Based on the pulse diagnosis results from Sheng Yi and his grandson, they deduced that Zhu Qinghao most likely became pregnant on her wedding night.
For Old Master Sheng, this was truly an unexpected and exhilarating event, as the Sheng family had always faced difficulties in having offspring.
It is said that going back several generations, it was only with great difficulty that a single son could inherit the bloodline. By the time of Sheng Yi, it had been five generations of single-line inheritance.
Both Sheng Yi's grandmother and Sheng Yi's mother had been married for several years before they became pregnant.
This is why Zhu Huaichuan was able to so readily abandon the idea of marrying into the Sheng family when he learned that Zhu Qinghao's health was poor and might not be curable.
The family already only has this one son, and Zhu Qinghao is a sickly person who is unlikely to be able to have children. If she marries into the family, wouldn't that be a disaster for them?
At the time, he thought that Zhu Qinghao and Sheng Yi were both young and probably didn't have any particular feelings for each other. Besides, the engagement was not a big deal.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Yi had already set his sights on Zhu Qinghao, and even had the obsession to marry no one but her, even after learning that Zhu Qinghao had re-engaged.
Sheng Bojian was also disappointed when he first heard the news, but he also understood why Zhu Huaichuan stopped mentioning the verbal marriage agreement between the two families.
On the one hand, he wanted his family to have descendants who would carry on their ancestral medical skills, and he was also unwilling to disappoint his old friend's good intentions; on the other hand, he felt that the relationship between the two younger generations was truly rare, and it would be a pity if it were to end like this.
At the time, he didn't know that his grandson had long been interested in the other person; he was torn between these two conflicting feelings for several years.
It wasn't until Sheng Yi heard from somewhere that Zhu Qinghao was going to marry someone else and came to make a scene that he finally understood.
But by then, even though he understood that the happiness of the two young people was more important, it was too late.
He just didn't expect that his grandson would never give up, and even declared in front of him that if the person he was to marry was not Zhu Qinghao, he would rather not get married at all.
For some reason, he didn't object much at the time.
He had prepared himself for the Sheng family to fall into Sheng Yi's hands, but he never expected that Heaven would send Zhu Qinghao back to them, and now she is pregnant with a child right after getting married.
How could this possibly displease the old man? He even wished he could announce it nationwide with gongs and drums, letting everyone know how happy he was.
Since that's not an option, getting drunk with old friends is a good alternative.
Especially when he's drunk, he might even dream about his wife, and then he can tell her that his granddaughter-in-law really did bring back good news and their eldest grandson...
Putting aside Sheng Bojian's excitement, the two of them hadn't deliberately used contraception for this very reason, thinking it was better to let nature take its course in this area.
Unexpectedly, this happened all too naturally.
It's only been less than two months since they got married, but Zhu Qinghao is already more than a month and a half pregnant!
Sheng Yi also found it incredible, yet it also seemed perfectly logical. After all, the two of them had drunk quite a bit of spiritual spring water, so it wasn't strange that they had good physiques.
However, upon suddenly learning that he was going to be a father, he was no less excited than Zhu Qinghao, and perhaps even more worried about her and their child, especially Zhu Qinghao.
After all, he himself is a doctor and knows the series of discomforts that pregnancy may bring, as well as the hardships and dangers in the process of pregnancy.
In the past, he could simply be a doctor with empathy in the hospital, but now it's different; it's a treasure he cherishes as his life.
"Yes, me too. I'm very excited. I'll have to work hard for a long time to come."
So if you're ever unhappy or uncomfortable in any way, please tell me, okay? I want to share your burden.
