Chapter 121 Momo helps Madam Hou cure her infertility

Jingming Hou looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Hen'er, Miss Momo, I heard from the servants that you were chatting in the garden, so I asked the servants to bring lunch over."

As he spoke, he helped the marquis's wife take the food off the servants' trays and placed them one by one on the small stone table in the pavilion.

Jiang Yimo and Xie Wang stood up and wanted to help but were politely rejected by Madam Hou.

She had no choice but to sit down and watch Marquis Jingming and his wife work in perfect harmony to arrange the dishes.

The couple did not sit down until the servants brought all their lunch.

At this time, what made Jiang Yimo curious was that both Jingming Hou and his wife exuded a strong smell of wood smoke and oil fumes, and their clothes had traces of being scratched by firewood charcoal.

Did the couple cook this lunch themselves?

There is a popular saying among the ancients: A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. It is a very rare thing that a man of such noble status as Marquis Jingming would be willing to enter the kitchen.

When the Marquis of Jingming and his wife sat down, the Marquis' wife said, "My husband told me that you are the Miss Momo that Empress Xian often mentioned to us."

Mrs. Hou looked at Jiang Yimo and smiled lovingly. Not only was she pretty and elegant, but she also spoke very gently.

Her voice is melodious and a little sweet, and she speaks like singing a song, which is very pleasant to listen to and very attractive.

No wonder Marquis Jingming loves her so much.

Who wouldn’t love such a gentle woman?

The marquis's wife looked her up and down, and she also looked at the marquis's wife.

"Yes, Madam Hou. My name is Jiang Yimo."

"Then Auntie will call you Momo from now on."

"can!"

Madam Hou stared at Jiang Yimo with a smile on her face for a long time. In short, the more she looked at the girl in front of her, the more she liked her.

This little girl has a delicate and small face, fair skin, elegant and graceful features, slender willow-shaped eyebrows, a pair of big eyes as clear as autumn water, which flicker and are very lively, a small nose, and a cherry-like mouth...

This little girl is not only pretty but also very cute. If she and her husband also had such a pretty little girl, they would definitely spoil her very much.

Thinking of this, she sighed in her heart: It's a pity that she doesn't even have the chance to be a mother in this life. However, her husband still treats her like a little girl. A few years ago, her father-in-law was so angry about her infertility that he fell seriously ill. Not long after, her father-in-law died.

At that time, she advised her husband to take a concubine to carry on his family line, but he not only refused, he also scolded her for it. That night was the first time she and her husband had quarreled in their many years of marriage. In all their marriage time, her husband had never lost his temper in front of her. From then on, she never mentioned the matter of persuading him to take a concubine again, and they have been reconciled ever since then.

Recalling the little things that happened between her and Marquis Jingming in the past, she lost herself in thought without realizing it. It was not until Marquis Jingming reached out and tugged at the hem of her clothes that she came back to her senses.

"Oh, Momo and Hen'er are hungry, right? Let's grab chopsticks and eat."

While greeting the two, Madam Hou picked up her chopsticks and helped Jiang Yimo pick up a piece of pork ribs and put it in her bowl. She smiled enthusiastically and said, "Momo, today's lunch was made in a hurry, so your aunt only made four dishes and a soup. Why don't you try the braised pork ribs your aunt made to see if they are delicious?"

Say it.

The Marquis's wife looked at her expectantly.

Jiang Yimo couldn't refuse the kindness, so she picked up the chopsticks and picked up the ribs in the bowl and put them into her mouth. She chewed them twice, was surprised for a moment, and then chewed them carefully.

"Aunt, the spareribs are very tender and taste salty and slightly sweet, which suits my taste very well."

Mrs. Hou was very happy to hear this.

"Really? Then eat more."

Then, Madam Hou picked up another piece of pork ribs and put it in Jiang Yimo's bowl.

"Hen'er, have some food too." Madam Hou asked Feng Wuhen to pick up some food.

Feng Wuhen was a germaphobe, so the Marquis' wife didn't dare to serve him any food.

However, although Feng Wuhen always looked aloof and arrogant in front of outsiders, he was quite humble in front of Marquis Jingming and his wife. Otherwise, even though Marquis Jingming and his wife were his uncle and aunt, they could not call him "Hen'er" but "Evil Prince".

The Marquis's wife greeted the young people, and then she also picked up a piece of pork chop for her husband.

"Husband, you haven't eaten properly in the forest for a few days, and you lost so much blood. You are not in good health. You came back to help me light the fire in the kitchen. You should eat an extra bowl of rice."

After hearing this, Marquis Jingming laughed. He did not get angry because his wife revealed that he went into the kitchen to help her. Instead, he felt very happy.

"Okay, since my wife cooks the food herself, I will definitely eat an extra bowl of rice."

Marquis Jingming didn't care that there were other people eating there, he just wanted to be with his wife.

Next, they had a full lunch as Marquis Jingming and his wife kept showing off their love, and they were very full.

After lunch, the four of them sat in the pavilion and drank tea for a while.

Feng Wuhen went into the study with Marquis Jingming to discuss something.

At this time, the two grown men were not here. Jiang Yimo wanted to feel the pulse of the Marquis' wife to see her current physical condition, but she did not dare to speak rashly. After hesitating for a while, she slowly said, "Aunt, I see that you don't look very well. It happens that I also know some medical skills. Can you let me feel your pulse?"

Hearing this, Madam Hou smiled, "Aunt has long heard from Empress Xian that you have superb medical skills and a penetrating mind, so Aunt has long wanted to meet you and want you to take a look at this broken body of yours for me."

"But you and Hen'er have been busy in the woods these past two days to help me find my husband. I know you are very tired, so I wanted to ask you to come to my house in two days to check my pulse, but I didn't expect you to ask first."

Jiang Yimo smiled and replied, "It's okay. It only takes a minute to take a pulse. It doesn't take any physical effort or strain your brain."

The Marquis’s wife had a smile in her eyes.

"Momo, you and Hen'er chatted in the garden for so long just now. I guess Hen'er also told you something about our relationship, right?"

"The old marquis only has one son, but because of something that happened in the past, I was given a sterilizing drug, which caused me to lose my fertility. I have been married to the marquis for many years but have not given birth to a child.

"Over the years, the Marquis and I have been seeking medical advice, but we still haven't been able to conceive. Although the Marquis still treats me very well, I always feel that not having children is the biggest regret for both of us, so my aunt wants you to help see if my body can be cured and give birth to a child for the Marquis."

Jiang Yimo listened patiently to Madam Hou's words and immediately said, "Aunt, I understand your troubles. Just stretch out your hand and I'll help you now."
