In the afternoon, Gu Jingxi came back from work and saw his young wife with a smile on her lips and curved eyebrows. She seemed to be in a particularly good mood today.

When Meng Jinyao saw that he was back, she glanced at the maid next to her. Ningdong on the side immediately understood, blessed herself, and then stepped back wisely.

Gu Jingxi sat down and asked warmly: "Ayao, what are you so happy about?"

Meng Jinyao smiled and said: "There is a happy event today, why don't you guess it, husband?"

Hearing this, Gu Jingxi asked again: "What's the happy event for our family?"

Meng Jinyao nodded and looked at him with a smile, the joy in her eyes almost overflowing.

Gu Jingxi thought about it carefully and didn't expect any happy events at home. The unmarried nieces and nephews at home have not yet made a marriage arrangement. The incident of Xiucai in Xiu Wen has also passed, so what else can happen?

He shook his head gently: "Ayao, I can't guess." After saying that, he picked up a teacup, lifted the teapot and poured tea.

Seeing that he didn't want to guess, Meng Jinyao glared at him and said, "The doctor said I'm pregnant and you're going to be a father."

After hearing this, Gu Jingxi didn't have any reaction, and just said "oh" in a neutral tone.

Oh.

Oh?

oh? ! ! !

Is this the reaction? ? ?

Meng Jinyao felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured on her, and her joy was extinguished in an instant. She stared at him with a helpless expression. Her cold reaction was as if she was not pregnant with his child, and there was no joy at all in becoming a father.

"ah!"

Meng Jinyao suddenly screamed and realized that when her husband was pouring tea, he didn't stop until the cup was full. The tea overflowed onto the table and then flowed down from the table, causing damage to her skirt.

She glared at Gu Jingxi again: "Husband, what are you doing?"

Gu Jingxi also reacted at this time, quickly put down the teapot, and blocked the tea flowing towards her with her sleeves. Seeing that a small piece of her skirt was wet, she hurriedly said: "Ayao, I didn't mean to do it. I'll help you change right now." skirt."

Meng Jinyao stared at him steadily for a long time, and suddenly laughed again. In fact, it wasn't that he didn't react at all, he just couldn't react, so he seemed a little cold, and said warmly: "No, it's just a little wet, it's okay. "

But Gu Jingxi insisted: "It's autumn, it's easy to catch a cold, and catching a cold is not good for you or the child."

After he finished speaking, he picked her up without any explanation and walked into the inner room. He had to change her into a clean set of clothes.

Meng Jinyao was also happy that he had to deal with it himself. After changing his clothes, he also took off his official robe and put on his regular clothes. Then the couple went outside to continue the conversation.

Meng Jinyao looked at him and said: "Husband, this morning my mother and two sisters-in-law learned that I was pregnant, but they didn't show anything. I don't know if they doubt whether the child is yours. They know that your illness has already Have you recovered?"

Gu Jingxi responded calmly: "It's okay. I haven't told my mother about my departure from Beijing tomorrow. I will go to Shou'antang later and explain this matter clearly."

Meng Jinyao saw that he had never smiled or shown anything up to this point, and she couldn't help but wonder if his reaction was a bit slow and he hadn't reacted yet.

Gu Jingxi said again: "Ayao, I'm going to my mother's place now."

Meng Jinyao felt that he was a bit boring now, and she didn't expect him to smile like a flower. She waved her hand and asked him to go to Shou'antang to explain the matter to his mother-in-law, so as to prevent the child's identity from being misunderstood.

Gu Jingxi nodded, got up and walked outside the house. When he crossed the threshold, he tripped on the threshold and stumbled, almost falling.

Meng Jinyao couldn't help laughing when she saw this.

Very good, her husband's reaction was quite great, but he was not as happy and excited as ordinary people, but was too calm and even a little unresponsive. It can be seen that the husband is very happy in his heart and likes this child very much. arrival.

