Chapter 160 Fourth, Both Are Pregnant

Winter is coming and spring is coming, the 23rd year of Kangxi has come, Ziqing only found out that she was pregnant for more than a month after Rong Ruo left, and now she has begun to show her pregnancy, exactly three months... Ever since Rong Ruo brought Shen Wan back to the capital, Rong Ruo never found an opportunity to return to the south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, Zi Qing and the child in her belly did not see Rong Ruo for three whole months...

Because Ziqing was pregnant, the poisonous ghost found her a yard to live in, and also brought Shumei back to help her take care of her.

"Shumei, let's go for a walk, sitting all day, it's really boring." Ziqing complained while holding Shumei.

"I know you won't be able to sit still, come on! These few days just happen to be a market, and the road will be very lively." Under Ziqing's coercion and lure, Shumei finally got rid of those "masters" who treated Ziqing, "Miss" or something like that.

Ziqing and Shumei put on masks together, and then went out in a carriage. The coachman was sent by a poisonous ghost, and he also had certain skills. He was about 40 years old, and he was very low-key, and he didn't talk much on weekdays.

When they arrived at the ground, Ziqing and Shumei got out of the carriage together, and the coachman parked the carriage aside, followed Ziqing and Shumei, protecting them closely.

"Shumei, look there are candied haws!" In the past, Ziqing liked to eat candied haws, which is sour and sweet, but now that she is pregnant, she can't put it down even more.

"Here, pack ten bunches of candied haws." Shumei said to the vendor.

"Hey, that's good!" The peddler heard that Shumei asked for ten skewers in one go, and happily took the money from Shumei's hand.

"Where do you want to go?" Shumei asked. Shumei didn't dare to call Ziqing by her name outside, for fear that someone who cared about her would notice and reveal their whereabouts.

"Buy more food. We live a little far away from here, so it would be troublesome to call Ah Fu and the others to buy it." Ah Fu was the servant in the poisonous ghost's mansion, and was later transferred to Ziqing's.

The two walked around for quite a while, Ziqing asked Shumei to find a restaurant to sit and rest for a while because her stomach was full and she hadn't come out for a long time.

Ming Yue Building.

"This is a teahouse, everyone drinks tea and eats snacks. The restaurant is too lively, and there are people drinking, which is not good for the child in your stomach." Shumei said.

"You still think carefully, let's go!"

Not long after sitting down, Ziqing could hear the sighs of Naxi people at the next table, and Ziqing's stretched ears...

"Oh, what a genius and beautiful lady! What a pity, what a pity!" A man in his 20s sighed.

"Hey, what do you think Mr. Nalan should do? Shen Wan is a rare talented woman! How could she be so disgusted by Prime Minister Ming?" The other also shook his head, feeling very regretful.

"Even if she is a rare talented woman, so what, she is always from a bad background. I heard that Shen Wan used to be a singer! She is also the top Qingyuan. How can such a big family like Mingfu accept such a woman into the mansion? ?”

……

……

After listening to their conversation, Ziqing finally knew about Rong Ruo's affairs in the capital. Every time Rong Ruo sent letters, she always reported good news but not bad news, so Zi Qing could only passively know about Rong Ruo's affairs. He never mentioned anything about Shen Wan, but he wrote to the poisonous ghost, so he probably told the poisonous ghost about Shen Wan, right?

"Are you okay?" Seeing Ziqing's complexion changed, Shumei asked, holding Ziqing's arm.

"It's okay, let's have some tea and something to eat before going back! I'm a little tired..."

"Okay." Shu Mei looked at Zi Qing and said.

"I heard that Mrs. Jueluo wanted to drive Shen Wan away! Shen Wan didn't say a word, she packed up her things and was about to leave. Later, she was stopped by Mr. Nalan who was on duty that night, so she didn't make it. "

"If you think about it, Mrs. Jueluo is not a good person. It is not easy to manage such a Ming Dynasty well."

"That's right! Shen Wan is suffering..."

"I'll tell them to shut up! Why are you talking about other people's family affairs!" Shu Mei stood up and wanted to walk towards the table.

Ziqing stopped Shumei: "No need, I don't know these things, if they didn't tell me, I probably never would have known..."

"But……"

"Forget it! If Rongruo is such a famous person, it's normal for people to talk about it, and they don't mean anything... Let's go back!" Ziqing stood up and left Mingyue Building.

===================

"Are you back?" Just as he was stepping into the yard, the voice of the poisonous ghost came.

"Why are you here?" Zi Qing asked.

"Rong Ruo has a letter, I'll bring it to you, and tell you about Wan'er by the way."

Ziqing took the letter from the poisonous ghost.

"Qing'er, Liang'er has improved a lot in his knowledge today, which made Ama laugh heartily. After all, he is a direct grandson. Ama and Erniang love Liang'er very much. Everything is fine here. Shake one step at a time, let someone carry it, see if you like it..."

