Without practicing the Hehuan skill, the crazy leader has infinite charm

Chapter 365 About Fetal Movement

It's already May and the weather is getting hotter.

Since Yao Jia became pregnant, she has been particularly afraid of heat and always stays in the pavilion in the backyard of the mansion every day.

There are green trees and clear water in the lotus pond, making it a great place to escape the summer heat.

Now that Nangong Xiu Lan is back, Yao Jia has even more free time and doesn't have to worry about anything. Every day she discusses clothing styles with Bai Huahua, listens to the little songs sung by Lang Yue, and talks to Huaichuan about what she wants to eat today.

As the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, Yao Jia starts to crave rice dumplings again.

He put down the mango that had been eaten till only the core was left and looked at the white flowers.

"We have nothing to do anyway, why don't we make some rice dumplings?"

When Bai Huahua heard about making rice dumplings, her eyes lit up instantly. In the past in Jiangling City, they could train the dragon boat team on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival.

Now that I’m in Kyoto, the only way to celebrate is to make some rice dumplings.

"What a great idea! I'll go prepare the glutinous rice, leaves and stuffing right away. Let's have a zongzi competition to see who can make the best and fastest zongzi!"

Yao Jia smiled and nodded, then looked at Huaichuan and Langyue, "You two should come and help, it will be more fun with more people."

Huaichuan smiled and said, "I'm not good at delicate work like making zongzi, but I can mix a few kinds of fillings."

"Then you might as well make one with meat filling. Meat filling is also delicious."

Lang Yue's proposal instantly made Yao Jia's eyes light up, and Huaichuan agreed with a smile.

Soon, red dates, bean paste, salted egg yolks, and Huaichuan’s special meat filling were brought to the pavilion.

The air was filled with the fragrance of glutinous rice and rice dumplings. Several people were busy and had a lot of fun wrapping a whole pot of dumplings.

When the sun sets, the rice dumplings are finally out of the pot, and the rest of the people also come back in time.

"Oh, is this a Zongzi convention?"

Facing a table full of zongzi, Shuanghua joked with a smile, then opened one and said in surprise, "It's actually a meat zongzi!"

Nangong Xiu Lan, Gu Xi Yan and Ming Jue all had strange looks on their faces. Northerners usually eat sweet rice dumplings, so they naturally couldn't accept salty ones.

Ke Yaojia and Langyue have lived in both the north and the south, so they are naturally adapted to various tastes.

The two of them tasted sweet sometimes and salty sometimes.

Yao Jia ate two salty dishes and two sweet dishes.

Mingjue was afraid that she would have indigestion, so he made her a bowl of digestive medicine soup, and then let her and Langyue go back to their room to rest.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, Yao Jia woke up from hunger again.

After struggling on the bed for a long time, he slowly sat up and touched his slightly bulging belly.

Lang Yue beside him heard the noise and slowly woke up. With the faint moonlight coming in from the window, he gently asked, "Yaoyao, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach?"

Yao Jia smiled with an embarrassed smile, "Really, I'm hungry..."

Lang Yue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. A hint of pampering flashed in her eyes. She chuckled and said, "You little greedy cat, you ate so much during the day. Ming Jue was worried that you would have indigestion. I didn't expect that... Wait, there is bird's nest warming on the stove outside. I'll go get it."

After saying that, he threw back the quilt and got out of bed.

"Remember to add some ice cubes to it. I don't want to drink it hot."

Lang Yue nodded slightly, but what he brought back was a bowl of bird's nest at room temperature with milk.

"Mingjue said that you are not in good health now. Drinking something too cold is not good for you and the baby. I specially asked the servants to adjust the temperature and add some milk. It can both relieve hunger and calm the nerves."

Langyue fed Yaojia carefully, his eyes full of tenderness.

The bird's nest was warm, smooth and not greasy. Yao Jia finished a small bowl of it in no time.

My stomach felt much better and a satisfied smile appeared on my face.

"Lang Yue is really thoughtful."

"Baji" she gave him a kiss on the cheek, "Thank you."

"You're being polite to me." Lang Yue smiled and scratched Yao Jia's nose, his doting feelings evident in his words.

He helped Yao Jia rinse her mouth, and then the two of them lay down.

After drinking the bird's nest, Yao Jia didn't feel very sleepy.

"Langyue, we are getting married this month. Besides the people from Tianxing Pavilion, who else did you invite?"

