Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 441 Pregnancy (4000K, two chapters in one)

I have to say that General Manager Zeng Shuang is really good. Smart and forward-looking, he can understand Chen Afu's ideas very accurately, and he can also apply them in conjunction with the characteristics of this era.

After that, Chen Afu went to the Nishang Embroidery Workshop again. This is not her dowry shop, but it is Chu Lingxuan's private property. She still has to care about it. Sometimes when interest arises, I will also design some ornaments for the embroidery workshop.

During this period, Qingfeng was engaged to be the second son of the second manager Liu, or the daughter-in-law of the second manager Liu came to ask for the favor. Manager Liu Er was always afraid that Grandma would not regard him as one of her own, and hoped that if his son married Grandma's first-class girl, his relationship with Grandma would be further improved.

Chen Afu asked Qingfeng and if she was willing, he decided for them. Qingfeng is seventeen years old this year and will get married next year.

Hong Fei is also sixteen years old and has not yet met the right family. Hong Fei is beautiful, capable, loyal, and has some martial arts skills, so she wins Chen Afu's heart very much. Chen Afu has always wanted to find a suitable man for her, but even though many people came to ask for her hand in marriage, none of them took any fancy.

Xia Yue and Qiu Yue are also fourteen years old. If there is a suitable candidate, it should be decided.

Fast forward to April 10th, and Chen Afu's little day has been postponed for fifteen days.

In the morning, Grandma Li asked a doctor to come into the house to check her pulse, and Chen Afu was indeed pregnant.

Grandma Li laughed so hard that she laughed and told Chen Afu to sit on the kang and not mess around, and to be extremely careful for at least three months.

When Chu Hanyan and Li Xuan found out, they happily surrounded Chen Afu.

Li Xuan, in particular, seemed to be overly excited. Not only did he keep staring at Chen Afu's belly, but he also kept asking "when will my sister come out?" as if he was extremely anxious.

Chen Afu was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Good morning, I won't be born until the end of winter or the beginning of the twelfth lunar month when it snows heavily."

Dabao and Alu came back at noon. When they heard the good news, they both grinned excitedly.

Chen Dabao said, "Mom, it's best for you to have a girl this time. I like a sister as good-looking as Yan'er."

When Li Xuan heard this, he became even more happy. He pulled Chen Afu's lapel and said, "My father said that the sister born by my aunt will be my little wife, and he asked me to keep an eye on her."

Chen Afu's mouth twitched when he heard it, what is this and what is it. Prince Narui himself is an unruly man, so why should he teach his son like this? It's so outrageous.

Both Dabao and Miss Chu were unhappy, and said in unison, "No! Our sister wants to stay with us and not marry anyone."

When Li Xuan heard this, he cried at the top of his lungs. He said, "My father asked me to take good care of my little daughter-in-law and marry her when I grow up. My father told me this for a long time and asked me not to forget..."

Chen Alu laughed heartily and said, "Shame, shame, you know you want a wife at such a young age."

Chen Afu pulled Li Xuan to his side, wiped his tears and said, "If you talk about looking for a wife at such a young age, people will laugh at you. Don't you think Uncle Lu is laughing at you?"

Chen Dabao was very unhappy. My own sister has been cared about by others before she was born. If she were born as beautiful as sister Yan'er, I don't know how many people would be cared about. Hearing what my mother said, she scraped her face a few times with her fingers and shouted loudly, "Young man, sit on the doorstep and cry for a wife..."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Li Xuan was even more embarrassed. He lay his little head on Chen Afu's lap and sobbed unable to cry.

Chen Afu said deliberately, "Don't laugh, Xuanxuan didn't miss his wife, he was just joking." Then he touched his head and asked, "Xuanxuan was joking, right?"

Li Xuan raised his hazy tearful eyes and wanted to say in his heart, "I really want a little wife." But he was afraid of being laughed at, so he nodded against his will and said, "Well, I was just joking. I don't want a wife."

He is so conflicted and knows how to say things that are beneficial to himself. Chen Afu was secretly happy that the little guy was smarter again.

In the afternoon, Chen Afu sent someone to buy two lactating sheep and some almonds.

Pregnant women's milk will become less and less nutritious. The two little brothers have been sucked up by the nanny. Except for her milk, they don't drink any other wet nurse's milk. Chen Afu had no choice but to boil goat milk with almonds to remove the smell. When the time came, he wrapped the almonds in a cloth and added a small stick of agarwood wood residue inside. With that special taste, the two brothers will definitely drink it. The two little brothers are already half a year old. They are given complementary foods and only drink milk twice a day.

After the sheep were bought, they were kept in the backyard of the main courtyard for easy milking. Mother Lin had milked cows in the past and was very skilled at squeezing a small pot of milk.

Chen Afu entered the space, and a small brocade box contained several agarwood wood residues as big as small toothpicks. These wood residues are not as valuable as green leaves, so Jin Yanzi pecked a few for Chen Afu and put them here for her convenience in cooking.

