The carriage stopped, and Jiang Shuyun got out first, then carefully helped Mu Yi'an down.
"Shuyun, relax. Didn't Master Wan say not to be too nervous and just keep a normal mindset?"
"Okay, I'll try my best, I'll try my best to control it."
Jiang Shuyun stared at Mu Yi'an without blinking, then took her arm and led her through the hanging flower gate.
"Yi'an, what happened? Did you sprain your ankle?"
Jiang's mother played with Chuyue and Chuqing in the courtyard, while Chutong went to learn needlework from Mianhua.
"Mother, she didn't sprain her ankle. It's Yi'an. She's pregnant."
"Really, that's wonderful. Chuyue is already three or four years old. I was thinking that you two will be having one soon too."
In Jiang's mother's heart, she thought how wonderful it was to have so many children; many children meant many blessings.
Jiang Shuyun and Mu Yi'an were speechless. This was unexpected for them; otherwise, they would never have wanted another child.
"What's wrong? Did you go to see a doctor? Is something the problem?"
Jiang's mother then noticed the solemn expressions on their faces and her heart skipped a beat.
"No, the doctor said everything is fine. It's just that since An is carrying twins, she needs to be extra careful."
Twins, two children?
Jiang's mother hadn't expected this situation. No one in the Jiang family had twins, but An's family did.
"Mom, did you come out together like my second uncle's younger brother and sister?"
Chuyue waited for a long time before it was finally her turn to speak.
"Yes, just like my second uncle's younger brother and sister, they will live together in my mother's belly and come out together when the time comes."
"When will it come out? Is it already in Mommy's belly?"
Chuyue was very curious and carefully touched her mother's belly, but there was nothing there.
"It's already there, but it's still quite small, about the size of an egg."
Mu Yi'an guessed that she had never been pregnant in her previous life, and even if someone was pregnant at the same time, she wouldn't get close to them. She really didn't know how big a three-month-old fetus was, or whether it had developed facial features and limbs yet.
"That's amazing, it's so small, how do you hold it?"
"You'll grow up slowly, and then you'll see your mother's belly getting bigger little by little. Chuyue, keep an eye on your second brother from now on, and don't let him pounce on your mother."
Jiang Shuyun squatted down, looked into Chuyue's eyes, and earnestly told her about the precautions.
"I understand, Dad. I'll keep an eye on my second brother, and I won't cling to Mom. I'll let Mom hold me after she gives birth to my younger brother and sister."
"Okay, if Chuyue wants a hug, she should ask Daddy, and Daddy will hug her, okay?"
"Okay, Daddy, hug me."
Chuyue opened her arms, and Jiang Shuyun picked up the little girl. This child must be feeling a little disappointed.
In my past life, when my colleague's family was having a second child, the firstborn would have some difficulty adjusting. I wonder what Shao Ming and Shao Yun thought about it.
Chuyue let her father hold her for a little while before getting down.
"Dad, hug Chuqing too."
"Yes, hug them both."
Jiang Shuyun also noticed her niece's envious gaze and had originally planned to hug Chuqing as well.
He doesn't have the mindset of people from ancient times; he holds his grandchildren but not his own children. He has held and played with all three of his children.
Chu Qing was picked up by her second uncle, and she had an indescribable feeling in her heart. The little child hugged her second uncle's neck tightly with her hands, and rested her head on her second uncle's shoulder, just like her older sister Chu Yue.
Jiang's mother turned her head, her heart aching. This child was missing out on so much.
"Yi'an, don't stand here anymore, go back inside and lie down for a while. It's harder to raise two children than one. During this time, if anything happens, just tell me, don't try to handle it all yourself. Your health is the most important thing during your pregnancy."
"I understand, Mother. I will be careful. Doctor Chu's master mentioned many precautions, and my husband has written them down. We will pay attention."
Mu Yi'an has been busy all morning and is really tired, mainly because she's been under a lot of stress these past two days.
Mu Yi'an went back to her room, and Jiang's mother asked her what the doctor had said.
"Mother, the doctor said to pay attention to your diet, get some exercise, and go to the clinic for a pulse check once a month..."
Jiang Shuyun repeated the notes he had made to his mother. He had to go to the academy to teach every day and couldn't stay with Yi'an all the time, so it was good that his mother was here and could take care of Yi'an.
Later, I also need to send a message to Uncle Mu's family and my parents-in-law in the county town, so that An is pregnant and her family knows.
"Is this doctor any good? Should we have Uncle Shao Ming come and take a look?"
“Mother, Master Wan is my brother-in-law’s master.”
"Oh? That's good, that's good."
Jiang's mother really didn't know about this. With her son-in-law's mentor around, there was nothing to worry about.
After Jiang Shuyun finished speaking with his mother, he gathered Fang's wife and the others together and told them what the doctor had instructed, asking Fang's wife to put away the medicine to prevent miscarriage.
"It's best if we don't need it. If your wife feels unwell, make sure she takes the medicine promptly and have Wei San go to Wanbaotang to see Doctor Wan."
"Sir, we understand. We will take good care of Madam."
Sister-in-law Li and the others know what's important. This is the first time the wife has been pregnant since they came to the Jiang family, so they will definitely do their best to take good care of her.
Jiang Shuyun finished explaining everything and went into the inner room. Mu Yi'an was already asleep in bed. The doctor said that she should sleep whenever she was tired, and that she would be fine after the first few months.
After learning that Yi'an was pregnant, he didn't sleep well either. He took off his clothes, went to bed, held Yi'an, and took a nap.
Outside, Sister-in-law Li and the others were discussing how to take good care of the pregnant woman.
“Let’s listen to the doctor and my wife. A quiet home, without any ghosts or monsters, will make us feel much more relaxed.”
Sister-in-law Wei recalled that in her previous master's house, whenever someone became pregnant, one problem would arise after another, and those who were able to give birth smoothly were all capable and favored.
