Lian Ru Yue took two steps forward and said, "This is a joyous occasion. I really have to congratulate Madam Xiao." Grandmother, it's only been a short time since the first day of the new year and all the happy events have already happened. It seems that everything in the Prime Minister's Estate will go smoothly this year. "
"Hahaha …" Lian Niu happily let out a hearty laugh and said, "Yue'er's words are great. This is a good thing, one after the other."
The Xiao Clan's people also smiled. Although their smiles were a bit forced, the joy in their hearts was far from what it had been before.
"Xiao family, I will ask Doctor Lu to come tomorrow to give you a proper pulse check and prescribe some birth control medicine. Then, you will be able to properly treat and treat the heirs of Yanyan. You have done well. I will reward you well." Lian Mu said to the Xiao family.
"Yes, thank you, madame." The Xiao Clan member stood up, bowed slightly, and said.
"There's no need to make any special arrangements. Take care of the baby. Xi Er, go and take out my jade pendant." Lian Mu's mother instructed Lian Xi.
"Yes." Not long later, Lian Xi took out a chain. The pendant was a transparent jade pendant made of Guan Yin. Lian Xi's mother gave the pendant to the Xiao family and said:
"I asked for this Yu Guanyin from the temple, and now I'm giving it to you. Wear it well, and ensure the safety of your baby."
"Yes, thank you, madame." The Xiao family received it in a hurry. This was the best time for her mother to take care of her in the past half year. Her mother truly relied on her son to be expensive.
After returning to the Clear Spring Academy from Qing An Courtyard, Lian Shiya sat down in displeasure and said, "What bad luck! Why did the other side get pregnant as well! "Not only can mother not be doted on alone, but she can also be belittled."
She tightened her grip on the handkerchief in her hand and said, "I never thought that that bitch, Rong Xue, would also be pregnant at this moment. She is the principal wife, and her status is higher than mine, so the children she gives birth to are naturally more valued than mine! How could she be so lucky! "
"I wish she were a freak!" Lian Shiya's eyes flashed with viciousness as she maliciously cursed.
"It's too late to say anything now! Dong mama, come in. " She was afraid that she'd be angered, so she didn't dare to get too excited about the first wife getting pregnant as well. She called for Dong mama to come in.
"Madam, you called me." Dong mama walked in and said.
"I'm pregnant. Give me a pulse check to see if it looks good." The Xiao Clan member extended his hand out and said.
"Yes." Dong mama bowed to the side as she carefully examined the Xiao's pulse. Her brows slowly furrowed.
"How is it?" Xiao Shi's heart was slightly nervous as she asked in a tight voice.
"Madam …" When Dong mama saw the expectant expression on Lady Xiao's face, she immediately hesitated.
"Dong mama, what's wrong? Is there a problem?" Lady Xiao's heart leaped to her throat. Even Shiya was startled. She looked at Senior Servant Dong impatiently.
"Tell me exactly what it is!"
"Madam's pulse shows …" You are not pregnant. " Dong mama mustered her courage and said.
"What …" Madame Xiao only felt her vision darken as her face paled. She couldn't catch her breath immediately, so she held tightly onto Senior Servant Dong's hand. "W-what did you say? You're not pregnant? This …" "How is this possible? I haven't had a problem for two months and just retched a few times just now."
Even Shiya was stunned. She couldn't believe it as she said, "Dong mama, did you see wrongly? How could my mother not be pregnant? Look at it again!"
"Take another look!" The Xiao family stretched out their hands once again, but their arms were trembling uncontrollably.
This time, she was still as sure as ever. "Madam, you really aren't pregnant. If you stop for a month, I'm afraid that the secret formula for a child might cause side effects in your body."
What?
The Xiao family only felt like thunderbolts in a clear sky. Their bodies went limp as they slumped into their chairs, their faces as pale as paper. Their entire bodies trembled as they muttered, "Impossible, impossible, it's impossible for me to be so weak!"
Lian Shiya suddenly thought of something and said, "T-then my mother retched a few times today. Isn't that a sign of pregnancy?"
Xiao Shi's eyes immediately lit up and sat up again. "That's right! Ya'er was right! I even retched! Is it because Dong mama's month is too young that you can't see her pulse? " she asked, suddenly full of hope.
Dong mama shook her head and said, "This servant understands Madam and Third Miss's feelings very well. However, as a doctor, I must tell you the truth. Madam's pulse really does indicate that she's not pregnant. As for retching …" Dong mama paused for a moment and looked at the mother and daughter in front of her who had widened their eyes and were looking at her with great hope —
"In order to conceive, Madam has recently eaten a large amount of oily supplementary meals. She probably ate a lot of them, which is why … Have you never vomited again after what you have said about retching? "
Madam Xiao thought that this was indeed the case. She had retched twice during the morning and had not retched since then.
"That should be because Madam had gone to drink some tea at the old mistress' place, removing the disgusting feeling of nausea. That's why she won't retch anymore." Dong mama explained.
This time, the Xiao family really felt as if the sky had turned dark and the earth was spinning. They couldn't sit still anymore and it was as if all their strength had been sucked out of them. They didn't even have the strength to breathe …
"Why? "Why would God joke with me like that?"
Mother, how about we call a doctor over to take a look?" "Even Shiya refused to give up. She even wanted to have a younger brother, but she didn't have a single one. What would they do in the future?
"No!" This magic will not do! " "Just now, the madame had already told everyone about the pregnancy. If the doctor she invited was not a trustworthy person and he also diagnosed that I'm not pregnant, then he would reveal that I'm not pregnant. When that happens, I won't have any face left, and will become a laughingstock; compared to Rong Xue, what kind of status do I have?!"
The feeling of having one's head in the clouds and being in hell was a huge blow to the Xiao family. But now, she absolutely didn't want to spread the news that she wasn't pregnant! The madame had just rewarded Yu Guanyin, could it be that she would return it?
"Then, then what should we do?" Grandmother had just said that she would invite Doctor Lu over tomorrow. Doctor Lu is Grandmother's man and would definitely not help us. " Even Shi Ya was flustered when she heard Xiao Shi's words.
The Xiao family felt distracted and upset. Their vision went dark and they fainted.
"Mother!" "Mother!" Lian Shiya rushed forward to help her up and carried her back to the inner room with Dong mama. After pinching her in the middle, he drank two bowls of hot soup before slowly waking up. He said dispiritedly, "The heavens are truly unfair to me!" As he spoke, two streams of tears fell down his face.
