Chapter 553: The Crown Princess Asks for Help
Half an hour later, Grandma Xu's maid sent Mrs. Min out of the house, and someone else went to Jichengtang to report the good news, and Grandma Xu's pregnancy was one month pregnant.
The eldest lady hurriedly sent someone to Rongentang to report to the old lady, she went to visit the nephew and daughter-in-law herself, and the second lady, who was the mother-in-law, was not at home, so the eldest aunt had to worry more about it every day.
Gan sat on the bed to rest, full of shyness in the happy voice of the girls' mothers-in-law, the fetus was unstable in the first three months, although Dr. Min said that she was in good condition, but since she was diagnosed with pregnancy, how could the girls dare to let her go to the ground, and she didn't even want to worry about the housework for the New Year, Gu Chan volunteered to take over the errand of her sister-in-law.
When everyone saw the eldest lady coming, they hurriedly invited them to a seat and served refreshments, and the room was full of laughter.
The eldest lady sat in front of Gan's bed and shared the experience of pregnancy with her, and was chatting happily, the third lady came to say goodbye after learning the news, and then the congratulatory gift of the old lady was also sent, and the women in a room talked and laughed, and the time before and after almost a stick of incense, the eldest lady and the third lady said goodbye together.
Back in Jicheng Hall, the eldest lady was chatting with Pang's mother about the happy event of Tianding in the house next year, and the girl hurriedly came in to report that someone from the East Palace was coming.
On such an important day as Laba, the East Palace also sent people out, and the eldest lady did not dare to slack off, Pang's mother asked the guests to come in through the side door, and hurriedly went to the gate of Jicheng Hall to greet them.
Not long after, a little eunuch and a palace maid in her twenties, the only two of them walked into the main room with Pang's mother, and saluted the eldest lady to say goodbye to her early years.
The eldest lady didn't recognize the little eunuch, but she felt a little familiar with the palace maid.
"I seem to have seen you, this girl, have you ever been here with the crown princess?"
"Exactly, the slave maid is the princess's dowry girl Lixiang, and she has come to the house with the prince and the princess in the past year."
"Oh, no wonder, today you two are light and simple, is there something wrong with the crown princess?" The eldest lady immediately understood that there were two people in front of her, only this girl was the main master, and the little eunuch was just a person who led people out.
"Madam, don't hide it, the slave and maid came out this time to ask Bai Ko to take care of things."
"Looking for a white cardame?" The eldest lady glanced at her girl, and someone immediately went out, "I remembered that the crown princess didn't come to this year's winter hunt." ”
"Exactly, our crown princess is pregnant, and it has been six months now."
"Oh! This is a good thing, why haven't you heard of it, this is the third child of the crown princess, congratulations. ”
"It's really that the crown princess has not been very good since she was pregnant, so except for a small range of relatives, she didn't announce it to the public, and she just wanted to wait for a safe delivery."
"What the hell is going on? Even the Imperial Doctor has no choice, and he still has to come to Bai Ko for an idea? ”
"The crown princess has been suffering from all kinds of pain since she was pregnant, but it is not caused by illness, it is caused by pregnancy, and the dietary prescriptions prescribed by the food doctor are not very effective.
"This is true, our Gu Hui was treated by Imperial Physician Min, Bai Ko really worked hard for Gu Hui's diet at that time, since the East Palace sent you out, it can be seen that the situation of the crown princess is really not optimistic."
"The condition of this pregnancy is worse than the previous two times, I woke up in pain last night, cried for half a night, and the prince has been with me and has not rested well."
"Alas, although it is normal for pregnant women to have leg cramps and bone pain, the crown princess is obviously stricter, and the prince can take care of them wholeheartedly, and their husband and wife are really affectionate."
As he spoke, there was a sound outside the door, and then Bai Ko opened the curtain and came in, first glanced at the guests from the East Palace, and then walked up to the eldest lady to salute.
"Bai Ko, I have an important errand for you now."
"Ladies please."
"The crown princess is now pregnant with her third child, and she is now six months old, but she has severe pain all over her body, and she woke up from her sleep last night.
After listening to the eldest lady's words, Bai Ko's eyes widened, and he was a little confused.
"Butler Bai, I also brought those recipes, do you want to take a look?" Reika said as she was about to take something from her pouch.
"Don't look at it, since the crown princess is pregnant, she rarely eats shrimp skin made of sea shrimp, right?" Bai Ko blinked, came back to her senses, and gently pressed Reika's hand to turn the bag.
"Shopee? Isn't this a condiment? When it is not a daily ingredient, there are many dishes in the palace, and this shrimp skin is not eaten every day when I am not pregnant. ”
"But for pregnant women, it's an indispensable daily ingredient." The symptoms of the crown princess are typical calcium deficiency during pregnancy, and in this era when there are no calcium tablets, only shrimp skin is the best source of supplementation.
"Is that so? But the food doctor didn't know. ”
"It's normal for food doctors not to know, and the capital is not close to the sea, so where do you think that pregnant women should eat more seafood? And how many doctors born and raised in coastal areas have the opportunity to enter the Tai Hospital to become Tai Doctors? Bai Ko smiled faintly.
"As long as you eat the shrimp, it won't hurt?"
"Eat every day, when the medicine is eaten, pain in pregnant women is a common symptom, but it is not a normal situation, which shows that pregnant women do not eat enough to make up for two people, and severe pain means that there is a severe deficiency. Did the crown princess have leg cramps in the middle of the night? Calf pain? Pelvic pain? Loose or even bleeding teeth? Anyway, it's back pain, there is no comfortable place in the whole body, and because the pain is unbearable, I am more and more lazy to move around, and I don't want to go outside to bask in the sun? ”
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, it's like you've seen it with your own eyes."
"Fortunately, you came to me, otherwise the crown princess may not be able to give birth safely."
"Will it be so strict?"
"The crown princess did not adjust her body well before she became pregnant, and the deficit caused by the first two children has not been made up, so she broke out in the third child. In fact, it is very simple, ten months pregnant, relying on the mother's flesh and blood to support the growth of the fetus, the fetus absorbs a large amount of nutrients from the mother's body, and the mother can not get the outside world to supplement, both ends of the loss, and finally only death. Let me ask, how expensive is the crown princess this year? ”
Lixiang choked up, took out a handkerchief and wiped her eyes, she married into the palace with her own young lady, naturally knew the cruel struggle for survival in the palace, if the crown princess was gone, it would inevitably endanger the safety of her biological child, because the new crown princess of the crown prince would also give birth to her own children, the concubine born to the two princesses, the one who was taken care of by her biological mother would naturally be more able to sit in the position of the prince more securely, and the one without the biological mother, who knows what accidents will happen in the process of growing up.
