Chapter 177: Pregnancy
Meng Cimo said, "Mrs. Zheng's maiden family was very good in the past few decades, and there have been several senior members above the third grade. Now the uncle with the highest official position is serving as a political envoy in other places, and one brother is the deputy envoy of the General Political Envoy Department, and the other sons are not in high official positions. It is said that the eldest princess took a fancy to her because of her gentle temperament, the He family is prosperous, and the girls of the He family also have more boys......"
Jiang Yixi snorted coldly, "The girl of the He family will give birth to a boy, and not many times after that person returned home, Mrs. Zheng really gave birth to a boy." In fact, Mrs. Zheng is also a poor person, she is not liked by her husband, and the eldest princess is strong.
"If she is really as weak and harmless as she seems, but she is not willing to let her family associate with our brother and sister, then I will be fine with her. If she blames my mother for that person's indifference to him and takes revenge on me and Xun'er, I won't be polite. ”
Zheng Cimo nodded and said, "I won't be polite if she dares to have bad thoughts." ”
He leaned closer to Jiang Yixi's face and looked at it carefully, "Look carefully, you really have a little resemblance to Uncle Zheng." ”
Jiang Yixi was a little annoyed, broke free from Meng Cimo's arm and sat up straight, and pouted, "Who is like him." It is said that whoever raises is like whom, and I am like my father. ”
Meng Cimo hugged her into his arms again, "Yes, you look like your father-in-law." Fortunately, my father-in-law was smart and postponed your birth by three months, no matter how they counted, they couldn't have imagined that you would be Uncle Zheng's descendant. You try not to go to the eldest princess's mansion in the future, and try to have less contact with Miss Zheng.
"As for Uncle Zheng, my grandfather regarded him as a son and apprentice, and I was also close friends. In particular, King Ping admired him very much...... You can have no intersection with him, but I have to continue to associate with him in public and private. Rest assured, I won't reveal this in front of him......"
Jiang Yixi knew that it was impossible for Meng Cimo not to associate with him. The two talked about it late at night, and they made out before resting.
After asking for peace the next day, the front yard came to report that Zheng Yu was coming, and sent Zheng Tingting a letter and gifts brought by Zheng Yu. Meng Cimo went to the front yard to see him.
In the letter, the little girl said that she had gone to Zhaoming Nunnery two days ago to offer incense and stayed there for a night. also visited Li Zhenbao, Li Zhenbao lost weight again, and she was invited away after only a few words between the two.
The gift was two small bamboo baskets bought outside the hermitage, and the little girl in the mansion liked this kind of little thing full of wild fun. When Jiang Yixi lived in Huzhuang, he often saw that the Wu family's father and son would make up.
If it was before, Jiang Yixi would reply to her and send her another gift.
This time, Jiang Yi didn't send anything.
Thinking about drifting away from such a cute little girl, Jiang Yixi was still very reluctant.
At noon, Meng Cimo and Zheng Yu were drinking and eating in the outer courtyard, and Zheng Yu left at the beginning of Shen Shichu.
Meng Cimo did not return to Fushengju, but went to Fu'an Hall to discuss secretly with the old man.
In the evening, Meng Cimo told Jiang Yixi that when the 22nd Empress Dowager finished her birthday this month, the emperor would take the princes and some ministers and their families to hunt at the end of the month.
The emperor will bring people to autumn hunting at the end of August and early September almost every year, which is very common. And this time the place is special, it is the wild canggou not far from the imperial tomb.
Meng Cimo was busy with affairs in the army, and would use the Mid-Autumn Festival to go to the imperial tomb to see King Ping, and find a way to make the emperor remember Qu Concubine and King Ping, and it was best to summon them......
The Mid-Autumn Festival was closed, and Jiang Yi thought that Meng Cimo would come back for a reunion. On this day, many families will go to the restaurant to eat together, and the old man has already set up the Xingyue Pavilion in the thirteen pavilions, and promised to take the whole family to eat and admire the moon.
