He helped me back down on the stool, and his hands never left me, gently guarding my back to prevent me from falling again.

The two sisters of the Han family have always stood by our side.

Since we argued before, the faces of the two of them have not been very good-looking, and at this time, the faces of the two of them can be described as ugly, especially Han Ruoshi, whose pale face was almost tinged with iron, but her eyes were hotter than the flames, staring at me scorchingly.

Staring at my stomach.

I inadvertently raised my eyes, and when I met her gaze, I was startled.

Is it?

At this time, several maids had already invited Yao Lao, and they hurriedly walked in, as soon as Yao Lao entered the door, Pei Yuanxiu said: "Qingying was a little uncomfortable just now, you can help her take a look, isn't it-"

Yao Lao also glanced at him, and hurriedly walked up to me: "Girl, reach out." ”

My breathing couldn't help but sink a little, but I still slowly raised my hand, Pei Yuanxiu had already reached over to support the back of my hand, gently placed it on the table, and then looked at Yao Lao.

Yao Lao stretched out a few fingers and carefully buckled them on my veins.

At this time, not only me, but also all the people around me were suffocated.

In the huge hall, not even a sound could be heard, and I could even feel my own blood pulsating under his fingertips, and the sudden sound echoed through the hall, as if it were about to knock a man's ear.

I looked at Yao Lao with some nervousness.

But I saw his gray eyebrows frown slightly, and the next moment, I felt the fingertips on his wrists use a little force, and they tightened a little.

This time, Pei Yuanxiu seemed to be a little out of breath, and said softly: "How is it?" ”

Yao Lao frowned again for a while, and then slowly raised his head, looked at him, and then looked at me.

Pei Yuan cultivated: "Is she—"

"I'm just a little tired." Yao Lao opened his mouth lightly.

"Huh?" Pei Yuanxiu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "She's not—"

"Nope." Yao Lao shook his head, as if sighing softly, and then said, "Let her eat something and then go to rest." It's not a big deal. ”

Pei Yuanxiu seemed to be a little stunned, and Yao Lao had already slowly stood up, glanced at us, and turned to leave.

He came and went, so fast that I couldn't come back to my senses, and it took a while to slowly wake up, Pei Yuanxiu was still standing with me stretching out his hand, and the hand was holding my shoulder, trembling slightly.

I looked up at him.

He also looked down at me, and for a while, smiled faintly: "It's nothing." Obedient, you can eat something and go to rest. ”

I nodded, and was slowly seated upright.

As for the Han sisters standing beside us, although I never saw the expressions of the two of them from beginning to end, at this moment, I clearly felt that they all breathed a long sigh of relief.

At the end of this meal, it was inevitable that it tasted like chewing wax, but because of my body, I still reluctantly ate a few more bites.

When I got back to the inner courtyard, it was already dark.

As we walked along the path between the bamboo trees, only the faint light from the lanterns swaying gently in the wind in the distance shone through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, reflecting me and his face stained a faint red.

Feeling his rare silence along the way, I thought about it and said softly, "Do you think I'm pregnant?" ”

He turned his head to look at me and nodded, "Hmm." ”

“…… Disappointed you. ”

He immediately laughed: "Neither." Originally, we had only been married for more than half a year. ”

I smiled too.

"But," he added, "I wish we could have a son of our own." ”

I glanced up at him.

By this time we had reached the door, the red light of the lantern shining on his face, and even his eyes were slightly red, with a slow expectation and impulse, and I could even feel the slight force of his hand holding my arm.

Actually, this didn't surprise me.

After all, he is a man, and men always hope to have their own bloodline inheritance, which is completely different from a woman's idea of having children, and - I remember that when I was in Nian Baoyuze, when Li'er proposed to marry Liu Qinghan worried me, he once jokingly said that if it was a son, there was no need to worry so much.

It seems that he has been thinking about this in his heart.

By this time, he had pushed open the door, and the wind that poured into the room carried a little coolness, which made me shrink a little, and I crossed my arms and said softly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you." ”

He turned to look at me, but there was a faint smile on his face, and said, "What's there to be sorry about?" Besides, didn't I already say it, we've only been married for more than half a year. ”

“……”

"There are opportunities."

"W-"

I was about to ask, "What chance?" but before I could say anything, he reached out and closed the door, and the thud behind me made me shudder, and he picked me up.

