Xu Changsheng: ...I don't think so. I have plenty of servants and don't need any more people.
During the ten months of pregnancy, the elders must be there to watch over the baby. Moreover, the water system in this area is well developed, and the shipping is smooth, making travel extremely convenient.
Changsheng took an invincible painkiller pill and gave birth to a son easily, shocking everyone.
Giving birth to a child, is it so easy?
Master Baili and his wife are satisfied with having a grandson.
In this era, Changsheng's mission is basically accomplished if he has a son.
But she didn't know Baili Xia's little thoughts.
He found that a child could actually hold back his wife's unruly pace, so he secretly worked hard. When his wife recovered and their son was over a year old, he started his plan to have a child again.
Changsheng didn't take any precautions against the person next to him. As for why he didn't just take a sterilization pill for himself, it was a matter of fact.
When the eldest son was two years old, she gave birth to another daughter.
Changsheng waited until his body recovered before he started to cause trouble for Bailixia.
Twisting ears, kneeling on a washboard.
Baili Xia admitted her mistake so well that she lost her temper.
The ancients believed that having many children meant more blessings, and Baili Xia didn’t have a concubine or anything, alas.
With a son and a daughter already hanging around, Baili Xia also restrained himself a bit. In the short term, he didn't dare to let his wife get pregnant again. He secretly drank the medicine, and Changsheng pretended not to know.
There were many little fairies along the Qinhuai River, tempting her to live forever, but the two little burdens really affected the atmosphere, so she had to stay home and play with the children.
Of course, she didn't dare to do that in front of Baili Xia.
Even though he used to be a playboy, he has matured a lot in recent years. He looks like an official who serves the people and acts like a father.
Although Changsheng was used to being domineering in front of Baili Xia, she would become timid as long as Baili Xia's face turned stern.
One big one and two small ones, they are used to reading people's expressions and know who has the final say on some matters in this family.
Although Changsheng is a rotten place, because the north and south of Jiangnan are well connected, you can often find good things there, especially good things from the southernmost part. Some imported goods from overseas are even rarer.
Although the imperial court has imposed a maritime ban, there are still many pirates running rampant on overseas islands, and overseas visitors occasionally dock there.
When Changsheng occasionally encountered goods being transported from the southernmost part to the Jiangnan area, he would inevitably come across one or two new and interesting things.
Others probably just looked at it as a curious toy, but Changsheng recognized it.
For example, crops like corn, for example...
She arranged for planting on her own farm and accumulated a batch of good seeds, which she then handed over to Baili Xia to work on.
…
Baili Xia had a smooth career, and she raised her son and daughter into a pair of little dandies.
If it weren't for the two old fathers from the Baili family and the Xu family, I'm afraid he would have been raised to waste.
Baili Xia: ...
Because his wife only knows how to stir up trouble, the subsequent development and aftermath all depend on him. He has been extremely busy with official duties over the years. Fortunately, he has his elder brother-in-law to share the burden, otherwise he would really worry about dying suddenly on the job.
Who would have thought that a playboy like him would be where he is today!
Whenever His Majesty the Emperor summoned him, he couldn't help but sigh, "Every dude has potential."
Master Baili and his wife offer ancestor worship every year according to the highest standards. It is truly a manifestation of their ancestors' power.
Old Man Xu also felt that he had been wrong. He used to worry that his daughter would marry a playboy, who would look glamorous but actually have a hard life. Who knew that this playboy was a fake.
Unlike Baili Xia's success and happy family, Zhang Shuhe and Meng Junran had a somewhat unfortunate fate.
Because Meng Junran did not take good care of her body after giving birth, she was unable to conceive a second child. Zhang's mother wanted to have a grandson, so she waited for half a year and finally followed her to Jeju.
Three generations of grandparents and grandchildren lived together.
Meng Junran's health had been improving, but he became suspicious due to Zhang's mother's daily insinuations.
If Zhang Shuhe came off duty late or went out for a small gathering with his colleagues, she would become suspicious, suspecting that he had someone else outside and that the young girl in the house was someone that her mother-in-law was planning to place in their room.
Because of her poor condition, she couldn't raise her only daughter well.
When the child is older, the grandmother will tell the child that her mother abandoned her at birth to sow discord between them and the child so that they will not be close to their mother at all.
Because her daughter, who nearly lost her life during the ten months of pregnancy, was not close to Meng Junran, she began to doubt the possibility of having her own child.
What's the point of giving birth to her? Do you hate her?
Zhang Shuhe came from a poor family and could not compare with many of his colleagues who had good backgrounds. He needed to work a hundred times or a thousand times harder than others to have a smooth career.
However, the conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law made him, who was caught in the middle, walk on thin ice.
He used to have a beloved wife at home, but now he wishes he could stay on duty in the yamen every day.
He didn't understand why there were so many conflicts between women. He didn't understand why his wife, who was sensible and generous before, became unreasonable. He didn't understand why his mother couldn't love her family as well.
Yes, who would have thought that he would use the word "unreasonable" to describe his wife, whom he once loved deeply and was so happy with.
Who would have thought that the great talent Zhang Shuhe would have such unfilial thoughts deep in his heart.
He was tired, physically and mentally.
Jun Ran had discussed a marriage with the Baili family before, and he had inquired about it.
Baili Xia now holds an important position and is well-known in the imperial city.
He is still too young now. In time, he will definitely have a place in the cabinet.
Do you envy his family background?
But Baili Xia did make good use of the resources at his disposal, securing a high position for himself and continuing the prosperity of the Baili clan for at least two more generations. He also effectively filled the granaries of the ordinary people of this era and improved their lives...
