When the nanny saw this, she immediately took the building blocks and the pinwheel and followed them.
Gu Chenglin felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the room full of women, so he also went outside.
Zhou Ying then sat down and asked about Gu Wanning’s physical condition. At the same time, she told her that Mr. Gu and Second Aunt Gu had asked her to bring her gifts.
“Why didn’t they come in?” Gu Wanning asked in surprise.
“They have no official position and can’t come uninvited. It won’t be easy for them to come in.”
“It was my negligence. I should have arranged it in advance.”
“You don’t have to blame yourself. It’s good that they didn’t come. Otherwise, even if they came in, they wouldn’t feel comfortable.”
“Sister-in-law, did you have any scars on your stomach after giving birth?” Gu Wanning asked softly.
“I have a lot on me; I’m afraid the Emperor will dislike me if he sees me.”
“You’re talking about stretch marks, right? Have you asked the imperial physician?”
“I asked, but they just gave me ointment. They said it would take one or two years to disappear.
“That’s why I wanted to ask if Brother Gu has any medicine that can quickly get rid of it.”
“We don’t have that, but I can teach you a few stretching exercises to help you recover quickly.”
“Really? Hurry up and teach me, please.”
“Let’s go inside.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she followed her into the bedroom and taught her a few movements for postnatal recovery.
After confirming that she had learned it, Zhou Ying said, “Take these movements slowly. You can increase the time spent bit by bit. If you keep practicing like this, your stretch marks will disappear in less than two months.
“But you have to persevere. Even if your stretch marks dissapear, you should continue to practice this. It can make your stomach more tense and elastic, which is also good for maintaining your figure.”
“I’ll remember it.”
The two of them went out and saw Mingyu sitting in the room, drinking tea. When she saw them coming out, she smiled. “What are you two chatting behind my back? You two were hidden in the bedroom.”
“Of course not. Sister-in-law just taught me how to regain my figure. By the way, where’s Zhuangzhuang? Why didn’t you bring him along?” Gu Wanning asked.
“I have. He’s playing outside with his father. He doesn’t want to come in.”
“Brother Zhou is back? No wonder you look so tired.” Zhou Ying teased.
Mingyu was stunned for a moment and blushed. “That’s not true. Don’t talk nonsense.”
Gu Wanning and Zhou Ying laughed when they saw her trying to cover up.
“Alright, how dare you two mock me?” Mingyu put down the cup after saying that and went forward to catch them, but she did not catch any of them.
“You guys continue chatting; I’m going outside to look,” said Gu Wanning, who had run to the door.
After saying that, she tidied up her appearance and carried the First Prince out with her two nannies.
“You’re not in a good mood today?” Zhou Ying asked as she sat beside Mingyu.
“When I came in just now, I heard those people outside urging the previous Empress Dowager to arrange a consort selection for the Emperor. Moreover, a few of them have their eyes on the Empress’s position.
“I’m afraid Wanning won’t have a good life in the future,” Mingyu whispered.
“This is destined. It’s impossible for the Emperor to have only one woman.”
“I know. It’s just that my heart aches for her.”
“Everyone has their own lives. We’ll just help her more in the future.”
“That’s the only way.
“By the way, Zhou Huaiming asked me to let you know when I see you. He’s going to give you the accounts tomorrow, so remember not to go out.”
“Ah, he’s here to give me money; it’s a good thing.
“Come together as a family of three tomorrow.. How about we have a hotpot?”
