Chapter 542 Spoiled and Willful Wife VS Cowardly and Fearful Husband 34
When Junyu saw Jiang Zhiyi suddenly gagging, he didn't even put down the fish cake in his hand and hurriedly reached out to support her back.
"What's wrong? Where does it hurt?" he asked, patting her back as he tried to ease her discomfort.
Jiang Zhiyi gagged for a while before she could barely recover, and her face was somewhat pale.
She leaned against Junyu's chest, her voice weak: "I don't know... I was fine when I drank the milk, but I felt nauseous and disgusted after biting into this fish cake."
Jun Yu helped her sit up straight, wiped her mouth, and then immediately lifted the carriage curtain, ordering outside, "Stop and call the accompanying doctor!"
Logically speaking, the milk and fish cakes should be very fresh, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Seeing his young master's anxious expression, the attendant outside dared not delay and quickly replied, "Yes."
The carriage soon stopped at the roadside.
Junyu poured another glass of water and held it to Jiang Zhiyi's lips.
"Drink some warm water to rinse your mouth and catch your breath."
Jiang Zhiyi obediently drank a few sips, leaned back, her eyes somewhat unfocused, her stomach still aching slightly.
A short while later, the doctor came over and took Jiang Zhiyi's pulse. He placed his fingers on her wrist, his brows furrowing slightly, and only released her after a long while.
Junyu, who was watching anxiously from the side, quickly asked, "What happened? Did you eat something bad?"
The doctor stroked his beard, a smile appearing on his face, and bowed to Jun Yu, saying, "Congratulations, young master and madam! This isn't an illness, it's pregnancy!"
"You're pregnant?" Jun Yu stood there stunned, not reacting for a moment. "Are you sure the diagnosis wasn't wrong?"
Jiang Zhiyi was also stunned.
She looked down at her lower abdomen, her face first showing surprise, then gradually turning to worry.
How is that possible?
How could she possibly be pregnant?!
The doctor smiled and nodded.
Although the pulse sounded a bit strange, he had been practicing medicine for many years and had seen a lot of things. He knew that people were different and that some differences were normal. He was sure he hadn't made a mistake in his diagnosis.
The doctor continued, "That's right, Madam's pulse is steady and strong, undoubtedly a sign of pregnancy. Judging from the pulse, it's been about a month. However, in the early stages of pregnancy, Madam may experience some morning sickness. Just now, she probably felt unwell because of the fishy smell of the fish cake. In the future, please pay more attention to your diet, try to avoid greasy and fishy foods, and eat more light and nutritious foods."
Jun Yu regained his senses, and the anxiety on his face was replaced by joy. He sighed several times, "Good! Good! There will be rewards for everyone!"
He looked down at Jiang Zhiyi's belly, and he was very excited.
He originally thought it might take some time, but he didn't expect the child to arrive so quickly.
This is truly a joyous occasion!
The doctor gave some more instructions before getting up and leaving.
"It's all my fault. I should have known that your tastes have been changing lately, and I shouldn't have let you touch these fishy things."
As he spoke, Junyu suddenly seemed to have made a decision.
“We’re not going to Hai County anymore, we’re heading back to the manor! There are dedicated nannies and cooks here who can take good care of you and the child. I’m really worried about the bumpy road.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyi's eyelashes trembled violently, and her hands, hanging at her sides, quietly clenched the hem of her skirt.
She looked up, forcing a smile that was a little coquettish, and said in a soft voice, "I'm not going back. I've been looking forward to going to Haixian to see the sea! Besides, we've already come so far, it would be such a pity to go back now."
"I just suddenly felt unwell, but I'm much better now, look—" She deliberately straightened her back, as if to prove she was alright, "It's really nothing... I just won't eat any fishy-smelling food anymore. Let's go to Hai County for a few days, and then we'll go home to rest and prepare for the baby..."
Looking into her bright eyes, Junyu felt even more hesitant.
He knew that Jiang Zhiyi had been looking forward to visiting Hai County since before the trip, and it was a real pity that she had to give up halfway.
But when he thought of her pale face earlier, he couldn't help but worry.
"But you just threw up and you're still weak. What if something else happens on the way?"
"No way!" Jiang Zhiyi hurriedly interrupted him, reaching out to grasp his hand, her grip unconsciously tightening, and she decided to act childish. "I just want to go! I'll take good care of myself and the child. If you don't give in this time, I'll never talk to you again!"
Seeing her persistent attitude, Junyu finally softened his heart.
He sighed helplessly and reached out to touch her face.
"Alright, let's go then, but we need to travel slowly. If you feel unwell again, go back to the manor immediately and don't be willful anymore."
"Mm." Jiang Zhiyi nodded.
She leaned against Junyu's chest, feeling his warm body temperature, but her heart was ice-cold.
The group continued on their journey.
Junyu specifically instructed the caravan to slow down, and the carriages moved along at a leisurely pace.
Inside the train carriage.
Junyu sat to the side, feeling both excited and nervous, afraid of running into Jiang Zhiyi.
His gaze fell on her lower abdomen, his eyes so tender they could melt water, and he said gently, "You can't run around and jump around like before. You're pregnant now, so you should stay still and not move around..."
Jiang Zhiyi glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Junyu assumed she was still feeling unwell and reached out to pull her into his arms, saying, "You should get some sleep."
Jiang Zhiyi was feeling annoyed and didn't want to waste her energy paying attention to him. She leaned against him, closed her eyes, and started thinking. Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
When she woke up, she was already in a guest room at an inn along the way.
The sky outside darkened, and soft candlelight shone inside the room.
Junyu sat by the bed, holding a medical book in his hand. Seeing that she had woken up, he quickly put it down and asked with concern, "You're awake? Is anything bothering you?"
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head, sat up, and looked at Jun Yu, "How long have I been asleep?"
“It’s been almost a whole day. I was worried that you’d wake up and no one would be there for you, so I didn’t leave,” Junyu said with a smile, pouring her another glass of water. “Would you like something to eat? I’ll have someone keep the porridge warm.”
Jiang Zhiyi nodded.
Junyu had someone bring over some porridge and patiently fed it to her.
He sat on the edge of the bed and chatted with her, but unlike before, his conversation today mostly revolved around the baby that was coming soon.
It's easy to see that he has high expectations for and values this child.
Jiang Zhiyi responded occasionally, but her enthusiasm was not high.
She had no intention of keeping the child.
But I'm on the road right now, so it's inconvenient for me to take action.
Once she arrived in Hai County, she immediately tried to get rid of the child.
