Eat, sleep, play Tai Chi, read books, ride horses, and learn Chinese medicine.

This is Shen Mengxi's daily life.

Other people's ladies want to learn to embroider and make female celebrities, and the housewife needs to handle the affairs of the house, and she also needs to carefully handle the relationship between mother-in-law, concubine, and sister-in-law, but Shen Mengxi doesn't need it at all.

The affairs of the princess's mansion are responsible for the subordinate officials such as the Yi Order, the Yi Cheng and the Record, and there is no need to worry about the entry and exit of goods and goods, the collection of pastoral seals, and the exchange of gifts; There are also two maidservants, Qingfeng and Heyu, who are in charge of the personnel and miscellaneous affairs of the inner court, and there are several levels of maidservants below who perform their duties; Each child also has twenty or thirty people who are responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Everything in the house, she only needs to grasp the general direction. - No matter which aspect she focuses too much on, it is a job steal.

Except for the horses, there is nothing missing.

Shen Mengxi felt that her life was not as colorful as that of the diva who was more than forty years older than her. The diva is obsessed with national affairs every day, enjoying the thrilling whirlpool of the center of power, and the young face, which simply can't be more exciting.

But that kind of life is not what Shen Mengxi wants.

What she wants is a job that reflects self-worth, has time to be alone, and has reliable friendships or love. Stay away from people's hearts, stay away from baht.

It seems simple, but in fact, none of them are easy to obtain.

Fighting wits and courage, coercion and temptation, Shen Mengxi followed Sun Yicheng to learn medicine identification, acupuncture, and pulse, and compared them with Zhang's father one by one, and compared them with Western medicine, and made a lot of notes. Usually call the male and female servants and maids in the house to check the pulse, and if there is a cold or flu, they will see a doctor and prescribe medicine for free. - Actually, I just can't stand it.

During this period, Zheng Fuchun's wife had a difficult birth, she heard about it, and took the initiative to ask to go and see, so frightened that Zheng Lushi knelt and kowtowed to stop it, and even called it guilty, Shen Mengxi had to send someone to invite the imperial doctor and the midwife, and let Qingfeng pay close attention and report it in time.

In the end, Zheng Lushi's wife stayed up for two days and two nights before giving birth to a son, and she lay in bed for two months and still couldn't get up. After listening to the midwife's narration, Shen Mengxi felt that if she took action and helped her correct the fetal position with her bare hands, she would be able to give birth soon, but her status was noble, and she usually messed around in the princess's mansion to see the servants and maids, and she could go out to deliver the baby? Zheng Lushi didn't dare to use it, he was afraid that the whole family would die because of it.

Shen Mengxi sent someone to send the tonic medicine, looked up to the sky and sighed, and Sun Yicheng sneered. Shen Mengxi understood that he was laughing at her, and no matter how much she learned, it was useless.

"Alas, I suddenly don't want to open a winery!" Shen Mengxi said coldly.

Sun Yicheng hurriedly put away his expression, "Actually, the princess can train a few maids with her own hands, and they will be used by the two ladies in the future."

Shen Mengxi snorted, after getting along for so long, Sun Yicheng had no selfishness, except for the content that he thought was untouchable for men and women. And it just so happens that the big defense he is talking about is the profession that Shen Mengxi was good at before, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't learn it.

She also studied the distillation method of liquor with Sun Yicheng and opened a distillery, which produced very little and was purely entertaining.

Shen Mengxi used to routinely persuade Sun Yicheng to control drinking, and the old man blew his beard and answered. When he turned around, he muttered: "The old man is also a doctor." ”

******

Recently, An Ning has come more often, often going to the village to play, and occasionally going to Luoshui to take a boat. She no longer worries about her husband's concubine, but is often in a daze. Even if he chatted with Shen Mengxi, he would be distracted at any time and show a mysterious smile.

Shen Mengxi doesn't like to ask about people's privacy, and he doesn't care much. Nowadays, the princess county lord raises the first face, and it can't, the queen of heaven takes the lead in raising, and the upper and lower effects are effective.

Take a sip of tea, wait patiently for her to come back to her senses, and then continue chatting.

In April, the peony in Luoyang was in full bloom, and various banquets in the name of flower viewing appeared in an endless stream, and Shen Mengxi received many invitations, but he couldn't refuse. She was going to stay for a few days at Qingyun Villa, where the transplanted fruit trees had already bloomed.

The day before yesterday, there was news that An Ning was pregnant, but He Yu, who gave the congratulatory gift, brought An Ning's maidservant back, saying that the county lord of An Ning heard that the princess was going to the villa and asked him to go with him.

Shen Mengxi frowned, "Aren't you pregnant, don't walk around!" "It's the most troublesome to go out with a pregnant woman.

The maidservant period Ai Ai, after a long time, finally made it clear: the first time An Ning learned that she was pregnant, she sold the concubine given by her mother-in-law, but her husband was resentful, her mother-in-law was angry, and An Ning's answer was simple and rude: You didn't ask me when you took the concubine, so I won't tell you when I sell it!

Although the mother-in-law and her husband were angry, they couldn't do anything about the peace, but the atmosphere at home was frozen like ice. The mother-in-law sent two more intercourse on the grounds that An Ning was pregnant, and her husband gladly accepted and controlled the two daughters at night. An Ning trembled with anger, but there was nothing to be done.

