Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 503 The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince

  The queen gave birth, and everyone inside and outside the palace was eagerly waiting for the news.

  Kangzhong, the protector of the country, was concentrating on copying scriptures in the study, Qin Tianye closed his eyes and rested in the Qingwen Hall, and moved the beads on his left wrist one by one with his fingers.

   Inside the Huachun Palace, Mrs. Huguo comforted her daughter softly and kept wiping the sweat from her forehead. Inside the Lijing Palace, Qin Xuejuan, the concubine Rong with a big belly, tugged at the handkerchief and walked restlessly in the house, constantly muttering, "People say lazy girl, lazy girl, the queen is a few days late for her baby. Just launched, it should be a princess, it must be a princess, it must be a princess…”

  The second princess Chai Huizhen, who was reading by the window, couldn't hear what the concubine was talking about, but seeing that she was walking around with her stomach stretched out, she persuaded her, "concubine mother, sit down and rest."

   "What do you know! Walk more now, and you will have a better life when you give birth!" Concubine Rong scolded her daughter. Being scolded, Chai Huizhen simply took the book back to Yujing Palace.

   Concubine Rong didn't care about her daughter, so she ordered a palace maid, "Go outside and have a look."

   "Yes." The little palace maid rushed out of the palace door to the imperial kitchen to pass meals to the concubine Rong, while her ears and eyes were watching the movements of Hua Chungong. When she came back from the imperial pantry, she heard the voice of the palace attendants shouting long live in unison from the Huachun Palace, and the little palace maid hurriedly knelt down and prayed nervously.

  The news came out soon after: The Empress gave birth to a son successfully! After the little palace maid kowtowed several times with Zixi, she quickly ran back to Lijing Palace.

   Grandma Zheng, who entered the palace to serve the concubine Rong from Duke Shen's mansion, heard the news and signaled the little palace maid to retire. Concubine Rong must have been very excited when she learned that the Empress gave birth. Mammy Zheng was afraid that she would be unable to resist, so she whispered to the little **** beside her, "Quickly go and invite the lady of the country."

  After the little **** left, Mammy Zheng told the palace people of Lijing Palace to keep their mouths shut. But such a big happy event as the queen gave birth, she couldn't hide it if she wanted to.

   "What? She gave birth to another son!" Concubine Rong's eyes widened in shock.

"The Empress gave birth to the third prince for Long Live. It's a big happy event. Don't be too happy, the body is important." Madam Zheng hurriedly supported Concubine Rong's arm, persuaded her gently, glared fiercely and knelt on the ground in panic. The pale little palace maid motioned for the **** to drag her down.

   Before waiting for the **** to make a move, Concubine Rong asked again, "How much is the child?"

   The little palace maid replied, "The third prince is six pounds and eight taels."

  Six pounds and eight taels? It is neither light nor heavy. In another month and a half, how big will my belly be, and how big will my emperor be? Concubine Rong stabilized her mind and asked again, "Long live, is it over?"

   Grandma Zheng glared at the little palace maid on the ground and said, "The queen gave birth, long live should be over, take the maiden"

   The little palace maid with her head bowed couldn't see Zheng Mama's face, and replied with a straight face, "Go back to the empress, as soon as the empress starts, Long Live will move to the Huachun Palace."

   It has been more than two hours since the Queen launched, and Long Live has been guarding the Huachun Palace! Concubine Rong's hand grabbed Madam Zheng's arm fiercely, gnashing her teeth in hatred. Mammy Zheng said quickly, "Niangniang, everything is not as important as the little prince in your womb."

   Concubine Rong took a deep breath and told herself to be steady, steady. At this moment, she trembled and said with a trembling voice, "Mummy, Ben Gong's stomach hurts so much, I'm afraid I'm going to give birth..."

  Mammy Zheng turned pale in shock, and hurriedly helped Concubine Rong back to the bedroom with the palace maid, hoping that it was a false alarm.

Hearing the news of the Empress' birth, Qin Tianye in the Qingwen Hall smirked and said a few words with Du Hai'an Xu and Wei She, and then exited the Qingwen Hall and whispered, "Send someone back to the palace, and let the madam enter the palace immediately. Take care of Concubine Rong."

"Yes."

   As soon as the guards withdrew, a little **** came hurriedly, knelt on the ground and hurriedly said, "Master Guo, Concubine Rong has started."

What? Qin Tianye grabbed the little eunuch's front and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

   The little **** was so frightened that his face was pale, and he shuddered to tell the story again, "Long live has ordered the imperial doctor of Hua Chungong to rush to Lijing Palace.

   Qin Tianye threw him on the ground, his face as gloomy as iron. How can his daughter be reassured by launching it a month and a half in advance!

  Queen Kang was the third child, and it only took two hours for the child to fall to the ground. Concubine Rong was the second child, but it was very difficult. She only gave birth to a fourth prince weighing five pounds and two taels on the second day when she was ugly.

  Two days in a row, Emperor Jinghe got two sons, the whole country celebrated, and the whole world was amnesty.

   After Jiang Erye got the good news, he and his third brother sighed, "Long live is really amazing, I got two more princes at once, and I have four sons."

   Jiang Huai also rejoiced for a few words, and then whispered, "The fourth prince was born prematurely, and the palace must be very nervous, so be careful to serve. Second brother must be very cautious when entering and leaving the yamen."

   Jiang Erye responded and asked in a low voice, "The little tree is born at six pounds and three taels, right?"

  Jiang Huai smiled and said, "The little tree can eat and sleep, and it has doubled in weight in five months, more than 13 pounds."

   "He is a blessed child. After he is born, it will be a better day in our house." After complimenting his nephew, Jiang Erye began to wonder how much the child who was born more than a month prematurely weighed.

   Jiang Huai speculated, "How much is five pounds?"

possible. Jiang Erye went to the front yard and asked the cook in the big kitchen, "How big is a piece of five catties of pork?"

  The cook immediately lifted the pork that was frozen in the deep well, and chopped off a large piece with two knives, "Second Master, this is five pounds."

   Jiang Erye turned his hands behind his back and stared at the lump of pork in front of him for a moment, then asked, "Put another pound or three on it."

  Click! The cook cut another knife, added a piece of meat the size of a palm, and put it on it.

   seems to be… about the same. Jiang Erye was relieved, turned around and walked out. The cook asked with a knife, "Second Master, what do you want to eat with this meat?"

   "If you don't eat it, put it back."

  The cook…

   Jiang Erye returned to the west courtyard and stared at his wife's belly. Jiang Liu, who was lying on the desk next to his mother, looked at his mother's belly, and then turned to look at his father. The mother is less than three months pregnant, and her lower abdomen is still flat. Daddy's eyes are straight, what is he thinking?

  Ya Zheng has long been used to her husband staring at his stomach in a daze, and asked with a smile, "What do you want for dinner, Second Master?"

   Jiang Erye shook his head, "You use it with the children, I have John Zhi and Wen Sheng drinking together tonight."

  Ya nodded in response.

  Jiang Liu held his little finger and said silently: Hanzhi is the character of Chai Yi'an, Wensheng is the character of Cao Yubao, and Dad's character is Zhongqing. Everyone here grows up with two names, and it's not too much trouble.

Jiang Erye looked at the cute little girl, raised his hand and pinched her chubby little face, giving birth to a sense of pride: when his baby girl came down, he weighed seven pounds and three taels, which was two pieces of pork more than five pounds. Woolen cloth!

  Although he didn't know why Daddy smiled at him like a spring flower, Jiang Liu also grinned and went back, "Dad eat less wine and come back earlier."
