Chapter Seventy-Eight: Mother is more precious than son

Lu Xin suddenly asked, "Uncle De, is there a cauldron?"

Uncle De responded: "Yes, yes, what is the use of Miss Xin'er's pot?"

Lu Xin smiled and said, "Uncle De, hurry up and take it out, hurry up."

Uncle De didn't ask any more, and hurriedly responded: "The old slave will go and get it."

When Lu Xin set up a cauldron, half a pot of water was in it, and the firewood was boiling very strongly, and after the water in the pot boiled, Lu Xin put a few lightly roasted big fish into the pot and boiled them. After a while, a large pot full of fish soup was made, and the camp was full of aroma, and everyone was full of praise for Lu Xin, talking and laughing happily together.

When Lu Xin was busy with everything, she was willing to sit down quietly, and she deliberately sat far away from Xuanyuan Rui.

Suddenly, Lu Xin handed over several sharp swords and broadswords in front of her, almost startling her, and then looked closely, each sword was wearing a big fish roasted golden, leaking fat oil, and exuding the aroma of charcoal.

It turned out that Chen Qing and Chen Ping, as well as a few guards, had already baked them and were ready to be eaten by Lu Xin. Lu Xin looked at them all looking eager to take their grilled fish, and she really felt embarrassed, and she didn't know whose grilled fish she was going to take for a while.

Lu Xin was thinking hesitantly, when a few deliberate dry coughing sounds suddenly sounded next to her, and Lu Xin didn't need to look at it to know that it was Xuanyuan Rui. She looked up and saw Xuanyuan Rui glancing angrily at several guards, and Chen Qing and Chen Ping obediently took back the grilled fish.

Xuanyuan Rui immediately handed out a fragrant grilled fish and put it in front of Lu Xin, and everyone present looked at the two of them. Lu Xin's eyes crossed Xuanyuan Rui's body, and saw that the concubines behind him were all looking at her, she felt like the most despised third party in the world at this time, and she was also the most hated and shameless character she had always hated.

Xuanyuan Rui's obvious act of showing love to Lu Xin, everyone present seemed to know it at a glance and knew it. For them, it was just another concubine in the mansion from now on, and it was not a fuss. But I have never seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so attentive to any woman and so tolerant.

After Lu Xin only glanced at Xuanyuan Rui, she snatched the grilled fish in Chen Ping's hand sitting next to her with one hand, and ate it with a big grin, no longer paying attention to Xuanyuan Rui's anger at this moment.

Lu Xin thought: "Since he is going to fall into such an unbearable situation, then why should I take care of his face!"

This is the second time that Lu Xin has rejected Xuanyuan Rui under everyone's eyes.

In order to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere between the two at this time, Uncle De shouted on the side: "Everyone come to serve fish soup and drink it, the fragrant and delicious fish soup, I still want to eat it after eating it."

Uncle De shouted in the sound of selling steamed buns in the market, and everyone laughed heartily after hearing it, and they swarmed around to drink the soup for a while.

Everyone ate fish while roasting the fire, and ate all the hungry people in the past few days, and it was all meat, which was really enjoyable, and there was delicious fish soup to drink when thirsty.

Some people asked curiously, "Miss Xin'er, how do you know that there will be fish in this frozen river, and they won't freeze to death?"

Xiao Xuan hurriedly replied: "What's so difficult about my young lady?" My young lady has been a beautiful woman since she was a child, intelligent, versatile, and capable of what no one else can,.........! ”

Lu Xin listened to Xiao Xuan's appearance of starting to be triumphant again, and wanted to use her name to show off, she couldn't help but sneer and said: "Don't listen to Xiao Xuan's nonsense, how can I be so powerful, this matter is just a coincidence, it's not unusual."

Another family member said: "Miss Xin'er, don't be modest, there must be a reason for this, Miss Xin'er might as well teach one or two, and give it to the minions to identify it in the future?"

Everyone echoed the housekeeper and shouted, "Yes! Oh, yes! Miss Xin'er, please give me a lesson or two. ”

Xuanyuan Rui was also very interested in the questions everyone asked, and he was also curious about how Lu Xin could be sure that there would be fish in the river at that time. He looked at Lu Xin quietly to see how she would deal with everyone's problems. Lu Xin looked at the way everyone wanted to know, so she told the principle of the matter: "I can't say how to teach, in fact, I thought of it this way."

Lu Xin took a sip of fish soup and continued: "Actually, the fish will have to surface to breathe after being stuffy under the water for a long time. Have you ever noticed that the fish in the pond also surface to blow bubbles in the summer? ”

Someone asked, "Do fish need to breathe too?"

"It's hot and humid in the summer, but what about the cold winter now?"

"yes, yes, what's going on?"

"Is there a difference between the fish in the north and the fish in the south?"

