She may not be able to get pregnant again.
Su Wanwan's beautiful eyes were filled with confusion and complexity as she looked up at Xiao Bin.
Xiao Bin simply stood there quietly.
He was very calm.
He would accept whatever choice she made.
Nothing could change his plan to take Yan Ge'er away.
In a split second, she made her decision.
"good."
Xiao Bin's pupils trembled slightly.
Su Wanwan rarely saw him so excited, and couldn't help but smile.
"Don't you want to take me with you?"
Xiao Bin lowered his eyes, his ears turning slightly red.
"You'd better change your clothes and disguise yourself."
Su Wanwan felt a little ashamed: "I might cause you a lot of trouble."
Her identity is there.
Once people discover that she is missing, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar.
Xiao Bin simply said, "It's alright, I'll arrange it."
Soon, Xiao Bin brought the woman's clothes, as well as rouge and powder, and told her to change.
Su Wanwan nodded.
Xiao Bin had just picked up Yan Ge'er and left the private room when Yan Ge'er woke up.
He looked around, asking, "Where's Mother?"
"Mother is changing her clothes, let's wait for her."
Yan Ge'er was overjoyed.
Mother is really back!
He's not dreaming!
He was so happy that he danced around and ran about.
I wanted to tell everyone that my mother was back!
However, he held back.
"Wow, this kid is quite cute."
A graceful and beautiful woman walked down the stairs.
Her bright red dress made her look like a blooming rose, fresh and vibrant.
Su Wanwan's hands, which were changing clothes, froze.
That voice sounds so familiar.
It's Maggie!
How did she end up here?!
Su Wanwan was completely disoriented.
So, is Lu Xingjian with her too?
"Little one, how old are you?" Ma Ji asked Yan Ge'er with a charming smile.
This child is so cute, like a porcelain doll.
Because she was pregnant, Maggie paid extra attention to the baby.
Yan Ge'er wouldn't tell her, his face showing wariness.
"My mother said I shouldn't talk to strangers."
Maggie didn't take it seriously and patiently guided him:
"Then tell me, is the baby in my belly a boy or a girl?"
Yan Ge'er pursed his lips, not wanting to speak.
But Maggie was blocking the stairwell, so he couldn't get through.
“A boy.” He replied casually.
Maggie was overjoyed.
Swaying her supple waist, she said smugly to the guards following her:
"Why aren't you reporting this to your master? This is his eldest son. I bled last night, so he should be careful."
One of the guards immediately took the order and left.
Xiao Bin had never met Ma Ji before, so naturally he didn't recognize her.
It was evident from the fact that her guards all moved with light steps and had sharp eyes that she was no ordinary person.
Xiao Bin pulled his straw hat down lower.
The other guards scrutinized Xiao Bin and Yan Ge'er.
Su Wanwan was completely numb when she heard Ma Ji's words in the private room.
She knew very well how domineering Lu Xingjian was in bed.
Did he make Maggie bleed?
Then she laughed self-deprecatingly.
She was already planning to leave.
Why bother with all that?
She came out dressed neatly, and her whole appearance had changed drastically.
Her hair was wrapped in a headscarf, a common practice among elderly women. Her face was darker than usual, her eyelids drooped, and she looked listless.
She was wearing loose clothes, and her original clothes were wrapped up and tied inside her belly, making her look like a common pregnant woman who was six months pregnant.
Maggie was walking towards a private room.
His gaze swept over Su Wanwan, but he didn't recognize her at all, nor did he pay much attention to her.
When Xiao Bin saw Su Wanwan finally come out, he took Yan Ge'er's hand and went downstairs.
When Yan Ge'er turned around and saw Su Wanwan like this, he only widened his eyes slightly before obediently following Xiao Bin in front.
To outsiders, it looks like a family of three, with a fourth baby in her belly.
Maggie's guards glanced at them a few times, then turned their gazes away indifferently.
Su Wanwan glanced around out of the corner of her eye but did not see Lu Xingjian.
Everything went smoothly until boarding the ship.
The ship left the dock and was about to enter the deep water.
A troop of light cavalry galloped in from the shore:
"All vessels are required to remain in place and undergo inspection!"
Su Wanwan's heart jumped into her throat.
Did someone recognize you just now?
Or is there a problem with Heying?
However.
The ships ahead of them ignored them, adjusted their sails, and continued on their way.
Their boat naturally followed suit and left.
Su Wanwan's tense expression relaxed slightly.
Xiao Bin comforted her, saying, "There are only eight customs checkpoints on the Grand Canal. We've just passed the Hexiwu Customs Checkpoint. The next one is in Linqing, Shandong. It's still a long way off."
The customs office was a government agency that set up checkpoints on the canal to collect taxes.
Because merchants disliked using paper money, which depreciated rapidly, the imperial court allowed merchants to pay taxes using paper money, hence the name "paper money customs."
"No wonder you chose this meeting place." Su Wanwan couldn't help but admire Xiao Bin's ingenious arrangement of the route.
Unless the imperial court goes to great lengths to set up interception points on the canal, it would be difficult to stop passing ships.
It was evening.
The ship docked at the pier to rest, waiting for dawn the next day before setting sail again.
After washing up, Su Wanwan hugged Yan Ge'er and went to bed early.
He remained fully awake and unable to fall asleep.
Was Maggie's appearance at the restaurant today a coincidence or intentional?
