Xu Minghui was stunned for a moment and couldn't react for a long time.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family said quickly: "Minghui, you are stupid! Thank the doctor quickly!"

She finally reacted, her eyes turned red, and she choked up and said, "I'm so excited. Doctor, did you make the right call?"

The old doctor smiled and said, "I have been a doctor for many years. If I can't get the date right this month, I should go back to the countryside to farm!"

"Great, great! Hurry... there's a big reward!"

The maid beside her handed over a heavy purse. The eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family looked at it and smiled. That's good! The old doctor took it and thanked him. Then he said, "But your pregnancy is not very good. You have to pay attention!"

"Ah?!" Xu Minghui was shocked. "How could it be?"

"I can't tell you the reason yet. I just feel that you have excessive gallbladder fire, and your stomach and lung meridians are weak. Your liver blood and palace blood are insufficient. Your kidney qi is also deficient..."

The doctor also found something wrong last time, but it was that kind of problem, and it was impossible to determine whether it was a personal problem or an external force. There were many secrets in the mansion, and even if you were sure, you couldn't say too much, let alone something that you had no evidence.

"In short, you have to take good care of it."

"Then what kind of medicine should we take to regulate our condition?" The aunt and sister-in-law were frightened when they heard what the doctor said was so serious.

"In my opinion, you don't need to take any medicine now. The main thing is to have an open mind and think about happy things. You don't need to eat too much. You can go to the suburbs of Beijing to find some hot spring vegetables, and then add some eggs, meat and coarse grains. Eat more yams, walnuts, etc.... With these, it's good enough! Don't touch those tonic herbs, especially ginseng and deer antlers! Don't eat bird's nests if you can. When the weather is good, walk around in the yard more often to nourish your energy. It shouldn't be a big problem."

"Please prescribe some medicine!" Xu Minghui refused to give up.

"All medicines are poisonous. It's not easy to cure all the symptoms at once. I think it's better to take care of it as mentioned above. If there is no special discomfort, wait for half a month and I will come to take a look. If it still doesn't work, then you can use medicine."

Xu Minghui was a little hesitant, but seeing the doctor's firm attitude, she didn't say anything else.

After the doctor left, the aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other and smiled.

"This time, I can finally hold my head high! Humph! Let them see that the Qi family still has to look up to me!" Xu Minghui was so proud!

Mrs. Xu was very happy: "That's right! When I arrived, I heard that Qi Si's family was pregnant, but what does it matter? The son of a bastard, humph, it's not his turn!"

"That's right! But my mother-in-law is really unreasonable. I heard that she gave me jewelry and silver!"

"Hmph! Wait until you give birth to her, then don't let her see her, keep your distance from her, and make her angry to death! Sister, I think you'd better not tell anyone else about this news!"

"Why?!" Xu Minghui was thinking about how to make a stunning appearance and spread the news of Zhang Moqing's pregnancy.

"One is that the family situation is complicated. Even your mother-in-law may not be interested in this grandson, let alone others?"

Xu Minghui didn't like what she said: "Although I don't care about her being rare, I can't do as you say! After all, she is my grandson! Who wouldn't be rare?"

"Just listen to me! At the beginning, you used Qi Xiao to control her, wasn't it quite easy? If Qi Xiao hadn't listened to someone's instigation later, she would still be feeling uncomfortable!"

"Hmph!" Xu Minghui snorted.

"So, the sudden birth of a grandson is such a shock! Moreover, even if that old lady treats you well, she also has her own grandchildren. She definitely hopes that... Zhu will give birth to the eldest great-grandson for the Qi family! No matter how much he loves your Qi Xiao, he still has to rank behind Qi Yue!"

Xu Minghui thought for a moment and said, "You are right. But, after all, we are also the eldest son and grandson of the eldest son's family!"

"That's what I said...but what if someone has bad intentions? Knowing that you are a boy, they want to harm you..."

"How can I say that? My grandson's wives have come home one by one. Is Wen Yu easy to mess with? Besides, apart from other things, the Marquis has concubines, but he only has a bastard son who never comes home. Can't those concubines give birth..."

She clearly pointed out that the old lady had done something fishy.

"When you say that, I feel so panicked!" Xu Minghui felt like a child holding gold ingots in a busy street!

"Don't panic. You should keep a low profile and pretend you don't know what's going on. Then, be careful in every aspect. When you are about to give birth, I will bring two midwives to personally take charge and watch over the whole process. Nothing will go wrong."

"Sister-in-law..." Xu Minghui was a little excited: "At the critical moment, it still has to be my family!"

"Isn't it? I sincerely hope that you are well. When you give birth to a son and become powerful in the Qi family, you can help your brother!"

This is true! Xu Minghui is content with having a son, and she likes her sister-in-law much more than before: "My brother and sister-in-law and I have always been in a mutually supportive relationship. What you said makes sense. They think I am a flamboyant person. If it was a son, they would definitely shout about it so that everyone in the yard would know. This time, I have to keep it a secret! They thought it was another girl. When the eldest son is born, they will be blinded by him!"

The aunt and the sister-in-law laughed at each other.

So, from this moment on, Xu became extremely low-key.

The next day, the fifteenth, was the day to pay respects to the Tan family. Except for Zhang Moqing, everyone came.

Tan felt annoyed when she looked at Zhu and Wang again. She suppressed her anger for a long time before she calmed down. She smiled and told everyone the news about Zhang Moqing: "It's almost the New Year, and I got such good news again! I woke up laughing several times last night. The third brother's family and the fifth brother's wife, now it's up to you two!"

She scolded, half seriously, half jokingly.

Zhu blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

Wen Yu was also a little embarrassed and lowered her head without saying anything.

Today, Xu was unusually silent and quiet, but her shining eyes and the corners of her mouth that were always trying to be suppressed still revealed a little bit of the joy in her heart.

Of course, this would not be hidden from Tan and Wen Yu.

After everyone left, "She is pregnant with a son!" Tan said to herself.

If she hadn't been pretending to be a charitable old lady, the cup in her hand would have flown away. Why hasn't there been any good news recently?

According to her previous plans, she would not care about this matter at all, and it had little to do with what she was planning.

But now, there are so many things going on! Moreover, if Xu Minghui came out to show off, she would be able to understand the development of the situation. But this bitch is silent... what is she doing? It seems that her delivery date is before that incident...

It's awkward, so fucking awkward! "She's pregnant with a boy." Wen Yu was also muttering to Madam Qi on the way back.

Madam Qi felt ashamed for not being too happy: "People say that if you love someone, you love his family too. I am blaming my daughter-in-law and grandson... I can't even say I am happy! If she had a son, who knows what he would become? But if I take him away and take care of him myself, wouldn't I be the same as Tan?"

"Why do you think so much? My eldest brother has understood a lot recently. He will also be responsible for taking care of his son in the future! Besides, a bastard like Duanmu Hui can become a useful person in the army. Why can't we? The most important thing now is that the Qi family army cannot let go!"

"You little girl!" Madam Qi sighed, "This is not easy. You know? Qi Youduan is known as: the scholar in the army. A Confucian general. It means he has literary talent and strategy! As the name suggests, a Confucian general has a very good demeanor!"

Wen Yu disagreed, thinking: He is the top scholar in the army! Tsk! What kind of general do you love! If the news is correct, even if he is General Jin, I can bring him down!

Poor Qi Youduan, he hasn't even come back yet, and Li Qun and Wen Yu are already waiting for him with their knives sharpened.
