Mrs. Rebirth

The only thing I can do is to put my ear on his stomach and listen to the movement in his stomach with my extraordinary hearing, as if I can know how the kid grew up like this.

"Get up, you've been pressing for so long, my legs are numb."

"Then lift your leg up and I'll squeeze it for you."

"roll!"

"Don't get out, I asked An He, and he said that starting this month, we can take appropriate activities, which will benefit the health of you and your baby."

"You also believe this?"

"He's a doctor, isn't he? And... have you held back for so long and don't want to?"

"Aren't you the same?"

Lu Zheng stretched out his hand to untie Zuo Shaoqing's belt, and touched and touched his protruding belly, he couldn't put it down.

The most embarrassing thing for Zuo Shaoqing was to show his belly in front of Lu Zheng. He was fine in other places, but he was a little fatter, but his belly was round. It was not obvious when he was wrapped in a fox fur coat. frightening.

"Don't...don't look..." Zuo Shaoqing covered Lu Zheng's eyes with his hands, and the flush slowly crept up his cheeks.

Lu Zheng really didn't look at it, but lowered his head and kissed that spot gently, drawing out Zuo Shaoqing's anger completely.

As if sensing the changes in his body, Lu Zheng laughed in a low voice, then sealed Zuo Shaoqing's lips, and carefully pressed down on him.

Zuo Shaoqing had just returned from the yamen when Grandma Zhong brought people to Hecheng, and as soon as she entered the door, she heard her asking: "Master Lu, I don't know where the person you want this old slave to take care of, can I ask this old slave to go and see now?" .”

"Don't worry, just rest for one night and come to my yard tomorrow to serve."

Grandma Zhong's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the woman has entered the room already?Then where does Lord Lu want to put the third master?

Or did the third master agree to this?No, it's impossible!

Just when she wanted to ask more questions, Zuo Shaoqing behind her asked, "Has Mother Zhong just arrived? How is Mother? Is the little wolf being naughty?"

Grandma Zhong turned her head and her eyes changed. She hadn't seen Zuo Shaoqing for a long time. The last time she saw him was a thin boy, why did she suddenly...

Even though Zuo Shaoqing's protruding belly cannot be seen in the thick fox fur, his whole person feels much rounder.

"Third Master, the old lady is very good, the son is very good, but I think of you every day."

As soon as Lu Zheng saw Zuo Shaoqing enter the door, he immediately went up to greet him, and covered his cheek with his warm palm, "Didn't you say that you will not come back until Youshi? Why is it earlier?"

"You don't have to go to the yamen to pick me up, it's not far away."

Grandma Zhong observed the expressions of the two of them carefully, and found that they didn't have any grievances, but they were closer than usual, especially the worry revealed in Master Lu's eyes, which puzzled her very much.

"The weather is too cold recently, and the road is slippery again, so I don't worry." Ever since Zuo Shaoqing's sedan chair slipped on the road and almost fell over, Lu Zheng has to pick him up every day. No matter what happens, Zuo Shaoqing can be protected immediately.

"Little Six, put the mothers in order first, then mother Zhong will come to the yard later, I have something to tell you." Zuo Shaoqing left these words and was helped into the inner room by Lu Zheng .

After entering the house, Lu Zheng unbuttoned the fox fur outside for him, took off his coat, and changed him into light clothes, including his boots. He has always done these things by himself.

"Sit down first, and I'll rub your feet for you. Do you still have cramps today?" Since Zuo Shaoqing's belly was five months old, he started to feel uncomfortable all over. He felt uncomfortable here or there. Also smoked at night.

"No more, the meatballs given by Mr. An are very effective, and I feel much better after eating them for a few days."

Zuo Shaoqing looked down at the busy man in front of her, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up.

Although it was too illusory for him to be pregnant as a man, and the process was embarrassing, but every time he saw Lu Zheng's happy expression and his meticulous movements, he felt that it was all worth it.

Not long after, Luo Xiaoliu came in with a food box in person. In their yard, there are only two masters who can come in at present, Luo Xiaoliu and Yinyi, and Anhe.

