Shu Shu said: "I'm fine here, but my body feels heavy and impatient to move. Now I'm just looking forward to the day arriving soon."
Wu Fujin looked at her belly and felt it was hard. He was worried and said, "How can I survive the next two months?"
Now the size of the belly is almost catching up with the full-term baby, and it will only be bigger than the full-term baby in the future.
It happened that Shu Shu had no flesh on other parts of her body. She still looked almost the same as before, and her belly looked horribly bulging.
Shu Shu smiled bitterly and said: "In ten days and a half, I will probably be lying down."
My stomach started to feel a little tight now, and the imperial doctor became nervous.
When the tightness becomes severe in the future, it is possible to give birth at any time.
Waiting for next month, it will be the seventh month of pregnancy. In order to delay the delivery time, it is necessary to stay in bed and wait for delivery.
Although she knows that she will suffer less if she gives birth early, the current medical conditions are not friendly to premature babies, and they will only be able to raise them in the belly every day.
Wu Fujin held Shu Shu's hand, feeling very distressed, and then realized something was wrong.
She lowered her head and took a closer look.
Shu Shu's hands were enlarged. They were white but slightly bluish and shiny. They were not fat, but edematous.
"this……"
Wu Fujin was a little panicked: "What's going on?"
Shu Shu hurriedly said: "It's just edema. I told you that this is common. It's okay. Sister-in-law, don't worry..."
As she said that, she pointed to her feet and said: "Not only are my hands swollen, but my feet are also swollen. I can't wear the shoes I used to wear. They are a finger bigger than before..."
She is currently wearing soft-soled cloth slippers with a heel and are very loose.
Wu Fujin expressed concern: "Then we can't keep doing this. When will it get better?"
Shu Shu looked down at her stomach, feeling helpless.
This is also the reason why she has been feeling uneasy lately, suffering from various discomforts.
She didn't want to waste too much time thinking now and wanted to relax herself. Otherwise, she would have a tendency to become anxious.
Wu Fujin looked at her, quickly changed his words, and said comfortingly: "There are still two months left, just be patient and it will be fine. You only want the best, and you will suffer less than others..."
Shu Shu smiled, nodded and said, "My sister-in-law and I thought about it together. I think so too."
And she has had enough and doesn't plan to have another baby.
Even if two Geges are born, it will take ten or eight years.
As for Brother Ninth, he has an antecedent cause of poor health. If it really doesn't work, he will just "relapse".
Wu Fujin sighed: "It's not easy to achieve nirvana in this world, and it's the same for the empress. She gave birth four times..."
Shu Shu thought of the fifth elder brother and his wife's request for a child.
Regarding seeking a child, it is very metaphysical.
Feelings are sometimes a matter of emotion.
If you remain emotionally tense all the time, it will be difficult to achieve what you want, which is "backfiring".
On the contrary, if your spirit is relaxed, you may get good news.
Shu Shu considered it and said: "The bamboos that fifth brother sent me years ago have been cultivated. In a few days, when the weather gets warm, we can move them outside. A few days ago, we said that we would share them with the ten younger brothers and sisters.
Some, sister-in-law, please move some pots back when the time comes!"
Winter is not the time to transplant plants and plants, they must be transplanted in a greenhouse, but even if the temperature is sufficient, it is not possible to survive.
Those from the Tenth Prince's Mansion did not survive.
Here in Shushu, because the greenhouse is better, everything has survived.
She told Wufujin this way because she was worried that if the bamboo in Wubeile Mansion failed to survive, the couple would have a grudge in their hearts.
The bamboo here will be a good sign when it is sent over, which will make them feel more comfortable.
Wu Fujin pursed his lips and smiled and said: "No, the bamboos in our house are all well grown. Master Wu brought back the little novice monk from Hongluo Temple who was in charge of the trees. He kept an eye on the bamboos and even made a Buddha statue.
There is a room specially arranged for people to cook vegetarian meals..."
Shu Shu couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
So don't mess with honest people.
If honest people want to be more serious, no one can resist it.
Not only were the bamboos dug, but the monks were also brought back.
It seems that he is really looking forward to his legitimate son.
