At the end of autumn, the imperial city was bustling twice.

One is that on the day when the young master of the Su family and the young lady of the Xue family got married, the red silk was full of joy and excitement on the street.

The second is that the young master of the Zhou family and the young lady of the Su family got married, and their lively scene did not lose to the Su family at all.

Everyone knows that the three most famous wealthy businessmen in the imperial city have become a family now.

Today's saint is obviously happy to hear it, not only did he send people to send congratulatory gifts when the two families got married, but he also promoted Su Yi and Zhou Zhiping to serve the imperial court successively.

In a blink of an eye, because there have been many happy events in the family recently, the Zhou family, the Xue family and the Su family have expressed that they want to have an auspicious year.

At the end of the year, it was really lively, and there was joy everywhere, so that in a blink of an eye, it was January, and there were conspicuous red lanterns hanging on the street, and the strong smell of the New Year had not dispersed.

But some rejoice, others sorrow.

Zhou Zhiping came out of Helan Room with a frown, holding the chicken soup that had not moved at all.

Zhou's opinion of Helan has changed a lot during this time, and he has begun to really accept this daughter-in-law in his heart, which is not cold, especially Helan has always said that she has no appetite to eat recently, Zhou's is worried that she is hungry, and always thinks about going down to the kitchen to make some food for her.

"What, she still can't eat?" Zhou came over from afar, looked at his son standing in front of the door and sighed, and then looked at the chicken soup that was already cold, and frowned. "It's not okay to go on like this, you go and ask the doctor to take a look, don't rely on her this time, always say it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, you can't even drink the soup now, it's okay?" Zhou took the soup bowl and held it himself, urging Zhou Zhiping to hurry up and ask for a doctor.

Zhou Zhiping suddenly asked: "Mother, I just saw Helan vomit, did you say she was suffering from any disease?" ”

Zhou was about to leave, but when he heard what he said, he hurriedly turned around and asked, "Spit up?" When? ”

"I just went in with chicken soup, and as soon as she smelled it, she said she couldn't stand it, and then she threw up." Zhou Zhiping touched his head, "Otherwise, don't make chicken soup for her next time, it will make her uncomfortable." ”

Zhou pondered in his heart, how could he not smell the broth when he was so dignified? Isn't it...... No, she had to look at it to know what she knew. Thinking so, Zhou stuffed the soup bowl into Zhou Zhiping's hand, and urged in his mouth: "Go and ask the doctor to come!" Don't bother, I'll go see Helan. ”

In fact, Helan said that she vomited, but she didn't vomit anything, but she always felt that there was a smell in the room, so she couldn't stand it, so she called the little maid to clean it inside and out, and open the window to let in the air. The little maid had just finished cleaning, thinking that the wind had been permeable for a long time, and the smell should be dispersed, so she asked Helan if she wanted to close the window, just as Zhou pushed the door in, and saw the half-open window, and immediately frowned.

Zhou said: "The weather is strangely cold, even if there is a charcoal pot burning in the house, you can't open the window in the house, and if you turn around and get cold, you are the one who suffers." ”

As soon as the little maid heard this, she hurriedly closed the window, and when she saw that Zhou had gone over to talk to Helan, she retreated.

"I heard Ping'er say, you haven't eaten well these days, are you not feeling well?" Zhou sat on the edge of the bed and said with concern.

Helan was half lying on the bed, and just wanted to reply, when she suddenly smelled the fragrance on Zhou's body, her little face turned white, and she quickly took a handkerchief to cover her mouth and wanted to vomit.

Zhou was startled and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?" How can you vomit and vomit properly? "I secretly said in my heart, isn't it really the same as she guessed, Helan has it?

Zhou Zhiping hurriedly came in with the doctor, and Zhou hurriedly made way to let the doctor take the pulse.

Helan's face was really not very good, Zhou Zhiping stood aside, he was so anxious, but he didn't dare to ask the doctor what was wrong with her, so he had to stand with his mother and wait.

