Chapter 6 Pregnancy
A month later, the back garden of the General's Palace.
"Grandma, when are my brothers coming back? It's been a month since I've been back, and I haven't seen them come back, and I haven't heard any news..."Ling Xue asked as she helped the old lady walk on the garden path and pouted.
"Xue'er, your brother is guarding the border in Xicheng Town, I'm afraid they won't come back for a while, since your father and mother disappeared a year ago, Xifeng Kingdom has become even more rampant, your eldest brother and second brother were appointed as generals to guard the pass, and your third brother was also told to go in a hurry a month ago, I'm afraid it's a military emergency. Our Ling family has been protecting the Long Ao Country for generations, and as the male of the Ling family, he is usually not at home, and sometimes he can only come back once in three or five years. The old lady looked ahead and said with a sad face.
"Grandma, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so ignorant... Makes you sad..."Ling Xue said with some guilt as she looked at her sad grandmother.
"It's okay, it's not your fault" The old lady looked at Ling Xue and gently patted her hand comfortingly.
"Hmm... Grandmother... Grandma, I want to go out for a walk..."Ling Xue asked coquettishly as she looked at the open back door.
"Xue'er, you are a girl who has not left the cabinet, you can't just go out and show your face, if you want to buy items, just ask Xiaolan to go." The old lady said to Ling Xue seriously.
"Grandma, it's okay, I can dress up as a man, I'll just go shopping on the street, I just want to know if the streets of Longyao City are as lively as they say." Ling Xue said expectantly.
"Xue'er, it's not that grandma is difficult for you, it's unreasonable, you should have the appearance of a girl's house when you are a girl's family, if you feel bored, grandma teaches you to read and read, come... Come... Grandma takes you to the library. The old lady beckoned Ling Xue to follow, and said unhappily.
"Grandma......" Ling Xue cried out in disappointment and reluctantly followed.
Another month later, in the small courtyard of the Drifting Snow Pavilion.
"I'm so tired! I really want to sleep, I wonder why I've been so sleepy lately, and I can't seem to sleep enough. It must be because my grandmother forced me to read the "Women's Ring" and was tired," Ling Xue was lying on the Taishi chair under the magnolia tree and muttered, thinking of her grandmother's so-called teaching her to read and write, in fact, she was teaching her to read "The Female Ring", and her head was big.
"Miss, are you on the end of your menstrual period?" Xiaolan next to her asked remindedly.
"It's the moon?" Ling Xue, who didn't react, asked suspiciously.
"That's right! When the menstrual period arrives, that is, the average woman starts at the age of fifteen, and there will be Kwai Shui every month, and the young lady's illness is not healed before the menstrual affair is very sleepy, and in the past two months, the slave maid saw that the young lady was not abnormal, and thought that the young lady understood..."Xiaolan thought that Ling Xue did not understand and explained.
"Oh, I see, but no! Didn't come..."Ling Xue, who reacted, said negatively.
"What's wrong with that young lady?" Xiaolan asked with concern.
"Cher, what's wrong? Come... Doctor... Doctor, take a look at my grandson..."Ling Xue was just about to say that it was okay, but the old lady who came to the gate of the courtyard and heard 'uncomfortable' called the doctor anxiously.
"Grandma, I'm fine, I just feel a little tired, you don't need to call a doctor." Ling Xue explained to her grandmother, who was anxious to call a doctor for her at the gate of the hospital.
"Xue'er, if you're really fine, but you're not afraid of 10,000, just in case, grandma sees that you are not in good spirits these days, so she invited a doctor for you, since the doctor has already come, let him show you, so that I can rest assured, come... Doctor, take a look at my grandson," the old lady took Ling Xue's hand and said worriedly.
"It's... Old lady, young lady... Please sit down here... So that the old man can take the pulse," the doctor asked Ling Xue to sit at the stone table in the courtyard.
A quarter of an hour later, suspicion appeared on the doctor's face, and he stopped talking.
"What's wrong? Doctor? What exactly is the disease? The old lady asked worriedly when she saw the suspicion on the doctor's face.
"This—" The doctor looked at the subordinate next to him and stopped.
"Go down, all of you," said the old lady, and called out to the people beside her.
"Yes—" the people retreated.
"Doctor, what is wrong with me? It's going to be so mysterious. Ling Xue looked at the doctor's actions and said with a strange expression. She didn't dare to say that her medical skills were very good, but her body was still clear and she was not sick at all.
"Back to the old lady, the young lady's body is fine, but this pulse shows..."The doctor said hesitantly after seeing that the old lady had dismissed the next person.
"What are you showing..."The old lady was relieved when she heard the doctor say that it was okay, but when she saw the doctor hesitate, she became nervous again.
"The pulse shows that it is a happy pulse," the doctor said in one breath.
"Are you sure? Correct? When the old lady heard this, her face became suspicious, but she still asked the doctor in disbelief.
"The old man vouched for his life, absolutely yes," the doctor said with great certainty.
"What? Joy? You say I'm pregnant? Ling Xue was thundered and said in disbelief.
"Could it be..."Ling Xue suddenly remembered the scene when she had just traveled to this time and space, and she was not wearing clothes...... Immediately blushed, but no, that man was so badly injured, how could it be... Ling Xue was entangled, who is the child's father?
"Doctor, I've worked hard," said the old lady, who gave him a certain amount of silver.
"Thank you, old lady, old man understands, say goodbye" The doctor took the money, knowing that it was hush money and retreated.
"Xue'er, this matter is very important, grandma doesn't care whose child this is, she must not want it, she must beat him off, you have a good rest, I will arrange it." The old lady said ruthlessly, but at this time her face was unprecedentedly suspicious.