It's just that from tomorrow onwards, there will be one more Nanny Zhong.

"Do you really want to tell Nanny Zhong?" Zuo Shaoqing still felt awkward.

"Well, you must have a nanny who understands this to take care of me so that I can feel at ease. No matter how good An He's medical skills are, he is still a man."

Zuo Shaoqing nodded in understanding, and the two ate their dinner quietly.

His food intake has basically been fixed now, and he eats about the same amount as Lu Zheng in each meal, but Lu Zheng still feels that he doesn't eat enough.

"Eat more, don't starve my son." Lu Zheng poured half a bowl of chicken soup into Zuo Shaoqing's bowl, and stared at him to drink it before stopping.

Zuo Shaoqing gave him a blank look after finishing the soup, "In my mind, is it only the one in my stomach or the child that is the most important?"

"Jealous?" Lu Zheng grabbed his shoulders and pulled him up.

"Hmph." It would be a lie to say that you don't mind at all, but as long as you are rational, it's fine.

Lu Zheng put his palm on his stomach, bit his ear and said, "Of course he is important, but...you didn't bring him?"

Zuo Shaoqing was about to choke him, when Luo Xiaoliu shouted outside the door: "Masters, Nanny Zhong is here."

"Please come in." Zuo Shaoqing pushed Lu Zheng away and finished. The room was warm with the stove burning. He was only wearing thin clothes, and his stomach could be seen clearly.

Grandma Zhong entered the courtyard and looked around. Lu Zheng's courtyard in Hecheng was not big. The main courtyard only had a master bedroom, a side room and a study room. With such a layout, if anyone lived in it, it must be in the side room.

The door of the side room was closed tightly, and the situation inside could not be seen, and Nanny Zhong couldn't see the way out for a while.

"I'm really sorry for asking Nanny to make such a trip in such cold weather." Zuo Shaoqing asked Nanny Zhong to sit down opposite, blushing, "Madam must be very worried, right?"

He guessed that the old lady must be both happy and worried at the same time, but he didn't know whether she was more happy or more worried.

Grandma Zhong's expression was a little stunned. She hadn't understood it since she entered this mansion, and she always felt that she was obedient everywhere.

She even thought about Master Lu changing his mind when he sees a difference, but it doesn't look like the two masters get along with each other.

She tentatively opened her mouth: "Master Lu said in the letter that he wanted to find some nanny who knew how to give birth to a woman..."

Zuo Shaoqing took a deep breath, "Yes, I guessed at that time that the person who came was Nanny Zhong."

"Then..." What about pregnant women?

Zuo Shaoqing glanced at Lu Zheng, he really couldn't answer this question.

Lu Zheng sat beside Zuo Shaoqing, put one hand around his waist, and said aloud: "I have found someone to take care of Shao Qing. Nanny Zhong is one of my own. I will not hide it from you, Shao Qing." Pregnant, five months."

"..." Nanny Zhong's expression was dull, and she couldn't react for a while.

"Pregnant? Third master?" She looked at Zuo Shaoqing, her eyes fixed on Zuo Shaoqing's stomach, "Isn't it... fat?"

Although the appearance does look like a pregnant woman, but the third master is a man, right?right?

Have they been lied to all along?The third master is actually a woman?

Zuo Shaoqing shook his head, probably no one would believe this matter, "I don't know what's going on, it happened out of nowhere."

Lu Zheng explained more specifically that on the way to the sea, Shao Qing ate a kind of fairy fruit by mistake, and only found out she was pregnant a month later.

Lu Zheng didn't want people to think that Zuo Shaoqing was a monster, so he could only attribute everything to that unknown fruit.

"it is true."

"Exactly!"

Nanny Zhong's expression changed several times, and finally she said joyfully: "If that's the case, it's really God's blessing!"

In fact, Lu Zheng was overthinking. Those who really cared about them would only regard this as a great happy event, but outsiders, he would not let them know the truth.

Nanny Zhong checked Zuo Shaoqing first. Although she was not a doctor, she had experience and quickly came to a conclusion... The third master was indeed pregnant.

