Chapter 87 Pregnancy



In the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Liao looked at the imperial physician nervously.

The imperial physician frowned as he took the patient's pulse, and his heart was in his throat.

He was afraid that his fate of being unlucky in marriage would also apply to Tu Qingyu.

At this time, the Tu sisters and their parents were still waiting in the outer hall. The people around Shen Liao spoke to them respectfully:

"Master, Madam, and the young ladies should go back first. When there is news, we will send someone to notify you."

Before Madam Tu and Father Tu could even speak, Tu Qingye said anxiously, "How can that be possible? With Third Sister in this state, how can we be at ease?"

"Yes, the third sister fainted." Tu Qingmiao didn't have any thoughts. She was really worried about her third sister.

When Tu Qingyu was still in the Tu family, she had a good relationship with this youngest sister.

Mrs. Tu gave Tu Qingye an ambiguous look.

Finally, he said to the people around Shen Liao with worried eyes: "Let's wait for news here. If we go back now, we will feel uneasy."

No matter what, you still have to do the superficial work.

And today she finally got to know the methods of her concubine's daughter.

She felt that good days were ahead for such a smart and capable person.

"Then I'll serve you some refreshments."

The imperial physician inside finally finished taking the patient's pulse, stood up, and said with a relaxed expression, "Congratulations, my Lord. Congratulations, my Lord. My wife has been pregnant for almost a month."

I was worried one second ago, and was hit by a huge surprise the next second.

Shen Liao looked at the imperial physician, and for the first time, he showed his emotions in front of outsiders, "Really?!"

"If I'm not mistaken, it's definitely a pregnancy, but it's still early. If you're worried, you can come back to me in half a month. There's no chance of a mistake then."

"Then why is she unconscious now? Is she seriously injured?"

"It's probably caused by being too tired from being pregnant and being frightened. I'll prescribe some medicine to keep the pregnancy going, and it should be fine."

Shen Liao raised his hand and bowed, "Thank you, Imperial Physician."

The imperial physician waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, Your Majesty is too polite."

After sending the imperial physician out, he didn't even have time to pay attention to the Tu family members who were still in the outer hall.

He went straight back to the inner room and looked at Tu Qingyu lying on the bed with a pale face, his heart full of pity.

This is his wife, the one who will be with him until old age.

Now she is pregnant with his child, but she is irritated by his other child.

Thinking of this, he lowered his eyes, thoughts surging in his eyes.

I gradually felt more displeased with Chen Yao.

He was already six years old, but he didn't care about the family honor at all and was trying to embarrass his stepmother in public.

No wonder the young wife made it clear from the beginning that she didn't want to get involved.

Nowadays, you can be splashed with dirty water in public without having any involvement in anything. If you have any involvement, won’t there be even more dirty water splashed on you that you won’t be able to explain yourself?

He reached out and gently stroked Tu Qingyu's beautiful face.

At this moment, the balance in my heart began to tilt.

After looking in the room for a long time, he got up and went outside to explain the situation to the Tu family.

"Really?" Mrs. Tu was shocked when she learned that Tu Qingyu was pregnant. "Is she really pregnant?"

Then she realized that what she said was wrong, and immediately said happily: "Oh, I, I am going to be a grandmother again?"

"That's great, that's great."

How could there be such a lucky person? Not only did she get a title right after getting married, but she is pregnant now.

It’s only been a short time.

Could it be that she got pregnant on her wedding night?

She was not the only one who was jealous. Tu Qingye almost crushed her palm to avoid losing her composure in front of everyone.

But even so, Shen Liao was still keenly aware of the calculation that flashed across her eyes.

Ever since he acquired the ability to read minds, he has become very sensitive to emotions.

Relying on this, he has been more successful in the court during this period than ever before.

If he wasn't so young, the old emperor would have wanted to promote him to be the Minister of Revenue.

He looked at Tu Qingye meaningfully.

Tu Qingye felt that he had finally noticed her, so she quickly composed herself and gave what she thought was a perfect smile.

Unfortunately, Shen Liao did not respond to her, but just frowned and looked away.

Mrs. Tu noticed her intention.

But she didn't care too much. The backyard of a noble marquis was not something people like them could interfere with.

Even if they are considered the Marquis' wife's family.

But don't forget, this wife's family was not established because the Tu and Shen families were well matched, but because of a daughter's birth date and the emperor's marriage.

After seeing off the Tu family members, Shen Liao went to Shen Yao's yard.

At this time, Chen Yao, who had been pretending to faint, had woken up. After all, she was only six years old. When she heard that Tu Qingyu had fainted, her first reaction was happiness, and then fear.

It’s not that she was afraid that Tu Qingyu would faint because of her, but she was afraid that her father would cause trouble for her.

When she saw Shen Liao stepping into her yard, she immediately ran over, hugged Shen Liao's thighs and started crying.

"Wuwu... Dad, I, I didn't mean it. I just don't want Mammy. Mother, Mother didn't do anything to me. It's all... Yao'er's fault..."

Shen Liao frowned when he heard this, and with a cold face he brushed away Shen Yao who was hugging him and pushing him away.

Sitting at the head of the main hall, he stared at Chen Yao expressionlessly.

Chen Yao subconsciously stopped crying and stood below Chen Liao.

Shen Liao looked at his daughter, who still had traces of tears on her face, and said helplessly, "Why are you going to the banquet hall today?"

"Father." Chen Yao looked up at him. "In the past, we went everywhere. Now that you've married a new wife, we can't go anywhere, right?"

“I didn’t say you couldn’t go, I meant, why would you go to the banquet hall and embarrass your mother?

I'm the one who's going to replace your governess. Why are you crying in public?

Isn't that embarrassing enough?"

"Shameful? Father thinks I'm shameful?"

Shen Liao said nothing, his eyes full of disappointment.

Chen Yao continued, "If it weren't for her instigation, father, how could you have replaced my nanny?"

"She instigated this? Who do you mean to her? She doesn't even like to mention you two!"

"I think you are really uneducated and need a good nanny to teach you!"

The word "uneducated" hit Shen Yao's heart.

She was shaking with anger, "My daughter lost her mother when she was young... She is naturally uneducated..."

Her eyes were stubborn and a little resentful.

The hatred in her heart for Tu Qingyu reached its peak. At this moment, she really wished that woman would die!

"Chen Yao." Seeing her stiff neck, as if she was doing nothing wrong, Shen Liao became even more disappointed. "I'll only say this once, so listen carefully."

"Since you don't like her, then don't appear in front of her again. If you don't take the initiative to provoke her, she won't pay any attention to you."

"You are the legitimate daughter of the Shen family. No matter who I marry, you will always be the legitimate daughter of the Shen family. As long as the Shen family survives, you will be able to enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of your life."

"If you do anything unnecessary and implicate the Shen family, no one can protect you."

"Did you hear that?"
