Mrs. Chen quickly helped Yun Jiao sit down, and Gu Yuheng glanced back at her, "You’ve been gone for two days, we’ve been worried sick."
"We didn’t dare to ask, and didn’t know whom to enquire."
"It was only just now when Big Girl returned, that we found out."
Lady Wu reached out a hand and held Yun Jiao’s hand, "Thank goodness, narrowly escaped a disaster."
Yun Jiao nodded and tried to smile at Lady Wu.
She needed to be more cheerful, lest poor mood might affect the baby’s brain developnt.
She quickly adjusted her mood, reached into her pockets for a small box, and started eating the dried fish inside. Pregnant won crave food and get hungry easily.
This was the last bit of dried fish. After traveling for more than twenty days, the dried at and fish in Yun Jiao’s pharmacy were all consud.
Ruru saw this and reached out to Yun Jiao babbling, seemingly wanting so too.
Yun Jiao patted her head, "Good girl, you can’t eat this."
Ruru drooled while persistently reaching out to Yun Jiao, suddenly she clearly said, "Seven––"
Everyone in the carriage was stunned for a mont and then burst into laughter.
Lady Wu poked Ruru’s nose, "You’re quite the little glutton, saying ’eat’ as your first word!"
"Why didn’t you say ’Mom’ instead?"
Ruru saw the adults laughing, felt even more pleased and started babbling, "Seven seven seven seven––"
Lady Wu laughed for a mont, "You just nursed not long ago, can’t be hungry yet."
Mrs. Chen, with much experience, said from the side, "Not hungry, just craving."
"By the way, has this child started eating solids yet?"
Lady Wu was puzzled, "What does it an to start eating solids?"
Mrs. Chen said, "It’s when you start giving her so broth or porridge with oil and salt to wet her lips. Afterwards, besides milk, she can start eating porridge with oil and salt."
Only now Yun Jiao rembered, Ruru is already nine months old, ready for baby food.
Egg custard, vegetable at porridge, she can eat a bit. Simply breastfeeding can no longer et her body’s growth needs.
However, there’s simply no way to get eggs or at here, Yun Jiao sighed, "Today we’ll start solids for Ruru, let’s cook so wild vegetable porridge with a little salt."
Lady Wu felt a bit lancholic, Ruru, who should be the noble Miss of Duke Mansion, could only eat wild vegetable porridge to start solids.
Yun Jiao thought for a mont and called to the front, "Dad, later when cooking lunch, see if you can find so officer in charge of supplies to get so eggs or at."
"We’re running low on flour too, best to get so flour as well."
She reached up and pulled out a golden hairpin from her hair, which a maid had put in for her earlier at the traveling palace.
Gu Yuheng turned around, took the hairpin and put it into his arms, "Okay, I’ll go ask around at noon."
At noon, when the convoy stopped, Gu Yuheng headed over to the supply transportation team.
He returned with a small bag after a short while.
Excitedly, he opened the bag to show Yun Jiao, it contained quite a number of eggs and a piece of at.
It was hot, and the at couldn’t be kept, so once the al was ready, it was cooked as a whole piece in water, then salted and everyone tore off a piece to eat.
Lady Wu tore off a small strip of salted at for Ruru to lick, Ruru waved her little hands eagerly trying to grab the piece, making the nurse and Lady Wu laugh.
