Chapter 1552: Chapter 1559: Marriage Alliance (3)
Because she was moved, Cai Wei couldn’t help but speak well of her man in front of the children: “Babies, your father is so good to you! The vegetables and food we eat every day now are all personally grown by your father for us!”
Receiving praise from his wife, Nangong Yi beca even more enthusiastic. He gently spoke to the various-sized bumps on her stomach, “As long as you all stay obedient and listen, your father will not only grow food for you to eat, but when you grow up, he’ll even teach you martial arts…”
As soon as martial arts were ntioned, the little ones in the stomach started fluttering around, as if they were injected with chicken blood, making many large and small bumps rise on Cai Wei’s stomach. Who knew whether they were small fists, little feet, knees, or heads?
“Ouch!”
Cai Wei cried out, clutching her stomach, genuinely worried that these little troublemakers might puncture her stomach.
Seeing Cai Wei furrow her brows and her stomach rise and fall unevenly, Nangong Yi couldn’t help but frown as well. He issued a low warning: “Little brats, stop bullying your mother. Otherwise, when you co out, your father will deal with each of you one by one.”
After these words, the movent in Cai Wei’s stomach noticeably quieted down. Nangong Yi said with satisfaction, “Hmm, since you seem to be listening, Father will make sweet and sour fish and spicy shredded chicken for you all later…”
True to his word, Nangong Yi got up after soaking long enough and went outside to cook for Cai Wei.
It’s said that sour cravings suggest boys, and spicy cravings suggest girls, but Cai Wei’s tastes were peculiar. She loved both sour and spicy food and couldn’t eat als without them. Her appetite had grown significantly, almost insatiable—a bottomless pit—about two or three tis her previous food intake. Her figure had also beco fuller, though not bulky.
Perhaps won are truly beautiful during pregnancy. Cai Wei’s complexion had beco even more porcelain-like, and her face always carried a sacred radiance. At tis, Nangong Yi felt her beauty was almost unreal, as if she was sculpted from snow, ready to lt at a re touch.
After Nangong Yi went outside, Cai Wei quickly followed suit. She dried herself off and only wore a loose robe, wandering all around in the space. The al would take a while to be ready, but she was already hungry.
“Hmm, what should I eat?”
She picked a pink, plump flat peach from the peach tree and began crunching away. The peach’s juice was abundant, its skin thin, and its flesh crisp—sweet to the core. After finishing one, she picked a bunch of grapes from the grape rack and sat under it, swinging her legs while she ate. As she ate, she pondered: She had heard it said that pregnant won should eat more nuts, but unfortunately, the space didn’t have any. It seed she’d have to ask her man to plant so tomorrow.
Since Nangong Yi ca to the space, Chang i’s workload had beco much lighter. Most of the work had been taken over by Nangong Yi. He didn’t see these tasks as burdens but as pieces of enjoynt. Whenever he focused on farming, he felt fully relaxed, as though his entire being was tightly connected with the space itself…
…
The husband and wife leisurely stayed in the space, completely unaware of the chaos unfolding inside the Jade Palace.
The Empress Dowager Mo had learned that Nangong Yu had secretly written a letter to Helan Qi and was so furious she nearly lost her mind. She sent people to summon Nangong Yu, and without giving her a chance to explain, slapped her across the face.
Nangong Yu stumbled from the slap, nearly falling to the ground. She held her face and complained with grievance, “Mother, why did you hit ?”
“How dare you ask!”
The Empress Dowager Mo trembled with rage. “Back then, when you secretly t Saknu, you caused a monuntal disaster. Although Mother was embarrassed and punished along with you, I never uttered a harsh word to you because I knew you were inexperienced, montarily foolish, and bound to learn your lesson from that massive mistake. However, now Mother realizes—you’re just an incorrigible fool incapable of learning anything! No matter how much you suffer, you remain a hopeless imbecile who never takes the lessons to heart!”
