Chapter 166
Xue Chen took Wan on the trail and chatted with her casually:
"How old are you this year? Is this your third child?"
Wan's small body was a little thin and pale, and she was not in good spirits. Her big belly made her look particularly haggard, which made people feel distressed when she looked.
Wan smiled, his lips touched with rouge slightly: "It's the 17th Chinese New Year. I have given birth to two children before, one sister and the other brother. I don't know what this is."
Xue Chen was shocked: "You are only sixteen this year?" Sixteen is about to have three children, and his envious eyes can't help but fall on her belly. Xue Chen subconsciously looked at her, not knowing if he still has a chance to get bigger in his life.
Wan seemed to feel Xue Chen staring at her. Xue Chen was half a head taller than her. She looked much taller, with narrow shoulders and thin waist. She was a man's favorite figure. Her facial features were surprisingly delicate, pink cheeks and peach cheeks, and her pupils were cut. No matter where she looked, she was an unreliable beauty. Her skin was so shattered. Wan couldn't help but feel envious of Xue Chen, but it was only for a moment, because she knew that Xue Chen was seventeen years old and almost eighteen, and she didn't even have a child. Now she is beautiful and young, and men spoiled her. But if she had to wait until she was old and had no children around her, her old age would be miserable, regardless of whether she was a first-class lady.
Xue Chen didn't know what Wan was thinking, and always felt that Wan's eyes were full of sympathy when they looked at her. I thought that she was sympathetic to her age and had no children yet. However, Xue Chen could not mind anything else. She really minded this only thing. She had never given birth to a child in her previous life. In this life, she and Lou Qingyun both went against the will of heaven, so how could she dare to hope that God would reward their children?
Xia Zhu asked Wan to find a loose open-padded suit. The skirt inside was full of breasts, which did not hinder her big belly. The clothes were still when she got married. She brought the dowry clothes from the Lou family, which was also the pregnancy clothes prepared by Xiao. Unfortunately, she had never been able to use them.
After sending the Wan family safety to the pavilion, Xue Chen said something to his wife in the pavilion for a while before returning to Canglan Garden.
The next day, the old lady called Xue Chen to Songheyuan again and handed Xue Chen the prescription left by Mrs. Anyang Hou to Xue Chen. She seemed a little embarrassed and just gave a soft command:
"This... is the prescription left to me by Mrs. Anyang Hou. It is said that it can regulate a woman's body. Of course, it is not that you are in poor health, but that you are recuperating and you can always be better. I have asked Madam Jin to give her thirty pairs. It is said that this kind of medicine is a bit bitter. Drink one pair every morning and evening, and try it for half a month. Don't have a psychological burden. You can't control this kind of thing. Children are all rewarded by Bodhisattvas, but..."
Xue Chen immediately understood what the old lady meant, and silently accepted the prescription, and promised the old lady: "Don't worry, old lady, I understand what you mean. I will bring the medicine back later. I'll bother Madam Jin to watch those maids boil it for me every day."
The old lady looked at Xue Chen so cheerful, and suddenly felt a little regretful. She might not have listened to Mrs. Anyang Hou's words, because this was hurting the heart of Chen.
Trying to explain: "Girl, don't be angry. If you don't want to drink, we won't drink it. Everything will go naturally, how good it will be."
Xue Chen looked at the old lady and felt mixed feelings. She really didn't know that if she could not give birth to a child in two years, then how could she have the same face to face the old lady, the eldest princess, and the ancestors of the Lou family...
He shook his head decisively and said, "No, I am willing to drink it. Actually, I am also anxious about this. I just don't know how to tell you, "You have asked for a prescription for me now. I thank you too much, so why don't you want to drink it?"
The old lady looked at the sensible child, nodded with relief and said, "Oh, I said that, and I didn't think it was blamed for you. Don't think too much about it. If this medicine is really bitter, it's okay if you don't drink it."
Xue Chen nodded, but had a different decision in his heart. No matter how bitter the medicine is, as long as it works, she will definitely drink all the drops without missing a drop. No matter whether she and Lou Qingyun can have a child in the end, she will always do her best for the Lou family. If she works hard until the end and it is not useful, she will not feel too conscience.
She and Lou Qingyun should not have existed in this world, but they reversed their destiny and changed from non-existence to existence. So they have to be punished by some gods. Without children, it is indeed a very serious destiny. This may be the destiny that they should bear.
He took all the prescriptions and the six food boxes of the medicine bags back to Canglanyuan. Although Xue Chen came back together, he took Qin Feng and Xia Zhu to the kitchen with a medicine bag. Xue Chen's daily life was all the responsibility of Qin Feng and Zheng Yuan. Decoction of medicine should have been handed over to them, but Xia Zhu was experienced and the medicine was personally advised by the old lady. Therefore, Aunt Jin did not dare to be careless, so she ordered Xia Zhu to go with her.
This medicine is made from eight bowls of water into a bowl of water. The last time it is poured out is the medicine juice. The dark bowl was delivered to Xue Chen. The medicine was so strong that it was a bit pungent. Xue Chen held the bowl and glanced at Madam Jin, as if asking: Can this thing be drunk?
Madam Jin nodded and said, "The medicines that women drink at home are like this. They are a bit bitter. The young lady pinched her nose and drank them. I have asked Qin Feng to prepare candied fruit for you. It will not be so bitter if you drink it and eat one candied fruit."
