Chapter 399 Hongxuan is missing
The eldest wife held the chopsticks with a somewhat empty look in her eyes, and casually picked up the dish in front of her and put it into her mouth.
Just then, she caught a glimpse of the small bowl of yokan placed in front of her.
She stood up instantly and brought the bowl of lamb soup to her mother, Mrs. Tong.
Mrs. Tong is a gentle person by nature, but her blood circulation has not been very good in recent years. Every night, she has trouble falling asleep eight out of ten nights.
For this reason, the family would often specially prepare some fresh and delicious yokan for Mrs. Tong to nourish her body.
The eldest wife wondered which maid had put the yokan in front of her today.
Although Madam Tong is not the biological mother of the First Lady, her kindness in raising her is greater than heaven!
Mrs. Tong looked at the small lamb soup handed to her and a smile immediately broke out on her face.
Suddenly, as if she remembered something important, she slapped her forehead and shouted loudly:
"Oh my, look at my memory, I actually forgot about this matter!
Yanhong, go to the kitchen and see if the new dish is ready."
Just as he finished speaking, a moment later, Yanhong came slowly towards him with a light green, exquisite large bowl in her hand, smiling.
When the girl gently lifted the lid of the bowl, everyone's attention was instantly attracted!
I don’t know who came up with this clever idea: those small, exquisite, fresh and juicy green lotus pods were actually carved from dough!
And this is the delicious lotus leaf and lotus seed porridge!
Mrs. Tong pointed to the eldest wife with a smile on her face, and turned to the maid and said:
"Hurry up, let Bijun taste it first!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the eldest wife hurriedly stood up and stretched out her hands to take the bowl of steaming lotus leaf and lotus seed porridge.
In an instant, a warm feeling surged into my heart, as if the warm sunshine of spring was shining into my heart.
The haze that had been lingering in the heart of the eldest lady in recent days disappeared at this moment!
Mr. Tong usually has a serious face, but today he looks so gentle for some reason.
He stared at the eldest wife and said slowly, "Look, how come this child has become so thin!"
After saying that, he turned around and ordered the maid, "Hurry up and get the most tender part of the steamed mandarin fish for the young lady!"
Upon hearing this, the eldest wife quickly stood up again and stretched out her hand to block the small plate full of food in front of her.
She tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said softly:
"Father, Mother, I am so grateful that Bijun can sit down and have a meal with you!"
However, Master Tong only glanced at her indifferently, as if he didn't listen to her words, and kept muttering to himself:
"It's because I was too worried about my husband over there that I tortured my Jun'er to this point..."
Memories of the past suddenly flooded into her mind. Those memories hidden in the most beautiful corners of Dafujin's heart were like shining pearls, piecing together Dafujin's broken heart in an instant!
After the meal, the eldest wife felt as if she had a backer!
Before returning to his room, Master Tong said to Fu Jin with a profound meaning:
"Since you're here, stay a little longer and spend some time with your mother!"
The eldest wife smiled and nodded. She didn't even know how she walked back to the room!
In a trance, she turned into the girl she was before she got married. She didn't know her own life experience, nor the hardships that would come in the future. She was just a lady from a noble family who was detached from the mundane world!
Daiyu's belly seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.
Early that morning, the sky was gray, as if it was going to rain, and the outside seemed to be shrouded in a layer of light fog.
She prepared to get out of bed as usual.
However, when she tried to put her feet into the shoes, she was surprised to find that her feet were swollen. No matter how she put them on, the shoes that originally fit her feet could no longer accommodate her feet!
Daiyu frowned slightly. Zijuan, who was standing by, saw this and couldn't help laughing. She went out and found her a pair of bigger shoes.
After Daiyu put on the shoes, she slowly stood up and walked to the dressing mirror.
After standing still, she looked at the woman in the mirror and saw a woman with a big belly in the mirror.
That pretty face seemed to have some tiny freckles.
The bulging belly made her whole figure look extremely bloated.
Seeing herself like this, Daiyu was stunned and speechless for a long time.
It took her a long time to come back to her senses, she lowered her head and began to look at her waist.
I don’t have any waist now!
She couldn't help but touch the fat on her waist with her hand, muttering to herself:
"How could he be so fat? It's only been a few months..."
Zijuan knew Daiyu loved beauty, so she quickly took up a thin cloak and put it on Daiyu, smiling and comforting her:
"It's inevitable to gain weight during pregnancy. It will be fine after the baby is born!"
Zijuan helped Daiyu walk out of the house and went to see the prince. The prince was in much better health now and could get out of bed and walk around the house.
Daiyu thought: The sky is gloomy and it is about to rain, so I should go there early.
Xiaowan opened the gate as usual, and there seemed to be something standing on the tree branch in front.
She thought she was dazzled and quickly rubbed her eyes with her hands. She looked carefully for a while, and sure enough, there was a small animal hanging on the tree.
She hurried to the big tree in front of the door, and unexpectedly, she saw a dead parrot hanging on the tree!
This parrot is the one that shouts "Fujin Jixiang" and it is the parrot that Daiyu gave to Hongjin to play with!
Xiaowan suddenly felt a little pain in her heart. She picked up the parrot from the tree and gently combed its feathers with her hands. Its big open eyes seemed to be still accusing her of all this!
Who, who on earth made this parrot like this?
Before she could come to her senses, she heard Daiyu and Zijuan coming out talking and laughing.
Xiaowan hid the dead parrot in her sleeve without thinking, for fear that Daiyu would be heartbroken if she knew.
Daiyu looked at Xiaowan standing under the tree in despair, and said to Zijuan with a smile:
"Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up. Look, this girl has something on her mind!"
Xiaowan ran over quickly, took Daiyu's arm, and said with a smile:
"The girl is getting worse. From whom did she learn these nonsense? She teases us every day!"
The three of them, master and servant, soon arrived at the study.
The prince now has a rosy complexion and is full of energy. At this moment, he has already instructed Xiao Luzi and others to prepare food and is waiting for Daiyu to come and eat.
The prince meant that he would move to Daiyu's room after he had recovered from the recent cold weather. However, it was still very cold in spring, and he was afraid that he would catch a cold and infect Daiyu, which would be bad!
When he saw Daiyu coming, he hurried over with a smile and helped her sit down on the chair.
Zijuan and Xiaowan couldn't help but smile at each other and joked:
"Your Majesty, is the baby in Fu Jin's belly a boy or a girl?"
The prince's face instantly turned red, and he said awkwardly:
"You girls, don't you know my heart? Even if Yu'er gave birth to a wooden lump for me, I would still be willing!"
At this time, the little girls who were cleaning, Zijuan and Xiaowan, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Suddenly, Xiao Luzi pushed the door open and rushed in, shouting:
"Oh no, oh no, Your Majesty, the prince is missing!
"Nanny and Cailian have been searching all morning, but they can't find Hongxuan anywhere!"
Everyone was stunned. Hongxuan was missing? Was this not a dream?
Just at this moment, the dead parrot in Xiaowan's sleeve suddenly fell out and landed on the floor of the study.
The prince felt as if someone was stabbing his wound with a knife. He endured the pain, slammed the table and shouted:
"The prince is missing?
What do the people in Tong Jia's room eat?
Send more people to look for him immediately, even if it means turning the capital upside down, we must find him!"
And the dead parrot on the ground, with its slightly opened mouth and big eyes that were still open, seemed to be telling people something!
The parrot is dead, Hongxuan is missing, what other unknown dangers are waiting for them?
Daiyu felt her eyes go dark and she fainted amid the maids' shouts.
