Hearing that a child had fallen into the water, the crowd rushed towards the river, Xiaowan also stood up with her stomach held up, she was not tall enough, so she was unable to see the situation, her heart tensed up, she looked around, but did not see Little Pei and Susu's daughter.
”You wait here, I'll go find it.” Ling Chaofeng helped the Xiaowan to sit down, then turned and walked towards the river side. Susu and Da Qing followed along.
Xiaowan's heart was thumping hard. She had been looking at the crowd when Little Pei suddenly appeared beside him, holding a bunch of wild flowers in one hand and holding onto his little sister with the other. His little sister even had a few flowers on her head.
”This is for Mother, this is for Grandma, this is for Aunt Susu …” Little Pei divided the flowers into three parts and gave one to Xiaowan. When she raised her head, she saw that none of the masters were there.
Xiaowan finally regained her senses, she pulled her son into her embrace and panted, ”I'm so scared.”
On the other side, Susu realized that the child who fell into the water and was saved wasn't hers, so she ran back to look. Seeing that they were by Xiaowan's side, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Little Pei ran over and put the flowers on her aunt's hair. She smiled and said, ”Aunt is bringing you guys to find your father. They are all worried to death.”
Seeing that the child that fell into the water was not Little Pei, but was instead nervous, looking continuously in the crowd, when he turned around and saw Susu leading them here, his heart relaxed.
Little Pei ran over and asked his father to ride his horse higher for him. Ling Chaofeng then lifted him up and placed him on his shoulder.
Xiaowan laughed until her eyebrows were bent, but when she saw this scene, she suddenly understood.
Why did she always have the illusion that the scene in front of her eyes was familiar, but it wasn't a bad thing, she thought, maybe in her previous life they were a family.
The county magistrate had instructed each family to keep an eye on their child. After that came the Dragon Boat competition, and the Baisha River's gongs and drums were noisy, making it extremely chaotic. Every village was full of energy, and it was a full day of liveliness.
Before the crowd had dispersed, the people in the inn had already retreated, no one knew which village had won the competition, but it wasn't important, and it had been a long time since Baisha County had been so lively. The new father and mother officials were always considerate towards the people. Although they were young, they were immediately respected by the elders.
Seeing the crowd walk past the tavern, some people greeted them and others came to ask for water, Aunt Zhang said to Xiaowan: ”Before you were married, our tavern was a den of tigers and wolves in their eyes. For some reason, after you entered the door, it gradually changed. In the past, Zhaofeng did not like dealing with the people in the town. He would rather be treated as a dark shop and be deserted. Now, even he has changed. ”
Xiaowan looked back at Hubby. He was wiping his son who was sweating profusely from playing with him. His arms and legs were heavy, causing Little Pei to squirm uncomfortably.
”Xiao'er, you should go take a rest. It's all because of your tiredness.” Aunt Zhang supported Xiaowan as she said, ”Your stomach is getting bigger, you have to relax.”
Xiaowan felt that the child in her stomach was rolling and was indeed a little tired. She touched it and said: ”I have never had a child before and I don't understand either, but I have seen a lot.
Xiaowan herself was even more confused. She sighed and said, ”Some day, please ask the doctors to come and see again. I don't know if they can see it, but if it's a pair, then you must be careful. In the past, there were concubines in our palace who were born with twins. Only one of them lived while the other one suffocated to death in his stomach. ”
Xiaowan looked at her in shock. Aunt Zhang hurriedly said, ”Look at what I just said. ”Esteemed wangfei, aunty's not good, look at me …” The Aunt Zhang blamed herself, and tried to explain, ”That was something that happened due to misfortune. There were so many twins born in this world, I was fine.”
Xiaowan anxiously said, ”Aunt, my mother died in childbirth, will I …”
She had always been cautious, to actually say such things to a pregnant woman that she shouldn't have said. However, the words she said, no matter how comforting it was, left a shadow on young lady's heart.
Therefore, Aunt Zhang discussed with Ling Chaofeng and called for a doctor the next day to carefully check Xiaowan's pulse.
The doctor told Xiaowan that she was not pregnant with twins and that she was in good health. As long as she did not lie down and walk around, it would not be too difficult for her to be born.
When the Xiaowan heard this, his mood instantly relaxed.
But when he turned around, the doctor told Ling Chaofeng that there was a high possibility that there were twins in Xiaowan's stomach. When the time comes to give birth, he had to be extremely careful, and not go too far in the future.
