"I kind of miss Chan'er and Suisui."
Early in the morning, Shen Qingmang opened his eyes and uttered this sentence vaguely.
Gu Suihan had woken up long ago, but he had been lying with her in bed. Hearing this, he turned to look at her and asked, "What's wrong? Did you dream about them?"
"Yeah, I dreamed about some things that happened when we were emperors and empresses." Shen Qingmang touched his belly. "Those two naughty kids really gave me a hard time."
Chan'er and Suisui were twins born to Jiang Cenyun. Chan'er, whose full name was Jiang Yi, was a talkative little girl. Jiang Cenyun thought she was as noisy as a cicada, so he gave her this nickname. Suisui, whose full name was Jiang Shu'an, was born smaller than her sister and suffered from many illnesses in childhood. Li Xiwei named him Suisui, hoping that the child would be safe and happy.
Gu Suihan's face showed pity. "I still remember the pain you felt during childbirth. I wish I could have taken your place."
"It's not so bad. I think it might be easier than giving birth in modern times. The Great Zhou has accumulated many mature theories on pregnancy care and postpartum recovery. Hey, do you still remember them now?"
"Remember, what?" Gu Sui Han frowned.
Shen Qingmang said what he didn't want to hear. "How about we have a baby?"
"No." Gu Suihan rejected it immediately. "I don't want you to go through that kind of pain again."
"But I really miss them." Shen Qingmang rubbed his face. "I've always loved children. I never thought about having children before because being a teacher would allow me to interact with many children. But now they're all able to stand on their own, and I feel a sense of emptiness inside."
"Then why don't you take on a few more disciples, Madam?" Gu Suihan said, "Both Wuyin Peak and Wuwei Peak want you to teach their students. Si Rong probably has the same idea in mind, but he didn't dare to tell you because he was afraid you would find it difficult."
"That's fine, of course, but..." Shen Qingmang leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "I want a child that belongs to both of us."
Gu Suihan licked his lips. "Well... okay."
Shen Qingmang smiled and was about to sit up from the bed when he was suddenly pushed down by him.
She was a little confused, looking at Gu Suihan above her. "What's wrong? Isn't it over?"
"I promised my wife, and I should keep my word."
"Wait, there's no need to do it so soon... just last night..."
Shen Qingmang gradually became speechless.
The higher the cultivator's level, the more difficult it was to conceive. However, Shen Qingmang now had a new body, a pure spiritual body, so whatever he did was twice as effective with half the effort. Within three months, good news arrived from Qiongzhi Palace.
"What? I'm going to be a grandmother?" Si Rong looked at Shen Qingmang's belly, wanting to touch it but not daring to.
"What grandma?" The other three scolded her at the same time: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Why isn't she Grandma?" Si Rong raised his head. "Master is a generation younger than me now, so Master's baby is two generations younger than me. According to human rules, shouldn't we call her Grandma?"
Gu Suihan flicked her forehead. "Have you forgotten that there's me?"
Hao Xin said, "Big Brother is of the same generation as us. He is now the Sect Leader, and our Master is the Sect Leader's wife. Their status is higher than ours. If you say you want to be an aunt, it's not unreasonable."
Shen Qingmang touched her belly and said with a smile: "This is your brother or sister, you are not allowed to mention their seniority casually."
"No, how can the eldest brother's child be my brother or sister? If it really doesn't work, we can each go our separate ways. He calls me sister, and I call him nephew or niece."
"You just want to be the elder." Hao Xin exposed her.
Si Rong put his hands on his hips. "I'm already the Peak Master, can't I act like an elder?"
"If you keep arguing, I'll throw both of you out." Gu Sui said with a cold face.
Si Rong quickly shut up, but after a moment, he couldn't help but ask a string of questions: "How long will it take for the baby to be born? Is Master feeling well now? What preparations do I need? Do I need to go to the Qihuang Clan to get some medicine? Is Qiongzhi Palace suitable for rest? How about moving to Linyuan Palace?"
"I don't know how long it will take." Shen Qingmang said, "Normally, a pregnancy lasts ten months, but I don't know if it will be different for an Immaculate Spirit Body. I don't feel anything right now, and I don't need to take medicine. Hey, wait, I seem to feel something..."
The three people immediately asked nervously: "What does it feel like?"
"Gurgle." Shen Qingmang's stomach growled.
She blushed and said, "I'm hungry. I'm afraid I'll have to eat every day."
Hao Xin rolled up his sleeves. "What would you like to eat, Master? Leave it to me."
Gu Suihan said, "I'll go with you."
Hao Xin and Si Rong both had indescribable expressions. Shen Qingmang smiled and said, "Sui Han has recovered now, and his sense of taste is no different from that of an ordinary person. Let him try. Ah Xin, be patient and teach your senior brother. I really want to eat the food he cooks."
"good."
The two brothers went to the dining hall. Si Rong stayed beside Shen Qingmang, her eyes rolling around. Seeing this, Shen Qingmang took her hand and placed it on his belly.
"Touch it, but I can't feel anything right now. It's not even swollen."
"Indeed. It's still pretty good. How did Master find out that she was pregnant?" Si Rong asked curiously.
"A natural feeling." Shen Qingmang closed his eyes and said softly, "I can feel it in my womb. It's still like a tiny seed."
"Wow."
"Wait until it moves, and you'll find it fun to touch it again." Shen Qingmang smiled as he thought of the past. "When I was Jiang Cenyun, you, as Yao Yi, never dared to touch my belly."
"How can I touch your Majesty's precious body? If anything were to happen to him, my whole family would be in big trouble." Si Rong wiped his neck and laughed again. "But Master is different. Master treats me the best. Even if he has a baby, he won't neglect A Rong, right?"
