One hundred eighteen, my stomach hurts so much

  After listening to the conversation, Madame Qi's face had turned extremely difficult to look at, it could be said that it was indescribable. The smile on her face was stiff and awkward, her eyes were wide open, with a hint of coldness and cruelty in her gaze, her complexion was pale and greenish-white, overall the emotions on her entire face made people unable to bear looking at her.

  Bai Xin thought she would be like He Lan, unable to bear others' cold faces and would scold her recklessly as a junior, but unexpectedly, after waiting for half a moment, there was no sound of her scolding.

  "Madam Ji's expression softened, and she forced a smile: 'The princess is right. Sometimes I'm too impatient and haven't thought things through, causing the Duke's household to lose face. In the future, I'll be more cautious and won't be so reckless and rude again. Please, Princess, consider my good intentions and don't treat me like an outsider. In the past, I didn't show enough love and care for you, letting you suffer and endure hardships. My heart is filled with regret.'"

  As she spoke, it seemed to have touched Mrs. Ji's sore spot, she lowered her head, wiped the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, and when she raised her head again, her eye sockets were red, and continued to say:

  "That year when your mother passed away, your paternal grandmother wanted to bring you and your sister back to the Ji family, but that He Lan clan refused to let you both go. Your paternal grandmother had a kind heart towards you, but never got the chance. Although she has many children and grandchildren, her only two granddaughters are you and your sister, so why wouldn't she love you? Not only did the Bai family occupy you and your sister, they even refused to give you back to us, the Ji family, and instead sent you away elsewhere. We had a falling out with the Bai family because of this, and until now, we still don't get along. I heard that you've recovered from your illness and are also pregnant, your paternal grandmother is truly happy for you from the bottom of her heart. If your mother were still alive, she would probably be relieved too."

  After finishing speaking, Mrs. Ji lowered her head and began to wipe away tears from the corners of her eyes again, her shoulders shaking violently, it was heartbreaking just thinking about it.

  If it were someone else, they might have been moved by the old lady's words. But after all that Bai Xie had gone through with the Bai family, even if she wanted to be soft-hearted, she couldn't bring herself to do so.

  Her heart was indeed cold and hard at this moment.

  She isn't sensitive to other things, but only to emotions. Due to the losses and regrets she experienced since childhood, she is much more sensitive than ordinary people. Who treats her well or badly, who is sincere or fake, she can roughly distinguish by just calming down and feeling it.

  Some emotions can't be moved by just saying it, the people who are good to her around her never say those heart-moving words. For example, like Xueying, like Xueran, like Moyu, they won't show off their emotions to her, won't say how much they care about her, how much they like her, but the love they give her is in action, not on the surface.

  What Lady Tai said was indeed touching and pleasant to hear, but she is not a three-year-old child who can be easily fooled by others' flattery. She is not the kind of person who cannot live without family affection. On the contrary, family affection is nothing but a fart in her eyes. What's the use of blood ties? Even a stranger with no blood relation is more valuable than that.

  This season's Mrs. Tao also underestimated her...

  Does she think that just by putting her mother's words in her mouth, it will take effect?

  Now you're being nice to her, where were you before? Bai Xinzhen of the White family has lived in Maoshan Village for 18 whole years. 18 years, what a period of time that is! For 18 years, not one relative came to visit her. Now you come to tell her your regrets and apologies, now you talk about making amends, is it useful?

  It's useless! At least she doesn't need anyone's consolation anymore.

  She has her beloved Mo Yu, good friends who care about her, and the unborn child in her womb. With these, she is already content.

  Others can be treated as fart, let the wind blow and disperse.

  She curled up the corners of her mouth, chewing on a cold smile. In her heart, Bai Xin had an indescribable sense of mockery. But she couldn't help but admit that this old woman in front of her was better at being human than He Lan Shi. At least she didn't dare to say or scold anything like He Lan Shi did.

  "Empress Dowager, your sincerity has moved me deeply. I appreciate your condolences and apology. If there's nothing else, you may take your leave."

  Mrs. Ji was stunned. She hadn't finished what she wanted to say...