Gu Jingxi heard the laughter coming from behind him, turned his head and looked back, and saw his little wife trembling with laughter. The corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily, and he walked briskly to the Shou'an Hall.

After he left, Ningdong entered the house and said to his master: "Madam, the Marquis must like the young prince very much. When I saw him going out, I smiled brightly and looked like I was so happy."

Meng Jinyao said in disbelief: "You said he laughed?"

Ningdong nodded: "Yes, Mr. Hou smiled very happily."

Meng Jinyao was speechless for a moment, what does this mean? He doesn't smile in front of her, but smiles brightly when he carries her behind his back. Is it possible that he is afraid that she will think that he is not stable enough at his age? This shouldn't be the case.

Ningdong said: "Madam, the Marquis must like the unborn prince very much."

Meng Jinyao touched her belly and replied with a smile: "Don't tell people what kind of little prince you are. He hasn't been born yet. If he is a girl, others will laugh at him. But the girl is very good. Mr. Hou was not sick before. When I'm good, I just think about how great it would be if the Marquis had a girl who looked like him. She must be a beautiful and dignified girl, very attractive."

Ningdong said with a smile: "Madam is still young, it is good to bloom first and bear fruit later. This is the first child of the Marquis. Whether it is a girl or a son, the Marquis and the old lady will be very happy."

Meng Jinyao's smile deepened. She liked both boys and girls.

Shou'an Hall.

Mrs. Gu saw her son entering the house with a smile on his face. She originally believed 80%, but now she believes 100%. The child in Ayao's belly is her son's. She really didn't expect that she would be able to hold a grandson or a baby in her lifetime. Granddaughter.

She said in a warm voice: "Yao Ling, there is no need to come to the ceremony. Please sit down and talk first."

After hearing this, Gu Jingxi sat down below his mother without saluting.

There was no need to ask any more questions. Asking would be an insult to her daughter-in-law. Mrs. Gu got straight to the point and said, "Yao Ling, you heard about A Yao's pregnancy when you came back, right? When did you recover from your illness?" You didn’t even tell your mother. If Ayao hadn’t given you such a big surprise today, your mother wouldn’t have known about it.”

Gu Jingxi said truthfully: "It was good on the way to Huzhou. It's also thanks to Dr. Wen's superb medical skills that he cured his son's disease."

Mrs. Gu was surprised after hearing this: "Did Dr. Wen cure you? Weren't you unwilling to see the doctor or take medicine anymore?"

Gu Jingxi smiled gently: "Ayao likes children. She has mentioned to her son several times that she wants children, whether through adoption or adoption. Since her son has married her, he should be responsible for her and cannot deprive her of her right to be a mother. I think Let’s treat it first and see if it can be cured. If not, adopt a son and a daughter. Fortunately, God is kind and Dr. Wen’s medical skills are superb. After more than a year of treatment, my son has recovered.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Gu understood that her son was attracted to her daughter-in-law, so she wanted to cure her illness. Otherwise, she would have adopted him directly. Her daughter-in-law here was really a lucky star. Originally, she had no hope of having a grandson. But her daughter-in-law gave her hope.

Mrs. Gu said warmly: "This child is hard-earned. Tomorrow we will donate a sum of money to the nursery to accumulate blessings for the unborn child."

Gu Jingxi nodded and said: "Mother's idea is excellent, but her son has official duties and will leave Beijing early tomorrow morning to go to Hangzhou for business. Mother will have to do the donation of money on her behalf."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Gu frowned: "Why are you going to Hangzhou again just two days after coming back?"

Gu Jingxi said: "The last time I went to Huzhou Prefecture, a major case was involved. My son needs to investigate it himself."

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu knew that her son would have to go and there was nothing he could do about it, so she said: "Then you can go with peace of mind, finish things as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible. During this period, mother will help you take care of him." Yao’s.”

Gu Jingxi: "Thank you, mother."
