Chapter 571 Lantern Festival
The jujube trees that have lost their leaves are covered with fluffy and shiny silver bars. The green pines at the four corners of the house are covered with fluffy and heavy snowballs.
Licorice accompanied Yuxi to walk slowly in the corridor, and now Yuxi has increased from five laps to six laps. Every time after walking, Yuxi is covered in sweat.
Meilan watched the beads of sweat slipping from Yuxi's forehead, and said worriedly: "Princess, why don't you take a break before you go!" Yuxi walked six laps in a row, not just stopping and resting before leaving. of.
Licorice said to Meilan: "Mammy said, you can't stop, you must finish walking before you can rest." Seeing Yuxi like this made her feel uncomfortable, but Mammy Quan still had to obey her words. Because the whole mother is for the good of the princess.
After six laps, Yuxi was so tired that she sat on the chair and panted heavily. In the past, let alone six laps, even sixty laps were not a problem.
But now, Yuxi looked down at her much bigger belly, and sighed slightly. Ever since he was able to eat meat, his stomach felt like he was blown out, getting bigger day by day. Now more than four months pregnant is comparable to other people's six months old. In the past, she also envied those who were pregnant with twins, but now she is pregnant with twins, which is a kind of torture for pregnant women.
After resting for a quarter of an hour, Yu Xi went to clean the room. After wiping her body and changing her clothes, Sister Quan started to massage her. Because Aunt Quan is so good at handwork, Yuxi would fall asleep every time after massaging. This day was no exception, Yuxi fell asleep again after massaging.
Sister Quan went to look for Mother Lan, and said with a sad face: "The child is only four months old now, and it will definitely be bigger in two months. At that time, I am worried that the princess will not be able to walk, and she will have to be supported .”
Mother Lan said: "If you can't walk, you have to walk. If you don't move around much, it will be difficult during delivery." The reason for suffering now is for a smooth delivery.
Sister Quan gave a wry smile and said nothing more. Seeing Yuxi suffer such a crime, she felt very distressed. If I had known it earlier, I would have urged Yuxi to drink the Bizi soup that day.
In a blink of an eye, it is the Lantern Festival. Liu'er knew that Zaozao would go to see the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, so she said to Yuxi, "Mother, I want to go to the lanterns with my sister." When she heard Zaozao talk about the lively scene of the Lantern Festival, she was very yearning. After waiting for a year, I finally got my chance.
Yuxi thought about what she promised Liu'er to take her to see the lanterns last year, and said to Yunqing: "He Rui, take Liu'er to see the lanterns at night!" She dare not go out of the yard now, let alone go out.
Seeing Liu'er looking at him eagerly, Yun Qing nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll take Liu'er to see the lanterns tonight. But in this way, you and Ah Hao will be left at home."
Before Yuxi could speak, Ah Hao, who was held in Yunqing's arms, suddenly called out loudly: "Father..."
Yun Qing was shocked, and then realized that it was Qi Hao who called him. Yun Qing was overjoyed immediately, and said: "This kid finally spoke." Because Zao Zao was only over a year old before calling, Qi Hao didn't speak until now, and neither Yun Qing nor Yu Xi was in a hurry. Unexpectedly, this kid gave them an unexpected surprise today.
Yuxi smiled and said: "The words are clear, I don't know that I thought I practiced it many times!" When Zao Zao called people, Yuxi corrected her words many times, not to mention Liu'er.
Yun Qing was a little suspicious, and said to Yu Xi: "Ah Hao called me right now, does he also want to see the lanterns?"
Yuxi laughed, and said: "He is a one-year-old child who knows what lanterns are? But boys need to go outside more often. He Rui, let's take Qihao with him at night!" If others let Qihao go out, She is definitely worried. But to Yunqing, Yuxi is not worried at all.
Yun Qing nodded in agreement, but he thought about bringing more guards with him then. After all, it would be safer to bring more people with these two children.
As for Zao Zao, with Huo Changqing around, he doesn't need to worry.
This day, because I had to go out, dinner was half an hour earlier than usual. Liu'er changed into a red jacket wearing flowers and butterflies sprinkled with gold, and she wore this pleated skirt. Because I was still young, I wore a two-ring bun with coral strings wrapped around it. Liu'er was already very good looking, but with such a special dress, she looked like a little fairy sitting down with the Queen Mother.
Liu'er has also reached the age of Aimei now, and as soon as she entered the room, she asked Yuxi: "Mother, do I look good in this dress?"
Yuxi smiled and said: "It looks good, no matter what clothes our Liu'er wears, she looks good." Liu'er looks good, and she looks beautiful in any clothes. But the child is young, so most of the clothes Yuxi made for her were brightly colored clothes.
The mother and daughter were talking, and Zao Zao also came over. As soon as he walked into the room, he said to Yuxi, "Mother, I'm back."
Looking at Zao Zao's attire, Yu Xi felt a little headache, and said, "Will you wear this when you go to see the lantern later?"
Zao Zao often fell to the ground when she was practicing, so the clothes Yuxi made for her were divided into two categories. One is specially for her to wear when practicing, which are black and azurite and other dark-colored clothes that are resistant to dirt; the other is bright-colored dresses like Liu'er. Unfortunately, Zao Zao hasn't worn a skirt since practicing martial arts. This time, Zao Zao was wearing a pair of azure-colored bunt clothes.
