The county magistrate was nothing more than a tool for her. When she needed it, he could satisfy her body and he wouldn't feel wronged.
The moonlight was clear and elegant. In the past, it was the best time for her to enjoy the moon and drink with him. As the night breeze blew, it brought with it a bit of the heat and restlessness of early summer.
Yue Huaiyin waved her fan with all her might, and her perspiring skin became extremely cold, her heart also calmed down. She had to clearly see the reality, and understand how she had to survive in the future.
She was not in a good mood, and other people would not be in a good mood either.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, the sun became more and more domineering, and summer finally came. Even if he woke up early in the morning and opened the door, the sky was already completely bright. He had to sweep the door clean as soon as possible, otherwise, the sun would be poisonous after a while.
When going to the market with Li Prefecture, Xiaowan and Susu both bought a beautiful paper umbrella. Every morning, Susu would come to work on a cart with an umbrella to block out the sun, but Xiaowan didn't have the chance to go out.
Ling Chaofeng had been rather busy recently, he did not have time to accompany her out, but when he had free time, he wanted to bring her to a place other than Li Prefecture to visit, and also pay respects to a few of his friends.
But in the blink of an eye, it was already the end of May. The twenty-seventh birthday was also the birthday of the Xiaowan and it was also the birthday of Ling Chaofeng.
But when Xiaowan opened his eyes today, she immediately felt uncomfortable, and could not describe her discomfort. She stood up to put on her clothes, but his eyes were blurry and her legs went soft, so she sat on her feet.
Could it be, she thought, that her body was too weak, and that the ailments she had accumulated in the past had come out?
On Baisha Town, the servant girl from Siyun Pavilion came to the pharmacy to grab some herbs, and was about to bring them back to make sour plum soup when she saw the carriage from Ling Xiao Inn rushing over, quickly bringing the old doctor from the clinic over.
When the servant girl returned to the Rouge Shop, she then told Yue Huaiyin about the situation. Her eyebrows slightly knitted, could it be that she was sick in some inn, or …
At this moment, Xiaowan was lying on the bed, timidly looking at the old doctor who was sitting at the side. Her husband, Aunt Zhang and the others were also present, causing Aunt Zhang to squat down and caress her forehead, asking politely, ”What happened to this child?”
The old doctor waved his hand and Xiaowan sat up, nestling into Aunt Zhang's embrace. The doctor asked her about Yue Yang and she shyly replied, ”Then in another ten days, if Yue Yang really doesn't come, then that would be right. This old one thinks that my wife is pregnant, and the discomfort and dizziness that she is experiencing is a bad omen. ”
The room went silent for a moment. Xiaowan was the first to recover and asked excitedly: ”Doctor, are you serious?”
Aunt Zhang became nervous and said quickly: ”Doctor, please take a look.”
The doctor laughed, ”It's not difficult to have a wedding vein. I still have this ability. In a few days, if I don't come back, I will be sure to make a mistake.” ”My wife, you must rest well for the first two months. If everything goes well, your shop will have to make an appearance early next spring.”
Ling Chaofeng's expression tensed up, and he stood there motionlessly.
Aunt Zhang gave him two large silver ingots. They were all familiar with each other, but the old doctor was unwilling to take them. He only smiled and said, ”I have been dating you two for more than ten years, I am happy for you.”
Susu was watching the shop from the bottom of the stage. When she heard her aunt say that Xiaowan was not an illness, she was afraid that she was happy and was about to run up to congratulate them.
As expected, the third floor's bedroom was completely silent. The Xiaowan had already laid down and smiled foolishly at his husband who was standing there. She asked in a soft voice, ”Husband, how long are you going to stand there for?”
Ling Chaofeng slowly walked over. Seeing how serious he was, the Xiaowan restrained his smile: ”Husband, are you unhappy?”
”I've always said that I would have to wait a bit longer, but it's my fault every time.” Ling Chaofeng felt guilty in his heart, ”If I don't listen to you, naturally, nothing will happen to me.”
”What do you mean something has happened? I'm really happy now.” Xiaowan pouted, ”Didn't we say to leave it up to fate? Since the child wants to come, we should properly love him.”
Ling Chaofeng carried Xiaowan, his eyes filled with worry. ”I was worried about your body.
Of course Xiaowan knew in her heart that her mother gave birth to a child, and that half her life was on the road. Whether she stayed or went, would depend on the heavens' arrangements.
”I'm just asking you, are you happy?” Xiaowan said.
”Of course I'm happy.” Ling Chaofeng gave her a deep kiss on the forehead, ”Evening, we're going to have children.”
Seeing that his husband had finally become excited, the Xiaowan became happy and said happily, ”Husband, I did not make a wish and my wish has come true.”
Ling Chaofeng naturally didn't understand, she only thought that today was Xiaowan's birthday, and that was probably what she meant. However, he didn't know that Xiaowan had said that she didn't ask for a fat kid from Jade Ring, but the kid had come as well.
”Windward.” Xiaowan looked at her husband deeply, every inch filled with love. ”You're going to be a father now.”
