The Royal’s Cute Little Wife

C116

When the other women were six or seven months pregnant, they were already very obese. But when Xie Zhen had been pregnant for seven months, she was still slim, only her belly was ridiculously big. In the winter, it was hard to tell because of the heavy cloak or coat covering her. Now that it turned to spring, and as the days warmed up, her belly became obvious.

She took off her thick winter clothes and changed into a light spring shirt. Only now did she realize that her belly seemed to be even larger than a normal pregnant woman.

Yan Yu panicked. Did she have a giant baby? With Xie Zhen's slender body, if the child was too big, it would definitely be in extreme pain during childbirth. Yan Yu could not bear for her to feel happy, his expression grew more and more melancholy every day. If he woke up one morning and found that her belly had grown bigger, he would ask her with a pained heart: "How about we stop having babies?"

Xie Zhen looked at him in disbelief, as if she had heard some crazy thing. "What did you say? How can you say that you don't want it? I've been pregnant for seven months! "

She clearly remembered how much suffering she had endured during these seven months!

At the beginning, she vomited a lot, but after a day, she could not eat more than a few mouthfuls of rice. Even if she ate, she would vomit immediately that night. In the end, when she didn't throw up, she would wake up frequently at night. It was freezing cold at that time, and getting up in the middle of the night would consume a lot of courage. It had already been seven months, and the child in her belly had finally stabilized with great difficulty. She thought that the pain had finally come, but he actually told her to not give birth?!

Xie Zhen came out of his embrace with her bellybelly bulging, and pointed at him with her hand while holding onto her waist. "You won't give birth to me if you don't, this is my child, no matter what you say I won't give up!"

Yan Yu held her fingers, and looked at her belly worriedly. "I heard that giving birth to a child is a woman's calamity, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to take it …"

He knew best that she was so young. How could a child be born there?

Moreover, this baby was obviously older than the average baby!

Xie Zhen frowned, because she truly thought that he was unable to understand. "Stop it? What about the baby? Will it stay in my body forever? "

This was also a problem. Yan Yu frowned, as if he was seriously considering this problem.

In the end, no matter how he thought about it, there was no result, and he was ruthlessly scolded by Xie Zhen. There was nothing he could do, he could only get someone to call the doctor over. In the end, not only did the doctors come, even the midwives who were already prepared had come. A few of them surrounded Xie Zhen to check what was going on.

The doctor could only see some ordinary ailments, there was nothing he could do about the unborn baby. He could only tell Yan Yu, "The wangfei and the young prince are both healthy, don't worry, your highness."

The midwife touched Xie Zhen's belly once more and saw that her cheeks were flushed red without any sign of discomfort. She also bowed and greeted him, "Reporting to Your Highness, Princess Wangfei is very healthy, and the baby in her womb is also very healthy …" Halfway through speaking, she paused before hesitating. "This old servant dares to ask, has any twin been born in the mother's house?"

Xie Zhen did not understand, she thought for a while then shook her head: "No."

The midwife thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's nothing, I was overthinking it."

The midwife had originally guessed that Xie Zhen was carrying a twin, but not every woman had a chance of having a twin, as it required a family inheritance. Therefore, the midwife did not tell Xie Zhen her speculations. Instead, she told the husband and wife to be at ease and assured them that nothing would happen to him.

Xie Zhen and Yan Yu were laymen, if not for the midwife, they would never even think of going in that direction.

After sending the doctor and the midwife out, Yan Yu finally felt a little more at ease.

Xie Zhen laughed at him, "I've already said that there's nothing wrong …"

Actually, it was Yan Yu's fault, he was too worried about her, and would inevitably make a fuss about it. After all, hearing about how giving birth to a child wasn't an easy thing to do. To give birth to a child in such a narrow birth canal, just thinking about it made Xie Zhen worry.

Eight months later, it was a spring day. The grass grew, birds flew, and hundreds of flowers bloomed brilliantly.

Xie Zhen listened to the doctor's advice and walked around the courtyard twice a day. Her belly kept getting bigger day by day and at night, when she was sleeping, she could only lie on her side. She could no longer see her toes, nor did she dare to look at herself in the mirror. It was not easy for her to put up with this for the sake of her children, as if all good humour had been given to the unborn.

Actually, it wasn't as exaggerated as she thought. She was still the same as before, beautiful as ever, except that her belly was a few times bigger.

Sometimes, Yan Yu would go down early in the morning and support her by the waist to walk around the courtyard with her. It was hard to believe that Yan Yu was so tall and had long legs, so she had no choice but to slow down her pace and walk forward, but she didn't complain at all.

These past few days, the two were walking together when Xie Zhen suddenly stopped and exclaimed, "What's wrong?"

She placed her hands on her belly and looked at him with a smile. "Big brother Xiao Yu, it kicked me again!"

Yan Yu's expression relaxed slightly as he supported her and walked to the side of the the Gallery veranda to sit down, "Let me hear it." He squatted in front of her and put his ear against her belly, listening intently.

He waited for a long time, but nothing happened.

Yan Yu straightened his back and asked, "Why are you not moving anymore?"

