After Aunt Qian and An Yi came back, they gave Shen Jin a detailed examination, not only to feel the pulse, but also asked Shen Jin to take off her clothes, carefully looked at Shen Jin's belly, and confirmed that Shen Jin was pregnant with twins, so Firstly, the child's birth time might be brought forward, An Yi and the others hurry up and start preparing for the delivery room.
Because of her childhood experience, Shen Jin is the best at observing words and expressions, so when An Yi and An Ning were happy because of their twins, Shen Jin also noticed Aunt Qian's hesitation and worry.
"Aunt Qian, what's wrong?" Shen Jin didn't go around the bush, but asked directly.
The joy on An Ning's face suddenly froze, and she looked at Aunt Qian. An Yi also had a nervous face, but Shen Jin was the calmest one. Since she was a child, Shen Jin could only rely on herself. What she can do is also limited, until after she got married, she was carefully guarded by Chu Xiuming. Now that Chu Xiuming is not around, Shen Jin has returned to the situation before she got married, so Shen Jin knows that all she can do is to calm down .
Aunt Qian hesitated for a moment and said, "Although they are twins, I'm afraid that one of the children is too weak to feel their existence."
Shen Jin's face turned pale, and she subconsciously protected her stomach with her hands, "I know, Aunt Qian will do her best, and if there is something wrong, I don't blame you."
When these words came out, Shen Jin only felt pain in her heart, and her eyes turned red unconsciously, but she tried not to shed tears. Aunt Qian was relieved when she heard the words. She didn't know who Shen Jin was, but she also Seeing how much her husband attached to Shen Jin and the others, she said, "Then during this period of time, I will arrange for Madam's meals, as well as work and rest."
Shen Jin nodded and said, "Alright, let Anyi help you."
Aunt Qian agreed, and immediately went down to get ready. Anyi followed Aunt Qian to help her. Aunt Qian had to go to the pharmacy to find her husband, and explained Shen Jin's situation in detail, so that Dr. Qian could handle Shen Jin's situation. medicine.
Only Shen Jin and An Ning were left in the room, and An Ning couldn't help crying anymore, "Madam, let's send a letter to the general."
Shen Jin beckoned An Ning to sit beside her, and said, "Even if the letter is delivered, the husband will come again, it will be too late." This is true, from delivering the message to the border town, even if Chu Xiuming came over immediately after receiving the message, back and forth It will take more than a month, and with the heavy snow blocking the road, it will take at least two months. At that time, the child may be born.
An Ning looked at Shen Jin's belly. There were two children inside, including Master Dongdong's brothers or sisters. If one of them couldn't be kept, would Madam be able to hold it? An Ning felt that Madam could hold on, because she still had to protect another child, and there was Master Dongdong waiting for her in the border town, but even so, what would Madam do? Although An Ning had never given birth to a child, Mammy Zhao told them countless times that confinement is very important for a woman, and if she is not careful, she may end up with a lifetime of illness, madam... What if the root cause of the illness falls
At this moment, An Ning hated Emperor Cheng and King Ying's son to death, and also hated King Rui. If it wasn't for King Rui, Madam wouldn't have to venture into Beijing as a hostage. If they were in a border town, even if they were twins, they would be taken care of by the General and Mother Zhao. , it will be fine.
Apart from Emperor Cheng and the others, An Ning was also full of remorse. It would be great if she cared more carefully for Madam.
Shen Jin stretched out his hand to hold An Ning's hand, and said, "Don't worry, it will be fine."
An Ning bit her lip, her crying was not good at all, her whole face was distorted, "Ma'am..."
The corners of Shen Jin's mouth raised slightly, showing a shallow smile. Because she lost a lot of weight, the dimples on her face were less obvious. She held An Ning's hand and placed it on her stomach, "It will be fine."
"It will be fine." An Ning said.
Shen Jin smiled with crooked eyes, "Well, because they are my husband and my children."
An Ning nodded vigorously and said, "I heard that there is a temple on the nearby mountain that is very efficacious. I will go to burn incense tomorrow to pray for my wife."
Shen Jin complied, "Donate some sesame oil money for me."
"En." An Ning said, just in time to feel the child in Shen Jin's womb move, An Ning sniffed, not sure if she said it to herself or Shen Jin, "It will be fine."
Shen Jin didn't say anything anymore, but asked An Ning to take a book, and leaned on the cushion by the window to read it. When pregnant with Dongdong, Chu Xiuming often told Shen Jin and Dongdong in his belly about the art of war However, Shen Jin remembered some things and some didn't remember them, so she picked up what she remembered and told the children in her stomach, and occasionally she didn't want to think about it, so she just read this Shanhe Zhi, doing whatever she wanted.
An Ning didn't go to the temple to pray for blessings immediately the next day, and she didn't know who told her that she spent five days as a vegetarian, and then took a bath and changed clothes.
When it was snowing heavily in the town, it was also Laba. Anyi and the others made Laba porridge early on. Although it was not as refined as in the border towns, the taste was not bad. I brought home-cooked food, and it looked like a happy meal.
In the eyes of everyone, Shen Jin is an abandoned person, so it's not surprising that she hardly ever goes out. Besides, she has a rich aunt's face, An Yi and the others are good people, and the relationship between neighbors is good.