  "Blood Shadow, see them off." Turning his head, Bai Xincheng instructed in a low voice.

  "Your Highness... I..." Madame Ji seemed to have not expected that she had finally met someone, but was actually driven away so quickly, with her mouth agape, clearly wanting to say something.

  "Empress, I'm currently taking great care to nurture my pregnancy. From now on, whether there's something or not, I hope you won't come to disturb me. You should know how much the Emperor values this pregnancy. Disturbing my rest will bring no benefits to you or the Season family. What I've said just now is already clear, if you didn't understand, I can repeat it: I lack nothing now, so I don't need your care and concern. Although we're grandmother and grandson, our relationship isn't deep, so you don't have to try hard to be good to me. If our prince knew you were approaching me, he might suspect that you have ulterior motives. You should also know the outcome of He Lan Shi's case; our prince is especially disgusted with such things now. Take care of yourself, I won't see you off."

  Without giving her a chance to speak, Bai Xincheng coldly cut off all her thoughts. From then on, she really didn't want to see these people again.

  The real Bai Xingdye is already dead, and even if he's not dead, he probably wouldn't be foolish enough to pay respects to these people with filial piety. After all, he doesn't owe them anything, does he?

  Xue Ying walked up to Seasonal Tai Fu Ren's front, his tall figure blocking all her line of sight.

  Looking at the maid in front of her with a cold and detached aura, Mrs. Ji suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, her hand clenched into a fist in her sleeve, her anger and resentment making her eyes flash with a fierce light. But no matter how foolish she was, she knew this wasn't a place where she could cause trouble. This woman wasn't someone she could scold at will either; the fate of He Lan still lingered, and she hadn't become stupid enough to provoke a confrontation with this good-for-nothing like He Lan had, unless she too had grown tired of living.

  She left with a mouthful of resentment, biting her back teeth.

  As soon as she walked out of the Cheng Wang Fu's gate, she returned to her carriage with a body full of anger. Cui Zhu supported her in taking her seat and immediately asked anxiously: "Madam, did you see the Crown Princess?"

  Mrs. Ji was so angry that she didn't even want to speak, her brow furrowed and trembling with rage.

  She didn't expect that waste to have such a long history after all.

  It's been just a few months since we last met, and she has transformed from a silly good-for-nothing into an arrogant and condescending woman!

  Isn't she just the princess consort of the Wang Fu, yet she's so arrogant and domineering, not putting her maternal grandmother in her eyes at all. A woman without family education is indeed detestable, and to make matters worse, she's also putting on airs, really hateful!

  The majestic Princess Cheng Wang, when receiving guests, doesn't even offer a sip of tea, which is extremely rude. I don't know how blind Prince Cheng must be to have taken a liking to such a woman.

  How infuriating! It's really infuriating!

  She put on a thick face to show her good intentions, but before she could even speak, she was blocked by that waste and couldn't say a word. Having lived for so many years, she had never seen anyone as arrogant and disregarding of others as this person. It's really hard to swallow the fact that her own granddaughter would treat her with such indifference and coldness. How did her daughter give birth to such an unfeeling and heartless thing?

  All the way, Mrs. Ji silently cursed in her heart, but there was nothing she could do about it.

  Although she has lost all her dignity, what can she do?

  The miserable state of the old lady from the White family is still there, it's not that she can't afford to provoke that waste, nor is it that she dares not provoke that waste, but now with the support of the Crown Prince, that waste still has a child of the imperial family in her belly, and she simply can't do anything about that waste.

  It seems that for the time being, we can only give up. If you want to make friends with the Wang family, you need to plan carefully. That waste has become normal now and is very hostile and defensive towards people. Ordinary thoughts are not enough to show in front of her. Without a well-thought-out plan, it's better not to go in front of that woman, lest you fail and lose face...

  At night, Yan Mo returned to his room and saw Bai Xincheng sitting at the desk, staring blankly even when reading a book. As he walked over, he took the book from her hand and asked with a lowered gaze: "Has Madam Ji offended you?"

