Chapter 976: Chapter 976: Your Daughter Has Quite an Appetite

Zhao Junyao frowned again.

”Nonsense!”

”How old is she? Can she eat that much?”

Xia Ruqing pouted.

”Exactly, Emperor, you have no idea. Not only does she eat a lot, but she also craves strong flavors!”

”She simply can’t do without spicy food!”

”I even got a stomachache, you know. Emperor, you’re biased. You only care about our daughter, not me. You don’t love me anymore!”

After speaking, she pouted and acted coy, unhappy.

Zhao Junyao’s face was full of dark lines.

What a situation this is.

Originally, he wanted to tease her, but ended up being utterly defeated by this girl.

In the end, helplessly, he could only lie on the bed, hug her, and gently coax her.

”Alright, alright, I didn’t say anything about you, did I?”

Xia Ruqing was still displeased.

”You’re just upset that I’m too thin and can’t properly nurture your daughter!”

She said, wearing a sorrowful expression.

”Sigh! They all say a daughter is her father’s lover from a past life!”

”Look, your little lover is still inside me, and you’re already playing favorites!”

After speaking, those almond eyes of hers were moist, indeed looking as if they were filled with tears at a glance!

Seeing this, Zhao Junyao felt a wave of heartache and quickly comforted her.

”Alright, alright, I won’t mention it anymore, okay?”

”I won’t mention it anymore!”

Essentially implying, ”Whether you want to be thin or plump, as long as you’re happy!” Only then was Xia Ruqing satisfied.

”Hmm, that’s more like it!”

Zhao Junyao ruffled her hair, looking helplessly at the canopy.

He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly: Pregnant women are indeed hard to deal with!

Xia Ruqing nestled contentedly in his arms.

Smelling the familiar ambergris, she secretly felt delighted.

Hehe, being sweetly pampered feels really nice!

Thinking about this, she somehow drowsily fell asleep.

Zhao Junyao stayed in this position, not daring to move.

By the time she woke up again, it was already dark.

After glancing at the time and looking at the man above her, Xia Ruqing finally realized she had returned.

”Emperor?!”

Zhao Junyao, called by her, opened his eyes slightly.

”What? Hungry? Want to eat something?”

Xia Ruqing reached out to pinch his super handsome face and smiled in satisfaction.

”Emperor, you’re so nice!”

Zhao Junyao, slightly exasperated.

”Now you realize I’m nice. Who was it complaining I don’t love her just now?”

Xia Ruqing blinked her eyes, thick-skinned, and asked.

”Who? I don’t know anything about that!”

Looking around, she widened her almond eyes, speaking in a dominant tone.

”Who dares to compete with me for the Emperor in my Duanning Palace?”

Zhao Junyao could only shake his head, helpless.

This woman has far too much nerve!

But... he likes it!

That night, Xia Ruqing really didn’t want to eat anything spicy.

She ordered Chef Su to make some sweet desserts, instructing that not too much sugar be added, just a faint taste.

Chef Su was skilled in making desserts.

A bowl of milk and bird’s nest was cooked until it was soft and tender.

Xia Ruqing ate with great relish.

After finishing the dessert,

She felt warm and comfortable all over, and holding her belly, she crawled into the warm bed and went to sleep.

Even Zhao Junyao didn’t expect her to sleep so early.

Indeed, pregnant women are sleepy.

When Chenchen came over to visit at night, he didn’t even get to see her.

Chenchen, just a five- or six-year-old child, didn’t quite understand.

Father said mother was asleep.

So he just headed back, deciding to visit again tomorrow.

Henger and Yeye were also exhausted.

When getting off the carriage, they were carried down by the Wetnurse Nanny.

They slept all the way to Zhaochen Palace without waking up.

They woke up once during the You Hour, had some snacks, then went back to sleep.

That night,

In Duanning Palace, the gates were shut and lights turned off early, wrapping the place in night.

The next day.

It wasn’t until late morning when Zhao Junyao returned from court.

Only then did Xia Ruqing slowly wake up.

Zhao Junyao was sitting by her bedside, watching her sleepy-eyed look.

Xia Ruqing rubbed her eyes.

”Emperor?”

Zhao Junyao smirked.

”What? Are you about to marvel again that you’re already back at the palace?”

When she woke up before dinner last night,

She took quite a while to realize it.

Would she be the same today?

Xia Ruqing quickly shook her head.

”Emperor, you underestimate me!”

Actually, she was stunned for a moment when she first woke up.

But since Zhao Junyao said so, she naturally couldn’t admit it!

Zhao Junyao chuckled softly.

It didn’t matter if she didn’t admit it, he could tell anyway.

Looking at the sky outside, Zhao Junyao asked.

”Get up quickly, I’ll accompany you for a meal!”

Xia Ruqing, hugging her quilt, lay in bed for a while, acting spoiled.

”I want to eat beef noodles!”

”Soft thin noodles, thick beef broth, filled with beef!”

”When serving, add some greens, drizzle with vinegar and sesame oil, then add two spoonfuls of crispy fried peanuts, wow...”

”Oh, and definitely a spoonful of chili oil!”

Just the idea of it made Xia Ruqing almost drool.

Zhao Junyao, half-crying, half-laughing.

”As I suspected, you’re only focused on eating!”

Xia Ruqing mischievously blinked her eyes.

”Doesn’t the Emperor want to eat too? How about... I eat it for you to watch?”

Zhao Junyao remained silent.

He coughed lightly and said seriously.

”Nonsense, eating alone is dull; I ended court early just to dine with you!”

Xia Ruqing smiled naughtily.

”See, that’s it!”

”If I don’t think about eating, how will I nourish our daughter?”

”Besides, this constant craving for chili oil and peppers, I wasn’t like this before. Isn’t it because your daughter loves it?”

”When she’s born, she’ll surely be a little pepper!”

”Emperor, you should be careful!”

Zhao Junyao was very much looking forward to it.

”A little pepper would be wonderful!”

”An Imperial Family Princess should naturally have the grace of an Imperial Family!”

”With me and her three brothers around, who would dare bully her?”

Isn’t that right?

Her father is the Emperor.

And she has three elder brothers.

Her mother is a favored consort of the emperor.

This little princess, tsk tsk, is born as the pride of the heavens, destined to be pampered by everyone!

Xia Ruqing thought the same, caressing her belly and smiling contentedly.

But then she felt a bit uneasy again.

”Emperor, do you think she’ll be our little cotton-padded jacket? What if she isn’t?”

After all, she had already borne three little boys, she was genuinely a bit afraid!

Zhao Junyao was indifferent.

”If she isn’t, we’ll just keep trying. Do you think I can’t afford it?”

”Uh...”

Keep trying?

Xia Ruqing really didn’t have this in mind.

If it’s another boy this time, she’d give up and seal her belly, never having any more.

If it’s a girl, with no regrets, she’d also stop, sealing her belly.

Anyway, she wouldn’t have more.

This life with four kids is enough!

”Alright, if you don’t get up soon, you might as well have lunch and breakfast together!”

Xia Ruqing buried her face in the quilt.

”Having them together sounds great!”

”Eat and then go back to sleep!”

”Besides, the beef still needs some time to cook, I’m free right now, I might as well lie here and rest!”

Having gone over five months pregnant, she truly felt exhausted.

Zhao Junyao, seeing her say this, didn’t want to make things difficult, responding helplessly, ”Whatever you want!”

He then turned around, sat on the heated brick bed, and started reading a book.
