ROHYX Chapter 348 : Happy Event (2)

Once Yun Qing received the news, he immediately left everything in his hand and went home. Those who did not know the details thought something had happened at his residence.

At that time, Yuxi was busy picking out fabrics. Although she was only a month old pregnant, she was already preparing to make clothes for her baby. Yuxi's eager appearance made Zijin speechless. She did not know how else to persuade her.

When Yun Qing arrived home, Yuxi was just telling Mama Qu that the fabrics were not suitable and requested for Mama Qu to buy some fine and soft satin. Before Mama Qu could reply, she realised Yun Qing was there. Without saying anything, she withdrew after bowing to Yun Qing.

Yuxi also nodded her head and greeted, "You're back."

Yun Qing responded to her greeting, walked up to her and asked, "Yu Zhi said you are pregnant? Is that true?" The eagerness that flowed from those words was heard even by Zijin, who was ready to exit the room.

Yuxi grinned and replied, "It's true. It's been a month." She was still immersed in joy, and she desperately needed to share this good news with Yun Qing.

Zijin looked at Yuxi's stupid appearance and wanted to cover her face. But it was not her place to talk at that moment, so she hurriedly went out.

Yun Qing was already twenty-two this year, and the children of those who married early had already gone to school. How could he not be overjoyed when he heard that Yuxi was pregnant and he would be a father soon? After the surprise, Yun Qing seriously said, "From now on, all the things in the residence will be left to the servants, so you shouldn't work that hard anymore."

Yuxi couldn't help smiling as she pointed out, "Women from farming families still have to work in the fields even when they are pregnant. I just move my mouth and don't need to exert myself. When did I ever need to work hard? I'm not a person who doesn't know what's important. I'll take care of myself. I won't tire myself out." After saying that, she pursed her lips and chuckled. She told him how Mama Qu and Mama Xi forbade her from doing embroidery and practising wuqinxi during this period. "Even if I did not pay attention to myself, they would also watch over me, so you do not need to worry."

Seeing that the people around Yuxi were so dependable, Yun Qing was quite relieved. Then, he said, "It's still mother-in-law who has acted thoughtfully." Having Mama Xi, an experienced person, by Yuxi's side would save them a lot of work. Even though Yuxi looked as capable, this was also her first time being a mother; there were so many things that she was still unclear of. As for him, he was even more blind on this matter.

Hearing him talk about her mother, Yuxi was a little down and voiced out, "Speaking of which, you haven't even met with my mother yet." She didn't know whether her mother still missed her.

At this point, there was nothing Yun Qing could do. He would like to see his mother-in-law, but unfortunately, this place was too far from the capital. Plus, he couldn't go there right now. After thinking about it, he said, "When there is a chance later, I will take you back to the capital to see your mother."

Yuxi nodded and said, "Okay."

Yun Qing didn't want to stir up Yuxi's emotions, so he said, "I haven't told Uncle Huo about this. If he knows that you're pregnant, he will be delighted too."

Hearing this, Yuxi hastily said, "Then, just let Yu Zhi tell Uncle Huo. But it's not advisable to announce the pregnancy to the public before it reaches three months."

Yun Qing asked curiously, "Why?" His wife had a child. This was a happy event, so why he could not tell others about it?

Yuxi replied, "I'm not sure, but this is the tradition."

Yun Qing was just about to speak when he saw Guo Xun rush in and inform him, "General, there is an urgent military situation. Please return to the barracks immediately."

Although Yuxi was not a clingy person, she still felt a bit depressed when she looked at Yun Qing, who left in a hurry.

Zijin asked, "Miss, are you worried about the General? Don't worry, the General will be fine, and he will be back soon."

Yuxi usually didn't care about this matter before, but now it was different. When she heard that there was a military situation, it must be a war. It also meant danger, causing Yuxi to be somewhat worried. It was just that it wasn't good for her to display this emotion. "Alright, just take out the red satin that I picked out." Whether her child would be a daughter or a son, red clothes were the most suitable for both genders.

Zijin advised, "Madam, you can't do embroidery work. Mama Xi said that too much embroidery will be bad for your eyes."

Yuxi waved her hand and said, "You know I won't do too much embroidery. I will only do it for a shichen, not more. Besides, if I do nothing, just lazing around inside the house is not good for the child and me." If the mother's health was not good, it'd be a wonder if the child's health could still be good.

Zijin did not believe Yuxi's words and ran out to ask Mama Xi. She stopped being naggy when she heard Mama Xi say that it would be alright for Yuxi to do it. However, she only allowed Yuxi to do it just for a shichen. She reminded Yuxi that she couldn't exceed the time limit, causing Yuxi to jokingly call her the residence stewardess.

On this side of the world, Yuxi was happily preparing small clothes for her child, while on the other side, Heshou Xianzhu was lying in bed, with her tears continuously streaming down.

Bing Lan whispered comfortingly, "Master, don't cry. The physician said you can't cry during the confinement. Crying is not good for your eyes."

Heshou Xianzhu wiped her tears, and resentment flashed in her eyes as she asked, "How is that b*tch?" The one Heshou Xianzhu called a b*tch was Xu Ce Fei, who had deliberately caused her to have a miscarriage today.

Bing Lan answered, "She had been put under house arrest by Wangfei and is waiting for Wangye to take care of her once he returns." Xuan Wang would be enthroned at the end of the ninth lunar month. Therefore, the servants hadn't yet changed the way they addressed him.

