I was a queen in ancient times, no, a maid!

Chapter 144 News of the Marquis' Accident

Cheng Yu explained to her slowly.

"There's nothing wrong with having soup and water, but the problem is that you're carrying twins. It's dangerous enough for a woman to be pregnant with one baby, and you're carrying twins, which is doubly dangerous. If you eat too much and both babies become fat, how will you give birth? This is your first time giving birth, so it's even more dangerous."

"If you trust me, just listen to me. The things I give you are enough to replenish the nutrients your body needs."

"Don't eat too much soup or watery food, as it can easily cause pregnancy."

Fang Mingqiao didn't realize this problem at all. She always felt that the food tasted good and she didn't feel nauseous.

It is clear that the baby in her belly is being well taken care of by her.

She never thought that she might have a difficult delivery because the fetus was too big.

"Sister Yu, no one has ever mentioned this question to me."

Cheng Yu frowned, "No, where is your dowry nanny?"

Speaking of this, Fang Mingqiao's face was obviously not very good, but her relationship with Cheng Yu was quite close.

I didn't hide it either.

"I don't have any dowry nanny. The people around me are all the dowry brought by my sister when she got married. After the dowry nanny Su knew that I was pregnant, her attitude towards me was not as good as before."

"I know what she means. She thinks that now that I'm pregnant and have my own child, I won't be able to take good care of my sister's child in the future."

In fact, Fang Mingqiao took good care of the two children.

Yang Huaiyuan also loved them very much.

The eldest sister's marriage was arranged when the elder sister was still alive.

My husband’s son is the legitimate son of Mr. Pei, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He is three years older than my eldest sister and is just twelve years old this year.

After a few years, Fang Mingqiao will definitely arrange her niece's wedding personally. She has never forgotten her sister's last words.

But Nanny Su didn't believe her.

As for her, he didn't care, even if Fang Mingqiao was deliberately bullied by Qin Yurou.

When Nanny Su saw this, she didn't say anything, but just advised Fang Mingqiao to bear with it.

Nanny Su didn't care about any symptoms she showed after she became pregnant.

Cheng Yu looked at Fang Mingqiao and felt that she was indeed pitiful.

Did she want to marry Yang Huaiyuan? No, she was forced into the Yang family by family interests.

Now that I'm pregnant, my husband doesn't care about me, and there's no one I can trust on my side of the family.

No wonder the Fang family quickly forgot about her after her death.

Even Zhenyuan Hou Yang Huaiyuan only felt sorry that the two children she carried did not survive, and he did not feel sad for her for long.

Cheng Yu looked at Fang Mingqiao and felt distressed.

Maybe this is the love between girls.

She told Fang Mingqiao many things to pay attention to.

Afterwards, she also specially sent a book of precautions during pregnancy, asking Fang Mingqiao to study it carefully and make sure to take good care of herself.

Later, Fang Mingqiao could no longer learn to be smart.

She did not refuse the things Qin Yurou gave her, but let the maids drink them, and the cats and dogs in the Qiaoyuan drink them.

As a result, the cats and dogs in Fang Mingqiao's yard became fat as balls, and she was in very good health.

***

On New Year's Day, there was a heavy snowfall throughout Kyoto.

But she received a special letter.

It was written by her brother.

Zhao Shiyan was shot in the abdomen by the enemy during a battle on the border, and his whereabouts were unknown as he was carried away by his horse.

After receiving the letter, Cheng Yu immediately went to find Zhao Rulan.

After Zhao Rulan's marriage was finalized at Prince Jing's Mansion, she originally thought that Meng Yan from Jiangbei City would come to her, and she could then negotiate terms with him.

Unexpectedly, Meng Yan didn't come.

But then Cheng Yu arrived with bad news.

"Yu'er, is this true or false?"

"I don't know. I only know that this letter was written by my brother. He just learned to write, so his handwriting is not good, but I recognize it."

"Miss, do you have any way to find out about the prince?"

As the eldest daughter of Prince Jing's Mansion, Zhao Rulan could not go out at will during the New Year. She could only tell Cheng Yu to go to Jiangbei City to find Meng Yan.

"I'll go to Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion to look for Yang Huaiyuan, and you go to Jiangbei City to look for Meng Yan. Just tell him that it was me, Zhao Rulan, who asked him to help find my brother."

Meng Yan is a big businessman who has traveled all over the country. He has extensive connections and is well-informed. He will definitely be able to find some useful clues.

Cheng Yu nodded.

"Miss, please don't tell the prince or anyone in the palace about this. I'm afraid someone will take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble..."

Zhao Rulan said, "You and I are thinking the same thing. You and I know this. I won't even tell Dingxiang, to prevent her from worrying about your brother and talking nonsense again."

Cheng Yu nodded, "Well, then I'll go to Jiangbei City."

“When are you going?”

"Today."

Driving to Jiangbei City is not slow.

Cheng Yu went there without telling his grandmother. He definitely couldn't tell his grandmother about this because she was old and he was afraid she would worry.

Zhao Rulan privately asked two servants who knew some martial arts to drive Cheng Yu to Jiangbei City.

After arriving in Jiangbei City, he went straight to find Meng Yan.

Meng Yan seemed to have expected that someone would come to see him in Kyoto, but he didn't expect that it would be Cheng Yu instead of Zhao Rulan.

"Are you disappointed, sir? The eldest lady is the eldest daughter of Prince Jing's mansion. How can she come out to meet a man outside her family casually?"

Meng Yan's thoughts were too obvious.

Cheng Yu could see it.

The reason why Zhao Rulan, who is so smart, couldn't see it was because she was deeply involved in it. Naturally, she couldn't see it as clearly as Cheng Yu, an outsider.

Meng Yan looked at Cheng Yu, a little girl who was young but very courageous.

Since the first time he met Cheng Yu, he was surprised that she was a little maid of ordinary status, who was just a little outstanding in appearance, how could she have such courage?

"You're right. I really want her to come to me."

"However, your words also reminded me. Since you like her, why not pursue her boldly?"

Cheng Yu said softly, "Master, don't you know that the eldest girl said that she would marry you, Master?"

"know."

Otherwise he wouldn't be able to sit still so calmly.

"I just haven't figured out how to tell her..."

The key point is that Zhao Rulan didn't believe what he said at all.

"Miss Yu, there are clues about the prince. Someone in my caravan knows the general direction of the battle, but I don't know where the prince is exactly. Of course, I can let my caravan take you to find her, or I can look for her on your behalf."

"You can tell her that I will definitely do whatever she asks for."

Meng Yan naturally knew about the prince's engagement.

The person he was thinking of was in Prince Jing's Mansion, and he knew more or less about what was going on inside the Mansion.

Meng Yanren has business in Kyoto and has his people there.

It is easy to know what is happening in Prince Jing's Mansion.

When Cheng Yu heard Meng Yan say this, he felt a little relieved.

"Mr. Meng, thank you for your help."

"I'm not doing this for you." Meng Yan said with a chuckle.

Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "I know, but I still want to thank you."

"I intend to go with your caravan to find him."

She doesn't have any special skills, but the things in this system store can be used as supplies. If Zhao Shiyan needs them, she can just take them out and help him.