"The old slave wants to tell the old lady about this happy event, she will be very happy!"

"Wait a minute, it won't be too late to tell her after returning to Beijing." Lu Zheng didn't intend to send the news by letter. Although it is always safe to send news from the Zhen Guogong Mansion, it should be just in case.

Nanny Zhong knew his concerns, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my master. The tacit understanding between the old slave and his wife for decades, naturally there is a way to tell the lady about this without being discovered."

"Since that's the case, you should write the letter tonight and send it to Kyoto tomorrow."

Nanny Zhong nodded, and then looked at Zuo Shaoqing who was sitting quietly at the side, and told him that it was urgent, and that she was going to follow the third master every step of the way from tomorrow.

A man's pregnancy was like a fantasy to her, but after seeing it with her own eyes, she had to believe it.

If it was someone else, maybe he would sigh a few words, but the pregnant person is the third master, so she can only be happy.

"The third master has a good rest, and the old slave will come back tomorrow."

--------------------------------------

Extra Story

Nanny Zhong was so excited that she didn't fall asleep all night, thinking that it would be great if she could tell the old lady the news immediately.

After the excitement was over, there was deep worry. A man was pregnant like never before. She didn't know anything about how to adjust and how to give birth. She could only try according to the woman's method.

As soon as it was light, Nanny Zhong immediately got up from the bed, washed up and went to the laughing kitchen.

For the sake of not being suspicious of Zuo Shaoqing's food, and also for safety, Lu Zheng only cooks and eats in the small kitchen since he knew Zuo Shaoqing was pregnant, and Luo Xiaoliu or Yin Yi must watch every time.

Of course, Nanny Zhong is not the type of person to be guarded against. Not only that, she volunteered to take Zuo Shaoqing's food, and Lu Zheng agreed without thinking.

After learning about Zuo Shaoqing's food intake and hobbies from the mother-in-law in the kitchen, Nanny Zhong started making breakfast after washing her hands.

Her culinary skills are very good, and she was rarely used when she was in Zhen Guogong's mansion, and she only occasionally made a few special snacks for the old lady.

Zuo Shaoqing can eat and sleep now, without tossing about at all, and often sleeps until dawn, but Lu Zheng suffers, often wakes up in the middle of sleep, and has to check to see if Zuo Shaoqing is well.

"It's time to start. Today the yamen will discuss the resettlement of refugees."

Lu Zheng hugged him tightly, and wrapped the quilt tightly around the two of them, so that even the wind could not penetrate, "Aren't they all stored in the ruined temple in the north?"

"Yeah, isn't the Chinese New Year coming soon? After the Chinese New Year, spring will begin. At that time, whether these people will leave or stay, and how to arrange them is a problem."

Lu Zheng put his palm on Zuo Shaoqing's stomach, and stroked it repeatedly, "Then transfer some money and supplies from the Zhen Guogong's mansion, and set up a running banquet for them, and the rest will be discussed after the Chinese New Year."

Zuo Shaoqing straightened his legs with difficulty, and the posture of lying on his side made him feel heavy in his stomach, "Of course it is faster and better to take the route to the Duke of Zhen Guo's Mansion, but this is a matter for the common people after all, and it should be resolved by the government."

The reputation of Zhen Guo Gongfu is already in the sky, if he does these kind deeds again, he is really afraid that the limelight will be too much.

Lu Zheng also understood his concerns, but he was only worried that Zuo Shaoqing was too tired, "If that's the case, let me handle it, and you can rest well."

How could Zuo Shaoqing really let him go to the Yamen to handle things alone?Zhen Guogong went to the hall, and did any officials dare to speak up?

Lu Zheng knew that Zuo Shaoqing was always very persistent in business affairs, so he took a step back and said, "Then go together, your stomach is getting bigger and bigger, I don't worry about it."

Zuo Shaoqing scratched his belly and couldn't help sighing, he didn't dare to look at himself like this, he just hoped that time would pass faster.

However, every time he thinks about giving birth to a child, he can break into a sweat with fright. When he first found out that he was pregnant, he had nightmares every night, either dreaming that he gave birth to a monster or dreaming that the child came out of his body The scene of crawling out scared him so much that he lost several catties in those few days.

