Chapter 294 Daily Pregnancy Care
Taozhi and Nanny Cui served the master attentively, and put away everything in the house that might make the master uncomfortable. Now, when a cup of ginseng tea suddenly appeared, Jing Wei knew what was going on without even thinking.
But he felt that it was not worth it at all. He was just a county magistrate, so why bother to see him?
But Jing Wei was very conscious of being a son-in-law. No matter big or small, he would always stick to Cui Qingyi's decision.
And in the process of quietly observing and implementing Cui Qingyi's decisions, he also learned a lot of new things.
Seeing Cui Qingyi rinsing her mouth and winking at him, Jing Wei was both angry and amused, but he cooperated very well and ordered her to leave.
When he looked cold, he was very intimidating, with an air of authority about him. "Wang County Magistrate, my wife is not feeling well, so I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain you well today."
After saying that, he didn't care about Wang Xiaoqian's reaction. Without asking the servants to help him, he held Cui Qingyi's arm and walked towards the backyard.
As a result, Wang Xiaoqian couldn't say anything even if he had more to say. He himself was not married and had never really seen how painful it was for a pregnant woman.
But before people even saw the Dongping Township Master, they noticed her oversized belly. Even Wang Xiaoqian, who was used to seeing corpses, felt frightened.
In Wang Xiaoqian's eyes, a woman who was originally bright, confident and outspoken suddenly changed her appearance and looked completely self-pitying. Wang Xiaoqian was somewhat unable to accept it.
Even if Cui Qingyi gave him a chance to speak at this moment, he was in no mood to do so.
After exiting the village head's residence and getting into the carriage, Wang Xiaoqian wiped the beads of sweat that had seeped out of his forehead and instructed his followers outside, "Have someone keep an eye on the village head's residence. If the village head has any problems, report them immediately."
The attendant was somewhat puzzled and failed to fully grasp what the county magistrate meant.
Cui Qingyi and Jing Wei probably could not have imagined how much of a shock they had given to the county magistrate Wang Xiaoqian today.
Wang Xiaoqian has met Jing Wei twice, but they have never had the chance to have an in-depth communication. So he has never been able to understand why Jing Wei looks like a good man, and the demeanor revealed in his words and deeds also shows that he has some background, but why would such a person choose to marry into the family? What is his purpose?
What was there in the village chief that was worth such a huge sacrifice?
Originally, Cui Qingyi had been running Luhua Town very successfully during this period, and Wang Xiaoqian had gradually forgotten about this matter. But when he saw Cui Qingyi and Jing Wei again today, especially Cui Qingyi's thin and exhausted appearance, the hidden worries in Wang Xiaoqian's heart came to the surface again.
Wang Xiaoqian thought to himself: "The Dongping Township Master has found a high-yield crop like potatoes for the Jin Dynasty. He is a meritorious official. If he is murdered by a malicious person, it would be a mistake for him, as the county magistrate, to fail to investigate."
Although the village chief's mansion is now occupied by an old doctor invited by Jing Wei, who is said to be a retired doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau, Doctor Lu, who was the first doctor to treat Cui Qingyi, still enters the mansion from time to time to take Cui Qingyi's pulse.
Although Doctor Lu is greedy for money, when it comes to being loyal to people when they pay him, Doctor Lu believes that he is second to none.
After taking the pulse that day, Doctor Lu saw that Cui Qingyi and Konjac were the only ones in the room. He whispered to Cui Qingyi about what he had been experiencing in the past few days: "Someone came to me to ask if your pregnancy was dangerous. I didn't say anything. You should be careful."
Anyone who suddenly heard such news would be shocked, and Cui Qingyi and Konjac were no exception. She immediately lowered her voice and asked, "Do you know who it is?"
Doctor Lu thought about it carefully and said, "I don't know him. He's a new face. You should be more careful."
Cui Qingyi was confused when she suddenly learned that someone was asking about her physical condition, but she kept calm and did not panic. She asked Konjac to give Doctor Lu more medical fees.
After waiting for them to leave, Konjac returned to Cui Qingyi and couldn't hide his worry: "Miss, besides the people in our house, who else would ask Doctor Lu about your pregnancy? Could it be someone from Linshui?"
Konjac guessed almost instinctively. After all, she and the girl had lived to this day, and the people who were most unwilling to see the girl doing well were probably the people in Linshui. As for the people in Luhua Town, Konjac felt that they would not have such courage.
Cui Qingyi rubbed her belly and told herself to calm down slowly. "No, the Yuan family is vicious but not very courageous. They can't make any waves outside the Cui Mansion. As for the Yuan family, they are busy with their own affairs and there is no way they would bother me.
The incident is most likely still in Dongping County, but don't be afraid or panic, we are all family here, nothing will happen."
Cui Qingyi was still somewhat confident about this. The people around her were either given by the palace or bought a few years ago, and they had no intention of harming her.
Wang Xiaoqian never thought that his actions would cause a disturbance in Cui Qingyi's peaceful pregnancy. After asking Dr. Lu, he privately found several midwives to inquire about women's pregnancies. In the end, he slowly convinced himself that pregnancy is hard for women, and it is even more unbearable if there is morning sickness, so everything he saw seemed very normal.
Cui Qingyi asked people to disguise themselves and guard Doctor Lu's clinic for many days, but no one went to ask Doctor Lu about her condition, so she didn't pay much attention to this.
Because Wangcai has become very irritable recently, he is not nice to anyone in the house except Cui Qingyi.
After observing for a few days, Cui Qingyi discovered that her dog Wangcai seemed to be pregnant.
Jing Wei asked Amu to come over and take a look to confirm that Wangcai was indeed pregnant. Wangcai now had the black wolf by her side, and she looked down on the dogs that were just like ordinary people, so there was no doubt who the baby was.
Amu carefully analyzed the reasons for Wangcai's bad temper with Cui Qingyi: "He's a wolf cub after all. Maybe he's a little overbearing and makes Wangcai feel uncomfortable?"
Cui Qingyi couldn't really talk to Wangcai and couldn't know the real reason, but she was always patient with Wangcai. Seeing that he was listless and couldn't eat, she simply asked Wangcai to stay with her. Wangcai would feel better when he saw her.
The baby is due in more than a month. Now Jing Wei always dreams of two little snakes, one black and one white, rolling around and fighting. He always feels very headache in his dreams. When he tries to coax one, the other one starts crying. As soon as he picks up the other one, it starts crying again.
He felt heartbroken whenever he saw either one crying. Every time he woke up from a dream, he would ask himself why he didn't just pick up both of them at once or just beat them up.
Was it a dream? There was no logic to it. After thinking about it, Jing Wei attributed it to the fact that he was looking forward to the birth of his child too much. As the saying goes, you dream at night what you think about during the day.
