Chapter 2010: Chapter 2010: Loyal Dog Bodyguard (18)
The Shuixin Pavilion has been quite joyful recently; everyone serving has received rewards, and everyone is dedicated to serving Miss Rou as well.Zhen Rou’s fetus is not too stable, and needs careful nurturing, many things must be avoided, and she should spend more time in the sun.
Today the sun is shining brightly, and the maids are crowding around Zhen Rou as she basked in the sun in the courtyard.
Zhen Rou caressed her belly, which had not yet protruded, and with a light smile, she showed a trace of maternal glow.
However, the calculation in her eyes was too much, quickly overshadowing that maternal glow.
"Miss Rou, His Highness is quite worried about you, you know, sending people to check your pulse daily and bringing you so many good things, showing how much he cares for you."
The maid was flattering Zhen Rou.
Zhen Rou smiled a little, "Oh, you sweet talker. Go and pick out a piece of jewelry you like later, as my reward to you."
The maid was delighted, "Thank you, Miss Rou."
The title "Miss Rou" made Zhen Rou feel slightly uncomfortable, her gaze darkening by two shades.
"Let’s take a walk outside."
The maids promptly supported Zhen Rou as she walked outside.
Just as they walked out of the courtyard gate, they saw several servants carrying things towards them.
Because the boxes they were carrying appeared rather valuable, Zhen Rou couldn’t help but notice.
Usually, those coming this way are delivering things to the Shuixin Pavilion...
So Zhen Rou naturally stood still and waited for them.
"Greetings, Miss Rou."
The servants carrying things all stopped and saluted.
Zhen Rou nodded slightly, "What are you carrying?"
"Replying to Miss Rou, it’s ginseng, bird’s nest, deer antler..." The servant recited a list of items, all being fine goods.
"Miss Rou, it must be His Highness sending them to you," the maid immediately supported, "His Highness really treasures Miss Rou."
Changsun Hang indeed sent many good things, Zhen Rou didn’t think much and went along with the maid’s words.
"Thanks for His Highness’s concern, you may carry the items inside. Give them some silver as a reward."
The last sentence was directed to the maid.
However, the servants looked at each other, even a little frightened.
But they had to respond under pressure, "Miss Rou... this... wasn’t sent by His Highness."
"Not sent by His Highness?" Zhen Rou was puzzled, "Then who sent it?"
"..." The servants hesitated, "It was... the Prince’s Consort, who asked us to deliver them to the kitchen."
Zhen Rou’s facial expression almost slipped, it was as if she’d been slapped twice, the heat was scorching.