Holding Lu Zheng's hand to sit up, as soon as Zuo Shaoqing spoke, Nanny Zhong came in with breakfast.

"The two masters are up, if the third master is sleepy, eat something before going to bed." Watching Master Lu personally dress the third master with clothes and boots, and serve him to wash up, Nanny Zhong smiled consolingly.

The most important thing for the husband and wife is nothing more than Qin Se and Ming. She can see that these two people really put each other on the top of their hearts, and that is better than anything else.

Now the third master has another child, whether it is a boy or a girl, it is a gift from God.

The breakfast for the two of them was all eaten up, and Nanny Zhong secretly decided to cook more for lunch, "How is the third master eating? If there is something that doesn't suit your appetite, you must tell me."

"Nurse's craftsmanship is praised even by the old lady. I am blessed."

Zuo Shaoqing's appetite has been good since returning to Crane City, and she doesn't like sour food before.

I remember that one day, he wanted to relive the taste of green fruits on a whim, so he asked someone to get some for him, but he almost didn't lose his teeth because of acid, and he couldn't believe that it was something he used to like to eat.

"Pregnant women often have different tastes because of their different physiques. Some like sour, some like spicy food, some things they didn't eat before become very fond of, and some foods that they liked very much now don't touch at all. If the third master If you want to eat, just ask Mammy."

People who have never been pregnant will never understand the hardships of pregnancy.

Zuo Shaoqing was glad that she didn't know she was pregnant at first, she just thought it was seasick, otherwise under the influence of her heart, she didn't know what kind of strange temper she would turn into.

"Okay." Zuo Shaoqing did not refuse Nanny Zhong's concern.

After breakfast, Zuo Shaoqing and Lu Zheng went to the yamen. Madam Zhong originally refused to let them go. In her opinion, pregnant women should rest at home.

In the end, he was persuaded by Zuo Shaoqing's sentence "I am not a woman".

Zuo Shaoqing was a little annoyed. He didn't want to be treated like a woman. It's okay to be pregnant, but thinking about it makes people feel uncomfortable.

But when there are still people telling you not to do this or that all day long, the uncomfortable feeling will be even stronger.

Coming out of the mansion angrily, Lu Zheng grabbed his hand to prevent him from accidentally falling.

"Nurse Zhong is also thinking about your body."

"I know!" Zuo Shaoqing was not angry with Nanny Zhong, but with an inexplicable grievance.

"Don't worry, as long as there is no danger in what you want to do, I will not restrict you, as long as you have to be with me."

From the very beginning, Lu Zheng didn't want Zuo Shaoqing to just take care of the three-acre land in the backyard, and didn't treat him as a normal housewife who couldn't walk outside the door.

Wrapping the fox fur around his body tightly, Zuo Shaoqing looked down. He could no longer see his feet. His body was round like a ball. Fortunately, he wore a lot of clothes so that people would not be able to see that he only had a big belly. up.

"Fortunately, it's winter, what if it's summer?"

"Even if you go out on the street with your belly out, how many people would think about that?" Most people would just think that the magistrate is fat.

Although it's strange to only have a fat belly, it's more acceptable than a man's pregnancy, right?

"Huh, that's true!" Zuo Shaoqing relaxed his mind, and took a step forward with his head held high.

This step was too big, and the step was empty under his feet, and he almost fell.

Lu Zheng hugged him horizontally in his arms, and let out a long breath, "Didn't I tell you to be more careful?" Not so scary.

Zuo Shaoqing was also a little scared, and leaned into Lu Zheng's arms and said, "It's trouble if you can't see the road under your feet!"

Lu Zheng carried him directly into the sedan chair. Zuo Shaoqing's sedan chair was specially prepared for him. It was spacious and covered with thick blankets, so it would not be too crowded for two people to sit on it.

"Get up!"

The four-person sedan chair went on the road smoothly, and the bearers were Kong Wu's powerful bodyguards. Even if their feet slipped, they could keep their hands still. They were specially selected by Lu Zheng.

