Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

It's not because of any grudge or conspiracy, she is just simply afraid of having children.

Niang, Aunt He, and Aunt Liu all died in childbirth. She didn't know how great the love for her son was. She only knew that if the birth of a child meant exchanging one life for another, she would never do this business.

But how should I explain this to Lu Anyuan? If he knew, he would definitely think that I deliberately didn't want to give him a child.

It's quite a headache.

"Ying Jiu, are you there?" Xu Yixing tried to call out, and then Ying Jiu appeared immediately, which really surprised her.

"What are your orders, Master?"

"You actually came in. I thought..."

"Actually, Ah Da knew I was coming in, and the guards in the Prince's Mansion didn't make any noise. I think the Seventh Prince had given instructions in advance."

"Oh...how many of you are here?"

"As usual, I will be with you, and Yingwu will also be here with the gift-giving convoy."

"Okay, everyone else go and do your own thing. I don't plan to let them out yet."

"Yes."

"Also, Yingjiu, there is something very private that I need you to do. You cannot tell anyone, including your eight brothers."

Ying Jiu frowned, thinking that his master was being so mysterious, it must be nothing serious.

"I need you to get me some contraceptives. Not soup, that's too conspicuous. Better yet, pills or powders. But the medicine can't hurt me so much that I can't get pregnant. You, you understand, right?"

"Um... Actually, I don't know much about medicine, so I should let Ying Si handle it..."

"That brat will definitely tell everyone about it! Besides, I don't want him to know."

"Then I will go look for him, but let me remind you that Mr. Yao is also in the mansion. If he sees you, he may be able to make a diagnosis."

"I know. I'll keep an eye on it myself. You go ahead."

"Yes."

They sat outside until it was completely dark. Xu Yixing looked through the screen window and saw the maids outside turning on the lights. It seemed that Lu Anyuan was almost done.

There were three knocks on the door. Xu Yixing knew that it was Siqin reminding him that someone was coming to the front yard.

So she quickly put on the face curtain, held the fan in both hands, and sat upright on the edge of the bed.

The person who came reeked of alcohol and the dew outside, but somehow it smelled good.

"A-er, put down the bowl and go take a rest. You've worked hard today."

Lu Anyuan's voice was heard, followed by the sound of doors opening and closing, and then there was no movement.

Huh? It's really strange. Lu Anyuan is clearly in the room, why doesn't he say anything? Is he drunk?

Xu Yixing secretly lowered the fan a little, but happened to meet Lu Anyuan's smiling eyes. He was sitting on the chair opposite to him, just staring at him.

"Hey! You're awake but can't speak a word. Are you mute?"

"Hahaha, I just see you holding the fan, it looks pretty serious. Let's see how long you can pretend!" Lu Anyuan put down his crossed legs and brought the bowl on the table over. There was a whole bowl of臊子面 in it.

"Are you hungry? Eat something first."

"Of course I'm starving. I haven't finished eating all those big buns of yours." Xu Yixing threw the fan away and really didn't pretend anymore.

"Eating something hot is good for your health. I'll take down the veil for you." After saying that, he stretched out his hands to both sides of Xu Yixing's face and gently took off the veil.

"Well! You look great today, you are really beautiful!" Lu Anyuan praised sincerely, but Xu Yixing felt uncomfortable with these words. Are you praising me or Yi Yan?

"But this crown seems a bit too heavy. It has left a mark on your forehead."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yixing felt a chill on his head, and his whole body relaxed. It turned out that Lu Anyuan had taken off his crown for him.

She reached out and rubbed her head, which had lost all feeling, and was truly thankful: "Fortunately, I only wore it this time. If I wore it every day, I think I would be pressed down and not grow taller."

"You shouldn't grow any taller at your age, right?"

"What do you care?" Xu Yixing simply took off his shawl and outer robe, and then he felt that he could move. "Thank you for your face."

"No, we're a family from now on, don't be so polite to me."

Xu Yixing laughed and sat down at the table, separated from Lu Anyuan by a stool, and started slurping noodles.

Lu Anyuan was not in a hurry. He just watched her slowly finish the big bowl of noodles. He was still optimistic about her appetite.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Xu Yixing would always see him staring at him and smiling when he looked up, which was quite creepy.

"There are only two people in this room. Who else can I look at?"

"That was Ah Er just now? Could he be Ah Da's younger brother?"

"No, it's just convenient to call him like this. Ah Da blocked my drink today and was already drunk, so I didn't let him come."

"Oh...how much did you drink?" Xu Yixing sniffed. The smell of alcohol on him was not strong.

"I didn't drink much. What I drank was diluted with water. Nothing happened!"

"You are really smart." Xu Yixing thought secretly, isn't this just plagiarizing me? What's there to brag about!

After finishing the noodles, she patted her belly and made Lu Anyuan laugh so hard that he laughed out loud. I really don’t know why this person loves to laugh so much!

"Come, let's drink the Hehuan wine!" Lu Anyuan poured sake into two cups and gave one to Xu Yixing.

"Isn't this the same drink we had in the Treasure House last time?"

"How could that be? It's just ordinary osmanthus rice wine, it doesn't have much of a smell of alcohol."

Xu Yixing took it, and skillfully took Lu Anyuan's arm, forming an empty circle. The two drank it all in one gulp, and only then did Lu Anyuan really relax.

He put down his wine glass and said to Xu Yixing with emotion, "Our marriage is now settled. We have finally waited for this day."

"Wasn't it confirmed from the day the emperor issued the edict?" Xu Yixing joked.

"No, even if you think you have a sure thing, there will always be variables before you do it."

"From what you said, you are an experienced person?" Xu Yixing still looked at him with a teasing smile. Anyway, he didn't mind listening to some gossip about him.

Lu Anyuan shook his head and suddenly changed the subject: "Yixing, there is actually something I have not told you. I think I shouldn't hide it from you. After you listen to it, no matter how angry you are, I will bear it."

Hmm? Xu Yixing's mind tensed up. Could it be that he had some other shameful tricks that he hadn't discovered yet?

"You tell me, I'm listening."

Lu Anyuan dodged his gaze and spoke after a while: "Actually, I lied to you last time in the palace. The first time we met was not in the Shangshufang at all."
