Chapter 767 - 368: Unorthodox Methods_3
Pan Yue said coldly, "The Crown Princess Consort did the right thing by not letting them in. Those Taoist Ladies only do harm, yet some women still believe in them, thinking they have the ability to ensure the birth of baby boys. Whether it’s a boy or a girl is decreed by Heaven; they don’t have such power."
As she was speaking, Xin, lying on the kang bed, began to cry loudly because he wanted to play with his sister but a servant was holding him, causing him to throw a tantrum. Pan Yue quickly went over to pick him up and soothe him.
Qian Yixiu thought of a saying from her past life that eating more acidic foods could lead to the birth of a boy. Even in her previous life, this claim had not been scientifically proven. However, there was no harm in trying.
So she said to the Crown Princess Consort with a smile, "In our countryside, there’s a saying..." and then she whispered some recommendations on what to eat more of and the best times to share a bed.
The Crown Princess Consort blushed but still smiled and said, "Really? Then I must give it a try."
Qian Yixiu responded, "Whether it’s true or not, I can’t say for sure, but trying won’t hurt."

This was Qian Yixiu’s first time seeing them, and she was a bit taken aback. By now, almost everyone in the Great Qian Kingdom knew that the Emperor had said more than once that the Grand Princess was the prettiest girl, and his other two granddaughters didn’t even come close. Now that she saw them, it was clearly not the case.
Qian Yixiu chuckled to herself, thinking this must be the "beauty in the eyes of the beholder" effect of the Affectionate Grandpa.
