Queen's Development

Chapter 153 The Stormy Storm (4)

Seeing this, Lin Jia hurriedly looked at Yu Zhi: "What's wrong?"

Yu Zhi hurriedly said: "I smell this fish soup and feel a bit fishy!"

She felt quite uncomfortable, so she got up and went out, stood on the porch to enjoy the cool breeze for a while, and found Jin'er came out holding a tureen containing fish soup, it seemed that Lin Jia didn't drink the fish soup.

Yu Zhi was about to ask, but felt nausea again, so she didn't ask.

Lin Jia came out and asked her in a low voice: "Is it better? I'll ask someone to ask Mr. Liu to come and check your pulse!"

Yuzhi smiled, and said softly: "It's okay, it's just that I feel sick all of a sudden, it will be fine after a while!"

Lin Jia said "Mm", took Yuzhi in her arms, and stood with her on the porch to blow the air.

It has been raining for a while, and it finally cleared up today, but the wind picked up again at night.

At this time, the wind was whistling, as if it wanted to hang up all the branches and branches of the flowers and trees in the courtyard.

Yuzhi blew the wind for a while and felt much better. She was afraid that Lin Jia would be weak and get sick again, so she pestered Lin Jia back home.

After washing up, Yuzhi changed her bed skirt and went back to the bed, and lay down.

After a while, Lin Jia washed up and came back.

He got on the bed and leaned over to kiss Yuzhi.

Yuzhi felt a faint worry in her heart, so she pushed Lin Jia away, muttering: "Ajia, I'm tired..."

Lin Jia is not a person with particularly strong desires. Since Yuzhi was tired, he hugged Yuzhi and closed his eyes, and began to think about those trivial matters, trying to calm down the restlessness in his body.

It's already November now, his net has been open for so long, it's time to close it...

After thinking for a while, Lin Jia's body finally calmed down.

He sniffed Yuzhi's fragrant hair, and fell asleep not long after.

Yuzhi was woken up by the sound of wind and rain at night—the sound of the wind whimpering outside and the sound of rain pattering. Lying in the warm bedroom, she seemed to be able to feel the damp and cold air outside.

Lin Jia's warm and slender hands were placed on her lower abdomen, and she was sleeping soundly on her side.

Yuzhi lay there thinking about her retching at night, her thoughts wandered, and for some reason, she remembered her childhood.

She remembered that when she was a child, a woman in the village retched in public, and everyone would laugh: "Is it possible that she is pregnant?"

Yuzhi thought to herself: Am I pregnant too?

Thinking about it this way, she herself felt that it was ridiculous.

Although Lin Jia has been anxious to get her pregnant, and every time she finishes, she has to put a brocade pillow under her body, but how can she get pregnant so quickly?Get pregnant if you want?
Thinking of this, Yuzhi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and smiled silently.

It was stormy outside, Yu Zhi buried her face in Lin Jia's arms, her heart was full of warmth and happiness - this man with not a big chest, even a weak body, was her favorite person...

The next day was still bright, and Lin Jia was about to go to court.

After getting dressed, he whispered to Yuzhi: "Last night you felt a little unwell, don't get up so early in the morning, get some more sleep! If you feel unwell, send someone to invite Mr. Liu immediately..."

Yuzhi had never seen Lin Jia being so verbose, she immediately smiled and said softly, "Well, I'll listen to you!"

After listening to Yuzhi's words, Lin Jia felt that her heart was very tight, she reached out and touched Yuzhi's head, and said, "Good boy!"

After all, he Shi Shiran left.

Yuzhi: "..."

Although Lin Jia is 19 years old, in her eyes, Lin Jia is still very young. It feels so out of harmony to be touched by Lin Jia's head and say "be good"!

She lowered her head and smiled, followed Lin Jia out of the room, stood on the porch and watched Lin Jia in an oilskin cloak take Aqing and Achi who came in to pick him up and strode away.

It was still raining at this time, but the rain was not too heavy, but the wind was still a little strong.

Yuzhi stood on the porch, looking at the wet branches of flowers and trees outside, thinking deeply.At this moment, she felt her body sinking, and turned her head to see that it was Han Lin who took a cloak and put it on her body.

Han Lin looked at the gray and wet sky, and said, "Auntie, it's cold outside, let's go back!"