Fortunately, the doctor didn't let them wait too long, and after a while, the doctor withdrew his hand with a smile and arched his hand to Zhou Zhiping and Zhou: "Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to the young master Zhou, the young lady is happy, according to the pulse, it has been three months." As for this vomiting phenomenon, it is normal, and when the old man prescribes a prescription for fetal health and recuperation, he will take it three times a day, and there will be no major problem. ”

Zhou and Zhou Zhiping were both stunned, or Zhou reacted first, then smiled, thanked the doctor, and personally took a bag of silver, and ordered the little maid to send the doctor out, then hurriedly looked at Helan again, and said angrily: "It's really the same as I guessed!" You stupid girl, why didn't you say it earlier? ”

It was only at this time that Zhou Zhiping, who had become a father, suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Helan in a daze, and asked like a fool: "So, I became a father?" I have a baby? ”

Helan also looked incredible, touched her flat belly, and said to herself in surprise: "So amazing? I have a baby here? After speaking, he looked at Zhou innocently and explained, "I don't know, mother, if I knew, I would have told you a long time ago." ”

Zhou was a little helpless, and he didn't want to blame Helan, so he had to glare at his stupid son: "What about you!" is such a big person, and you will be a father, and you won't notice it? ”

Zhou Zhiping was happy and blamed himself, and said with a guilty face: "It's all my fault, I'm too careless, I thought Helan was sick, and I didn't think of going to ...... that aspect at all."

Yes, one or two, they are all unreliable.

Zhou was helpless, and when he saw Zhou Zhiping still standing there stupidly, he couldn't help but say angrily: "What are you still standing stupidly for?" Didn't you see your daughter-in-law uncomfortable? Why don't you grab the medicine yet? Go to the treasury and take a look, don't put those ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum or something, bring everything you can to make up for your daughter-in-law! ”

Zhou Zhiping listened to the order and hurriedly ran out to do it.

Only then did Zhou turn his head and whisper softly to Helan: "Your baby is the first child of our Zhou family, whether it is a grandson or a granddaughter, your father and I like it, for now, you should take care of your body, don't think about anything else." If that stinky boy dares to mess with you, just tell me! And then there's ......"

"Mother, if you have anything to say, just say it." Helan knew that Zhou was concerned about her.

"Our delicious food and drink, as long as you want it, it will naturally be provided to you first. But you listen to your mother's words, you feel better on weekdays, you still have to go down to the ground and walk around more, so that when the time comes, you don't have to suffer such a big crime, right? Zhou said, quietly looking at Helan's face.

Helan was stunned for a moment, and when she reacted, she couldn't help but be a little moved-Zhou's really treated her as if she were her own daughter, otherwise she wouldn't have said these heart-wrenching words to her.

"Mother, I know your intentions, don't worry, I remember." Helan looked moved and took Zhou's hand.

Zhou Shi breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his hard work had not been misunderstood, the smile on his face was a little more, he patted Helan's hand lightly, and said a few more words, seeing that Helan was a little tired, he called a solid and reliable Howling to guard, and he went out happily.

So Helan took a nap, and the Xue family and the Su family knew that she was pregnant.

Xue Yirou dragged Liangyue to congratulate her, and as soon as she entered the door, she shouted that she wanted to be happy.

Liang Yuebai glanced at her: "You are a big girl's family, what kind of joy do you have, don't talk nonsense." ”

Xue Yirou smiled disapprovingly: "Naturally, I will give you a little joy, and I will give you the share I have received." ”

The two of them laughed and entered Helan's yard, and it happened that Helan had just woken up, and said that she was hungry and was eating, when she heard the laughter of the two of them, she asked the little maid to add two more pairs of chopsticks, and the three of them happily ate a meal together.

Xue Yirou listened to the two of them talking about making clothes and shoes for children, and after a while, she felt bored, and she couldn't interject, even if she couldn't talk together, Xue Yirou sighed and felt very depressed, so she had to go first.

The days passed without a hurry, Su Yi, a busy man, finally came back at noon on a snowy day, as soon as he entered the house, he suddenly felt his eyelids jump heavily, and at this moment, the housekeeper ran out, looking anxious with burning eyebrows, Su Yi stopped him, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

The housekeeper fixed his eyes, slapped his thigh and said hurriedly: "Oops! My eldest young master! You're finally back! Young lady, she, she, she, she just fainted! Isn't it a small one to hurry up and ask a doctor to come! Master, go and take a look! ”

"What?!" Su Yi was startled, and he didn't care about the slippery road, so he was about to run to his yard, ran a few steps, and hurriedly turned back, while telling the housekeeper to take care of the young lady, he ran out and led the horse to ask the doctor.

When Su Yi and the doctor came in, Liang Yue had already woken up, and was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, hearing Su Yi's voice, as soon as Liang Yue opened her eyes, the whole person fell into a somewhat cool embrace.

