to fulfill their vows.
Ye Pengpeng originally wanted to stay at home with Ye Zhenzhen, but Yunshan Temple was on the mountain and there would be many believers attending the ceremony. Ye Zhenzhen was worried about the safety of her mother and mother-in-law, so she asked Pengpeng to follow her.
Pengpeng has grown up a lot these days, and she treats people well. She is also half the master of Cui Mansion. If anything happens, she can make better decisions than a group of servants.
Fortunately, although there were many people attending the Dharma assembly today, the order in the temple was maintained well. The two old ladies did not have any major problems except that they were a little tired.
However, they heard from the servants that the lady had invited a doctor today. When they returned to the house, they didn't even have time to go back to the house. They went directly to Ye Zhen Zhen's place and asked repeatedly: "Zhen'er, I heard that you have invited a doctor today? What's going on? Yes?"
Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Ye Zhenzhen had already prepared her words: "It's okay, I just haven't had a good appetite lately, so I asked the doctor to come and take a look. It's because I have a fever."
This reason is really normal and everyone understands it.
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and they couldn't stand it even if they kept ice in the house, let alone a pregnant woman like Ye Zhenzhen. Aunt Cui was afraid that she would be overheated, so she quickly said: "It can't go on like this. In the future, your house will also be in trouble."
Put some ice in it, just put it outside, protected by a curtain and a screen, so you won't be afraid of the cold air."
Ye Zhenzhen also thought this method was good and nodded in agreement.
Cui Weizhen was stayed by the King of Wei for dinner today. He had sent Guan Yan back early to inform him, but everyone did not wait for him. They had dinner together and then went back to their respective houses.
Ye Zhenzhen has the habit of taking a bath every day, even when the weather is the coldest, let alone the dog days of summer now. She can't wait to take a bath two or three times a day.
But since she became pregnant, she had a lot more worries and was careful not to make any mistakes. Even though her body was sticky and uncomfortable during the day, she endured it. Only in the evening did she take a bath under the care of the maid.
Yes, now she has given up her reserve and directly let the maid take care of her. Because she uses a tub for bathing, she is afraid that she will accidentally fall and there will be no place to cry.
At this moment, she came out of the bath, wearing only a light and breathable undergarment, lying lazily on the sofa. Her long and thick hair had been dried by the maids, and was scattered casually behind her. It was smooth and shiny, like a fine horse.
silk cloth.
As soon as Cui Weizhen came in, he saw this scene, and the anxiety in his heart gradually calmed down as if he had been soothed by a pair of gentle hands.
He walked forward, closed the open window slightly, pulled a silk quilt from the side and covered Ye Zhenzhen's belly: "Why are you blowing the wind at the window? It's a bit cold in the evening, I'm worried about catching a cold."
"hot."
Ye Zhenzhen responded perfunctorily and asked knowingly: "Why are you here?"
Sure enough, Cui Weizhen asked: "I heard that you asked a doctor today? What's wrong with you?"
Ye Zhenzhen naturally said the same thing and said it was okay, but Cui Weizhen still frowned after hearing this. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that something was wrong with her mood today.
"Did anything unpleasant happen today?"
Ye Zhenzhen felt uncomfortable for a moment, but she covered it up: "No, I stay at home all day, how can anyone dare to make me feel uncomfortable? You are too worried."
Although she was smiling, Cui Weizhen could still see at a glance that there was something wrong with what she said, and he couldn't help but become irritated, and his frown never relaxed.
He was not a person who loses his temper randomly, so he continued patiently: "You have had a bad appetite recently, it's all because of the hot weather. Today I brought watermelons to Your Majesty. King Wei got one basket and gave me two.
When I came back, I had people put it in the well to calm it down. I can let my servants cut it up and eat it tomorrow. It is the best thing to relieve the heat, but it is not advisable to eat too much, so as not to ruin your stomach."
Ye Zhenzhen immediately became energetic.
In this hot summer, not only does she miss the air conditioner that keeps her alive, she also misses the sweet and crunchy watermelon.
Fruits that are common in later generations were rarely seen in ancient times when supplies were scarce. She originally thought that watermelons had not been introduced to the Central Plains, but she did not expect that they existed, but they were only a special supply for the royal family.
But in the summer, it’s okay to eat watermelon to satisfy your cravings.
I just don’t know whether this ancient watermelon is sweet or not. Is it crispy or gritty? Crisp flesh is best. She likes to eat crispy flesh. When she bites it, the red and clear juice spreads throughout her mouth. It is the most refreshing and refreshing.
Already.
Just thinking about it, Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help but salivate. She wished she could kill a watermelon and eat it with a spoon, but her reason finally restrained her impulse, and her face was full of regret.
Cui Weizhen's hand was stroking her smooth and silky hair all the time, his eyes fell on Ye Zhenzhen's drooling face, his lips moved, but he still didn't ask the question after all.
Watermelon is a special fruit in Huihe. Not many people are lucky enough to eat it, and most people have never heard of it. Ye Zhenzhen supposedly heard about it for the first time, but she didn't even ask, she just looked fascinated.
The way it looks, it looks like it has been eaten.
However, the irrationality in her didn't stop there. He always thought about it, waited, and hoped that one day Ye Zhenzhen would take the initiative to confess to him, but after waiting for so long, he never did.
Perhaps, in her heart, he is not trustworthy yet.
"hiss."
Ye Zhenzhen woke up from the sweet dream of watermelons, covered her aching scalp with her hands, and asked the culprit with tears in her eyes: "Why are you pulling my hair?"
It’s okay to treat her like a Chihuahua by stroking her hair, but to actually pluck her hair out, isn’t it too much?
Cui Weizhen was a little embarrassed and moved his hand stiffly: "I couldn't control my strength for a while. Let me see if it still hurts?"
Ye Zhenzhen: "...No need." The pain is on my scalp, what should I do?
Probably realizing that he had said nonsense, Cui Weizhen looked stern and said, "It's getting late. Go to bed. I'll stay with you today."
Ye Zhenzhen did not refuse, but when the two of them were lying on the bed, she was still keenly aware of the changes in his body. This was not the first time.
She lowered her eyes, stretched out her hand, and whispered, "Let me help you."
"Need not."
Cui Weizhen held her hand and his voice was extremely hoarse: "You have a good rest, I'll go out for a while."
There is no doubt that he must have gone to take a cold shower.
Although she didn’t know why he would rather pour cold water than let her help, Ye Zhenzhen didn’t ask. After all, this matter was still difficult to talk about. She was willing to help him with her hands to make a decision. She had already mustered up the courage. If she asked further, she wouldn’t know.
She was afraid of letting him feel like Meng Lang.
After he got back into bed with a slight moisture, Ye Zhenzhen slowly fell asleep with her heart full of thoughts.
The moonlight was clear and there was a faint light in the room. Cui Weizhen stared at the sleeping face of the person next to him, reached out and brushed the wrinkles between her eyebrows, and sighed slightly.
