Tan’er said, "Nanny Wan, Elder Sister is a doctor! How could she not know what morning sickness is?"
Nanny Wan slapped her forehead, "Oh dear, look at me! I got so excited I forgot the young lady is a doctor!"
Meng Qianqian smiled, "Other than being a bit sleepy and craving sour things, nothing else really."
Nanny Wan let out a long breath and stared at her belly, "It’s a child that loves its mother... I’ll quickly go tell Mrs. Du to make some sour and refreshing dishes, especially now that it’s hot."
Ban Xia picked up something from the ground and chased after her, "Nanny Wan, the skimmer!"
"Oh dear, I forgot the kitchenware."
Nanny Wan took the skimmer to the small kitchen.
She needed to quickly monumental news with Mrs. Du and Nanny Hu.
Nanny Li advised, "You’re going to be a mother, you can’t just wander around the Capital City like you used to."
Meng Qianqian laughed, "Got it, Nanny."
After becoming pregnant, she feared the heat much more. During the scorching summer, she truly had no desire to go out and just stayed indoors cooling off.
Nanny Li gently placed the sleeping Treasure Piggy on the bed, then got up and opened a box, taking out a roll of fabric.
Meng Qianqian asked, "Nanny, what’s this for?"
"To make a couple of outfits for the child."
Meng Qianqian couldn’t help but laugh, "It’s still early for that."
Nanny Li took out scissors and said, "It’s for Miss Zhaozhao. Now that you’re pregnant, you must cherish her even more and not let her feel left out."
Meng Qianqian nodded with a smile, "Sure, I’ll listen to Nanny."
Nanny Li paused for a moment, suddenly saying, "Let’s make a set for the young master too."
She understood now why the young master went to the Princess Mansion to pick up the old madame himself.
This young master is indeed someone to mingle with.
Lu Yuan’s visit to the Princess Mansion this time was not alone; he brought along Chen Long and Ji Li.
"It would’ve been fine if you only brought him along. Why bring me? I’m not your brother-in-law!" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelꞁire.net
In the carriage, Ji Li shook his fan with a dissatisfied expression.
Lu Yuan sarcastically said, "Have you been in Liang Country for so long that you’ve forgotten your identity as the Prince Consort?"
Ji Li’s fan-waving paused for a moment.
Lu Yuan’s lips curved slightly, his expression teasing, "Remember now?"
Ji Li said in a serious tone, "I, the Commander Guard, have never forgotten, why do I need your reminder?"
Lu Yuan lazily leaned back against the chair, glancing over at Ji Li, "Planning to run away?"
Ji Li, who had just lifted his butt half an inch, discreetly sat back down, "What exactly do you want?"
Lu Yuan said, "I’m the Grand Commander, and you’re the Prince Consort. What do you think I want? Of course, I’m planning to drag you back to the Princess Mansion to gain Princess Wanping’s favor."
Ji Li was furious, "Hey! Are you really this despicable?"
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, "She took care of the old madame for a while, and I’ve looked after her husband along the way. It’s a fair deal, everyone wins."
Ji Li jumped with anger, "Are you kidding? When did you ever look after me on the way? You were just busy fighting with me, the Commander Guard, weren’t you? Moreover, does the Commander Guard, with unparalleled skills, need your protection? Absolutely laughable!"
Lu Yuan said, "Then laugh."
The all-silent Chen Long spoke up, "Isn’t Princess Wanping nice? If you don’t like her, why did you marry her in the first place?"
Ji Li said, "I never said she’s not nice! Sigh, you don’t understand, once a woman clings too tightly to a man, all he thinks about is escaping."
Chen Long, after pondering seriously for a moment, looked towards Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan knew he misunderstood and quickly said, "Hey, that’s not me at all."
Chen Long earnestly said, "You better not be; if you dare dislike my sister for being too attentive, I’ll have your head."
Lu Yuan’s mouth twitched.
Ji Li puzzledly pointed at Chen Long, asking Lu Yuan, "So why did you bring him along?"
Lu Yuan confidently said, "To prevent you from escaping halfway."
Ji Li’s face turned dark.
With Chen Long watching, Ji Li couldn’t find an opportunity to escape.
He cursed Lu Yuan in his heart forty-nine times.
No wonder they call him the Great Traitor, so cunning!
As they approached the Princess Mansion, he had a sudden idea and said to Lu Yuan, "Let’s make a deal."
Lu Yuan denied without thinking, "You don’t have anything I want."
"At the very least, I’m one of the Twelve Guards. I must have some treasures at the bottom of my chest, right? I don’t believe there’s nothing you want!"
"Now that you mention it, there is indeed one thing."
"Your Divination Skill."
"Hey! That’s my special skill, only passed on to chosen apprentices! You’re not qualified to enter under my tutelage! Let it go!"
"The Princess has arrived—"
Lu Yuan extended his hand.
Ji Li painfully pulled out a secret manual from his chest.
Lu Yuan showed it to Chen Long, "Is it real?"
