However, even so, Yin Huaixi was still shocked. He guarded Yu Youyao, unwilling to leave.
Auntie Xu brought over some warm water and wiped Yu Youyao’s body. She helped her change into dry clothes and moved Yu Youyao to the east hall. This was the place for confinement.
When Yu Youyao woke up, it was already dark. She had slept for the entire day.
Auntie Xu quickly brought over four poached eggs. “You must be hungry after sleeping for the entire day. Have something to eat first.”
Yu Youyao leaned against the pillow. She was originally starving, but when she saw that it was eggs again, she immediately lost her appetite. “Ah, why are there eggs again? It’s poached eggs with plain water. I don’t want to eat them…”
Auntie Xu quickly coaxed her. “You’ve just given birth. You can’t eat oil or fishy food, nor can you eat salt. It’s best if you eat light liquid food. Eggs are nutritious. Eat some eggs to help eliminate bad body dew.”
Yu Youyao looked reluctant. She was coaxed by Yin Huaixi to eat three eggs, but she couldn’t eat the remaining one no matter what.
Seeing that she was eating in pain, Yin Huaixi ate the remaining one. There was no oil or salt on the poached egg. Not only did it taste bland, but the egg was also hearty. His mouth was filled with the fishy smell of egg yolk, so it was indeed not delicious.
After eating, Yu Youyao felt a little better. Only then did she remember that she seemed to have given birth to two sons. She quickly asked Auntie Xu to bring the children over to take a look.
Auntie Xu smiled and went to the side room to call for the nanny to bring the child in.
At first, Yu Youyao was looking forward to it very much. She did not know what kind of children she had given birth to, but when the nanny brought the child over to take a look, she immediately pursed her lips and pointed at the babies in swaddling clothes. She asked in disbelief, “Did I give birth to them?”
Seeing that her expression was amiss, Yin Huaixi asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yu Youyao looked like she was about to cry. “Did I really give birth to them?”
Auntie Xu glared at her. “What are you talking about? If they aren’t your children, who else could they be? You’re already a mother. Why are you still acting like a child?”
Yu Youyao immediately cried. “Why are they so ugly? Their wrinkled red faces make them look like little old men. It’s too eye-catching…”
For a moment, she couldn’t accept that she had given birth to two ugly children. She thought about how she and Yin Huaixi were both good-looking, so why were the children so ugly?!
Yin Huaixi was immediately speechless. She even despised her children.
Auntie Xu was caught between laughter and tears. “What nonsense are you talking about? The two princes are very good-looking. They’re newborn children and haven’t grown up yet. When they’re a month old, they’ll look different every day. The more they grow, the better they look.”
“Really?” Yu Youyao did not believe it. She suddenly remembered that when Yu Shanming was born, he seemed to be wrinkled too. Later, he gradually looked better, and her mood immediately improved a lot.
Auntie Xu rolled her eyes at her. “Why would I lie to you? You and His Highness are both good-looking. How can your children not look good? You’re already a mother. You have to be more mature in the future. Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
Yu Youyao knew that she was in the wrong and raised her hand to carry her children.
The two nannies quickly placed the children carefully into Yu Youyao’s arms, one on the left and one on the right.
Although Yu Youyao despised the sight of newborn children, as she looked at them, joy and excitement surged in her heart. She hugged the two children and kissed them left and right, teasing them non-stop.
Yin Huaixi watched from the side and was a little jealous. His face darkened as he thought to himself that the young brats were indeed born to snatch his wife from him.
Yu Youyao lowered her head and pressed it against the child’s nose. Her smile was filled with joy. “Yin Huaixi, look. They’re really cute. They’re so soft in my arms.”
Yin Huaixi leaned over, feeling a little disgusted that the two children were ugly. Before he could react, his arms were stuffed with a ball of softness. For a moment, he was flustered. The nanny was shocked. Worried that the emperor would be clumsy and not be able to carry the child well, she hurriedly went forward to help him adjust his posture.
Yin Huaixi hugged the child and sat stiffly on the spot, not daring to move at all. His eyes couldn’t help but land on the child in his arms. He couldn’t help but shake him gently twice, then two more times. Soon, he mastered the rhythm of the shaking.
Auntie Xu watched from the side, and her smile deepened.
Yu Youyao hugged him for a while and couldn’t help but ask, “Which of them is older and which is younger?”
Yin Huaixi hurriedly said, “The one with the bright yellow belt on his swaddling clothes is the Eldest Son, and the Second Son is the one with the purple belt.”
The Eldest Son was born to the emperor’s wife and was the eldest child. He was born as light descended upon the world. His status was already destined from the moment he was born.
Yu Youyao looked down and saw that her Eldest Son was in her arms. Then, she kissed him again. The child was sleeping soundly when he was teased by his biological mother. He opened his mouth and immediately wailed.
When the Eldest Son cried, the Second Son, who was still asleep, also opened his mouth and cried.
Immediately, the room was filled with the cries of children.
Yu Youyao despised her children for crying and being disobedient. Auntie Xu was caught between laughter and tears. The grandmother checked the swaddling clothes. Unexpectedly, as soon as the diaper was lifted, a pillar of water sprayed out onto Yin Huaixi’s face.
Yin Huaixi was immediately stunned.
Yu Youyao was also stunned for a moment. Then, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “Hahaha…”
Auntie Xu also couldn’t help but laugh. She quickly said, “This child has a pure Yang body. His entire body is filled with Yang energy and vitality. The urine of a child is produced by the temperature of his kidney. It’s pure.”
Yin Huaixi’s mind kept echoing. Not only was the young brat born to snatch his wife from him, but he was also here to jinx him. He was not cute at all.
However, seeing that Yu Youyao was in good spirits, he felt that this sacrifice was worth it.
Yu Youyao had just given birth and had been laughing for a while when she felt a little uncomfortable in her abdomen. She did not dare to laugh anymore. The nanny carried the children down to change her diaper.
After Yu Youyao’s excitement passed, she felt a little tired.
Yin Huaixi stroked her pale face with heartache. “Yao Yao, you’ve worked hard.”
Yu Youyao couldn’t help but feel a lump in her throat. She snuggled into his arms and wheedled, “Yin Huaixi, it hurts to give birth. I don’t want to give birth anymore.”
“Alright, we won’t have any more children. We won’t have any more children.” Yin Huaixi also felt a lingering fear. Everyone said that when women gave birth, it was as if they had walked through the gates of hell. Only when he saw it with his own eyes did he realize that these words were true.
During the delivery, Yu Youyao fainted three times. The female doctors were always called to bring her back to consciousness, and the imperial physician was called to perform acupuncture. After giving birth, there were even signs of blood loss. Fortunately, she successfully survived.
Hearing his hoarse voice, Yu Youyao looked up at him and saw that his eyes were green and black. His chin was also covered in green and black stubble, and his face was filled with fatigue. He did not look much better than her, and her heart ached. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Yin Huaixi pulled her into his arms and said nothing.
Yu Youyao leaned safely into his arms and asked, “Has the name of the children been decided?”
Ever since he found out that she was pregnant, Yin Huaixi had already picked out a lot of good names. He wrote page after page. The husband and wife had nothing to do. After excluding some names, there were still many left. At the very least, there was still no conclusion.