  Bai Xin raised her head, somewhat surprised: "What's wrong, Yin Du is being too talkative again?" That big mouth! Sighing, "Actually, she didn't provoke me, it's just that I find them annoying. To be honest, I'm afraid they'll cause trouble for you. Each and every one of them has ulterior motives, not a single one is decent, it's really frustrating to watch."

  "After that, I won't see them again." Yan Mo supported her arm and helped her up from the stool, lifting his feet to walk outside.

  Bai Xin nodded as she walked: "I also made it clear to that old woman today, if she has any self-awareness, she won't come to disturb our lives again." If not, then we can only wait and see...

  Her eyelids drooped, her lips pursed, without a word, but her eyes were somewhat cold.

  Since my belly got bigger, taking a bath has become quite inconvenient. The bathtub is too high and I feel it's really not convenient to climb in and out. Even with the help of a wooden ladder, I have to be extra careful.

  Can't just not take a bath because it's inconvenient?

  Then, I had a small hot spring room built in the main courtyard. The artificial hot spring was connected to an underground fire, and there were special people responsible for changing the water, so the hot spring water could be used at any time. Since having this artificial hot spring, Bai Xincheng not only reduced many inconveniences but also occasionally relaxed his mood by soaking in the warmth for a while.

  As soon as this small artificial hot spring appeared, Liu Xue Lan couldn't wait to go back and have a certain man also set up an identical hot spring room.

  After entering the hot spring room, Bai Xintong closed the door and went to the closet to find two clean sets of clothes hanging on the wooden frame beside the hot spring.

  Before she could even lift a hand to undress herself, a pair of large hands had already taken over for her.

  "Either I'll wash myself, or let Blood Shadow accompany me, you can go out?" Looking at those long fingers peeling themselves, Bai Xin's ears were a bit hot. She didn't have this kind of shyness before, and she didn't know if it was because the two hadn't done that in a long time, so many times she felt like she couldn't let go.

  What's most unbearable for her is that every time she sees him blush and endure in silence, she feels especially guilty.

  Yan Mo gave her a stern look without saying a word, then undressed and carried her straight into the hot spring.

  "From now on, don't spend the whole day sitting around playing mahjong. Dr. Zhang has told you to move around more often, remember?" He reminded her in a serious tone while washing her body. If one were to ignore the intense desire burning in those dark eyes, he would be absolutely serious and stern at this moment.

  As soon as mahjong was mentioned, Bai Xinzhi couldn't help but smile: "It's just a few days of play, I see they're all very enthusiastic, how can we not accompany them?"

  Xue Lian's addiction is quite severe, and she can't control it either. Even the King of Feng De can't manage to control her, how could she possibly do so?

  As for Blood Shadow, she couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. At first, Blood Shadow was neither winning nor losing every day, but these two days that girl suddenly became a mahjong master, and she suspected that Blood Shadow had somehow cheated, otherwise how would she know which card was in which position?

  Yan Mo glared at them: "Are you guys just going to keep this up for a few days?"

  Bai Xin suddenly felt a little guilty, judging from the current situation, it seems that things are getting out of hand.

  She pouted and deliberately twisted his meaning: "Isn't it just losing some silver? Playing mahjong is also about winning and losing, I didn't know my luck was bad. No big deal, next time I'll try harder to win it back."

  Yan Mo was taken aback and couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. Underwater, he pinched her soft flesh with a bad temper and glared at her: "Obviously you're making excuses to play again, and on purpose scolding me for being stingy!" What's this 'win it back' nonsense? Isn't that just wanting to continue playing?

  Bai Xin's disguise is exposed, and Le De bursts out laughing with a series of 'hehes'.

  Hugging his neck, she smiled and said: "I know you're jealous, but you didn't want to join in because of your pride. No big deal, one day you can just find that Feng De Wang guy and have him keep you company. That way, you won't be talking nonsense."

  "It's not that kind of gambler as a husband!" A certain father said with a serious face.

  Bai Xinzhi was always smiling: "Yes, my husband is not good at gambling, he's just too embarrassed to gamble."

  "Shameless!" Holding her plump body, Yan Mo raised his hand and pinched her nose.

