Chapter 520 Pregnancy Again

Hearing her daughter's words, Mrs. Du also laughed. It's true that parents in this world are all concerned about their children.

After everyone sat down, Mrs. Du said.

"You two look thinner. Rest well in the next few days. You can't do anything during the mourning period. Let's get together as a family more often."

"Mother-in-law is right. I didn't have much time to accompany them and their children in the past. Now that I'm at home, I naturally have to take responsibility. You have been tired and hard these days. Starting tomorrow, you should rest more. Let's live a quiet life as a family."

"Okay, the son-in-law has the final say."

The family sat together with warmth. Even if they didn't talk, it was a very comfortable state.

It was dark outside as if ink was splashed, but it was a little warm inside.

The next day, the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Everyone in the Guo family gathered together. They were holding a full moon banquet for Xue Niang and Guo Silang's child. They didn't invite anyone, but just invited a few people from the General's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion. That was it. All of them were there.

The banquet was personally arranged by the Queen Mother, so it was not considered as an overstep.

When Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi returned to the General's Mansion, they could not even see the children in the next yard, let alone Xue Niang who was in confinement. Therefore, although the couple knew about the situation of the mother and child, it was the first time they met.

Therefore, the eldest sister-in-law Liu and Du Jingyi went to the backyard to see Xue Niang and the child, while Gu Shaoyu and Ping'er were talking to the people of the Guo family in the front hall.

With the maid leading the way, they went very quickly.

The eldest sister-in-law Liu's steps were more hurried, and Xue Niang had been waiting in the corridor early, looking forward to their arrival.

As soon as she saw the people, the eldest sister-in-law Liu couldn't stop crying. After pulling Xue Niang to look around carefully, she said.

"I was scared to death. I was scared to death when I heard that you had a difficult delivery. Fortunately, Doctor Xia was here, otherwise... How can I explain to my father-in-law, mother-in-law and your eldest brother!"

Xue Niang comforted the eldest sister-in-law and explained.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm fine, aren't I? Don't blame yourself, sister-in-law. This matter has nothing to do with you. I was too careless. I thought it was nothing. Who knew that I almost hurt myself and Yin Ge'er."

Both of them said that they wanted to take the responsibility on themselves, but Du Jingyi on the side said to ease the atmosphere.

"The rain has passed and the sky has cleared. After all the hardships, there will be happiness. Sister-in-law and Eighth Sister, don't talk about this. We came here today to see the child, right? I have prepared a lot of gifts here, waiting to give them to him."

After she finished speaking, the sister-in-law and Xue Niang also reacted. They took a deep breath and went into the house.

"How is the child?"

"He's fine. He can eat and sleep. He probably got the treatment from Doctor Xia, so he looks bigger than ordinary children."

Du Jingyi originally thought that Mrs. Guo San said this because she loved her grandson so much. Unexpectedly, when she saw the child, she couldn't help but say it.

"It's really a big boy. It looks bigger than Tai Ge'er when he was one month old."

"Who said it wasn't? He was so small when he was born, but now he is more than twice as heavy. My hands get sore after holding him for a while."

Sister-in-law Liu loves this child very much. Although he is just her nephew, she feels that he is like Ping'er's child. Everything about him is good!

"It's better for the child to be strong. It's not easy to get sick. If he can eat and sleep, it means he has good habits. He will definitely be a filial and well-behaved child in the future."

While talking, the sister-in-law picked up the child and loved him as much as she loved Tai Ge'er and his brothers.

Xue Niang also teased him on the side. The child was not shy at all. When he saw the sister-in-law holding him, he grinned, which was very cute.

Du Jingyi said with a smile after presenting the gift.

"This child is so blessed. He looks like Xueniang when Xueniang holds him, and like Silang when Silang holds him. It's amazing."

"Sixth sister-in-law is right. Sometimes when I look at him, I feel that he looks like me sometimes and like his father sometimes. They are really blood relatives. It's magical."

After hearing her words, the eldest sister-in-law Liu also said Amitabha.

"Fortunately, you and your child are both healthy."

"Yes, it's still the credit of Doctor Xia. Her skills are really extraordinary and the means she used are unheard of. If she and Sixth sister-in-law hadn't repeatedly told me not to spread those things, I really wanted to tell my husband about the magic."

Seeing this, Du Jingyi reiterated it again.

"Treasures attract greed. Since Doctor Xia has saved our lives, we must obey her request. After all, this is the emperor's feet. If others really know her ability, I'm afraid there will be no peace in the future. Isn't there going to be another happy event in the palace?"

The happy event she mentioned was the fact that Concubine Xing was pregnant. Now it is six or seven months, and it is time to show that she is pregnant. If she knew that there was a miracle doctor like Xia Meng, it would be strange if she didn't summon her to the palace!

So, Xue Niang also knew the seriousness of it, so she nodded and said solemnly.

"Don't worry, Sixth Sister-in-law, even if the king of heaven comes, I won't say anything nonsense. I still have this sense of propriety."

"Yeah."

"However, speaking of Concubine Xing's matter, you probably don't know yet, there are some things going on in the palace again."

"What?"

"When Concubine Zhen was still in the Eastern Palace, she gave birth to the fifth prince, but unfortunately he died young. Now I heard that she is pregnant again. She spread the news in a hurry just after she got married. I think she is also trying to compete with Concubine Gui for favor."

Xue Niang is the daughter-in-law of the Guo family, and the Guo family is the empress dowager's family. Naturally, the news is better than the outside world, so Du Jingyi believes what she said.

"I heard that the fifth prince has been gone for three or four years. There has been no movement for so long. How come he suddenly got pregnant again when he entered the palace?"

Could it be that someone in her family is going to be reused by the emperor?

That's why there is such a favor, and she must have been looking forward to it for a long time.

"After all, it's the sixth sister-in-law, she is smart, and she asked the key question at once. My mother-in-law said that Concubine Zhen's brother was promoted to the commander of the Jingji Division, and now he is my husband's boss!"

The Jingji Division was once tightly controlled by the Fourth Prince's party.

Therefore, this time's uprooting has vacated a lot of positions, so naturally it has become the focus of competition among various parties. After all, the Jingji Division holds real power, and any one of them will get a piece of fat meat. No one is stupid enough to give up such a good thing! (End of this chapter)