Lu Xin said with a smile: "Hehe, you are right, but what everyone doesn't know is that the deeper the river goes in winter, the higher the temperature will be, and the fish under the water will swim up when they can't stand it." When they find a hole in the water that can breathe, they will rush there to breathe or play or something. And some of the fish are too excited or too angry, and they will jump up, and this is the fish we picked up! ”

Lu Xin said: "Like that river, the surface is covered with thick ice, we only need to open a water hole, we can sit on the ice and enjoy the fun of fishing, and it is easy to catch fish!"

After listening to it, everyone realized that it was such a simple truth that saved everyone, otherwise how many people could survive such a tired, hungry and frozen rush? Everyone was amazed by Lu Xin's profound learning, only a few people scoffed at it, and Xu Ji said even more disdainfully: "It's just some little tricks, it's not surprising."

The next morning, everyone's breakfast was to stew a big pot of fish soup and eat the fish that had been grilled last night for breakfast.

At noon, because Lu Xin knew Liji, Zhu Ji and Wan Ji no longer resisted to eat with them. When the maidservant brought up yesterday's grilled fish, Xu Ji couldn't help but want to vomit, so she ran to the side and held on to the tree and kept retching.

Li Ji kept patting her on the back and asked anxiously, "How is it?" Is it better? ”

Xuanyuan Rui asked unhappily, "What's wrong with Xu Ji?"

Li Ji said: "Back to His Royal Highness, Sister Xu doesn't know what's wrong, since last night, she will vomit when she smells fish, since she was hungry last night to now, maybe it's because she doesn't like to eat fish!"

Xu Ji saluted Xuanyuan Rui and said apologetically: "Asking Your Highness for forgiveness, it is the concubine who has swept His Highness's interest."

Xuanyuan Rui said impatiently: "Sit down!"

Xu Ji really didn't want to get close to those fish, but since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had spoken, she had to obey, and when she sat down slowly, she couldn't stop vomiting when she smelled the fishy smell.

Xuanyuan Rui said unhappily: "Come on, send Xu Ji to rest!"

Lu Xin thought: "They are usually pampered women, maybe they are too tired on the way to feel unwell, and they must not be negligent about this, I don't want to see anyone suffering from illness on the road."

Lu Xin looked at Xuanyuan Rui and said, "Why don't you let the doctor take a look?" If you are sick, you can also diagnose and treat it as soon as possible, after all, there is still a long way to go! ”

Xuanyuan Rui said, "Tell the doctor to come over."

Seeing the angry appearance of His Royal Highness the Prince, everyone didn't dare to move, and sat silently.

After a while, Uncle De led the doctor over, only to see the doctor carefully holding down Xu Ji's hand, and the expression on his face was surprised and happy, which made everyone inexplicable. He repeatedly diagnosed and treated Xu Ji three times before slowly letting go of Xu Ji's wrist.

The doctor turned around and knelt down and said to Xuanyuan Rui: "Congratulations, Your Highness, Mrs. Xu is happy, she is already two months pregnant."

As soon as the doctor's words came out, everyone, including Xu Ji, was surprised. Xuanyuan Rui also asked in surprise, "Have you made a clear diagnosis?"

The doctor said confidently: "Your Highness, the old man has repeatedly diagnosed and confirmed that it is correct."

When Xu Ji heard the doctor's affirmative words, she immediately cried with joy, she thought that she had suffered all the grievances along the way, and since she fell out of favor, she thought that there would be no more future. Unexpectedly, when I was most disheartened, I was pregnant, pregnant with the future dragon heir, and pregnant with His Royal Highness's first child. She thought that she finally had something to rely on, and she finally got through it, and tears of excitement and joy couldn't stop flowing.

The concubines present all pretended to be happy and said hello to Xu Ji, but no one was uncomfortable in their hearts, everyone thought about it with their own hearts, and they were jealous and hateful in their hearts, hating their stomachs for not being as good as their own fighting.

All of them knelt down together to congratulate His Royal Highness the Prince.

And Xuanyuan Rui couldn't say for a while, was he happy in his heart? Or something else? Seeming to feel a little sorry for this, he looked at Lu Xin and saw her standing aside expressionlessly. He had hoped that his first child would be born to Xin'er for him. Xuanyuan Rui thought like this, although he felt a little disappointed in his heart, but he was quickly overwhelmed by joy.

Lu Xin couldn't say what mood she was in at this time, what she felt, she wasn't unhappy, but she couldn't laugh either, her heart was sour, she didn't know whether to say hello to Xuanyuan Rui or ignore it?

Xuanyuan Rui finally spoke, and he said, "Help Xu Ji to rest in the carriage first!"

After finishing speaking, Uncle De called two maidservants and asked them to help Xu Ji up left and right When Xu Ji was about to leave, Xuanyuan Rui said again: "Go to the carriage of the palace to rest!"

When Xu Ji heard this, she really felt indescribable joy in her heart, and she thought, "Your Highness finally looks at herself differently."

Everyone secretly sighed in their hearts: "It's really precious for a mother to rely on a child!"