  At this moment, the woman is embracing his neck, her body close to his. If he just slightly lowers his eyelids, he can take in all of her beauty. Now, although her belly is bulging, some places have become even more ample. Compared to when he first met her, she has truly undergone a transformation that's like heaven and earth. Her pale and rosy face is moist and lustrous, and under the swirling heat, it's as if the clear ripples of water are opening up, with a misty gaze that has the sparkling light of the stars, carrying quiet beauty. The smile that floats out from between her eyebrows is lively and vivid, natural and sweet. For him, she has long since shed those distant and cold attitudes, freely displaying her entire self in his eyes, whether it's her body or her heart...

  She is undoubtedly the one who brings him comfort and excitement, being with her, he has more ease and pleasure, which is something he never had before, but this woman easily gave him everything he once yearned for but couldn't have...

  My mind is wandering, and I feel a little dry in my mouth and tongue. I hold her body and unconsciously start to drift away slowly.

  His thin lips slightly lowered, and he captured her, grasping the back of her head, greedily devouring everything that belonged to her.

  It was just a kiss, but Bai Xin suddenly felt the water temperature rise by a lot, and most importantly, the body temperature of the man in front of her was scorching hot.

  "Mo Yu..." A faint hum of protest escaped her throat as she tried to push him away.

  I only feel that my whole body is like a fire, at this moment a pair of eyes seem to be emitting flames, hot enough to annihilate people.

  No one knows how much he has suffered in these months, not a single day passes without him thinking of her, he feels that the greatest torture in this world is to have her right in front of his eyes, in his own arms, yet he dare not try lightly, heaven knows how much he wants...

  But as soon as he thought of her current body, he had to once again retreat and force himself to erase those inappropriate thoughts.

  She can endure the pain of ten months of pregnancy for him, but he just needs to tolerate a few months...

  He released her lips and held her tightly in his arms, his angular cheek rubbing against her forehead, a simple intimacy that revealed the treasured love he had for her in his heart. She was the woman he cherished in the palm of his hand...

  He felt him deliberately suppressing those desires again, Bai Xincheng pursed his lips and leaned motionlessly against his chest.

  She told him it was okay, but he refused. She even offered to help him with her hands, but he strongly disagreed. He said he wanted her body, and nothing else could replace it.

  Sometimes his persistence really gives her a headache, but sometimes she is also touched by his persistence...

  ……

  From that day on, Bai Xinzhen never saw Seasonal Tai Fu again. Previously, she was worried that the old woman would not know her place and continue to pester her, but unexpectedly, the other party had self-awareness, which made her feel unexpected and appreciative at times.

  In short, it's better not to come again, so as not to see those hypocritical fake smiles that make her eyes ache, and hear those insincere words that make her ears ache. As long as they don't provoke her, everyone can live their own lives peacefully from now on. Otherwise, even if they do come, she will scold them every time they meet, and absolutely won't be like before, always worrying about something. Besides, this is her home, and they're the ones who came to her door asking for a scolding, so she really won't care that much anymore.

  In the blink of an eye, more than four months have passed.

  The method of calculating the date in Shu Xia Guo is roughly the same as the modern old lunar calendar. The so-called "ten months of pregnancy" really means that it takes ten months to be considered full-term. And Liu Xue Lan's gestation period was almost half a month longer than Bai Xin's.

  As Liu Xue Lan was about to give birth, Xia Li Xuan didn't dare let her out again and directly locked her in the mansion. So for this period of time, Bai Xin Ran was especially bored, even Blood Shadow had some minor discomfort.

  "Blood Shadow, you've won quite a bit over the past few months, haven't you?" Bai Xintong asked with raised eyebrows as she ate melon seeds in the cool pavilion.

  Xue Ying squeezed a walnut in her empty hand, crushing it into pieces, and placed the intact walnut kernel on a plate on the stone table. She picked up another walnut and pinched it in the palm of her hand. Hearing Bai Xincheng's question, she raised her head and nodded expressionlessly at him.

  "Returning to the princess, Xiao is winning quite a bit."

