After Gu Xin recovered from a serious illness, she discovered that her whole family had changed.
Her father, who was a gambling addict and nearly sold his wife and daughter, said he would nev...
Cai Xiaolian was shocked; Li Shan was pregnant!
She remembered that Li Shan was a month younger than Gu Xin and wouldn't reach the age of marriage until next year.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, daughters of wealthy families could only get married when they reached the age of marriage. Did the Duke and Duchess of Rong really not treat their own daughter like human beings at all?
Li Shan is pregnant, which clearly means that the Rongguo Duke's family has sided with the Third Prince. Moreover, Li Shan was on good terms with Lu Zheng's stepmother, who is the Seventh Prince's aunt.
So, does Li Shan have no intention of easing tensions with the Lin family? Has she directly taken the opposite side?
Cai Xiaolian thought Li Shan was a bit stupid. Even if she was reborn and knew that the Third Prince would eventually ascend the throne, she was still young and could have maneuvered between the two sides. There was no need for her to stand on one side so directly!
She had previously thought that Li Shan was going to tell the Lin family that the Third Prince had taken a liking to her, but now things had completely fallen apart.
Is the capital in complete chaos?
The Empress Dowager and the Emperor have come to Kunzhou and don't plan to go back anytime soon. Do they know about this?
That evening, Cai Xiaolian read the letter. Madam Li didn't say anything, only congratulations and that she planned to go to the capital. The Li family's business in Qingzhou had been handed over to the eldest daughter.
While going to bed, Cai Xiaolian talked to Gu Shouxin about Li Shan's pregnancy.
Since arriving in Kunzhou, only two years have passed, and she has either been pregnant or giving birth. Although she has Xin Xin's jade beads, Gu Shouxin is worried that she is overworked, so he usually won't tell her about these things unless she asks.
When Cai Xiaolian asked, Gu Shouxin didn't hide anything and said directly, "She hasn't just fallen out with the Lin family. She's still doing what she did in her past life!"
Cai Xiaolian: "?"
Seeing Cai Xiaolian's bewildered expression, Gu Shouxin found it adorable, pinched her cheek, and then pulled her into his arms: "She's still acting as a spy for the Lin family by the Third Prince's side! Baiyi had previously sent word that Lu Zheng's stepmother, Lin Shi, felt she had been deceived by Li Shan, but after Li Shan's tearful complaints, Prime Minister Lin and Consort Lin also felt that a young girl was easy to control, so it was better to let her stay by the Third Prince's side. Anyway, the Third Prince seems to love her very much."
Cai Xiaolian slapped her forehead: "Look at my brain. People say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years. I've been pregnant twice in these two years, so does that mean I'll be stupid for six years? I still haven't figured this out."
"Hahahaha..." Gu Shouxin laughed loudly, "It would be better if my wife remained a fool for life! That way, I wouldn't worry that one day she would become so engrossed in her career that she would abandon me."
Cai Xiaolian punched him in the chest: "You're the idiot!"
Gu Shouxin took her hand and calmed himself down. He silently told himself not to be too beastly. Xiaolian had just finished her postpartum period. He couldn't do what he did last time. He would wait until more time had passed before thinking about these things.
Gu Shouxin felt that he was the unluckiest man in some respects, without exception.
He finally got a wife and they finally consummated their marriage, but then she got pregnant. He had only just experienced intimacy and wasn't even done with it yet. But what could he do? He couldn't hurt his wife!
So he waited and waited, until his wife gave birth and finished her postpartum confinement. He felt that his spring had finally arrived, and he could finally live the life of a normal man.
As a result, less than two months later, his wife got pregnant again.
He persevered for another year, enduring hardship.
Now he dares not do it so easily. He still has to listen to his wife, find out the exact time of her period, and then deduce the days when the chance of getting pregnant is low.
Gu Shouxin already had three sons and two daughters, which was enough for him. He didn't want his wife to risk her life to give birth again. He only wanted to spend his life with her and hoped that they would live to be a hundred years old so that they could make up for the more than thirty years that had not been theirs.
