However, Chu Yuan was not worried.
With Chu's parents in front of her, Song Tangyin constantly on guard behind her, and the system protecting her, it won't be so easy to harm her and her child.
[Yes, little cutie, as long as a child is under the system's surveillance, anything or anyone that wants to harm the child will be blocked by the system.]
Chu Yuan stroked her bulging belly, and having already experienced childbirth once, she felt a strange sense of reality.
It's not just the warm feeling of being a baby-making machine.
Two days before their daughter gave birth, Chu's parents still rushed to the capital.
As the carriage entered the city gate, Chu's mother felt much more at ease.
"Giving birth is like a woman passing through the gates of hell. Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law are not easy to deal with. Tell me, how can I feel at ease if I don't come and watch over them?"
Chu's mother was anxiously waiting, lifting the curtain every few steps the carriage took to look outside, wondering why the Song residence hadn't arrived yet.
Infected by her emotions, Chu's father also became a little nervous. "Could she have already given birth? The imperial physician predicted the date to be in the middle of the month, but it's only the tenth."
Chu's mother glared at him, "Do you think children are like rice seedlings in a paddy field, ripening whenever you want?"
These are all uncertain.
"I gave birth to Yuan'er late, but Ping'er early, don't you remember?"
Upon hearing this, Chu's father's face fell. "Forget it, I won't argue with you about this. We'll be there soon anyway."
"My poor Yuan'er, this time you must ensure the safety of both mother and child. Even if it's a daughter, a daughter is the pride of our Chu family!"
Hmph! Let's see if that old hag dares to call her Yuan'er a barren hen again!
She threatens people with the seven grounds for divorce every few days, and she's constantly trying to get her son-in-law to take a concubine. What a damned old hag!
What Chu's mother didn't know was that Song Kangshi was no longer so unpleasant.
When Song Xiuer got really noisy, she would even try to shoo her away, asking, "Where's Peng'er's father? When are he coming to pick you up?"
With just one sentence, Song Xiuer had no choice but to give up, whether she wanted to or not.
Because Chu Yuan was close to giving birth, the entire Song family was more vigilant and cautious than ever before. Strangers and unfamiliar objects had to be checked repeatedly before they could enter.
The servants in the mansion even lowered their voices, and special people were assigned to watch over dangerous items such as candles, just in case something happened and things got chaotic.
Chu Yuan herself rarely left her home to minimize the possibility of accidents.
Therefore, she was not notified immediately when Chu's parents arrived.
During her brief nap, she had a dream.
In the dream, Ye Ye appeared clearly and completely for the first time, with vivid features and expressions, smiling and calling out to her, "Mommy, I'm here."
Chu Yuan knew it was a dream, but she was still very shocked.
This is because Ye Ye rarely appears in her dreams.
If only the dead can appear in the dreams of the living, Chu Yuan desperately hoped that he wouldn't appear, so that she could imagine that Ye Ye was still living well somewhere in the world.
As soon as she spoke, her voice choked with emotion, "Yeye, how are you? Mommy missed you so much!"
"Mommy, don't worry about me, I'm fine."
Yeye reached out her hand to her.
The child has bright, deep-set eyes, large and round, and snow-white skin, like a porcelain doll. Even his arms are like lotus roots, chubby, tender, and white.
Chu Yuan grasped it tightly; it was warm and cozy.
She burst into tears immediately, "Yeye, where are you? Mommy has been looking for you so hard!"
The child clumsily wiped away her tears, saying, "Mommy, don't cry. Yeye is fine, really fine. Soon, Yeye will be reunited with Mommy."
The child gave a mischievous smile, and then his figure faded and faded until he disappeared completely.
"Yeye!"
Chu Yuan screamed in terror and sat bolt upright in her sleep!
Song Tangyin, who had been standing by her bedside without her noticing, tenderly pulled her into her arms. "Had a nightmare?"
It took Chu Yuan a while to process what was happening before she could accept that she was still in the process of transmigrating and completing a mission.
A tear slid down her cheek. "Hmm... was Ayin frightened?"
"No, it's just that you kept calling out a name in your dream, 'Yeye, Yeye,' who is he?"
Song Tangyin gently brushed aside Chu Yuan's sweat-dampened hair, leaned close, and kissed the corner of her eye, wiping away her tears.
Chu Yuan paused for a moment before regaining her composure and calmly said, "Yeye? He was a cute boy in my dream. Perhaps it was because I saw a handsome but pitiful beggar on the roadside a while ago, and with my due date approaching, I was overthinking things and that's why I dreamed of such a child..."
Her wandering soul is adrift somewhere, isn't she just a homeless beggar?
Thinking of this, Chu Yuan felt another suffocating heartache, spreading from her chest to her whole body, as if her stomach was also aching.
After listening, Song Tangyin seemed to understand something, and a loving smile appeared on her lips. "In that case, why don't we give our child the nickname Yeye?"
Chu Yuan sat up abruptly, looking at him incredulously, "Is that okay?"
Song Tangyin gently stroked Chu Yuan's cheek, then looked at her protruding belly. "Of course you can, why not?"
This is my child with Yuan'er. Yuan'er likes the name Ye Ye, so we'll call her Ye Ye.
After saying that, she called out twice to her stomach, "Yeye, Yeye..."
A miraculous scene unfolded: Chu Yuan's belly suddenly began to rise and fall, as if the child inside was talking to its parents with its fists.
Song Tangyin was instantly overjoyed, "Look, Yuan'er, our child likes this name, Yeye, he likes to be called Yeye!"
Chu Yuan touched her belly, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
