Chapter 164 The Angry Princess and the Rough General 19

Cha Jiu has been feeling a little tired lately and always sleeps in and gets up late in the morning.

So when this lady from the side branch, Shen Lu, came to visit, she had just had breakfast.

Shen Beizhan had gone to court and had not returned yet. Cha Jiu probably considered the relationship between him and Shen Lu and decided to give her some face by calling her great-aunt.

Cha Jiu actually vaguely guessed the purpose of Shen Lu's visit.

But she didn't chase him away.

Because such rude and disrespectful things should be done by Shen Beizhan after he leaves the court.

"Aunt, would you like to sit down and have something to eat?" Cha Jiu asked politely.

In fact, according to their status, even though Cha Jiu was younger, Shen Lu was not qualified to eat at the same table with her.

But the rice porridge tastes so delicious, and the delicate crystal cake looks so delicious that it melts in your mouth, making you salivate.

After Shen Lu pretended to refuse, she sat down impatiently.

Chenxiang served her a bowl of rouge rice porridge.

As soon as the sweet rice porridge enters your mouth, the fragrance lingers on your teeth and the aftertaste is endless.

Shen Lu ate one bowl and then had another, feeling that eating rice porridge in the past was like chewing wax.

As she ate, almost two-thirds of the food on the table went into Shen Lu's stomach.

Chenxiang became furious when he saw that his princess had not eaten much but all the plates on the table were empty.

Qingdai held her back and shook her head, signaling her not to be impulsive.

Cha Jiu had actually almost finished her meal, as her appetite had not been very good these days.

"I wonder what important matter my great aunt has brought to my house today?"

Although Cha Jiu had already guessed it, he still asked politely.

Shen Lu would definitely not tell the truth to Cha Jiu. She would just say that she came to see Shen Beizhan and so on.

Cha Jiu was too lazy to waste time talking to her, so she let Qing Dai lead her around the house, and she went back to her room to take a nap.

I feel very tired.

Shen Lu took a tour around the general's mansion and was envious of the carved beams and painted buildings, the corridors and the famous flowers.

This family is really rich.

She began to imagine the day when her children and grandchildren would live in this luxurious mansion.

While walking around, Shen Lu suddenly remembered the sweet rice porridge she had just eaten at the dinner table, so she asked Qingdai what kind of rice it was.

She wanted to ask her son to buy some for her son to eat after she got back.

Qingdai explained it to her again just as she had explained it to Shen Beizhan before.

Shen Lu was shocked when she heard this.

Such a Redmi costs thousands of dollars!

How extravagant

And the jade bowl that holds the rice porridge is probably worth a lot too.

Thinking of this, Shen Lu couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with the princess.

Because in her mind, Shen Beizhan's property will eventually fall into the hands of his descendants from side branches. If Cha Jiu squanders a penny now, her descendants will have one less penny in the future.

No, I must remind Shen Beizhan when he comes back.

Half an hour later, Shen Beizhan finally returned home.

When Shen Lu saw him, she put on a tearful and loving look and went up to him: "Beizhan..."

Shen Beizhan picked up the whip he had put down and looked at her with a frown: "Who are you?"

Shen Lu was choked and quickly explained her identity.

At the end, he added: "When you were little, I held you in my arms."

Shen Beizhan sneered and refused to accept the offer: "There are so many people who have hugged me. If you ask the military camp, there must be at least 8,000 of them."

He grew up in a military camp, and his relationship with those soldiers and uncles was closer than that with any messy side branches.

Shen Lu choked again.

But she still didn't give up.

For the sake of her descendants' wealth, she doesn't care about her shamelessness.

"Beizhan, I'm here this time because of you." Shen Lu said.

"You and the elders in your side branch have watched your father and you grow up. You have had a hard time these years and we feel very sorry for you. Now you are the only male left in the Shen family, and your health is...sigh."

"The glory that the Shen family's ancestors worked so hard to gain must eventually be inherited by someone. You and the princess must also have someone sensible and filial to serve you in the future. Your uncles and I have thought about it and think that it is better for you to choose a smart and clever one from the side branches..."

The more Shen Beizhan listened, the colder his eyes became.

He finally figured out that this old guy was sent by those distant relatives to covet his property.

He originally wanted to scold the man directly, but Chenxiang came hurriedly, with a look of surprise and joy on his face.

Shen Beizhan was worried about what happened to Cha Jiu, and asked anxiously: "What happened?"

Chen Xiang was panting but couldn't wait: "Your Highness has been feeling tired and unwell recently, so I just asked a doctor to see him. It turns out that it is, it is..."

Shen Beizhan was anxious: "What is it? Tell me quickly!"

Why is Chenxiang breathing so heavily when he talks?

Chenxiang continued: "It turns out that Her Highness is pregnant!"

Shen Beizhan: “!”

Shen Lu: “!!”

Shen Beizhan seemed not to have heard clearly, and stood there in a daze, and asked again: "Chenxiang, say it again."

Chen Xiang had no choice but to repeat: "Your Highness is pregnant!"

"Say it again, I didn't hear you."

Chenxiang: “…”

After repeating the same conversation four or five times, Chen Xiang saw that Shen Beizhan was still planning to ask, so he gritted his teeth and said, "General, I'm sorry!"

After that, she stepped hard on Shen Beizhan's shoes and shouted, "General, Her Highness is pregnant! This is not a dream!"

The pain accompanied by the deafening sound of agarwood stimulated Shen Beizhan.

Instead of getting angry, he gradually became excited.

The joy in his heart was like a spring sprout, breaking through the hard soil and growing upwards desperately.

Shen Lu wanted to say something else.

But Shen Beizhan had no time to pay attention to her and went straight to Cha Jiu's room.

…

After congratulating Cha Jiu, the doctor began to explain in detail some things that should be paid attention to during pregnancy.

Shen Beizhan walked in quickly with an expression of incredible joy on his face.

"I'm going to be a father." He looked at Cha Jiu impatiently.

Cha Jiu smiled: "Well, you are going to be a father."

"I'm going to be a father!" He excitedly held the doctor's shoulders again.

"..." Doctor: "Yes, congratulations to General Shen."

Shen Beizhan let him go, then came to Cha Jiu, but hesitated and did not dare to touch her.

He was afraid that he, a big and rough man, would be too strong and move roughly, and might damage the teapot.

Cha Jiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm just pregnant, I haven't turned into porcelain, I'm not that fragile."

Shen Beizhan could only hold her hand gently and rub it back and forth on his face.

"It's great, it's great." he sighed.

The Shen family is used to this doctor, and he is familiar with Shen Beizhan's physical condition.

At that time, Shen Beizhan was hit by a fatal poison arrow on the battlefield. Although he was saved by a rejuvenating pill from a miracle doctor, he suffered damage to his offspring.

After these years of conditioning, some of the toxins in Shen Beizhan's body have been cleared, and having children is not necessarily hopeless, but he still has to wait for the right person.

It seems that Princess Chenghui is the general's destined person.

The doctor sighed and told Shen Beizhan what he had said.

After Shen Beizhan heard this, he held Cha Jiu's hand and said happily, "Ayuan, we are a match made in heaven."

Cha Jiu was infected by his happiness, and her face was full of smiles: "You have to think carefully about the name."

Shen Beizhan couldn't lower his smile at all: "This is not that simple. If it's a son, he'll be named Shen Huguo, Shen Zhenjiang, Shen Weimin, etc. If it's a daughter, she'll be named Shen Jinguo, Shen Hongxuan..."
