Chapter 546: Zhang Qingmeng gets engaged, Jiang Yunwan gives birth to a child
Changfu.
"Son, I've arranged a blind date for you at the Nine-Storied Building in half a month..."
Before Mrs. Chang could finish her words, she was interrupted by Chang Huaiqian, "Mother, I have just entered the officialdom for a short time. I must focus on my career. Please don't arrange a blind date for me in the next three years. Even if you arrange one for me, I won't go."
Mrs. Chang said, "This is a girl from a good family."
Chang Huaiqian frowned, somewhat speechless, "Which girl isn't from a good family?"
Mrs. Chang: ...
"She's from a good family, okay? Go and see her in half a month. She's Old Jiang's granddaughter, Cheng Qingmeng, the eldest daughter of the Pingxi Marquisate."
Chang Huaiqian suddenly raised his eyes, surprise flashing in his eyes, "Ms. Cheng?"
"Yes! This is a chance that Mother has finally obtained. That day, several ladies from Prince Rong's mansion were interested in Miss Cheng. You can go and see her. If they don't like you, Mother will arrange another one for you in three years, okay?"
"Okay, mother will arrange it."
"What?" Mrs. Chang was surprised. "You agree to see me?"
For half a month, the Jiang family, Wen Shu, and the people arranged by Song Mingen did not find any problems with Chang Huaiqian. He was indeed a humble gentleman who was consistent in his appearance and heart.
"Madam, the Chang family's backyard is quite quiet. Young Master Chang is very chaste and doesn't have a concubine. There are no cousins or young ladies staying in the mansion. It's just that the third wife is a bit greedy, and her daily expenses are comparable to ours."
Jiang Yunshu asked, "Where are the properties under the Chang family's name?"
Mei Dai said, "Business is good. Madam Chang's sister-in-law is the eldest daughter of the Gu family's branch. She has a good business mind. The Chang family's business was built up under her guidance. In the past, Madam Chang relied on her sister-in-law to connect with the Gu family. It was the big business that the young prince cooperated with the Gu family. Even if they took on a small part of the work, it would still make a lot of money in a year. The Chang family should be able to support our daughter."
"Then send someone to inform my sister-in-law to visit her at the Nine-Storied Tower the day after tomorrow."
On the day of the visit, Cheng Qingmeng felt that Chang Huaiqian must have something else to do and would not come back.
After all, in his previous life, Chang Huaiqian placed public affairs first, just like Prince Mu.
They were able to meet each other because Mrs. Chang pretended to be sick in the teahouse where they were meeting and tricked him into coming.
If Mr. Chang could come to visit today, Madam Chang would definitely coax him over as she did in her previous life.
When Chang Huaiqian and Madam Chang appeared in the Jiuchong Tower together, Cheng Qingmeng was very surprised.
That's not right. Madam Chang should have arrived half an hour earlier, and then Young Master Chang came rushing over.
Why are you here together suddenly?
"Mrs. Chang, you are here, please sit down and have some tea..."
Cheng Qingmeng didn't listen carefully to what Jiang Yunshu, Feng Yingying and Madam Chang said to each other.
He sat quietly with his head down, observing Chang Huaiqian secretly.
She discovered that Chang Huaiqian's outfit today was exactly the same as what he wore when they met in their previous life.
Not only that, his few words were the same as what he said in his previous life.
She wondered if he had also been reborn?
The meeting went smoothly. Mrs. Chang looked at her with eyes full of love as in her previous life, and said the same words as in her previous life, and came to propose marriage a month later.
However, three days later, Chang Huaiqian came to propose marriage with a generous betrothal gift.
Cheng Qingmeng was shocked and certain that Chang Huaiqian must have been reborn just like her.
Chang Huaiqian returned to the Chang Mansion and took Cheng Qingmeng's engagement letter and their marriage certificate and went straight back to his study.
Chang Huaiqian looked through the marriage certificate again and again, with a smile on his face.
