Chapter 1398: Chapter 1396: What a Bold Young Lady
Since Wufu needed to accompany Madam Zhou out, they couldnāt just leave hastily. Considering her large belly, they had to make plenty of preparations. The carriage needed to be equipped with shock absorbers, the interior had to be soft, and even the attendants needed to be adequately prepared.
Seeing this outing, with not only the usual maidservants following but also several impressive house servant guards, Madam Zhou felt somewhat uneasy.
The arrangement seemed too grand, just for a trip to go shopping. Back in Huayang, things were not this stringent, but here in Changan, itās quite a display.
"How about we just donāt go?" Madam Zhou thought of backing out and said, "Itās too troublesome, letās go after I give birth!"
"Mother, this isnāt called troublesome. Compared to other noblesā outings, ours is considered ordinary! As for going out later, as they say, live in the moment; the scenery later will have a different mood, nothing like the present." Wufu laughed and helped her onto the carriage.
Of course, what Wufu didnāt tell Madam Zhou was that this was also to avoid any mishaps for her, which is why so many people were prepared. If it were Wufu herself, she certainly would have gone with just a few people. Who has the patience for such a big display?
The two sat down, Mo Lan knocked on the carriage wall, and the carriage started to move slowly. Sitting inside, they didnāt feel any shaking, leaving Madam Zhou quite amazed.
"This carriage is really stable, like walking on flat ground."
Wufu smiled slightly, naturally, it was stable; several springs had been added. She placed her hand on Madam Zhouās belly and said, "Mother, this belly seems to have grown a bit."
Madam Zhouās face showed a gentle smile and said, "People need to eat, and he grows day by day, so naturally itās getting bigger."
"When can he come out? When little brother comes, Iāll take him horseback riding and teach him martial arts." Wufu felt the belly, the child didnāt move, so she let go.
Madam Zhou calculated with her fingers: "Itās been a full six months now. I think he will be born in December, and at the latest, around the New Year."
Wufu said, "Then the midwife and wet nurse should be prepared soon." She also told Mo Lan, "You must remember to remind me later."
Mo Lan, holding a sword, said, "Miss, Purple Jade and Nanny Cheng are already searching!"
Wufu awkwardly rubbed her nose, "Really?"
Madam Zhou smiled mockingly, "Is there any need for a wet nurse? Iāll nurse him myself." Coming from a rural family, didnāt everyone nurse their own children? Whereās the Silver Coin to hire a wet nurse?
"In any case, we need to be prepared, finding someone agreeable isnāt easy." Wufu laughed and said.
"This child should be nursed by oneself to bond with the mother. You should all remember, even if thereās a wet nurse, try to nurse your own child. Otherwise, why do they say āwhoever feeds you is your motherā!" Madam Zhou advised the girls inside the carriage.
Several unmarried girls blushed deeply, including Mo Lan.
Only Wufu laughed heartily, "If you have ten or eight children, where would all the milk come from to feed them?"
"Miss!" Everyone blushed. How can you be so bold and still be a young lady?
Wufu laughed out loud, and Madam Zhou shook her head helplessly as she looked at her. With such a personality, she really wondered how she would fare in the future when married off.
"Drive the carriage slower." Wufu said outside, lifting a side curtain, and told Madam Zhou, "Mother, take a look at the scenery outside the carriage."
Madam Zhou looked out and, seeing the people on the street, a smile appeared on her face.