I shivered from the heat of his hot palm, and he walked to the bed in two steps and laid me down.

The soft mattress was like a cloud pile, and as soon as I lay down, the whole person sank in.

His hand also sank deep into the mattress beside me, while his other hand reached for the neckline and vigorously ripped open the buckle there.

I heard a few snaps, those buttons collapsed, and a few fell on my body, and the next moment, I felt that it was dark in front of me, and Pei Yuanxiu's tall and hot body pressed down like a mountain.

……

I spent almost the night in flames.

Maybe it's because I haven't accepted him for too long, or maybe it's because of the surge of unfinished business left in his body in the bath, which made him toss almost sleeplessly all night, I only feel that the bones in my whole body are broken, and my limbs and five bodies don't look like my own, and it's hard to even move my fingers.

At this point, he leaned down and gently pecked me on the lip.

I looked at him a little blurred.

In his sight, he smiled contentedly and wantonly, and with one hand caressing my still somewhat trembling neck, he whispered, "You say, what will our son be like?" ”

Although I didn't have the strength anymore, I couldn't help but laugh.

"Would you say it would be like you or like me?"

“……”

"I wish he was like me, but best as smart as you."

“……”

"Have you ever wondered what the name of our son is?"

“……”

Listening to him mutter, as if he were speaking to me, as if he were talking to himself, it took me a while to finally gain a little strength, and then I said softly, "What if it's a daughter?" ”

“……”

This time, he froze, looked at me with wide eyes, and didn't react for a long time.

I smiled faintly in my heart.

Actually, it's no wonder that he is like this, after all, with his background like that of the royal family, and having been a prince for so many years, all he thinks about is that his son inherits his father's business, and naturally hopes to give birth to a son, as for his daughter, ordinary people will say that they are losing money, and if you look at the situation of the Han sisters today, you will know that naturally he will not want to have a daughter.

Thinking of this, I closed my eyes a little tiredly.

He was silent for a while, and didn't say anything more, only lightly imprinted a kiss on my forehead, and said softly, "You can sleep for a while." ”

"What about you?"

"It's almost dawn, I'm going to run errands."

“…… Well. ”

I didn't open my eyes, I just listened to him slowly get up, put on his clothes very lightly, and then pushed the door and walked out, and after a while, I was the only one left in the room with a quiet and long breath, and the sound of bamboo leaves rustling in the wind outside the window.

I gradually fell asleep.

Although I was very tired, I didn't sleep for long, and I couldn't sleep a little after the hour, and finally woke up slowly.

When I opened my eyes, it was still a hollow room.

After lying on the bed for a while, it was easy to accumulate some strength, slowly got up and put on clothes, and as soon as he went out, several maids who had been waiting outside for a long time came forward: "Madam, you are up." ”

I was a little embarrassed, after all, it was a bit unreasonable to get up so late, so I washed up with the hot water they sent, and while combing my hair, I asked, "Where's Childe?" ”

"Talk about things over there in the Cabinet."

"Oh."

I thought about it for a moment and asked again, "What about Miss Zitong?" ”

The maid glanced at me in the mirror, and the two maids behind her who were packing hot water towels also glanced at each other, and their eyes seemed to have a little smile, but they didn't show it, and only said respectfully: "Miss Zitong is also there." ”

"Oh."

"Madame, do you want to go over and have a look?"

I smiled, "No need. ”

The maid brushed my sideburns with a comb, and then smiled, "Madam, don't worry, Butu and they are all over there." ”

“……”

I looked in the mirror and looked at them as if they were smiling, and there was nothing to say for a moment.

Probably they have been working in the mansion for a long time, and they also know those things that are jealous and tearing their faces, so I am also worried about this.

However, to argue with them, it seems that he is a little family.

I looked at myself in the mirror, and there was nothing else but that I had not slept well and my face was a little pale, and I turned and stood up, and the maids were waiting beside me with their things, and said, "Do you have any other orders, Madame?" The son said, if the lady wants anything, just tell the slaves and maids. ”

I smiled and shook my head: "It's okay, I'll go see Li'er." ”

Instead of speaking immediately, they looked at each other.

I subconsciously frowned: "What's wrong?" ”

The maids looked at each other and paused for a while, and the maid who had combed my hair just now stepped forward and whispered, "Miss Li was going out early this morning, but Mrs. and Childe didn't get up, so—"

I immediately changed my complexion: "So what?!" ”
