Chapter 1983: Stop Thinking Wrongly

Jin Lan said coldly: "Fang, you have never been very smart, so there is no need to show it at this time. I know exactly what you are thinking."

"Husband, did I do something wrong?"

Jin Lan took a deep breath and said, "You didn't do anything wrong, you were just a little stupid."

Fang Ximei's eyes turned red instantly.

Jin Lan said: "You did this just because you wanted me to straighten you up. But you must understand that you were demoted to a concubine because of the emperor's personal decree. When I straightened you up, I was resisting the decree! You want me to die ?”

Fang Ximei trembled and waved her hands: "No, I don't want to..."

"Then you can rest easy. It's impossible for you to straighten things up. Unless you can get the emperor to issue a new decree."

"How can I do this? I'm not a sister..."

"Now that you know, you should stop having those evil thoughts."

"But as a husband, the position of the main wife cannot remain empty..."

"This is not something you should care about. You just need to take good care of Lianlian."

Jin Lan left with a puff of sleeves and went back to the study to do some work.

Since Hongdou left, he never stayed except to visit Lianlian. Spending most of the time in the study, my work efficiency has indeed improved a lot.

After the weather got hotter, Yun Dai's belly got bigger and bigger, so she became even more lazy about moving.

Dr. Meng checked her pulse carefully and confirmed that she was only pregnant with one child, which made Zhao Yuanjing let out a long sigh of relief.

Although having twins was a joy, they were too dangerous to give birth to, so he would rather just have one.

The Empress Dowager even sent someone back to ask her whether she was carrying a boy or a girl.

Zhao Yuanjing also asked Dr. Meng, who said that diagnosing the pulse of men and women is not very accurate. But according to his judgment, the mother-in-law is most likely pregnant with a male fetus.

When the news spread, the government and the public were elated.

Yun Dai had probably calculated that the due date should be mid-July.

It was the hottest time again. The thought of confinement in such a hot weather gave Yun Dai a headache.

Yun Wu comforted her and insisted on holding on for a month. She placed a circle of ice basins outside the house and used a fan to cool her down a little, so she wouldn't be too sad.

Yun Dai felt that this method was too extravagant.

When she gave birth to Qian'er, it was August. Even though it was autumn, it was still hot. I didn't feel uncomfortable during confinement at that time. After thinking about it, she remembered that she was in confinement at her maternal grandfather's house.

The yard of my grandfather's house was surrounded by a lake and planted with countless weeping willows. Even in midsummer, there was a cool breeze and I didn't feel the heat.

Yun Dai wanted to go to her grandfather's house for confinement.

But this doesn't quite follow the rules.

Unless special circumstances have no other choice, where can a married woman stay in her natal home for confinement?

Yun Dai tentatively mentioned it to Zhao Yuanjing, but Zhao Yuanjing agreed immediately.

"As long as you feel comfortable, you can have your confinement anywhere." Zhao Yuanjing put his arms around her waist, which had become thicker due to her big belly, and said with a smile, "Grandpa's house is not an outsider, and it is close to the palace. I can go there every day. Accompany you."

"You have no objection?"

"Of course not. I was originally worried that if you are in confinement due to the hot weather, you will be irritable and lose your temper, and Qing Yi and the others will not be able to take care of you. It should be better if I go to the Hou Mansion and have my aunt, cousin, and the others with me."

"Zhao Yuanjing, compared to Hua Qian'er and the others last time, you were particularly considerate this time."

"Because now I understand a truth. Only when you are happy can I be happy." Zhao Yuanjing joked with a smile, "You are pregnant with my son. Can't I serve you well? Seize this opportunity and act quickly. I am infinitely tolerant. There will be no such opportunity in the future.”