Xue Chen brought the medicine bowl to his lips. After hesitating for a while, he sucked it in small sips. It was so bitter that it was almost like spitting out Xue Chen's breakfast. He directly suspected that this game could really be drunk?
But when Madam Jin was watching, Xue Chen didn't want the old lady to worry too much, so he just followed Madam Jin's instructions, pinched his nose and poured a bowl of medicine into his mouth. The moment he put down the bowl, he took a candied fruit and put it in his mouth, but it still couldn't cover the bitterness of the medicine. It was a kind of bitterness that was so bitter that it was so bitter that it was in the heart and so bitter that it shed tears. It was more than a hundred times more bitter than Coptis chinensis.
After Xue Chen leaned there and took more than ten candied fruits, he felt that the tip of his tongue was numb and slightly regained his consciousness. When she thought of this medicine, she had to drink it dozens or even hundreds of times, and suddenly she felt like she was indulging in her life. I don’t know who wanted to let women drink this medicine. It was nothing that humans drank. In order to make women pregnant, even their qualifications to be human first were deprived.
Because of the medicine, Xue Chen had no appetite at noon. After taking a few sips of the soup, he went to bed to rest.
When Lou Qingyun came back in the evening, she was sitting listlessly in the study reading, talking to Lou Qingyun for a while, and then the two of them had a supper in the room.
After dinner, Qin Feng came over with the bowl of black medicine again.
Xue Chen tried hard to suppress his urge to escape. After taking the medicine, he was reluctant to eat it again. She drank a bowl in the morning and felt uncomfortable until the evening. If she drank another bowl, she would not sleep that night...
But it won’t work if you don’t drink it.
Before Lou Qingyun finished her supper, she looked at Xue Chen worried about the bowl of things in front of her and couldn't help but ask, "What's this? Is it black, sour plum soup? Why don't I have it?"
Xue Chen gave him a blank look: "It's not sour plum soup, it's medicine, do you want to drink it?"
Lou Qingyun put down his chopsticks, walked to Xue Chen, stroked her forehead, and asked, "What medicine do you think you are drinking well? You don't have a fever."
Xue Chen patted his hand open and said helplessly: "No fever, it's a tonic."
"What are you doing? Are you healthy? What are you good at? It's three parts poisonous. Who can take medicine to nourish your body if you have nothing to do?"
As he said that, Lou Qingyun was about to snatch the bowl from Xue Chen, but was suppressed by Xue Chen again: "Stop making trouble, this is a tonic for women's home, why are you joining in the fun?"
After hearing this, Lou Qingyun could understand a little bit and said, "Who asked you to drink it? You are not sick or painful, and you have no problems with women's family. What can you make up for?"
The more Xue Chen talked to him, the less she wanted to drink it, so she put the bowl on the table and thought to wait and then pour it down in one breath. Seeing that Lou Qingyun was a little confused, she explained:
"Oh, don't worry. The granddaughter-in-law of my aunt's family is only sixteen years old this year and has three children. I will be eighteen next year, but I don't even have a letter yet. No wonder the family is in a hurry. It's not that the family is in a hurry, but the people outside are anxious for us. Not to mention that I have taken medicine, can we have children, even if we still don't have it, I have to drink this medicine. I have to work hard."
“…”
Lou Qingyun looked at Xue Chen who was explaining to him seriously, and suddenly felt a little amused and crying. He held Xue Chen's hand that wanted to take medicine again and said, "You are drinking such a bitter thing just to have a baby with me?"
Xue Chen frowned and gave him a blank look: "What does it mean to have a baby with you! You are the eldest son and grandson. If you don't have children, who will inherit the Lou family in the future? You should let me drink it quickly. Anyway, I will not agree to take a concubine in this life. If I don't have a good health, don't blame me for not having children in this life, hold it away."
However, Lou Qingyun stood in front of Xue Chen with a steady bowl, and took a warm wet wipe from the tray in Su Yuan's hand and wiped his mouth. Then he took Xue Chen's hand and said, "Come in with me, I have something to say to you."
Xue Chen was staggered by him and almost fell. Fortunately, Lou Qingyun quickly supported her. The two of them entered the inner room. The maids finished packing the table and left the bowl of black medicine and a small plate of candied fruit. After Xue Chen and Lou Qingyun had finished talking, they would come out to drink.
Lou Qingyun pulled Xue Chen into the inner room, asked her to sit on the edge of the bed, and said, "Why don't you tell me if you want a child? What are you going to take that medicine for?"
Xue Chen glared at him angrily and said, "We have been married for three years. If you...you can, I will have it long ago. What's the use of you?"
Lou Qingyun laughed for the first time. No matter how smart her wife is on weekdays, she is very stupid when she encounters such a thing. Knowing that she has already taken the bitter medicine today, she feels very distressed, so she no longer intends to hide it from her and said:
"We have been married for three years, but we have never given birth seriously. I am seven years older than you and know more than you. Women cannot have children too early, and they are prone to lose their health. You were only fifteen when you married me. If you lose your health to give birth to me, then I would rather not have children. We can't give birth to children. Don't listen to the nonsense of the aunt and grandma, she likes her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law gave birth to her. But among the few daughters-in-law you see now, are there any wife of her son's original wife? She has many children, but several daughter-in-law have died. They are not all given birth to children. The medicine she gave can't be drunk, and it's better for us to give birth to children. As long as you want, I can give it to you at any time!"
“…”
This tone is even more awesome than giving away a child Guanyin!
