Chapter 801 - Chapter 801 Tears
Chapter 801: Tears Chapter 801: Tears Editor: Atlas Studios “You’re back.
Just now, the kitchen sent over a few new dishes.
I was just about to tell you about it.
How can we finish so much where there are only three of us at home?
It’d be a waste.” Little Bear nibbled on a pig trotter and replied vaguely, “Good children don’t waste food.” “Eat your food.
Why are you talking so much?” Qi Haoran wiped his mouth and sat down at the side.
Rain quickly scooped a bowl of rice and brought it over.
Qi Haoran first tasted the newly-served dishes and nodded as he picked up a piece for Mu Yangling.
“Try it.
It’s not bad.” Mu Yangling could already feel the nausea welling up, but she still ate a mouthful of it.
Surprisingly, she didn’t vomit it out.
After exhaling, she said with a smile, “It’s not bad.” Qi Haoran smiled happily in response.
Each time he would only pick up a little food for Mu Yangling, and she managed to try a little of every side dish.
In all, she actually managed to finish eating half a bowl of rice this time.
Qi Haoran was delighted.
Although her appetite was still not as good as before, it was much better.
Qi Haoran happily turned around and rewarded the kitchen maids with ten taels of silver each, telling them to work harder and make the Princess Consort’s favorite dishes every day.
The entire Prince’s estate was filled with joy as if it was the new year.
When they heard movement from the Duke’s Residence next door, everyone was even happier.
Rain practically jogged in and bowed with a smile.
“Your Highness, the Duke’s wife is back.
She said that she would bring Young Master Zijin over to visit you in a while.” Mu Yangling was about to fall asleep when she heard this.
She held her stomach and stood up to walk out as she asked in surprise, “Didn’t they say that they would only arrive in Lingnan after the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Why are they here now?” Smiling, Rain went forward to support Mu Yangling.
“Most likely here because they’ve already settled the matters in the capital.” “Why didn’t they tell me in advance?
Has the Duke’s Residence been tidied up?
Do they lack any food or necessities?” “Don’t worry.
His Highness asked Steward Zhu to arrange it early in the morning.
Knowing he’s a thorough person, you can trust he’ll do a good job.” As soon as they left the second yard, they bumped into Little Madam Xia and the others, who were carrying the child and holding an umbrella.
This being Mu Yangling’s first time seeing Fan Zijin’s child, she couldn’t help but move closer to Little Madam Xia to take a closer look.
Seeing that the child was sleeping with his eyes closed, and that Little Madam Xia’s face was slightly wet and she was panting slightly, she knew that the child was heavy.
She quickly took the initiative to take the child into her arms and whispered, “Why didn’t you ask the servants to carry him?
This child is already six months old, right?” Little Madam Xia blushed slightly and said in a low voice, “This child doesn’t allow anyone else to carry him.
He’ll wake up the moment someone takes over.” She looked at Mu Yangling’s big belly worriedly and said, “I should carry the child myself.” Mu Yangling said with a smile, “It’s fine.
I’m much stronger than you and have no problem carrying a mere child.
Let’s go back to my place to rest first while they clean up.
You can return with the child when they’re done.” Little Madam Xia did not stand on ceremony with her and followed her to the main courtyard with a tired expression.
Spring placed an ice basin behind the screen.
As soon as Little Madam Xia entered, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “This place is really nice.
Standing outside is like standing in a steamer.
It’s really hot here this year.
It was quite rainy when we set off from Jiangnan.
Although the temperature is alright, it’s so wet that it makes people feel like they’re going to mold.
That’s not good either.” Coincidentally, Little Bear was also sleeping, so Mu Yangling placed the child beside Little Bear.
Just as she put the child down, the child suddenly let out a huge exhale, startling Mu Yangling.
Seeing the child stretch out his legs and hands before comfortably turning over and continuing to sleep, Mu Yangling couldn’t help but whisper with a smile, “This child also knows that this place is comfortable.” The smile in Little Madam Xia’s eyes seemed to be overflowing as she nodded happily.