Seeing Jiang Yixi's disappointed eyes, Meng Cimo gently pinched her little nose. smiled, "When you achieve great things, whether you are at home or outside, it will be too peaceful." ”
On the second day, the family began to prepare for the birthday of the Queen Mother. In the past, the Queen Mother only did a big job on her tenth birthday, but in the past two years, the Queen Mother's health has not been very good, and the emperor wants to increase the blessing and longevity of her old family through the big office.
The people who enter the palace to pay homage to their birthdays include clan relatives, public officials, civil officials and family members of the third rank and above, military attachés and family members of the second rank and above, and some specially recruited people.
The Meng family is qualified to go, Lao Guogong and his wife, Cheng Guogong and his wife, Meng Cimo and his wife, and Meng Hua.
Because the second master's official did not reach the third grade or above, the couple was not qualified to go.
Meng Cimo is a third-rank military attaché, but he is the prince of Chengguo and is also qualified.
The gift has been prepared, it is the pot of "Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers". This pot of flowers and flowers is very good, symbolizing many blessings and longevity, which is just in line with the emperor's wish to hold a birthday banquet this time, and will definitely be able to fight a good fortune. At this time, the flowers are blooming brightly, there are as many as twenty-eight flowers, and the fragrance is strong, and you can smell it from afar.
Although the old prince was full of reluctance, he still gave up. He asked Jiang Yi to make this pot of flowers good these days and dedicate it to the palace in the best condition.
The other things are to make new clothes and new jewelry for these people who are going to pay homage to their birthdays. Jiang Yixi never entered the palace, and the old lady asked the grandmother next to her to teach her etiquette.
At this time, Meng Hua was very proud, which made Meng Lan and Meng Shuang, the two little girls, envious and jealous.
Meng Cimo did not come back on the 20th, he would come back on the 21st night and enter the palace on the second day to pay respects.
Jiang Yixi couldn't think of him anymore, and was worried and excited about another thing.
It's been more than four days since the menstrual period came, and she may be pregnant. It's too early, I'm afraid that if it's not, it's not good to ask a doctor to come to check the pulse.
Jiang Yixi saw eye diseases well, but other medical skills were not very good, including pulse diagnosis. She didn't feel the slippery pulse, but it doesn't mean that she is not pregnant.
She's conflicted. I am afraid that if I get tired and slip the tire, I will touch the moldy head of the Queen Mother, and I will bring trouble to the Meng family. If you don't go, you have to find a good excuse.
The next day, Jiang Yixi still whispered the truth to the old lady.
The old lady had been concerned about Jiang Yixi's stomach, and hurriedly asked people to go to the Tai Hospital to invite the imperial doctor who was best at gynecology. She didn't let Jiang Yi return to Fushengju, but waited for the imperial doctor in Fu'an Hall.
After checking the pulse, the imperial doctor smiled and said, "Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to Grandma Jiang, Grandma Jiang is happy." Although the slippery veins are extremely shallow, you can't go wrong. ”
The old lady was overjoyed, thanked the imperial doctor one after another, and asked people to give red envelopes.
The voice was so loud that the old man who was watering the flowers in the yard heard it and came in to ask what was the matter.
When he heard that Jiang Yixi was pregnant, he was also overjoyed. The eldest grandson is twenty-two years old, has escaped so many disasters, married a good daughter-in-law and returned home, and now he has a queen.
He asked Jiang Yi to go back and rest, and not to enter the palace tomorrow.
Jiang Yixi's excited nose was sour, she had lived two lives, and she was finally going to be a mother.
When Mama Wu and Shui Xiang and a few other girls heard about it, they were all overjoyed.
Not long after Jiang Yixi lived in the floating house, the rewards of the old man, the old lady, the Fu family, and the second lady Meng came.
The old man gave a pound of official swallows, the old lady gave a set of jewelry and a ginseng, and Mrs. Meng gave a pound of ejiao. Only Fu Shi did not send food supplements, but gave a piece of makeup satin and a fine flannel cloth suitable for making clothes and diapers for small babies.
