This was said to Xiaodie, Mu Xiyan's personal maid. Xiaodie hurriedly lowered her head and replied: "It's my cousin. It's all my negligence. Please punish me."
"Zhuzhu, it has nothing to do with Xiaodie. I felt the room was stuffy and insisted on going out for a walk."
Yan Mingzhu led her to sit down on a stone bench nearby and took her pulse again. "The fetus has stabilized a lot. My cousin can take a cup of tea every day to walk around the yard and breathe."
Exhaling fresh air is also good for the unborn child.”
Although Mu Xiyan could not get over the news of Yuan Bohuan's death, the child in her belly was the only remaining link between her and Yuan Bohuan in this world. She was alive only for this child, otherwise she would have died long ago.
Went together with Yuan Bohuan.
Mu Xiyan kept all Yan Mingzhu's instructions in mind.
"By the way, cousin, I brought back some snacks. They are new products from Ruyizhai. They taste very good. You can try them."
Yan Mingzhu waved to Liu Xiang, who quickly picked up the brocade box, placed it on the stone table, and opened the lid.
The exquisite snacks are neatly placed in brocade boxes and made into various flower shapes. The fragrance is fragrant and makes people very appetizing just looking at them.
"Hey, I discovered it, right? My sister-in-law and my cousin are secretly eating alone behind my back. Anyone who sees it has a share, so hand it over quickly!"
Seeing Yuan Yi running over with her skirt in hand, Yan Mingzhu pretended to protect the food and blocked the brocade box, "Hide it quickly, don't let Xiaoxiao see it, otherwise these snacks won't be enough to stuff her teeth."
"Cousin, you are partial. You are so ruthless, unintentional, and unreasonable. When you have a new love, you forget about my old love. Have you forgotten the cute smile by Daming Lake~"
Yuan Yi's smile stuck to it like a fast dog's skin plaster, and then took the opportunity to lift the lid of the brocade box.
"Wow, it's Ruyizhai's dim sum. I haven't had it in a long time!"
Yan Mingzhu grabbed a piece and stuffed it into her mouth, "It turned out to be the cute smile on the shore of Daming Lake. I remembered it, so I reluctantly gave you a piece."
"Xiaoxiao is so cute, can you bear to give her just one piece and leave her hungry and miserable?"
Yan Mingzhu was so amused by her that she waved her hand and stuffed the entire brocade box into her arms, "Here you go, give it all to you."
"Hey, thank you cousin!"
Yuan Yixiao held the brocade box, sat down next to Yan Mingzhu, and then began to divide the spoils, "One piece for my cousin, one piece for me, one piece for my cousin, one piece for me, one piece for Xiaodie, one piece for me, one piece for Liu Xiang, one piece for me...
…”
Seeing her sharing the snacks in a serious manner, Mu Xiyan was so amused that she burst into tears, "You don't fall behind when you share the snacks with others. You really don't suffer at all."
"Xiaoxiao is so cute, shouldn't he get twice as much?"
"Okay, okay, we've all eaten, and I'll give you the rest. Don't worry, no one will compete with you."
Seeing that Mu Xiyan was smiling heartily, Yuan Yi smiled and stopped joking, "I'll just eat two pieces. Liu Xiang, you can take the rest of the snacks and share them with mother and aunt."
"Xiaoxiao, you chat with your cousin for a while and eat slowly. I'll take it to grandma."
Yan Mingzhu stayed outside for two days, so when she came back, she naturally had to pay her respects to the elder's wife first.
"Grandma, my granddaughter is back."
Mrs. Yuanlao was making sachets with Mrs. Yuan Da and Mrs. Yuan Er. When she heard Yan Mingzhu's voice, she immediately put down the sachets and waved, "My dear, come to grandma and follow me."
Yan Mingzhu came to Mrs. Yuan's side, and Mrs. Yuan held her hands affectionately, looking left and right.
"Are you a little thin? First daughter-in-law, second daughter-in-law, come and take a look. My eyes are dim, I'm afraid I won't look carefully."
Mrs. Yuan Da and Mrs. Yuan Er came over to take a look, and suddenly they surrounded Yan Mingzhu.
"I have lost some weight. It seems that the food in Dingbei Prince's Mansion is not good. Zhuzhu, don't live outside anymore. How can the food outside be as good as home?"
Mrs. Yuan Er responded: "It's just that in just two days, I have lost a lot of weight, and my complexion is not as round as before. Maybe it's because Dingbei Prince's palace and Zhuzhu's horoscope are conflicting, and I will still be less beautiful in the future."
It’s better to go.”
You said this to me, but I didn't say directly "We think you and Qi Jue are not suitable, and you two should stop interacting with each other."
Yan Mingzhu was funny and helpless at the same time, "Auntie, auntie, I just stayed at Dingbei Palace for two nights. I usually work outside. The palace is very nice and I don't treat you harshly."
"Yes, yes, His Highness King Dingbei treats girls very well. He is afraid of falling when he holds it in his hand, and he is afraid of melting when he holds it in his mouth. As long as it is given to a girl, it is guaranteed to be the best. Even today and all night
If you want to go back to the Marquis Mansion, His Highness will send it back to you personally."
Liu Xiang didn't know the true meaning of Mrs. Yuan Da's words. She thought they thought Qi Jue had abused Yan Mingzhu, so she quickly put in a good word for Qi Jue.
Mrs. Yuanda and Mrs. Yuan'er looked at each other and said, "It's over." In just two days, even the maids around Zhuzhu were bribed. King Dingbei really has some tricks up his sleeve!
"Liuxiang, please go down first, and we'll talk to Zhuzhu for a while."
Liu Xiang looked at Yan Mingzhu, and after Yan Mingzhu nodded, she withdrew.
"Zhuzhu, after all, there are differences between men and women between you and His Highness King Dingbei. Women are closer to men. Men are not that big of a deal, but they have a great impact on the reputation of the girl's family. Do you understand?"
Mrs. Yuan Da held one of Yan Mingzhu's hands and persuaded her with sincere words.
Mrs. Yuan Er also joined in: "My aunts naturally hope that Zhuzhu, you can marry better than any girl in this imperial capital, and let those guys who look down on others take a good look at us. Zhuzhu is extremely smart.
But it is very popular,
But His Highness King Bei is the prince of the Tian family, and he has three wives and four concubines, let alone mentioning them. They are born to be superior to others. Now he cares about you and is willing to treat you special, but when he looks older in the future, he will have many young and beautiful concubines.
Serve, but when the time comes you suffer hardship and have nowhere to complain!"
"Yes, plus the current situation of our Yuan family, my aunts are afraid that Zhuzhu, if you get married in the future, your husband's family will neglect you because of this relationship. If you are from a noble family,
Even if the aunts risk their lives, they will never let you be bullied by them, but if it's the royal family... Even if we risk our lives, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect you!"
Mrs. Yuan Da and Mrs. Yuan Er were sincere in every word, and they were afraid that Yan Mingzhu would get carried away by their temporary love.
Yan Mingzhu naturally understood their intentions, and the corners of her eyes were a little sore, "My eldest aunt, my second aunt, and my niece all understand. Don't worry, I will never do anything wrong."
Mrs. Yuan Da wanted to say something else, but Mrs. Yuan Dao spoke at the right time: "Daughter-in-law, you should go back and rest first. Zhuzhu is a transparent child, and she knows it all in her heart."
Seeing this, Mrs. Yuan Da and the others couldn't say anything more.
After everyone else left and only their grandfather and grandson were left, the elder's wife asked: "Zhuzhu, are you attracted to His Highness King Dingbei?"
