Yun Jinnian sat on the bed, unable to regain her composure for a long ti.
Her undergarnts were damp and carried a faint scent of blood, Yun Jinnian’s mind beca a whirl, and she suddenly thought of sothing, calling out in haste, "Nurse, Nurse!"
The first to enter the room were Hei and Henuan, one lit the lamp while the other hurried to the bedside, asking with concern, "Miss, what’s wrong?"
Yun Jinnian bit her lip, unsure of how to explain, after all, Hei and Henuan were just children, three years younger than her.
"Nurse will be here soon, Miss, please wait a mont!" Hei consoled her.
They also slled the faint scent of blood in the room, thinking Yun Jinnian was injured, they were sowhat worried.
Then sowhat taken aback, they asked, "Miss, are you injured?"
No sooner had the words left their lips than Mrs. Yuan hurried over, her hair disheveled, "Miss, what’s happened, what’s happened?"
Yun Jinnian, with her face flushed, didn’t dare to look at Mrs. Yuan, "Nurse, I’ve started my ’Auspicious Water’!"
Mrs. Yuan was stunned for a mont, then suddenly understood, and joyfully exclaid, "Oh, good, good, Hei, Henuan, help the Miss up and change into clean underwear, I’ll go get the nstrual pads we’ve prepared!"
Without hesitation, Hei and Henuan hurriedly helped Yun Jinnian up, while Nurse went into the storeroom to get the nstrual pads prepared for Yun Jinnian.
Mrs. Yuan had these ready long ago, with clean, dried cotton as the lining and absorbent cotton cloth on the outside, each piece clean and dry, all with a faint scent of Motherwort.
Mrs. Yuan earnestly taught Yun Jinnian how to use them, with gentleness and kindness. By the ti Yun Jinnian was settled, Hei and Henuan had already cleaned the bed, Ru Yue took the dirty undergarnts and sheets out, and returned holding a hot water bottle.
Mrs. Yuan helped Yun Jinnian to the bed to sit down, letting her lean against the headboard, "Miss, you’d better rest in bed for the next few days and not eat anything cold or uncooked. As for the palace banquet tomorrow, let’s cancel it!"
Yun Jinnian had a fragile constitution in her early years, and this was her first ’Auspicious Water.’ If she didn’t take proper care, it could lead to health problems.
At Mrs. Yuan’s words, Yun Jinnian nodded slightly in agreent.
In her previous life, she didn’t have her ’Auspicious Water’ until she was seventeen or eighteen years old, and it took a lot of dicine to regulate it. She was over twenty by the ti she had children; by then, Chu Liange’s eldest illegitimate child was almost ten years old. Every ti she had her ’Auspicious Water,’ the pain would make her roll on the bed, all because she was poisoned when she was ten.
Before, with no one to rely on, she couldn’t investigate, but now that she had people, Yun Jinnian intended to find out who in the residence was plotting against her.
"Hei, tomorrow morning, have Uncle Cheng take you to the Princess Residence to explain things to the Princess, and as for the palace banquet, the Emperor would probably not wish for to enter the palace!"
For n, a woman’s ’Auspicious Water’ is considered impure.
Generally speaking, they wouldn’t even share a room; they would keep their distance.
Hei assented.
To everyone’s surprise, Yaniang brought over brown sugar eggs, Mrs. Yuan chuckled and let Yaniang bring them in. After washing her hands and smoking them over the incense burner, Mrs. Yuan personally fed Yun Jinnian.
"Nurse, I’m not so delicate!"
"Silly child, this is your first ti; naturally, you need to be properly nourished. It’ll be much easier later on!"
With a warm hot water bottle on her belly, Yun Jinnian smiled gently, listening to Mrs. Yuan’s tender words.
She took every single one of them to heart.
After eating the sweetened egg, Yun Jinnian felt her entire body warm, "Nurse, you go to sleep, I’m fine!"
