Chapter 556: Deng Xiucai
Zhulan was speechless. She had only said it was a possibility but had not said for sure. If she was not pregnant, wouldn't it be just a false alarm?
And be sure not to fall. If you fall, no, Su Xuan just ran away, ouch, be sure not to get hurt. Zhulan was panicking, and finally couldn't help but took the cloak and put it on, and hurried to the fourth courtyard. She couldn't wait any longer.
The woman behind Su Xuan was panting and begging, "County Master, slow down, slow down, don't stretch yourself."
Su Xuan responded with her mouth, but her feet were not slow. She was going to be a mother. She returned to the yard with a smile on her face. As soon as she entered the house, she said, "Dad, you are going to be a father."
Changzhi didn't hear it, and continued to copy the book attentively, muttering to himself, "Good article, good article."
Su Xuan's face darkened, and her joy disappeared instantly. She pinched Chang Zhi's ears vigorously and took a deep breath, "You are going to be a father."
Changzhi covered his ears with his hands, which hurt. When he came to his senses, he remembered what he heard and his eyes widened. "I'm going to be a father?"
Su Xuan was now a little happy, "Yes, you are going to be a father."
Chang Zhi picked up Su Xuan and said, "Haha, my efforts have not been in vain. It's worth my hard work."
Now that the child is here, his wife's attention will be all on the child from now on. His confiscated books can be returned, which is exciting to think about.
Su Xuan blushed, but in her heart she wanted to strangle Chang Zhi to death. The maid and the old woman were all here, and she didn't even have the face to face it.
The women really didn't pay attention to this. "Oh, put it down, put it down."
Chang Zhi then put his wife down and said, "Yes, yes, be careful. In the future, my wife can't jump up at every turn, and can't chase me at every turn. And you must be calm."
Su Xuan was quite moved at first, but she quickly came to her senses and squinted her eyes, "Zhou Changzhi, you didn't plan to have a child, did you?"
Chang Zhi laughed dryly, "No way."
Su Xuan didn't miss the joy in Chang Zhi's eyes. She gritted her teeth, damn, I was tricked. "Zhou Chang Zhi, you are very good."
Changzhi wanted to run, but unfortunately he ran into Mrs. Song when he went out. Mrs. Song was good at martial arts, so she grabbed the fourth master and went into the house. She was relieved to see that the county lord was fine, "County lord, we still need to ask a doctor to diagnose your pulse to be accurate."
Su Xuan's anger subsided. Yes, her mother-in-law said it was only a possibility. "Yes, yes, we still need to see a doctor."
Mrs. Song retreated, and just as she left the yard, she saw the mistress sitting on the ground. She ran over quickly, "Madam, where did you fall?"
Zhulan's ankle hurt so much that she hissed. Suxuan was fine, but she fell down. "I think I sprained my ankle."
But please don't break any bones, wuwu, I shouldn't have followed you out if I had known.
Changzhi and Suxuan heard Mrs. Song's shout and rushed out. Changzhi only had two words in his mind: "It's over." Mother fell down and father would definitely punish him when he came back. "Mother, where are you hurt?"
Su Xuan was confused and felt uneasy. Her mother-in-law must have followed her because she was worried about her. "Mom."
Zhulan looked at the frightened Changzhi and Suxuan and endured the pain, "It's okay, I just twisted my ankle."
Chang Zhi saw his mother leaning on Mrs. Song and hurriedly said, "Mother, I'll hold you."
Zhu Lan was speechless, "I can't trust you."
She didn't want to be dropped again, as the secondary injury would be more serious.
Changzhi was embarrassed. He really didn't have much strength. His mother had indeed lost a lot of weight, but he still didn't have much strength. "I'll go find my eldest brother."
Su Xuan had already asked the maid behind her to call the doctor. "Mother, this is all my fault. I shouldn't have been so impatient."
Zhu Lan did not blame Su Xuan. She touched Su Xuan's pale face and said, "Mother understands. This child is related to you by blood. Think it through."
Su Xuan was alone, and even if she married Chang Zhi, she would just have a husband. The child in her belly was different, so she was so excited.
Su Xuan's eyes turned red. Her mother-in-law was so kind. It must be her deceased parents who blessed her so that she could marry into the Zhou family. "Mom."
Zhulan smiled again, "A blessing in disguise. Now that I've sprained my foot, I can smoothly withdraw the invitation."
Su Xuan didn't feel comforted, but her eyes became even redder.
Before Li's people arrived, the voice came first, "Mom, mom, where are you hurt?"
Zhulan saw that Li ran faster than the boss and arrived at the place in the blink of an eye. Zhulan felt warm at the same time. Looking at the boss with a wooden face, she couldn't help laughing, "I'm fine, I just twisted my foot, Boss, carry me back."
Li heaved a sigh of relief, "Mom, I'll hold you. I have the strength."
As she spoke, Zhulan was picked up. Zhulan was stunned. It was supposed to be a princess hug, but it was her daughter-in-law who was hugging her!
Li strode towards the main courtyard, saying as she walked, "Mom, you've lost a lot of weight."
Zhulan, "...Isn't it sinking?"
Li shook his head, "It won't sink."
As he spoke, he weighed it.
Zhulan, "........"
Come to think of it, Zhou Shuren had never hugged her like this before!
When we got to the main courtyard, the house was full of people, including our family members. Those who didn't know would think Zhulan was seriously ill. Zhulan was speechless, "Okay, go back, I just sprained my ankle."
It's really not a terminal illness, don't look like you're dying!
Boss Zhou was the first to speak, "I'm the eldest, I'll stay and take care of mom."
I hope I can redeem myself and my dad will give him a gentle hand when he comes back.
Zhou Laoer quickly spoke up, "Mom, please let us wait, otherwise we will feel uneasy."
Chang Lian looked at his mother's feet and thought to himself, it's all over, it's all over, Dad is coming back and he's furious, luckily Chang Zhi is there to support him.
Changzhi wanted to cry the most and was trembling a little. He knew his father would not let him off easily.
Zhulan looked at her sons silently. Should we say that Zhou Shuren succeeded? As the head of the family, she felt sweet at the same time. This was also the result of Zhou Shuren's pampering of her over the years. Zhou Shuren's care made his children care about her more!
The doctor came very quickly. Everyone in the room dared not breathe, waiting for the doctor's diagnosis. The doctor was also very cold. He thought something big had happened in the prefect's family. The whole journey in the carriage almost broke his bones.
The doctor breathed a sigh of relief. "It's nothing serious, just a sprain. It will be fine after a few days of rubbing with medicated oil. However, you need to pay more attention to your feet in the next two days."
In fact, Mrs. Song had already shown it to the Zhou family, but it was a pity that the Zhou family’s children did not trust it.
Zhulan said to the elders, "It's just like what Mrs. Song said. It's really fine. Don't worry."
Boss Zhou and the others were relieved, as long as nothing happened. They were really afraid of Dad. As his power became more and more powerful, they dared not even breathe in front of him.
Zhulan said to the doctor again, "Please check my fourth daughter-in-law's pulse again."
The doctor looked at the county lord and realized, "County lord, please sit down."
Su Xuan sat down nervously, "Excuse me."
In the capital, Zhou Shuren already knew that Yao Zheyu was going back to Jinzhou City with him, and he happily packed a gift for Zhulan.
Jianyan came in and said, "Master, there is a scholar named Deng outside who wants to see you."
Zhou Shuren had a deep memory of Deng Xiucai. "Please come in."
