The next day, when Tang Wan woke up, Mo Tingzhu covered her eyes mysteriously. His palms were warm, and he could feel the trembling of her eyelashes.
She seemed a little nervous, her eyes moving around restlessly, like a little heart pressed against the palm of his hand.
"Don't be afraid." Mo Tingzhu covered her eyes with a ribbon.
"What are you going to show me?"
"You'll know when you wait." Mo Tingzhu's mysterious tone aroused her curiosity.
Tang Wan was actually well again, but they didn't believe it. Mo Tingzhu wrapped her tightly, not even letting her feet touch the ground, and carried her to the next room.
After a moment, Tang Wan felt the light and suddenly opened her eyes.
There was a large area of things in front of me, colorful, big and small.
"What are these?"
"Your birthday gift."
"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. It seems that today is indeed my birthday." Tang Wan knocked her head in annoyance.
It's true that pregnancy makes one stupider. She even forgot her birthday.
"Come and see if you like it."
Tang Wan looked at the things on the table, some big, some small, some cheap, some priceless.
From small items like wave drums, candied haws, small gold locks, and silver bracelets to large items like jade pendants and bracelets, there are a total of sixteen items.
"Why did you buy so much? Besides, I'm already old enough to use all that."
"It's one thing that you can't use it, and it's another that I want to give it to you. These things are for your past self."
Mo Tingzhu's ears flushed slightly, as if a little embarrassed: "I heard everything you said to your mother that day."
"I give you what they didn't give you before. I know you've suffered a lot since you were a child. I only regret that I didn't meet you earlier. Otherwise, you would have become my wife long ago."
Tang Wan felt a lump in her nose and could hardly control her tears.
Mo Tingzhu quickly made a face, successfully making her laugh, and then kissed her cheek: "Don't cry, I prepared these to make you happy."
"If, if it was someone else instead of me who married you, would you still treat her so well?"
Tang Wan desperately wanted an answer. Although this question seemed so inappropriate and would ruin the atmosphere at the moment, she still wanted to ask.
She still lacks care in her heart, perhaps because she has never felt safe since childhood, so what others give her should be unique so that no one else can steal her love.
Mo Tingzhu said aggrievedly, "Of course not. Who do you think I am? We are the couple described in the storybook, who went through countless hardships to be together. If it were someone else, I would probably just be afraid or disgusted, and would never think of changing me."
"But you are different. You are different from everyone else. You don't dislike me."
His eyes were slightly red, and his throat was rolling: "You know, ever since that incident, I have become extremely irritable. In fact, everyone around me, including my mother, treats me more or less differently."
"In fact, I know in my heart that if I didn't have my current status, no one would be my friend, not even a bad friend."
"They are just afraid of my power, but you are not. You are not afraid of me, nor do you despise me. You have contributed to my current situation. No one else can achieve what you have achieved."
"I admit that maybe, at the beginning, I didn't like you, but you know, I don't know when it started, but I wanted you to control me and was willing to let you control me."
"I was a bit of a jerk in the past, but I can change for the better. I swear to God, from now on, I will only have you as my wife, and I will never give my true heart to anyone else."
Tang Wan could hardly control her tears. When Mo Tingzhu was speaking, he put away his previous nonchalant attitude and spoke with extreme seriousness, staring into her eyes.
To him, this is a very solemn and serious matter that should be taken to heart and treated well.
She pursed her lips, bit her lower lip, and asked awkwardly, "What about your son? Don't you love him either?"
"After all, he's a father, and I'll take on the responsibilities that should be taken on. He's still your child, so of course I'll love him. What I mean is, as long as it's about you, I'll take it to heart and I'll love it. Wanwan, do you understand me?"
His eyes were sincere, and the phoenix eyes that were always known to be heartless were now full of affection.
"Smooth talk."
"This is called sincerity. You can't keep saying this to me because I was smooth-talking before. That would be too unfair to me." He smiled and looked at her with his chin supported.
Tang Wan pinched his face, felt the reality, and finally confirmed Mo Tingzhu's love once again.
She was willing to believe him once.
A month passed quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, and summer came quietly.
Heng'er is now one month old.
His full moon banquet was very grand, and all the important people came.
After growing for a month, he became more handsome than when he was just born, with fair skin and round eyes. When he saw people, he would giggle and his eyes would bend into little crescents, which made him particularly endearing.
Mo's mother cherishes it so much that she wishes she could keep it in her hands all the time.
Tang Wan took the powder pill and rested for another month, and her body had recovered long ago.
In the front hall, several ladies who were about the same age as Mo's mother looked at this little baby with admiration.
"Oh, you're so cute, round and plump, you look blessed at first glance."
"Yeah, he's smiling at me. So cute. Does he have a name?"
"Yes, yes, his name is Jinheng, given by his father."
"What a nice name. Oh, little darling, let auntie hug you."
Heng'er blew a few bubbles, which melted the hearts of all the ladies.
How could there be a child who looks so delicate and pretty, just like a fairy.
It was not until they saw the child's mother that they understood who the child took after.
My mother is so beautiful and charming, it’s hard for her to be ugly.
Look at the young prince. He married a beautiful, virtuous and household-managing wife, and now has a big fat boy. He also passed the imperial examination and became a top scholar. He is truly excellent in every way.
Unlike that bad boy at home, he didn't achieve anything in his studies, and he hasn't gotten married. In all these years, he hasn't given birth to a legitimate son.
There were rumors that the little prince was not able to function, but now, maybe in a few months, the child will be able to walk around.
But these heirs from normal families didn't even have the shadow of a child.
I have to give him a good spur when I get back. If that doesn't work, I'll have to use some special methods.
At the same time, several young men in each mansion sneezed at the same time. They felt something was wrong, as if someone was saying bad things about them behind their backs.
It's really strange. I haven't been out for these days. I have been memorizing my lessons wholeheartedly according to my family's requirements. How could I have offended anyone?
