Chapter 323: Gradually Recovering
"Don't worry, mother. Brother Tai's smiling face makes everyone happy. My daughter is not afraid of his jokes!"
In one sentence, the scene became a lot more enjoyable.
After acknowledging their relatives and worshiping their ancestors, the most important purpose of this trip was achieved.
Because Gu Xiaochun and Gu Xiaoyun were both released from the palace when they were twenty-five years old, their marriage could not be delayed.
After the eldest aunt and the second aunt suddenly had this hope, they also became busy, looking around for suitable people.
When a bride comes to the door, she must be of similar age and have matching temperament and personality. To be honest, it is not easy to find, but you have to find her no matter how hard it is, so the Gu family is very lively now.
The matchmakers in the city came one after another, and it was very lively.
Du Jingyi took care of himself for almost twenty days and finally fell to the ground on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.
It had been a long time since I had landed, and my whole body felt numb.
Cherry was supporting her and then asked her to move to the stool. It was a little difficult at first to walk one step at a time, but she gradually felt better after she returned.
"It's like a child learning to walk. It's so embarrassing."
"Young lady, don't worry. Doctor Tan said that you are recovering well. After you go to the ground today, you will gradually return to normal. Once the fetal image is stable, you can even go to the lake to enjoy the flowers."
Listening to Cherry's words, Du Jingyi felt a lot of yearning.
After raising her for so many days, she felt that her body and children were much stronger, and she even ate more than before.
It's strange to say that when she was pregnant with Brother Tai, she could eat anything and had no taboos. But this time she was pregnant again, it was different. She would eat spicy food sometimes and sour food sometimes. I want to use something with a strong flavor.
Fortunately, she took Danruo with her when she went out, so it was easy for her to eat whatever she wanted without being hungry.
So, Yingtao supported her and walked around the room to build strength for her legs and feet. Then she saw Danruo coming over, carrying two large boxes in his hands. Although they were still covered, Du Jingyi I can already smell the fragrant smell.
Suddenly, his appetite was aroused and he asked quickly.
"What delicious food are you cooking today?"
Danruo smiled when he saw this, and his round face became more excited.
"Back to the young lady, I made vinegar-coated belly shreds and spicy chicken. I also served a shrimp and fish soup. I'm sure you can eat a few more bites with the rice."
Du Jingyi knew just from what he heard that today would be a day of feasting.
So he walked to the table and sat down, watching Danruo serve the food.
Sure enough, as soon as the food was served, Du Jingyi's stomach started to stir. He picked up the chopsticks, twisted a piece of the jealous belly and stuffed it into his mouth.
The fragrant taste lingered in her mouth, whetting her appetite immediately.
"Fortunately, Madam, the medicine has been used up, otherwise Dr. Tan would have said that you should avoid acidity and spicy food when taking medicine."
Cherry said remindingly, but Danruo glanced at Du Jingyi with a smile. She once secretly sent some sour plum jam to her young lady while Cherry was resting, and she was very happy.
God knows how uncomfortable it will be in your mouth if you eat light food every day.
Therefore, this became a secret between her and the young lady. If Cherry knew about it, I'm afraid she would be punished!
Du Jingyi twisted the chopsticks into the jealous belly several times, and then Du Jingyi said to Dan Ruo.
"This dish is good. I think the general will also like it. When he comes back for dinner in the evening, remember to make it again."
"Yes, Madam."
The new year is approaching, and she should be doing all the activities and socializing outside. However, due to her health, Mrs. Gu will take Gu Shaoyu and Brother Tai to visit relatives this year.
And she, the general's wife, has not shown her face in front of everyone since she came to Jinling City, so the outside world is very curious about her.
Du Jingyi also knew that there was no rush, so he calmed down, ate and drank well to stay healthy, and thought about waiting until the fetal image was stable.
She was almost finished when she saw her eldest aunt and her aunt Mrs. Xing coming over.
"Hey, your appetite is good. It seems that your illness is almost healed."
Aunt Mrs. Xing said jokingly as soon as she entered the door, which made Du Jingyi a little shy and asked immediately.
"Have eldest aunt and uncle eaten? Otherwise, I'll ask Danruo to make some more, and you guys can try it too, how about it?"
"I just came here after using it. I want to tell you something."
After hearing this, Du Jingyi nodded. The maids were busy collecting everything on the table, and then served tea and snacks. They were all made by Dan Ruo himself, so they tasted very good.
Mrs. Xing had seen Danruo's craftsmanship when she was in Sui'an City, so she didn't refuse at all. She ate half a piece of chestnut cake and then said.
"You girl's cooking skills are really nothing to say. It's nothing if you don't eat it. Once you eat it, it reminds me of my previous time in Sui'an City. It's unforgettable."
"My aunt loves to eat, so I'll pack some for her later. Anyway, Danruo can cook it every day, so just give her whatever you want to eat."
"Okay, you're welcome."
Du Jingyi smiled, there was no need to be polite to his family.
Compared to her aunt Mrs. Xing, who has a very good relationship with Du Jingyi, her eldest aunt is slightly less familiar with her. After all, she has been recuperating in Qiwu Courtyard since she came here and has never been out.
Based on a few visits, it is hard to say how deep their feelings are. It's just that they both know each other is a good person, that's all.
Therefore, she brought Mrs. Xing with her to talk about things today, just in case the two of them had a quarrel because of something they said wrong, and Mrs. Xing could also mediate.
So Du Jingyi asked.
"Aunt, what do you want to talk to me about? Just tell me."
"It's true that there is something. It's like this. Since you came here, you have been recovering from illness. People from outside always want to see you. I think it's annoying to have someone come today and someone come tomorrow. So I thought that after the 16th day of the first lunar month, I would just have a family dinner and invite all the relatives and friends in the family. By then, your pregnancy will be stable, and I will introduce it to everyone. What do you think?"
Aunt's suggestion was very reasonable, and Du Jingyi thought it was good.
But is it appropriate to tell others that she is pregnant so early? She was more concerned about this, so she spoke frankly.
"Let my aunt arrange the family dinner. Now it's at least 20 days after the 16th day of the first lunar month. My body is almost recovered. By then, the baby will be three months old. It's safe. But do I have to tell everyone at the dinner table?"
There is another bonus update today~
