But after she bit him, she didn’t let go. To make up for it, and to show that she didn’t mean any harm, but was only playing around, she started licking and sucking that spot. By that point, Jin Wang no longer cared whether it was a real bite or a fake bite. His blood froze and all his hairs were standing up on their ends.

Ever since Yaoniang got pregnant, Jin Wang hadn’t gotten any nourishment, and could only hold her in his embrace. But that was useless, it only made him greedy for more. While he couldn’t bear to do anything, she was heartless and would fall asleep in the blink of an eye.

To be fair, it wasn’t that she didn’t care about him, but that her body simply wasn’t up for it. And as soon as she got into a comfortable position, she couldn’t stop herself from falling asleep. Once she was asleep, there was nothing Jin Wang could do but ask one of the maids to draw a bath for him. This reminded him of those harsh times before his poison was resolved.

Little Jin Wang hadn’t experienced such joy in a long time and not long after, shot its load. Knowing that Jin Wang was very easy to talk to after releasing his pent-up vigour, Yaoniang discussed with him about the use of ice.

Jin Wang wasn’t tempted by her beauty trap, and insisted on having Doctor Liu come over tomorrow to take a look before deciding.

After all her efforts, this was all she got. Yaoniang immediately turned her back on him and fell asleep.

Jin Wang was left alone. He thought to himself that she was becoming more and more daring. But then he realized that this was also a good thing. Before, he would still need to coax her, but now he didn’t even need to. In the end, no matter what, it was still him who benefited.

Despite these complicated feelings in his heart, Jin Wang also soon fell asleep.

Jin Wang was indeed a man of his words. The following day, Doctor Liu arrived.

After he arrived, he took Yaoniang’s pulse then said, “His Highness mentioned this matter to me. Ice can be used to keep yourself comfortable and free of sweat, but it must not be too much, lest you catch a cold. The exact amount to be used would be up to Your Highness Side Consort to decide. “

Yaoniang was very pleased with this result and took the opportunity to ask, “Then can it also be used during the delivery and month of confinement?”

“Yes, but don’t put it too close to you.”

Yaoniang couldn’t help giving Hong Chou a pointed look, before turning around to thank Doctor Liu and see him off.

Once Doctor Liu left, she hurriedly ordered her maids to get some ice. She could finally enjoy her lunch without sweating. She even ate an extra small bowl of rice. Recently, because of the heat, Yaoniang’s appetite had decreased.

After finishing her lunch, dressed in a silk red dress, Yaoniang laid on the Kang with her limbs stretched out comfortably, her massive belly bulging. Sitting next to her was Xiaobao, studying her belly with a focused gaze.

“Don’t move your hands around so much. Just leave them there. Otherwise, Erbao might get scared into not moving.”

This was the most recent game that the mother and son liked to amuse themselves with: searching for Erbao.

Xiaobao would always hear Yaoniang exclaim that there was movement but he couldn’t understand what she’d meant. It was only when he saw Yaoniang’s belly bulge up with his own eyes that he understood what she had meant.

It was an extraordinary sight. Was this also how his mother gave birth to him back then?

Little by little, he grew up. As he became older, he gradually learned to sit, climb, walk, talk, and have his own thoughts.

Especially after experiencing a rebirth, Xiaobao felt the growth of life was incredible. Every now and then, a whimsical idea would pop up in his mind but upon further reflection, he would often categorize them as absurd. If Xiaobao learned Taoism, it was likely he’d be able to understand why Han Chuanzi had said that he shared an affinity for Taoism, the first time he saw him.

But now he couldn’t be bothered to think about any of this. He could feel Erbao kicking him.

Yes, Erbao. Xiaobao stubbornly believes that this was Erbao in Yaoniang’s belly. He even named the child Erbao without consulting the adults.

His way of naming the baby was to point at Yaoniang’s belly and call Erbao, ignoring Jin Wang’s words telling him that inside was his younger sister.

Xiaobao’s reply to these words was that his sister is also Erbao.

Yaoniang could only resign herself to the fact that the child in her belly would be called Erbao upon birth. She even tried to discuss this with Xiaobao, “If this child is called Erbao, you would need to change your name.”

“Change my name to what?” Xiaobao, who could already speak an entire sentence, asked in his milky voice.

