Chapter 9 Goji Berry Pork Belly Soup

Early the next morning, Zhao Chen took his troops to the camp outside the city.Zhao Yuan rolled half a circle without touching anyone, and woke up by himself.

"Where's my father?" He sat up and asked, rubbing his eyes.

Li Qiu waited on him to put on his shoes, and said softly: "Mr. Lang went to inspect the military camp. Da Lang wants to eat court food with his wife today?" Zhao Yuan has been clingy since he was a child. Worried that Zhao Chen would not be able to surrender this little ancestor.Although the lady is not as majestic as the gentleman, Dalang is more or less tolerant towards the lady.

Zhao Xiaoyuan thought about it for a long time, and felt that eating alone was boring, and it happened that he hadn't gone to Fan's place for a while, as a woman, he had to coax him from time to time to improve his presence.

"Okay, then go talk to your mother first."

When he led a group of people to the Tangli Courtyard in a mighty way, Fan Yu just caught up with Fan Yu getting up early and feeling unwell.

Zhao Yuan was startled, climbed up on the couch and patted Fan Yu's back: "What's wrong with mother? Heat stroke?"

Panting for breath, Fan Yu tried to comfort him with a forced smile: "It's okay...it's probably because of a stomach upset, you should go aside quickly, don't let the smell overwhelm you."

"What are you talking about, mother!" Zhao Yuan disagreed, took water for Bisi, held it in his little hand and fed it to her: "Drink some water, take a few breaths to ease." Then he raised his head and asked Bisi: " Have you invited Doctor Qin to serve?"

Bisi saluted and said, "I invited you just now, it should be here soon."

Zhao Yuan saw that Fan Yu had slowed down, so he took advantage of the situation and asked Li Qiu to carry him to the bed.He sat down on the arhat bed beside him, looked at Fan Yu's pale face, and was a little worried. Could it be that what happened to Chuncao last night made the trouble?Mental state will also affect the body. For women, the mistress is a marriage killer, and few can remain indifferent.

Fan Yu saw Zhao Yuan's small face worried about the country and the people, although he was still a little uncomfortable, he was very moved.After all these years, it was not in vain to hurt him.

She said softly: "I'm fine, maybe it's because the weather is too stuffy and I didn't have a good rest at night."

In fact, after throwing up so much in the morning, the people around had guessed.Fan Yu herself has some ideas, but others don't know, but she knows about her own family affairs. In the palace, Wang Ji gave her the medicine to kill offspring. Although she was pregnant once, it was just a miscarriage and she never had it again. She really didn't dare Go to extravagance.

Physician Qin rushed over and helped Fan's veins immediately.He twirled his beard, his expression was a little uncertain, and it took a long time to hold his pulse, and finally he put his hand away, and said warmly: "Congratulations lady, it should be a happy pulse, but the month is a little shallower, it is less than two months, so be careful It's better to rest."

The whole room exploded, Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Fan Crying Only then did he send people out.

Zhao Yuan was also stunned.

His first reaction was, shit, for the first time in two lifetimes, he is going to have younger siblings!

After being lively for a long time, Fan came back to his senses, with a smile still on his face, and asked Bisi to make up money for Li Qiu, and gave out rewards to everyone in the room.The servants received the reward, kowtowed to her one by one, and said auspicious words.

Fan half-lyed on the couch, touched his still flat stomach, glanced at Zhao Yuan who was still sitting beside him, and immediately calmed down.I saw the little man staring at him blankly, with an expression of uncontrollable curiosity on his face.She couldn't help but feel soft, thinking that during this period of time, she must take care of the servants at home, and must not neglect Da Lang.

So she waved to Da Lang: "Da Lang, come to my side."

Zhao Yuan's hands were itching, so he jumped down with short legs and was about to run over, but Li Qiu stopped him and said seriously: "The lady is not stable yet, just ask Da Lang to look at it."

Fan's brows frowned, seeing Zhao Yuan's hesitant movements, he looked at Li Qiu with unfriendly eyes: "You are careful, but Da Lang is well-behaved and sensible, I am very relieved!"