  Bai Xin's eyes were fixed on her hand, watching as Xue Ying effortlessly crushed the hard-as-iron walnut with a mere pinch of his fingers. The kernel inside was still intact and unharmed. This technique, she had learned before but couldn't master it. She also had internal energy, but at most, she could only crush the walnut, and the kernel would be crushed along with it, unlike Xue Ying's feat, which was simply a perfect and unparalleled skill.

  According to her calculations, in the nearly four months of mahjong career, Xueying has won no less than 5,000 taels of silver, lost nearly 2,000 taels of silver, and Liu Xuelan has lost almost 4,000 taels of silver. It can be said that Xueying is almost empty-handed and white-wolfed, earning a full pot, which really makes people jealous!

  It's said that pregnant women who gamble always win, but she didn't understand why she and Liu Xuelan, two pregnant women together, could lose so badly. If it weren't for the men backing them up, they would have lost even their underwear.

  To be honest, she also lost a lot of money, that was a large sum of silver, several thousand taels, thinking about it makes her feel like she's being too extravagant.

  When playing mahjong, I didn't think that much at all. The more I lost, the more I wanted to win, and the more I wanted to win, the harder it was to quit.

  It's not like she lost a lot of money all at once, now when she sees her own husband, she still feels uneasy in her heart.

  I don't know when I'll have the chance to translate it...

  Just then, a familiar woman's voice came from far outside the courtyard...

  "My heart is stained, my blood is shadowed, I have arrived!"

  Bai Xin's eyes widened as she watched from afar, and saw Liu Xue Lan waddling into her courtyard with a big belly, followed by two old palace maids, Bai Yu and Qing Hong the two servant girls, and four or five guards from the Imperial Palace...

  "......?! This woman, wasn't she supposed to be in the palace waiting to give birth?"

  She was still waiting for news of her production, and as a result she actually ran out!

  "Xue Lian, isn't your due date around these two days? What are you running out to do?" Looking at the tense faces of those maids and servants, Bai Xincheng couldn't help but sweat for her. She dared to guarantee that Prince Fengde definitely didn't know she had run out.

  Liu Xuelan walked into the pavilion with her hands on her waist and sat down opposite Bai Xinzhi, laughing loudly:

  "This isn't boring at all. I don't know if this kid is intentionally being stubborn with me, I'm waiting for him to come out, but there's no sign of him. I reckon he won't be coming out for a while."

  White heart stained with sweat. “……”

  Can she figure this out?

  "Does your family's Lord Feng De know you've come out?" She was very curious about how she had managed to get out.

  Liu Xue Lan suddenly smiled slyly: "If he knew I could still come out? He locked me up for half a month, can't I even have a day of fun?"

  She paused for a moment, then raised her chin at Blood Shadow: "Blood Shadow, hurry up and bring out the card table. Today, I must win back everything I lost."

  Bai Xin was even more ashamed. This woman is about to give birth and still remembers, is it that she didn't win back so she doesn't plan on giving birth?

  Everyone has arrived, what else can she do, she can only wave her hand at Blood Shadow and hint that she should go down and prepare.

  Xue Ying's expressionless face left the pavilion. She instructed Mei Jiao and Mei Yu to bring the table, chairs, melons and fruits into the pavilion, then she quietly returned to her room.

  Yin Du returned to the house to fetch something, but as soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Xue Ying preparing to leave. He glanced down at the bag in Xue Ying's hand, and if he wasn't mistaken, it was filled with silver.

  After stepping across the threshold and closing the door behind him with a flourish, he raised an eyebrow and asked with some suppressed laughter: "Going to gamble again?"

  The Princess of Germany has just arrived, and this woman came back to fetch the silverware. No need to think, he knew what they were going to do.

  He couldn't help but admire these few women. One or two of them were pregnant, but what they thought about every day wasn't the right thing. What left him speechless was that in front of him, this seemingly quiet and unassuming woman, he dared to say she had the worst addiction among the three women, and her poker skills were top-notch, it would be a waste if she didn't become a gambler.

  "Hmm." Xue Ying lowered his head and responded with a neutral tone.

  Yin Du's lips curled up, and she automatically categorized her appearance as guilty. Supporting her shoulders with his hands, the two of them turned their bodies, and the blood shadow was pushed onto the door panel, his tall figure leaning in close, sandwiching her between the door panel and him.

