Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children
Chapter 174 Imperial Concubine 11
After the beginning of winter, it snowed one after another. Two door curtains blocked the wind and snow outside. There was a brazier and a kang in the house, making it as warm as spring.
Shen Jiang's belly was bulging. She stood by the window, trimming plum blossoms and putting them into a plum vase.
A few days ago, the emperor reprimanded Lao Ba again, and his scolding was particularly harsh, because the eagle that Lao Ba gave to the emperor was actually dead.
"I heard that the emperor favored Concubine Liang the most, but I didn't expect that when he scolded her son, he didn't care about the past affection at all."
System: "You believe what's in the novel? The novel also describes you, Concubine Nian, as arrogant and domineering!"
Shen Jiang: "You can't trust unofficial history!"
Just as he was complaining in his heart, the door curtain was lifted and Yongzheng walked in, covered in snow.
"It's still snowing outside. Why don't you wait until the snow stops... Huh?" Shen Jiang noticed the box in Su Peisheng's hand.
Yongzheng took off his cloak and said with a smile: "I just got a pair of treasures, let me show you."
Su Peisheng put the box on the kang. Before Shen Jiang had time to open it, Shizi jumped up and sniffed around the box.
Shen Jiang opened the box and saw two little puppies lying inside whose eyes had not yet opened.
"Wow!" she exclaimed in surprise.
Yongzheng said: "I'll bring it back for you and Persimmon to keep company."
Shen Jiang held the puppy in her arms, the love in her heart was about to melt, and she made a clip sound: "Oh, oh, oh, so cute!"
The little puppy also responded to her with a "嘤嘤嘤".
Persimmon: "Are you trying to compete with me for my favor?"
Shen Jiang, the water-keeping master, immediately put the puppy in front of Shizi, patted its head and said, "These are two younger brothers. You have to play with them in the future and you can't bully them, understand?"
Persimmon: "Damn it, you really are here to win favor!"
Shen Jiang quickly comforted it: "No, Mom still loves you as before. Now not only do you have Mom and Dad who love you, but you also have two younger brothers who love you. You will be loved even more!"
Alas, the troubles of families with two children!
Shen Jiang touched Shizi's belly, and Shizi lay on his back with his arms and legs spread out, snoring comfortably.
The two puppies were first placed in the side room. Fortunately, there was a ready-made doghouse. Shen Jiang took Persimmon with him and asked Zhaocai and Jinbao to take care of the puppies.
After settling everything down, Shen Jiang said to Yongzheng seriously, "Master, next time you bring a kitten or puppy back, be sure to tell Shizi. Otherwise, it will think we don't love it anymore."
Yongzheng not only did not refute her words, but also felt that she was right, and said: "This time, I really did not think carefully enough. It was just a coincidence that I encountered these two puppies. The mother dog froze to death. They were lucky. I couldn't bear to see them starving and freezing outside, so I brought them back to keep you company."
Shen Jiang snuggled in his arms and sighed, "My master is kindhearted. These two puppies are also my blessing."
He is so kind to dogs, Shen Jiang thought.
Wait, he's pretty good to himself.
Stop, don’t think too deeply about it.
Now Shen Jiang is no longer bored. She goes to the west wing to see the puppy every day. The puppy would cry every night when it just left its mother. Although Shen Jiang can't hear it, she still feels very distressed.
The puppies didn't know how to drink milk from the bowl yet, so Shen Jiang made a simple milk bottle out of a bamboo tube and taught Zhaocai and Jinbao to use the bamboo tube to feed milk.
Persimmon was a little hostile towards the puppies at first, but after a few days, he began to wag his tail at them.
Perhaps because they smelled the scent of their own kind, the two puppies quickly fell in love with Persimmon. Even if they couldn't see it, they would come close to Persimmon and snuggle in its arms.
When Shen Jiang comes again, he will see two little puppies sleeping on Persimmon's belly.
Ahaha, male mom!
Persimmon raised his head and gave her a sad look, then lowered it again, looking resigned to his fate.
Shen Jiang did not laugh at Persimmon, but praised it: "Persimmon is such a good brother." He gave Persimmon an extra meal that day.
When the puppies were one month old, Yongzheng gave them names.
"This is called good fortune, and this is called a hundred blessings." Yongzheng said, "Having good fortune and a hundred blessings accompanying you can be considered as accumulating blessings for you and the baby in your belly."
Shen Jiang looked at the two puppies and thought, "So you two are the Creation and Blessings. I have heard of you for a long time!"
