Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 504 Koi
Under Yun Hao's arrangement, Zhao Wangshu was completely unaware of the ups and downs in the court, and her life was peaceful.

Even when Yao Shanzhi came to see her, they only talked about interesting things and never mentioned the disputes and undercurrents in the court.

That day, Yao Shanzhi came again and brought a lifelike candy man. "Yue'er, look, what is this?"

Zhao Wangshu heard this and looked back. It was a cute little rabbit, crystal clear. "Oh, this rabbit is so cute."

As he spoke, he took the candy figure and took a light bite. Sweetness instantly blossomed on the tip of his tongue, and it seemed as if even his mood became as light as the candy.

"I see your belly, it seems to be getting bigger." Yao Shanzhi reached out to touch Zhao Wangshu's belly, "Yeah, it's moving."

Zhao Wangshu smiled and said, "They moved yesterday. The two little guys moved violently. I suspect they were fighting."

"From what you said, they must be two boys." Yao Shanzhi pouted.

"That's not necessarily true. Girls can also be lively and active." Zhao Wangshu gently stroked his abdomen and said with a smile.

Yao Shanzhi took the teacup from Lan Fen, took a sip, and said, "Then we'll have a son and a daughter. The son will be born first, and the daughter will be born later. This way, two brothers will love one sister."

The two chatted casually. At noon, it was time for lunch. When Xiao Yunyu didn't come back, Yao Shanzhi asked, "Where's Yu'er?"

"He went with the master to see the foals, and won't be back for lunch today." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

"Speaking of foals, I remembered that I had someone keep a foal of a Arabian horse. I plan to take Yu'er to see it in a few days." Yao Shanzhi said.

Zhao Wangshu picked up a piece of fish and put it in Yao Shanzhi's bowl, and said with a smile: "He is still young and can't ride a horse yet, so there is no need to give him a pony."

"When he grows up and can ride, I will have to prepare the saddle and whip for him." Yao Shanzhi said proudly.

"You, just spoil him." Zhao Wangshu said angrily while drinking chicken soup.

"He's my godson, so of course I have to pamper him." Yao Shanzhi reached out and touched Zhao Wangshu's face, "I pamper you too."

Zhao Wangshu raised his eyebrows, "Give me a pony too?"

Yao Shanzhi looked at her big belly and said, "You can't ride a horse now, so what do you need a pony for? I'll give you a pair of colorful koi. You can put them in the pond in the back garden. You can go and look at them when you take a walk. How nice."

"Okay, thank you very much." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

Yao Shanzhi gnawed on a chicken leg and said, "Hey, why are you being so polite to me?"

After dinner, Yao Shanzhi helped Zhao Wangshu to take a walk in the back garden. Smelling the sweet osmanthus, Yao Shanzhi swallowed his saliva and said, "Yue'er, I want to eat sweet osmanthus cake."

"You're hungry again after just finishing lunch?" Zhao Wangshu looked at her in surprise.

"I'm not hungry, I'm just greedy." Yao Shanzhi laughed.

"I haven't made the osmanthus cake yet. I asked the cook to make pumpkin cakes, sesame crisps and honey raw milk rolls. You can take some back to eat later." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

"I know what pumpkin cakes and sesame crisps are, but what is this honey and raw milk roll?" Yao Shanzhi asked curiously.

Zhao Wangshu explained, and Yao Shanzhi drooled. "Hearing you say that, I know this must be delicious. I'll bring more."

"How about I fill two drawers for you?" Zhao Wangshu said with a doting smile.

Yao Shanzhi hugged her, "Yue'er, you are the best."

After the walk, Zhao Wangshu returned to his room and wanted to take a nap. Yao Shanzhi happily went home with two large boxes of snacks. The next day, the servants of the princess's mansion brought a large wooden barrel, which contained two colorful koi carps that Yao Shanzhi gave to Zhao Wangshu.

Lan Fen led the group and carried the wooden barrel to the pond in the back garden. "Pour the koi in."

The sunlight filtered through the sparse clouds, dappled onto the pond in the back garden, making the waves sparkle. Two koi fish entered the water, wagged their tails, and swam away.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lan Fen gave each of the four servants a red envelope and sent them away. She went into the yard and reported the matter to Zhao Wangshu.

Zhao Wangshu sat on a reclining chair in the corridor, half closing his eyes, listening to the pianist playing the piano.

"Young Madam." Lan Fen walked up to her and called softly.

Zhao Wangshu opened his eyes and asked, "Is it done?"

"It's done. I counted them and found that the koi really has seven colors." Lan Fen's eyes were sparkling with curiosity and excitement. "I have never seen such colorful fish before. It's really an eye-opener."

Zhao Wangshu had never seen a colorful koi before, so Lan Fen's words piqued his interest. "Let's go and take a look."

While Zhao Wangshu was sitting by the pond and looking at the colorful koi, Wu Lin'er was sitting in the pavilion with an expressionless face, throwing fish food and watching the fish in the water fighting for the food.

"Princess, Madam Hua is here." The maid said in a low voice.

Wu Lin'er turned her head and saw Zhao Jiahua, leaning on his waist with his belly not yet showing, walking slowly towards him, with a flash of hatred in his eyes.

"My concubine greets the princess. Long live the princess." Zhao Jiahua bowed perfunctorily.

"Didn't Madam Hua say that she felt uncomfortable in her stomach last night? Why didn't you stay in bed and rest? What are you doing outside?" Wu Lin'er asked coldly.

Yesterday was the first day of the new year, the fixed time for Prince Zuo to go to Wu Lin'er's courtyard. However, before the two of them had time to celebrate, Zhao Jiahua's maid came running and said that Zhao Jiahua had a stomachache and wanted to ask the palace doctor to take his pulse.

Prince Zuo was concerned about the child, so he followed him and then rested in Zhao Jiahua's yard.

A concubine snatched someone from the wife and was too arrogant. Now she even dared to show off in front of her. Wu Lin'er's face was gloomy and ugly.

The corners of Zhao Jiahua's mouth curled up into a smug smile, but it disappeared in an instant. She put on a pitiful look and said softly, "Princess, what I am teaching you is that I was just thinking that yesterday's incident was probably caused by me making a fuss and disturbing the pleasure of the prince and princess. I feel very sorry, so I came here today to apologize and want to explain to the princess in person."

Wu Lin'er sneered in her heart. This Zhao Jiahua was really good at pretending, but she remained calm on her face and said lightly: "Explanation? There is nothing to explain to me. The heir is the most important thing. This princess will not care about such a small matter."

"Your Highness is magnanimous. It is I who am narrow-minded. I will go back now and continue to take care of my pregnancy so as not to worry Your Highness anymore." Zhao Jiahua turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait." Wu Lin'er suddenly spoke up and stopped Zhao Jiahua.

She walked slowly to Zhao Jiahua, staring at her belly with deep eyes. If the prince had not valued this child, she would have taken action long ago.

"Madam Hua, I hope you can give birth to the baby safely. But you must also remember that I am the princess. You'd better keep your identity in mind and don't do anything to disappoint the prince and me." Wu Lin'er's tone was full of threats.

Zhao Jiahua's heart trembled, and she bowed her head and said, "I understand. I will be careful in what I say and do, and live up to the princess's expectations."

After saying this, she bowed hastily and left the pavilion with her maid.

Wu Lin'er looked at her back with a gloomy look.
