Chapter 106: Pregnant Twins, Male Child
The day Wanzhou left was the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, and it was still icy and snowy outside. Fortunately, she didn't have much stuff, so Huayang arranged for people to move it in three carts.
She had originally decided not to take Xue'er with her, as that was a gift from Ji Nanzheng. Now that she had left, there was no need to take away the things Ji Nanzheng had given her.
She asked Jiangnan to come over and take Xueer back to raise her for Ji Nanzheng.
But Xue'er was in Jiangnan's arms, screaming like a child who was forced to leave her mother, and Wan Zhou's heart trembled.
"Qiuge, take Xueer away." Wan Zhou finally softened his heart.
Qiu Ge was reluctant to leave Xue'er, so as soon as Wan Zhou let go, she quickly hugged Xue'er in her arms.
Jiangnan's mood was not much better than Xue'er's. Seeing Wanzhou was leaving, he didn't dare to ask, but he also knew that there was no way the daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion would live outside, unless she was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion.
Of course he didn't dare to keep him. He was just a servant and it was not his turn to do these things.
But in his heart, he felt very sad for Ji Nanzheng. The general had finally moved his heart, but the young lady left. What would he do when the general came back?
He walked on the snow, following Wan Zhou's carriage all the way, thinking that when the general came back, he could at least tell him where the young lady was as soon as possible.
Wan Zhou's new house was in the south of the city, two streets away from Hua Yang's house. It had three courtyards and a large garden, and Hua Yang had already arranged for people to tidy it up, even the servants to do the rough work.
Huayang sent Wanzhou to the door and said, "Miss, I won't go in. If you have anything, let Maodou come to me."
"Okay." Wan Zhou looked at Huayang with a heavy heart.
Huayang was really good to her. Whenever she needed him, Huayang seemed to be there. Sometimes she even thought that maybe Huayang was sent by her mother.
"Brother Huayang, there will definitely be a lot of disaster victims after this snowstorm. Please help me prepare some food. I will open a relief center when the time comes..."
At this time in her previous life, although she was sick and stayed at home, she had heard some of the things happening outside. After this heavy snow, Shangjing City was full of refugees, and the relief camps were overcrowded and could not accommodate all the people.
At that time, she donated supplies to the relief camp and provided porridge and meals herself.
In this way, I should be able to meet the emperor again.
It does sound a bit opportunistic, but as a human being, everyone should consider their own interests first. She benefited herself and others, so there is nothing to feel guilty about.
She was going to be a mother, and she had to create a relatively bright environment for her child. Even if she had to divorce by marriage, it had to be the kind of divorce that Gu Wanzhou wanted, not the kind that got her kicked out of the Duke's Mansion.
She may not be a great mother, but she cannot be a mother who makes her children lose face.
She asked for the divorce herself, so her child is not one that the Duke's Mansion doesn't want.
After hearing Wanzhou's plan, Huayang's originally gloomy eyes suddenly brightened up.
Although he has the confidence to let the young lady's children live a very comfortable life, the divorced woman will always be attacked by some unfair words, and the children will also be looked at differently. If the young lady has made real contributions to the people, it will always move some people, and the initiative of asking for a divorce can also block the bad words of those who have a sour grape mentality.
Huayang was amazed at Wanzhou's boldness and thought this was a great idea. At the same time, he was extremely glad that he had the strength to support the young lady's boldness and boldness.
He silently calculated in his mind that he had to earn more money and let the young lady do more good deeds that benefit both himself and the people, but he was still worried that he would not be able to build a good reputation!
"Miss, don't worry, leave it to me." Huayang felt relieved of some of the heavy burden, and his tone became a lot more relaxed.
"Miss, please go in quickly. It's cold outside. The doctor will come to check your pulse later."
It was indeed cold standing at the door, so Wan Zhou asked Huayang to go back quickly and she went into her new home.
Perhaps because he was finally free, Wan Zhou was extremely satisfied with his new home. From the room layout to the furniture, Wan Zhou was very satisfied.
