Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 339 - 331: The More Aunt Lu Thinks, the Happier She Gets—The Family Plans to Arrange Everything at Once
Aunt Lu shook her head: "But Miss Qing’er isn’t that kind of person, maybe it’s..."
Before she could finish, Yin Shuang lowered her voice and told them, "I think Miss Qing’er might be pregnant. It’s the General’s child, and if something were to happen, it’s a head-dropping matter. I wouldn’t dare have too much contact either."
"Pregnant?!"
Aunt Lu’s eyes widened instantly, looking over with a gossipy face: "Is it true?"
"I’m only less than three months pregnant, but her symptoms are exactly the same as mine back then, I definitely won’t be wrong!"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Lu thought it was a good thing for them as well.
"If Miss Qing’er is pregnant, the Ruan Family will surely be overjoyed. They won’t have much energy to focus on us, and it’ll be more convenient for us to expand outside."
The more Aunt Lu thought about it, the happier she got, and the family immediately started planning for it.
On the other side, at Jinsha Village’s house.
Nanny Fang brought over some filled sausages and fresh pig offal. Ruan Mian happened to have time and thought she hadn’t cooked in a while, so she decided to prepare a pig offal hot pot.
She also planned to make some marinated dishes, and the brine was already prepared.
Before the meal even started, the aroma had already spread throughout the village, especially attracting the neighbors who couldn’t help but come to the kitchen to see what new thing they were making today.
The fragrance was so delightful it made everyone salivate.
However, with such a strong aroma, Qing’er, who was helping in the kitchen, couldn’t stop vomiting.
Her face was full of discomfort.
Ruan Mian quickly helped her aside and inquired carefully.
Initially suspecting it was a cold, but upon taking her pulse, the unmistakable pulse of joy left Ruan Mian momentarily stunned.
Beside her, Mrs. Zhang, Cui Zhu, and others looked over with concern.
They thought something serious had happened.
"Mianmian, what’s wrong with Qing’er? Don’t scare me."
Seeing her sister’s serious expression, Qing’er also felt anxious but calmly said, "Sister, just tell me the truth, I can handle it."
Ruan Mian pretended to be serious, let out a deep sigh, and just as everyone was on edge, she suddenly smiled.
"Congratulations, Qing’er, you’re going to be a mother."
Upon hearing this, Qing’er froze in place, filled with disbelief.
Mrs. Zhang and Cui Zhu were overjoyed, Mrs. Zhang even grabbed Ruan Mian’s hand: "Mianmian, is it true? Our Qing’er is really going to be a mother?"
"No mistake, mother, you’re going to have a grandchild too."
"Our Qing’er is going to be a mother, and I’m going to be an aunt. But though the pregnancy is stable, it’s still early, the first three months you must take good care of yourself and rest at home."
"Avoid heavy and tiring tasks, keep up with early pregnancy nutrition, and adjust as needed later."
While Ruan Mian was still giving advice, Qing’er was already in tears, like a little girl, falling into Mrs. Zhang’s embrace.
"Mother, I’m going to have a child, aren’t I? But... but I feel like I’m still your child..."
Mrs. Zhang, full of comfort and smiling continuously, said, "You, even if you’re over sixty, you’ll always be my child! But you’re going to be a mother now, you need to be more steady."
Cui Zhu, with reddened eyes, added, "Yes, Second Miss, the General will surely be very happy knowing this! From now on, we’ll handle the cloth business, you just stay home and take good care of yourself!"
The joyous news soon spread to other family members, even Ruan Qingsong couldn’t concentrate on reading, uncharacteristically leaving the study, eager to be the first to ride to the barracks and personally share the good news with Huo Zong.
"It’s such great news, of course, I, as the elder brother, should personally tell the General!"
"Qing’er, you stay home and wait, brother will surely bring him back with me."
After saying this, he quickly grabbed some rations from the back kitchen, took a horse from the stable, and headed to the barracks.
Ruan Mian didn’t know how fast he was, but before evening, Huo Zong had already galloped back to the house.
Still in his unremoved armor, with a big smile and a flushed face, he burst into the house, shouting.
"Mother! Father! Sister! Where’s my wife?"
When Mrs. Zhang brought Qing’er out, Huo Zong couldn’t care less about manners, overwhelmed with excitement, he rushed forward and tightly embraced Qing’er.
"Wife! We are having a child, right? We’re really having a child?!"
Saying this, he cried tears of joy, everyone around laughed.
Looking at the scene full of happiness, Ruan Mian was extremely happy too.
She hurried everyone to sit, while she went to bring out the fragrant dishes she had prepared in the kitchen.
She even opened a jar of fine ginseng wine brewing.
But Qing’er could only watch them drink.
No one expected that soon after Qing’er’s wedding, they would be celebrating the joy of a new addition so soon.
In their happiness, they accidentally drank a bit too much.
Ruan Mian noticed the rain outside pouring harder and reminded Cui Zhu to support Shaoxi, so she wouldn’t fall on the way back.
But before she could finish the sentence, the sister-in-law, having drunk too much, slipped and fell into the mud.
Rui immediately called out to Ruan Mian, "Aunt! Look at my mom, haha, she fell and turned into a mud cat!"
Ruan Mian smiled slightly, called her brother to help their sister-in-law, and handed over a new oil-paper umbrella.
Once the family had mostly returned home, she also headed back to her house.
But since she had given the umbrella to her sister-in-law, she could only rush back quickly.
Just as she was about to start running, a tall figure suddenly appeared ahead.
It was blurry in the curtain of rain, and her vision was also blurred.
She blinked, her heart thudding with a sense of foreboding, her expression changing slightly.
"Ah Huai?"
The figure in her mind seemed to overlap with the current one.
Without thinking, she ran toward him!
"Ah Huai!"
She was amazed, grabbing his wrist and couldn’t help asking aloud, "Why are you back?"
However, upon touching the wrist, her face changed slightly.
At that moment, the person in front of her quickly supported her, saying, "Sister Mianmian, it’s me, Yun Xiu."
There was a hint of heartache in his eyes, seeing the disappointment in Ruan Mian’s gaze, he also felt uneasy. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Lord He was such a good man, yet he died because of villains!
He too harbored a grudge in his heart.
Not to mention Sister Mianmian.
He knew Sister Mianmian had deep feelings for Lord He. Even though she seemed to have moved on after his death, Yun Xiu felt that Sister Mianmian had never truly let go.
Besides mourning for Lord He, he also felt pain for Sister Mianmian.