Arriving at the yamen all the way without incident, Lu Zheng still carried Zou Shaoqing out of the sedan chair, and carried Zou Shaoqing directly into the yamen regardless of Zuo Shaoqing's resistance.

The yamen servants only regarded the couple as a show of affection, except for snickering or snickering.

He Min looked at the sky that had already passed, and teased Zuo Shaoqing: "My lord...it's so early, could it be that Lord Lu loved too much last night?"

"Don't laugh!" Zuo Shaoqing glared, and scolded: "I'm so courageous, you dare to commit the following crimes!"

"Yes, this subordinate is convicted, and I hope you will forgive me, please take care of yourself!" He Min glanced at his body wrapped in a ball, and sighed secretly: No wonder he was so fat that he was carried away even when he was walking. , It's no wonder you're not fat!

"Don't waste time, go and call someone, isn't it to discuss something important?" Lu Zheng waved his hand, interrupting the two people's back and forth.

Seeing that he didn't see off people and left like in the past, He Min guessed that he also wanted to participate in the important affairs of the Yamen, but there seemed to be no such precedent in the court.

"Grandpa Lu...how about asking someone to take you to the back hall to rest?" He Min asked cautiously.

"No, why? I can't participate in the government affairs of Crane City anymore?"

"This...you are a great general, so you can't do it logically." Although He Min was a little guilty, but as the No.1 under the magistrate, he still had to remind him.

"My lord and Shao Qing are one. Do you think such avoidance is meaningful?" Lu Zheng sat down on the main seat and ordered: "Hurry up and call someone here, don't waste my time!"

He Min thought in his heart: You are busy with affairs, so why come to the Yamen to meddle?

Lu Zheng saw what was going on in his heart, glanced at Zuo Shaoqing and said, "Your magistrate is not feeling well today, and I'm afraid you won't get better for a long time to come. If you have something to do, I will do it for you!"

He Min knew that Zuo Shaoqing was in poor health. During this period of time, he left late and returned early, obviously out of shape. He asked worriedly, "Your Excellency, you are not feeling well. What about going back to Beijing to report on your work this year..."

"No, I have already submitted the memorial, and the emperor has already reviewed it."

"So that's how it is." He Min didn't show it on his face, but his heart skipped a beat, secretly speculating: What kind of illness made Zuo Shaoqing put such an important matter on hold?

--------------------------------------

Just think about it

With Lu Zheng present, the officials in the yamen didn't even dare to show their airs. The so-called discussions were mostly Zuo Shaoqing's suggestions.

Fortunately, Zuo Shaoqing's proposals were all reasonable, otherwise a new corrupt official might be born.

It was almost noon, Lu Zheng interrupted Zuo Shaoqing's halfway work, put away the official document in his hand and handed it to Luo Xiaoliu, and then led people out of the yamen.

As soon as they left, the yamen suddenly became lively, and the yamen servants, as big as the judge and as small as the gatekeeper, were discussing the change of the magistrate.

"Your Excellency was so diligent when he took office. He never left before the time of You every day. Hey..."

"It seems that Lord Lu doesn't want the magistrate to stay longer, and he has been following up every day for a month. Do you think... Could it be that Lord Lu doesn't like the magistrate being too busy?"

"There is also this possibility. The magistrate is the wife of Duke Zhenguo first. It is normal for Lord Lu not to like him going out."

Someone held a different view, "That's not necessarily the case. If Lord Lu didn't like your lord's official career, he wouldn't have let him enter the officialdom in the morning. Why wait until now to object?"

"Yeah, yeah, it looks like I've gained a lot of weight, but my complexion has changed a lot. Have you noticed? My lord walks a lot slower now, and he starts to pant after walking a few more steps."

"Could it be... Your Excellency has some incurable disease?"

Everyone thought of Zuo Shaoqing's anomaly today, and they suddenly felt uneasy, "Should we come to express condolences to Sir?"

"No, since your lord didn't say it, you definitely don't want everyone to know about it. It would be inappropriate for more people to know about this kind of thing."

