He Jiuniang grabbed his hand and said, "Calm down, calm down!"
The arrow was on the bowstring; Lu Baichuan had been waiting for a very long time and was ready to have a feast tonight.
So, completely ignoring his wife's refusal, he rolled over and pinned her down, breathing heavily in her ear, and said, "Wife, I want..."
"No, you don't want to!"
He Jiuniang quickly covered his mouth and said, "Wait a few more days, I'm on my period!"
"Huh? What auntie?"
Lu Baichuan was a little confused. Why bring up his period at this time?
He Jiuniang took a deep breath: "I'm getting my period! I'm getting my period!"
Lu Baichuan froze, his body instantly stiffening as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over him from head to toe.
When did his wife start menstruating? How come he didn't know?
I had heard that women suffer a lot during their menstrual period. He not only didn't know when his wife was menstruating, but he also made her worry about these things.
He took a few deep breaths against He Jiuniang's chest to suppress the rising heat, then carefully got up and asked, "Did I hurt you? Does your stomach hurt?"
He Jiuniang hadn't expected him to react this way; she thought he would show signs of annoyance. Seeing him like this, He Jiuniang couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
"It doesn't hurt, it will be fine in a few days."
It will hurt when you first arrive. The original owner suffered when she was young, which damaged her body and caused her to have a cold uterus. When the pain was severe, it could be half a life-threatening.
Therefore, she was extremely shocked that the original owner and Lu Baichuan were able to have a son in one fell swoop!
Fortunately, He Jiuniang had been taking care of her health, and she is much better now.
"Then get some rest."
He lay back down properly, and the tension from before was completely gone.
He Jiuniang gave him a thumbs up: "Not bad, you have great patience!"
Lu Baichuan: ...
"At this time, I hope you can sleep peacefully."
"OK!"
He Jiuniang quickly turned over, closed her eyes, and went to sleep.
In the darkness, Lu Baichuan let out a soft sigh.
I thought everything would be fine after moving back to the master bedroom, but I never expected...
The road ahead is long and arduous!
He Jiuniang knew that certain things were bound to happen after this, otherwise... (cough cough, otherwise some readers would abandon the story!)
So, after that day, she secretly began to prepare.
Jiayuan Pavilion doesn't just sell ready-made clothes; it also has all sorts of interesting intimate apparel.
Although her son is already so old, this is still He Jiu Niang's first time in a real sense, so naturally she has to take it seriously.
As a new-era human from another world, she wants to broaden the horizons of Lu Baichuan, an ancient man!
Lu Baichuan has been investigating the cheating case these past few days, leaving early and returning late. He doesn't know what she's up to. Moreover, after she got her period, she became very quiet and abstinent. When they sleep at night, he just holds her gently and doesn't do anything inappropriate.
But when he returned that evening, he told He Jiuniang, "Qian Xing has divorced his first wife."
"Oh? What tricks did that woman use this time?"
He Jiuniang immediately put on a gossipy face, her eyes sparkling.
"No, it was the first wife who agreed on her own initiative."
He Jiuniang recalled the words she had deliberately said during the banquet. It seemed that Madam Qian had taken it to heart and wasn't too stupid after all.
"So, is he planning to happily marry his new wife?"
"Almost, the date is set, and they even invited me."
Lu Baichuan felt a bit unlucky. This prefect didn't learn anything good and insisted on making so many jokes. He even invited him to a wedding banquet. Wasn't he just asking for bad luck?
"Alright then, we can also go and see what kind of background that new lady has. I always feel that she is a young girl from a wealthy family, and it is not simple for her to be interested in Qian Xing. But if it is just to help her brother cheat, then there is no need to make such a big sacrifice."
To be honest, He Jiuniang really enjoys banquets, but such banquets always involve a lot of gifts. She'll have to bring all the kids in the family to make it worthwhile!
Lu Baichuan nodded and said, "Yes, Lou Chong went to investigate, and things are pretty much as we guessed. Qian Xing and his brother-in-law are indeed problematic. In the days leading up to the imperial examination, Qian Xing was running to the government office every day. Maybe he was stealing exam questions at that time. It's just that we came back late and couldn't find much evidence for the time being. We can only take it one step at a time."
"Well, no rush. The results will be out soon anyway. We'll just have to see if Qian Xing's brother-in-law makes the list."
He Jiuniang wasn't particularly interested in her brother-in-law Qian Xing, but she felt indignant on Kang Xiucai's behalf because she thought he had been unfairly blamed and his exam performance had been affected. So she paid more attention to him.
“Oh, by the way,” Lu Baichuan continued, “the former Mrs. Qian said that she would like to visit you in a few days to thank you after she has dealt with these trivial matters.”
"Thank me?"
He Jiuniang blinked; she had never seen someone thank someone after a divorce.
What's this all about?
I feel so embarrassed!
"Alright, I'll talk to her properly later. She'll have a lot of good things to do after leaving that scumbag!"
He Jiuniang let out a breath, feeling very relaxed and happy.
Although she didn't particularly like the former Mrs. Qian, putting all that aside, helping a fallen woman escape from a scumbag man was truly fulfilling!
Lu Baichuan found her proud and arrogant little face amusing.
This was the first time he had ever heard of someone being blessed after a divorce.
However, this isn't entirely wrong. If Qian Xing really was involved in this case, then Mrs. Qian's decision to divorce him now is indeed a wise one.
"What are you standing there for? It's so late, go wash up and go to bed!"
He Jiuniang urged him on and then went to lie down first.
Lu Baichuan had been living a life of quiet celibacy these past few days and hadn't noticed anything amiss. He simply nodded upon hearing this, intending to take a bath and go to sleep, unaware of all the preparations He Jiuniang had made for him.