"You're back." Liang Yue also stretched out her hand to hug him, and as soon as the words came out, her eyes turned red. "Do you still know that you're done when you're back?"

Su Yi hugged her and was reluctant to let go, and said in a muffled voice: "Well, I want you to come back." ”

At this time, the head of the Su family also rushed over when he heard the news, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but say angrily: "You stinky boy still know to come back!" I can't take care of my daughter-in-law and children! Why don't you get up and let the doctor take a look?! ”

The conscience of heaven and earth, the head of the Su family said in his heart, he is a dutiful father, he is not less than a little who should take care of Liangyue, why did he suddenly faint so well? If there is a good one, go back and let Liang Yue's old man know about it, and then she has to split herself alive?

At this time, the doctor went over to check Liangyue's pulse, and after a while, the doctor smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations, the young lady is happy, judging by the pulse, she is already two months pregnant." However, the young lady was a little worried, which would lead to fainting. As long as you take care of yourself and don't overwork, you'll be fine. ”

"Please also ask the doctor to prescribe some prescriptions, Qingzhu, so that you can send the doctor." Su Yi called a small servant outside the door, and he sat on the edge of the bed to guard his daughter-in-law.

When the head of the Su family heard that Liang Yue was now pregnant, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, personally thanked the doctor, and took a lot of silver and stuffed it to the doctor, which allowed Qingzhu to send the doctor out.

"Since you're back, let's stay at home for a while, I'll tell you if there's anything urgent when I go back, I'll help you deal with those trivial matters first, and you can stay at home with peace of mind." The Su family said.

After listening to this, Su Yi nodded, and smiled at his father rarely: "Then it's hard father." ”

The head of the Su family said that he was frightened, but he still pretended to be calm and went out.

Seeing that Su Yi was still frowning, Liang Yue knew that he must be blaming himself, so she obediently leaned into his arms and comforted him: "I haven't said anything yet, you feel distressed first, you see I'm not fine, okay, look, don't frown, it's not good-looking." ”

Su Yi covered a lot of emotions in his heart, hugged her and said slowly: "Okay, I won't frown, I'll just hold you, okay?" ”

Liang Yue sensed that his mood was wrong, so she asked tentatively, "What's wrong with you?" Why do you look preoccupied in the face of great good things? ”

Su Yi sighed inaudibly, "I'm just distressed, my Yue'er is still a child herself, but for me, she became a mother, it's not good for me to make you suffer." ”

Liang Yue was happy when she heard it: "What, look at you, you are not too old next year, why do you look like an old man every day?" Besides, I'm not a child anymore, look at Helan, she's still older than me. ”

Su Yi hugged her harder, as if only by hugging her tightly, he could feel a little more at ease. "Yue'er, do you like children?"

"Huh?" Although Liang Yue didn't understand why he suddenly asked like this, she still told him what was in her heart. "To be honest, I don't like children, but I don't know why, I just heard the doctor say that I have a little guy in my belly, only two months old, and the feeling in my heart is different all of a sudden, as if now, all of a sudden, I have a responsibility and mission as a mother. Especially thinking that this child is me and yours, Su Yi, I am very happy now, even happier than when I married you. Can you understand? ”

Su Yi kissed her face and responded with a smile: "Although I can't empathize, I know, you are very happy, I am also very happy, and now I have another person I love, it's good." ”

Liang Yue closed his eyes in his arms contentedly, and the corners of his mouth curled, "Well, our family is happy." ”

The two of them didn't speak again until Su Yi lowered his head and found that Liang Yue had fallen asleep in his arms.

Gently lay the person in his arms on the couch and covered her with the quilt, Su Yi was still sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the sleeping Liang Yue with unblinking eyes, his eyes were full of tenderness, but his heart was entangled in every way.

Liangyue actually had his child......

Yue'er, whom he loved deeply, gave birth to a new life for him, belonging to him, belonging to the two of them, a complete and real little life.

Su Yi gently held Liang Yue's hand, and the old man's words seemed to sound in his ears again, and after a long time, the look of struggle and pain in his eyes disappeared, replaced by resoluteness and gentleness.

"Yue'er, believe me, I will protect you thoroughly......" Su Yi dropped a kiss on her hand, as if she had sworn an oath, and said this softly, even if she was already asleep, she couldn't hear it at all.

But he himself knows that from this day on, the responsibility on his shoulders is not only to be a good husband, nor just to be a good father, but to become an outlaw who wants to gamble with all his life and even his life to protect his wife and children.