Xie Zhen covered her mouth and snickered, smiling like a cunning little fox, "It must have disliked you, so when you came, it just stopped moving."

Yan Yu helplessly touched her nose, "I'm its father, how dare it not like me?"

Xie Zhen's lips curved into a provocative smile, "Why would I not dare?"

The two of them stared at each other, and in the end, Yan Yu admitted defeat. She stood up and was about to bring her back to her room, but before she could even take two steps, she saw someone walking over through the Moon Cave door. Only when they got closer did they realize it was Shuang Yan.

Shuang Yan's face was anxious, she anxiously transmitted: "Miss, someone from Duke Dingguo's Mansion has sent a message, he said that you need to go back quickly!"

It was rare to see Shuang Yan in such a rush, so Xie Zhen couldn't help but feel her heart tighten, and ask: "What did you say?"

Shuang Yan shook her head, "I am not sure either, but the person who came is the nannie beside Madam. He said that he has something important to discuss with you."

Mother's people?

Since the Madam Leng had sent people over, it must not be a small matter.

Xie Zhen pulled Yan Yu's hand, and anxiously said, "Quick, quick, help me go to central room to take a look."

She had a big belly and walked very inconvenient to prevent any accidents on the road. It was better to have Yan Yu support her.

After arriving at the central room, the nannie was indeed waiting here. Xie Zhen walked up to her and asked what was going on. She said it was because of Xie Xun. Xie Zhen wanted to ask more about it, but she did not say much, only holding back: "The Empress should go back and personally ask Madame about it … …"

Since Xie Zhen couldn't get anything out of her, she could only follow her back to Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

Yan Yu was not at ease, he had nothing at hand, so he decided to follow her.

After arriving at the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, Xie Zhen walked directly into the Jade Yard. Just as she entered the main chamber, she heard the cold and severe voice of Madam Leng, "How do you usually serve Master? No one told me? If I didn't find out today, then how long would I have to hide from you!? "

Xie Zhen and Yan Yu exchanged a glance. They knew that Madam Leng would definitely be furious at this moment, so they told Yan Yu to wait outside the door. When the Madam Leng was angry, the better the person in front of him would be. She walked into the house and saw two rows of servant kneeling inside, all of them looked like servants of Xie Xun. She supported Shuang Yu and asked: "What's wrong, Mother? Why are you so angry? "He even called me over."

The moment Xie Xun saw her, she acted as if she had seen her savior, and her eyes immediately lit up. Before she could even say the words "sis", she was interrupted by Madam Leng, "You came at the right time and you should teach Ah Xun probably. She is going to piss me off!"

What was so serious?

Xie Zhen looked over to Xie Xun and saw she curled up on the square chair. Her eyes were red as she stared at her innocently. "I didn't …"

Xie Xun had always been the most obedient out of the three children, so Xie Zhen couldn't understand what she did to make Madam Leng so angry.

Xie Zhen called Xie Xun into the house to ask around and found out that Zhong Shang had actually come to look for her today. She originally did not want to see him, but Zhong Shang had actually waited at the Jiaomen for two hours. Xie Xun was worried that he would be discovered if he waited any longer, so she decided to go over to see him. He did not have anything important to do, so he wanted to talk to her.

But when he spoke, he would do something. Xie Xun wanted to leave, but he did not.

The last time Zhong Shang said he wanted to bring her something nice to eat from Lanling, the two of them forgot about it later. Zhong Shang woke up a few days ago and went to the west market to buy some Cream Pine Cream Soup Dumplings. He covered them all the way in his arms but she didn't want to take it when he gave it to her, shaking her head like a rattle. "Big Brother Zhong Shang, I'm going back now."

Zhong Shang grabbed her hand, "Why don't you have a chat with me?"

Xie Xun tried to pry him apart, and revealed a troubled expression as she raised her delicate eyebrows. "My mother is at home …"

She did not want Mother to find out, otherwise she would be scolded.

However, the facts proved that whatever they were afraid of would come. Just as she finished speaking, the nannie by Madam Leng's side came over and asked while walking, "Seventh Miss, who are you talking to?"

"..."

Just like this, the Madam Leng found out that Xie Xun and Zhong Shang had met at the back door.

The Madam Leng flew into a rage and scolded the people around Xie Xun harshly.

Madam Leng did not like Zhong Shang from the start, because he had a past record and his conduct was bad in the past. Now, it would be difficult for her to change her impression of Zhong Shang. Furthermore, he had a secret meeting with Xie Xun, so Madam Leng was even more prejudiced against him.

Hearing servant say that it wasn't their first time meeting in private, Madam Leng was angered to the point that she prohibited Xie Xun from travelling. She was told to stay at home for the next three months and not go anywhere else. Xie Xun explained, "There's nothing between Big Brother Zhong Shang and I … …"

How could Madam Leng hear it? She immediately ordered someone to call Xie Zhen over, and asked Xie Zhen to properly advise him not to interact with him anymore in the future.

After Xie Zhen heard the whole story, she was silent for a moment, and without any warning, she asked, "Ah Xun, what do you think of Zhong Shang?"
