Chapter 186: Searching for Someone

Xiao Lu had never given birth, and she suddenly became uncomfortable with retching, and she couldn't help but panic in her heart.

The maids around her were also inexperienced in this area, and the room immediately became panicked.

Brother Parrot was by Xiao Lu's side, and when Mandarin Duck was sending someone to ask for a doctor, Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi happened to come over with her eldest daughter-in-law. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi thought it through and knew that Xiao Lu had only been diagnosed with pregnancy yesterday, and the people around her were all young girls. Yesterday, she chose four mothers-in-law who know medicine and are good at obstetrics, and they brought them together today, which happened to come in handy.

Xiao Lu easily forced herself to vomit everything in her mouthful, and her head was dizzy for a while. The mouth was uncomfortable, and Brother Parrot ordered someone to bring water to serve Xiao Lu to rinse her mouth.

The mother-in-law brought by Mrs. Zhenguo Gongshi checked Xiao Lu's condition, but she only had uncomfortable symptoms of pregnant women getting up in the morning, and most pregnant women in the world have to go through this.

After listening to the words of the leading woman, Xiao Lu, who was still a little frightened in her heart, slowly settled down.

"Thank you mother for coming to visit." Xiao Lu, who had settled down in her heart, turned her head and smiled and said to Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi.

"It's all I should." After getting married, Xiao Lu has never been arrogant, and she gets along well with her youngest son, and she is about to give birth to a noble heir for her youngest son. "Knowing that the princess has only been diagnosed with pregnancy, there must be no suitable person around her, I picked four mothers-in-law from the house, all of whom understand medicine, and I gave birth to three sons and two daughters are all served by them, and the family is serving in the house, and the princess can rest assured."

The four mothers-in-law were originally married from their mother's family with Mrs. Zhenguo Gongshizi, and the deed of the family was pinched in the hands of Mrs. Zhenguo Gongshizi.

When I brought people over today, Mrs. Zhenguo Gongshi also asked people to take out the deed of the four mothers-in-law separately and bring them over in a box.

Because the pregnancy came suddenly, Xiao Lu did have less such people around her. In addition, Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi did a good job, and she didn't forget to bring the deed with her when she sent someone over, Xiao Lu knew that Mrs. Zhenguo Gongshi also valued the child in her womb very much, so she happily took it.

The wife and eldest daughter-in-law of Zhenguo are both exquisite people, Xiao Lu regained some strength, so she invited the two of them to stay for dinner, and by the way, she talked to her.

"Why don't you see the ponyman?" Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi knew that her youngest son should be resting today, and it stands to reason that his wife is pregnant, and as a husband, he should know about it as soon as possible.

The smile on Xiao Lu's face, who was originally smiling, suddenly froze, and after being stunned for a while, Xiao Lu smiled bitterly but did not speak.

At this time, Brother Parrot, who came over with someone to bring tea, opened his mouth coldly, saying that Duan Shaoyou said yesterday that he was going out for a banquet, but he didn't come back all night.

As soon as Brother Parrot spoke, the faces of the princess and eldest daughter-in-law of Zhenguo became ugly.

Xiao Lu didn't personally speak to reprimand the Zhenguo Mansion to give face, no matter how Xiao Lu said it, she was a princess, Duan Shaoyou didn't return home for no reason, and snubbed Xiao Lu, who was pregnant everywhere, this matter can be big or small.

For this reason, the wife of the prince of Zhenguo and the eldest daughter-in-law glanced at each other, and the two of them got up neatly to accuse Xiao Lu.

"Mother and sister-in-law, get up quickly," Xiao Lu said after she hadn't rested well last night, and her complexion looked a little haggard. "Thinking that the colt Xu was drunk, he was placed by his colleagues outside."

"Well, yes, the pony has a poor amount of alcohol, I guess he is too drunk." Mrs. Zhenguo explained curtly.

For this matter, after lunch, Mrs. Zhenguo took her eldest daughter-in-law to leave.

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked out of the gate of Princess Nan'an's Mansion together, Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi couldn't help but look back at the high lintel of the Princess's Mansion before boarding the carriage.

As a result, she slipped and nearly fell off the stool.

"Mother?" Her eldest daughter-in-law was already standing beside her, and when she saw this, she hurriedly stepped forward to support her. "Be careful."

Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and didn't speak again, and let the eldest daughter-in-law help her into the carriage.

After waiting for the eldest daughter-in-law to also sit down in the carriage, Mrs. Zhenguo Gongzi opened her mouth and commanded.

"After returning home, I will immediately send a letter to your husband, who does the horse have a lot of dealings with on weekdays, he knows a thing or two. The colt didn't return to the princess's mansion last night, so he had to find a place to settle down. Let him find it, and save the news from leaking out. ”

"Yes, my daughter-in-law knows, and when I go back, I will let the people in the house pass the message."

The princess and eldest daughter-in-law left, and the princess's mansion was quiet again.

In the past, Xiao Lu felt that there was nothing wrong with being quiet in the house, and she felt quiet.

But today, when she was sitting in the room, the maids outside seemed to be afraid that making a movement would disturb her rest, so they deliberately lowered the footsteps, but Xiao Lu felt more and more uncomfortable.