This time she won't be branded as a jinx anymore.
There were no annoying people or things, and time flew by in the blink of an eye until the spring when Jiang Yunwan was due to give birth.
"ah……"
Jiang Yunwan's low cry was heard again in the room.
Song Mingen was extremely anxious. The baby had been in labor for half a day but still hadn't been born. He wanted to rush in and make Wanwan suffer.
Xiao Yanxu was guarding outside and was also frightened.
This is his first legitimate grandson.
Others have great-grandsons like him, but he has a grandson.
Gu Yining is praying for Jiang Yunwan in the Buddhist temple at this moment.
She was worried that Jiang Yunwan would have a difficult delivery or something unexpected would happen, and Aye would definitely be very sad.
Half an incense stick later, Cuiyun came in through the door and said, "My Lady, it's born, it's the young prince, both mother and child are safe."
Gu Yining was delighted and bowed to the Bodhisattva three times with sincerity.
"Cuiyun, have Lu An send another batch of rice, flour, grain, and oil to the Huguo Temple, and add another 1,000 taels of incense money so that the abbot can hold a Buddhist ceremony for the young master. We should also send a batch to the Charity House and the Orphanage, and buy the children some new clothes and shoes and socks. Arrange for the court doctor to go to the Orphanage to provide free medical treatment and medicine to the elderly, and set up stalls at the four city gates to distribute porridge for a month..."
The eldest grandson was hard-earned, so she must do more good deeds to accumulate blessings for her grandson.
My eldest grandson must grow up safely and healthily.
Gu Yining rushed to the Phoenix Terrace, where Xiao Yanxu was holding the baby and rocking it slowly.
"Don't give it to me now."
Gu Yining took it and looked at the baby in the cradle, her heart melted.
The little grandson is white, unlike other children who are born with red skin.
The eyelashes are long, narrow and curled, which is very cute.
In the inner room, Song Mingen and Song Yu, father and daughter, surrounded Jiang Yunwan and asked about her well-being.
"Wanwan, you've worked hard. Does it still hurt?"
Jiang Yunwan had just eaten the medicinal porridge Song Yu had made to replenish her qi and blood, and she felt stronger. "It hurt when I gave birth, but now it doesn't hurt anymore. I think I can have a few more children."
Song Mingen's face was filled with fear. "Giving birth is very painful. One is enough. I don't want you to suffer... Sister Yu, is your mother unable to have another child?"
"I'm in good health. Sister Yu just checked me. It will take a year for me to have another baby... Ouch..." Jiang Yunwan suddenly covered her chest.
Song Mingen was very anxious, "Sister Yu, check it out quickly."
"I'm fine. Go get the child. He's hungry."
Song Yu hurriedly ran out of the room, brought the baby in and placed it in Jiang Yunwan's arms.
The next scene made Song Mingen open his eyes wide, and then he turned away with a blushing face.
He learned something new today: this is how babies drink breast milk.
The wet nurse who raised Sister Yu was found from the Wen family. She fed her for a year before she was weaned off and started feeding her with cow's milk.
"Daddy, my brother has eaten and fallen asleep. Look, he looks so cute when he's asleep. He looks just like mommy."
Song Mingen turned around and looked over. His son was sleeping with his little mouth pouting, looking so adorable.
"Hmm, the eyebrows, eyes, and small mouth are like your mother's. The small nose, small chin, and eyelashes are like mine, eh? And the small ears look a bit like you."
Song Yu took a closer look and said, "It's true. I didn't notice it just now. That's great. My brother looks like me. It can only mean that we are destined to be a family."
"We are a family. Sister Yu, you are tired too. Go back and rest. I will accompany your mother."
"You don't have to accompany me. I'm tired and want to sleep." Jiang Yunwan was really tired. She closed her eyes and fell asleep after a breath.
The news that Jiang Yunwan gave birth safely soon reached the palace, "Your Majesty, the little princess gave birth to a son."