In a small inn, the bearded Chu Xiuming looked a little more downcast. He sat directly in the corner, ordered a lot of food, and ate with Jiasi. His movements did not have a trace of elegance. Somewhat rude and unrestrained, even people who know Chu Xiuming may not recognize him, because today is Laba, and the innkeeper gave every guest Laba porridge. The atmosphere in the inn is good, and many people sit together Chatting, most of the people who live here are businessmen who travel far and wide, talking in low voices about the border town, the son of King Ying and Emperor Cheng.
"I heard that in order to reassure Emperor Cheng, Mrs. Yongning Hou has come to Beijing as a hostage." One of the fat businessmen said, "Tsk, but King Rui and Princess Rui are both missing. I am afraid that Mrs. Yongning Hou will not be in the capital for a while." Better off."
"Who made Emperor Cheng doubt Yongning Marquis?" Another man in a bunt sneered, "Yongning Marquis has been guarding the frontier for so long. Seeing what he has done, he is not afraid of chilling people's hearts."
"Be careful, don't talk nonsense, so as not to cause trouble to your upper body." This person also kindly reminded, "But it's Yongning Houshu who is attracting attention."
Everyone started discussing each sentence, Chu Xiuming listened and glanced at Jia Yi, Jia Yi also pretended to be curious and asked, "Why haven't I heard any news from there recently?" Jia pointed at the Prince of England The location over there.
"Yeah, I haven't heard of it recently."
"I passed by there some time ago, and the security there has become much stricter. In the end, half of my cargo was confiscated. Bah, not only do you have to charge the city gate fee, but every time the toll fee is checked, the people who check the cargo are not clean. Yes, this trip plus the money from the up and down dredging, you can't make much money at all."
"It's not only you, but a brother of mine has changed his course, and now he's going to Minzhong. Since the Marquis of Yongning led people to suppress the bandits, it's much safer there, and there are a lot of seafood. He has made a fortune. But it is also very strict, and unfamiliar caravans are not allowed to enter the city at all."
"I heard that Minzhong is now managed by Prince Rui's son, and there have been many conflicts with Prince Ying's son."
"By the way, I heard that Emperor Cheng might die." This was said by a man who had drunk a little wine and was obviously drunk. If not, he would not have dared to talk about it, and said in a low voice, "Gong The chaos in the middle, those princes and grandchildren died one by one, tsk tsk."
"Let's not talk, let's talk." The sober person interrupted quickly, and said, "Let's have a few more drinks and then go to rest."
"Yes, this time the goods are sold out, and we can have a good year."
As soon as A accompanied everyone to drink, Chu Xiuming had already left. As soon as A went upstairs to the room they reserved, he made sure that no one was overhearing, then lowered his voice and said, "General, I am afraid that those people have already suspected that King Ying Is something wrong, Shizi?"
Chu Xiuming was not surprised. The Prince of England has been missing for so long and there is no news at all. It is strange that those people have no doubts. It is just that the death of the Prince of England has not been confirmed for a day in a short period of time. They dare not act rashly for a day, but they just don’t Dare to act recklessly against the border towns and the capital, but the internal parties have long been on guard against each other, and they have been drawn together and divided.
Jia Yi said, "General, it's snowing a bit heavy outside, do you want to take a break tomorrow and hurry on your way?"
Chu Xiuming nodded, thinking about the time when he would arrive in the capital. If there were no accidents, he would be able to catch up with Shen Jin's delivery. At that time, he wanted to stay by Shen Jin's side and watch their child be born. It's just that I'm afraid I won't be able to spend the New Year with Shen Jin.
It snowed continuously for several days, and when the snow stopped, they couldn't go on the road right away. They had to wait for the weather to get warmer, at least the ice on the road would melt, and Zhao Duan and the others were also in trouble, Zhao Duan was decisive The guides also complained to the inn, but their luck was even worse. The inn had no rooms. They pretended to be businessmen, so they had to pay more to make two rooms vacated, and a few people crowded in. The house used to be a pile of sundries and firewood, so it was not much better, at least there was a place to stay.
Zhao Duan and the others nestled here all day long, waiting for the snow to stop. Although they expected snow before they set off, no one expected it to fall so heavily. Zhao Duan sighed and looked at the white smoke that was exhaled. The place is about to suffer a disaster. Judging by the current situation of the imperial court, I am afraid that it will not be able to provide relief in time. I don't know how many people will suffer.
Even though they think so, Zhao Duan also understands that what they can do is limited, they can only wait for Chu Xiuyuan to ascend the throne, and Zhao Duan believes that Tianqi will be rich again at that time.
Chu Xiuyuan in the border town also made preparations in advance. The winter here in Japan is colder than other places, so they were not affected. It's just that King Rui, who had just arrived in the border town, couldn't bear it. I don’t go out, I keep warm in the house all day long, and I still feel sorry for my son. After knowing that my son has to go out to exercise every day even in winter, I want to call my son back. Princess Rui suppressed this idea as soon as I woke up. Unbeknownst to them, Shen Xi and Zhao Che had already left the border town with General Jin and the others, and went to raid the old dens of those barbarians.
