Queen of flowers - Chapter 81

Chapter 81

In this era, women’s fitness means were very restricted.

Running was not dignified as it looked like lunatic behavior.

Swimming, no, it was a taboo related to bad customs, and there was also no special swimming pool.

Rope skipping, aerobics … It could be done after closing the door. But there were no sports underwears in this era. She was now small, waiting for her breasts to develop. She would feel uncomfortable and it would sag easily if she didn’t wear sports underwear.

She was very good at yoga but she gave it up after thinking about it again.

Practicing Yoga had a strong sense of ritual and religion. For people of this era, it might be a bit weird.

Yong Ruo was worried that the people hostile to her would maliciously frame her, saying that she was practicing “Witchcraft” in yoga, and was using the magic trick to charm Feng Liao. If that happened, they would ask for her death or at least peel her skin, no matter how much Feng Liao loved her, no matter how she justified herself.

Of course, such things might not happen but she was better not to take risks.

So she finally chose the fitness method. Aerobic exercises, sit ups, add a set of abdominal movements, push-ups, squats to exercise muscle strength etc.

The actions of walking, crunching, sit ups, push-ups, squats, and stretching the ligaments didn’t have that kind of ritual and religious sense. They were similar to martial arts in this era and so she could avoid political risks.

Out of caution, she didn’t walk around in the King’s Mansion, but only walked along the hand-painted veranda in the Dustless courtyard. After walking around, it was only when she was panting and sweating that she stopped.

Abdominal exercises like crunches were slightly indecent and she needed an exercise mat. So she only did it in the inner room, from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, step by step.

Feng Liao had no doubts. He was not new to walking quickly. He also told Yong Ruo that someone in history did the same and lived to his eighties.

He was new to exercises such as crunches. When she did, he looked over the side for a while and said slightly disgustedly, “This pose … is a bit indecent.”

Yong Ruo continued to do crunches and asked, “Why indecent?”

Feng Liao said very sincerely, “Have you ever seen a turtle? I have seen a turtle turned over by its belly, and the turtle desperately wanted to turn it back, but he couldn’t turn it back. His posture was like you now.”

“Haha ~~” Yong Ruo didn’t hold her breath and laughed directly. She collapsed on the mat.

“I … I’m like a turtle who can’t turn back?” She gasped and asked him, grinding her teeth secretly.

“It’s not you! It’s just your pose!” Feng Liao corrected her.

Yong Ruo sat up, crawled on the mat for two steps, and stopped at a small distance from him.

Then she put on a very charming posture, stretched out a finger and touched Feng Liao’s chin. She whispered, “Seeing such an indecent posture, what does Wang Yes intend to do?”

Feng Liao swallowed his saliva spontaneously. Feeling the warmth of her finger on his chin, he barely maintained his sanity, “I … I … I just want to … I want to learn from you …” In a simple single sentence, he stuttered.

“Want to learn?” Yong Ruo was surprised, and asked with a smile, “Why do you want to learn? Didn’t you say that the posture is indecent and looks like a turtle that can’t get up?”

She lowered her finger and let go of Feng Liao’s chin. She thought, ‘Feng Gongzi seems as if he almost can’t help pull her up! Before deciding to round the room with him, it’s not a good idea to make such jokes!’

Feng Liao breathed a sigh of relief, and his language ability returned to normal, “What about you? Why are you practicing this way?”

He had a little regret in his heart. Her finger stayed only on his chin for such a short time. It felt strange again. He could clearly remember the warmth of that finger.

Yong Ruo changed to a very serious kneeling posture, and said seriously, “This is taught by Yu Fang Lang. He said that this practice is beneficial for the… heir!”

“Beneficial for the… heir!” Feng Liao widened his eyes in surprise, and asked curiously and embarrassedly, “Why?”

“Fanlang said that women give birth to children, after all, it is hard work. If a woman is strong, her waist and abdomen are strong, it would be easier to have a baby. If you control the size of the fetus when you are pregnant, don’t randomly stuff yourself, the chances of dystocia are much lower. “

“Oh …” Feng Liao glanced subconsciously at her waist with his face flushed. He said very uncomfortably but firmly, “You must practice more!”

Yong Ruo was proud in her heart, “But … this pose is not so elegant!”

“Indecent or elegant, What does it matter? The body matters … our children matter too!” He thought for a while, and said hesitantly, “I can practice with you … can men practice?”

“Yes! Yu Fang lang practiced it too. He said men exercising this way is also conducive for the heir. I don’t remember the specific reason.” Yong Ruo smiled and seduced him to practice with her. In her mind an image of Feng Liao with eight pack abs appeared automatically.

“Then I will practice with you!” Feng Liao said cheerfully.

“Okay!” Yong Ruo agreed happily—this is a blessing!

So the two happily worked out together.

Feng Liao was a noble son. He was too spoiled from a young age, his body was thin. His muscles were weak, only slightly stronger than Yong Ruo.

He was secretly ashamed in his heart. He was determined to practice well, and must not be let down by Yong Ruo. Then he thought about it. He should ask the famous sword and others for help.

While working out, Yong Ruo also made a small adjustment to her diet.

She still ate the food of Wangfu, but when she ate, she would pay attention to the combination of vegetarian food and balanced nutrition. At the same time, she targeted the characteristics of Wangfu cuisine’s increased intake of crude fiber and vitamins, and began to drink milk every day. Cows were still sought by Mr.Jiao.

Feng Liao followed her with interest.

At first he was not used to it, especially drinking milk. But after drinking for a few days, he actually fell in love with the taste. For Ruo Ruo’s simple dairy products, he also gradually fell in love.