“He’s very smart.
He moans when he’s uncomfortable.
But when he’s comfortable, he opens his mouth and talks to others.
He’s extremely obedient.” Little Madam Xia covered his stomach with a small blanket and went out to sit with Mu Yangling.
Seeing that she was so thin, she pinched her hand and said sympathetically, “Why are you so thin?
No wonder His Highness kept writing letters to urge us and even begged His Majesty to let us set off early.” Shocked, Mu Yangling asked, “Did Haoran ask you to come earlier?” Little Madam Xia pursed her lips and smiled.
She leaned close to Mu Yangling’s ear and whispered, “That’s not all.
He said that you don’t have any company here and have no one to chat with.
Also, you’re suffering a loss of appetite due to the hot summer, so he actually wanted to ask your mother to come over and take care of you.
However, the north and south are so far apart that it takes almost two months to travel over.
Your mother’s health isn’t good either, so he had no choice but to beg the Duke to hurry south so that us sisters-in-law can have a good chat.” Mu Yangling’s eyes reddened.
She didn’t know that Qi Haoran had done all this for her.
Little Madam Xia said enviously, “His Highness has been rushing the Duke with letters every few days while we’re on the road.
It’s obvious how well he treats you.
I heard from the Duke that he’s even thinking of borrowing from the Bisha Tribe their holy land to let you avoid the heat.
I wonder what he has to give them in exchange.” Mu Yangling’s tears fell with a whoosh.
Little Madam Xia hurriedly hugged her and said, “Don’t cry.
Otherwise, His Highness will definitely think that I bullied you when he sees this.
I just want you to know how sincerely he treats you.
I heard from the doctor that a loss of appetite due to the hot summer can either be a mild or serious illness.
Sometimes, if one takes things easy, they’ll have a speedy recovery.
On the other hand, some people might take the entire summer to recoveraEUR|” Mu Yangling shook her head, wiped her tears, and said with a smile, “I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you.” Seeing that her tears were slowly stopping, Little Madam Xia heaved a sigh of relief.
The nanny had said that Ah Ling might be fine after crying.
Although she was somewhat prepared for this, Little Madam Xia was still extremely anxious when she actually saw Mu Yangling cry.
When Spring came in and saw the tears on the Princess Consort’s face, she was slightly shocked, but she didn’t say anything.
She just went forward and said, “Your Highness, Madam, the room is ready.
Madam, you can go and rest first.
I’ll call you when dinner is ready.” Little Madam Xia did feel tired, so she nodded slightly and patted Mu Yangling’s hand.
“Then I’ll go and rest first.
We’ll talk tonight.” Mu Yangling agreed with a smile.
As soon as they left, she fell silent.
She was aware of Qi Haoran’s efforts, having seen him order the servants to clean up the waterside pavilion and get the kitchen to prepare all kinds of food for her.
Though she knew about all this, she didn’t expect Qi Haoran to specially invite Fan Zijin and Little Madam Xia to bring forward their travel plans.
Fan Zijin and Little Madam Xia had originally planned to go south after the Qingming Festival, but Qi Xiuyuan had too many things to do.
In addition, Qi Haoran was coping fine here, so he’d left Fan Zijin in the capital to help.
In addition, the child was still young and was not suitable for long-distance travel, so they were originally scheduled to set off after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
By then, the child would be more than ten months old and there was no need to worry so much.
Mu Yangling knew that it must have taken more than one or two letters for Fan Zijin to head south in advance.
Mu Yangling did not know how much Qi Haoran had sacrificed for this, nor did she know how much he had been scolded because of this.
Moreover, there was also the matter of the holy land of the Bisha Tribe.
How much had Qi Haoran done for her without her knowing?
Every time she thought of this, Mu Yangling’s heart ached for him and she was angry with herself.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
When she saw Qi Haoran, Mu Yangling could no longer hold back her tears.
She immediately hugged his waist and started sobbing.
