Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce
Chapter 324 - Return to the Qiao family for New Year’s EveChapter 324: Chapter 324: Return to the Qiao family for New Year’s Eve
Eldest Princess Jing Hua and Lin Mo’s wedding date was at the beginning of March. There were still more than three months to go.
However, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Rites had already started to get busy. They had chosen the address to be the Fuma’s residence.
When Madam Lin heard that Lin Mo was going to live with his parents after his wedding, she became even more displeased.
On New Year’s Eve, when Madam Lin entered the palace as her wife to attend the palace banquet, she heard Madam Hong Yang Say:
“This time, eldest Princess Jing Hua is able to marry Prime Minister Lin You. The Empress has put in a lot of effort.”
When Madam Lin heard this, she clenched her hands tightly and listened to the madams at the side discussing the matter of the princess meeting her husband..
When some sharp-eyed madams saw that Madam Lin had arrived, they all signaled for the madams beside them to keep quiet.
When Madam Lin heard this, she was extremely angry and sat on the position of the head of her wife.
It was unknown which female official had arranged the positions, but above Madam Lin’s position was the eldest princess of Jinghua.
When madam Lin smelled the decadent fragrance on the eldest princess, her head hurt.
She had thought that it was the emperor’s idea, but it turned out that it was the Empress’s idea.
Could it be that Prime Minister Lin had sent an excerpt some time ago to let the Emperor marry a concubine and offended the Empress?
He had made the Empress spend a lot of effort to find this extremely lousy marriage for Lin Mo!
Yue Zhu had been in Chang ‘an for many days, and she had become good friends with Hong Yang’s daughter, Hong Qifeng.
Today, at the palace banquet, the two were close, so they sat together.
Yue Zhu stretched her head and said, “Why hasn’t his majesty and the Empress Come Yet?”
Hong Qifeng smiled lightly and said, “Is this your first time seeing the Empress?”
Yue Zhu shook her head and said, “No, His Majesty and the Empress came to Longxi last year, and I saw the Empress in Longxi. The Empress is very beautiful. No Wonder His Majesty is willing to favor the six palaces and no longer take concubines for her.”

The two little girls were not the only ones waiting for the empress to come.
There were also some noble girls who did not give up and wanted to enter the palace. They just waited, but when the Empress felt unwell, the palace banquet was canceled today.
In the Changle Palace.
Lady Qiao Jin felt very uncomfortable in her heart. She wanted to vomit, but she could not.
Hong Ling, who was waiting on the side, guessed, “Is the Empress pregnant again?”
Qiao Jinniang shook her head. “It shouldn’t be.”
Being pregnant in succession was harmful to her body. Even if she wanted to have a daughter, she had no intention of having another child before Ang ‘er was three years old.
Moreover, xi ‘er was still young. If another child came, Qiao Jinniang was afraid that she would be overwhelmed and biased against the children.
Lu Chen brought the imperial physician in. He sat beside Lady Qiao and held her hand tightly. “Why are your hands so cold?”
Lady Qiao said to Lu Chen, “There’s a palace banquet in the palace today. You’d better hurry and go.
“You haven’t been going outside and you don’t dare to hold a banquet. We’ll hold the banquet earlier today on New Year’s Eve and have them return to the manor to reunite.”
Lu Chen was worried about Lady Qiao and said, “I’ve already ordered people to cancel today’s palace banquet.”
Lu Chen immediately asked the court chief to check Lady Qiao’s pulse.
After the court chief checked her pulse, he said slightly, “Your Majesty’s pulse is showing signs of slipping.”
Lady Qiao frowned slightly and said, “How can that be? We clearly...”
In front of the imperial physician, Lady Qiao was embarrassed to talk about the matters in the room.
Lu Chen did not care and said to the imperial physician, “After I have sex with the empress, I will try my best not to get pregnant.”
Lu Chen remembered that after giving birth to Xi’er, the midwife had said that it was best not to get pregnant in succession.
Furthermore, when Lady Jin gave birth to her first child, she was only sixteen years old. It would be better if she gave birth to another child every two to three years in the future.
The imperial physician said, “Other than using medicine, the other methods can not be completely free of pregnancy.
“However, your Majesty’s pulse is still shallow and we can not confirm it. I wonder if your Majesty still feels uncomfortable?”