Zhao Yuan glanced at Li Qiu secretly, and found that she didn't stop him anymore, but there was some unconcealable worry in her eyes.After all, his psychological age is older, and after thinking about it, he knew that Li Qiu was probably worried that something bad would happen, and Fan would blame him.

That was his second thought.

Father is about to have a child of his own.

He slowly walked up to Fan Shi, looked at her and asked, "Is my brother in mother's womb?"

Fan's expression was soft, and he held his little hand and stuck it to his stomach: "He is here, but he is still young. After a while, you will be able to feel him."

Zhao Yuan grinned and touched her belly again, with an expectant expression on his face.

It was already night when Zhao Chen knew about this.He and Lu Hui rode straight into the stable, threw the whip to the groom, and the two of them walked all the way to the study in the outer courtyard.

Lu Hui said in a low voice as she walked: "...This is also a happy event, but Dalang's Patriarch should also take care of it, otherwise the servants will watch the dishes, and I'm afraid it will make Dalang feel conflicted... Although the servants in the mansion don't know Dalang Lang was not born to you, but since ancient times, there is a world of difference between concubine and concubine... It’s fine if you are a young lady, but if you are a young gentleman, wouldn’t you worry about fighting with your wife in the future?”

Zhao Chen's heart was shocked, and his joy was greatly reduced, and it faded away.

He always thought that the Fan family would not have any more children. After waiting for these years, he had already begun to consider taking another concubine.Even in his consideration, it is better for a concubine to have children. Not only will Anu have a brother to rely on in the future, but the status of this brother is not as good as him, so he cannot be excluded.This idea is really too simple.

Lu Hui's words were too direct and unpleasant, but he had to listen to the honest words.

Fan was pregnant with his child, of course he was happy, but what did Anu think?His footsteps gradually slowed down, and his son's round face appeared in his mind, his eyes were black and bright, as clear as a pool of spring water, always looking silly at him.

He thought about it, and laughed again, his expression became very gentle.

Seeing this, Lu Hui breathed a sigh of relief.

The human heart is inherently biased.

When Dalang was still a baby, he was the first to hold him in his arms, and he was still smiling at him fat and white.Over the years, although he was just a retainer, Da Lang still remembered his birthday, made gifts for him with his own hands, and held a medicine bowl when he was sick. He regarded Da Lang as his own son from the bottom of his heart, so he was naturally worried. The head of the family neglects Dalang because of his own son.

Besides, what he said was also true.

When the two arrived at Puzhuo Garden, Huaixi Zhengyang had already brought out the ice basin, and made tea and brought it up.

They sat down in the host and guest seats. Seeing Zhao Chen hanging his head in thought, Lu Hui picked up the tea cup and drank it.

"After a while," Zhao Chen pondered for a moment, and said, "The courtyards of the Puzhuo Garden are too small. You should expand the courtyards first. After the courtyards are completed, let Da Lang officially move out."

Lu Hui nodded and nodded: "What the head of the family said is very true. Since Dalang has been enlightened, he should naturally live in the outer courtyard." In the outer courtyard, he can become independent, train his own manpower, and avoid disputes in the back house. Good method.

What he admired the most about his young patriarch was that he acted extremely decisively and without delay. Although sometimes he was a little less humane, but as a superior person, indecision is a big taboo. Apart from this, there are not many other minor shortcomings. hang on.

The two discussed some common affairs again, and it was already past half of the night.Zhao Chen was still in high spirits, but Lu Hui was almost a round older than him, and now he was already yawning and feeling sleepy.

Zhao Chen smiled slightly, stood up and said, "It's getting late, Hui, let's go back and rest."

Lu Hui hurriedly stood up to thank her.Speaking of which, a few years ago he accompanied Zhao Chen in marching in the rain, pulling out camps in the snow, staying up all day and night was common in the army, and he had never been as tired as he is now. Time is not forgiving.

When he arrived at the gate of the garden, Zhao Chen told the newly tuned boys Qingfeng and Langyue: "Both of you will take the car back with the teacher."