  "Didn't you always not bring any money before? How come this time you thought of bringing some out?" He asked with a smile, his dark eyes gleaming with a hint of teasing. Was he intentionally taking the silver out to lose it?

  It's no wonder, in just a few months, she won several thousand taels of silver, all locked in the box under the bed. I don't know how stupid those two women are, they actually lost that much. Is she planning to return some today?

  "They lost so much, and you're just bringing this little bit. I reckon it's not even enough to fill the gap between Princess De's teeth?" Seeing Xueying lower her head in silence, he continued to tease.

  Xue Ying raised his head, his clear and cold eyes glanced at him for a moment before lowering his head again.

  That fleeting astonishment was still caught by Yin Du, instantly making him both angry and amused.

  "Blood Shadow, you've been obsessed with playing mahjong all this time and have neglected me. What do you plan to do to make it up to me?" Suddenly, Yin Du's smile disappeared from her face, replaced by a look of dissatisfaction and unspoken grievance.

  ...... Xue Ying raised her head, looking at the face full of grievances in front of her. Her long eyelashes suddenly fluttered lightly, and a strange emotion flashed through her eyes.

  Yin Du pouted, pointing to his black boots: "My boots are all worn out, you don't care about me, you say I'm a big man who doesn't know how to sew and mend, maybe tomorrow I'll have to walk barefoot."

  When he heard this, Xue Ying lowered his head and followed his line of sight, and indeed, there was a small crack on the big toe.

  Her calm eyes flashed with a hint of unusual emotion again. She raised her head and suddenly said in a light tone, "I'll go buy it tomorrow."

  Yin Du wanted to laugh, but he knew that if he did, his boots would probably be gone.

  With a look of discontent, he pointed at the money bag in Bie Xue's hand: "Buying things all require money, so don't waste these silver coins. Others aren't short of your few coins either, why do you still want to give them away? Wouldn't it be better to keep them and buy more clothes for me?"

  Finally, he suddenly leaned in close to Xue Ying's ear and whispered something, causing Xue Ying's clear and cold eyes to widen in surprise. Yan Du's thin lips were pressed against her small ear, and she could even clearly feel her ears starting to burn.

  The corners of his mouth curled up, and a hint of complacency flashed in the bottom of his eyes. As people say, "Fat water doesn't flow into other people's fields." He wouldn't let his woman foolishly pour out silver to others. Those two women weren't short on that bit of silver anyway; they were always clamoring to gamble, and losing a lot was what they deserved!

  The door of the room was opened after almost a minute, and as for what the two people did in the house, no one knew. When Blood Shadow came out of the house, his hands were empty...

  ……

  Inside the pavilion

  Three women surrounded her, and in the blink of an eye, two rounds had passed. Today, Liu Xue Lan's luck was clearly better than it had been for a while, at least she hadn't lost much. Seeing that she was about to win some money, she couldn't help but start showing off.

  "After losing so much, if I don't win a few rounds today, I won't even have the energy to give birth to a son." Looking at her uniform tiles plus two jokers, a certain woman was overjoyed, raising an eyebrow here and winking there, being as pleased as punch, while secretly counting how many rounds she had won.

  "Little bird." Bai Xinzhen slowly played a card, and didn't put Liu Xuelan's excessive gloating in his eyes at all. Their rule was that whoever self-drew would double the stakes, according to Liu Xuelan's personality, even if she was the one who had been set off, she wouldn't want it, if you have the ability, let her draw herself.

  Looking at the wooden board with a bird's head carved on it, which Bai Xinzhen had drawn out, Liu Xuelan was stunned for a short while, and her big eyes were also tangled for a moment. But seeing that there were still more than ten boards left untouched behind, she shook her head, gritted her teeth, and reached out to touch the unplayed wooden board.

  "I don't believe it, can't even touch a bird"

  Before she could say a word, she suddenly froze, and the next moment, her mouth was wide open, ready to slam the mahjong tiles on the table. Suddenly, a loud roar came from not far away...

  Liu Xuelan!

