Chapter 498 Pregnancy
Song Liyun's thundering measures left all the tribes in tatters.
Simon, the leader who had been shouting so loudly, suddenly became silent and even disappeared.
When doing these things, Song Liyun did not hide anything from anyone. The appearance of 5,000 troops for just one night calmed the restless hearts inside and outside Mida City.
Everyone knew what happened, yet it seemed as if nothing had happened.
The sun rises and sets in the Mida Valley, cattle, sheep and horses roam leisurely, and business in the city continues as usual.
After Zhao Tingduo left, a month was about to pass when news finally arrived.
Song Liyun had just finished drinking the milk tea brought by Madam Yun when she received a letter delivered by Jian Fangtong personally.
"Madam, the city lord has won a victory and is now assisting in dealing with Pingliang Fort."
Jian Fangtong was in a good mood. He had just received news that the Di tribe soldiers were surrounded and suppressed by the Zhenbei Army in the Wu Dynasty. They wanted to withdraw, but were beaten back by the city lord and his troops.
Attacked from both sides, with no way to retreat, the Di soldiers have now entered the mountains of Wu Dynasty and are being persuaded to surrender.
Song Liyun read the letter and found that Zhao Tingduo said the same thing.
Just explain it in more detail.
After arriving at Pingliang Fort, he fought directly with the Di soldiers stationed there.
Both sides were cavalry and their horsemanship was comparable, but the Mida army was well equipped with armor and arrows. Wang Tingdi's soldiers were unable to resist at all and collapsed at the first blow, abandoning Pingliang Fort and retreating.
However, it is now the end of summer, and there is abundant vegetation in the mountains of Wuchao, grain in the fields, and no shortage of fodder for the war horses. It may take some time for Wang Tingdi's soldiers to surrender.
Being able to capture thousands of Di soldiers can also solve the mistake of Zhao Tinglei in Hecheng.
Song Liyun couldn't help but frown slightly, feeling that something was wrong.
But she knew nothing about these things on the battlefield, and the Zhao brothers were already experienced, so she didn't need to worry.
Song Liyun touched her chest and felt a little uncomfortable.
Maybe I was too tired some time ago!
Song Liyun fell asleep as soon as she lay down, and even Madam Lian Yun didn't wake her up when she brought her some snacks!
Over the next few days, she became increasingly sleepy. Finally, when she became nauseous and vomited after drinking a bowl of fish soup, Madam Yun asked in surprise, "Madam, could it be that you are pregnant?"
Song Liyun touched her belly, also a little doubtful: "When will my little day come?"
Her menstrual period has always been irregular, and it is usually Madam Yun who helps her remember it.
Madam Yun counted on her fingers: "The last time Madam was here was the month when the eldest young master and his family came. The eldest grandmother made medicine for you to drink..."
Song Liyun paused in her heart: After her sister-in-law Yang Hua came, she supervised her to drink the medicine every day for the first month. At that time, with her brother and sister-in-law around, she was in a good mood, so she drank the medicine obediently.
It was only in the second month that I secretly didn't drink much because I was annoyed.
The same goes for menstruation. It didn’t come in the second month, and I thought it was delayed again. Could I really be pregnant?
Madam Yun was so happy that she kept calling the maid to serve tea and water, and then went to invite Wan Youyou and Mr. Yu.
The two older maids, Biqi and Yurui, hurried over to serve.
Madam Yun was pacing around the room, wanting to call the doctor who ran the clinic in the city over, but Song Liyun stopped her, "Aunt Yun, I'm not ill. I can just have Youyou and Old Yu feel my pulse. Don't make a big fuss!"
Wan Youyou is a talented woman who has read a lot of books, and Old Yu is also a know-it-all. They both know about some common diseases. They just need to confirm whether they are pregnant, and there is no need to prescribe any medicine.
Wan Youyou and Yu Lao quickly rushed over from the research institute.
Wan Youyou's face was full of smiles, her eyes bright, "Young Madam, are you really pregnant?"
Song Liyun rolled her eyes at her: "I don't know yet, isn't that why I want you to come over and take my pulse!"
Wan Youyou said happily: "Looking at how haggard you look, I thought the young master had passed away. You were suffering from lovesickness, but now it seems that you must be pregnant!"