Lu Hui lived in a three-entry house in the back alley of Zhongjun Mansion, not far away, but he did not refuse Zhao Chen's kindness, saluted again, and followed Er Xiaotong away.

Zhao Chen entered the inner courtyard alone, but he didn't expect to see Yingge and Liuxi beside Fan standing by the roadside holding a lamp as soon as he passed the gate of the Moon Cave.

"Lang Junan," the two went forward to salute, Yingge said cautiously: "Madam asked this servant to ask Lang Jun, can he be placed in the inner courtyard tonight?"

Zhao Chen frowned slightly, and understood.

Originally, he planned to go to Tangliyuan to see Mrs. Fan, but he didn't want to make Mrs. Fan have unnecessary thoughts. Besides, he was more worried about Anu now than Mrs. Fan.

He said lightly: "I'll go see her tomorrow, you tell her not to wait, since she is pregnant, she should go to bed early." After speaking, he strode towards the corridor leading to the Osmanthus Garden.

Yingge and Liuxi were anxious, but they didn't dare to talk too much, so they straightened their necks, watching Zhao Chen's tall figure disappear into the depths of the corridor helplessly, and looked at each other.

Liuxi was anxious and frightened, sobbing: "Sister, what should we do? My lady sees that we didn't invite your husband, so what if I vent my anger on us?"

Yingge bit her lip, and said simply: "Are you in a hurry? If Mr. Lang wants to go, can we still drag him there!" She reminded again in a low voice, "The matter of Chuncao is over, let's do our best It's your duty to be careless, and if you look like this, people will wonder if you are guilty of a thief!"

Liuxi almost jumped up, and managed to suppress her voice and said, "Who are you talking about guilty conscience! I'm not that kind of person!" As she spoke, tears came down, and she wiped her eyes and whispered: "You don't know, I'm going to I heard Mrs. Wang over there say that she was sick... She was fine last night, why did she get sick—”

"Hush!" Yingge covered her mouth, looked around and was relieved. It was a hot day, and cold sweat dripped down her neck.Her voice was hurried, almost whispering: "She is sick, it is her own crime, what has it to do with us? You have time to listen to that ear, you might as well please your lady, otherwise she will not like you one day, look at you Where will the end be better!"

Liuxi was so scared that she turned pale, nodded obediently, wiped away her tears, and didn't dare to talk anymore.

The two little maidservants tremblingly carried the lanterns and walked away slowly.

When Fan Yu heard that Zhao Chen was not coming, he patted his belly and was silent for a while, with no expression of joy or anger on his face, but made the two people in front of him feel agitated and uneasy.

"Forget it," Fan Yuchang let out a long breath, and waved his hands lazily, "Get up, come and fan me, it's still so hot at night..."

Bisi and Yingge glanced at each other, they both heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly went to both sides of the bed to play fans.With the cool breeze, Fan Yu's face softened, and he squinted his eyes to rest his mind.She didn't sleep until this hour, and she really didn't feel sleepy.

She was naturally upset that Zhao Chen didn't come, but it's the same when he comes tomorrow.

She doesn't need to be valued by men, but her child must be valued by Zhao Chen.

"Miss."

Fan Yu opened his eyes and saw Bisi coming in with a food box, holding out a bowl of soup.

She smiled and said: "Lady, I watched the cook cook wolfberry and pork belly soup. It is the most nourishing for the fetus. You can drink some before going to sleep."

After tossing and tossing until now, Fan Yu was also a little hungry, so she nodded and motioned for her to bring it over.

The author has something to say:

A few gossips: I am very worried that some people will think that Zhao's father is a scum.But this article is written from a male point of view. In fact, both he and Fan Yu have no feelings for each other, more like living together.It's just that social status determines that Zhao's father has greater freedom, so he can ignore Fan Yu, but Fan Yu must have Zhao's approval in order to gain a foothold in the back house. This is already a kind of inequality.

Since it is from the perspective of Father Zhao, it is inevitable that there will be his subjective thoughts...