  Nor did she know if it was the sudden sound that scared Liu Xue Lan, her hand holding the wooden sign hadn't even had time to put it out, when a sharp pain suddenly came from her lower abdomen, as if something in her belly was pulling and tearing at her flesh, causing her to subconsciously hug her own belly and cry out in pain.

  "Hey!"

  Her sudden condition made Bai Xinzhen tense up immediately, and he quickly got up from the table to support her: "Xue Shan, what's wrong with you? Is it time for you to give birth?"

  As soon as she finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared and instantly swept Liu Xue Lan into his arms.

  The man's face turned black with rage: "You damned woman, who told you to come out?!"

  He had just left the house for half an hour, but he didn't know that as soon as he walked out, this woman slipped out.

  Damn thing, doesn't it know it's about to give birth?!

  "Ah......" Liu Xuelan furrowed her brow, not even noticing the man's dark face, gritted her teeth and took a cold breath, her hands subconsciously clenched into fists on Xia Lixun's shirt, letting out an unattractive whimper, "I... I... my stomach hurts so much...... Ah......"

  At the words, Xia Lixuan's black eyes, which had been rolled up in anger, suddenly flashed with a hint of horror, and his body stiffened for a moment. When the next painful moan came from Liu Xuelan, he suddenly came back to his senses, and without saying anything, he hastily hugged the heavily pregnant woman and took off running.

  Liu Xue Lan was uncertain whether she was going to give birth or not, her stomach was aching, but she still had other things on her mind. Seeing the man leave without looking back, she endured the severe abdominal pain and stretched out her arm, holding up the wooden sign she had finally managed to grasp, waving it wildly and shouting loudly:

  "My bird... Ahh... My bird... The bird I finally managed to touch..."

  The man's face turned iron-green, and he disappeared into the main courtyard of Cheng Wang Fu at a speed like the wind. The maid who followed Liu Xue Lan hastily bid farewell to Bai Xin Yan and almost ran out of Cheng Wang Fu.

  In the pavilion, it suddenly became quiet, and after a long time, Bai Xinzhu felt that there were still crows flying over his head, making "ah" sounds.

  Looking at Liu Xue Lan's still-standing sign - Single Hanging Small Bird.

  Although she had no production experience, but she guessed that Liu Xuelan must be giving birth.

  After she came back to her senses, she had Blood Shadow follow her to the study and told Yan Mo about Liu Xue Lan's situation.

  This time, Yan Mo didn't refuse her going out either. He instructed Yin Du to prepare the carriage and then took Bai Xinduan to the Fongde Wangfu.

  On the carriage, Bai Xinzhen thought of some scenes and couldn't help but feel a little tense. Looking at her own big belly that was like a bamboo basket, she felt inexplicably afraid.

  Those who have never given birth only know that giving birth is painful, but as for what kind of pain it is, no one can describe it in advance.

  But in one aspect, these ancient birth attendants are no less than the obstetricians in those big hospitals. Compared to hospital doctors who often advise people to have a cesarean section, she has more respect for these birth attendants who help others give birth with their own hands.

  In the Wang's mansion, two experienced midwives had been invited to take care of her. Every few days, they would perform a "fetal examination" on her, which was to ensure that the baby's position in the womb was normal before entering the pelvis, so as to reduce the risk of difficult labor during delivery.

  Fortunately, after she was touched several times, it was said that the fetal position was normal. The two midwives would occasionally accompany her to talk, which is equivalent to doing ideological work in advance, trying to make her psychologically prepared as soon as possible and reduce her tension when giving birth.

  As soon as the phenomenon of "snowflakes falling into a basin" appeared, she couldn't help but be deeply affected and became somewhat flustered.

  The woman in his arms was showing signs of anxiety, and Yan Mo didn't fail to notice it. However, when it came to the matter of women giving birth, he really didn't know how to speak appropriately. He was afraid that if he said something wrong, it would only make her even more anxious and uneasy.

  "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'll always be with you." He patted her back, his low voice sounding in her ear.

  Bai Xin raised her head and looked at the man's furrowed brow, suddenly bursting out laughing: "It's not my birthday now, why are you comforting me?"

