An hour and a half later.
Jiang Yue tidied herself up and left the room.
Before leaving, he glared fiercely at Lu Jingnian.
Lu Jingnian raised an eyebrow smugly.
Jiang Yue: "..." Who said that going on for too long is bad?
Fortunately, she called Cheng Wei early this morning after getting up and asked him to come and drive Xia Yang to school.
Otherwise, if she goes down now, Xia Yang will definitely be late for school.
When Jiang Yue came downstairs, most of her family members had already gone out, except for Grandma Jiang and Aunt Zhang.
"Grandma, where are my mom and the others?"
Jiang Yue asked.
Grandma Jiang said with a smile, "Your mother and the others went to the bridal chamber; they still need to decorate there."
"oh."
Jiang Yue nodded. Since Shen Min and the others were decorating the bridal chamber, Jiang Yue didn't plan to go there. She went to the kitchen to bring out breakfast. "Grandma, I'm going to Master's place after I've eaten breakfast."
"Go, go!"
Lu Jingnian came downstairs and, upon hearing Jiang Yue's words, immediately said, "Shall I go with you?"
"No."
Jiang Yue had other business with Old Man Chen, and it wasn't convenient for Lu Jingnian to know.
"If you have time, you should go find my brother. He hasn't come back since yesterday morning, and we can't reach him by phone. Huahua is getting her marriage certificate today, and he has to come back tonight to have dinner with everyone."
"good."
Lu Jingnian glanced at Jiang Yue and nodded.
"Then I'll take you to Master's place in a bit, and then I'll go find my older brother."
Jiang Yue didn't refuse, "Mmm."
After breakfast, Jiang Yue grabbed her bag and went out with Lu Jingnian.
Lu Jingnian rode his motorcycle and first took Jiang Yue to Old Man Chen's place.
When Jiang Yue arrived, Old Man Chen was sitting on a small stool, fishing by the pond in front of the door.
"Master."
Jiang Yue got out of the car, waved to Old Man Chen, and then said to Lu Jingnian, "Go and do your thing. I'll be fine with Master here."
In the afternoon, Cheng Wei will pick up my master and me, and we'll go to the hotel together.
Lu Jingnian reached out and pinched her cheek. "Okay, I understand."
Watching Lu Jingnian ride away on his motorcycle, Jiang Yue turned around and went to the pond to find Old Man Chen.
"Master, did you catch any fish?"
As Jiang Yue spoke, she glanced into the bucket next to her and found that there were already four or five small fish inside. The fish were only about the size of her palm, enough to make a fish soup for lunch.
Old Chen hooked an earthworm onto a fishing hook, cast it into the pond, and looked up at Jiang Yue, asking, "Has Xia Yang's matter been settled?"
Jiang Yue nodded, "I took Grandma Xia to the hospital and hired a caregiver to take care of her. I've also made arrangements for Xia Yang's school. He's already started school. He's still in elementary school. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to take care of himself at home alone, so I brought him home to stay with us for the time being."
"Aren't you going to ask me why I asked you to help Xia Yang?"
"Didn't Master say that I should do good deeds?"
Jiang Yue squatted down next to Old Man Chen, her smile incredibly sweet. "Master asked me to do this, it must be for my own good, I understand."
Old Chen smiled and raised an eyebrow when he heard her answer.
"Not bad, you're quite smart."
"Thank you for the compliment, Master."
As Jiang Yue spoke, she came over and massaged Old Man Chen's shoulders. "Master, I've come today because I need your help with something."
"I know what you're going to ask."
Old Chen looked at her, sighed helplessly, and asked with pity in his eyes, "But have you really thought this through?"
Jiang Yue nodded seriously, "Master, I have been thinking about this for a long time, and I have already made up my mind."
The old Taoist priest only told me that if I gave Lu Jingnian half of my lifespan, I could help him escape this calamity. But he didn't tell me what Lu Jingnian would become if he survived.
"Master, Lu Jingnian really likes children, I'm afraid that after he comes back..."
Jiang Yue didn't want to think the worst, but what if?
Old Chen sighed as he listened to Jiang Yue's single-minded focus on Lu Jingnian. "You know all this, but do you also know that he is a man who should have died? Even if you gave him more lifespan, he shouldn't have any descendants."
Jiang Yue was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "How could this be?"
She knew that even if Lu Jingnian escaped death, he would still be in danger, a fact she had deduced from the book her master had given her.
But Jiang Yue didn't know that Lu Jingnian was forbidden from having children in his entire life.
"Is this what I asked you earlier, 'Have you really thought this through?'"
"If you insist on leaving him with offspring, you will have to go through a death ordeal just like him."
"You're different from Lu Jingnian. You've already lent out your lifespan, so you can't borrow anyone else's. Your death tribulation is the day you give birth; you alone must overcome it. If you pass it, your future will be smooth sailing." Old Chen said, pointing to Jiang Yue's belly, "If you don't, it will be a triple tragedy."
"One unborn child, three lives lost?"
Jiang Yue suddenly looked down at her stomach, her voice trembling with excitement, "Master, are you saying I'm pregnant now?"
Is she pregnant with twins?
Seeing Old Man Chen nod, Jiang Yue felt a mix of excitement, conflict, and sadness; her feelings were quite complex.
She has always been a very calm person. To be honest, she thinks she can be a little selfish at times. No matter what happens, she will always try to do things in a way that benefits herself.
Jiang Yue touched her belly and pursed her lips. If she weren't pregnant now, she would have given up on having a child without hesitation after hearing her master's words.
She didn't want to risk her life; she was waiting for Lu Jingnian to return.
But now she has two little lives in her belly. Although the little ones are not yet fully formed, Jiang Yue does not want to give them up.
After a while, Jiang Yue seemed to have made a big decision and looked up at Old Man Chen.
“Master, I want to give birth to these two children. No matter what the outcome, I will not regret it.”
"You!"
Although he had already guessed the outcome, Old Man Chen still sighed, "Since you have already made your decision, your master will help you one more time."
After Lu Jingnian leaves some time later, go to Pudu Temple in F City, kowtow all the way from the foot of the mountain to the temple gate, and ask all the monks of Pudu Temple to pray for you and chant sutras for a whole day.
In addition, you should continuously do good deeds to accumulate merit for yourself.
"Remember, the higher your merit, the greater your chances of survival and the chances of your unborn child surviving. That's why I asked you to help Xia Yang."
Jiang Yue, this path isn't as simple as you think. It's not too late for you to regret it now.
Jiang Yue touched her lower abdomen, her expression very solemn and serious.
“Master, now that I have made my decision, I will not regret it. No matter how difficult this path is, I will walk it to the end. My child will definitely come into this world safely.”
I will live and wait for Lu Jingnian to return.
