save the bachelors

Chapter 4741 [Shi Xiangyun]

In a blink of an eye, a month passed, and under Xiang Nan's care, the health of Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian recovered to their best condition.

Half a month later, Wang Xifeng became pregnant.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Jia family was filled with joy.

Because the prosperity of a family depends not only on power and status, but more importantly on offspring. The proliferation of offspring is a sign of the prosperity of the family, so any family attaches great importance to the issue of offspring.

Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng have been married for five years but have no children. Not only do they face considerable pressure, but even Jia Mu, Jia She, Jia Zheng and others can't help but worry.

Now that Wang Xifeng is successfully pregnant, everyone in the mansion is naturally very happy.

In order to take care of the fetus in Wang Xifeng's belly, Xiang Nan specially wrote a book, explaining how to take care of pregnant women, with specific rules for movement, sitting, lying, eating and entertainment.

For example, in terms of diet, we should pay attention to balanced nutrition, but also avoid many things, such as fish, shrimp, cold drinks, watermelon, fungus, pickles, ginseng, astragalus, wine, etc.

After reading this book, everyone in the Jia family broke out in cold sweats.

If Xiang Nan hadn't reminded them, they would have had no idea about these taboos.

"It turns out that you can't drink alcohol after you get pregnant, and you can't eat ginseng or donkey-hide gelatin for nourishment. I thought ginseng and donkey-hide gelatin were good things."

"It turns out that you can't eat fish or shrimp when you're pregnant. I thought turtle was a good thing."

"It turns out that you can't eat pickles and drink less sugary drinks after you get married. I thought pregnant women had to drink more sugary drinks."

Jia Mu, Wang Furen, Xing Furen, You Shi and others were all very moved. Xiang Nan's book really taught them a lot of knowledge.

Afterwards, Xiang Nan's book was not only circulated in the Jia Mansion, but was also copied by many wealthy families in the capital. Even Yuanchun specially sent a eunuch to ask for a copy.

After all, this is a medical book passed down by gods. It is more precious than "Thousand Golden Prescriptions" by Medicine King Sun Simiao and "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" by Medical Saint Zhang Zhongjing. Anyone who knows the value of it will not miss it.

……

"Hmph, you guys seemed to be having so much fun these days that you didn't even remember to find someone to pick me up. I'm now left alone so bored." That day, Shi Xiangyun came to visit the Jia Mansion and complained to Sanchun, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai and others.

Shi Xiangyun is the eldest daughter of the Shi family, so she should be called Aunt Jia.

Because she was the only legitimate daughter of the Shi family and her parents died when she was young, Grandmother Jia was particularly sympathetic to her. She was often brought up to be raised since she was a child, and she spent half a year in the Jia family every year.

"Hey, I've been busy building the garden these days, and my second and third sisters are learning to manage the household with my eldest sister-in-law, so there's no time for fun." Xiang Nan explained, "If I bring you here, there's nothing to play with either."

"Hmph, stop teasing me. I heard that you made up a great story and everyone was fascinated by it." Shi Xiangyun snorted, "Now that I'm here, you can tell me your story too."

"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded. Wang Xifeng was pregnant now and was recuperating at home. Jia Lian's work had been completed, so Xiang Nan returned the supervisor's job to him, and therefore he had plenty of time now.

"Actually, Sister Bao and Sister Lin have heard it. You can also ask them to tell you about it." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Of course you can, but everyone says that you tell the story the best." Shi Xiangyun smiled and said, "I love you so much, brother. Please tell me about it."

"You love to talk with a lisp. You can't even call me 'Second Brother', but just 'Love Brother', 'Love Brother'. Come back and play Go, and it's time for you to say 'Love Three, Four, Five' again." Lin Daiyu laughed when she saw this.

"I just hope that you will have a brother-in-law Lin who bites his tongue tomorrow, and you will hear 'ai' and 'er' all the time. Amitabha, that's what I see now!" Shi Xiangyun also laughed, and immediately made Lin Daiyu blush, and she stepped forward to grab Shi Xiangyun and beat her.

……

Afterwards, Xiang Nan told Shi Xiangyun the story of The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Shi Xiangyun was fascinated and obsessed with it. Even Sanchun, Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu and others, who had heard it before, found it still very interesting when they heard it again.

Shi Xiangyun had originally planned to stay at the Jia Mansion for only five days this time, but because Xiang Nan told such a good story, she stayed for seven days before leaving.

Before leaving, he told Xiang Nan, "Second brother, think about me more and pick me up to play often. I'm too bored at home alone."

"Don't worry, my dear sister." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "By the way, since you are afraid of loneliness, I will give you a roll of parchment, and then the sisters can chat together."

"How can we chat on paper?" Shi Xiangyun asked puzzledly.

Xiang Nan then demonstrated it.

This is a magic prop he developed in the Harry Potter world.

Cast magic like Transfiguration on the parchment, and when words appear on one parchment, words will also appear on the parchments of other people at the same time, just like chatting in a QQ group.

The only difference is that one is handwritten and the other is typed on a keyboard. In addition, the writing on the parchment will automatically disappear after a period of time, so there is no need to worry about having no place to write.

"Hmph, why did you give it to me so late? " Shi Xiangyun fell in love with it as soon as she saw it, and then complained.

She thought Xiang Nan had already given the parchment to Sanchun, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu, and only gave it to her now, so she was a little dissatisfied.

"Sister Yun, don't complain. You are the first one to get the parchment." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "The other sisters didn't get it."

"Really?" Shi Xiangyun looked at Sanchun, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu and said.

The three springs nodded together, "None of them were given to us, Sister Yun, you are the first one."

"Really? This is the first time I know of such a thing. The methods of the immortals are indeed extraordinary." Xue Baochai nodded.

"Yes, he didn't give it to me, but gave it to you first." Lin Daiyu said.

"Hehe, that's good enough. You should contact me more often." Shi Xiangyun said happily.

……

After Shi Xiangyun left, Sanchun, Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu and others began to chat with her using parchment.

The two young Shi Hou families only gave birth to boys, not girls. Shi Xiangyun was the only daughter among the younger generation of the Shi family, so she usually had no playmates and was very lonely.

That's why Grandmother Jia loved her so much that she would take her home to live every two or three days.

Now that she had the parchment sent by Xiang Nan, although she could not come to the Jia Mansion, she could still chat with her sisters, which naturally relieved a lot of loneliness. Therefore, Shi Xiangyun liked it very much and often chatted until late at night.

However, this was also criticized by the two aunts.

As girls grow up, they should spend more energy on knitting and needlework, and should not just play every day.

The Shi family's situation was the same as that of the Jia family before them, with expenses exceeding income and having to live beyond their means.

Therefore, in order to save money, the historian closed the sewing room, and all the clothes, shoes, and embroidery were made by his own family.

In ancient times, the clothes of wealthy families were all embroidered, which not only tested skills, but also took a lot of time and energy. Adults were tired of knitting at home all day, not to mention that Shi Xiangyun was still a child and was even more unwilling to be restricted, so a conflict broke out.
