Fu Jin walked up to the Fourth Master with a smile and said, "Master, it's getting late now. Why don't you go to my courtyard and rest for a night?"
Today is New Year's Eve and the master should be resting in her yard, so what she said seemed normal to others.
"No, I still have some things to deal with. Fu Jin, please go back first."
The Fourth Lady's face froze for a moment, then she softened and said, "Yes, then the master must drink some ginger soup when he returns home. It's so cold today, so the master must take care of himself."
"Hmm~"
The Fourth Lady glanced at Wen Mianmian, bowed to the Fourth Master, and went in.
The Fourth Master walked over to Wen Mianmian, took her hand and said, "You should go back and rest early. Don't come to the palace tomorrow. I will take care of the rest."
"What about the children tomorrow?" The children still have to go to the palace tomorrow.
Wen Mianmian was a little worried about letting them enter the palace on their own.
"Don't worry, I will send them to my mother's palace. With my mother here, what are you worried about?"
Wen Mianmian thought so too. With the presence of Concubine De, Wen Mianmian's worries were relieved.
"Well, then the master should go to bed early." Wen Mianmian knew that the Fourth Master would definitely not stay at her place today, so she didn't say anything to persuade him to stay, and was helped in by Nanny Song.
Although the Fourth Master often came to her courtyard, he never stayed overnight on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month when the Lady was supposed to go there.
Wen Mianmian is very self-aware of this.
The next day, the news that Wen Mianmian was pregnant spread throughout the backyard.
When Fu Jin, who was dressing up, heard this, she was so angry that she swept everything on the dressing table to the ground.
"Yes, that's very good."
The servants serving in the room were so frightened when they saw this that they immediately knelt down.
Seeing this, Nanny Li quickly asked the kneeling people to leave.
"I really underestimated Wen." Fu Jin sneered.
More than three months, huh, three months.
The Wen family really kept this secret very secret.
The master didn't believe her either, otherwise how could he hide such an important matter for the Wen family.
Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and the Wen family did not summon the imperial physician, but this morning it was Xiao Shunzi, who was by the master's side, who came over and told him.
It can be seen that the master knew about this matter very early, but he helped Wen to keep it secret at that time.
The master didn't believe her and still thought she would harm Wen's child.
No matter which one it was, Fu Jin felt extremely uncomfortable.
If it were in the past, the master would definitely not be like this. Everything has changed, everything has changed.
"Fujin~" Nanny Chang was a little worried when she saw Fujin like this.
"I'm fine, continue to help me put on makeup." Fu Jin forced herself to remain calm.
Although Nanny Chang and Nanny Li were a little worried, time was running out, so they hurried to help Fu Jin put on makeup.
"By the way, there's a happy event happening in the backyard, and we have to let everyone in the backyard know about it. Please have someone spread the news later."
Although everyone in the backyard would know this news sooner or later, Fu Jin couldn't wait a moment longer.
Nanny Chang responded, "Yes, I will find someone to spread the news in a moment."
Wen Mianmian did not enter the palace because she was pregnant, but the wife and the children still had to go to the palace.
So at this moment, the lights in Zizhu Courtyard were also on, and the children were a little confused when they heard that their mother would not go to the palace with them today.
"Mom, are you feeling unwell?" Xuanxuan's eyes showed worry.
Otherwise, why didn’t my mother come to the palace today?
"You forgot, my mother is pregnant with little brothers and sisters. It's not easy for her to go to the palace every day, so this time you have to go by yourselves. Are you afraid?"
Wen Mianmian touched their little heads and spoke.
The three little ones all shook their heads. Xuanxuan said, "We're not afraid. Mother should have a good rest." Then he looked at Mother's belly and said, "Brother and sister, be good too. Don't make Mother angry."
When Xuanxuan looked at Wen Mianmian's belly with a stern face, his serious look was just like an older brother educating his younger siblings. It was so adorable.
"Yes, if you don't listen, when you come out, I will let Dad punish you by making you stand in the corner facing the wall and reflect on your mistakes, plus do horse stance." Tiantian said fiercely while looking at her mother's belly with her hands on her chubby waist.
Mother had said before that younger brothers and sisters could also hear them talking, so what they said must be heard by the younger brothers and sisters in her belly.
"Yes, if you don't behave, wait until you come out and then you will be punished by running." Chenchen also imitated her sister and spoke in a fierce manner.
These are all things they have tried. Since his younger brother was disobedient, they asked him to try it too to see if he dared to do it again.
At this moment, Wen Mianmian didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that her stomach was kicked.
It is very light and you can hardly feel it unless you feel it carefully.
"Okay, my brothers and sisters have heard it, you all should go quickly, it will be bad if you are late."
"Well, then mother, please go back to the house and rest. We are grown up and can take care of ourselves." Tiantian said sensibly.
"Okay, then you go." Wen Mianmian asked Shancha, Shannai, Wang An, and the two wet nurses to go with her.
Otherwise, Wen Mianmian would really be worried.
After the children left, Nanny Song walked up to her.
"Master, please go inside and rest for a while."
"Well, go in and sleep for a while." Wen Mianmian was indeed a little sleepy after going to bed so late last night and getting up so early today.
"By the way, has anyone talked to the concubine?" Wen Mianmian asked as soon as she sat down.
"I heard that Eunuch Shunzi, who is beside Eunuch Su, just went to talk about it and brought back a message, asking the master not to worry." Nanny Song pulled out the quilt.
Wen Mianmian lay down on it. "That's good, but now that it's been announced, there might be people in the backyard who are restless. Ask the people in the yard to keep an eye on them. Also, don't take meals from the kitchen in the future."
"Just do it in the small kitchen in our yard." Sister Tian's words reminded her that now that she was pregnant, she would definitely become a thorn in the eyes of many people.
After all, she already has three children, and now she is pregnant again. The woman in the backyard will definitely not be able to hold back.
Meals are the most important thing to pay attention to. Although Yun De'an is the emperor's man, for safety reasons, Wen Mianmian still wants to use the small kitchen in her own yard during her pregnancy.
"Yes, I will go down and arrange it later." Nanny Song also felt that the master would be safer this way.
After all, times are different now, so we should be cautious.

When Ma Jia was having breakfast, she heard her servant Tiandong tell her that Concubine Wen was pregnant.
Ma Jia put down the spoon in her hand and raised her head in shock: "Got it!"
"Yes, it was spread by Concubine Fu Jin, so I think it can't be wrong. Moreover, Concubine Wen did not enter the palace today, but rested in the courtyard."
"I heard it's been three months."
