Ding Youtian came over and happened to hear Jian Ning say that she was pregnant outside the door. He picked up the words halfway through and didn't even bother to knock on the door. He rushed in and stared at Jian Ning with suspicion.
He hasn't even planted the seeds yet, so how can she be happy?
Ding Youtian didn't doubt Jian Ning, he was worried that Xiu Gu would be bullied, especially when he thought that Jian Ning had not let him touch her since she came through, he became even more suspicious.
Seeing that he looked very strange, Mei Niang was secretly surprised, but she couldn't say anything. She made an excuse to go downstairs to see if Li's mother had prepared breakfast, closed the door and left, leaving the space to the two of them.
"Are you sick?" As soon as Mei Niang left, Jian Ning lowered his voice and angrily fired back at him. He also lowered his voice, "Are you pregnant?"
Vomiting three liters of blood!
Jian Ning rubbed his forehead and said, "I don't know whether you are happy or not. I only know that I want to slap you to death right now! If you don't get out of my sight right now."
"Tell me, is it true?" He was not afraid of her threat and grabbed her right wrist. "Tell me the truth, I can bear it!"
If this happened in his own home, he would be dead.
What a bastard, he would be so brilliant as to commit suicide if you gave him some sunshine. Jane Ning narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her chin and stared at him, and found that his eyes were full of pain.
She was familiar with this look in his eyes; it was the same look he had when he learned Xiu Gu was gone. She didn't know why her heart softened.
"Are you stupid?" She took his hand and placed it on her lower abdomen. "Ask yourself."
Her belly is flat, and you can tell by touching it.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. It was a false alarm, but the hand was still not honest and wanted to get further. Jian Ning smiled, gritted his teeth, raised his foot, and stepped on his boot, causing him to jump around in pain, baring his teeth and walking in circles around the room.
Humph, you're just flirting with her and trying to mess up her mind so early in the morning. No way.
With a raised eyebrow, Jane Ning patted his butt and went downstairs arrogantly.
The Qin family's house was a busy one, with Mei Niang's dowry mother and a sewing maid, as well as a servant who did rough work. Old Qin and Blind Liu had gone to bed at some point yesterday, and they were still asleep. Qiao Feng and the other girls had only just woken up. When Jian Ning went to their room, Mei Niang and Qiao Feng were combing the children's hair.
"I'll do it. Don't tire you out." Jian Ning wanted to replace Mei Niang, but she refused. "I'm not that delicate. Do you think I'm going to die of exhaustion just by combing my hair?"
"Mom, do we have to get up early to practice tomorrow?" Sanniu asked.
"Go back and practice. You don't have to get up early these few days." Jian Ning pulled Sanniu over and took a look. Mei Niang had dressed her up as a boy. In fact, she just had a bun on her head and tied a hairband. She looked very playful and cute.
"It's really beautiful. Have you thanked Aunt Mei?" Jian Ning pinched her little face and smiled.
"Thank you, Sister Qiaofeng told me."
"Thank you, Aunt Mei." Erniu also had her hair styled in a bun. Her chin was a little pointed, so it suited her better than Sanniu's, making her look extra cute.
She looked in the mirror, ran to Jian Ning, and pushed Sanniu aside with her shoulder. "Mom, I just thanked Aunt Mei. Who is prettier, me or my sister?"
Seeing Sanniu's face tense for a moment, Jian Ning didn't treat Mei Niang as an outsider. She raised her hand and gently poked Erniu's forehead, "Mom thinks Yaoyao is pretty, don't cry. This is at Aunt Mei's house, and today is New Year's Eve. But if you make a mistake, not only on New Year's Eve, but also on New Year's Day."
"Do you know why mother said you don't?"
Erniu shook her head, then nodded, "I, I think I bumped into my sister."
Without waiting for Jian Ning to speak, Erniu, who was always quick to admit her mistakes, said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have hit my sister. I will change and apologize to my sister."
Seeing Erniu and Sanniu admit their mistakes, and then they hugged each other and jumped in circles again, Mei Niang said with a smile: "Oh, sister, you really know how to teach children. These two little guys are so adorable."
"The same goes for Ding Shu. This child is quiet and pretty, and she looks particularly likable." Mei Niang quickly added.
She herself was a concubine's daughter from a noble family, and she had many sisters. She knew very well how much harm it would cause to a child's heart if the elders praised one child and ignored another in front of the child.
"Let's go, sister will take you to wash up." Qiaofeng took the three of them to wash up. Jian Ning shook her head. If they were at home, the two little ones might have done it again.
"I really envy you. Don't worry about my sister laughing at me. I really hope that a year will pass by in one sleep. I wonder what my child will look like." Mei Niang stroked her belly, which was not yet showing, and suddenly raised an eyebrow and asked, "I noticed that your husband didn't look very good just now. Did you two not argue?"
Jian Ning pursed her lips and smiled, then stood up and whispered something to her. After listening, she smiled and glanced at Jian Ning, "Don't blame your husband for being anxious. Which man wouldn't be anxious about this? You did a good job. If it's a misunderstanding, you should solve it in time. If you keep sulking, the rift between husband and wife will only grow bigger, and eventually something bad will happen!"
Aunt Feng came and asked Mei Niang for advice.
Old Qin and Blind Liu chatted until who knows when, and now the two old men haven't even gotten up yet. Breakfast is ready, and she asked Mei Niang if she wanted to eat first, worried about the children being hungry. Mei Niang is the family's most protected person now. If she asked to eat first, Old Qin would wake up calmly and without causing any trouble.
But if Aunt Feng is right, no matter whether there are guests at home or not, if Old Qin gets up early and is in a good mood, then everything will be fine. But if he is in a bad mood, he will look sullen no matter whether there are guests at home or not.
After Aunt Feng left, Mei Niang explained the reason to Jian Ning, "If you don't know this, you might think that I, as a daughter-in-law, am frivolous. Even my mother-in-law has to look at my face. If this gets out, I'll be so embarrassed."
