The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

The two of them entered the back house under the guidance of the maid, but before they reached the hall, they heard a fierce quarrel coming from the yard.

Ye Yuxiao listened for a while and frowned. This was the voice of Kong Mingyue's mother-in-law Yan and Kong Mingyue: "Mingyue is pregnant. Why is her mother-in-law still arguing with her? She is not afraid that she may have fetal motility." ?”

She was afraid that Kong Mingyue would suffer a loss, so she urged the maid who was leading the way to speed up and go to the yard.

In the courtyard, in the cold wind, Kong Mingyue and Yan stood on the east side and the other on the west side, arguing face to face.

Ye Yuxiao didn't wait to hear clearly what they were arguing about, and walked over quickly, took Kong Mingyue's arm, and scolded her: "If you want to quarrel, you should go to the house to quarrel. If others don't feel sorry for you, you You should feel sorry for yourself. If you hold your belly open and blow the cold wind, if you get sick, it will be you who will be harmed."

Before Kong Mingyue could answer, Mrs. Yan sneered: "There is no reason why my mother-in-law is standing in the yard while my daughter-in-law has to go back to the house first. You must explain this matter to me clearly today, otherwise you will not be allowed in."

Ye Yuxiao didn't bother to talk to her at all, and walked towards the house with Kong Mingyue on his arm.

Yan stepped forward to stop her, but Ouyang Sheng stepped in front of her, blocking her way.

"King Yingchuan, what are you doing?" Yan said with a long face, "No matter how powerful you are, you can't care about other people's family affairs."

"Did I take care of it?" Ouyang Sheng looked surprised, "Why, I can even stay in the emperor's study room, but I can't stand in your yard?"

Yan was so choked that she couldn't speak. She finally realized that when it came to quarreling, she and Ouyang Sheng were not on the same level, so she could only say: "Then please go to the study in the front yard to sit and drink tea, and I will teach my daughter-in-law a lesson. "

"Is Xue Fu at home?" Ouyang Sheng asked.

"He is still in the Hubu Yamen and has not come back." Mrs. Yan answered him patiently.

"Since Xue Fu is not here, what kind of tea should I go to the front yard study to drink?" Ouyang Sheng said, seeing that Ye Yuxiao and Kong Mingyue had already entered the hall, he stepped out of the way, "Isn't Mrs. Yan going to teach her daughter-in-law a lesson? , go, let me see it quickly."

Mrs. Yan originally wanted to leave Kong Mingyue in the yard, but ended up following her into the house. This made her unhappy, but she had no choice but to go in with a dark face.

Ouyang Sheng followed her into the hall and sat next to Ye Yuxiao.

Yan ordered people to serve tea to Ouyang Sheng and Ye Yuxiao, stared at Kong Mingyue who was sitting on the other side of Ye Yuxiao and said: "Mother-in-law is here, is there a place for you to sit? Don't think that you are pregnant. We don’t have to make any rules anymore.”

Kong Mingyue ignored her and turned to Ye Yuxiao: "Princess, don't pay attention to her. She just wants to shake off the power of her mother-in-law. No one will listen to her. I was so angry just now that I just said it in the yard Start arguing with her."

"What are you arguing with her about?" Ye Yuxiao asked.

"My brother was sick the year Yuanyang was born." Kong Mingyue said.

"It's all because you treated him harshly that he fell ill." Yan interrupted, "Since you became pregnant, you started to dislike him, and you didn't feed him enough and didn't keep him warm. How could he not get sick? ?”

"That's what I call scientific parenting. I don't deny him enough food or clothing. Don't talk nonsense." Kong Mingyue retorted to her.

After she finished speaking, she said to the maid on the side: "Go and bring the food and drinks that Madam gives Brother Nian to eat every day, and show them to the prince and princess."

The maid quickly brought several trays. Ye Yuxiao took a look and saw that one tray was filled with greasy chicken, duck and fish, another tray was filled with tonic supplements such as velvet antler, ginseng, and bird's nest, and another tray was filled with milk and tea. and juice.

Kong Mingyue said: "My mother-in-law only feeds Brother Nian these things every day. Brother Nian doesn't want to eat vegetables, so she obeys him and doesn't give him a single vegetable leaf. Brother Nian doesn't want to drink plain water, so she just Give her milk, tea and juice, but this tea is very strong, stronger than the tea I drink. Prince, princess, you guys can judge, will the child not get sick in the long run?"

"It was for Brother Nian's sake that I forced him to eat vegetables and drink plain water, but my mother-in-law said that I was abusing him. It was obvious that she had harmed the child, but she wronged me instead. I couldn't be more angry. Today, I forced him to eat vegetables and drink plain water. She stopped her in the yard and argued with her."

Is this a disagreement in parenting concepts? Ye Yuxiao really didn't expect that they would quarrel because of this, and couldn't help but think of herself. What should she do if her mother-in-law dotes on her children like this in the future?

Ouyang Sheng leaned over and whispered to her: "This is a household matter of the Xue family. Since the Yan family is not torturing Kong Mingyue, let's not get involved, right?"

They had to support Kong Mingyue, but they didn't even have to get involved in the upbringing of their bastard. He didn't have the spare time, and he didn't want to devote his energy to such a thing.

Ye Yuxiao felt that he was right. As Kong Mingyue's master, she should not interfere with her family affairs. But she believed that as a doctor, she should fulfill her duties, so she said to Yan: "As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs. I don't want to judge whether you and Mingyue are right or wrong, but since the child He is already ill, so I still recommend asking a doctor to come to your home to take a look at the child and nurse him back to health. And I suggest not to see a doctor from Mingche Medical Center or Huairen Medical Center, lest you think they are biased towards Mingyue."

"Why did the child become sick? How should we raise him in the future that is best for his health? I think you should stop arguing and just listen to the doctor."

Mrs. Yan seemed to think that what she said made sense and did not refute it.

Ye Yuxiao was slightly relieved. As far as she knew, no matter how good their medical skills were, the doctors of the Xi Dynasty believed in raising children by eating eighty cents full and leaving three cents cold, which was quite scientific. I hope that Mrs. Yan, who dotes on her grandson, can listen to her and change the way she raises her grandson after asking a doctor.

Immediately, Ye Yuxiao held Ouyang Sheng's hand, stood up, and said to Kong Mingyue: "Let's go, it's a rare visit for me to come and sit in your room."

Kong Mingyue happily agreed and took them to her small courtyard.

After the three of them sat down in the small hall, Ye Yuxiao once again blamed Kong Mingyue for not cherishing her: "It is true that children cannot be raised like your mother-in-law. You are right to argue with her, but you cannot let yourself stand in the cold wind. Here. You are twins now, so you have to think about the child in your belly."

"Princess taught you a lesson." Kong Mingyue lowered her head and admitted her mistake.

Ye Yuxiao sighed secretly and asked her, "Do you regret it?"

"There is nothing to regret." Kong Mingyue said, "Now that my mother-in-law can no longer take charge at home, I am living a pretty good life. Now that I am pregnant with my child, I have no regrets."

Ye Yuxiao wanted to ask her, was she happy to help raise the concubine's child, worry about the concubine's child, and have a conflict with her mother-in-law because of this child?

But she felt that asking these questions was in vain, so she didn't say anything.

Kong Mingyue touched her belly, then looked at Ye Yuxiao's, a little surprised: "Princess, your belly is only a few months old, how come it has so quickly caught up with mine, which is more than five months old?"

"It's just three months today." Ye Yuxiao said, standing up so that she could see her belly clearly.
