Chapter 290: Firmness

Liu Ruoxi didn't dwell on it for long, when she heard hurried footsteps outside. Immediately afterwards, a little girl reported, saying that Rong Chenghan was back. Just now it was confirmed that Liu Ruoxi was pregnant, and Mama Chang immediately delivered the news to Ermen Wai and sent someone to deliver a letter to Rong Chenghan. Rong Chenghan received the news, and he rushed back immediately.

Without waiting for the little girl to open the curtain, Rong Chenghan had already picked up the curtain and stepped into the house.

"Auntie......" Rong Chenghan called out when he entered the house, and then saw the second wife Liu sitting in front of Liu Ruoxi's couch, "Mother-in-law......"

When Mrs. Liu saw that Rong Chenghan was back, she hurriedly gave Liu Ruoxi a reassuring look, and then stood up.

Rong Chenghan stepped forward to salute Second Mrs. Liu, but at the same time, he frequently looked at Liu Ruoxi. Mrs. Liu took Rong Chenghan's demeanor into her eyes, and she was relieved and a little funny. The young couple are still young, and they usually look at Rong Chenghan and Lao Cheng, and when they hear the news that his wife is pregnant, this also shows their youthfulness.

"Grandma is a little nervous, you talk to Grandma." Mrs. Liu said a few words to Rong Chenghan, and then beckoned to take Mama Chang and the two big girls of June and Layue out.

As soon as Mrs. Liu left, Rong Chenghan hurriedly arrived at Liu Ruoxi's bed. He looked Liu Ruoxi up and down several times, and finally his gaze swirled back and forth on Liu Ruoxi's face and stomach. Liu Ruoxi raised her eyes to look at Rong Chenghan, Rong Chenghan had a beard on his face, maybe others couldn't see what his face was at the moment, but getting along day and night, Liu Ruoxi could tell it.

Rong Chenghan was very excited, and he was also a little nervous.

"Auntie......" Rong Chenghan called in a low voice again.

"Hey." Liu Ruoxi agreed, and she had to sit up.

Rong Chenghan hurriedly stopped Liu Ruoxi and didn't let her get up. The strange thing is that seeing Rong Chenghan so nervous, Liu Ruoxi's tense nerves gradually relaxed.

"I don't sit up well, where is it so exaggerated. It's not like I'm going to lie like this all the time. Liu Ruoxi looked at Rong Chenghan and said.

Rong Chenghan felt that Liu Ruoxi's words were also reasonable, but he thought about it. Still don't worry about letting Liu Ruoxi get up.

“…… You're pregnant, and it's said that you should be most careful at this time. …… Just now, you vomited the talented imperial doctor. Rong Chenghan's worries also have his reasons.

Liu Ruoxi saw Rong Chenghan's caution and persistence, and sighed secretly in her heart, so she didn't struggle to get up anymore, and only let Rong Chenghan sit down and talk to her.

"Why did you come back, didn't you say that there were a lot of things in the yamen today?" Liu Ruoxi asked Rong Chenghan.

Rong Chenghan sat on the edge of Liu Ruoxi's couch, but his hands kept holding Liu Ruoxi's hand.

"I've arranged proper subordinates for the affairs of the yamen, so it's okay." Rong Chenghan sued Liu Ruoxi and heard the news that Liu Ruoxi was pregnant/pregnant. Of course, he had to rush back immediately, and everything else was put on the back burner. "What do you think?"

"I don't think so." Liu Ruoxi felt it carefully again, "If it weren't for the diagnosis of several imperial doctors, I wouldn't have believed it." ”

Both of them looked at Liu Ruoxi's stomach.

Rong Chenghan slowly let go of the hand holding Liu Ruoxi and carefully placed it on Liu Ruoxi's stomach. Rong Chenghan's body temperature is on the high side, and his palms are dry and warm. was gently touched by Rong Chenghan's hand in her lower abdomen, and Liu Ruoxi actually felt that it was very ironing.

Rong Chenghan's gaze was very focused, and he gently rubbed his hand back and forth on Liu Ruoxi's abdomen for a long time, as if he was touching a rare treasure under the palm of his hand. It's not enough to rub it like that. Rong Chenghan simply pressed his cheek up.

"Auntie, we have a son." After a while, Rong Chenghan raised his head, and his two eyes were shining.

"yes." Liu Ruoxi nodded. She knew the news earlier than Rong Chenghan, but, "How can you confirm that it's a son, maybe a daughter?" ”

"It's all good." Rong Chenghan did not argue with Liu Ruoxi on this issue. Now. He didn't really think about the gender of the child at all, but was completely immersed in the surprise of becoming a father. However, Rong Chenghan is not a careless person. In some ways he was quite considerate. "It's good for a daughter, I also like to have a beautiful daughter like a sister."