"What happened to Shen Wan?" Zi Qing put away the letter.

"She will be back in a few days."

"Come back?" Zi Qing didn't hear those people say that Shen Wan was coming back! "How come back?"

"The Ming Mansion can't tolerate her. I let her come back, and that's exactly what she wanted."

"That's as good as..."

"Rong Ruo has no way to come back, the emperor won't let him go... I will personally pick Wan'er back when the time comes."

"How is Shen Wan?" In history, Shen Wan will have another child, although the whereabouts of this child has become a mystery in the end...

"Leaving Rong Ruo is naturally not happy, but Yi Wan'er has such a strong temper, and she will never tolerate those insults from Mingfu..."

"When are you leaving?"

"Two days later, it's probably going to be more than a month. If you have anything to do, just tell Ah Fu to do it. Don't go out for a while."

"I know, don't worry!"

Two days later, the poisonous ghost left for the capital, and Ziqing also entrusted the poisonous ghost to deliver the reply letter to Rong Ruo.When the poisonous ghost went, he rode a horse, traveling day and night, faster than the messenger.

"Zi Qing, if you're in a bad mood, just say it! You can't help it if you stay like this all day." Zi Qing sat in the yard again in a daze, with all the books in her hands down.

"I'm fine, just thinking about something, don't worry." Zi Qing comforted with a smile.

"Go back to the house! It's still cold these days!"

"It's early summer again? The days go by so fast! Shumei, what season do you like?"

"I don't like any season, no matter what season, I still don't live like that." Shumei replied, indeed, Shumei didn't even care about her life before, so how could she care about any season?

"I like summer, you know? I met him in that summer..." Zi Qing recalled that early summer, the first meeting with Rong Ruo...

"So that's how it is. If he has time, he will come over these days. Why didn't you tell him about your child?" Shumei asked puzzled.

"Let's talk about it after the child is born, I don't want him to worry..." But the fact is, this child was unexpected, and I don't know if it will survive?In the past few days, Ziqing has been feeling uneasy, making her unable to eat or sleep well...

"You just think too much. If he knows that you have a child, it will be too late for him to be happy. As for worrying, what is there to worry about? With the master of the poisonous ghost around, how could something happen?"

"Okay, I got it, let's go in then!" Ziqing stood up with a smile, and Shumei helped Ziqing into the room.

In the next month, Zi Qing thought about it a lot, but she still didn't tell Rong Ruo about her pregnancy. After all, Shen Wan had just left the capital, so it would be inappropriate to talk about it at this time...

"Zi Qing, what are you doing?" Shu Mei asked, bringing tea and snacks.

"In prenatal education." Ziqing raised her eyes to look at Shumei, and seeing Shumei's confused look, she explained: ""Da Dai Li Ji Bao Fu": 'The ancient prenatal education, the queen's belly is seven months, and As for the banquet room’, ‘the concubine of the Zhou Dynasty was appointed as the king, standing but not sitting, sitting without being out of place, being alone without being cowardly, even though she was angry but not shy, this is called prenatal education’.”

"So it's this one! Then why do you study every day?" Shumei asked.

"This is also one of prenatal education. Let the children in the womb be exposed to these early, and it will be easier to accept them later."

"Well, no wonder, you've become much more energetic these days, I can finally feel relieved, that's right, take good care of yourself and the baby in your stomach." Shumei said with a smile.

"The poisonous ghosts will be back in a few days, right? Then you prepare more things, and I will cook myself." Zi Qing said.

"How can this be done? You are already pregnant..." Shumei immediately objected.

"It's okay, it's just a meal."

"Okay, I'll help you when the time comes, but you can't be too tired." Shumei said.

"Understood, don't worry, I will do what I can. In fact, if you have a child, you should exercise moderately."

======================

Early this morning, Ziqing was busy in the kitchen, and the poisonous ghost sent a message last night that he would go to Jiangnan today.

"Ziqing, come on, I've cooked so many dishes, why are you still cooking? There's no room for the table." Shumei said.

"Okay, it's almost over, I'm fine, I'm not tired, I've been exercising recently, don't worry." Zi Qing comforted.

After cooking, Ziqing waited for Du Gui and Shen Wan.

"Ziqing, are you cooking for us again?" The poisonous ghost entered the house.

"Poison ghost, why are you alone?" Seeing the poison ghost alone, Zi Qing asked suspiciously.

"Wan'er is pregnant, let her rest first." The poisonous ghost looked at Zi Qing and said.

"Well, let's eat then!"

"Are you sad?" The poisonous ghost sat down and said.

"No, it was expected." Zi Qing sat down.

"It's a child that was born that time, and it's about the same time as yours." The poisonous ghost looked at Ziqing's stomach.

"I see, tell her to take good care of yourself! If you're bored, come here to find me." Zi Qing said.

"it is good."