Zao Zao looked down at the clothes she was wearing and said, "Mom, I just changed my clothes and they are very clean!" In Zao Zao's eyes, as long as the clothes are clean, nothing else is to be chosen.
Yuxi supported her forehead, and said to Shaoyao: "Go get a set of clothes for the eldest girl."
How could Zaozao not know what Yuxi was going to do, and hurriedly said: "Mom, I don't want to wear a skirt, it's not convenient at all to walk in a skirt." I'm used to walking with big strides, and if I walk fast in a skirt, I will fall down. Zao Zao fell once before, so she didn't want to wear a skirt anymore.
Seeing that Yu Xi was unmoved, Zao Zao said again: "Mother, I heard that there are many kidnappers on the lantern. If the kidnappers try to kidnap me for me, they could have run away, but they can't even if they wear skirts. "After finishing speaking, she looked at Yu Xi with a sad face.
Looking at the jujube, which was almost as dark as charcoal, the corners of Yuxi's mouth twitched, and said: "Don't worry, the kidnapper will only look for good-looking children, and will not set your mind on it." Because she knew that Zao Zao had a big heart and would not take these words to heart, otherwise Yu Xi would not say such things.
Zaozao's mind turned quickly, she turned her head to look at Liu'er and said loudly, "Mother, my sister looks so good-looking, the kidnapper will definitely pick her up. Mother, I can't protect my sister if I wear a skirt." After saying this, Zao Zao said to Liu Er: "Sister, you don't know what a kidnapper is, do you? A kidnapper is a bad person who kidnaps beautiful children. After they kidnap those beautiful children, they hide them first After the rumors passed, they were sold to dirty places such as brothels..." In fact, Zao Zao didn't know where the brothels were, she just heard Xu Daniu and the others say so.
Seeing that Liu'er's face turned pale with fright, Yu Xi hurriedly stopped drinking Zao Zao: "Your sister is timid, don't scare her." Liu'er has been in the inner courtyard, unaware of the darkness outside. On the contrary, Zao Zao knows a lot about the outside world.
Liu'er was indeed frightened, and took Yu Xi's hand and said, "Mom, I'm not going." No matter how beautiful the outside is, if she is kidnapped, she won't be able to return home.
Yuxi stroked Liu'er's head and said, "Don't be afraid, your father will protect you." Liu'er is so timid because she always lives in the inner courtyard and has never seen the world. So Yuxi wanted her to go out and walk more.
After hearing this, Zao Zao raised her voice and said: "Sister, don't be afraid, with me and dad protecting you, those kidnappers will definitely not dare to attack you." If the kidnappers don't have eyes and dare to attack Liu Er, she will beat them to the full looking for teeth.
Looking at Zao Zao's confident expression, Yu Xi's heart sank. Self-confidence is a good thing for children, but overconfidence is conceited. Yu Xi thought about reminding Huo Changqing that Zao Zao should not become conceited.
After dinner, Yunqing said to Yuxi: "Qihao is too young, so I won't take him with him. It won't be too late to take him out after two years." Xu Wu knew that Yunqing wanted to take Qihao out strongly be opposed to. Qi Hao is too young, in case of assassination, even if Yun Qing has a high status and many guards, it will be very dangerous.
After listening to Yunqing's explanation, Yuxi was a little afraid: "I didn't think carefully about this matter, and I really shouldn't let Qihao go. If something happens, I won't be able to live at that time." Before pregnancy, Yuxi Emotions and anger are invisible. But since she was pregnant, Yuxi's mood has changed a lot, and she burst into tears when she was unhappy. If Yunqing said that Liu'er likes to cry so much, he definitely looks like Yuxi.
Yun Qing hurriedly said: "Nonsense, they will be fine with me." He didn't let Qi Hao go with him, because he was worried that some assassins would scare the child. No matter how daring Qi Hao is, he is only a one-year-old child.
Because of concerns, Yu Xi no longer forced Zao Zao to change into a skirt. As Zao Zao said, it is really dangerous, and it is not convenient to run while wearing a skirt.
After eating, Yunqing took the two children out. Because of Xu Wu's words, Yunqing brought twelve guards this time for the sake of the child's safety.
Yu Xi sat on a chair and said to Aunt Quan: "Since she was pregnant, her mind has not been so clear. What Xu Wu can think of, I can't think of it."
Sister Quan said: "You are mentally weak, it's normal to be thoughtful before you think about things. Actually, if Lord Xu hadn't told the prince about this, I wouldn't have let Qihao watch any lanterns." Sister Quan said, It is understandable for Yuxi to be inconsiderate. The point is that Yun Qing didn't even think about the assassination, he was really careless. In other words, it's not that Yunqing didn't expect it, it's just that he is too confident in himself.
Yuxi said: "Nurse, if there is anything inappropriate in the future, just tell me."
Sister Quan said: "The most important thing for you now is to take care of your baby with peace of mind, and don't worry about the rest." Yu Xi's safe delivery of the baby is her greatest expectation. (to be continued)
