Chapter 66 Lessons from the past
Although Ms. Cao is not smart, her motherly love is really touching. However, just a little girl who can't eat can actually make her so anxious.
If the two of them have a child, I'm afraid she will be very nice to that child, right?
It's a pity that they...
Chang Maoming strode to the limp Yingying.
In fact, except for the symptom of not being hungry, Cao Yingying was doing well, she was energetic and looked good.
Chang Maoming checked her pulse and quickly withdrew his hand, "It's okay, everything is normal."
People are naturally normal.
Cao Yingying's body was just fine from a young age, so she could eat and drink.
The reason why she couldn't eat was because Cao Yingying drank that cup of soup in the afternoon.
Chang Maoming asked Zhang Ma to make the soup, and it contained herbs that suppress appetite.
Cao Yingying eats too much now. If she wants to lose weight again, in addition to exercising, she must also eat less.
Otherwise, being so chubby will not only make you look bad, it will also affect your lifespan.
"Uncle, am I really okay?"
"It's okay, go and rest. If you are hungry at night, you can ask the maid to leave a plate of snacks for you."
"Yeah, aunt and uncle, Yingying went to rest." Cao Yingying ran away impatiently.
She had been sleepy for a long time. She had played for so long today. For Yingying, this was a month's worth of exercise.
Moreover, she was really not hungry. She was just worried because she was afraid that her uncle would come back and say that she was sick and give her some medicine.
It's okay now, he disappeared in a flash.
"Look, what can happen if you are so alive and kicking?" Chang Maoming said looking at Cao's worried eyes.
"It's okay, but she has to eat two chicken legs and four eggs every meal. Let alone the chicken legs tonight, she can't even eat one egg. I feel..."
"Yingying eats too much on weekdays. This is not good." Chang Maoming said, "Do you still remember King Guangmao in the court?"
"King Guangmao?" Cao naturally remembered that he was an uncle of the current emperor. Because he was a branch of the branch, he had long been away from the court.
However, his parents supported the late emperor at the beginning, so they gave him the title of county king.
This King Guangmao doesn't like the court, he only likes to eat. It is quite comfortable to be away from the court for the rest of my life. It was just because he loved to eat so much that he ate five meals a day, and he died in his forties.
There have always been rumors in Beijing that King Guangmao is fat because he weighs three or four adults. The doors in his home are wider than those in other homes because they are too narrow to get out.
King Guangmao also likes to eat chicken legs, not only chicken legs, but also elbows and various kinds of meat.
Other families worked hard to benefit their children and grandchildren, but King Guangmao ate up all the family wealth his father gave him.
It is said that during the funeral, because the coffin was too wide, all the doors of the palace were dismantled before leaving.
As soon as she heard the words "King Guangmao", Mrs. Cao's face turned pale, and then she said unnaturally, "Are you talking about the prince who ate him to death?"
"Ah."
"Husband, you are joking. Yingying only ate two chicken drumsticks. How did she get to that point?"
"When King Guangmao was a child, he was not as fat as Yingying." Chang Maoming smiled half-heartedly, "Besides, Yingying is almost eight years old now, and will start discussing marriage in a few years. When she grows up, will Do you blame your aunt?"
Cao's face changed again.
Although she felt that Yingying might not eat to death like King Guangmao, she was just a little fatter. But if Yingying blamed her, she really couldn't bear it.
"Husband, what should we do?" Cao asked anxiously.
"The soup Yingying drank today, let her drink a bowl every day."
"Huh? Soup?" Ms. Cao was stunned, "What about soup?"
"That's what I specially prescribed to nurse Yingying after taking her pulse a few days ago." Chang Maoming told the truth, "I asked Long Baoer to coax her to exercise, and with this soup, she can heal her body in a month." Give Yingying a new look.”
"Husband..."
"At such a young age, Yingying is out of breath even after running a few steps. This is not a good thing." Chang Maoming held Cao's chin, "Yingying looks like you, and she should be a very beautiful child."
Mrs. Cao trembled all over, and after a while she raised her head from Chang Maoming's arms. She could vaguely see wetness in her eyes, "...Husband, am I too wrong?"
"There's still time. Yingying is still young and can be upright."
"Ah."
Early the next morning, although Ms. Cao felt sorry for Yingying, she thought about her husband's words and asked her maid to call Yingying up.
Yingying has never been able to eat the Chang family's breakfast, and has to sleep until three o'clock in the morning before getting up.
Furthermore, Yingying will eat chicken legs and eggs in the morning. Last time, it was because the egg prepared for her in the small kitchen was missing one, so she beat and scolded the little maid and rolled on the floor, which made the old lady who came over so angry that she fell down.
From then on, the big kitchen stopped waiting for Cao Yingying and ate as soon as he got up. He didn't even take a bite of the porridge and cakes left when he couldn't get up.
So from that time on, Cao Yingying always ate several meals a day in the small kitchen. The Cao family was originally from a low family and did not have much dowry. She couldn't take care of Chang Maoming's property well, so Chang Maoming took care of it himself.
So she spent a lot of money in the past few years, and her dowry shrank a lot.
Today, I told the small kitchen not to prepare meals for Cao Yingying alone, but to just stew the soup Chang Maoming ordered.
Ms. Cao was inexplicably relieved at the thought of not having to pay such a large monthly expense.
Someone was sent here to tell Cao Yingying to get up. A maid came in at the door and said, "Second Madam, Miss Long Baoer is here."
"Long Bao'er?" Ms. Cao was stunned. She really couldn't figure out what Long Bao'er meant by coming over.
But the little girl had already followed the maid in, and called out abruptly, "Second aunt."
Although Mrs. Cao didn't like Long Bao'er, Long Bao'er was higher in the hearts of the Chang family than she, the second wife. In just ten days, Long Bao'er became the treasure of the Xue family and the Chang family. little girl.
Mrs. Cao could only respond with a dull face, "Is something wrong?"
"I'm looking for my cousin to have breakfast." Long Baoer said.
"Yingying, she hasn't..."
Mrs. Cao was about to say that Yingying hadn't gotten up yet, but Cao Yingying had already entered the house very confidently.
Mrs. Cao whispered softly, wanting to give Yingying a few words, "Yingying, today..."
"Aunt. Hey, Long Bao'er? Why are you here?" When Yingying saw Long Bao'er, her eyes widened suddenly and she shouted in disbelief.
"I'm waiting for my cousin to go to dinner together." Long Baoer said innocently, "After dinner, we have to play with sandbags together. My cousin doesn't dare to play anymore, right?"
"How could I not dare! Just go!"
Cao Yingying and Long Baoer ran away one after another.
Ms. Cao was stunned on the spot, her outstretched hand still not taken back.
What was she trying to say just now?