New Year's Day is just a few days away, and Shen Jiang has to go to the palace with her big belly.
She walked side by side with Li, following behind the princess, to Yonghe Palace to pay a visit to Concubine De.
When she kowtowed, Shen Jiang was a little nervous. After all, she hadn't been to the palace to pay respects to Concubine De for so long. Concubine De and Yongzheng had something going on with the mother and son, so she hoped they wouldn't cause trouble for her.
Fortunately, Defei didn't pay any attention to her at all. She only talked to Ulanara and then chatted with Fourteenth's wife.
Shen Jiang and Li just sat there doing nothing. Li smiled at her and whispered, "You'll get used to it." She also pushed the snacks towards her.
Shen Jiang also smiled, but didn't dare to eat the snacks. If she ate too much and had to go to the toilet later, it would be so embarrassing.
"Is there going to be another baby in your family?" Concubine De finally remembered Shen Jiang.
Shen Jiang moved his ears and heard Concubine De asking about Ulanara.
Ulanara smiled and said, "Yes, our Nian is already seven months pregnant."
Shen Jiang couldn't pretend not to hear, so he had to step forward and kowtow again.
Concubine De nodded and said, "Your belly doesn't look big. Is it seven months?"
Shen Jiang replied: "To answer your question, it has been seven months."
De Fei calculated the date and said, "Then the baby will be born in March, right? It's just the right time for spring to be in full bloom."
Shen Jiang lowered his eyes: "Yes."
Defei looked at her belly again and said, "I have two kilograms of bird's nest here. I'll take it back and eat it later."
Shen Jiang was flattered: "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty."
When she first became pregnant, Concubine De also sent her bird's nest. It seems that there is no shortage of bird's nest in the palace!
In fact, Concubine De was worried that she only cared about her own figure and didn't care about the life and death of her child, so she deliberately didn't eat. She wanted to say something, but when she thought about her relationship with the fourth child, she didn't say anything.
Give her more food as a reward, hoping that she can understand what I mean.
When Shen Jiang left the palace, there were a lot more things, including the two kilograms of bird's nests, fish maw, shark fins, red dates and various dried fruits.
Shen Jiang looked at the princess in confusion, and the princess said, "Empress De asked you to eat more, don't let the child starve."
Shen Jiang became more and more confused: "Ah? I ate a lot!"
The princess looked at her meaningfully and said nothing more.
Shen Jiang was grumbling in his heart: A small belly is not good!
If the belly is too big, childbirth will be difficult and the mother will be the one who suffers.
Shen Jiang did not mistreat the baby in her belly. She never stopped taking folic acid, calcium tablets, fish oil, etc.
Forget it, never mind. Your body is your own anyway, so let others think whatever they want!
Since it was Concubine De's kindness, she would just accept it.
After returning to the palace, he deliberately made a presence known in front of Yongzheng: "Master, look at these, they are all given to me by the Queen. Although the Queen didn't show anything on her face, she still loves me in her heart."
Yongzheng was stunned when he saw the rewards, and said calmly: "Your Majesty has always been flawless in your work."
Shen Jiang was choked. She was not so arrogant as to think that a few words from her could ease the relationship between mother and son, so she stopped talking and opened a bag of nuts and picked a few to eat.
Shizi came closer and Shen Jiang shook his head: "You can't eat this, it will get you choked." He asked Zhaocai to bring in two beef strips for Shizi to chew on.
Shen Jiang had to go to the palace to attend the New Year's banquet again, and she still couldn't escape from kowtowing.
Fortunately, she only needs to be gone for a few days, and when she comes back, there will be spring banquets held in various mansions. Since the princess is blocking the way, Shen Jiang doesn't have to go.
However, there were concubines from other mansions who sent invitations to Li. Shen Jiang had only been married for less than a year and seldom went out often, so few people sent invitations to her.
She just had to go home once.
Nian Gengyao had just returned to Beijing to report on his work. When he saw her coming back with a big belly, he said with great concern, "If there is anything, send someone back to tell her, and your sister-in-law will come to see you. You are so heavy, don't run around in such a cold weather."
Shen Jiang smiled and said, "I didn't run around, I just came back. It's rare for my brother to come back to Beijing, I have to see him."
She didn't have anything special to tell Nian Gengyao, just to do his job well and share the emperor's worries.
When leaving the Nian family, there was an extra cart of things, all of which Nian Gengyao brought from Sichuan for his sister.
Shen Jiang sat in the car and thought: Let’s see if I can keep this brother in the future!
