Chapter 341 Vicious, Another Happy Event

The people in the Shen family were all delighted because of Li's pregnancy. The gloomy atmosphere caused by Shen Zian and Su Zhi being called in to reprimand and Sun making Li so angry that she almost fainted was immediately swept away. However, Shen Zigui, Chunyue and others still knew about Sun's behavior, and they immediately glared at her.

"Mom, let's go! We fainted when we got here because of anger. Fortunately, you are strong, otherwise the little brother in your belly would be in trouble. Who would compensate us for having a little brother then?"

Chunyue said with a stern face that she would help her mother in the future. She was older and naturally understood the importance of a son to her family. Not to mention her parents, even her sisters, if they had a brother, they would have someone to rely on in the future. Although there were many uncles and cousins, they were still more closely related and were not born from the same womb. She still wanted a brother born from her mother. Now that she finally had hope, she was no less happy than her parents.

Chuncao said at the side: "Uncle San and Aunt San will definitely want to compensate Silang and Wulang! I don't want them! They always steal my food and toys!"

Shen Ziping and Sun's faces suddenly became very interesting. Everyone knew that they wanted to pass their son to the second wife. Now that a little girl said it, and she was so disgusted, they really lost face. If it were in the past, they could still refute it, because the second wife didn't have a son at that time, they would still be proud of it, but now someone is pregnant with another baby, it is very likely to be a son. Chuncao's words were purely a slap in their faces. She was laughing at their wishful thinking that failed.

Chunyun added fuel to the fire. She nodded and said, "I don't want them. They are dirty, lazy and bad! I want my own brother!"

Sanlang said from the side: "Who are you talking about? You little girl is asking for trouble!"

"Who do you want to hit?!"

Shen Zigui said unhappily that he had been disappointed with his second brother's family for a long time. They always used the fact that they didn't have a son to hit him, and wanted him to raise a son for them. They wanted to take his property, but they didn't treat his concubine well. This time, Sun almost made Li faint from anger. If Su Zhi hadn't supported her, who knows if something would have happened. He knew that many women lost their children after a fall! Shen Zigui was furious with the second wife.

Sanlang said, "Second uncle, look at Chuncao and Chunyun, how could they treat us like this? Who knows if Second uncle's mother is pregnant with a boy or not, you should not offend us so early. Otherwise, even if you cry and beg us, we will not support you in your old age!"

The reason why people in ancient times valued sons was not only that sons could carry on the family line, but also that they were superstitious. They believed that if they did not have sons, they would not only not have a good end, but also not be able to be reborn. They believed that only boys could break pots for them after death, and the more broken the pots were, the better. This would allow them to be reborn after death. This is why many people wanted sons, and if they did not have sons, they would want to have a son. And the one who broke the pots would naturally get the property of the deceased.

Sanlang's words could be said to be extremely vicious. Not only did he curse his second uncle to be childless, he also threatened him with his afterlife.

As soon as these words came out, not only did the people in the second room look gloomy, but everyone who heard them knew that something was wrong.

Chunyue angrily pointed at Sanlang and cursed: "Okay! Sanlang, what do you mean by that? Is there any nephew like you?! Don't ever say you are my parents' nephew again. We don't have a relative like you in our family!"

Li also heard it. She was originally happy that she was pregnant again, but after hearing what Sanlang said, she began to worry that the baby in her belly was not a son.

Shen Zigui was the most angry person. He pointed at Sanlang and said, "Get out of here! Even if your second aunt gives birth to a girl this time, it's not your turn to throw the pot at me! I won't have a nephew like you anymore! Chunyue's mother, let's go! If you stay any longer, I'll beat you up! Don't scare you!"

Shen Zigui helped Li walk out. When he came in front of Shen Ziping and Sun, he glared at them fiercely, scaring them both so much that they took a step back.

Shen Youfu stood in the main room, listening to the noise outside, his face gloomy, thinking that the third wife really didn't know how to raise a child, look at what kind of child he has become! He also remembered that if it weren't for the third wife's interference, he would not have separated Shen Zian and his wife. What kind of glory would the Shen family be now?

