The following day, while Wang Huaijing was procuring betrothal gifts, he visited the matchmaker's house.
The matchmaker was all smiles, saying a whole bunch of sweet nothings, as she explained that the betrothal would be arranged the next day.
They praised Wang Huaijing so much that he almost didn't recognize himself anymore.
"Is the person she's talking about really me? It seems like it's all the clients she's acted as matchmakers for."
Wang Huaijing shook his head, hoping to expel the water that the matchmaker had just poured into him.
The Wang family was in complete chaos, and even Madam Wang was almost conscripted. Wang Huaijing consulted Madam Wang on many issues related to the wedding.
"My nephew has too many problems. Is it really necessary? It's just getting a wife. Oh dear, my throat is about to burst into flames."
"My lord, pour me a glass of water, quickly."
After Wang Huaijing and his son left, Madam Wang felt like she was about to collapse from exhaustion.
Wang Guangzong smiled and shook his head.
"I just can't do anything with you. You were talking nonstop when you were talking just now. I thought you were really into talking about these things."
So it was all an act!
Madam Wang glared angrily at her husband.
How am I faking it?
If I don't explain things clearly, and something embarrassing happens later, it won't just be Huaijing who loses face, but you, his own uncle, too."
"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you for your hard work, Madam. You are the kindest of all. With such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?"
Wang Guangzong quickly flattered his wife.
But as soon as she got close, Madam Wang pushed her away, showing a look of disgust.
"Madam, what's wrong? Do you dislike me?" Wang Guangzong said, feeling hurt.
Madam Wang didn't know what was wrong with her. In the past, leaning on her husband's arms was the happiest time for her, but today she felt so smelly.
She was covered in sweat and smelled so bad it almost made her vomit.
Madam Wang looked at her husband and said...
"Husband, how many days has it been since you took a bath? You smell so bad, it's almost unbearable."
Hurry up and fetch some water to wash up, then change into clean clothes.
"Fine, I'm going back to my room. You'll sleep alone tonight starting now, so don't bother me with the smell."
After saying that, he got up and left without looking back, as if he were avoiding something dirty.
Wang Guangzong...
Little bok choy, turning yellow in the field, has lost its wife and mother...
Wang Guangzong raised his sleeve and smelled it.
"I changed into these clothes this morning, and I didn't sweat, so where did the smell come from?"
I showered last night, but not this morning. When did my wife become so clean?
Wang Guangzong went to take a bath, feeling lost and confused.
Back in her room, Madam Wang lay on the bed, feeling extremely agitated. She even felt the urge to scream to feel any relief.
Realizing this, she suddenly froze.
"What on earth is wrong with him? How could he be so out of control? Has he gone mad?"
Madam Wang's nervousness caused her to suddenly feel a stomachache.
She cried out in pain. Qiaoxing, who was waiting outside, rushed in upon hearing the noise.
"Quickly, sir! Sir, madam has a stomachache!"
Qiaoxing rushed out to find a doctor. Wang Guangzong, who had just sat in the bathtub, didn't even have time to put on his inner clothes. He just put on his outer clothes and went straight to the bedroom.
"Madam, Madam, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Guangzong was very anxious. While in pain, Madam Wang opened her eyes and saw her husband's disheveled appearance, and almost fainted.
She said in a trembling voice, "I just have a stomachache, my husband. Who are you trying to seduce?"
Wang Guangzong looked down and was startled by what he saw.
The outer garment clung tightly to her body, exposing most of her chest, with her nipples particularly prominent. Her thighs were faintly visible beneath the long garment.
In my haste, I was only wearing a pair of straw sandals, the kind I wore for bathing. They had no heels, and would be called slippers nowadays.
This incident alone was considered morally offensive in the Divine Dragon Kingdom.
After confirming that his wife was not in immediate danger, Wang Guangzong quickly opened the box containing clothes and dressed her properly.
Just as he was putting on the last shoe, Qiaoxing came in carrying the doctor's medicine box.
"Doctor, quick, this is my wife. She just said her stomach hurts."
The old doctor stroked his beard as he took the pulse, keeping his eyes closed and saying nothing. It was so intense it made you break out in a sweat.
"Yes, Madam is pregnant. It should be more than two months, almost three months."
Congratulations! It's been quite emotionally volatile during your pregnancy, so please try to stay calm and take good care of yourself.
Later, I prescribed medication to prevent miscarriage, and my wife was fine after taking it for two days.
Madam Wang has also lost her mind; Wang Guangzong's mouth is practically stretched to the back of his ears.
The little girl in the family is already five years old. For the past few years, Mrs. Wang has been trying to conceive again, but has not been able to.
I was overjoyed to suddenly discover that I was pregnant.
After seeing the doctor off, the couple held hands, as if giving each other strength.
"Madam is really careless. Has she not noticed that she has been pregnant for so long?" Wang Guangzong asked.
Madam Wang glared at him angrily.
"You're blaming me? Before you went to take the exam, I told you not to, that you needed to take care of yourself, but you acted like you were on drugs, pushing yourself to the limit."
After you left, I lived in constant fear.
With the earth churning up and roads being blocked, I had no time to think about anything else.
When you come back, there will be endless chores every day. How can I possibly have anything to do? It's all your fault.
Wang Guangzong, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."
Wang Guangzong was excited. The next day, he instructed Qiaoxing to take good care of his wife at home, and then got into the carriage and went with his nephew to present the betrothal gifts.
Wang Guangzong, who was usually calm and composed, had a strangely droopy mouth today, which made Wang Huaijing want to stay away from his uncle.
They were terrified that their uncle might suddenly transform into a giant tiger and eat them up.
"Uncle, what's wrong? Is there some good news?"
"From the moment you got on the bus, your mouth has been grinning from ear to ear. If you don't tone it down, it'll probably just be your bones holding it up."
Wang Guangzong slapped his nephew.
"You little rascal, can't you talk properly? Your uncle has some good news. Your aunt is pregnant, and I'm going to be a father again."
Wang Huaijing gave a curt "oh" and then fell silent.
"No, you could at least offer some blessings, even just a simple 'Congratulations' would be fine. Are you trying to find fault with me?"
Wang Guangzong was unhappy. He didn't hear the blessings and praise he wanted, so he was upset.
Wang Huaijing looked up at his uncle.
"Hey, what's the big deal? You've been a father twice already, so being one again will just be familiar."
Do I need to repeat my experience again? I'm not married yet, so I can't share parenting tips.
Wang Huaijing's innocent and harmless expression almost made Wang Guangzong faint with anger.
"Am I here to discuss parenting with you? I'm telling you, I'm going to be a dad again, and I want you to praise me, praise me."
