Chapter 167 How about having a baby?
After the Fu family's elders finished their meal, they went to the living room together.
Mr. Fu checked the time, stood up, and said, "It's getting late. I have to go back and take my medicine. Zhengzheng, take care of your injuries. Don't worry about anything else. Your health is what's important."
Mrs. Fu also stood up and gently patted the back of Yun Zheng's hand, saying softly, "Zheng Zheng, if there's anything you need, just let Ling He do it. Don't be reluctant to use him. He chose to marry you and is ready to be your servant. When your foot is healed, I'll take you out shopping."
Yun Zheng looked up at Fu Linghe and nodded slightly.
Shen Lanshu and Fu Yanze also stood up. Before leaving, Shen Lanshu did not forget to remind Fu Linghe, "Linghe, you have to spend more time with Zhengzheng. Don't let her be bored alone."
Fu Linghe nodded in agreement, his tone calm, "Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of her."
When Yun Zheng was not injured, he was reluctant to leave her alone at home. Now that she was injured, Fu Linghe was even more reluctant to leave her alone at home.
After the elders said goodbye one by one, Yun Zheng and Fu Linghe insisted on seeing them off to the door and only returned to the living room after watching them leave.
The entire Tanxi Garden suddenly became quiet.
Fu Linghe and Yun Zheng were the only ones left in the huge living room, and the originally lively atmosphere suddenly became much quieter.
Yun Zheng sat on the sofa, looking down at her toes, feeling a little depressed.
Fu Linghe noticed something was wrong with her, walked over to sit beside her, nervously reached out his hand to feel the temperature on her forehead, and whispered, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yun Zheng looked at Fu Linghe, sighed, and shook her head. Her voice was a little muffled. "I'm not uncomfortable, I just feel... Tanxi Garden is too big. Apart from the servants who take care of us, there are only the two of us. It feels a bit deserted."
Upon hearing this, Fu Linghe raised his eyebrows slightly, and a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes.
His slender fingers gently stroked his chin, his eyes fell on Yun Zheng's slightly lost little face, and a subtle curve appeared at the corner of his lips.
He slowly put his arm around her shoulders and tapped her shoulders lightly with his fingertips. The action seemed casual, but it carried an irresistible force.
Fu Linghe leaned forward slightly, his thin lips close to her ear, his warm breath spraying on her earlobe, his voice low and bewitching, "I do have a way to make Tanxi Garden lively, but I wonder if Madam is willing to agree?"
Yun Zheng was a little flustered by his sudden approach, and her ears turned slightly red.
She raised her head, her clear eyes filled with innocence and curiosity as she looked at him. "What's the solution? Do you mean getting a pet? A cat or a dog?"
Fu Linghe looked at her defenseless appearance, and the smile in his eyes deepened a little.
He deliberately dragged out the last word, his voice lazily and playfully, "Raising a pet... isn't a bad idea."
As he spoke, his fingertips gently slid across her earlobe, his movements ambiguous and gentle, "But I think there is a better way."
Yun Zheng trembled slightly at the touch of his fingertips and subconsciously shrank back, her voice filled with uncertainty, "A better way? What is it?"
Fu Linghe chuckled, a sly glint in his eyes.
He stepped back a little, staring at her intently, his tone carrying some meaning, "Madam, do you think Tanxi Garden would be more lively if there was another young master?"
Yun Zheng was stunned for a moment, then realized what he meant, and her cheeks turned red instantly.
She pushed him away violently and stammered, "What nonsense are you talking about! Who wants to... that..."
Fu Linghe was pushed away by her, but he was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled even more happily.
He supported himself on the back of the sofa with one hand, leaned forward slightly, and trapped her between him and the sofa. His voice was low and full of temptation. "Why, Madam, you don't want to? I am serious."
Yun Zheng was forced into a corner with nowhere to hide, so she could only put her hand against his chest, trying to create some distance.
Her face was as red as a ripe apple, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, "Don't get so close... How can you do something like this so casually..."
Fu Linghe looked at her panic, and the smile in his eyes became more intense.
He reached out and pinched her cheek, his tone teasing, "How can this be so casual? We are a legal couple, isn't having a child the most normal thing?"
Yun Zheng was embarrassed and annoyed by his teasing, and reached out to push him away, "S-Stop talking nonsense... I-I'm not ready yet..."
Seeing that she was so flustered that she couldn't even speak clearly, Fu Linghe finally stopped teasing her. He sighed softly, reached out and rubbed her hair, and said gently: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. But, Zhengzheng, I'm serious. If you think Tanxiyuan is too deserted, we can consider making it more lively."
Yun Zheng lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously twisting the corners of her clothes, and said in a low voice, "I, I know you are serious... But, things like this... need to be done slowly..."
Fu Linghe chuckled, his tone filled with a hint of doting, "Okay, take your time. I won't force you. When you're ready, we'll talk."
Yun Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at him, her face still slightly flushed. "Don't keep saying things like that. I'll be embarrassed..."
Fu Linghe reached out and took her into his arms. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently. His voice was low and gentle: "Okay, I won't say it anymore. But, Zhengzheng, you have to promise me that you won't always feel that Tanxiyuan is deserted. With me here, this will always be your home."
Yun Zheng leaned in his arms, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.
She nodded slightly, her voice soft, "Yeah, I know."
Fu Linghe looked down at her, his eyes full of tenderness and doting, but the sly smile that flashed across his face revealed his dark side.
He pinched her cheek gently, his tone teasing, "However, if Madam changes your mind one day, remember to tell me the first time so that I can prepare."
Yun Zheng was embarrassed and annoyed by his teasing, and reached out to hit him: "Stop talking!"
Fu Linghe chuckled softly and hugged her tighter, the smile in his eyes becoming more intense.
He knew that although his young wife was shy, she would one day understand his feelings.
And he had the patience to wait for her.
The two of them sat hugging each other. Although the living room was still quiet, it no longer seemed deserted.
Fu Linghe looked down at Yun Zheng in his arms, his eyes full of tenderness.
He knew that no matter how big Tanxi Garden was or how deserted it was, it would be warm as long as she was there.