Shen Ziju watched all this and felt that his third brother's family was too unreasonable. He thought that if he became an official in the future, this family would definitely cling to him, and it would be very troublesome for him to catch up with them at that time. He would definitely have to take care of one or two of them, but they were always like this, and it was possible that they would cause him big trouble. He wanted to be an official, and he wanted to reach the highest position, and he didn't want to be implicated because of such a brother.

Thinking of this, Shen Ziju expressed his opinion to Shen Youfu.

Shen Youfu was already angry, and when he heard what Shen Ziju said, he became even angrier.

Neither Shen Ziping nor Sun had expected that after such a commotion, their family would be punished again.

Li was escorted out of the house by a group of people. Someone on the road saw the smiles on their faces and asked about it. Chuncao immediately said that her mother was going to give birth to a younger brother. Many people knew about this along the way and congratulated them. Seeing Shen Zian and Su Zhi also following, they immediately thought that Li was pregnant again, and it must be related to the fourth daughter-in-law of the Shen family. She is really capable and blessed!

Not to mention how happily Shen Zigui and his family returned home, Shen Zian and Su Zhi returned to Fuyuan, and just sat down to rest for a while, someone came to the door.

The Zhang family's butler came in with a servant following behind him, smiling. As soon as he entered the room, he bowed to Shen Zian and Su Zhi, with his waist bent very low, which was much more respectful than usual.

"Master Shen, Madam Shen, our young mistress is pregnant. I'm here to give you the good news!"

Butler Zhang's voice was filled with joy. The Zhang family had a hard time having offspring. Zhang Dafu was the only one born, and this one, Zhang Baozhu, was the same as Zhang Dafu. He was even worse than Zhang Dafu, as he had married more than ten wives for so many years but had not given birth to any children. There was not even one pregnant, which made him a joke for the whole area and a source of worry for the Zhang family. Now there was finally movement, and the young lady of the Zhang family was pregnant. This was a great thing! Others might not know about this good news, but Butler Zhang knew it clearly. This had something to do with Madam Shen in front of him! How could he not curry favor with the couple?

Su Zhi was stunned when she heard this. She thought that good things come in pairs. Her second sister-in-law was pregnant just now, and then she heard that Madam Zhang was pregnant. Could it be that the Goddess of Fertility came on this day to deliver the good news? Or was it that God gave her, a time-traveling woman, a special favor? However, despite the surprise, she was still very happy. Li and Shang were both difficult to conceive like her in her previous life, and now they could finally have their own children. She was happy for them.

"Congratulations. Congratulations. When was the diagnosis made? Is this pregnancy going smoothly?"

Su Zhi asked with a smile.

Steward Zhang smiled and replied, "The young lady is in very good health, and the young master is also very stable. The doctor said that both mother and child are doing well. The young lady is very happy. She said it was all thanks to Madam Shen, and that she was blessed by you. I have prepared a small gift to express my gratitude, and I hope you will accept it."

The waiter following behind Zhang, as well as Liu Jin and Liu Yin who came in with them, were all holding things in their hands. Even Aunt Lan did not come in empty-handed. There were exquisite boxes, satin bundles, and cloth. At first glance, you could tell that this gift was not cheap. It was obvious that the Zhang family was really delighted this time.

Su Zhi said a few polite words and then accepted it without hesitation.

Butler Zhang handed over another letter and said, "This is a letter from my young mistress to Madam Shen. Please take a look."

Su Zhi saw that it was a very elegant letter with elegant orchids on it, and she opened it with a smile. There was a piece of paper filled with words of thanks from Shang to Su Zhi. Finally, she wanted to invite Su Zhi to come over to thank her in person, and she had some other questions to ask.

Su Zhi had originally planned to go to the Zhang family because she had heard some things from Xiao Ping'er. Now that Shang had made an appointment, she thought it was a good opportunity and told Butler Zhang that she would go.

Butler Zhang agreed with a smile, then left in a hurry.

Su Zhi looked at the gifts and raised her eyebrows, thinking that the Zhang family must be very happy this time. The gifts were really generous. They sent six sets of headwear, gold, silver, pearls and jade, exquisitely crafted. A short knife inlaid with jade, an exquisite bow, and ten arrows, which were for Shen Zian. In addition, they sent longevity lock jade pendant bracelets to Xiao Ri and the other two, all in pairs. Six rolls of cloth were also sent, as well as many exquisite small items such as sachets and purses, a box of small silver ingots, a box of small gold ingots, and a silver note of six hundred taels.