Yuzhi agreed and followed Han Lin back.

Two days later, Yuzhi was reading in the inner study, and Jin'er brought Lan Zhen's wife, Mrs. Qin, and Mrs. Yuwen to come.

Yuzhi put down the book with a smile and went out to welcome her.

Mrs. Lan wore a red feather gauze cloak, her hair was full of pearls and emeralds, and she was leading a maidservant in green clothes; Mrs. Yuwen was wearing a plain white bamboo pattern cloak, and she was leading a strong maidservant, who was holding a box wrapped in a bundle in her hand.

Yuzhi welcomed them into the bright room, and sat down as guests and hosts.

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Lan said with a smile: "Sister Yu, I brought you some snacks, try them and see how they taste!"

Mrs. Lan's maid presented an exquisite box, and several snacks were neatly arranged inside after opening.

Yuzhi didn't dare to eat anything outside, so she ordered Han Lin to take it, and said with a smile: "Sister, I don't know, I get heartburn when I eat sweets these days, I'll put them away first, and try again when I feel better! "

Madam Lan laughed.

Mrs. Yuwen wiped the corner of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and smiled subtly: "Sister Yu, I brought you a gift too!"

She and her servant girl unpacked their bags, and walked forward holding a large and exquisite box.

Han Lin glanced at Yuzhi, saw Yuzhi nodding slightly, took it, put it on the small huanghuali wood kang table beside Yuzhi, and pressed the message.

The moment the box was opened, the eyes of four of the six people in Mingjian lit up—the box was full of precious stones!
Yuzhi's heart beat fast for a moment, and then she calmed down again - Mrs. Yuwen must have asked for such a heavy gift!
She smiled slightly, and looked at Mrs. Yuwen playfully: "Madam, this gift is too heavy, I can't accept it!"

Mrs. Lan sat on the side, her heart was greatly shocked - what is Mrs. Yuwen doing?Could it be that she has something important to ask Aunt Yu, which is why she made such a generous offer?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Lan felt a little restless.

Mrs. Yuwen smiled slightly, and said: "Sister Yu, there is no need to refuse, these gems look dazzling, but they are not worth a lot of money, they are just playthings!"

Yuzhi was determined not to accept it. She didn't want to affect Lin Jia's career because of her greed, so she closed the box and told Han Lin: "Return the gift to Mrs. Yuwen!"

Mrs. Yuwen wanted to wait, but Yuzhi said again: "I'm a little tired, I will post a post in a few days to invite the two sisters to come and play!"

Han Lin smiled and stuffed the box to the maid brought by Mrs. Yuwen.

Mrs. Lan was quite embarrassed, so she had to drag Mrs. Yuwen who was still talking, "Let's talk!"

Mrs. Yuwen didn't achieve her goal on this trip, so she originally wanted to talk about it, but seeing Yuzhi's attitude was so firm, and she made it clear that if she pestered her again, she would no longer save face, so she had to go out with her maid and gifts.

The exquisite carriage drove out of the Lin residence.

Mrs. Lan specially got into Mrs. Yuwen's carriage, with an unhappy expression on her face: "If you really want to bribe Aunt Yu, why do you do it in front of me? Such an ugly scene, I will have no face to see Aunt Yu again!"

Mrs. Yuwen held her hand, with regret on her face: "My sister, I was reckless... I just want our master to go one step further, who knows... Sigh!"

She pulled out a butterfly love flower hairpin inlaid with rubies inlaid with golden silk from her bun, put it on Mrs. Lan's bun with a smile, and said softly: "Sister, forgive me, sister will make amends to you!"

Mrs. Lan Zhen has long been fond of those luxurious jewelry that Mrs. Yuwen often wears on her hair bun. Now that she has this, she still has some shortcomings in her heart, so she deliberately keeps her face straight.

Mrs. Yuwen sneered in her heart, but her face was full of worry and guilt. She took off the red gold bracelet inlaid with rubies from her snow-white wrist, put it on Mrs. Lan's wrist lightly, and said: "Sister, please forgive my sister!"

Only now was Madam Lan satisfied, and said with a charming smile, "You can't do this in the future, you have to discuss it with me in advance, you understand?"

Mrs. Yuwen timidly agreed.

After sending Mrs. Lan home, Mrs. Yuwen's carriage drove directly to Han Qing's mansion.

