Chapter 247 Production
Lin Xi stared at the person in front of him. Was he hallucinating in broad daylight? How could someone who was far away in the capital appear here?
"Xi'er?"
Xiao Yongyan smiled helplessly, touched Lin Xi's head, and looked down at her belly. He had been away for quite some time, and his child had grown so big.
Lin Xi came back to his senses only after he clearly felt Xiao Yongyan's presence. "You're back?"
Xiao Yongyan's tone was extremely gentle, "Yes, I'm back."
At that moment, Lin Xi thought that she would be filled with intense emotions, but nothing happened. Xiao Yongyan was still the same Xiao Yongyan, as if he had never left.
"Is the matter in the capital over?" Lin Xi felt strange. It has only been a few months. Could it be that what Xiao Yongyan wanted to do has been completed?
"It's all over." Xiao Yongyan said this lightly, but everyone present was confused.
"It will probably take a lot longer for the news to arrive now that the new emperor has ascended the throne," Xiao Yongyan said.
Aunt Chang, who was standing by, was shocked when she heard the news. "How could this happen so suddenly?"
She had lived in the inner palace for a long time and knew nothing about what was happening in the court. When she heard that the emperor had been changed, she felt weak all over.
The world was doing well, but suddenly the emperor changed. Something big must have happened behind the scenes.
Looking at Xiao Yongyan again now, there was a bit more fear in Nanny Chang's eyes. How could she forget that her son-in-law was the regent's biological son, who had been struggling in the power world since he was a child and had long been accustomed to all this.
Thinking back to when Xiao Yongyan suddenly went to the capital, could it be...
Although Nanny Chang has been unable to show her thoughts on her face for so many years, Xiao Yongyan is such a powerful person that he has been able to observe people's expressions very carefully. He comforted her, "The new emperor is kind and has issued a general amnesty as soon as he came to power. From now on, we will be ordinary people and will no longer have any guilt."
Lin Xi didn't react much to this. She felt that she was not living like a prisoner.
Only Nanny Chang burst into tears after hearing this. "That's great, Miss. If the Madam knew, she would definitely be happy."
Lin Xi watched Nanny Chang's tears streaming down her cheeks, and hurriedly comforted her, "Nanny, since you've already passed the exam, why are you still sad? Isn't this a good thing?"
Nanny Chang wiped her tears and nodded, "It's a good thing, it's a good thing. I shouldn't cry as an old woman."
Xiao Yongyan then said something that made Nanny Chang even happier, "Once the baby is born, we will prepare to return to the capital."
Nanny Chang quickly responded, "My son-in-law is right. It would be best if you can go back home after giving birth to the child."
After saying this, he had already started thinking about how to buy things.
Lin Xi frowned slightly, "You have nothing to do in Beijing?"
Xiao Yongyan said calmly, "As a teacher, what else can I do? Besides, the school in this county town hasn't been built yet."
Lin Xi pursed her lips and said nothing. She really didn't expect that Xiao Yongyan would be able to get there so smoothly this time. It was beyond her imagination.
"Since you have made up your mind, we will listen to you."
The couple smiled at each other.
With Xiao Yongyan's company, Lin Xi has been living a very comfortable life at home during this period. Xiao Yongyan takes care of all the big and small matters, so she doesn't have to worry about anything.
Xiao Yongyan's school has been built. It is more than three times the size of Songtao School. After the students of the original school moved to the new place, they all expressed their admiration for the huge scale of the new school.
Xiao Yongyan simply picked out a few good students and asked them to try the class.
Maybe they didn't know why, but Lin Xi understood that this was to pave the way for future trip to the capital.
The income from teaching in a school is much higher than that from studying. Some people who have passed the imperial examination are quite happy to do such a job.
As for Taoli Village, they are already familiar with various production methods, and Linxi's rice planting method has also been promoted. Even some neighboring villages have specially come to the village to learn.
Lin Xi generously stated that she would provide guidance to anyone who was willing to learn.
Of course, the specific guidance work is not done by Lin Xi himself.
Feng Miao did not disappoint Xiao Yongyan and the others, and soon became well-known across the country. The name of Madam Linglong was known to everyone.
But Madam Linglong's appearance has always been quite mysterious.
The production of silk quilts and silk rice paper is going quite smoothly. Zhang Chengye has been promoted by Lin Xi to be the general manager, and he is in charge of all matters inside and outside the house.
What is even more worth celebrating is that Zhang Chengye and Cui Hongyue got together, and they got married when Lin Xi was pregnant.
Lin Xi specially packed a big red envelope and asked Youlan to deliver it to someone.
Zhang Chengye and Cui Hongyue were both extremely surprised, but everyone around them was envious.
…
On a morning that couldn't be more ordinary, Lin Xi woke up in severe pain.
This period of time was the estimated due date of delivery. Lin Xi was shocked, thinking that the baby might be born now.
She quickly pushed Xiao Yongyan beside her, and Xiao Yongyan woke up in a daze and heard Lin Xi say, "I might be giving birth."
Xiao Yongyan was sobered up instantly by the shock and quickly looked at Lin Xi's face. Fortunately, he seemed to be stable.
"Mammy!" Xiao Yongyan shouted.
Nanny Chang was worried during this period, and she immediately rushed in from outside. Seeing Lin Xi's painful expression, there was nothing she didn't understand.
"Son-in-law, please get out quickly. I'll be here soon." Nanny Chang chased Xiao Yongyan out and shouted, "Midwife, my young lady is about to give birth! Youlan, go and boil some water! Xiao Chu, bring the clean gauze that I bought earlier!"
Everyone has a clear division of labor and everyone gets busy with their tasks.
The only person who was free was the child's biological father. Xiao Yongyan couldn't stand waiting outside, so he walked to the front and was about to go in, but was stopped by Nanny Chang, "The delivery room is a filthy place, you can't go in."
Xiao Yongyan refused to believe this, "I have been through the gates of hell, how can I be afraid of this?"
Nanny Chang was helpless and couldn't stop Xiao Yongyan at all.
After entering the house, Lin Xi was in good condition. She was not surprised to see Xiao Yongyan coming in. She just said, "If you saw a woman giving birth, you would not be able to eat."
Xiao Yongyan's face was full of heartache, "Even after all this, you still have the mind to joke."
Lin Xi said stubbornly, "It won't take long to give birth to all the children, so why can't we just joke about it?"
Before she could finish her words, she was hit by an even more intense pain, so severe that she couldn't even speak.
Xiao Yongyan was too anxious to think at this moment, "There is no way to stop the pain!"
Although the midwife had a lot of experience in delivering babies, she had never seen Xiao Yongyan care so much about a woman giving birth. "This is how all women give birth."
At this moment, Lin Xi suddenly missed the various medical facilities in modern society. It would be great if she could have an epidural.