  This smile made her feel less tense inside.

  He lowered his head, touching her forehead with his own, and suddenly said in a serious tone: "If you're afraid, then don't go. News will naturally be sent back."

  Bai Xin shook her head, smiling at his tense and handsome face: "It's okay, I'll go take a look and feel more at ease. Also, I can learn from the experience. Don't think of me as such a coward, okay?"

  She's incredibly brave!

  Yan Mo didn't say anything, although his tense and handsome face relaxed a bit, but the deep eyes still had an inexplicable worry.

  The carriage drove all the way to the Wangfu of Feng De.

  As for their arrival, the people of Feng De Wang Fu did not stop them and directly invited them into the mansion.

  In the main courtyard of Wangfu, a group of servants were already busy rushing about. As soon as they entered the yard, the maids and servant women hurried in and out without making a sound, only the faint cries of a woman in pain could be heard coming from one of the rooms.

  Those waves of painful cries were mixed with a tragic flavor, making people feel even more terrified.

  However, after the sound of labor pains passed, the sounds of men and women quarreling could be heard again. There was no sign of a certain father-to-be in the courtyard, and without thinking much, it was clear where a certain man was.

  At this time, they can still quarrel in the delivery room. Bai Xinzhen was convinced by those two from the bottom of her heart.

  Yan Mo was a male guest, so he naturally couldn't get close to the front. Bai Xin Zhi had originally wanted to go in and take a look, to see if she could help with anything, but as soon as she heard Liu Xue Lan's wailing cries, her excitement got stuck in her throat.

  She really didn't want to admit her own cowardice, but at this moment, she was indeed afraid.

  Forgive her, she will give birth soon too. Listening to Liu Xue Lan's wails, her back felt numb, thinking that she would be the same...

  Finally, the couple let the steward of the Feng De Wang Fu find a quiet place, and the two brought Yin Du and Xue Ying to start waiting.

  Perhaps due to Liu Xue Lan's martial arts training since childhood, her physical condition was better than that of ordinary women. Bai Xin Cai had thought it would take a long time before the child was born, but unexpectedly, within less than an hour, Liu Xue Lan gave birth to the child.

  The housekeeper hastily came to report the good news, saying that a young prince was born and both mother and child were safe.

  Looking at the excited expression on the old steward's face of the Feng De Wang Fu, Bai Xincheng's hanging heart finally fell back into place.

  She had Blood Shadow accompany her to visit Liu Xue Lan and the newborn baby after giving birth.

  Liu Xuelan was in the delivery room, a maid was tidying up the house, two wet nurses were wiping Liu Xuelan's body. And by the bed, a man was staring intently at a bundle of swaddling clothes in his hands, his eyes not leaving them for a moment.

  "Is King Fengde better?" she asked as she walked up. Just thinking of taking a look at the baby in the swaddle, suddenly saw the man turn his head, staring at her with a slanted eye, then staring at her belly, and then bringing back his line of sight with a hint of pride, without any intention of handing over the child.

  "......?!" Bai Xin's mouth twitched at the corner. What's with this expression, I'm not here to steal your son!

  She couldn't see the child, and she wasn't in a hurry either. As long as the child was born safely, that's all that mattered, and there would be plenty of opportunities to see each other later. Walking to the foot of the bed, she saw the nanny carefully wiping down Liu Xue Lan's body. There was no movement on the bed because it was blocked by a certain man, and only half of Liu Xue Lan's face could be seen. However, it was clear that the girl had fainted from exhaustion.

  "Congratulations to King Fengde for having a son, finally getting what he wanted. He's had a boy! Although a certain man is too cold and proud, Bai Xinzhi didn't forget to say the congratulatory words."

  Xia Li Xun finally lifted his head to look at her, with a hint of complacency in his eyes, nodded at her and suddenly said: "Remember to prepare the congratulatory gift for Princess Cheng."

  "……?!?" Bai Xin's face turned pale as she bit her lip, and then immediately looked down at her own belly.

  Damn it! Is there such a person? Has money gone blind?

  Didn't you see that she's also pregnant? Maybe they'll have twins and this guy will end up giving them an extra share!