Su Zhi thought that she had been making a lot of money these days, either from gifts from others or rewards from the emperor. She was thinking about starting construction in the garden in the spring of next year. She wanted to add more rockery in the garden and build a more exquisite courtyard, connecting it to this quadrangle with a corridor. Then it would be like the buildings in the gardens she had seen before. She was going to live here for the rest of her life, so of course she had to make it more beautiful.

"Wife..."

Shen Zian looked at Su Zhi thinking about something while holding the jewelry and gold and silver, and called her softly.

Su Zhi turned to look at him, her eyes asking him what was wrong.

Shen Zian held her hand and said, "Wife, now everyone calls you the Goddess of Childbirth. When will we have a child? Xiaori and the others are very good, but I also want a child from you, my wife."

Su Zhi blushed. She had never given birth to a child in her past life. Now she felt a little embarrassed when the man she loved asked her this question. However, because she had always longed for a child, she would not avoid this question. There had been a severe drought this year. Although Su Zhi had the spiritual spring and fairy lotus, she was not worried about having a hard life, but she was also worried about disaster victims rioting. She wanted a child, but she would not let the child come at a time when she might be hurt. So she kept calculating the days and deliberately.

"It will happen eventually. We just need to work hard."

Now that the drought is over and life has started as normal, they no longer have to worry about this or that. Su Zhi thought that Shen Zian also wanted a child, so it was time to welcome a little life. Thinking of this, she felt very happy and couldn't help teasing her husband. She couldn't help laughing as she saw his wheat-colored skin become darker because of her words.

Shen Zian looked at his wife, who was smiling like a flower, and hugged her. He put his arm around her shoulders, put his hand on the back of her head, and kissed her deeply.

Butler Zhang came in a carriage, and he had to pass through the streets of Hebian Village. Naturally, many people saw him. Some of them followed him and went up to talk to the driver. The driver of the Zhang family was also very happy, because the young lady was pregnant, and all their servants were rewarded. When he heard someone asking about it, he happily told the situation. After hearing this, everyone was surprised, thinking that the young lady of the Shen family was almost a fairy. Her second sister-in-law Li was just diagnosed with pregnancy, and on the same day, the young lady of the Zhang family was pregnant. If this is not her credit, then whose credit is it? !

No matter how Su Zhi denied that she didn't have the ability to give birth to a child, these pregnant women just had bad health and would be fine after some treatment. She only cured people's health, not all women who couldn't have children. Others didn't believe it, but Su Zhi's fortune and medical skills were completely famous.

Butler Zhang also heard what the coachman said. He was so surprised that he went back and told Zhang Dafu about it. Zhang Dafu then became even more convinced that it was Su Zhi's credit that his family had a successor.

As soon as Su Zhi arrived at the Zhang family, she was welcomed with unprecedented warmth. First, Zhang Dafu thanked her, and then Zhang Baozhu came. Both father and son were smiling, especially Zhang Baozhu. He was almost thirty years old and was finally going to have a child. He finally shut up those who were laughing at him and calling him useless. He was in a good mood, and the voices he spoke to Shen Zian and Su Zhi were a pitch higher than usual.

Su Zhi looked at Zhang Baozhu's smile and thought to herself that if Aunt Yue saw him like this, she would be very upset. When she thought of this, Su Zhi felt a little comfortable. She thought that Aunt Yue wanted to use her, but she was dreaming!

Shen Zian stayed to talk to the Zhang father and son, while Su Zhi was taken by her maid to see Shang.

On the way, Su Zhi met Aunt Yue. Aunt Yue was still as charming as ever, wearing a rice-red top and a white skirt. Her face looked a little haggard, but she looked like a pear blossom beaten by wind and rain, which made people feel even more moved and distressed.

Su Zhi thought that the real Zhao Xiaomei was also an extraordinary person. She once worried that if she performed too well under her name, people would doubt whether a woman who grew up in a nunnery was too outrageous. But now she thought that she was not that outrageous. Isn't this Zhao Xiaomei quite extraordinary? If she was not a time traveler, she would really have to admit defeat. (
