My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 37 Birthday Banquet Distinguished Guests Arrive from Hanzhou

Reaching out to pick out a piece of cut peach from the fruit plate, Jiang Shishu handed it over with the silver fork engraved with plum and jade in front of him, and then he added.

"Eldest sister naturally exaggerates the young lady's good looks."

She didn't dare to say anything else, but just followed Jiang Shiyuan's words. Jiang Shiyuan saw his cousin-in-law eating a piece of peach, and then reminded him with a smile.

"Don't eat too much. These peaches are very sweet. I asked the doctor before and he said that pregnant women should avoid eating them."

Hearing this, Jiang Shishu suddenly became anxious. The young lady was carrying the first child of the Marquis Wenyuan Mansion. If something went wrong with the peach in her hand, then he should How to explain?

"I...I don't know, Madam, I didn't mean it."

Seeing that her face suddenly turned red due to nervousness, her cousin-in-law Xiang immediately patted the back of her hand and comforted her.

"Listen to her nonsense. I've been eating these peaches for several days without any problems, but she just wants to scare you. Besides, I don't eat much, so it doesn't matter."

"Sister-in-law has wronged me. I'm not talking nonsense. Why don't you ask the doctor later? But don't be afraid, third sister. It's my sister-in-law who I want to scare, not you!"

Cousin-in-law Xiang knew her temperament, and understood as soon as she heard this. She wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and then gave helpless instructions to the maid Danxing beside her.

"From now on, I will give you this fruit plate every half month. Look at this girl's mouth. If I eat more, I'm afraid she will ask my mother-in-law to come and deal with me!"

Jiang Shiyuan succeeded, so he was naturally happy, and said with a smile on his face.

"I'm also doing this for my sister-in-law's sake. If you eat too much sweet fruit, you will gain weight. It's better to have a moderate child, and you won't suffer much in the future."

Hearing this, the cousin-in-law Xiang looked over in surprise, eyes full of curiosity.

"A-Nian, how come you, a daughter of a boudoir, still know this?"

"I got it all from the doctor. This is my grandma's great-grandchild, so I naturally have to be more concerned about her."

Cousin-in-law Xiang tapped Jiang Shiyuan's forehead. Although she was reluctant to leave, she still put down the silver fork in her hand, and then she saw Danxing taking away the fruit plate.

Jiang Shiyuan continued to shake the fan in his hand, but there was some thought hidden in his eyes after he restrained himself.

In the previous life, my cousin-in-law ate too many fruits during pregnancy and overraised the child. It took her three days and three nights to give birth to the child. The child was strong, but she lost a lot of energy. , so that it fell into a trap.

When Jiang Shiyuan passed away, although her cousin-in-law Xiang was still alive, she lived a life without leaving her body. Of course she would not let her cousin-in-law go back to her old ways if she lived again, so she reminded her.

"By the way, you used peaches today. Just replace your favorite shrimp stew with stir-fried vegetables. Don't use the two things together at the same time, as it may cause stomach ache."

Cousin-in-law Xiang nodded silently after listening to Jiang Shiyuan's words. She had heard this before. When her mother learned that she was pregnant, she sent a list, which clearly recorded what items should not be allowed. Used together, and this is the list.

"Don't worry, Danxing keeps an eye on food and drink."

"That's good."

Jiang Shishu didn't understand this and could only quietly embroider the belly of the handkerchief in her hand. The boy's style of picking lotus and playing in the water was beginning to take shape. Jiang Shiyuan was not good at this, so he could only watch. From time to time, they helped to sort out the threads, and the three of them sat and talked and laughed, which was a good way to pass the time.

When Mrs. Hou Pei came over, she happened to hear a few people talking and laughing. She was so happy now that she felt refreshed.

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

"Mother-in-law." "Aunt."

"Jiang Shishu met Mrs. Hou."

Among the three, only Jiang Shishu stood up and saluted. When he saw his aunt Pei, he didn't say much. He just raised his hand to signal her to stand up, and then he sat down next to her.

With her here, Jiang Shishu naturally had to move his seat. Mrs. Pei was not surprised by her cautiousness. After sitting down, he didn't distract much, but asked his daughter-in-law.

"How's it going? How are you today?"

"Don't worry, mother-in-law, everything is fine with my daughter-in-law."

"That's good. I'm afraid you're overworked because of the birthday party."

Cousin-in-law Xiang smiled and knew her mother-in-law had good intentions, so she ordered Jiang Shiyuan and said.

"Isn't A Nian here? In fact, most of the things she helped come up with ideas, so the arrangements are well-arranged, and the daughter-in-law is just lazy at the same time. Look at it, mother-in-law, it will be a lively event by then. ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Hou's eyebrows curled up. She had always felt terrible pain for Jiang Shiyuan, but now she looked at her as if she were her own girl. She felt reluctant but happy that she had grown up. Suddenly, she remembered the reception she had just received. news, so he looked at Jiang Shiyuan slightly mysteriously and said.

"A-Nian, someone is coming from Hanzhou."

When Mrs. Hou said this, there was some teasing in her eyes, but more of it was excitement and excitement, because people from Hanzhou came for one thing only, and that was to come to propose marriage.

Jiang Shiyuan was a little surprised when she first heard the news. She didn't expect it to happen so soon. She thought she had to wait until cousin Pei returned to Hanzhou to report the situation before making next plans. , who knew someone would come from Hanzhou!

"Auntie, do you know who is coming? When will they arrive?"

"My brother wants to suppress the army, so naturally he can't come. The news in the letter is that the elder sister-in-law is here with Zi Yao and Zi Miao. They are Zi Su's brother and sister. You haven't seen them yet, but I also know these two children. Haven’t seen him for many years.”

Pei Ziyao and Pei Zimiao.

The names of the two of them are still somewhat prestigious among the Pei family's army in Hanzhou, but they don't know much about the women in the back house. Therefore, the three of them did not show any expressions of surprise. On the contrary, Mrs. Hou wanted to Be more excited.

"Then do my aunt and cousins ​​want to stay at home? If they do, my daughter-in-law will ask someone to clean up Ningrong Garden."

"No need, Zi Su's kid has already found a house and has it tidied up. By the time my sister-in-law and the others arrive, they can move in directly without us having to bother."

"A house? Cousin Pei is going to buy a house now?"

Not to mention Jiang Shiyuan, even cousin Xiang was a little surprised. This cousin was too fast. How could the house be prepared in just a few days, but they didn't know anything about it? , so he looked at Jiang Shiyuan with a mocking look on his face.

"A-Nian is the most powerful one. Isn't it just for you that cousin Pei is going to war like this? Mother-in-law, where is that house? Can we go and have a look?"

"You're pregnant, so it's better not to join in the fun. My sisters-in-law and others will naturally take care of the food when they arrive. Are you worried about going without you?"

Cousin-in-law Xiang thought about it. She stretched out her hand to touch her slightly bulging belly. Motherly love overflowed instantly. Jiang Shiyuan on the side was still stunned when Mrs. Hou continued to speak.

"My sister-in-law usually has a serious face, and she wishes she could put up a sign saying "keep away from strangers," but don't think that she is really such a cold person. In fact, she is the softest, so don't be afraid, you know?"