He Min thought for a while, and felt that this was indeed the case, so he concluded, "Then everyone, be diligent, and make up your own minds for small matters in the future, and don't bother adults with everything. Let's discuss major matters first and come to a conclusion before reporting to adults for review. "

Everyone nodded hurriedly, and thought to themselves: The magistrate is still so young, if he really suffers from an incurable disease, then he is really jealous of a talent! "

Just when everyone was guessing, two yamen servants rushed in, "It's not good...My lords...The big thing is not good."

"What's the proper way to be reckless?" He Min taught him a lesson, and then asked, "What happened?"

The two yamen servants looked at each other, patted their chests, and one of them stood up and said, "Just now... I saw... a woman when I was patrolling the streets."

"Is it some kind of fairy beauty? It depends on your future." The master waved his fan coldly and scolded with a smile.

"No... no, we first saw a carriage coming out of the prefect's side door, because the maid and the woman followed the carriage, so we followed it out of curiosity..."

"What! You actually followed the carriage of the magistrate's family? Are you impatient?"

The two yamen servants shouted loudly: "My lord, listen to the little one!"

Hu Min waved to everyone, motioning him: "Say it!"

"The little ones followed the carriage for two streets, and saw that it was going to the temple in Xishan, so they became more curious. The magistrate attached two male masters. I have never heard of a female master. The carriage is tightly covered. It’s tight, it doesn’t look like it’s for men.”

"Maybe it's... the old lady from Zhen Guogong's mansion is here?"

The two yamen servants shook their heads at the same time, "No, we went to Xishan with her, and finally saw her get out of the car outside the temple, it turned out to be...it was %"

"What is it?" an anxious official urged.

"Yes...it's a woman with a big belly!"

"what?"

"impossible!"

"Is it wrong?"

When everyone heard this, they stood up together, surrounded the two yamen servants, and asked each other with one glance.

"What... what's going on here?" an official muttered to himself.

In fact, everyone already has the answer in their hearts, but some don't dare to believe it.

"Look at Master Lu's attitude towards adults, it doesn't look like it." The fan in Master's hand fell to the ground but he didn't have the heart to pick it up.

"Hey... Although the two masters have a deep relationship, but... the reality is that the Duke of Zhen's mansion always needs a successor."

"Didn't your lord adopt a boy last year? I heard that he has been established as the heir."

"After all, it's not my own. The world is unpredictable."

"No wonder, no wonder, no wonder my lord has become haggard today. I heard that people who are depressed are easy to give up on themselves."

"So that's the case, my lord must be very sad, it's all like this."

"Fortunately, Mr. Lu still has a conscience. Judging by his appearance, his heart should still be on the adults, otherwise he would not follow him every day."

"Is he probably worried about adults doing stupid things?"

"..." Everyone was silent.

"Then from tomorrow onwards, everyone should be more careful. Don't bring up this matter in front of adults. Everyone in the yamen has their mouths tightly covered. If I let this official hear any gossip, I will never treat you with mercy!"

Everyone nodded, and couldn't help praying silently for Zuo Shaoqing.

"It's fine if this fetus is a son, but if it's a daughter, wouldn't it have to continue to have children?"

"There are three ways to be unfilial and having no offspring is the biggest. This is common sense. I just hope that adults can see it better." The master sighed.

As early as when Lu Zheng and Zuo Shaoqing got married, everyone knew that such a day would come, but when this day came, everyone couldn't tell what it was like.

Do you take it for granted or feel helpless?Maybe there are some of them. If it were them, their courage to marry a man would be the limit.

Zuo Shaoqing was sent back to the house, leaned on the steps and drank the sweet soup that Nanny Zhong had just brought, listening to Yinyi repeating the incident, the sweetness in her mouth gradually turned bitter.

Fortunately, it was fake, otherwise he really didn't know how to face Lu Zheng when this happened.

"Perhaps all the people in Crane City know by now?"

"Not so fast. At present, only the pilgrims in the temple have heard the news. It will take time to spread it back to Crane City."

Zuo Shaoqing stroked her stomach lightly, her expression was a little lonely, "I don't know if everyone is more happy for Lord Lu or more upset for me after hearing this news."

