The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

Gu Jinchu sat on the big kang by the window, holding an embroidery frame in her hands and embroidering with her head down.

The plum blossoms above stretch out freely, as if they were real ones.

And the red plum tree in the yard, the flowers are blooming in competition with each other, vying for beauty.

Feeling the fetal movement in her belly, she raised her hand and stroked it gently, "Little Hammer, the plum tree in the yard was planted by your father at your mother's request when your father and mother got married."

At that time, the eldest daughter of Xianghe Gu family was famous for her beauty throughout Shangjing.

Now she has a son and a five-month-old baby in her belly. She has shed the immaturity of her girlhood and has become even more graceful as a young woman.

But her plump cheeks became thin and she looked a little weak, but even so, she still looked pitiful.

"Little Hammer, your father and grandmother will definitely not like your nickname. This is a secret between us, okay?"

The little guy was very strong in her belly, and she thought the nickname "Little Hammer" was very nice.

The name of the eldest son Cheng'en was not given by her. She wanted to fight for it when her husband came back.

Bai Shao came in with a tray, bent down and whispered:

"Ma'am, the medicine is warm now. Please drink it while it's hot."

Gu Jinchu frowned slightly, "The baby is already firmly in place, why do you still need to drink?"

As he said this, he tilted his head back and drank the thick medicine. Bai Shao hurriedly handed him the candied fruit.

"Fifth Master!"

"Master Wu is back!"

The voice of the little maid came from outside the window.

When Gu Jinchu heard this, a smile appeared on her face, and her face was even more beautiful than the crabapple flowers blooming on the windowsill.

She put down the embroidery frame and stood up. She stretched the subtle wrinkles on her body, restrained the smile on her face, and tried to appear more elegant.

The door curtain was opened, and a man in a blue shirt walked in. He had a handsome appearance, with an elegant and gentle smile on his face.

"Husband." Gu Jinchu held her belly with one hand and looked at him with red cheeks.

Jiang Nansheng went to Huai'an two months ago, and she felt like she hadn't seen him for a long time.

...

"Is she good?"

The man's big hand gently stroked her bulging belly. There were thin calluses on his fingertips and palms, with a roughness rarely seen among scholars.

"Husband..."

The woman's voice trembled, and the man lowered his head and held in his mouth what she wanted to say.

The strong and slender arms were raised, the bed curtains fell, and the dark independent space became charming and ambiguous.

Gu Jinchu was held in the man's arms. He raised his hand to grab his arm, and two barely audible words escaped from his mouth.

"Husband..."

The man lifted her chin gently with his big hand and asked her to turn her head.

He wiped the sweat from her forehead and nose, and gently stroked the corners of her lips with his fingertips, narrowing his eyes slightly, "What did you call me?"

The dim candlelight shines through the veil, filling the room with a faint pink color.

The woman's eyes sparkled, and the deep affection in them could not be hidden. She opened her red lips and called softly, "Nan Sheng..."

She turned around, holding her belly, and put her arms around his strong arms, rubbing her nose against his Adam's apple and behind his ears.

Those were his most sensitive areas.

The man lowered his eyes, making it hard to guess his expression. "Do you really want it?"

"When I was pregnant with Cheng'en, didn't the imperial physician tell me that after three months I could..."

"We had that experience too, and it's been more than five months now..." Gu Jinchu said, looking at him cautiously.

Since Jiang Nansheng entered the Dali Temple, he has become more introverted as time goes by, and she can no longer see through him.

"My dear husband, if you are tired, just take a rest." As she said this, she grabbed the underwear she had just taken off, feeling bitterness and unspeakable embarrassment in her heart.

The man hugged her forcefully yet gently, his big palm covering the back of her hand, his fingers passing through her fingers, clasping her hand tightly and grasping the fence.

"Tell me if you feel uncomfortable."

The man's gentle and low voice sounded in her ears.

...

Hearing Jiang Nansheng calling for water, Gu Jinchu sat limply in his arms.

The hot big hand was resting under her belly, and it had been like this just now.

She raised her head, the corners of her eyes were tinged with moist crimson, and her beauty was filled with a flirtatious charm that she was unconsciously aware of.

Jiang Nansheng supported her waist with one hand and lowered his head to meet her offered lips.

He held her lips gently, tenderly yet forcefully.

Domineering and strong.

Gu Jinchu gradually sank into his eyes.

She seemed to see again the gentle and handsome man she first met. She felt very happy to be looked at so intently by him.

"Nan Sheng..." The words were interrupted by the fetal movement.

"Be good and don't make trouble for your mother." The man chuckled softly and lowered his head to lightly tap the bulge on his belly.

The child inside seemed to be interacting with him and moved several times continuously.

She looked at the doting in the man's eyes with red eyes and carefully wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes.

"Husband, do you hope this baby will be a boy or a girl?"

He took her hand and put it on his belly with her, and the little bulge responded playfully.

"Whether it's a boy or a girl, isn't that what you want?"

......

When Gu Jinchu woke up, there was no one next to him.

If it wasn't for the abnormalities on the body, there would also be marks on the shoulders and chest that were accidentally left.

She really suspected that last night was just a beautiful dream.

Half a year ago, the Shen family's case was rehabilitated, which seemed to further confirm the rumors from the outside world that Jiang Nansheng went to a place like the Dali Temple for the sake of Miss Shen.

She also listened to the various speculations of those ladies, came back and seduced him to have fun every night for a period of time, and then she got pregnant with this baby.

So, he is right.

Whether it's a boy or a girl, it's what she wants...

She opened the bed curtain, stepped onto Bai Shao and stood up, "Madam, you are awake."

The little maid outside heard the sound and started to get busy with her hands and feet.

Gu Jinchu held her stomach and sat up. She took the teacup handed to her by Bai Shao and sipped it. She asked, "What time is it?"

The quilt slipped off her body, revealing her fair and delicate shoulders. The red marks on them made Bai Shao blush.

"Madam, it's already noon."

"It was Master Wu who told Madam not to be disturbed. Master Wu took Master Cheng'en to have breakfast with Madam Dowager, and he also brought the soup that the kitchen cooks every winter."

The year she gave birth to her eldest son Cheng'en, Jiang Nansheng always had a medicinal smell on his body. In the end, it was only when she said she wanted to tell her mother that he explained that he was not feeling well during that time.

When asked what his illness was, he just said it was because he was weak as a child.

Since then, every time the season changes, she would ask the small kitchen to make soup in a different way.

The smell of this medicine lasted until half a year ago, when she became pregnant again.

This time when Jiang Nansheng came back from Huai'an, there was no trace of medicinal scent on his body.

Gu Jinchu felt lazy after breakfast, so she let Bai Shao help her walk around the yard.

It snowed last night, and whenever the branches were touched, snow and frost fell down.

Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Gu Jinchu felt much better.

When she first met him, it was also a nice day with clear blue sky after snowing.

The maid Bai Wei came in from the courtyard gate in a panic. When she saw Gu Jinchu, she lowered her head, walked over quickly and bent her body, "Madam."

Gu Jinchu looked at her hesitant look and couldn't help but clench his palms, "Have you found out everything? What is the front hall doing?"

Bai Wei knelt on the ground with a plop. "Madam, it's...it's the Crown Prince's wife who brought people to clean up Luomei Courtyard. They said Miss Shen will be moving in soon."

When Gu Jinchu heard this, his body swayed slightly, and the hand warmer in his hand fell from between his fingers.
