Fang Qing then fell silent.
Perhaps she should ask Zhao Shi'an?
After seeing Zhao off, Fang Qing went back.
Zhao Shi'an had already returned to the backyard and was checking the bedding in their room.
"They did their job quite well; everything was clean inside and out. Are you tired? Why don't you take a break?"
Zhao Shi'an sat on the bed and patted the soft bedding.
Fang Qing walked over and sat down next to him, looking at him hesitantly.
"What's wrong? Why do you seem troubled?"
"elder brother."
Zhao Shi'an was taken aback by her form of address.
After they got together, Fang Qing never addressed him as a married couple again.
"Who bullied you? Why are you so upset?"
He gently embraced Fang Qing and kissed her cheek.
"Do you want children?" Fang Qing asked.
Zhao Shi'an immediately knew that Zhao Shi must have said something to Fang Qing.
"I don't want it."
Fang Qing looked at him in surprise.
"Why?"
"Because you don't like it."
Fang Qing was stunned, suddenly remembering that Zhao Shi'an had asked him this question before because of the charity.
At the time, her answer seemed to be that she neither liked nor disliked it, and she also indicated that she did not want to have children.
"Then, what about you? If you like..."
Zhao Shi'an pinched her cheek.
"You don't need to consider whether I like it or not. Since I can't help you share the hardships of pregnancy and the pain of childbirth, I have no right to decide whether to have a child. Qing'er, the belly is yours, and the right to choose is in your hands. You don't have to listen to anyone's opinion, not even your closest person."
Such a gentle tone brought tears to Fang Qing's eyes.
"Zhao Shi'an, you must have traveled from the modern era."
She was so moved she almost cried.
For a man from a feudal dynasty to have such awareness, what good deeds did she do in her past life to meet Zhao Shi'an?
"Which dynasty are you from?"
Fang Qing sniffed and said, "Even in our time, not many men had the same thoughts as you, so I'm very touched."
Zhao Shi'an wiped away the moisture from the corners of her eyes.
"What's so touching about this? If I were the one who could have children, I wouldn't want to either."
Fang Qing hugged Zhao Shi'an back, feeling as if her heart was filled to the brim.
Zhao Shi'an is truly a treasure.
No wonder she likes Zhao Shi'an so much.
"What if they laugh at me later for being unable to lay eggs..."
Zhao Shi'an covered her mouth.
"I'd like to see who dares to say that. I'll make them regret ever being born."
Fang Qing smiled and nestled into his arms.
Although these words sounded so childish, Fang Qing still found them very appealing.
"Anyway, I won't listen. We'll just live our own lives," Fang Qing said with a smile.
Zhao Shi'an rubbed her face without saying anything, but he already had other ideas in mind.
Exhausted from their journey, they rested in the house for a while until Xiao Liu came to report that Fang Zhu had brought Princess Min'er, at which point they got up.
