After running around for more than ten hours, Li Shan slept until the sunset, but was forced to wake up by the ravenous feeling of hunger.
Just when he got up, he heard chirping outside. Li Shanzheng was worried, thinking that the maids who followed Eleven Niang through the door were really a bit unruly, but when he pushed the door and went out, he could only show a hypocritical smile.
No one can afford it.
Mrs. Zhu, mother-in-law Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Changsun and Princess Yang Yang surrounded Cui Shiniang with stars in their arms. They kept talking about the things that needed attention, but they didn't even notice Li Shan.
"Ahem, ahem."
"Huairen is finally up." Mrs. Changsun covered her mouth and said with a smile, "I'm so lucky to be home all night."
Well, the matter of returning to the village overnight has been completely covered up. Even if Li Yuan and Li Shimin get suspicious, there will be no clues. Moreover, he has also established himself as a gentle man.
For a moment, Li Shan had nothing to say. He could only laugh a few times and look at Cui Shiniang, "What do the doctors from the Imperial Medical Office say?"
"Don't worry, it's all agreed upon." Princess Pingyang said with a smile: "As a new father, Huairen must behave properly from now on. Riding back on horseback late at night is not a joke."
Ms. Zhang also nodded in agreement, "With Mrs. Zhu here, how could she have wronged Eleven Niang? Why are she in such a hurry to come back?"
Although the roads in Jingzhao are flat, they are not concrete roads after all. No matter how skilled a knight is in riding, there is no guarantee that he will be safe. If a knight falls or falls off his horse, the danger is difficult to predict.
Li Shan laughed and said, "As the third sister said, as a first-time father, you should take it seriously."
It was already dusk at this time, and Princess Pingyang and the Changsun family were going back to the city, but Zhang family was worried about her daughter, so she simply stayed at Zhuangzi. Anyway, her husband was with her at Renzhi Palace, and the two sons left by her exes were in love with her. Bored.
Eleven Niang was Zhang’s only flesh and blood, to put it a bit exaggerated, a few years later, Cui Xin passed away, and Zhang’s status in the family had to be maintained by her daughter and son-in-law.
Li Shan diligently escorted Princess Pingyang and Chang Sun out of the house with a smile on his face and asked in a low voice: "Third sister, how is Pei Hongda doing lately?"
Princess Pingyang frowned, "I saw him at Zhuque Gate yesterday. There was nothing strange about him. He was in good spirits."
"That's good."
Princess Pingyang glanced at the Changsun family next to her and knew that this woman's husband and son were all dependent on the King of Qin. She was the cousin of the Princess of Qin and someone who knew the inside story, so she asked directly: "What is Huairen worried about? "
Changsun smiled slightly and said, "I'm just worried about something happening in the East Palace."
After a pause, Changsun glanced at Li Shan, who had already hurried back to the backyard, and whispered: "Probably not, but if Pei Hongda is not around for a long time, he may take action against Zhuangzi."
Princess Pingyang snorted and said in a low voice: "I heard Huairen mention it once that Pei Hongda has an spy in Zhuangzi..."
The Changsun family remained silent this time, thinking that with Li Huairen's scheming methods, he could barely compete with Pei Shiju, a famous official from several dynasties. But with the current situation like this, the latter might not be able to make a comeback.
Li Shan, who returned to the backyard, stood at the door and slowly walked closer. He had indescribable emotions in his heart. Although he couldn't diagnose the pulse, he was a doctor after all. He could almost confirm it in the early morning, and even vaguely remembered that I had a dream during a long sleep, as if I was clumsily changing a child's diaper?
Li Shan still has experience in how to get along with pregnant women. After all, he has been in the department, but how to get along with pregnant wives is a bit numb. What comes to mind are those pregnant women whose husbands are both happy, worried, and a little scared. look.
This kind of psychological activity directly caused Li Shan to walk to Cui Shiniang. His wife stretched out her hand to stand up, but Li Shan suddenly retracted her hand and stammered: "Sit, just sit."
Mrs. Zhang on the side couldn't help laughing, "It's only been two or three months, so I can move around without any problems."
"No, no, no, be careful." Li Shan rarely retorted to his mother-in-law, and asked diligently: "Eleventh Mother, what do you want to eat?"
Looking at the husband who seemed to be a stranger in front of her, Cui Shiniang couldn't help but smile. The dimples on her cheeks were particularly obvious. She said in a waxy tone: "I remember the duck soup that was stewed was very fragrant."
"Okay!" Li Shan agreed, "I'll kill him, I'll do it!"
Mrs. Zhu on the side wanted to cover her face. Her son's stupid look was really embarrassing.
More than half an hour later, a fragrant pot of dried bamboo shoots and old duck soup was served... We haven't gone through the next two Little Ice Ages, and now there are bamboos even in Guanzhong.
Li Shan carefully scooped out four bowls. Mrs. Zhu lowered his head and glanced at Mr. Zhang's bowl opposite. Neither of them had a share of the duck wings and legs, leaving them all for Cui Shiniang.
Mrs. Zhu was not angry and smiled. As expected, Cui Shiniang frowned after taking two sips. She only took two bites of dried bamboo shoots and then put down her chopsticks.
"What's wrong?" Li Shan, a newcomer, took a sip from his bowl in confusion, "It's the same as last time, I specially picked a fat duck."
"Too tired..." Cui Shiniang pursed her lips, "I want to eat something sour."
Li Shan grinned. In this season and in this place, there are neither grapes nor bayberries, so it is a bit difficult.
"Plums." Zhu gave the standard answer.
"Yes, yes, let someone buy it." Li Shan quickly ordered the maid on the side.
In the end, the duck wings and legs ended up in Zhu's and Zhang's bowls. Li Shan couldn't catch any of them even though he was cooking. He supported Cui Shiniang against the bamboo couch like an old Buddha.
Cui Shiniang said angrily and funny: "Mr. Lang, you can eat by yourself first."
"I'm not hungry, I'm not hungry." Li Shan said casually, but a low croaking sound sounded in his abdomen, causing Zhu behind him to laugh uncontrollably.
Zhang shook his head repeatedly and said: "Everyone knows that Li Huairen, the heir to the Tang Dynasty and Wei Dynasty, is an astonishing poet. He is the best in the world on the battlefield. I'm afraid no one has ever seen him like this."
Li Shan said sternly: "As the saying goes, being ruthless does not necessarily mean you are truly heroic. How can you be compassionate to your wife but not your husband?"
Cui Shiniang's eyes lit up, she murmured in a low voice, her little face was filled with radiance, and the maid in the corner cast an envious look... A Lang was just such a person, but with such thoughts, Shiyi Niang was really lucky.
After a simple meal, Li Shan found a bench and sat next to the bamboo couch. He said for a while that he would help him walk in the yard, and then said that the yard seemed to have been replanting flowers and plants recently, so it was better not to go out.
Although Cui Shiniang sometimes vomits and frowns, she still has a satisfied smile on her face... In fact, future generations can't compare to the ancients in attaching great importance to their children, but the ancients cannot compare to the importance they attach to pregnant wives. For future generations.
"By the way, I have something to ask you." Cui Shiniang said, but she glanced at Zhu.
Mrs. Zhu clearly took Mrs. Zhang back to the main courtyard, leaving the young couple to talk alone. The people who came today didn't know, but Cui Shiniang herself knew it. She was diagnosed with pregnancy when Li After Shan returned to the village.
It should be Chapter 08. Sorry, there have been some lapses recently. There are many contradictions between the outline and the details. It's very big, but bringing up King Qi is really not a lie. The relevant foreshadowing has been laid out long ago.