Chen Afu saw Jin Bei lying on the ground glowing green again. It must be sad because the playful golden swallow has not come back after being away for more than ten days.

Chen Afu picked it up and said with a smile, "Don't be sad, Beibei. The baby hasn't played in the woods for a long time, so it's been delayed for a few more days. Come back to life quickly. Once you're alive, you can go outside with the baby." We're playing." He added, "Mommy is pregnant again. I don't know whether Beibei will be his (her) sister or his sister."

Jin Bei's little body became warm again.

Chen Afu came out of the space and quietly handed the small wood slag to Hong Fei and said, "This is the rare medicinal material given to me by Master Wu Zhi. It can strengthen the body. Make a small bag and put it in with the almonds to cook the lamb. Milk. Throw away the cooked almonds, but don’t throw away this stick. Save it for cooking next time.”

Hongfei nodded, boiled the goat milk and let it warm.

The two brothers were a little disgusted at first, frowning and refusing to drink, but the two mothers coaxed them for a while and still drank. It’s just that there are no bottles in this era, so feeding with a spoon is a bit troublesome.

After dinner, Jin Yanzi finally led Qiqi and Huihui back. This time two beautiful kingfishers followed. The children were very happy and played in the yard with Birdie and Zhui Feng’s family, which was very lively. Even the two little brothers were hugged by their mother and got involved in it, slapping their hands and shouting at the same time, with extremely loud voices.

Little Miss Chu said to Jin Yanzi in a respectful manner, "Jinbao, I have good news for you. My mother has another sister in her belly."

She, Dabao, and Li Xuan all hoped that their mother would have a younger sister, so they preconceived the idea that her mother was carrying a younger sister.

After hearing this, Jin Yanzi was so happy that her little pointed mouth opened wide. Just when she was about to fly to her mommy, she was caught by Li Xuan in his hand. It finally broke free from his little claws and was caught by Dabao again...

As the evening glow fades away its last blush, the night rushes in like a tide, and the full moon hangs diagonally in the sky against the backdrop of stars. The lanterns on the porch were also lit, illuminating the yard. The children were having so much fun that they didn't want to go back to the house.

Chen Afu thought that they had not played like this for a long time, so he let them continue to make trouble in the yard. She sat on the porch, holding her belly with one hand, looking at them gently and peacefully.

The years are quiet and peaceful. If you don't think about the unknown future of the Jingcheng family, these days are really rare and peaceful. Of course, it would be better if Chu Lingxuan was at home.

Ever since they got married, they spent less time together and more time apart. It was the same when she lived in the country, and it was the same when she moved to Fucheng. If there weren't so many little babies making noises around me, I would miss him more and my life would be more difficult, right?

It has been more than three years since she came to this other world, and she has far more worries than the thirty-odd years in her previous life...

Just as Chen Afu was thinking about it, Jin Yanzi finally broke through a few pairs of little claws and flew to hang on her lapel, chirping, "Mommy, Daddy Chu is so capable, and he has a younger brother or younger sister. Haha, people think , you must have gotten pregnant from the time you made Beibei do somersaults, that’s right!”

Chen Afu has a black hair. This little thing is sometimes very naive, sometimes very complicated, and thinks more than humans. She reached out to grab it and gave it a blow. She wanted to scold it, but she looked at the girl not far away and held it back.

Jin Yanzi chirped a few times in displeasure and said, "You humans are so fake. It's the truth, but you don't want people to tell it."

It seemed that was indeed the case, Chen Afu said nothing.

Jin Yanzi continued, "We also went to Fuyuan and Luyuan this time. They were so beautiful. Grandpa, grandma, and Grandpa Zeng, they peeled melon seeds and peanuts for us to eat. They were so..."

Just as he was talking, Chu Lingxuan and the old Marquis suddenly appeared at the gate of the courtyard. Behind them were Chu Lingzhi and Manager Luo who had been running errands in the capital.

Seeing Manager Luo come back, Chen Afu guessed that Chen Shiying's results must have come out.

Chen Afu and several children all stood up to salute the old Marquis and Chu Lingxuan. The grown-up little girl Chu was no longer embarrassed to throw herself into her father's arms, but gave him a standard blessing ceremony.

Chu Lingxuan was still a little disappointed and said with a smile, "My daughter has grown up, and Yan'er and her father are separated." He then smiled at Chen Afu and said, "My father-in-law is back..."

The old Marquis of Chu laughed and said, "Please, my wife, Xuan, bring some food and wine. The old man has been wanting to eat the food you cooked for a long time. The third child is fine, and the official position of the Chen family has not changed. I will let Xuan'er follow their affairs in the evening." Speak slowly."

People are in high spirits during happy events. Chen Afu hasn't heard such hearty laughter from Mr. Chu for a long time.

She was also extremely happy and quickly asked people to bring water to them to wash their faces and hands. She personally took them to the small kitchen to cook meals.

Chu Hanyan and Chen Dabao told Chu Lingxuan about their mother's pregnancy, as if they were offering treasures again, and Chu Lingxuan was overjoyed.

