Chapter 36: Growing Old Together



Shi Jianqiu and Shi Kai initially teased Ye Xichen, thinking he was pretending, but after spending more time with him, they found that Ye Xichen really looked like a pregnant woman.

Even the way they walk is similar.

Moreover, Ye Xichen quit drinking and did not drink a drop of alcohol during Zhou Yiyi's pregnancy.

Finally, the day arrived when the baby was due.

Zhou Yiyi, who was lying in bed giving birth, felt nothing. However, Ye Xichen, who was guarding outside the temple, felt severe pain in his stomach and the urge to defecate from time to time.

At first, he could tolerate it for the sake of saving face, but when the feeling became more and more obvious, he could no longer sit still and walked back and forth in the yard.

The Empress Dowager looked at her son who looked like he was giving birth, and could only hold her forehead helplessly, not knowing how to help.

Zhou Yiyi felt that giving birth was not that difficult. He lay there, listening to the midwife's instructions, breathing in and out deeply, and it was not painful. He gave birth to the baby.

When the twins, a boy and a girl, were carried out of the delivery room, the Empress Dowager was so happy that she burst into tears. Ye Xichen was already sweating profusely from exhaustion, as if he had given birth to the children himself.

Strangely enough, since the birth of the child, all of Ye Xichen's symptoms have completely disappeared and he has returned to his previous state.

And Zhou Yiyi started her confinement period on Monday.

The two little ones don't look exactly alike. The boy is a replica of Ye Xichen, while the girl looks very similar to Zhou Yiyi.

The little prince had never cried or made a fuss since he was born, and had a stern face all day long. The little princess, on the other hand, smiled every day, but would cry and make a fuss the moment she was not satisfied.

No matter how busy Ye Xichen is with official duties, he will accompany Zhou Yiyi every day and take care of the two children personally.

It was not until the full moon came on Monday that Ye Xichen put the matter of ascending the throne on the agenda.

On the day Ye Xichen ascended the throne, he appointed Zhou Yiyi as queen, the eldest prince as crown prince, and the eldest princess as princess.

They also officially moved into the palace.

Others would have two children in three years, but Ye Xichen had four in three years. The reason was that as soon as the child was one month old, Ye Xichen stayed by Zhou Yiyi's side every day, constantly asking for his affection.

Although the palace had already arranged a wet nurse, Zhou Yiyi thought that these were her first pair of children, so she wanted to feed them herself.

Even if someone helped take care of the child, Zhou Yiyi still felt exhausted every day. In addition, Ye Xichen kept asking for things, which made Zhou Yiyi very annoyed.

When the child was half a year old, she became pregnant again and took the twin pill again, this time hoping to have two boys.

With the experience of the first time, when I got pregnant for the second time, Zhou Yiyi started taking the lucky pills as soon as she became pregnant.

Ye Xichen experienced the feeling of pregnancy again. He didn't even need the imperial physician to take his pulse. When he himself noticed something wrong with his body, he knew that he was going to be a father again.

This feeling can be said to be painful and happy.

After the second child's two sons were born, Ye Xichen took all three sons with him and took care of them personally, leaving Zhou Yiyi to take care of his only daughter.

When the eldest princess turned five, Zhou Yi discovered that the little girl was even more pretentious than herself. She would cry, shout and make a fuss at the slightest displeasure. To irritate her daughter, Zhou Yi got pregnant again.

This time I took the Twin Girl Birth Pill directly.

After the two little daughters were born, they really became like Zhou Yiyi’s warm little cotton-padded jackets. They never cried or made a fuss since they were young. They were well-behaved and very obedient.

Moreover, the two of them have inherited the best features of Zhou Yiyi and Ye Xichen, and have been extremely beautiful since childhood.

Zhou Yiyi especially likes to hug her two younger daughters and make her angry with her eldest daughter. Unexpectedly, the eldest daughter is not angry at all. Instead, she loves her two younger sisters even more than she does.

There were originally rumors that Ye Xichen was disabled, but as the children were born one by one, those rumors were proven false.

When the eldest prince was 15 years old, Ye Xichen wanted to give the throne to him, and he planned to take Zhou Yiyi to travel around the country.

Before the eldest prince could agree, Zhou Yiyi directly refused.

"Why? The child is only 15 years old, and you let him bear such a heavy responsibility? You should just take care of your official business here, and I will take the children out to play!"

Zhou Yiyi kept his word and immediately took his six children and a large number of slaves and guards to travel around the entire Kingdom of David.

Poor Ye Xichen was overwhelmed by trivial matters and had no time to spare. He could only rely on the letters written by his son and daughter from time to time to ease his homesickness.

Five years later, Ye Xichen once again begged Zhou Yiyi to take him with him.

The eldest prince had already married and inherited the throne. He brought his younger brothers and sisters with him, and even though he was very reluctant to leave, he allowed his father to accompany his mother on a tour of the world.

The couple became known as a fairy couple among the people of David. Not only did they travel around, but they also understood the sufferings of the people and solved them promptly, bringing unprecedented prosperity to the entire David Kingdom.

Wait until the day Ye Xichen turns 70.

He was still chatting and laughing with Zhou Yiyi in the morning, and after lunch, he sat on the couch, rested his head on Zhou Yiyi's shoulder, held her hand, closed his eyes, and passed away.

The system had already reminded Zhou Yiyi before. Although Zhou Yiyi didn't feel it was too sudden, he still felt a little uncomfortable with it.

Both of them were already gray-haired old people. She kissed Ye Xichen on the face, leaned her head against his, and left this small world.