Heshou Xianzhu clenched the brocade quilt until it crumpled. "I want this b*tch to pay for my son's life." Because of the miscarriage, her health worsened. Thus, the physician told her to seriously recuperate for the first two years. Since she had to be a vegetarian while she was on Wutai Mountain, her health deteriorated, and her little day had not come on time ever since. When she got pregnant, she also did not think about it but did not expect that she could get pregnant. However, when she did not yet know the existence of this child, the child had left her forever.

Bing Lan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Wangye will definitely seek justice for Master."

Unfortunately, the final result did not go as Heshou's wishes. Although Xuan Wang did punish Xu Ce Fei, he did not take her life. After all, Xu Ce Fei had given him a son and a daughter. Moreover, she did not know that Heshou was pregnant, not intentionally. So Xuan Wang only stripped her Ce Fei position, relegated her to a mere concubine, and then ordered her to go to Lingshan Temple. She had to spend three months fasting and chanting for Buddha as an atonement for the unborn child.

After Heshou got the news, she smashed most of the porcelain vases in the room. "Bitch......" Heshou not only hated Xu Ce Fei but also Xuan Wang.

After Yuchen knew about this matter, she sneered. "What a fool!" It would be a joke to say that Yu Xiyu did not know about this matter. And from the way the 9th Prince handled it, he didn't care about Heshou's child either. Murdering someone's male offspring was a severe crime. Still, he wouldn't act carelessly by easily disposing of Xu Ce Fei.

Momo Gui was thinking deeply. "Wangfei, I'm afraid this issue has something to do with the Ninth Wangfei." Since Heshou Xianzhu was already weird, to begin with, no matter who it was, one still had to guard oneself against her. [+]

Yuchen didn't comment much when she heard this statement. Not to mention Yu Xiyu, even if Yu Xiyu's position was replaced by her, she also could not tolerate Heshou's existence. "Didn't Qin Zhao, the northwest Commander-in-chief, bring his younger sister into the capital a few days ago? Now the Ce Fei position has been vacant, just for Qin Yue to fill in."

Momo Gui said, "If this has been designed by the Ninth Wangfei, she has gained two things with this just one move." On the one hand, this move could suppress Heshou's anger, and on the other hand, it could get rid of Xu Ce Fei, who had gotten ambitious recently. This ploy, if she had to say, worked quite successfully.

Yuchen smiled a little and said, "Qin Zhao is close to the Song family. There is no telling how lively it will be once this Qin Yue entered the Xuan Wang Residence." Compared to the Xuan Wang Residence, their Jing Wang Residence was much more peaceful. The only one who liked to look for trouble, Song Ling-er, was now sick. Not to mention causing a mess in residence, now she couldn't even get out of her courtyard gate. Yuchen was currently living a very comfortable life.

They were busy talking when they heard someone coming from the State Residence. Once Mama Luo entered, she immediately knelt on the ground, crying and saying, "Niangniang, your Grandmother has passed out again. The physician said that she may not be able to survive it this time, so please go back and take a look at her!"

Yuchen's whole body froze for a moment. She immediately followed Mama Luo to the State Residence after returning to her senses. As she left the wangfu and got on the carriage, Yuchen had time to ask Mama Luo, "Didn't you tell me that her health was getting better a few days ago? How did it deteriorate to this point?"

Hearing this, Mama Luo could not help but shed tears. "The weather has been too hot these few days, so your Grandmother did not eat anything. Today, some of her appetites returned. She ate some ginseng chicken soup, but I didn't expect her to faint after eating." Zhou Shi's temper has gotten worse since she had a stroke. When things didn't go according to her wishes, she would start cursing, and the maids and old women servants around her would suffer. Even Wen Shi, who served her diligently, didn't escape the brunt. It was said that no filial son would stay by his bed-ridden parents' bedside. This phrase might not be appropriate here, but even Wen Shi's heart had gotten uncomfortable over time. However, she did not dare to be unfilial. She still took care of Zhou Shi, but her attitude was perfunctory. Please read this chapter at xinshou blogspot com.

Sick people's minds would become even more sensitive as they got sicker. How could Zhou Shi not notice the change in Wen Shi? As she turned angrier, the crazier her actions were. In this vicious circle, where Zhou Shi's temper worsened, her health also declined with time.

Yuchen looked grim. The physician had told her before that the Great Old Lady's health would probably not last until the end of the year, so she should prepare herself. Unfortunately, before she could even brace herself for the worse, her grandmother's condition deteriorated again.

Yuchen asked, "Do Eldest Uncle and my father know about this?"

Mama Luo hurriedly said, "Someone has gone to inform them." When Ye Shi received the news of the Great Old Lady's sudden faint, she immediately requested an Imperial Physician to come over. As a result, the Imperial Physician told her to prepare for her grandmother's funeral.

Yuchen's face turned ugly as she continued to ask, "Where is Eldest Aunt them? What is she doing right now?" How could her grandmother have had a stroke if it wasn't for her Eldest Aunt's quarrel with her grandmother? Even though she knew the culprit, she couldn't do anything for her grandmother, making her heart turn indescribably saddened.

Mama Luo said, "The Old Lady went there as soon as she got the news and is now in the Main Courtyard." Everyone knew that this illness was caused by Qiu Shi, but there was no way to hold her accountable. The reason was very simple. The one in charge of the State Residence was her son, the current Duke of the State.

Momo Gui looked at Yuchen's worried look and comforted her, "Your grandmother is a lucky person. She will definitely be able to survive this difficult time." Even Momo Gui herself did not believe this statement.
