C149 Zhao Wenrui Got It
"You seem to be in low spirits recently?" Shen Jingli couldn't help but ask when he saw Zhao Wenrui yawning.
"I don't know what's going on recently, but the more I sleep, the more tired I get, and I'm feeling a little sore at the waist." Zhao Wenrui also felt that he was not in a good condition. Logically speaking, Xu Yanlin should be sleeping well since he had not bothered him these past few days.
"You'll be tired if you sleep too much." Shen Jingli nodded in agreement. When he had nothing to do, he liked to sleep late and would sleep for dozens of hours straight. When he woke up, he felt dizzy and his body felt weak, it was harder than not sleeping at all.
"I've always been in good health. This has never happened before." Maybe he should find a doctor.
Shen Jingli did not have any good solutions, so he could only smile and say a few words of consolation.
Nanny Jin walked in with two bowls of soup, and said: "Today, the manor has brought a few fish, one of them made fish balls, the other made fish soup, Auntie Hu is the best at cooking fish soup, this soup does not have any fishy taste, quickly take the opportunity to drink it."
"You've just finished your porridge and fish soup, you're living quite comfortably." Zhao Wenrui put down his chess piece and ridiculed Shen Jingli.
"Eating and drinking are two words in this world. No matter what, I can't let my stomach suffer. " Shen Jingli took off the chessboard that was placed on top of the fish soup, making the Nanny Jin place the fish soup on top of it, "This fish soup is nutritious, you should drink more."
"We, the couple, might as well stay with you in the future." Time and effort were saved.
Zhao Wenrui laughed, he did not bother to be courteous with him, and brought the bowl to his mouth, but unexpectedly, the fishy smell that assaulted his nose caused him to feel unwell, and when he frowned and wanted to speak, the sour in his stomach had already started boiling.
"Oh, Jinglee... Ugh! This fish soup is too fishy, I can't get used to it. "
Zhao Wenrui quickly put down the fish soup and ran out the door. He held onto the pillar as he vomited non-stop and was dumbfounded. He quickly ordered Nanny Jin to take the fish soup away and walked over to him. Can't you drink fish soup? "
The Nanny Jin was also baffled, "Aunty Hu's cooking skills are excellent. As long as you buy fish, she will cook them for you, especially when the soup is so fresh and delicious that you can't smell any fishy smell at all."
Zhao Wenrui looked at his pale face, pulled the handkerchief from Nanny Jin's hand and wiped his mouth, then said: "Some people would never be able to smell this fishy smell, even the tiniest bit would reflect it greatly. This soup is fine, it's most likely Wen Rui's physique."
Li mama's complexion looked much better. She was just afraid that the fish soup would have problems eating people whole.
"Lady Xu, I'm afraid you're not used to this taste. I like it a lot. Back then, when I was pregnant with Lee Qi, I couldn't smell the fishy smell. Those days were enough to …"
Halfway through her words, she suddenly turned to look at Shen Jingli, the both of their expressions changing.
"Lady Xu, don't tell me you have one as well?"
Shen Jingli never thought about this at all. When he was pregnant with Xun Er before, there weren't any adverse reactions, and even though he had already given birth to a child, he still felt that he and Zhao Wenrui were males in his consciousness.
He stared at Zhao Wenrui's stomach, thinking that it was really magical to be able to pull a child inside.
"There is? What's there? " Hearing that, Zhao Wenrui just wanted to find a bowl of water to rinse his mouth, so he asked casually.
Seeing his dazed look, Hen Jingli couldn't help but want to hit him again. She quickly said to Nanny Jin, "Mommy, hurry up and get someone to bring a doctor back."
It didn't matter whether it was there or not. It was always good to have a doctor examine him and find out what was wrong with his body.
"Sure, I'll go right away." Nanny Jin anxiously ran out the door.
Hearing Nanny Jin's orders, the guards in the courtyard slipped out the door and quickly invited the doctors from the nearby infirmary over.
It was an old doctor in his fifties wearing simple cotton clothes, probably hurried by the guards. When he rushed over, he was panting heavily, and he could not even speak properly. Behind him were two apprentices, one of whom was carrying a medical kit.
"Hurry up and extend your hand for the doctor to check his pulse." Shen Jingli rolled up Zhao Wenrui's sleeves and placed it on a short sword for the old doctor to check his pulse.
Zhao Wenrui was still in a daze, and he still could not understand what that "yes" meant.
"Lady Xu's meridian, ah, although it's still not very long, and isn't very obvious, there's no doubt that it's the meridian of joy." The old doctor shook his head as he continued, "Give him more good food to nourish his body. In the first three months, it's easy for him to become unsteady and do less work."
Zhao Wenrui was stupefied, and did not know how to react.
"Really?" Nanny Jin was actually very happy and quickly fished out a bag to give the old doctor.
"Really, I think it won't even be two months. I have to be careful." The old doctor accepted the reward and felt happy in his heart. While touching this pouch, he could feel that it was not a small amount of silver, but it was at least ten taels.
Zhao Wenrui finally regained his senses, his face revealed a look of ecstasy, and he quickly said: "Reward, a huge reward."
Nanny Jin gave the old doctor a purse which contained 10 taels of crushed silver.
Zhao Wenrui jumped up in excitement. He really wanted to rush out and tell Xu Yanlin that he had a child.