As for the garden, it was covered with thick snow at this time, so it was difficult to see its features, but it looked quite large.
The autumn dove was as happy as a little bird, chirping non-stop.
After lunch, Huayang came with the doctor. He waited in the flower hall while Bai Lu led Old Monster Huo in.
Wan Zhou was very surprised to see the famous old monster Huo.
How could she be so fortunate to have this famous eccentric expert take her pulse? At the same time, she gained a new understanding of Huayang's abilities and connections.
Old Monster Huo was a skinny old man with a gray beard. When he was taking a patient's pulse, his eyes were slightly closed and his free hand kept stroking his gray beard.
Wan Zhou looked at him and had the illusion that he was not diagnosing his pulse, but was diagnosing the pulse of his beard.
Moreover, he stroked his beard endlessly, which made Wan Zhou feel very uneasy. It was not a long time, but it seemed to her like a long time, so long and painful.
When Old Monster Huo finally opened his eyes and withdrew his hand from taking Wan Zhou's pulse, Wan Zhou's heart was in his throat.
"Congratulations, ma'am. You're more than two months pregnant." Old Monster Huo said as he packed up the medical pillow.
Although he had expected it, Wan Zhou still felt a little disturbed when he heard Old Monster Huo confirm it with his own ears.
"Thank you, Doctor Huo." Wan Zhou thanked him softly.
You should call him "Old Monster Huo" behind his back, and call him "Dr. Huo" to his face.
"Madam is very lucky to be pregnant with twins."
"What, twins?" Qiu Ge's eyes widened as she asked, "Doctor Huo, does this mean twins?"
Old Monster Huo glanced at Qiu Ge with a stiff expression, as if blaming Qiu Ge for asking random questions.
He emphasized without any good temper: "Gemini, the zi in men."
"Does that mean two boys? Oh my God! Oh my God!" Qiu Ge was so happy that she seemed to be spinning in circles.
Even the calm Bai Lu was so surprised that he covered his lips with his hands.
Only Wan Zhou was confused.
Although the baby is still young, no one doubts the medical skills of Old Monster Huo.
She found it difficult to have one, let alone two? And both of them were boys?
Old Monster Huo is really a joke. How can this be considered a blessing?
Oh my god, she had fantasized before that she hoped it would be a girl, as cute and clingy as Cher.
It's a boy?
Wan Zhou suddenly felt that the baby in her belly was no longer sweet.
Bai Lu was happy and took the initiative to add another ten taels of silver to the medical fee for Old Monster Huo. Together with the money he had prepared before, the total was 60 taels.
But Huo Laoguai just glanced at it casually and said, "No need, someone else has paid for it."
Wan Zhou knew that it was Huayang who paid for it, so he did not insist and just let Bai Lu send Old Monster Huo out the door.
Bai Lu sent the man to the gate and then turned back. Outside the gate, Hua Yang took out a five-hundred-liang silver note and handed it to Old Monster Huo.
"Good work."
Old Monster Huo was not polite at all. He took the banknote and put it away immediately. His movements were so fast that he seemed to be afraid that Huayang would regret it and take it back. After putting away the banknote, he said with a bad face: "You bother me with a pulse diagnosis. It's really annoying."
Huayang smiled and said, "Why don't I give you another 500 taels? Then you won't be so annoyed."
"No, I don't want to be punished by God yet." Old Monster Huo bumped into Huayang like an angry child and walked forward.
He was determined not to come today. He and Huayang were friends, and if someone in Huayang had a serious illness, he would go to great lengths to take the patient's pulse. But how could he be asked to take the patient's pulse?
It was a task that any doctor could do, but asking the great Doctor Huo to go out in the cold weather was not the way to use his great talents for personal gain. So, he said angrily that he would never go out unless he was given 500 taels.
Unexpectedly, Huayang agreed immediately. It was too late for him to change his mind because someone had already put him on the carriage.
He is just an old man. He can kill people with his mouth, but his hands and feet are not very useful.
He has come, and he has to take the five hundred taels even if it goes against heaven and earth and his conscience.
