Chapter 123: White Fungus
Zhuang Yumeng nodded shyly.
"It's good, it's good!" Zhuangyuan kissed Zhuang Yumeng's forehead excitedly, and his hands were trembling with excitement, "Yumeng, don't worry, from today on, you can eat whatever you want, drink whatever you want, and do whatever you want, from now on, our family will listen to you!"
"Fool!" Zhuang Yumeng said angrily, "My mother-in-law is strong and healthy, how can I be the master of the house as a daughter-in-law? It's a joke to say it."
"Nothing good to joke about." As soon as Zhuang Yumeng's voice fell, Yun Qin's voice came from the door, "You have been at the door for many years, taking care of housework, and providing Yun Lang with education, you should have handed over the housekeeper key to you early, but because I was confused for a while, it has been delayed until now. Now that you are pregnant with Yunlang's child, it is time to take advantage of this joy to be overjoyed and give you the housekeeper key." As he spoke, Yun Qin took a bunch of keys from his waist and solemnly handed them over to Zhuang Yumeng.
"Mother-in-law......" Looking at the kind old woman in front of her, Zhuang Yumeng's eyes were full of tears, and she felt that she had finally come out.
"Silly boy, what are you crying about?" Yun Qin's clan hurriedly reached out and wiped away the tears on Zhuang Yumeng's cheeks, "You must not cry now, crying at this time will hurt your body and make it easy to move the fetus." Yun Qin's warm palms and chattering exhortations made Zhuang Yumeng's heart melt.
"Why didn't you send someone to tell me about such a big happy event?" Qiao Xiya's bright and smiling voice came from the door.
"Your Excellency." The mother and son both stood up and saluted.
"Don't move." Qiao Xiya crossed the mother and son, went straight to Zhuang Yumeng, and pressed her.
"Originally, I wanted Qianyu to tell you, but my mother-in-law said that it would be unlucky if she publicized it to the outside world in the first three months." Zhuang Yumeng explained with a smile.
"I'm your mother's family, not an outsider." Qiao Xiya knocked lightly and heavily, "If Chunling hadn't told me today that I saw Qianyu go to invite Langzhong, I don't know when I would have known."
"Yes, yes, it's because the old body is not thoughtful." Yun Qin hurriedly confessed his mistake.
"It doesn't matter." Qiao Xiya said lightly, "Zhuangyuanlang, Yumeng finally adjusted her body and became pregnant with your flesh and blood, you can't bear her."
"Don't dare." The champion gave a deep salute.
"Alas," Qiao Xiya sighed softly, "Chunling, bring things in."
"Hey!" Chunling turned his face and carried a slightly longer box into the house, opened the box, and the inside was neatly stacked, all of which were fine white fungus.
"The concubines with high status in the palace are pregnant, they all eat bird's nest, and those with low status eat white fungus, thinking that these two must have something in common, they must be good things to raise the fetus, bird's nest is precious, I can't afford to give it to you, this white fungus is not easy to get, but I also tried my best to find such a box for you, you let Qianyu stew for you every day, it is good for you and the child." Saying that, Qiao Xiya ordered Chunling to show Zhuang Yumeng the white fungus in the box, and then handed it to Qianyu to put away.
"Alright, you can rest. If you need anything, let Qianyu tell me. Don't think you're bothering me." Qiao Xiya tucked the corner of the quilt for Zhuang Yumeng, and patted her hand gently, "Although I have never given birth, I know that it is very hard for a woman to get pregnant, you must not wronged yourself."
"Don't worry." Zhuang Yumeng smiled and nodded.
Out of the Zhuangyuan Mansion, Chunling looked behind her, and after making sure that there was no one else, she asked, "Why is the girl sighing?"
"Because the champion said that he didn't dare, not reluctantly." A hint of worry appeared on Qiao Xiya's face.
"It's not much of a difference, anyway, Miss Zhuang won't be bullied by their mother and son anymore, isn't that okay?" Chunling still doesn't quite understand.
"The reason why Yumeng won't be bullied anymore is that he didn't dare, this one didn't dare, because of my official authority, he was afraid that I would join him before driving and affect my career, so I didn't dare. It's not because Yumeng is his wife and pregnant with his child, and he is reluctant to let her be wronged." Qiao Xiya paused, looked back at the empty courtyard of the Zhuangyuan Mansion, and muttered, "I hope Yumeng can give birth to a child smoothly."
"Girl, let's go." Chunling helped Qiao Xiya into the carriage, Qiao Sanye waved his whip, and the carriage slipped away
Left the Champion Mansion.

"Quick, take one and stew it for me." Yun Qin, who returned to his room, threw away all the so-called manners, threw his two shoes in the house, went to bed cross-legged, and sat there commanding Qian Yu.
"This is ...... from Master Joe."
"Smack!" A crisp sound interrupted Qian Yu's words. Yun Qin's bare feet jumped off the bed and slapped Qian Yu in the face.
"You little! Have you forgotten who is in charge of this family?" Yun Qin's clan scolded sharply, "Get out and cook!"
"Yes......" Qianyu covered her face with tears in her eyes, and walked towards the kitchen with white fungus in her arms.
"Stop!" Yun Qin's clan shouted coldly to Qian Yu.
Qian Yu couldn't help but shudder and stopped.
"When it's done, bring me a bowl first, and then you add some water to the pot, boil it, and bring it to her. lest in the future, when she was pregnant, she never even drank a mouthful of white fungus soup, just like our family bullied her."
"Yes......" Qianyu bowed her head and left.
"Mother, if you are not busy in the afternoon, go buy some cinnabar and come back. The gentleman said it was almost time to go." Zhuang Yuan watched Qianyu enter the kitchen, then entered the house, and said in a low voice.
"Is this reliable?" Yun Qin's voice was lowered, and his eyes glanced out from time to time.
"Sir is a man who is proficient in witchcraft, so there will be no problem. She has eaten a lot of food in our family for so many years, and it would be a great loss if she didn't let her make good use of her prosperous life."
"That's it!" Yun Qin thought for a moment and said viciously, "Look at what she said today, isn't that the accusation that I didn't let her tell that girl? A yellow-haired girl still claims to be an adult, who knows if she's real or not!"
"Shhhhhh Zhuangyuan suddenly glanced nervously at the door, "Mother, don't say this kind of thing in the future. This Jin'an City is no better than Xianyang, there are more officials of all sizes, don't look at me as a champion, but in this Jin'an City, I am also a little higher than the eunuchs who swept the palace."
"Don't say it, don't say it." Zhuangyuan's words made Yun Qin's family a little afraid, she covered her mouth and glanced out of the door, and lowered her voice a little, "Don't worry, with her Wangfu, sooner or later you will be a big official above 10,000 people under that person!" Yun Qin looked at the champion with a smile.
"That's for later, let's get the matter in front of us first. The amount of cinnabar needed is a bit large, so it is best to buy it back multiple times, and buy a little less at a time, so as not to attract the attention of others. I have to go back to Hanlin Academy in the afternoon, don't forget about it."
"Got it, don't worry." The corners of Yun Qin's mouth rose, evoking a grim smile.
