Chapter 680 Daya is pregnant
"But I also want to do my best." San Ya said solemnly, "I want to ask the Queen to allow me to recruit female soldiers in the northwest."
When Liu Jian heard this, a look of reluctance appeared on his face.
"Sister, isn't being a soldier a bit too hard?"
He felt that this kind of thing should be done by a man with thick skin and strong muscles.
"Status is not given by others, but earned through your own sweat and blood. Otherwise, you can only shed tears."
Don’t think that women are weak and afraid of sacrifice.
Ask those women who are trapped at home and have nowhere else to go, are they willing to join the army?
The answer is mostly yes.
"Then I'll make note of this." Liu Jian nodded.
In fact, if he had not experienced the lotus incident, he might not have had such a profound understanding.
Just as Lu Qiniang said, she knew that life was not easy for countless women around her.
But when I really saw the miserable state of the lotus, I realized that reality was more cruel than I had imagined.
"Sister, even if I can't do it now, I will try my best in the future."
Liu Jian also made up his mind that he must take his younger brother to experience the suffering of the lower-class people in the future.
It's not just women who have a hard time, it's not easy for men either. It's hard to live.
Ensuring that these lower-class people can live and work in peace and contentment is the most solid support for a prosperous era.
At the same time, in the inner courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion.
Although everyone was back, no one was sleepy.
Lu Qiniang felt guilty.
"It's all my fault... If I had known about Sister Hehua's situation earlier, if I had been able to get her out sooner... maybe she could have enjoyed a few more days of happiness..."
Erya said, "Mother, please don't dwell on this. We haven't helped enough people, have we? But there are countless women in this world who have suffered such a miserable life as Aunt Hehua! There is no way we can help them all!"
Her voice was particularly penetrating in the silent night: "So, everything we do is more meaningful! It's not to help one or two people, but to change the world! Look at my elder sister's academy, it's been running for eight or nine years. Those ignorant girls back then are now more or less able to stand on their own feet."
They are the spark.
They can build more academies and teach more girls to read and understand, so that they know that women can survive on their own and live a decent life.
They have been working on this for many years.
Although at that time, I didn’t think so lofty.
But when it comes to helping people around her to the best of her ability, Lu Qinniang is impeccable.
She is not a savior.
Yun Ting echoed his words, offering comfort and support. "Zhuozhuo is right. This won't happen overnight. Perhaps our generation, or even the next, won't see a complete transformation. But as long as we persevere, generation after generation, it will always be better than it is now. Isn't the Empress also working towards this?"
After all, they have already embarked on this path.
The incident with the lotus only made them more clearly aware of the significance of this matter and gave them more strength to persevere.
"Yes, we still have a long way to go." Lu Qiniang gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, everyone go back and rest. We still have things to do tomorrow."
She glanced at everyone and suddenly said, "Daya, why do you look so bad?"
Erya said, "Just now I advised my elder sister to go back and rest early, but she refused."
Daya forced a smile and wanted to say something, but the next moment, her eyes went dark and she fell backwards.
Fortunately, Jiang Xuan was always paying attention to her and quickly hugged her.
Lu Qiniang was terrified.
These days, Daya has actually been quite obedient. She rarely stays up late and eats regularly.
Why do you feel dizzy again?
Could it be that there was some root of disease left over from before?
Doctor Hu was soon invited in.
"Lao Hu, Lao Hu..."
"Tiger?" Doctor Hu rolled his eyes at Lu Qiniang. "I'm checking her pulse, why are you making such a fuss?"
Lu Qiniang: "...Okay."
It’s okay for capable people to have a bad temper.
Mainly looking at Doctor Hu's appearance, it doesn't seem to be very serious.
At this moment, Daya has woken up, her face is pale and she looks a little weak.
After a moment, Doctor Hu frowned and said, "Why did it come so soon? You should recuperate for a few more months."
"What's coming?" Lu Qiniang asked subconsciously.
But Erya was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Big sister is pregnant?"
There was disbelief in Lu Qiniang's eyes.
Daya herself is similar.
Doctor Hu nodded. "It's still early. If we consult another doctor, they might not be able to diagnose it. Is your menstrual period just a few days late?"
Daya nodded, her eyes still a little confused.
She has never had regular menstruation, so she didn't take it seriously.
Who would have thought that there is already a child in my belly?
And it was discovered today...
Life is probably like this, constantly saying goodbye and welcoming.
"It's okay, don't be too nervous." Doctor Hu said, "The baby is here because of fate. Eat well, get enough rest, and don't overwork yourself."
"I'm going to be a grandmother?" Lu Qiniang seemed to have just realized it.
Very good.
Everyone has been looking forward to this child for a long time.
"Come on, let's go out and talk so Daya can have a good rest." Lu Qiniang said excitedly, "Old Hu, tell me how to take care of Daya..."
After everyone left, Jiang Xuan sat on the edge of the bed and held Daya's hand tightly.
"Zhao Zhao, how do you feel now?"
He was somewhat thankful that he had been too busy to go home these past few days, so the two of them didn't...
But he was really worried that Daya's body could not withstand the pain of pregnancy.
She is really too thin.
Jiang Xuan couldn't imagine her with a big belly.
"I'm fine. I made you worry just now." Daya smiled. "You're going to be a father soon. Is Master Jiang happy now?"
Jiang Xuan bent down and kissed her cheek, "Happy."
How could he not be happy when the person he loved the most gave birth to the fruit of their love?
It’s just that it hurts so much.
"Don't worry, I will eat well and rest well." Daya raised her other hand and touched his face, "Jiang Xuan, I am very happy."
He was very happy that he finally had a child, so that Jiang Xuan no longer had to be ridiculed for having no children when he was outside.
Jiang Xuan's peers have children who are already in their teens.
But they never had children.
Jiang Xuan never said it, but Daya knew what people outside would say about him.
She herself dared to be the first in the world and chose a thorny path, and never regretted it.
But she felt guilty towards her family, especially Jiang Xuan.
Over the years, Jiang Xuan has been her strongest support, silently supporting all her decisions.
But what did she bring to Jiang Xuan?
In fact, Daya has been looking forward to this child for a long time.
"Give me a daughter," Jiang Xuan whispered in her ear. "She's as sensible and intelligent as Zhao Zhao, humble and resilient, and she's determined to move forward. She'll inherit your career."
Daya made him see the brilliance of women, which was no less than the perseverance of men.
Daya chuckled, "It's good to have a son or a daughter."
There is no shortage of role models in their family, and all the boys and girls will be good children.
Although she advocates for girls' education and prefers girls to be caring, she is really happy to have a son or a daughter.
As long as the child is healthy and safe, that's all that matters.
"I'm just a little worried--" Daya said again.