"Parrot! Mandarin duck! Xiao Lu couldn't stand it anymore, and suddenly shouted loudly.

The mandarin duck and the parrot who were both guarding outside the house heard Xiao Lu's call and hurriedly ran.

"Princess, what's wrong?" Brother Parrot listened to Xiao Lu's tone of calling, for fear that Xiao Lu was unwell again.

"It's okay, I'm fine." Seeing people, Xiao Lu came out with a long sigh of relief. "Why is it so quiet in the house today?"

Hearing Xiao Lu's words, the mandarin duck looked at Xiao Lu and replied tentatively.

"The princess has always had to rest at this time, so it is natural to be quieter now."

Xiao Lu glanced at them in a daze.

"It's so quiet, I'm a little uncomfortable." Xiao Lu said. "I don't want to rest now, aren't there some little girls sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the outer courtyard? You go pick a few of them, and let them play in this yard, kicking the keys, turning the rope, and let me hear the sound. ”

Xiao Lu has the final say in everything in the princess's mansion, so after listening to Xiao Lu's instructions, Brother Parrot stayed by Xiao Lu's side to serve, and Mandarin Duck went to the outer courtyard to pick seven or eight cute little maids, all of whom were less than ten years old.

They were just sent to the princess's mansion, and they haven't even seen Xiao Lu's face until now, and when they were led into the main courtyard by the mandarin ducks, they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak.

Brother Parrot had already ordered someone to find some brightly colored shuttlecocks and flower ropes to come out, and those little maids were young, and their eyes couldn't help but be attracted by those brightly colored toys.

"Come here, pick up what you like and play with it." The mandarin duck asked the little maids to stand in a horizontal row in front of him, and said to them.

The little maids looked at each other, and at first none of them dared to take a step forward.

"The princess just thinks that the main courtyard is too quiet, so I asked you to come over, and come forward boldly with confidence." The mandarin duck raised his eyebrows obliquely, looked at the little maids and said. "If you behave well today, and you will be liked by the princess in the future, maybe you can be transferred from the outer courtyard to the main courtyard to serve."

After the mandarin duck said this, the little maids stepped forward one after another to take what they were good at and played.

In the end, when he is young, he can't help but laugh when he has fun.

Xiao Lu, who was in the room, heard the movements of the little maids outside and felt a little noisy, but she felt comfortable.

"Princess?" Brother Parrot, who was standing behind Xiao Lu and gently massaging her, said. "The colt hasn't returned to the house yet, do you want the slave to send someone from the house out to look for it?"

"No need." Xiao Lu's eyes darkened, and he immediately opened his mouth with a smile. "Presumably, the Zhenguo Mansion has already sent someone to look for it at this time."

The little maids played in the yard all afternoon, and when it was about to be dinner, Xiao Lu asked Brother Parrot to pass a message to let them disperse.

Each of them got a little golden melon seed.

"You have done a good job today, and this golden melon seed is the princess's reward for you." Parrot said, standing on the top of the steps. "In the future, you don't have to do the errands in the outer courtyard for the time being, go back tonight, and tomorrow everyone will bring their own bedding to the main courtyard to report."

The little maids went away thankfully.

When Xiao Lu was having dinner, someone outside spread the word that Duan Shaoyou had returned.

Seeing that he was back, the maids around Xiao Lu hurriedly saluted.

Xiao Lu also raised her head and put down the chopsticks in her hand, looked at him, and found that Duan Shaoyou had changed into a set of clothes, and one side of his face was still vaguely red and swollen.

"What's the matter, donkey?" Xiao Lu took the handkerchief handed over by Brother Parrot and asked while wiping his mouth. "The clothes on my body are not the casual clothes when I went out yesterday, and I also have injuries on my face? Sit down, and I'll let them fetch their medicine. ”

"No..... No need. Duan Shaoyou sat down sideways and said. It was my fault last night, I drank too much and was placed elsewhere by my colleagues. The clothes on my body were dirty by my drunkenness, and I was afraid of staining the princess's eyes, so I went back to the Zhenguo Mansion to get the old clothes to change into, and the wound on my face was caused by my mother. ”

Xiao Lu didn't expect Duan Shaoyou to say such things honestly, and he didn't expect that Mrs. Zhenguo, who loved her youngest son the most, would actually beat him, and she still hit him in the face that was easiest for people to see.

"Why did Mother beat you?" Xiao Lu said softly. "If it's for last night's affairs, it's not necessary, the horse is an official in the court, and it's normal to socialize and feast with colleagues."

"It was my negligence, my mother told me." Duan Shaoyou looked at Xiao Lu. "You were diagnosed with pregnancy yesterday, and it was really my fault that I didn't accompany me yesterday as a husband."

"The ponies know everything?" Xiao Lu lowered her head and stroked her lower abdomen shyly, and said. "Are you happy to know I'm pregnant?"

"I'm happy, of course." Duan Shaoyou looked at Xiao Lu's eyes and said sincerely. "This is my first child with the princess."

"As long as the colt rejoices." Xiao Lu said softly.
