In that compartment, Meng Jinyao returned to Wei Ruixuan. Not long after she sat down, her eyelids began to twitch again. They twitched three times today, which made her feel a little uneasy for no reason.

Gu Jingxi saw her frowning in confusion and asked, "Ayao, what's wrong?"

Meng Jinyao came back to her senses after hearing the sound, shook her head slightly, and replied: "For some reason, my eyelids jumped three times today, and I feel a little uneasy."

Gu Jingxi comforted her softly: "Everything is fine at home and nothing happened. Don't think too much about it."

Meng Jinyao raised her eyes to look at him and asked, "Husband, have you made any mistakes in your recent business?"

Hearing this, Gu Jingxi smiled and said with a firm tone: "Don't worry about this, your husband has always been rigorous and will not make mistakes."

Meng Jinyao nodded, and then asked: "You haven't found out the murderer of His Royal Highness, has the Emperor launched an attack?"

Gu Jingxi replied: "The emperor has never mentioned this matter this year."

Meng Jinyao was stunned: "Didn't you mention it?"

Gu Jingxi nodded and said: "Well, the emperor never mentioned it. The emperor didn't mention it, probably because he felt uncomfortable and didn't want to mention it for the time being, but we can't just leave the case alone."

After hearing this, Meng Jinyao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That should be due to my recent anxiety."

When Gu Jingxi heard this, he remembered that she had been a little unstable recently, and asked warmly, "I won't take a bath tomorrow. How about we go shopping?"

In the past, Meng Jinyao would have been interested, but now she doesn't want to move, and her biggest daily exercise is walking for a quarter of an hour or two, so she refuses without thinking: "Now that I'm older and heavier, I don't want to bother, so you can stay with me at home." That’s good.”

Gu Jingxi responded: "Okay, then we will be at home."

Meng Jinyao thought for a while and then changed her words: "But there seems to be nothing to do at home, so we might as well go out and take a look. I might as well sit on the carriage and take a look outside."

Gu Jingxi also obeyed her.

Meng Jinyao said: "I want to buy a set of jewelry tomorrow. I don't have any new jewelry this spring."

Gu Jingxi responded: "Okay, let's buy two sets."

Meng Jinyao added: "I also want to buy some children's toys."

"it is good."

"I have to buy some snacks and come back."

"it is good."

"Buy something for your second brother, and then send someone to the academy to deliver it to him."

"Okay, buy them all."

……

Gu Jingxi agreed to everything Meng Jinyao said, and wrote down all the things she said she wanted to buy, so that she would not forget to buy anything when she went out on the street tomorrow.

-

When going to bed at night, Meng Jinyao sat on the bed, looking at her swollen legs and feet, and then at her belly, her mind unconsciously falling into random thoughts again.

Gu Jingxi had just finished taking a bath and returned to the room. He saw her dazed with her hair down again. She didn't know what she was thinking. He stepped forward, hugged her into his arms and asked softly: "Ayao, are you there again?" What are you thinking about?"

Meng Jinyao raised her head, looked at him with tears in her eyes, and asked, "Husband, if I die on the day of delivery, will you marry me again?"

Gu Jingxi said without hesitation: "No."

He raised his hand and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Meng Jinyao's eyes, and said softly: "Ayao, don't think so wildly. You will definitely be fine. The imperial doctor checked your pulse and said that you and the child are both fine."

Meng Jinyao choked and said, "What if I'm really gone? Are you serious about not marrying again?"

Gu Jingxi looked into her eyes and told her again without thinking: "Don't marry?"

"Why?" Meng Jinyao looked at him with fixed eyes, doubtful, "You had a hidden disease before, so you never married, but you have recovered now."

Gu Jingxi held her hand, let her touch the position of his heart, and said solemnly: "Since you came here, there is no room for anyone else."

After hearing this, Meng Jinyao felt better, and the discomfort in her heart disappeared instantly. Then she asked, "Then how will you live in the future?"

Gu Jingxi said: "Live alone."

Meng Jinyao smiled and said, "I thought you would die for your love."

"No." Gu Jingxi responded to her again without thinking, and then explained, "What will happen to the child if I die in love? Although the eldest brother and the second brother will take care of them, they are only uncles, not fathers. Our children cannot be left in the care of others, look. Others live their lives with dignity, but grow up carefree."

After Meng Jinyao heard this, she was very satisfied. In fact, she just said casually that she grew up without anyone to protect her after her grandfather passed away. She had a very hard life. How could she expect her children to do the same?

Gu Jingxi said: "Ayao, don't think nonsense, you want to grow old together with me. Didn't you say before that at my age, I would definitely need your help to walk in the future? Without you, who would help me walk?"

Meng Jinyao laughed softly: "There are so many servants, are they just decoration?"

Gu Jingxi said stubbornly: "But I only need your support, otherwise I won't walk and just lie down on the bed without going anywhere."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao smiled even deeper and giggled: "Well, I don't trust leaving the old man to my servants to take care of him." She reached out and held Gu Jingxi's face, and then said, "But old man, don't get fat, otherwise I don’t have the strength to help you.”

Gu Jingxi smiled: "Okay."

Meng Jinyao said: "Husband, we will grow old together."

Gu Jingxi nodded: "Of course."

-

The next morning.

Gu Jingxi was about to go out with Meng Jinyao when someone came from the Meng family. It was Xianglan, the personal maid of her stepmother Dong.

When Meng Jinyao heard Chunliu's report, she was a little confused. How could the maid next to her stepmother come to look for her so early in the morning? He also said that he had something urgent to see her. Her eyelids were twitching yesterday and she felt restless. Could it be that something happened to her parents' family?

Thinking of this, Meng Jinyao's face became solemn and she said to Chunliu: "Go and bring this person here quickly."

Chun Liu responded and retreated.

Gu Jingxi stretched out his hand to hold Meng Jinyao's hand and said comfortingly: "Ayao, please don't be nervous. It's probably not a big deal. I guess it's just a little serious as the maid said."

Meng Jinyao still couldn't let go of her hanging heart. It wasn't that she was worried about her father and grandmother because of how filial she was. She was just worried about her second brother, because she was afraid that something would happen to him in the academy.

Not long after, Xianglan was led into the house by Chunliu.

As soon as she entered the house, Xianglan saw Meng Jinyao, as if she had seen a savior. She knelt on the ground with a plop. Before Meng Jinyao could ask questions, she choked and said: "Girl, please make the decision for our wife."

Meng Jinyao looked confused, why did she involve her stepmother? The stepmother is in charge of the middle child and is the mistress of the house. The servants in the house are managed obediently. The father treats the stepmother very well. What else can he ask her for?

Meng Jinyao said softly: "Xianglan, you got up first to talk. What happened?"

Xianglan did not get up, but choked and said: "Miss, Madam, she, she has had a miscarriage." As her words fell, her tears fell from the corners of her eyes, feeling sorry for her master.
