Chapter 1232: Chapter 1229: Zhao Family Chapter 1232: Chapter 1229: Zhao Family Rather than letting others maliciously convey ssages to Chu Heng, she decided to write a letter herself.
After the letter was sent out, Ye Muyu still felt anxious and uneasy.
For several consecutive days, she waited to receive a reply.
She did not receive a reply, but morning sickness ca earlier than expected.
Seeing Ye Muyu vomit for the third ti today, Su i and Chun Xing beca worried.
“Madam, please eat a bit more, otherwise, what shall we do about the young master in your belly?” Chun Xing, being impatient, thought her inability to eat was due to improper food choices, “My mother, when she was pregnant, also suffered from morning sickness for a while. However, since we were poor, she would be content with just an egg and wouldn’t dare to waste it. Even if she felt like vomiting, she would endure it. After many tis, it slowly got better. Madam, would you like to try to eat a bit more?”
“Even if you vomit, there would still be sothing in your stomach.”
Ye Muyu frowned, feeling uncomfortable as she leaned on the edge of the bed, “Bring so more food over, I’ll try it.”
Although she had heard that pregnancy was difficult, it was only when she experienced it that she truly understood how uncomfortable it felt.
Su i asked, “Madam, is there anything specific you’d like to eat? The kitchen can prepare it quickly.”
“How about so spicy and sour noodles?” At the mont, she could not bear the sll of at, finding it greasy; yet she felt emptiness in her stomach, and strongly flavored foods seed too rich for her.
Seeing her clearly state what she wanted to eat, Su i hurried to instruct the kitchen to prepare it.
Ye Muyu, covering her uncomfortable stomach, saw Chun Xing bring a piece of Guihua cake. She tentatively took a bite; as soon as she did, the nausea surged again.
Chun Xing scrambled to bring a spit basin over and, seeing her vomit multiple tis, quickly patted her back while other maidservants stood by with the basin.
Amid the chaos, Ye Muyu felt even weaker and lay down on the pillows, not wanting to move.
“Ah Yu, how are you feeling today?” Madam Liu entered from outside.
She was followed by a maidservant holding several gift boxes.
“Mother, why are you here?” Ye Muyu summoned her energy.
Madam Liu waved her hand, and the maidservants opened the gift boxes and placed them on a nearby table, “These are gifts from people outside.”
“The Huo family, the Zhao family, the Elder Princess’s Mansion, and forr classmates of Ah Heng from the Hanlin Academy, as well as subordinates from the Ministry of Revenue, all sent gifts. Madam Luo also sent so fine ginseng.”
“The Zhao family?” Ye Muyu’s interest was piqued, “Has Qingqing returned?”
“I heard that even Old Master Zhao has returned.” Madam Liu, now in charge of the affairs inside and outside of the residence, also paid attention to external matters. Despite being upset about rumors surrounding Chu Heng in the capital, she was more worried about his safety and dared not miss any news.
Ye Muyu thought back to the conflict over the position of Vice Minister of Revenue before the New Year.
The Zhao family had also been involved. Although she hoped they would not get involved in the fight between the Liu and Qi families, she had to prioritize her own family.
Moreover, she did not know much about the Zhao family’s situation. Zhao Qingqing had a good temperant, but there were several branches in the Zhao family. Suddenly giving them a warning might make her appear mad and could easily cause trouble for Chu Heng.
Perhaps, whether it was because the Qi family had lost or were targeted by Duke Zheng, they had kept a low profile, and nothing significant had happened with the Zhao family.
Still, whatever decision the other party had made, they probably hadn’t given up on their plans yet.
“Who from the Zhao family sent the gifts?” Ye Muyu looked at the bird’s nest inside one of the gift boxes and curiously asked.
Madam Liu shook her head, “I didn’t notice, but it seems it was sent by the third household. As for who specifically instructed it, I don’t know.”
