The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 407 Entering the Palace (1)
It is said that since Xu Si'an left that day, he did not come back to the house for three or five days.Zhao Jing knew that he was busy with business, so she didn't dare to send people over often, but the steward Zhou of the outer court had letters from Xu Si'an every day, and if there were letters for Zhao Jing alone, someone would send them in.

Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching in the past few days, Zhao Jing ordered the stewards of the outer courtyard to prepare all the gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival. She was rarely free, and sent Mama Zhang and others to Gulou Street to collect Yuan Shi and Zhao Da Niu took it over.

The Yuan family and Zhao Yong are both honest and friendly common people, although Zhao Jing married Wu'anhou's mansion and reached the sky in one step.But after all, they didn't have the intention of achieving enlightenment alone, and they didn't come here often on weekdays.It was because Mrs. Xu was idle and bored, and when she remembered them, she sent someone to pick them up.

It's not that now that Yuan Shi is pregnant, she was naturally more careful in the first three months, so she didn't send anyone to pick her up. Now the old lady started to read again, and it happened that Zhao Jing hadn't seen them for some time, so she let her Mother Zhang went to pick it up.

Although Zhao Jing had a lot of things to do in the Hou Mansion, she never really forgot about them. In the summer, she asked the craftsmen of the Hou Mansion to go to Drum Tower Street to help Zhao Yong's family dig a cellar in the yard and transported a lot of them. The ice cellar passed.Otherwise, after the whole summer, poor people like them would be so hot that they would peel off their skin.

The maids lured Yuan Shi in, and Zhao Jing rushed to greet her. Yuan Shi also came to see Zhao Jing once after she knew she was pregnant, but the last time she came with Zhao Yong, she just sat in the outer courtyard Then he left, and didn't have time to inquire about his health.At this time, I took a closer look at Zhao Jing, and saw that although she looked good, she was a little thinner, and she was suffering from morning sickness, so she said distressedly: "The first child is like this, you just have to bear it." It will be better after a few months, besides, there is an old saying that those who grind mothers are all sons, I also felt very uncomfortable when I gave birth to the second tiger, and even though it was the first child when I gave birth to the eldest girl, I never felt so uncomfortable of."

Mrs. Xu is the one who loves to hear this, and she laughed when she saw what Yuan said: "I said the same thing. Girl Jing is weak, and she didn't take care of it before she became pregnant. At that time, I gave birth to three children in a row. , not as difficult as her."

Zhao Jing was also silent when she heard this, everyone's physique is different, and she belongs to the delicate category, so what can she do?But fortunately, the weather has cooled down in the past few days, and she feels much more comfortable, and can eat a few more mouthfuls of food every day.

"It doesn't matter, old lady. After all, my sister is not a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. She is the first child at this age. It is a bit difficult. After this child is born, the rest will be easier." Yuan Shi is also a person who has been here, and this is the third child, how could she not know.

Zhao Jing really wanted to say that in fact, early birth and early childbearing are not a good thing. Her current age is the best childbearing age determined by modern scientific research.But...it doesn't matter, as long as it makes the old lady happy, it's fine. After all, she has been busy finding a husband for Xu Xian recently, and the old lady Xu is also very worried.

In fact, among the few families that the old lady had her eyes on, there were also families with similar backgrounds and conditions.But when people heard that Xu Xian was only 14 years old, if they got married, they would have to wait a year before they could leave the cabinet, so they felt a little bit reluctant.The boys in those families are all grown up, and what's more, there is something bad. The old lady vaguely found out that there is already a roommate in the house!
There are also a few of Xu Si'an's subordinates, all of whom are generals' families. Although there are some with good conditions, the old lady is unwilling after all.As a result, Mrs. Xu sighed a lot when she thought of this matter in the past few days, but she had a lot of gray hairs.

Fortunately, Mrs. Yuan came over again today to chat with the old lady too much, which made her very happy.

"You don't know, I've been looking forward to this grandson in my heart, and I don't know how many years I have been looking forward to, and my life has been delayed until today." When Mrs. Xu mentioned this, she really sighed.People who are the same age as Xu Si'an, which family doesn't have three or five followers, but Xu Si'an doesn't have one, it's not that the old lady is anxious.

"It's better to be late than never. The old lady is rich! Otherwise, why would my sister get pregnant as soon as she came in! It's just a pain for Lord Hou!"

Yuan Shi usually speaks seriously, but who knows that when he meets an old lady who is not serious, his style of painting will be distorted all of a sudden, and he will suddenly say such a sentence.This time it was all right, Qi Jiahui, who was dozing off in the old lady Xu's arms, woke up, blinked and asked the old lady, "Old ancestor, why does my aunt have a baby and make my uncle suffer?"