Song Liyun was speechless and rolled her eyes at her: "Don't you miss Abu?"
Abu followed Zhao Tingduo to the battle, which made people worry as well.
Wan Youyou smiled and said, "Abu doesn't think about me. He only thinks about how to achieve success."
After she married Abu, she came to Mida City. Here, without any elders, she was free and unrestrained. She also became good friends with Song Liyun, so she no longer concealed her true nature and became more and more open.
Old Yu brought a pulse pillow and asked Song Liyun to sit down and take his pulse carefully.
After touching her left hand and then her right hand, he confirmed it again and again before smiling and saying, "Congratulations, Madam. You are indeed pregnant, but the pregnancy is unstable and you still need to rest and recuperate!"
Wan Youyou also stepped forward to take his pulse, and felt that it was like a rolling ball, which was a true pulse of happiness.
This news soon spread to Fang Zheng, Lao Qian and a few others.
Everyone couldn't help but feel happy.
The master of Mida City has been married for four years and has not given birth yet. It would be a lie to say that there is no rush.
Song Liyun was already in her early twenties, and Zhao Tingduo was 25 years old and still childless. Madam Wu Ya had asked about it secretly several times.
Now we are finally going to have a little master, but unfortunately the young master is out on a military expedition and did not get the news first.
Song Liyun is now two months pregnant and must stay in bed to protect the fetus. Old Yu also prescribed some medicine and found the medicine in the warehouse of the City Lord's Mansion.
Under the supervision of Madam Yun, several maids were responsible for Song Liyun's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and they also had to make clothes for the children in their free time.
Old Yu took the initiative to keep secret the fact that the city lord's wife was pregnant.
The current situation is special. Although Mida City appears calm on the surface, no one knows who will take action.
It’s better to keep this secret for now. Only a few people around Song Liyun know about it now.
Everything will have to wait until the city lord comes back, or at least until the city lord's wife is pregnant.
However, such news can be hidden from others, so it still needs to be told to Madam Wu Ya.
Shitou has been in charge of miscellaneous affairs in the City Lord's Mansion and is also a person trusted by Song Liyun.
He received the task of delivering a letter back to Kala Mountain. Without bringing more people with him, he set off with his adoptive father Zhao San.
Although Song Liyun's pregnancy was not spread, Fang Zheng and others still became nervous and secretly upgraded the patrols inside and outside the city.
The guards of the Urban Management Bureau began to be on duty at the City Lord's Mansion, guarding the entire courtyard tightly. The gate of the mansion, which was originally prohibited from entering and leaving, was naturally closed to visitors.
Outside the city, a temporary camp of ten people was built by each tribe.
There were more than a hundred people in total. Because Zhao Tingduo had already taken away the best warriors from these tribes, the quality of the remaining ones was also uneven.
It is always better to have someone than no one. Fang Zheng did not despise him and kept him outside the city to intensify his training in case of emergency.
The autumn wind on the grassland came quickly, and the news that Shi Tou had sent to the Wuda tribe had not yet returned.
It is time to harvest the crops in the fields along the river, and the annual slaughtering season has also begun.
It is now the fourth year since the establishment of Mida City. The number of merchant caravans coming from Hecheng has increased sharply, all of them coming to buy freshly slaughtered beef and mutton.
Song Liyun rested for more than ten days and felt fine. It was the busiest time of the year in Mida City, and she couldn't lie down all the time, so she went out to preside over various affairs.
Lin Qingyuan also came with the caravan, bringing quite a few people with him.
This time he needed to deliver enough supplies for the entire winter and also take away a batch of coal.
Apart from being used in iron-making blast furnaces, only the Lin and Wan families can purchase the coal in Mida City.
These are military supplies and are not for sale.
Lin Qingyuan burst into laughter the moment he saw Song Liyun: "I heard that the Third Young Master has only been gone for two months, how come you've lost so much weight? It's really hard to bear missing you!"
Song Liyun is suffering from severe morning sickness now and can only drink porridge every day.
Hearing Lin Qingyuan's teasing, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at him: "You know that and still say that, don't you want coal and pig iron anymore?"
