"Little Demon, Little Demon, your wife, well, you might be pregnant. You need to go find your son-in-law right away."
As soon as Cen Xi stepped out, she ran into the little demon carrying a teapot, who grabbed her and started setting off firecrackers.
"Oh no! It's only been... only a little over a month, and you're already pregnant?"
The little demon cried out in surprise, then glanced at the room with a complicated expression.
"Why aren't you going to find your son-in-law? What's with all the surprise, you little brat?"
She's just pregnant, why does she have that expression?
"Oh, I'll go right away..."
Seeing that Xiao Yao had gone far away, Cen Xi went back into the house and helped Jun Xiao Qiao to bed.
"Is it too late for me to leave now? Cen Xi, you've ruined me. You have to take me away quickly, or I'll be stuck here in the Wen mansion."
Jun Xiaoqiao vomited for a while, and after calming down for a long time, she finally caught her breath and grabbed Cen Xi to ask.
"I advise you to give up. If you think you can run away, do you think I don't want to? Shen Jinchen has a special kind of attracting butterfly. As long as he uses that, even if you run to the ends of the earth, he can find you. So you should stop dreaming and just live your life with your husband. Don't you like him a lot? Are you going to give up this relationship just because you're afraid of snakes?"
Cen Xi scoffed dismissively, then told her how difficult it was to escape.
If it weren't so difficult, would she have ended up like this?
If she's having a hard time, why should Jun Xiaoqiao be doing well? Aren't the two of them, who are in the same boat, doing well together?
She thinks it's good; only when there's someone worse off than her can she feel psychologically balanced.
"Okay, then tell me how I can train that gentle dog to be... to be more docile."
Since she couldn't run, she had no choice but to go in the opposite direction.
"Unless you overcome your fear of snakes, you will always have something on him."
Cen Xi stared at Jun Xiaoqiao for a moment, then gave her advice in a methodical manner.
"But I'm scared of that thing. I even get goosebumps now. Cen Xi, aren't you giving me a hard time?"
Jun Xiaoqiao's hair stood on end whenever she thought of that slippery animal.
"What can we do? How about I find you a couple of books to teach you how to train snakes? Or you can have your maid catch a snake, make snake soup, and eat the snake meat and skin. Maybe if you eat enough of that, you won't be afraid anymore."
Cen Xi smiled and then gave Jun Xiaoqiao a bad idea.
"The eldest princess is indeed shrewd. It seems I'll have to have my second brother hide all his precious snakes. You all ate them, and he'll definitely come crying to me to settle the score."
Wen Qiheng and Shen Jinchen, dressed in blue and white respectively, stepped into the room one after the other.
Wen Qiheng happened to overhear Cen Xi giving his wife bad advice and couldn't help but chime in.
"Wen Qiyu?"
Cen Xi couldn't help but confirm the identity of the young master she had met in Shangyang City.
"Otherwise, Your Highness, my second brother loves raising snakes and is extremely prone to cheating. If you eat his snakes, your princess's residence will likely find it difficult to have peace from now on."
Wen Qiheng raised an eyebrow and explained with a gentle, refined smile.
“If our princess wants to eat it, Wen Qiyu has to send it to the princess’s residence even if she is unwilling. Wen Qiheng, you are worrying unnecessarily.”
Shen Jinchen glanced at Cen Xi with a smile, then looked at Wen Qiheng with a meaningful gaze.
"Prime Minister Shen is indeed domineering. I, Wen, am speechless. Well, it would be better to let my second brother establish his own residence in the future, otherwise I'm afraid he won't be able to protect his snake."
Wen Qiheng smiled gently, then gestured for Shen Jinchen to help take Jun Xiaoqiao's pulse.
As soon as Jun Xiaoqiao saw the two people enter, her face darkened, and she remained silent. Her eyes lingered on Wen Qiheng's face, as if she wanted to poke a hole through him with her eyes.
"Madam, please don't look at me like that. I'm just trying to fulfill my marital duties, aren't I?"
Wen Qiheng smiled provocatively, then stared intently at Jun Xiaoqiao's belly, as if he could see a flower bloom from it.
"She is indeed pregnant. Wen Qiheng, you're amazing. I have to admire you in this regard."
After taking his pulse, Shen Jinchen couldn't help but punch him.
"We have to thank the princess for all of this. If it weren't for the muscle-softening powder, it probably wouldn't have been so easy to achieve fruition."
Wen Qiheng smiled warmly, but only Cen Xi sensed a deeper meaning.
"It was nothing. I just couldn't bear to see you two, newlyweds, having a fight, so I lent a hand."
Cen Xi awkwardly touched her nose and looked at Wen Qiheng with a meaningful expression. Damn it, this man is really a lunatic. I've seen it for myself today.
"Princess, you have such a kind heart. I believe Xiao Qiao will remember you for the rest of her life. Old Shen, that's enough for today. Considering the happy occasion we have today, I will grant your request."
Wen Qiheng glanced at Cen Xi and smiled, then began to speak in riddles with Shen Jinchen.
He originally didn't want to agree to what Shen Jinchen asked, but because of the kindness of the previous generation, there were some things he had to do. He had no interest in politics, but unfortunately, the time wasn't right for him.
"Then I'll offer my congratulations now, Ah Xi, let's go."
Shen Jinchen glanced at Wen Qiheng, then walked to Cen Xi's side, took her hand, and left.
Cen Xi knew that there was no point in staying here any longer, so she left with Shen Jinchen without saying anything.
As for what will happen to Jun Xiaoqiao in the future? She can only wish her good luck.
After staying at the Wen residence for a while, Feng Qin, Shen Jinchen's number one lackey, was very shrewd. He had already arrived at the Wen residence in the carriage that was parked outside the palace. As soon as they came out, he welcomed them into the carriage.