Shu Shu looked at Wu Fujin. Outsiders could feel her feelings, and Wu Fujin should also be able to feel them...

During the next day, Brother Jiu told the story about Shengjing's ginseng lawsuit and Guidan's visit yesterday.
The fifth elder brother listened and frowned: "Grandpa, what are you doing doing this?"
Even the clan could no longer go into the mountains to collect ginseng, but he became the last ginseng collector. It was too much of a big deal.
Brother Jiu sneered: "Besides money, what else can you do for?"
The fifth elder brother blinked and said, "Where's the money?"
Brother Jiu said: "He has to ask himself about this!"
Brother Jiu is not familiar with the uncle's family next to him, but Gui Dan knows a little bit about it.
Guidan's family doesn't have much money.
The year before last, their family moved back to the capital, and they still lived in the house given to them by Guo Luoluo's family, in a five-entry courtyard behind Di'anmen.
There is also the matter of Guidan's marriage. If you are really willing to spend money on it, then the betrothal partner will not be the red belt Jueluo, but the idle clan member Gege, it is impossible to say.
The fifth elder brother shook his head and said: "How can you recommend Guiyuan as the chief criminal? It's unreasonable. Guiyuan is an only son and grandson."
Brother Jiu nodded.
He had never thought of this before.
From this point of view, Sanguan Bao is indeed hateful.
Guiyuan is his brother's only grandson, so he has no mercy at all.
Gui Yuan started to go to the mountains when he was sixteen years old. At that time, San Guan Bao must have arranged for the chief steward to take him with him.
As a result, something happened. I didn't hear that anyone else was involved, so Guiyuan just jumped on the cylinder.
Top cylinder?
Brother Jiu's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He did it on purpose. He knew something was really going to happen to Guiyuan, so I wouldn't watch in vain!"
Even if he ignores it then, what will others think?
The prince's haha pearl, the future is at your fingertips, he has been running around in the mountains and forests for two years.
Who would believe that Brother Jiu is not the mastermind?
Mandu, the bachelor who was the first to go to Shengjing to try the ginseng case, thought so too, so he hurriedly closed the case.
"Okay! The old man knows how to scheme. It's not Guiyuan who's holding the vat, it's me!"
Brother Jiu wanted to understand the key, and he almost jumped up with anger, and said angrily: "This is just a scapegoat for me!"
Yesterday, he was concerned and confused. What he worried about was that San Guanbao was amassing money by taking advantage of his status as the prince's grandfather, or that he might directly seek refuge in the East Palace.
In that case, their brothers will all be embarrassed in the future.
Even if he wants to be a slave to the prince, it is not at this time, let alone that he still remembers his wife's words and hopes that the emperor's father will live a long life.
As long as the emperor's father survives until his seventies, there is no way he will be able to send the prince away.
Even if he can't be sent away, he can directly support himself in his old age. Who would care about working for the prince?
The fifth elder brother frowned and said, "No wonder my uncle asked about your money twice a few days ago..."
Before, Brother Ninth just wanted to keep the Guo Luoluo family honest, without having to kill them all, as if their brothers were inhumane, but now he feels that it is an eyesore.
He looked at the fifth elder brother and said: "Fifth elder brother, let's change the master of ceremonies. Daobao is the son of man. When the boss comes back, he will have to go back to fulfill his filial piety. It is better to change to a lighter job!"
When the fifth elder brother heard this, he was a little confused: "His current qualifications are not easy to fill the vacancy."
The number of flags in the Eight Banners is fixed, and they are chosen within a fixed range.
Many of them come from worldly official families.
Those who came up from behind the Guo Luoluo family carrying the flag had no foundation.
It was already not easy to get a third-class bodyguard before.
Brother Jiu said: "Then fill up the vacancy for Gui Dan, free up the bodyguards, and let Dao Bao become the second-class bodyguard..."
The fifth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother, and he couldn't bear it, and said: "Even if we directly replace the second-class guard, that is, the gatekeeper, the uncle is already in his forties..."
The ninth elder brother looked at the fifth elder brother and said with hatred: "Is the uncle marrying the nephew, or the son marrying me? If you keep him, fifth brother, when the Shengjing family comes, how will your life in the house be?"
Can it stop?"