The Wang family has been a chicken, flying and jumping dog recently, which can be described.

Shen Mengxi thought about it, agreed to An Ning's request, and simply made an appointment with the county lord of Qixia again.

In this way, she took her four children, and An Ning also brought her two daughters, and the group headed towards the villa.

Qi Xia doesn't go out often, she doesn't have the arrogance of the princesses and county lords of the Li family at all, she looks like her father Xiao, and her personality is also gentle. Shen Mengxi had an occupational disease, quietly checked her pulse in private, and asked again, only to know the peculiarity of Qixia, it turned out that she had a menstrual affair once every two months, that is to say, ovulation once every two months, plus the reason for her husband's work, so it was not easy to conceive.

Shen Mengxi comforted her, as long as it is regular, it is normal, "Qixia, in fact, it is not a good thing to give birth a few years later."

Qi Xia seems to have seen a doctor before and is not anxious. Just laughing. This kind of slow and unwelcome character won Shen Mengxi's liking. It's not so much that he likes it, but that Shen Mengxi, who is as lonely as snow, longs for a friendship with an equal relationship.

On the road, there are many pilgrims who go to the White Horse Temple to offer incense, some on horseback, some by car, and some on foot.

Approaching the T-junction, you can see a large sea of white and pink flowers in Qingyun Villa from a distance, reflecting the green mountains and green trees, which is very eye-catching. Shen Mengxi faintly heard a few young gentlemen in the carriage saying: "I can go to a nearby place to enjoy the flowers, drink a few cups, and write a few poems, so that this good spring is in vain!" ”

"Twelve Lang is delusional, but he didn't know that it was Princess Taiping's villa?"

A few people laughed, and a male duck said in a loud voice: "Yan Twelve looks quite handsome, why don't you learn to be the first face, or take us into the villa to enjoy the beautiful scenery!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a crisp whip sounded, and the male duck screamed miserably.

When a few teenagers turned around, they saw that there were five or six more carriages on the road, led by a luxury four-wheeled carriage, the curtain was made of fine broken pearls, and as the vehicle moved gently, it made a crisp sound, but it was impossible to see the faces in the carriage.

The car was accompanied by dozens of guards on horseback, which was very powerful. There were dozens of servants and maids behind the car, all of them were silent, and one of the leaders was whipping and glaring at the male duck's throat, and the hero did not suffer the loss in front of him, and several people immediately stopped, and the indignant words that came to their mouths were swallowed back.

The curtain of the car moved slightly, and I don't know what words came out, but the man respectfully replied, glanced at the male duck with disdain, and rode the horse on.

The carriage drifted away.

Several people were in a cold sweat, watching the carriage drive towards Qingyun Villa, looking at each other.

"Fang Fangcai, could it be Princess Taiping?" The male duck said with a whip mark on his face, and his teeth chattered.

"If you say too much, you will lose, and I won't deceive you!" The boy wiped his sweat.

A few young men walked anxiously towards the White Horse Temple, determined to burn a few more pillars of high incense and pray for a good life.

The carriage soon reached the boundary of the lodge. A wide and straight road is lined with two rows of ginkgo trees about four or five years old, which have just been transplanted, and the trunks are fixed with wooden stakes, and the leaves are tender and green, like a small fan, swaying in the wind.

On both sides of the road are large fruit trees planted according to Shen Mengxi's plan. First there were large white apricot blossoms, then pink peach blossoms, and then pear blossoms, and cherries had blossomed.

There are canals passing through the village, and the land is fertile, so most of the fruit trees have survived.

The peach blossoms are not pruned and pressed, they grow very tall, and they are full of delicate flowers of a tree, dozens of acres down, which is very shocking. Several cars lifted their curtains to enjoy the view.

Near the polo field, a place about 20 acres in size, there are rows of cherry blossoms, the branches crowded together in full swing, they have already got off the carriage, standing under the tree to look up at the flowers, the petals are multiplying, and the head is bowed heavily, just to cater to the flower admirers.

The adults laughed, the children were happy, the deer who had just been able to walk staggered a few steps, squatted down, stretched out two fingers, and wanted to pinch a petal, the nurse hurriedly stopped, Shen Mengxi stopped her, the deer pouted her buttocks, and finally picked up a piece of pink petals, turned it over and looked at it a few times, stuffed it into her mouth, and spit it out a few times.

Shen Mengxi didn't care, and let a few children play.

As soon as the wind blew, there were petals falling in a row, Shen Mengxi seemed to hear the sound of falling flowers in the laughter of the children, she stretched out her hand and caught a few petals.

Even the dignified Qixia excitedly turned around under the tree.

An Ning's dress was blown by the wind and stuck to her body, and Shen Mengxi noticed that An Ning's abdomen was bulging.

"An Ning, it's not that the pregnancy is only three months old, why does it look like five months, is it eating too much?" Shen Mengxi teased.

The maidservant arranged An Ning's dress, and An Ning smiled and said, "The imperial doctor has seen it and said that eighty percent will be twins." ”

Qi Xia walked over enviously and gently stroked An Ning's belly, as if touching a treasure: "An Ning is really blessed." ”

"I knew you were twins, so I didn't bring you here!" Shen Mengxi glanced at her.

An Ning didn't care, she felt that Princess Taiping had a much better temper this year, although she was a little unpredictable, but she never angered her or embarrassed her. She shook her head with a smile and said beautifully, "It's already here!" ”
