Chapter 343 Sour Plum
Chapter 343 Sour Plum
Shen Tang said, "I'll come and see my sister-in-law. Maybe she won't vomit like me."
This is probably much less likely than Shen Tang and Princess Roujia vomiting.
Shen Tang was not afraid and was willing to come to see Princess Roujia. Princess Ning was very happy. Shen Tang sat with the princess for a while and then went to see Princess Roujia.
Princess Ning said that Princess Roujia had lost a lot of weight. Shen Tang was mentally prepared, but he was still shocked when he saw it in person. She had only been vomiting for a few days, and she had become so thin and haggard.
If my eldest brother saw this, he would be heartbroken.
In her previous life, Shen Tang also vomited a lot, but it was not as severe as Princess Roujia. The imperial physician at the time said that morning sickness would not last for an exact length of time. Some people would recover in a few days, while others might vomit from pregnancy to birth. However, most people would stop vomiting after three months.
When Shen Tang entered the room, Princess Roujia was still feeling nauseous. She raised her hand to stop Shen Tang and said, "You, don't come over..."
Shen Tang said, "Morning sickness is not a disease and is not contagious."
Princess Roujia also knew this, and this was just worrying. Even if it wasn't contagious, seeing her vomiting would make her feel nauseous.
But she couldn't vomit anything now, she didn't eat anything at all.
The maid quickly brought over the sour plums, and Princess Roujia used them to suppress her nausea.
She now almost lives on sour plums.
She knew that pregnancy was hard, but she didn't know it would be so hard. Fortunately, Shen Xing came back. It would have been so painful to give birth to one child. She didn't want to have another one even if she was beaten to death.
Seeing how thin Princess Roujia looked, the princess felt very distressed. She had a good relationship with Princess Duan and had watched Princess Roujia grow up. She treated her like her own daughter, but no one could help with morning sickness and she could only endure it.
Knowing that Shen Tang and Princess Roujia had something private to talk about, the princess only stayed for a while before going to accompany Princess Ning. Princess Roujia felt distressed and worried when she saw this, not to mention Princess Ning.
If she continues to vomit like this and doesn’t eat, and her condition doesn’t improve, it might get so serious that she might not even be able to keep the baby in her belly.
After the princess left, Princess Roujia started retching again and vomited the sour plums she had just eaten.
Shen Tang asked, "How could it be so serious?"
Princess Roujia said, "It tastes very bland."
Shen Tang asked, "Is the plum not sour enough?"
In her previous life, when she was vomiting the most severely, she relied on sour plums to suppress the vomiting.
She picked up a sour plum, which was already quite sour, but not the sourest.
Shen Tang instructed Ginkgo, "There's a shop in the north of the city that sells sour plums. Go ask around and buy the sourest ones."
Ginkgo hurried to do it.
Shen Tang accompanied Princess Roujia. Princess Roujia was suffering from severe morning sickness. She vomited yellow water and had a bitter taste in her mouth after speaking a few words.
Seeing that Shen Tang didn't vomit, Princess Roujia stopped urging Shen Tang to leave. She hadn't left the house since she had morning sickness, and she also wanted someone to talk to her.
In the past two days, Princess Duan and the Fourth Madam have both come to see Princess Roujia, but after all, Princess Roujia is a married woman, and Xiao Huan has already married into her family, so it is not convenient for them to come often. Princess Roujia is afraid that they will worry too much, so she does not let them know about her severe morning sickness.
So sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
Princess Roujia said, "Fortunately, my husband went to Qianzhou..."
Shen Tang said, "I was saying that when you needed Big Brother the most, he was not in Kyoto. When he comes back, I will definitely scold him."
Princess Roujia shook her head and was about to speak when she felt nauseous again.
I was vomiting and tears were streaming down my face.
I vomited blood in my throat, my vision went black, and I almost fainted.
Although I didn’t feel dizzy, I can’t eat like this. I will feel dizzy sooner or later.
Shen Tang didn't know how to help Princess Roujia, so Ginkgo went to the north of the city as quickly as possible. After asking around, she found a shop selling sour plums. She asked for a plum and tasted it. After just one bite, she almost felt her soul peel off due to the sourness.
Can I eat such sour plums?
Ginkgo bought several things and then hurried back in a carriage.
"Princess, I've bought the sour plums."
Shen Tang held out his hand, and Yin Xing quickly handed over the sour plum, saying, "I tasted it, it's extremely, extremely, extremely sour."
Shen Tang handed it to Princess Roujia, "Try it, sister-in-law."
Princess Roujia pinched one, took a bite, and said, "It's not very sour."
...Isn't this sour?
Ginkgo never wastes food. No matter how unpalatable the food is, she will grit her teeth and eat it. But she really didn't eat that sour plum and threw it away.
Princess Roujia ate one, but still wasn't satisfied, so she took another one.
Ginkgo said, "I have bought several items. Please see if you like any of them, my lady."
Princess Roujia also tried the others, but her favorite was the sourest one.
After eating three in a row, seeing that Ginkgo also bought some dried fish, Princess Roujia said, "I'll try this one too."
This sounded very ordinary to Shen Tang and Ginkgo, but to the other maids in the room, it was unbelievable and they were almost moved to tears.
This was the first time in three days that the princess wanted to eat on her own initiative.
Shen Tang handed the dried fish to Princess Roujia. Princess Roujia took one and tasted it. "So spicy..."
Princess Roujia doesn't like spicy food and can't eat spicy food.
The maid hurried to bring her some tea to rinse her mouth, but when she turned around, Princess Roujia said, "It's so spicy."
Maid, "..."
Princess Roujia held the dried fish in her arms and ate all of them in one go, which Ginkgo had bought for her own snack.
Shen Tang was a little worried, "I have nothing in my stomach. Eating something so spicy might hurt my stomach."
Princess Roujia hadn't eaten anything for three days. As long as she could eat it without vomiting, the maid would give her dried fish or even dried chili peppers.
After finishing a bag of dried fish, Princess Roujia was still not satisfied, "No more."
Shen Tang ordered Ginkgo, "Go buy some more."
Daimao, the maidservant of Princess Roujia, said, "Let me go and tell me where the shop is."
Ginkgo said hurriedly, "I bought it from a small stall across from the sour plum shop. The stall owner is a woman about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old with a child."
Inside the house, the princess was still talking to Princess Ning. Since Shen Tang didn't go back for a long time, the princess didn't leave either.
The maid walked in quickly and said happily, "Old Princess, the maid of the Princess of Jingyang bought some sour plums and some dried fish. The princess loves them very much. She ate them all in one go and still wants more..."
Princess Ning said, "Go buy it quickly."
The maid hurriedly said, "The maid has already left."
The princess said, "As long as there is something you like to eat."
Princess Ning said, "It's a good thing Tang'er is here. She is indeed the lucky star of our Ning Palace."
Princess Roujia ate the dried fish and then ate the sour plums. The maids served her carefully. Usually, Princess Roujia would vomit before finishing her food, but today she ate for a long time without vomiting, and the maids all breathed a sigh of relief.
It is said that sour boys and spicy girls are the ideal. The princess likes sour food and spicy food. So is she pregnant with a prince or a princess?
The food in Prince Ning's Mansion is light, and Princess Roujia has never liked spicy food, so there has been no spicy food in these days. Who would have thought that her taste would change so much after she became pregnant.
