Chapter 1296: Be Careful
She lowered her head and sniffed.
The Consort of Prince Rui very much liked the fragrance of the sachet.
A subtle scent.
It smelled somewhat like orchids, also a bit like osmanthus, but it was more of a combination of the two, particularly comforting to one’s sense of smell.
The Consort handed the sachet to Lingling and instructed her to place it under her pillow as Su Yunjin had advised; coincidentally, she had been having trouble sleeping lately. Since Su Yunjin had given her this sachet, she should be able to sleep well at night. Because of this gift, she felt even closer to Su Yunjin in her heart.
She found Su Yunjin’s congratulatory gift to be very thoughtful. The Consort could hardly be bothered to look at the other precious items she had received; she accepted them and simply had Lingling lock them away in the storeroom.
Among all the guests who brought gifts to the Prince Qi Residence today, the Consort was particularly pleased with the sachet and cloth tiger Su Yunjin had presented. Su Yunjin said she could help her bear more children for Prince Rui, pulling her hand. The Consort also asked Su Yunjin to prescribe her a herbal medicine regimen for her body.
The Consort treated Su Yunjin well, even recognizing her as an adopted sister. Su Yunjin was not one to be ungrateful; appreciating the Consort’s kindness, she sincerely considered the Consort’s well-being. Regarding childbirth, Su Yunjin laid out the pros and cons for the Consort, suggesting it would be best to wait another year before trying to conceive again.
Actually, the Consort had also planned to wait a year before having another child. Having just given birth to one, she would have no time to care for a second right away. Waiting another year would be just right. Thus, she readily accepted Su Yunjin’s advice.