From Lu Zheng's point of view, this is a good thing, but from Zuo Shaoqing's point of view, it is not a happy thing.

"My lord doesn't know this, it's always fake, don't let this affect your mood."

Zuo Shaoqing didn't expect the silent Yinyi to say such comforting words, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if I don't care about myself, I still have to care about Lord Lu's flesh and blood, he hasn't been born yet, that's all." It's so troublesome, it's really worrying."

"What are you worried about?" Lu Zheng walked in from the outside, warmed his hands on the charcoal basin, and then touched Zuo Shaoqing's stomach.

Zuo Shaoqing stared at him with a half-smile, "Worry about this child, will he have multiple mothers in the future, and can't he call me dad?"

Lu Zheng sat next to him, kissing his side face, "You have to give the child a history, don't worry, the child's 'mother' will definitely be gone by then, and you will still be his legitimate father."

"Hmph!" Zuo Shaoqing knew that such an arrangement was the most suitable, but it would definitely be unpleasant for her child to recognize another woman as her mother, even if it was only in name.

Lu Zheng didn't continue this topic anymore. He lowered his head to listen to the movement in his stomach, and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel today? Did he bother you?"

"Fortunately, I've been much better lately." Zuo Shaoqing showed a loving smile on his face, which made Lu Zheng's heart flutter.

The current Zuo Shaoqing may not be as handsome as before he was pregnant, but his aura is even more attractive.

"You are only allowed to go to the yamen for another two months, and you must stay at home after two months."

"Understood." Zuo Shaoqing pushed his head away, looking unhappy.

However, since An He said that he might give birth prematurely, Lu Zheng has become more strict about the schedule, and Zuo Shaoqing himself doesn't want to go out with a big belly, so it is rare for the two to reach a consensus.

"By the way, have you thought about the name of the child?"

Lu Zheng frowned, "I don't know if it's a man or a woman."

"Then think about a few, and then send it to the old lady for a decision."

Lu Zheng touched Zuo Shaoqing's belly subconsciously, "It's okay, your father is Sanyuan Jidi, so you can choose the name."

"Really?" Zuo Shaoqing's eyes brightened, he didn't expect Lu Zheng to give him this opportunity.

Lu Zheng bit his ear and said softly, "I won't give you this chance until the next child is born."

"You still want to have another child?" Zuo Shaoqing turned joy into anger, glared at Lu Zheng, wishing to kick him out of the door.

"Haha... just think about it!" Lu Zheng didn't dare to say that he sincerely hoped that Zuo Shaoqing would have more children, but it was obviously inappropriate to say it now.

The old lady arrives

A young pregnant woman appeared in the magistrate's house, and the news spread throughout Crane City like a whirlwind in the blink of an eye.

Zuo Shaoqing and Lu Zheng were originally the two most concerned people in this city, and this news involved two people at the same time, so it was hard to think about it.

Of course, Lu Zheng's role in promoting is also indispensable.

When Zuo Shaoqing went out the next day, he clearly felt that everyone was looking at him strangely, with sympathy, pity, and helplessness.

Although it had been expected, Zuo Shaoqing still couldn't stand being looked at with such eyes all the way.

Lu Zheng walked beside him unaffected, all his attention was on Zuo Shaoqing, and he didn't pay attention to what others thought of him at all.

Zuo Shaoqing tugged at his sleeve and said in a low voice, "Forget it, let's go back."

"Don't you want to take a walk? You just walked one street." Lu Zheng held his hand tightly and smiled softly.

Grandma Zhong said that it is best to walk more during pregnancy, Zuo Shaoqing firmly believed in this, so she walked for a while every day, and Lu Zheng always accompanied her.

However, Zuo Shaoqing couldn't carry on with this sport that is usually not difficult.

"I'm not going, I'm afraid it will affect my mood if I go on."

Lu Zheng knew what he was referring to, scratched his palm, and said, "If you don't want to leave, go home. It's the same when we take a walk in the yard."

The two left together, and the pedestrians on the street immediately chatted in twos and threes.