Rong Chenghan is suing Liu Ruoxi, don't worry, he is happy to have children and daughters, it is best to have a few more. But Rong Chenghan only told Liu Ruoxi the first half of the sentence. As for the second half of the sentence, ...... this kind of thing has to be done slowly, and the second wife of Fang Cai told him that Liu Ruoxi was very nervous, and Rong Chenghan certainly didn't want to add pressure to Liu Ruoxi. As a young man who is about to become a new father, Rong Chenghan maintained his sanity in addition to surprises. Of course, he has always been quite a city man.

Rong Chenghan sat with Liu Ruoxi for a long time, and Liu Ruoxi's mood gradually relaxed.

"Ah Han," Liu Ruoxi suddenly asked Rong Chenghan, "If you had to choose between the title and our children, which one would you choose?" ”

"Huh?" Liu Ruoxi's question was too sudden, and Rong Chenghan didn't understand what Liu Ruoxi meant for a long time. "The title and our children, my title, of course, will be our son's in the future. Why should you choose, and what are the best options? ”

Rong Chenghan looked at Liu Ruoxi, even if he tried to hide it as much as possible, his eyes still showed a little worry. Liu Ruoxi was nervous because she asked such inexplicable words.

"I'm not talking about your current title." Liu Ruoxi guessed Rong Chenghan's thoughts, but there were some words, she had to ask, "If, I mean if, you will be awarded a higher title, but me, our children, are the obstacles to your canonization." At that time, what would you choose? ”

Liu Ruoxi stared at Rong Chenghan, even though she knew in her heart how ridiculous it would be for Rong Chenghan to ask such a question at this moment, but she had to ask.

"Oh......" Rong Chenghan looked at Liu Ruoxi thoughtfully, and the second wife of Liu not only told him that Liu Ruoxi was very nervous, but also quietly told him that as a new pregnant woman, Liu Ruoxi's love may be more excited than usual, and her thoughts are different from ordinary people, so let him be as understanding and tolerant as possible.

However, such an idea is too difficult for Rong Chenghan to understand.

"In addition to the founding fathers, there are great merits after that, and the highest knighthood is the hereditary marquis." Rong Chenghan explained the facts to Liu Ruoxi very rationally, and the title he has now awarded is already the highest. Liu Ruoxi's problem is not at all. Rong Chenghan believes that the most effective way to appease Liu Ruoxi's feelings and eliminate her inexplicable thoughts is to lay out the facts and reason.

But Liu Ruoxi was obviously not satisfied with Rong Chenghan's answer.

"I mean, if, just in case, you think about it before answering me." Liu Ruoxi insisted.

Rong Chenghan looked at Liu Ruoxi for a while, and a different color flashed in his eyes.

"Ahma. You will never be an obstacle for me. Neither will our children. Rong Chenghan held Liu Ruoxi's hand again, his eyes were firm and fiery, "I volunteered to go to Northern Xinjiang with my father at the age of thirteen, and I fought in the pile of dead people, not because I was keen on the title of meritorious knighthood. I just want to...... Prove myself. ”

Even if he doesn't have the palace as a backer, he doesn't have a foreign family like the Su family, and he is not the son of King Yongjing and the Su family, he can make contributions by himself.

"Of course, one of our brothers must go with our father at that time. The eldest brother is not in good health. He is the son of the world, and there is no room for loss. Second brother ......, only I go. Rong Chenghan's tone was calm, and his expression did not fluctuate, as if what he was saying was just ordinary words. But Liu Ruoxi is keenly aware that what Rong Chenghan is saying is very important.

Regarding Rong Chenghan's experience, Liu Ruoxi heard about it from all aspects, and after Rong Chenghan personally told her, she felt that she already knew a lot. But. There are also some things behind the truth/appearance, but the Chinese can't know, and Rong Chenghan also hides it intentionally or unintentionally. For example, what Rong Chenghan said now.

A new little life, though he couldn't yet perceive him. But this little life will connect him and Liu Ruoxi's bloodline. Because of this little life. Rong Chenghan felt that the two hearts of him and Liu Ruoxi were closer together, you have me, I have you. And some things that have been buried in the depths of his heart, he can finally say it and share it with Liu Ruoxi.

"The mother concubine dotes on the second brother. I am afraid that the second brother will lose his life if he goes to northern Xinjiang. The second brother was afraid of himself and begged in front of his mother. The concubine agreed to him. My father only had three sons, so I was the only one left. ”

"But you were still young at the time......