The fifth elder brother also knows far and near.
Brother Jiu's face also drooped, and he said: "Anyway, my brother is not going to take any notice of Guo Luoluo's family when they return to Beijing. That means they are no longer in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Otherwise, it won't be over until we clean it up! What if, Fifth Brother?"
If you are soft-hearted, I will be annoyed!"
The fifth elder brother couldn't help but patted him angrily and said: "Are you closer to brothers or uncles and nephews? If I don't favor you, who will I favor?"
Brother Jiu snorted coldly: "No wonder all the clan members who can't reach me are thinking about borrowing money from me. I was wondering before, can I borrow it? Even if I really get Khan Ama's five hundred thousand taels
Subsidy has nothing to do with them, so how can you be so shy? It turns out that the root is in Shengjing! Why did Khan Ama completely ban the clan’s collection of ginseng? Isn’t it because of the value of ginseng in recent years? What’s the result? They designated that
They were banned from picking ginseng, and I took advantage of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to monopolize a large portion of it. That's why I am so angry and want to share the profit in the name of borrowing money..."
According to the old rules, the clan can send people to collect ginseng, Prince Heshuo can send 140 people, and the lowest general Feng En can send 15 people.
Each of these people received a ginseng ticket and could follow them into the mountains to collect ginseng. The ginseng they collected would be owned by the prince after paying a small amount of tax.
Nowadays, a pound of good ginseng costs more than sixty taels of silver, which is an ordinary amount of two or thirty taels.
Picking ginseng is like picking up money, naturally the more the better.
The clan members wished they could have their men in the mountains twelve months a year.
As a result, the ginseng pickers at the Ministry of Internal Affairs cannot pay the full amount of ginseng.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs' annual human body mass production has dropped from nearly 2,000 kilograms per year to more than 800 kilograms.
Therefore, last year the palace issued an order to stop collecting ginseng for the clan.
The fifth elder brother also understood, stared, and said: "Outside, people think that you arranged for the boss to toss the ginseng, and you collected the money..."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Why else would they be thinking about getting money from me!"
The fifth elder brother was not happy anymore, and said: "No wonder they arranged for Guiyuan to enter the mountain. Otherwise, how could Guiyuan be white? The prince who came out of the study to accompany him, even a seventh-grade writing style of the Shengjing Internal Affairs Bureau could not
Do you want to make up for it?”
Brother Jiu gritted his teeth and said: "So why do people like this bother them? Guiyuan is not just anyone else, he is also their cousin!"
The more they suppress Gui Yuan, the more Brother Jiu wants to lift him up.
"I said in front of the emperor that I would redeem it for Gui Yuan. When the time comes, Gui Yuan will directly serve as a bodyguard for me..."
There are no more Wen Que in the Prince's Mansion, but it doesn't matter, there are still a lot of empty Guard Ques.
The fifth elder brother had no objection.
Of course he remembered Gui Yuan, who was the most honest and obedient among his younger brother's friends. He thought he could be at his disposal for a long time, but in the end he asked Guo Luoluo's family to take him back to Shengjing.
It's getting late, so it's time to go late.
Brother and sister-in-law are just in time for dinner, so there is no reason not to invite guests.
Shu Shu did not sit down together and asked someone to open two tables.
She and Wu Fujin were in the east room, and the ninth brother and the fifth brother were in the west room.
Chicken soup and beef soup are always prepared in the dining room, making it easy to add dishes at short notice.
She ordered people to add beef balls and radish stew to the pot, chicken soup with cabbage, shredded milk tofu, and steamed pork with rice flour.
The remaining dishes are mostly side dishes, including mustard fungus, coir raincoat cucumber, braised diced eggplant, and stir-fried green beans.
There are also two bowls of eggs stewed in milk.
These days, Shu Shu always suffers from leg cramps in the middle of the night, so she starts taking calcium supplements, so she has milk with every meal.
Wufujin knows that the food here is exquisite. Although it is not like other places with eight dishes and eight bowls of big fish and meat, it is delicious.
Today I was surprised, I just felt that the beef was too fishy and smelled a bit strong.
When the milk stewed eggs came, Wufujin picked it up and felt it was even more fishy...