Han Qing met Mrs. Yuwen in the outer study.

He pondered for a moment, looked up at Mrs. Yuwen, and found that her eyes were burning, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and said, "Will she not accept it?"

Mrs. Yuwen looked at Han Qing with sparkling eyes: "I tried and tried, but Aunt Yu just refused to accept... She doesn't seem to be interested in these things."

A pensive look appeared on Han Qingqingjun's face, and he said after a while: "She likes books, jewelry, rouge and gouache, and food, but she can't accept expensive gifts, for fear of affecting Lin Jia's career."

Mrs. Yuwen noticed the affection contained in Han Qing's words, her heart was sour, and she didn't say a word.

After a while, Han Qing sighed: "Okay, let's go down!"

Mrs. Yuwen gave Han Qing a pleading look in her eyes, and saw that he lowered his head in thought and didn't look at her. She felt a pain in her heart and retreated slightly.

In the evening Lin Jia returned to Tingsong Courtyard and had dinner with Yuzhi.

Jin'er and Han Lin came in with food boxes and began to set meals.

Yuzhi took Lin Jia's hand and walked out of the bedroom to watch dinner tonight.

Jin'er happened to take out a plate of tamales from the food box, and said, "Auntie, this is my mother's special steamed dish of tamales for you. This dish is fat but not greasy, and it is very fragrant!"

Yuzhi smelled the rich meaty aroma of steamed pork, and suddenly felt nauseous, and immediately retched.

Lin Jia hurriedly ordered: "Take out this steamed pork!"

Jin'er jumped and hurriedly sent it out.

Lin Jia gently stroked Yuzhi's back to help her calm down, and at the same time told Han Lin: "Go and ask Mr. Liu to come here!"

Yuzhi covered her mouth with a handkerchief and retched a few times, but nothing came out.

Lin Jia supported Yuzhi and sat down on the armchair, still stroking Yuzhi's back slowly.

After a while, Han Lin hurried over with Mr. Liu.

After reading the pulse, a smile appeared on Mr. Liu's face, and he looked up at Lin Jia: "My lord, Aunt Yu is pregnant!"

When Lin Jia heard this, her mind immediately went blank, she had nothing, and she didn't think about anything.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Jia looked at Mr. Liu with a trembling voice, "What did you say?"

Mr. Liu was used to the stupidity of countless men when they found out that their wives were pregnant, so he didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "My lord, Aunt Yu is pregnant!"

Lin Jia closed her eyes, her body trembled slightly, and her heart was full of sadness——Yu Zhi was really pregnant and had his child!

A dazed smile appeared on his handsome face, and he looked at Yuzhi with moist phoenix eyes: "Yuzhi, we have a baby!"

Yuzhi's eyes were also moist.

After sending Mr. Liu away, the maids also retreated.

Lin Jia walked to Yuzhi's side and sat down next to Yuzhi.

He hugged Yuzhi tightly, put his face close to Yuzhi's, and said for a long time: "Yuzhi, I will go to the palace to see Your Majesty tomorrow morning!"

Yuzhi gently pushed him away, smiled slightly, and said softly, "Are you awake?"

Because only when she is awake, Lin Jia will think of going to see Emperor Yongtai, and then use this news to exchange benefits from Emperor Yongtai!
Lin Jia smiled sheepishly, and ordered Jin'er to remove all the meat dishes. Seeing that Yu Zhi used some green rice porridge and ate a vegetarian steamed stuffed bun, she was more satisfied.

Yuzhi saw that Lin Jia was wearing a moon-white brocade robe embroidered with silver cloud patterns, with a black jade belt around her waist, and the jade tree was facing the wind, which was more compatible with Yan Junqiao, but she stared blankly at her eating dinner, and couldn't help laughing: "Ajia, you also Use some!"

Lin Jia was too excited and had no appetite at all. He took a sip of tea, kept looking at Yuzhi, and the corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily, looking like he was going crazy.

After a while, Lin Jia whispered: "Yuzhi, tomorrow is Han Qing's night duty at the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."

After laying it out for so long, he is finally going to close the net!

Yuzhi's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and said immediately, "Ajia, I'm waiting for your good news!"

It turned out that this was the main reason why Lin Jia entered the palace!
