Chapter 93: In order to support you, this prince is almost becoming a nanny
The pain in her lower abdomen was gone, and Qin Xiaoning immediately regained her spirits. She came out of Lu Ji's arms and lay on the pillow, still saying, "It may not be the effect of the medicine. I told you, I know my body best. It will only hurt for a while, and I'll be fine after I endure it." As she spoke, she glared at the man with a mixture of anger and resentment, "You insisted on forcing me to drink this bitter medicine."

Seeing that the person was in the mood to argue with him again, Lu Ji knew that she was completely fine, so he stood up to leave, but was stopped by the little woman: "Where are you going now?"

She looked at him eagerly and said coquettishly, "You've been out all day, and you're not done yet?"

The man stood on the ground, glancing at the sleeve of her clothes that she was holding tightly: "You want me to accompany you?"

The little woman nodded and started to act coquettishly again: "My stomach still hurts, it's not completely healed yet."

Lu Ji sighed slightly, then climbed back into bed, half leaning against the headboard. The little guy immediately leaned on him and said obediently, "I haven't seen you all day, and I missed you."

Lu Ji was happy, and stroked her back with his big hands, and replied: "I have to be busy with work these days. When you are well, I will have someone accompany you to go out for a walk. Although Pucheng is not as prosperous as the capital, there are many interesting places."

"Okay." She said, leaning on his lap.

"Does your stomach still hurt?" He was still worried that she was in pain.

The little woman turned her head and rested her head on his legs. She looked at him with eyes as clear as autumn water and said with a smile, "Do you remember my first menstrual period?"

At that time, she was only eleven years old and had her first period. Her mother passed away early, and no one had ever told her that this could happen to girls.

She looked at the blood dripping from her body and started crying in fear. She ran to find Lu Ji and said that she had a strange disease and was going to die.

Lu Ji was just a young boy at that time, how could he know this? When he heard her stammering as she talked about the symptoms, he was frightened and left the house overnight to find an old doctor from the Imperial Hospital to help her.

Qin Xiaoning will always remember the look on her face when the old doctor was invited to Qingsong Garden by Lu Ji overnight and asked her about her symptoms in detail, and he laughed so hard that his white beard trembled.

Qin Xiaoning and Lu Ji only then found out what had happened.

The little girl was so embarrassed that she hid in her room for several days and refused to come out. Finally, Lu Ji endured the embarrassment and stood outside her door, blushing and comforting her: "A Ning, come out, the imperial physician said that all women have their periods."

Thinking of their past embarrassment, Lu Ji couldn't help but laugh as well, pinching her cheeks with his big hands: "I am the prince of a noble family, and I am almost becoming a nanny in order to support you."

In the kitchen, Amber was directing several cooks to work.

Qin Xiaoning's letter every month always contains a fixed set of medicinal food. This house has not been inhabited for a long time, so naturally there are no precious things.

Amber had no choice but to settle for the second best. She picked up the only large red dates, wolfberry sprouts, longans, brown sugar and other ingredients and asked the cook to carefully cook some sweet porridge for Qin Xiaoning first, and then she went back without stopping to find her husband Desheng.

Amber handed the written list of medicinal foods to the man and said, "Go buy them now. They must be of the best quality. Nothing should be missing."

Desheng knew that Amber had made the prince unhappy today, so he comforted her: "The water is not cold. Every woman has her period. I see that you are always regular. Why is she so squeamish?" As he said that, he unfolded the shopping list and took a breath of cold air: "Oh my God, you have to buy so much?" He smiled bitterly: "Is this to take care of the confinement period?"

Amber glared at the man and said, "Miss Qin has a delicate body, how can I compare with her." Then, she pointed to the shopping list and said, "She gets menstrual cramps when she gets a little cold. The prince specially asked the imperial physician in the palace to draw up a diet plan for her, and she eats this way every time."

As he spoke, he glanced outside and said, "It's getting dark, go buy something."

Desheng was lazy: "Let's go tomorrow." "How can that be possible? We need it tomorrow morning." Amber said, raising her foot to kick the man: "Go quickly."

Desheng stood up reluctantly, saying, "Why not let the servant go? I've been out all day."

"No, I'm afraid they won't be careful and buy it right." As he said that, he frowned and poked the man's head with his hand: "Are you not thinking straight? The prince brought me out here just to take good care of Miss Qin. I was not steady today and I have already made him unhappy. If there is another mistake, I will not be able to continue to be the head of the family."

Desheng put the shopping list in his arms and retorted, "If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. I'm still looking forward to you staying at home and giving birth to more children for me."

Amber squinted at the man and said, "I eat plain rice at home. Can you treat me like the prince treats Miss Qin?"

"Why not?" The man stiffened his neck.

"Stop talking nonsense here." Amber pushed him out the door: "Go quickly."

When she saw the man take a step forward, she couldn't help but nag, "You must choose carefully, don't be careless."

Qin Xiaoning was fed a bowl of medicine by Lu Ji, and her abdominal pain disappeared. She drank a bowl of hot brown sugar and jujube porridge and slept soundly until dawn.

Amber got up early and instructed the cook to prepare the medicinal porridge. When she heard Songzhi say that Miss Qin had woken up, Amber personally brought the porridge to Qin Xiaoning's room.

"Is your stomach still hurting?" Amber put down her breakfast and asked warmly.

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Qin Xiaoning had just finished washing up and was sitting in front of the dining table. She glanced at the familiar medicinal food that she had to eat every month and asked in surprise, "Did you bring these things from the mansion?"

This medicinal meal is made with more than ten kinds of food ingredients and herbs, which are not easy to get together when you are away from home.

Amber said ashamedly, "I was negligent. I forgot to bring it when I came out. I bought it yesterday. Fortunately, Pucheng is also prosperous, so it can be bought here."

As he said this, he pushed the bowl of porridge towards Qin Xiaoning and said, "Miss Qin, please try it. Does it taste the same as the one in the mansion?"

Qin Xiaoning picked up the white glaze spoon, scooped a mouthful and tasted it, then nodded and said, "It's not much different." She thanked Amber again, "Thank you, sister."

Although it is a medicinal porridge, because Qin Xiaoning does not like bitter taste and is picky about food, the combination of medicinal ingredients is very exquisite. It is not only nourishing but also tastes good.

Qin Xiaoning had a small appetite, so she only had a small bowl of porridge for breakfast. After she was full, she took the fragrant tea handed to her by Songzhi, rinsed her mouth, and asked Hubo: "Where is the prince? Did he go out again?"

"Not yet. I am discussing something with a few lieutenants in the study. I see the horses are ready outside. I guess they will go out soon."

Qin Xiaoning sighed, "He's always busy." Then, she told Amber, "I plan to go out for a walk today. I'd like to trouble you to tell the housekeeper to prepare a car."

Yesterday, because she didn't take good care of Qin Xiaoning, Amber had already angered the prince. Now she was working very hard. When she heard what Qin Xiaoning said, she immediately frowned and said, "How can this be? Miss is having her period now. The prince will definitely not allow you to go out. If you get tired, I can't bear it."