Yao Jia actually wanted to ask him whether he had invited Qi Huan.

But after waiting for a long time, I only heard Langyue say the word "gone" lightly.

Yao Jia said "Oh" and tried to ask, "What about Marquis Qi? Don't you plan to invite him? After all, you have recognized him."

Lang Yue was stunned for a moment, then turned sideways to look at Yao Jia.

The closer the divorce date got, the more he struggled with whether or not to invite his uncle. He didn't expect Yaoyao to ask about it on her own initiative.

"Can I invite him? Would it be too abrupt to go there without permission?" There was caution in his voice.

Knowing that Qi Huan was his adoptive father, Lang Yue was afraid of causing trouble for Yao Jia, so he always avoided contact with Qi Huan. Qi Huan also kept his distance from him tacitly.

Yao Jia rested her head in his arms and held his narrow waist with her hands.

"What's so strange about that? The Dragon Boat Festival is coming, you can bring some homemade rice dumplings. Anyway, Daddy always gives gifts to the Qi Mansion every year, so others won't get suspicious."

The next day, Langyue got up early and begged Huaichuan to pickle some more meat filling.

"You haven't eaten enough yet?"

"No, I'm going to give a gift."

"Gifts?" Huaichuan looked at him in surprise. "Bai Pingjun has already prepared Dragon Boat Festival gifts for various places. Why don't you just go and get one? Why are you going through so much trouble? Could it be that... the person you are sending it to is very special?"

Although Huaichuan is a good brother, he cannot reveal his life experience, so he hooked his neck in a rogue manner.

"Are you my brother? If so, don't ask so many questions. Just do it for me."

Huaichuan shook his head helplessly, knowing that everyone has secrets.

Without asking any more questions, he agreed with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll prepare it for you right away, but as promised, you have to help me make some rice dumplings when you're free. Yaoyao loves this, and I want to always have it ready for her."

Lang Yue agreed with a smile.

Huaichuan quickly prepared the meat filling and went to make Yaojia's breakfast.

Lang Yue had been busy for half a day, and when Huaichuan was about to make lunch, he took the wrapped rice dumplings out of the pot, left some for them, and put the rest into the food boxes.

I went to Bai Huahua to receive another gift.

"Who is this for?"

The destination of the gifts had to be registered, so Bai Huahua asked casually.

"At the Qihou Mansion."

During the Chinese New Year, Yao Jia did ask Lang Yue and Huai Chuan to deliver gifts to Marquis Qi. Bai Hua Hua did not suspect anything and directly asked the servants to prepare the gifts and hired a carriage to send Lang Yue over.

During lunch, Bai Huahua saw Huaichuan and asked him why he didn't go with Langyue to give gifts to the Marquis of Qi.

Huaichuan was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Langyue’s rice dumplings were meant for Marquis Qi. He couldn’t help but look at Yaojia in confusion.

Yao Jia coughed lightly and said with a smile: "I asked Lang Yue to go by himself. You know, I was greedy during pregnancy, so Huaichuan had to give me extra food from time to time. Lang Yue really had nothing to do at home, so it would be good to let him go out for a walk, right?"

shining white:"…………"

"But just to ask, why do you have so much to explain?"

Yao Jia choked, cleared her throat, and laughed, "Maybe it's because I have a child, I become more talkative. Do you think this child will be a chatterbox after he is born?"

Bai Huahua was amused by this, "That depends on who she looks like. If she looks like me, she'd be a chatterbox. Yaoyao's baby must be mine!"

"Mine!" Gu Xiyan immediately retorted.

Bai Huahua didn't care at all and raised her hand to touch Yao Jia's belly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as my hand touched the slightly bulging belly, I felt something sliding across my palm.

Although it was just a slight touch, it stunned Yao Jia and Bai Hua Hua.

The atmosphere suddenly became subtle.

Yao Jia widened her eyes and looked at Bai Huahua with surprise and a bit of joy.

Bai Huahua quickly withdrew her hand, looking incredulous.

"This... this kid, he... he moved!" His voice trembled slightly, and there was a gleam of disbelief in his eyes.

Yao Jia nodded repeatedly, and touched the area where the fetus moved just now. "It's amazing, just like a fish swimming gently inside."

Yao Jia gently stroked her belly, feeling the most primitive throbbing of life, her heart filled with unprecedented happiness and anticipation.