Shen Jingli was afraid that he would be too agitated and do something that couldn't be stopped, hence he quickly pulled him up. "Don't move, sit properly." Following that, he shouted towards the door, "Nian Hua, hurry up and inform Old Master Xu that Lady Xu is pregnant."
Zhao Wenrui happily touched his stomach, which was still hidden from view, and didn't pay attention to the old doctor's warning at all. Since he had no other choice, he could only let Nanny Jin ask him about the details of his pregnancy before asking a young servant to send the old doctor out.
The old doctor was very happy that he was able to get a few dozen taels of silver after checking his pulse. He repeatedly reminded Nanny Jin before leading her little disciple away with her hands behind her back.
"..."
"Old Master Xu, Old Master Xu, something big has happened …" The young man clamored all the way into the study.
Xu Yanlin and Mu Chen were talking about the matters in the imperial court, and upon hearing the commotion, he unhappily frowned, and asked the servant who was accompanying him: "Go out and see who's making such a ruckus?"
Zhao Wenrui was used to living alone, he never brought his personal attendants and maidservant s with him when he went out, let alone come to Mu Chen's home.
The chief walked out with the orders, stopping the young man just as he was about to enter. The young man frowned and asked: "Why are you stopping me?" I have something urgent to tell Master Xu. "
"What is it?"
"Is that something you can listen to?" The youth was so angry that his mouth began to pout. Even the child's father did not know of this news, so how could he casually reveal it to others?
Hearing that his senior and senior was arguing outside, Xu Yanlin could only personally come out and ask, "What is it?"
"Old Master Xu, Lady Xu is pregnant." he said excitedly.
"What?" Xu Yanlin was dumbstruck.
Mu Chen came out from behind with a slightly changed face, but Xu Yanlin, who had reacted, immediately pressed on his shoulder and said excitedly: "Zi An, did you hear me? Wen Rui is pregnant. I'm going to be a father. "
Xu Yanlin was extremely excited, he had asked the Chief Eunuch to reward him with five taels of silver, giving him five taels of silver just for the letter, making him very happy.
"Understood, hurry up and take a look."
"Right, right. I need to hurry and take a look." Xu Yanlin slapped his forehead, "Look at me, I'm really overjoyed. I still have to bring Wen Rui home to tell my parents."
"..."
Ever since Zhao Wenrui knew that he was pregnant, he had been grinning from ear to ear. He was already 22 years old, and his twin girls had already given birth to a few children. Previously, he had been worried that his old age would make it difficult for him to raise a family, and in a few years, the Xu Family would force Xu Yanlin to take a concubine.
"Are you happy?" Shen Jingli poured a cup of warm water for him and asked with a smile.
Zhao Wenrui smiled but did not speak, his entire body releasing a kind of fatherly radiance. Shen Jingli knew that he had longed for this child for a long time, and was happy for him.
"Wen Rui, Wen Rui …" Xu Yanlin entered the door excitedly, and the moment he saw Zhao Wenrui, he went forward and hugged him.
Zhao Wenrui was also happy in his heart, but he still had a sense of propriety. He hurriedly patted his shoulder and said anxiously: "Enough, don't get excited. Be careful or else you might hurt the child."
Xu Yanlin quickly put him down and carefully protected him, "Wen Rui, are you alright? Is there anything wrong with it? "
"It's nothing, Nanny Jin just gave me a bowl of fish soup. I can't stand the fishy smell anymore and retched for a while." Other than that, he felt that everything was normal.
"It's good that you're fine. We don't like fish soup, so we won't drink it anymore."
Mu Chen followed them in. Seeing the two of them like this, his eyes flickered darkly as he turned to look at Shen Jingli.
Shen Jingli felt that the way Mu Chen looked at him was a little strange, it seemed to be a little probing. Furthermore, he felt that Mu Chen's gaze stayed on him for a while.
Knowing that Zhao Wenrui was in good health and listening to Nanny Jin pass on the words of the old doctor, Xu Yanlin was happy to bring Zhao Wenrui home. He wanted to make some preparations to bring Zhao Wenrui back to the Xu Family to report his good news.
Shen Jingli sent them out, and was truly happy for Zhao Wenrui. Since ancient times, a son's bloodline was a big deal, and even a poor family would not be willing to part with their children and grandchildren if they had to eat wild vegetables. Since ancient times, a son's bloodline was a big deal, even a poor family would not want to send their children and grandchildren out if they had to eat wild vegetables.
"Look at how happy Xu Yanlin is, silly." Shen Jingli shook his head and laughed, then sat beside Mu Chen.
"Zhongping is going to be a father." Mu Chen said in a low voice.
Shen Jingli did not sense anything amiss and nodded his head, "That's right, Wen Rui can finally relax now."
Mu Chen's eyes flashed, and then he looked at Shen Jingli's stomach, where Zhao Wenrui was pregnant with, why wasn't Jinglee pregnant with any of them?
Mu Chen did not conceal his gaze at all, and even if Shen Jingli was crazy, he had still noticed it.
"What are you staring at my stomach for? "It was Wenri who got pregnant, not me …" He suddenly realized what was going on and frowned, then slapped Mu Chen: "Stop looking, even if you continue looking I won't get pregnant."
He had no intention of coming here a second time in his life to conceive a child.
