Liu Ruolan acted quickly and asked her to choose a little girl who liked her that day.
In fact, when she first learned that Feng Manman was pregnant, Liu Ruolan had mentioned that she would send two people over to take care of her, but Feng Manman felt it was not good and Fang Jiahe also felt embarrassed, so they refused.
The small courtyard where Fang Jiahe and Feng Manman live is a little far away from the main courtyard, but not far from the east gate, so the couple usually go through the east gate when entering and exiting the Xie Mansion. Usually, the stewards in the mansion will Get out of this door.
The Fang family sometimes used the corner door next to the main entrance, but Feng Manman always used the east door.
Feng Manman's mother also came twice, always through the east gate, so she didn't disturb the people in the mansion.
This time the Fang family went on a long trip, Liu Ruolan originally wanted to move Feng Manman inside, but Feng Manman felt it was inappropriate, so Liu Ruolan just arranged for someone to come and serve.
Aunt Xi is also experienced, and with the addition of a little girl, it would be appropriate.
There used to be a kitchen in the small yard, and the young couple usually lived their lives and cooked their own meals, which was pretty good.
After the Fang family left, Liu Ruolan had people repair the road leading here, and then told the guards to pay attention during patrols and not to make any mistakes.
Nowadays, the kitchen in the courtyard is basically no longer used. Three meals a day are served from the large kitchen in the house. If Feng Manman is hungry at other times, he can send someone to ask the cook to cook it for her.
Feng Manman looked at the new snacks delivered every day, and then thought about how she could still be hungry after eating so richly.
Aunt Xi smiled and said: "You are young now, so you may not notice it. When the child reaches four or five months, your food intake will increase greatly. If you usually eat one bowl of rice, you may eat three bowls by then." Can’t get enough.”
Feng Manman couldn't help but laugh when he thought of himself holding a bowl and taking a big mouthful of food.
"What more fruits do you want to eat, Mrs. Feng?"
Feng Manman immediately said embarrassedly: "Aunt Xi, didn't I tell you everything? Just call me Manman."
"The etiquette cannot be neglected. You are Madam's nephew-in-law, which means that Manager Fang is just a white woman. Otherwise, I would have to call you Young Madam."
Feng Manman quickly said: "I don't dare to take it seriously."
Days passed by day by day, and Xie Rongzhao could no longer communicate with Cheng Jingzhou. He just felt bored and worried.
As smart as she is, how could she be so clueless?
Xie Rongzhao took advantage of Xie Ronlang's return to Xiu Mu and pestered him to write a letter to Cheng Jingzhou.
"Don't mention me. I mainly want to know how he is doing, and how Mrs. Cheng's health is. I know he doesn't want to be caught. You are all men, and communication is normal."
Xie Ronlang also knew that his sister and Cheng Jingzhou had a deep relationship.
They have grown up together since childhood, and Cheng Jingzhou even saved her. This is not just a relationship between a man and a woman.
"Sister, then I will write a letter to say hello to him, and then I will first say that my father and mother are in good health, and then I will ask the Cheng family elders. Are you sure you really don't want to mention you in the letter?"
Xie Rongzhao thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, just say everything is fine in our family."
Xie Ronlang also heard that the Cheng family was not peaceful before, and even the old lady's death might be related to the younger generation of the Cheng family, so he wrote as she said.
"Xiao Lang, do you think brother Jingzhou can eat enough? I heard that not only can't eat meat when keeping a mourning filial piety, but they can't eat too much even if they are fasting. Moreover, it will be even worse if they want to stay together in a house to keep the spirit alive."
"No. Brother Jingzhou is just a grandson. He can only observe mourning for one year. And the old lady died. It is estimated that the Cheng family will go back to the old house to observe mourning for her at most."
Xie Rongzhao sighed, feeling that he had a little bit of bad luck after he and Cheng Jingzhou separated.
"Wait a minute!"
Xie Rongzhao thought of something and ran quickly to get something.
Soon, Xie Ronlang saw a plain robe and two pairs of shoes.
"Send them all to Brother Jingzhou together. Don't say who did it."
"good."
Cheng Jingzhou received the letter in just a few days, because he happened to be in the capital to deliver official documents there, and he took the letter with him.
From Fucheng to Gaoyang County, even if you walk on two legs, you can walk in a day and a night.
Cheng Jingzhou looked at the things inside and slowly touched the stitches with his fingers. The letter didn't mention it, so there was no need to ask. It must have been made for him by Guobao.
Cheng Jingzhou looked at the plain clothes, which were perfect for keeping one's mourning.
Since he couldn't see Guabao and couldn't communicate with Guabao directly, Cheng Jingzhou simply changed into these clothes.
That night, Cheng Jingzhou wrote a reply to Xie Ronlang. It was a thick letter, eight pages long.
Rather than saying that this letter was written to Xie Ronlang, it was better to say that it was written to Xie Rongzhao.
Sending this letter to the capital will not be so fast.
Xie Rongzhao stayed at home counting mushrooms every day, hoping to receive a reply from Cheng Jingzhou as soon as possible, but she also knew how could it be so fast?
"My dear, your sister Yinuo has sent someone to bring you something. Go and have a look in front. If the gift is too expensive, we have to prepare a gift in return."
"I know, Auntie."
Liu Ruolan didn't go there. There was someone waiting in the front hall, and Xie Rongzhao was with Wang Zizhen, so she didn't need to worry about it. But Feng Manman's place was where she felt she had to go and have a look.
"I heard that the vomiting was severe yesterday, and I don't know how much I ate today. If the vomiting is so severe again, I will have to find a doctor to prescribe some medicine."
Gu Shi followed her and whispered: "Pregnant women should try not to take medicine as much as possible. Even if it is a pregnancy-preventing medicine, it is not absolutely good."
Liu Ruolan naturally knows this truth.
Gu came up with an idea: "How about asking Mrs. Feng's wife to come over?"
Liu Ruolan immediately stopped and said, "This is a good idea! They are all flesh and blood, sitting together and talking, it should be useful."
Gu immediately called a boy over and asked him to kneel on her legs. He also made sure to say that Mrs. Feng's happiness was serious.
Feng Manman was leaning on the bed at the moment, with a disheveled look on his face and half-closing his eyes listlessly.
Hearing the noise outside and knowing that an elder was coming, he immediately lifted the quilt and prepared to get out of bed.
Fortunately, Liu Ruolan was quick and held her down first.
"What are you doing? Just lie down and take a good rest. Tsk, look at that little face. What color is it now? Aunty Xi, have you sent for a doctor?"
"Back to Madam, Madam Feng, this is a symptom of nausea. When the doctor comes, he will at most prescribe anti-vomiting medicine, but if you stop taking the medicine, the vomiting will become worse."
Liu Ruolan frowned: "Then there is no other way?"
Grandma Xi thought for a while: "I used to be able to pickle some spicy and sour side dishes, and pregnant women have tried it before. How about I make some for Madam Feng to try?"