"Did you see that? Master Zuo's complexion has changed like that, so it can be seen that the incident is true." Zuo Shaoqing's complexion was obviously caused by you, okay?

"But Lord Lu still loves him very much."

"Yeah, so it's just to continue the incense, so don't worry about it."

"Amitabha, that's good too. Master Zuo will have a better life in the future after having a child."

Perhaps such news was already predictable, so the news calmed down after two days.

Zuo Shaoqing was lying in the yard basking in the sun. The winter sun was so warm that he was drowsy.

Luo Xiaoliu sat beside him, would he feed him a piece of fruit or pass him a cup of tea, and serve Zuo Shaoqing comfortably.

"Little six, you have made great progress recently, and you are much more sensible than before." Zuo Shaoqing puffed out his stomach, and his appearance looked like old men.

Luo Xiaoliu's gaze fell on Zuo Shaoqing's protruding belly, because it was in his own yard, so Zuo Shaoqing did not make any modifications, and this posture made it more prominent, Luo Xiaoliu's brows gradually frowned.

"Master, how did you get pregnant?"

"I don't know." Zuo Shaoqing thought about this question countless times, and the answer was still unknown, but both he and Lu Zheng believed that it was the effect of the red fruit.

"Do you think I can get pregnant with one in the future?"

"Pfft..." Zuo Shaoqing spit out a mouthful of tea and looked at him in shock, "What did you say?"

Luo Xiaoliu twitched his fingers uneasily, repeating what he said just now.

"you want?"

Luo Xiaoliu shook his head, then nodded again, "I don't want to, but...it's nice to have a child, right? Yinyi will definitely like it."

Zuo Shaoqing patted him on the head, "little six, don't think too much about this kind of thing." It's already a miracle to have him alone, how is it possible that all men in the world can get pregnant?Wouldn't the yin and yang be messed up?

Luo Xiaoliu sighed, "I know, anyway, I told Yinyi that your and Master Lu's children are just like our children... Third Master, will you let the young master treat us kindly in the future?"

The corner of Zuo Shaoqing's mouth twitched, "You think so far!"

Luo Xiaoliu smiled, and handed him an apple, "The Chinese New Year will be in two days, Lord Lu should be back, right?"

"Well, it's almost there." Zuo Shaoqing counted the days in his mind. A few days ago, they suddenly received a letter from the old lady, saying that they would come to Crane City with Zuo Xiaolang to celebrate the New Year. After learning the news, Lu Zheng went out to pick him up. went.

Zuo Shaoqing has been a little uneasy since that day. Although the old lady will be happy, it is really embarrassing to meet her elders in this state.

What's more, there is Zuo Xiaolang, and I don't know if the child can accept it after knowing his situation.

And he has to worry about whether the child will feel sad because of this incident. He discussed with Lu Zheng that even if they have a biological son in the future, they will not deprive Zuo Xiaolang of the title of son.

Zuo Shaoqing felt that Zuo Xiaolang had a resolute personality and was suitable for carrying the burden of the family, while Lu Zheng hoped that he and Zuo Shaoqing's children could live a more relaxed life.

"Have you got all the New Year's goods at home?"

"Don't worry, I bought everything that should be bought. Later, the people and officials gave away a lot, enough for us to have a good year."

"Well, those who gave the gift don't forget to return the gift."

"Understood, I remember it all, and those ordinary people who gave eggs and cabbage were not left behind."

"Good job," Zuo Shaoqing praised, and then asked him to show him the account book of the mansion.

Luo Xiaoliu had always wanted to be the housekeeper of the mansion before, but he couldn't get his turn when he was in Zhen Guogong's mansion, so Zuo Shaoqing let him take over the mansion. Anyway, there are few people in this mansion and there are few things to do.

In the beginning, Luo Xiaoliu was always careless in his affairs, but he gradually got better at it, and Zuo Shaoqing is very satisfied with his current performance.

In the evening, Lu Zheng finally brought him back. He supported the old lady with one hand and Zuo Xiaolang with the other, and approached their yard so close.

Luo Xiaoliu saluted upon seeing this,