"It's not small." Rong Chenghan said, "When I arrived in Northern Xinjiang, I found that there were actually many people of my age in the military camp. "But those are the death of my father and brother, and there is really no way for the family to have children. Or an abandoned child who was thrown out of the family.

Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but feel upset for Rong Chenghan, and shook Rong Chenghan's hand hard.

Rong Chenghan felt Liu Ruoxi's affection, lowered his head and kissed Liu Ruoxi's hand gently.

"It's all over, I'm not coming back well." Rong Chenghan appeased Liu Ruoxi.

But ...... "There's a good chance you'll not come back." At that time, no one could guarantee that Rong Chenghan would come back alive.

"I can also go away, it's my own request." Rong Chenghan quietly told Liu Ruoji. "I know that the mother was also very difficult at that time. At that time, my father said that he would take his second brother with him. But the mother concubine protected the second brother, and the father was very dissatisfied with the mother concubine, saying that the mother concubine doted on the child. But if the second brother really went with his father, and there was something missing, I am afraid that some people would say that the mother concubine did not really love the second brother. ”

"Only you go, the mother's reputation is the most prosperous, isn't it?"

"She actually can't bear me," Rong Chenghan said, pausing slightly, "But I'm not the most important thing to her." ”

Liu Ruoxi sighed softly, pulled out a hand from Rong Chenghan's hand, wrapped it around Rong Chenghan's back with some effort, and patted it gently. Liu Ruoxi's action was more than the intimacy between husband and wife, but Rong Chenghan did not resist.

Rong Chenghan leaned down/leaned over, making it easier for Liu Ruoxi to hug, and gently imprinted a kiss on Liu Ruoxi's forehead.

"The mother concubine is the stepfamily, and it is said that the eldest brother's mother treated her very well during her lifetime. The mother swore in front of the eldest brother's mother that she would treat the eldest brother well. After I was born, people said that I was the most like my father. The eldest brother is not in good health, good at literature and martial arts, not only is he not keen on his career, but he is obsessed with pear orchards. The mother concubine was faintly worried that I would rob the eldest brother of his things. ”

However, now, Rong Chenghan has earned the title with his own skills. And it is obvious that after a hundred years of the old prince, only Rong Chenghan can support the glory of Yongjing Palace.

"The title is rich, I don't look at it." Rong Chenghan raised his head, his eyes were like stars in the dark night, "It's just that I won it, and I won't give it to others." Relying on his wife's nepotism to climb up, of course, there are things in the court, but I don't care about it. What's more, exchanging wives for riches. ”

Rong Chenghan's voice was loud.

What Liu Ruoxi and their children will become an obstacle for him, Rong Chenghan thinks this question is ridiculous. If there is really a higher title in front of him, and he can't get it, it is naturally because he is not capable enough, and it has something to do with his wife and children. That's just an excuse for incompetent people to excuse themselves.

"I'll be with you as much as I can." In the end, Rong Chenghan slowed down his tone and told Liu Ruoxi.

"Hmm." Liu Ruoxi nodded and didn't continue to ask. Yes, for Rong Chenghan, this is not a problem at all. For a long time, Liu Ruoxi only saw Rong Chenghan's others, but ignored the most important trait in Rong Chenghan's bones - pride.

If it weren't for the arrogance, Rong Chenghan would have stayed in the palace and enjoyed the glory and wealth as long as he played a trick, and he didn't need to go to northern Xinjiang to fight at all. If it weren't for Zheng Zheng Zheng's arrogance, after becoming famous, Rong Chenghan would no longer have to work hard to worship Liu Er as a teacher and re-study poetry and books.

This arrogant bone is Rong Chenghan's bottom line. He won't do anything that crosses his line. Moreover, she herself is no longer weak and weatherless. Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu are also alive and well, and she has a younger brother. The Liu family, parents, and brothers will all be her solid supporters.

Thinking like this, Fang Cai's worries and entanglements have slowly dissipated. Liu Ruoxi didn't expect the child to come so quickly, but since she came, she would accept it calmly. No matter what kind of bloody rain and turmoil lie ahead, she will definitely protect her precious things.

herself, the baby in her belly, and ...... Rong Chenghan.

After settling down, Liu Ruoxi felt tired, slowly closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep. In fact, in recent days, she has occasionally felt this way, but she didn't take it to heart and didn't think about it. Now that I think about it, it should be because of the baby in the womb.

Rong Chenghan saw that Liu Ruoxi was asleep, and kissed Liu Ruoxi is cheek affectionately, and then got up and went out. Mrs. Liu then came in, sat on Liu Ruoxi's couch for a while and walked out.

"This courtyard is really good, it was the princess who arranged for the Hou Ye to live in?"

"Mrs. Hui, it was arranged by the prince himself." (To be continued......)