“Change to Dabao. If you’re called Xiaobao, that means you’re Erbao’s younger brother. Do you want to be the younger brother?”

Xiaobao was not so easily deceived. After all, he had lived for two lifetimes. He looked at Yaoniang and said in a voice that left no room for further discussion, “There won’t be any Dabao, only Xiaobao. The child in your belly will be called Erbao. In the future, it will be Sanbao then Sibao.” Now it

Crap. He just exposed himself. How could a normal one-and-a-half-year-old baby know how to count? Fortunately, Yaoniang’s attention was on all the ‘baos’ and didn’t notice her son’s peculiarity.

It was also good that Hong Chou and the others weren’t there. Xiaobao let out a sigh of relief and thought to himself that he must pay more attention to his behaviour in the future. Slipping up in front of his gullible mother wasn’t that big of a deal. However, if the same thing happened in front of his father, he wouldn’t be able to blunder his way through.

Speak of the devil and he shall appear.

Jin Wang walked in from outside. Dressed in an ornate black brocade robe, with gold embroidered designs on his sleeves, it was obvious at first glance that he had just come back from the palace. The sheen of sweat on his forehead made others feel warm from simply looking at him.

“Are you hot? Let me ask a maid to bring over a set of clothes for you to change into.” Yaoniang sat up and was about to get off the Kang when she was held down by Jin Wang.

“Sit. I’ll go take a shower first.”

Following his voice, Fucheng, Hong Chou and the others all entered. Fucheng and Jin Wang entered the inner room while Hong Chou and the others followed after them with the water. Not long after, Jin Wang came back out dressed in a much thinner robe and sat down in front of the Kang without speaking.

Seeing Jin Wang like this, he must’ve been angered by someone in the palace.

Yaoniang didn’t know how to coax him and could only ask Hong Chou to go prepare a bowl of shaved ice.

Shaved ice was the most popular snack in the capital during summer.

It was made of finely ground ice, topped with a layer of honey and chopped fruits. In the mouth, it was cool and refreshing. Eating it during the sweltering summer months made it even more delicious.

It was a pity that Yaoniang couldn’t eat a lot of it. She only dared to eat a few bites before leaving the rest for Jin Wang.

Jin Wang was never someone who enjoyed eating sweets to begin with. Seeing Yaoniang’s look of wanting to eat but not daring to eat, he took a few mouthfuls of it.

Today’s shaved ice was topped with raspberries and plums, which was Yaoniang’s favourite flavour. Another flavour that she liked was winter melon. The bright red raspberries and plums were covered in a layer of honey and underneath them was a layer of white shaved ice. On top of the ice was also a serving of candied red beans. The plums themselves had also been soaked in honey so there was a sweet and sour taste to them.

Just from thinking about it, Yaoniang’s mouth would overflow with saliva.

Xiaobao’s mouth was also flooding. Two pairs of bright eyes stared at Jin Wang.

With their gazes on him, Jin Wang felt unable to take another bite.

He pushed the glass bowl towards them. Yaoniang grinned. “Your Highness is the best person in the entire world.”

Xiaobao was unable to flatter someone to this extent. He was still incompetent at acting cute towards his father, but towards his mother, he had long mastered the art of making puppy faces.

He tugged at Yaoniang’s sleeves as she put a spoonful of the dessert into her mouth. Pointing his chubby finger at it, he said, “Xiaobao also wants to eat.” That look of his eyes could melt anyone.

Yaoniang’s mouth was trembling from the ice, as she said to her son, “Xiaobao can’t eat. Otherwise, Xiaobao will catch a cold.”

“Then Mother also can’t eat. Erbao will be cold.”

Yaoniang tried to persuade her son. “No. Mother holds the ice in her mouth and waits for it to melt before swallowing.” Otherwise, her mouth wouldn’t be shuddering from the cold.

“Xiaobao will also hold it, wait for it to melt, then swallow it.”

Xiaobao, who now knew how to speak, was getting harder and harder to coax. He even learned to talk back. Yaoniang was helpless, and tried to negotiate, “Then take a small bite?”

Vigilant, Xiaobao said, “Bite, bite, then another bite.”

That was three bites.

“No. That’s too much. Only one bite.”

“Bite then another bite.”

“Only one bite.”
