Qin Rushuang quickly helped him up, "Boss Xu, you don't have to be like this. Since we are doing business, there is no such thing as giving for free. Let's make a fortune together."
Boss Xu insisted: "If the princess hadn't suddenly gone to Zhou County to investigate and deal with this harmful Taoist temple, my family fortune would have been destroyed by me in a short time! I would like to thank the princess for guarding the ancestral inheritance for me.
’s foundation!”
"Boss Xu, there's no need to be anxious. You need to stop using the Fuyuan Ointment first, and we'll talk about the rest later. We won't let you suffer in vain."
Boss Xu was moved again after hearing this.
Since ancient times, people have not fought with officials. The princess's status is so high. Even if he is asked to give up the formula, he can only obey it. But now the princess not only saved him, but was also willing to conspire with him on big things.
How can you make him unhappy? Not moved?
After seeing off the grateful Boss Xu, Qin Rushuang finally had time to drink a glass of water.
At this moment Xie Xun also came back.
"How are you, Your Majesty? Have the people dealt with it almost as well?"
Xie Xun nodded, picked up half of the water Qin Rushuang drank from the table and drank it all in one gulp.
"It's almost done. I just heard clearly that Boss Xu is also here?"
Seeing Xie Xun drinking the remaining water she drank, Qin Rushuang's face felt hot, so she turned away.
"Yes, just find some time to talk to Boss Xu about the rouge formula."
"That's good."
"The matter in Zhou County is almost settled, but I'm still worried about whether the people behind it in Kyoto can be found out."
Seeing Qin Rushuang frowning, Xie Xun raised his hand and brushed it between her brows.
"Don't frown. If you are not happy, the child in your belly is not happy either. Let Shen Xiaoyang handle matters in Kyoto. Think carefully about where we will go next."
Qin Rushuang exhaled a breath.
Also, things are endless, and she can't worry alone.
After relaxing, Qin Rushuang rested against the back of the chair.
Her belly is getting bigger now, and she feels tired after sitting upright for a while. She used to be a bit pretentious in front of Xie Xun, but now she has completely given up on showing off in front of Xie Xun, and is leaning back on the chair with a carefree attitude.
The two of them were speechless, and just as they were about to rest for a while, Qin Rushuang suddenly felt her stomach move.
"ah!"
"What's wrong?" Xie Xun stood up immediately and asked with concern, "But what's wrong with you?"
Qin Rushuang gently touched her lower abdomen with her hand, shook her head and said, "No, it's just... he seems to have moved..."
"What...what moved...?" Xie Xun was a little at a loss.
"My stomach moved."
Qin Rushuang calculated the time and found that it was indeed almost the month when fetal movements would occur.
Seeing Xie Xun staring at her belly nervously, Qin Rushuang wanted to laugh, and suddenly said: "Would you like to touch it, Your Majesty?"
"May I?"
"sure."
Qin Rushuang was sitting when she saw Xie Xun walking over, then regardless of etiquette, he knelt down on one knee and put his face close to her belly.
He stretched out his hand several times, as if he was afraid of hurting the child in his belly, so he only dared to lean against the clothes and did not dare to touch it.
Qin Rushuang suddenly softened her heart. She reached out to grab Xie Xun's hand and pressed it on her stomach, "Your Majesty, this is how you can touch it."
Qin Rushuang could feel Xie Xun's whole body tightening.
Xie Xun held his breath and concentrated, feeling the warm touch under his hands.
The weather has been hot these days. Qin Rushuang wore very thin clothes and could feel her round belly through the thin layer of gauze.
His subordinates are his and Qin Rushuang's children...
I don’t know if it was because the child in his belly was not showing respect, but Xie Xun touched the child for a while and didn’t move again.
"Maybe it's too quiet and he's not used to it? If I get up and take a few steps, maybe he'll move again."
Xie Xun reluctantly took back his hand.
"No, you and the child have a good rest. We will set off the day after tomorrow to the next stop."
"Um."
Kyoto, nunnery.
Qin Fanghao leaned against the window and stared blankly at the woods outside the window.
If Qin Rushuang were here now, she would be surprised to see Qin Fang's good appearance.
When other people are pregnant, after the morning sickness, their appetite will get better and their whole body will become rounder. However, Qin Fanghao was so thin at this time.
Her eyes were a little dull, her eyes were thickly blue and black, and her face had become so thin that it was sunken.
The thin summer shirt hung on her body like it was hanging on a bamboo pole, fluttering.
"Mother, it's time to eat."
Qiu Ning walked in carrying something.
"I don't want to eat. I've eaten enough in the past few days, but I still feel so tired. Qiuning, what do you think is wrong with me?"
A dark look flashed in Qiu Ning's eyes, then she concealed the expression on her face and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, mistress, you must have been overjoyed a few days ago and ate less, so you lost weight. Haven't you vomited in the past few days?
?As long as you eat more, you will make up for it gradually."
"Really... But I feel like I haven't been in good spirits these past few days. I always want to sleep. Am I suffering from some disease?" Qin Fang seemed to be grasping at a life-saving straw, holding Qiu Ning's wrist and only holding his hand.
Qiu Ning felt a little pain from the pinch.
Qiu Ning broke away from Qin Fang's good hand without leaving a trace, and said with a smile: "How could it be? Miss Qin is taking two supplements by herself. It must be because she is pregnant with a little grandson, so she needs what she needs.
More, Miss Qin just eat more."
Qin Fanghao was like a walking corpse. He picked up a chopstick and put the dish into his mouth to chew, unable to taste it.
She finished all the dishes without saying a word, then raised her head and asked Qiuning: "My husband hasn't been here for a long time. Is he tired of me?"
"How could it be? If the master didn't like the mistress, how could he let the mistress become pregnant with the master's only flesh and blood? Please relax, mistress."
"What about dad? Dad doesn't come to see me either."
Qiu Ning was a little annoyed by her question, but she still suppressed her temper and said kindly: "Has the mistress forgotten again? Master Yu said that he will come to see you today, just wait a moment."
Just as he finished speaking, the door to the room was pushed open and Yu Zaizhong walked in.
Qin Fang's eyes suddenly brightened up. After he saw clearly that it was Yu Zaizhong, he walked over in three steps and then poked his head behind him. Then the light in his eyes dimmed again.
"Why is it that only daddy is here, where is my husband?"
"Master is busy, I will see you another day."
"Dad, husband, is he..."
Yu Zaizhong said with a straight face: "Don't be ridiculous. The situation in Kyoto these days is serious. The master has important matters, so don't cause trouble for him."
Qin Fang became even more worried after hearing this, "Dad, what happened?"
Yu Zaizhong waved his hand and said: "Some of the master's small businesses in Zhou County have been disrupted. It's all Qin Rushuang's fault. If her own business is doing well, she doesn't want others to become bigger."
As soon as Qin Fanghao heard Qin Rushuang's name, he immediately asked: "What's going on?"
Yu Zaizhong stroked his beard and said: "Originally, dad didn't want to tell you these troublesome things, but this time Qin Rushuang did too much."
"She came to Zhou County to develop the Du family's industry. She saw that her master's business in Zhou County was getting big, so she didn't want to see other people's kindness and got involved... Okay, you listen to dad and take good care of the baby now.
After gaining the prince's favor in the future, we can make great plans together..."