“It’s just that I feel nauseous and want to throw up. I feel like something is falling in my stomach.”
Qiao jinniang clutched her lower abdomen, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
The imperial physician checked Qiao Jinniang’s pulse again, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression, “What did your Majesty eat for breakfast and lunch today?”
Hong Ling answered from the side, “Your Majesty wrapped sesame rice balls today, and ate about ten of them. She also ate a bowl of osmanthus wine fermented rice balls...”
The imperial physician:”...”
Lu Chen looked helplessly at Qiao Jinniang. “Even if you love eating rice balls, you shouldn’t eat so many of them at once.”
This wasn’t the first time that she felt uncomfortable eating rice balls.
The imperial physician cupped his hands and said, “In that case, the slippery meridian corresponds to delayed eating. I will write a prescription to strengthen the stomach and digest food. After the imperial concubine takes it, she will carefully adjust it.”
Qiao Jinniang said, “Thank you, imperial physician.”
“You are welcome, Your Highness.”
After the imperial physician left, Lu Chen said, “Glutinous rice balls are easy to accumulate food. Why do you eat so much?”
Although he complained, he still rubbed his thumb for Qiao Jinniang. In the past, when Qiao Jinniang accumulated food, a doctor had said that pressing this acupuncture point was useful.
Qiao jinniang said, “I haven’t eaten for a long time. Chang ‘an doesn’t like to eat this. Today, I finally made some and couldn’t hold it in for a while.”
Lu Chen stood up with Qiao Jinniang and said, “After you take the medicine, I’ll take you outside the Palace to digest your food.”
“Today is New Year’s Eve. What’s there to see outside the palace?”Qiao jinniang said, “Every family is reunited.”
Lu Chen said, “I’ll take you back to the Qiao estate to reunite.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQiao Jinniang had never been reunited with the Qiao family for long.
After getting married, Zheng Xiao could only occasionally visit the palace. There were so many things going on in Marquis an Yuan’s estate, Fu Lu was pregnant, and Zheng Xiao couldn’t stay in the palace for long.
Today, it was time for Qiao Jinniang to return to the manor to reunite.
Qiao Jinniang’s eyes lit up, and she smiled. “Alright!”
..
In the manor of Marquis an Yuan, Zheng Xiao’s face was filled with worry. The New Year’s Eve banquet in the palace had never been canceled.
It was unknown what serious illness the Jinniang had contracted that day, and there had been no news from the palace.
It wasn’t until the gatekeeper stumbled and rushed into the hall to report that second aunt and second son-in-law had returned that the members of the Qiao family still hadn’t reacted to this form of address.
When Old Madam Qiao came to her senses, she said, “Quick, go to the door to welcome them!”
After Qiao Jinniang and Lu Chen entered, everyone bowed profusely. Qiao Jinniang held Old Madam Qiao and Zheng Xiao and said, “There’s no need for formalities.”
Zheng Xiao asked worriedly, “How is the Empress’s Health?”
Qiao jinniang replied, “It’s already much better. That’s why I came out of the palace. How come I don’t see Fu Lu, Ah Lui, and Ruo Yi?”
Zheng Xiao said, “Fu Lu and Ah Lui have gone back to the eldest princess’residence for dinner. They’ll be back soon.
As for Ruyi, she said that since the date of Enke has been set, she’ll go back to the West Mountain to study. From the looks of it, she’s definitely going to take the female scholar exam.”
Qiao Jinniang smiled faintly and said, “Ah Lui’s heart yearns for the position of female scholar. If Ruyi gets it, it’ll be our Qiao family’s ancestors burning incense.”
Marquis an Yuan snorted lightly. “It’s just a girl’s game! When the fame falls, she will know how to cry.”
These words naturally drew the angry stares of Zheng Xiao, Qiao Jinniang, and Old Madam Qiao..
Zheng Xiao held Qiao Jinniang’s hand and said, “I know that you and ruoyi are very close. You should also persuade her. There are not many young talents in Chang ‘an city.
If she wants to observe her aunt’s filial piety, it’s fine if she wants to get married in a few years, but it has to be settled...”
Qiao Jinniang said to Zheng Xiao, “Mother, pay attention first. I’ll persuade her the next time I see her.”
