Or they would just ignore it.

When Ningxiu suffered from morning sickness, her husband even went to get medicine for her specifically, which showed that he really cared for her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered to get medicine just because she was vomiting from pregnancy.

Yunjin was teased by Su Ningxiu but she didn’t get embarrassed like her older sister. Gu Ya approached Yunjin and said, “Yunniang, I’ll brew the medicine for you later, and you can take it this evening.”

Yunjin hadn’t planned to take the medicine, but since Gu Ya had gone to the trouble of obtaining it for her, it would be hard for her to decline.

So she nodded.

“Mm.”

With Su Ningxiu around, dinner was a collaboration between Yunjin and Su Ningxiu. They picked cucumbers, green peppers, and eggplants from the yard, and made cucumber soup with the cucumbers.

They chopped up the green pepper to make a spicy dip, which could be enjoyed along with the cucumber in the soup, and Yunjin prepared stuffed eggplants with sauce. These were the vegetable dishes.

Today, her older sister had brought two pigeons, suggesting that Yunjin make soup with them. But Yunjin found soup boring, remembering the delicious honey-glazed pigeon with rose liquor she had eaten in modern times, so she decided to make that dish with the pigeons her older sister had brought over.

Yunjin prepared rose liquor pigeon with both birds. Before they were even off the stove, the aroma wafted through the air. She offered Su Ningxiu a taste with her chopsticks.

Su Ningxiu nodded her head repeatedly in approval, saying it was delicious.

Yunjin tasted it herself and found it every bit as good as what she’d made in modern times–fragrant, juicy, and succulent. Gu Ya came in just as she was holding a plate of the pigeon meat.

She asked Gu Ya if he wanted to try it?

Gu Ya declined.

Still, Yunjin picked up a piece with her chopsticks and offered it to Gu Ya. It was his first time tasting rose liquor pigeon; as soon as it hit his mouth, Gu Ya looked at his wife in surprise.

“Husband, how is it? Isn’t it delicious?” Yunjin asked with a twinkle in her eye and a smile. Gu Ya honestly hummed in affirmation–the pigeon meat she made was indeed delicious.

Su Ningxiu, not yet satisfied, exclaimed, “Little sister, I never knew pigeon meat could taste this good.” She had never had such delicious pigeon meat before.

In the end, both pigeons were polished off completely.

The other dishes had been eaten halfway as well.

After dinner, Yunjin didn’t return to her own room, but instead slipped into her older sister’s quarters. The sisters exchanged whispers.

The young wife had gone to Su Ningxiu’s room.

Gu Ya waited for his wife to return.

But it seemed as if she had forgotten to come back, and he couldn’t stand it any longer. Finally, he went to the door of the room where Su Ningxiu was staying and knocked.

“Yunniang!” While Su Ningxiu and Yunjin were chatting inside the room, Gu Ya’s voice came from outside, prompting both sisters to look toward the doorway.

Su Ningxiu got up to open the door. “Little sister, it looks like your husband has come for you.” Yunjin had naturally heard Gu Ya’s voice and followed Su Ningxiu to the door.

Upon seeing his young wife, Gu Ya, who initially wanted to scold her for not coming back to sleep so late, changed his mind when he saw Su Ningxiu watching.

Gu Ya then adopted a polite tone.

“Second sister, it’s quite late. I’m here to ask Yunniang to come back to our room to rest.”
