Li Hongyuan took back the hand he had used to wipe her tears, stood up, and said, “Don’t be so stubborn anymore. Be good and drink your medicine. I will have someone bring the children over.”
He turned and left.
Soon after, the wet nurse arrived, holding the boy and girl twins.
The delicate little ones, wrapped in swaddling clothes, slept sweetly.
Jiang Ning was so fond of them, playing with the two treasures.
Just as she was enjoying herself, Li Hongyuan came back.
Jiang Ning was annoyed with him, “What are you doing here again?”
“These are the names Emperor Father gave to the children. Take a look and choose two.” He handed her a piece of paper.
Although Jiang Ning did not want to deal with him, she looked at it since it concerned the children’s names, “Wenzan, Lingzi, these two are not bad.”
“Good, the elder brother is named Wenzan, the younger sister is called Lingzi.”
“Can you name them like this in the royal family?”
“It is rare, but since they are boy and girl twins, they symbolize good fortune and prosperity. Emperor Father specially allowed it, so you can pick the ones you like.”
Jiang Ning nodded and did not say anything more.
Seeing her playing with the children, smiling, Li Hongyuan felt relieved and left.
Taking the medicine on time every day and having a good mood from watching the children, Jiang Ning quickly recovered, her spirits being restored day by day.
On the twelfth day after the birth, the Jiang family sent gifts.
It was Jiang Yi who came.
These were traditional gifts for a newborn, naturally all had to be given. For the Jiang family, the main concern was still Jiang Ning and the two children.
Jiang Yi first looked at the two little nephews and was very fond of them.
Then he looked at Jiang Ning, frowning, “How did you lose so much weight? Did the Prince of Yu’s residence not feed you properly? Before I came, father and mother repeatedly told me that you must take good care of yourself, not to damage yourself and leave any hidden illness for the future.”
“I know, I just don’t have much appetite.”
Jiang Ning laughed.
She didn’t need to breastfeed or eat extravagantly anyway, she only consumed the extra fat she gained during pregnancy.
Jiang Yi brought a lot of precious medicinal ingredients and supplements, telling her to eat them on time.
He also said that everyone in the family would come back for the full moon banquet.
When there was no one else in the room, Jiang Ning told him her plan of going back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion with Lingzi after the full moon, and severing ties with the Prince of Yu’s residence.
Jiang Yi said, “If you want to come back, just come back. Our parents could not bear to part from you in the first place. However, would the Prince of Yu agree?”
“He will. I will leave the first child with him and take the second child with me.”
“Really? That’s quite rare for the Prince of Yu.” Jiang Yi said sincerely.
Even if it were anyone else, even himself, it would be unlikely to allow a woman to take away the child.
After all, the child bears Li’s last name.
That the Prince of Yu could agree showed that Jiang Yi’s view of him had changed a lot.
Jiang Ning laughed, “He too was pestered by me to the point that he could not stand it anymore. The entire Prince of Yu’s residence couldn’t wait for me to leave immediately. As for the others… after all, he only cares about the first child. It doesn’t matter whether I and the second child stay or not.”
“They may not value you, but our Jiang family does! Come back then, and I will take care of you and your little niece.” Jiang Yi laughed.
Jiang Ning was moved.
Her family was truly indulgent and affectionate towards her.
Because she was in a good mood, her confinement went by quickly.
When it was time for the one-month celebration, Jiang Ning asked Huang Ying and the others to pack up their things early.
For her, leaving the Prince of Yu’s residence was something to be happy about,
But when she looked at her first child, her heart was filled with reluctance.
Li Hongyuan stood outside the door, watching her holding the first child, tears falling down..
