Chapter 224



"Don't bother, I believe in my elder brother's ability," Tang Chen had just finished speaking when "Cao Cao" arrived. This story teaches us a lesson: when there is nothing serious, don't talk about others behind their backs, as you will easily be caught.

The moment the eldest brother appeared, Tang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't say bad things about others to Lian Qiao, otherwise, it would be embarrassing. "Hehe, with your words, my energy during this period has not been wasted."

"Oh, didn't you go to look for Little Leo? You're back so soon. Have you eaten?" Tang Chen waved to him to come over while eating. Lian Qiao also stood up and poured him a cup of hot tea.

"I haven't had time to eat yet," said the eldest brother, sitting down without any courtesy and looking at the dishes on the table.

Seeing this, Tang Chen said, "I was just saying that I'd ask Lian Qiao to bring some over to you guys. If you don't mind, you can add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to eat together."

The eldest brother said to Lian Qiao, "One pair is not enough. Xin Zhai is in the back. We need two pairs."

"Gagaga!"

After Lian Qiao had prepared the dishes and the eldest brother had already started eating for a while, Li Xinzhai finally came back panting with bags in his hands. Without waiting for Tang Chen to say hello, Li Xinzhai threw the bag in his hand to Lian Qiao, pulled Tang Chen up from his seat, and looked him up and down. "Strange. What's wrong? It seems that nothing has changed. What happened?"

The eldest brother interrupted, "Look at her small body. She doesn't have much flesh on her body and she's not very tall. The fetus is only three months old, so it's normal for it to be a little smaller."

Li Xinzhai nodded thoughtfully and said, "You have to eat more."

Tang Chen looked at Lin Xinzhai helplessly and said, "Brother, I've been eating as much as Bajie lately!"

When he returned, not only was he intercepted by the eldest brother outside the valley, but he also heard this very disturbing news. To be honest, he was completely unprepared. He had finally bought all the gifts in the valley, but the eldest brother said he was hungry and ran back without helping him.

Of course, none of this mattered. What mattered was this big fool in front of him: "Look at you, ah, giving birth is so scary, I'm afraid you can't bear it, and with the current medical conditions..."

Seeing Lin Xinzhai about to ramble on about something else, Tang Chen quickly stopped him, saying, "Stop, stop. Can't you just hope for my well-being? Didn't Shuyi give birth to Xiao Shuang'er safely? What's there to be afraid of? At most, I can just grit my teeth and walk around the gates of hell and come back."

"It's so easy for you to say that. If anything happens to you, I..." Mo Yu heard that Li Xinzhai was too excited and spoke without restraint, so he coughed a few times and signaled him to calm down.

Although Li Xinzhai received his signal, it was obvious that he was not in a good mood. "If you are sick, take medicine. Don't cough nonsense. What if you infect the pregnant woman?"

Mo Yu put down his bowl and chopsticks helplessly, and took off Li Xinzhai's hand that was on Tang Chen's waist: "Okay, okay, don't cough. Uncle Black Crow, the pregnant woman hasn't finished her meal yet. If you have anything to say, let's talk after you're full, okay?"

Li Xinzhai rolled his eyes at him and took back the packages he had just thrown to Lian Qiao. "I've been out for a while, and I haven't had much time to buy you any gifts. Please accept these for what they are worth. I'll make up for it later."

After saying that, he looked up again, not knowing whether he was talking to Tang Chen or to comfort himself: "Ah, I still can't believe it. You are still a child yourself, how can you become a mother!"

After Tang Chen pushed him onto the stool, he picked up some food for him and said, "Brother, let's be honest. I'm already in my twenties, not young anymore. If it were someone else, their children would be old enough to help with cooking."

Yes, she has been married for quite some time, and having a child is a normal thing, and it's not his. He is getting anxious and angry here, but it is not in accordance with etiquette: "...Forget it, I won't say it anymore. If you get scared if I say too much, Wang Yanzhou will strangle me to death."

Tang Chen said with a smile, "It's good that you know. By the way, what secret mission are you going on this time? Can you tell me a little bit?"

Li Xinzhai and the eldest brother exchanged a glance, then simply smiled and, after saying something about military secrets, began to eat their meal seriously. Tang Chen saw that the way he ate looked like he had just returned from a disaster, and as he watched, he forgot about the question he had just asked.

After quickly clearing the food from the table, Lin Xinzhai sat down to catch his breath, stood up and stretched a little, then prepared to go back to the military camp to help.

Although he didn't want to get involved in the affairs of Qingliang Valley, since he had already taken care of it and since Tang Chen was still here, he would help him to the end and send the Buddha to the west. Things should be done from beginning to end.

"I've rested enough, and it's time to go help. Big Brother will take good care of you, so don't worry."

Tang Chen smiled at the eldest brother and said, "If I hadn't had his careful care during this period, I'm afraid I would have been exposed long ago."

"No, I don't want to do it either. You forced me to do it. I'm going to boil medicine for you. I'll leave first." After saying that, Mo Yu helped Lian Qiao clean up the dishes and left.

After Tang Chen complained to Li Xinzhai about the bitter and unpleasant pregnancy-preserving medicine, Little Li immediately clapped his hands and said, "That's easy. I'll have Senior Brother cook for you some delicious medicinal dishes some other day."

Tang Chen was slightly stunned: "Doesn't he know how to cook?"

Li Xinzhai patted his chest and said, "Who said that? Everything else is fine, but his craftsmanship is impeccable."

Tang Chen looked at Li Xinzhai's confident expression, and after pondering what the two had said, he suddenly realized: "...So that's how it is!"

…After she stopped deliberately concealing the news of Tang Chen's pregnancy, it wasn't as widely known as she had previously suspected. Aside from the servants in the palace, those close to Tang Chen, and those Wang Yanzhou completely trusted, they believed that no one else should know.

Wang Ruo and his companions, who were settling down peacefully on Shouyang Mountain outside the capital, learned the news that their niece-in-law, who lived thousands of miles away, was pregnant at almost the same time as Wang Yanzhou.

When the master came to announce the good news, he was so excited that Wang Ruo thought for a moment that he was going to get married, or that Yaochen and Xihe had finally gotten together thanks to their efforts.

After being interrupted time and time again, the gentleman calmed down, even feeling a little irritated. Wang Ruo coughed dryly and said a little embarrassedly, "Go ahead, I'm listening. I'll let you finish this time."
