Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 285 Twins

When the old lady heard her grandson's indifferent words, she felt uneasy. The old lady hurriedly said: "Although we can't decide on your cousin's affairs, you should try to find a way to pay more attention to her. She is alone in the palace. She is already lonely and helpless, if we don’t care about her anymore.”

As he spoke, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears again: "If we don't care about her, who can we let her rely on? How can we deal with her miserable mother?"

Li Ling couldn't stand the thought of her grandmother mentioning this, so she quickly said: "The eighth princess hasn't come out yet, so how can it be the emperor's cousin's turn? Let's wait a little longer."

The old lady sighed after hearing this, turned to look at her grandsons-in-law, and said leisurely: "Even so, we should pay more attention to it. After all, we are Qingluan's mother clan. If the Holy Emperor asks us for our opinions in the future, We should also be prepared."

Of course the grandsons-in-law understood what the old man meant. They all lowered their heads and remained silent.

The old lady waited for a long time and saw no response from several grandsons-in-law, so she looked at the third grandson-in-law first and asked: "I heard that Pingyang's mother's family has two unmarried brothers, right?"

 Pingyang’s mother’s family is the mother’s family of Concubine Lan. Such a noble and peaceful royal relative is naturally the best choice.

When Pingyang heard this, her heart skipped a beat. When she came to Beijing, she often followed her grandmother to the palace, so she was naturally familiar with the Ninth Princess. She knew very well that Qingluan had an unpleasant temperament, and such a woman She didn't even look down on her, let alone her brothers who had countless daughters in her uncle's family. If they were to marry such a crying ancestor, she would be resented to death by her brothers.

Pingyang thought for a moment and hesitated: "There are indeed two unmarried brothers in my uncle's family, but they are both greedy for beauty. There are many concubines in the yard. If the princess gets married, won't she have to suffer a lot? I feel wronged, I think those two cousins ​​of mine are not worthy of the Lord."

The old man sighed slightly, and then said to Xu Wanning: "My dear, is your eldest son from your natal brother's family not married yet?"

Xu Wanning quickly replied: "What do you think of my eldest nephew? Oops! Although we haven't gotten married yet, we seem to have something to look forward to."

The old lady asked doubtfully: "Is your eldest nephew already engaged? Why didn't I hear about it?"

Xu Wanning laughed dryly: "The two families have just talked about it, but the wedding ceremony has not been officially made yet, so no one outside knows about it."

The old lady asked: "Which girl did you talk about?"

Xu Wanning's phoenix eyes moved slightly, and she said with a smile: "This matter has just been discussed, after all, it has not been decided yet. I will tell you after the two families have officially made a decision."

 Qingluan’s stubborn and paranoid temperament, let alone whose family he married into, was not meant to harm others.

 Li Xian couldn't help but come to Xu Wanning's rescue and said: "My uncle's eldest son is a good kid, but he is not suitable for a cousin. After all, there is a generational difference."

Hearing this, Xu Wanning hurriedly said, "That's right. There's a difference in seniority. If you can't succeed, wouldn't you be wronging your cousin?"

Before the old lady could speak again, Li Ling said with a wooden face: "Shu'er's natal brother has just turned twelve and is still young."

Just when he was in embarrassment, word came out that the mother-in-law came in and said that Dr. Zhang from the Tai Hospital had come to ask for a safe pulse for Mrs. Shizi.

Jingshu saluted the old lady and said, "Since the imperial doctor is here, my granddaughter-in-law will go back first."

Hearing this, the old lady subconsciously looked at her grandson-in-law's bulging belly. She swept away the sadness she had felt when she mentioned Qingluan, and said with a smile: "Counting the days, this child is now five months old."

Before Jing Shu could answer, Li Ling smiled and said, "Today is exactly five months."

As he said that, he saluted the old lady and said, "Then let's go back first."

 “Go quickly.” The old lady smiled and nodded.

Xu Wanning still remembered the last time she had calculated the twins for Jingshu. When she saw the two of them leaving, she hurriedly said: "This month we will be able to tell whether the twins are single or twins. I will follow over and have a look."

Seeing that the two sisters-in-law had left, Pingyang was afraid that the old lady would ask her about Qingluan marrying her natal brother again, so he also said: "Grandma must be tired after working for a long time, so let's go back first." As she said this, she secretly winked at Li Xiang. Li Xiang, who was drinking tea with Li Xian at the side, saw this and followed his wife and got up and walked out.

 Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Li Xian saw that there was no point in sitting still, so he followed him out of the house.

In an instant, the originally bustling Anxi Hall fell silent again, leaving only the old lady muttering: "Seeing that these children have been settled, the one I miss the most is Qingluan."

Seeing that the old man was feeling sad again, Grandma Qiu on the side quickly changed the subject and said, "I heard that the eldest lady had come up with a method from outside the domain to help the second lady figure out whether the fetus was a twin or two boys. I don’t know if it’s true or false.”

As soon as the old lady heard this, the gloom in her heart suddenly disappeared, and she said excitedly: "Is there such a thing?"

“I look at it and it seems that the Crown Prince’s wife is pregnant with twins.” In Qingfeng Garden, Doctor Zhang took Jingshu’s pulse and said, stroking his gray beard.

When Xu Wanning heard this, she immediately shouted excitedly: "Look, I have deduced that they are twins a long time ago. If you still don't believe it, you should be convinced now."

Jingshu was overjoyed when she heard this, and asked Imperial Physician Zhang with a smile: "Is it possible for Imperial Physician to be sure now?"

Physician Zhang nodded: "I am 90% sure."

Li Ling's face darkened when he heard it was twins. Hearing what Doctor Zhang said, he became even more worried. He quickly asked, "If it's twins, will it increase the risk of giving birth?"

Physician Zhang said: "This is not necessarily the case. As long as the pregnancy is good, there will be no problem."

Li Ling asked: "What do you think of Madam's pregnancy?"

Physician Zhang replied: "It seems to be fine now, but we have to wait until the last month before we can make a conclusion."

Li Ling asked: "If we learn that the pregnancy is not good by then, is there any way to avoid the risk?"

This is what makes it difficult for a woman to give birth. It is inherently risky for a woman to give birth, but no one can guarantee its safety. When the doctor Zhang saw that Li Ling was still pestering him, the old doctor had no choice but to choose some words of comfort and replied: "Madam, you are right." It’s the perfect age to have children, so don’t worry too much, General.”

Seeing this, Xu Wanning suppressed a smile and said, "It is a long-awaited happy event for my younger brother and sister to be pregnant with twins. Not only is my second brother not happy, but he has a sad look on his face."

Li Ling smiled awkwardly: "Shu'er is already weak. I'm afraid she'll have to suffer even if I give birth to one child. Now these two are here."

Before Li Ling could finish, Xu Wanning interrupted: "Oh, you are really getting more and more like a mother-in-law now. Since even Dr. Zhang said it's fine, you can just relax."

Li Ling was finally silenced by Xu Wanning, but her heart was very worried.

"Mr. Zhang, thank you for your help. I will take you back personally." Li Ling stood up and said to Dr. Zhang politely.

Physician Zhang smiled helplessly.