Mr. Chu Laohou was also overjoyed and asked Xiao Mo to quickly invite Chen Afu back so as not to tire her out.

Chen Afu shook his head at Xiao Mo. She just sat aside and gave instructions without taking any action herself.

Chen Afu expected that Chu Lingxuan would be back in these days, so he always had ingredients prepared in the small kitchen, and the old braised soup was also kept. Time is tight, so I made some easy-to-cook braised meats and some refreshing side dishes. She also fried twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts. She planted the garlic sprouts herself and applied them with bird manure, which made them extremely fragrant. Add a few bowls of wontons in chicken sauce, which is Chu Lingxuan’s favorite.

While he was busy, Chu Huai came to the kitchen. He stood at the door and hugged Chen Afu and said with a smile, "The uncle is afraid that the grandma will be anxious, so he asked the villain to report to the grandma. My uncle's matter went smoothly, but it will take some time to get the result. This matter will be announced later. Master Chen and the Third Master will pay attention, please don’t worry, Grandma. Mr. Chen’s official position has not changed, and he is still appointed as the magistrate of Dingzhou Prefecture. However, he was severely reprimanded by the Holy Sage. The Holy Sage also asked Mr. Chen not only to fully cultivate "high-yielding grains" in the Dingzhou area, but also to Assist in the promotion of other areas, and strive to make meritorious deeds... He is also in good health, we came back together, and he has gone home."

Chen Shiying was only reprimanded, and he was asked to perform meritorious service, which showed that he would still be reused after he did his job well... This was much better than expected.

Chen Afu's heart that had been hanging on his chest was completely put into his stomach.

The dishes were placed in the west wing restaurant. The old Marquis shared a table with Chu Lingxuan and Chu Lingzhi. He also set up a small table for Manager Luo, who had worked hard for several months, and took out two jars of blue and white wine.

Chu Lingxuan raised the corners of his mouth and said to Chen Afu, "Sit down and have a rest. Let the servants do those things."

The old Marquis also smiled and said, "My granddaughter-in-law is blessed. You must take good care of your body and give me a fat grandson."

Li Xuan, who was standing aside, said, "My aunt wants to have a daughter, not a grandson."

The old Marquis smiled again and said, "It doesn't matter if I have a granddaughter. If I give birth to a granddaughter this time, I will give birth to a grandson next time."

The corners of Chen Afu's mouth twitched. It turned out that she had always wanted to have more children, but after giving birth last time, she realized how painful and dangerous it was to have children in ancient times. No matter how difficult the birth is, you can't disembowel the abdomen, you have to do it yourself. She was still thinking about having another daughter, but she didn't want to have any more children after that.

After the meal, after seeing off the old Marquis and Chu Lingzhi, Chen Afu rewarded shopkeeper Luo with another hundred taels of silver to thank him for his hard work over the past few months.

After sending the children away, Chu Lingxuan went to the clean room to wash up, put on his middle coat and trousers and came out. Chen Afu took a cloth to wipe his hair. He glanced at her belly first, and the smile on his face became stronger. He pulled her into his arms and said, "Let the servants do these things. Don't work too hard."

Chen Afu buried his face in his arms, smelling the familiar smell, and felt extremely at ease. Cisheng said calmly, "In the future, you won't be away from home often, right?"

Chu Lingxuan smiled and said, "Well, I will be more leisurely during this period."

Chen Afu rubbed his face against his thick shoulder and said, "Then you have to go home every day..."

"Okay, I will definitely try to come home every day." Chu Lingxuan's lips raised. He had always felt that his wife was too independent and too smart, but he never expected that she would be so clingy.

After that, Chen Afu still asked him to sit down and insisted on wiping his hair. Chen Afu liked his ink hair very much. It was black and smooth, especially when it was dry or not, it felt like cold and textured silk in his hand.

From what he said, Wang Cheng's affairs went very smoothly. After the emperor heard about this incident, Long Yan was furious and had people go to arrest the relevant people. A member of the Wang family who was related to the incident was also imprisoned in Dali Temple. Wang Cheng and the two witnesses also entered Dali Temple and were closely protected. Although the results have not yet come out, the witnesses and material evidence are complete. The person who pretended to take military merit and those who helped him will definitely be severely punished...

There is another chapter in the afternoon, which is for keppra.

As soon as something happened to Chen Shiying, the subscription data plummeted. When Qingquan saw the fault, he wanted to cry without tears. The things Chen Shiying's mother did have always been a sharp sword hanging over Chen Shiying's head. Even if they are never exposed, Chen Shiying will always be on tenterhooks. It may be a good thing for Chen Shiying to resolve this matter in advance. In the future, he can behave openly and no longer worry about his scandal being discovered. There is also Chen’s mother who has done extremely bad things and has to be punished. Especially the Wang family and the heroine, they must be given an explanation, and the heroine cannot always be called an illegitimate daughter. . . Based on this, Qingquan made Chen Shiying's past events known to the world. Who knew. . . Why! Qingquan would like to thank the readers who persisted. Your support is Qingquan’s biggest motivation.
