MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 133 Visit from old friends

Chapter 133 A visit from an old friend

 Shang Ji was really shocked by this news.

Although he also knew that he would be a father sooner or later, he had thought about how to make arrangements.

 But when I really waited for this moment, I had no ideas or plans in my mind.

 Very confused.

Du Jingyi couldn't help but chuckle when he saw him like this.

She had thought about this scene and her husband's reaction, but she never expected that he would be as stunned as a blockhead.

Shang Ji didn't turn around until she gently poked his arm with her finger.

 After taking a few deep breaths to calm down, he showed excitement that was beyond words.

 “I’m going to be a father!”

At this moment, Du Jingyi saw excitement and joy mixed in his eyes for the first time.

 He must like this child very much.

"Yes, the queen mentioned this matter to me a few days ago, and now I have really lived up to her expectations."

Shang Ji frowned a little, but soon understood.

“So the last time you saw my sister’s expression...it turned out to be because of what the Queen said.”

"Um."

 Slightly nervously, he stretched out his hand to touch Du Jingyi's flat belly, but his tone was full of solicitation.

 “Can I touch and see?”

“Of course you can, but it’s just that it’s still young. Aunt Dou said it will take around April or May before you can feel the baby’s movements.”

 After saying that, he put his hand on his belly.

 It’s warm and warm, no different from usual days.

 But Shang Ji's eyes turned into soft water at this moment, and he said to Du Jingyi.

"You can raise your baby with peace of mind, and I will definitely protect you."

Du Jingyi quite agrees with this. After all, with his current status, he can really count on his fingers those who want to embarrass him.

"Don't think about Mrs. Wei and the third wife's affairs. I'll make the arrangements. It's just a matter of cutting off the mess and sending them away together. Since you're pregnant, just take good care of it."

"No, General, the big net has been cast out, just waiting for the fish to jump in, I'm just using my brain, it's no problem."

Seeing that Shang Ji had no intention of relenting, Du Jingyi acted in a rare coquettish manner.

 “General…”

Shang Ji looked at her, but in the end he couldn't defeat her, so he had to compromise, but he still said with some caution in his eyes.

“Tomorrow I will send a team of secret guards to protect you, so you can feel more at ease even if I am not around.”

 “Okay, everything is up to the general’s arrangement.”

 Ever since he found out that Du Jingyi was pregnant, Shang Ji became nervous without knowing it.

It’s not that he was worried about her safety, but he had never witnessed the process of a child coming from nothing to being born, so he was a little uneasy.

 Originally, he could only come back in one day.

But everyone in Dongyuan was "sick". Under such circumstances, he simply rested at home and took care of everyone.

 Fortunately, all of his men are elite soldiers, and there was no war, so it was okay and nothing serious.

The petition for leave was delivered to the palace, and the news soon spread.

 A few days ago, when the Duke of Guo celebrated his birthday, it happened that Prince Fu trampled on the grandson of the Duke of Guo. Now Dongyuan is all sick again.

 Not long after, various rumors began to appear among the people.

 Some people say that the government has had a bad year this year, while others say that Shang Ji killed too many people and caused unrest in the family.

 Each one has his or her own explanation.

Shang Jicai, who was resting at home, ignored him and accompanied Du Jingyi carefully. If she wants to eat something sour today, there will definitely be something vinegary on the table.

 If she wants to eat something sweet tomorrow, she will even add some honey to the water she drinks.

 In short, just get what you want and live comfortably.

On this day, Du Jingyi stood in front of the standing bronze mirror and looked at himself.

His body, which was only less than three months old, seemed to look a little different from before. He touched his cheek with a slight sadness and said.

“I thought I would always be a slender beauty, but it turns out that I just gained weight. I guess there will be two of me in the future.”

Shang Ji heard this from behind, so he looked up and down very carefully, and then gave an affirmative answer.

 “Don’t worry, madam, I’ve seen my husband and I’m not fat.”

Du Jingyi didn’t believe a word of what her husband said.

So he waved to Cherry, and then pointed to the position of his waist.

“I remember when I wore this skirt last year, it was still **** wide, but now it’s all gone.”

 She was like a slightly irritable pregnant woman at the moment, troubled by her slightly changed figure.

Seeing this, Cherry smiled and replied.

“Don’t worry, young lady, even if you gain weight, you can still lose weight. Just look at our wife and you will know that she has given birth to two children. Aren’t they all equally slender?”

Du Jingyi felt much better when he suddenly heard the girl mention her mother. This was much more sincere than Shang Ji's answer just now, and it could directly and effectively eliminate Du Jingyi's worries.

Seeing the smile on her face again, Shang Ji raised his eyebrows behind his back.

 It seems that he still needs to practice more diligently in his ability to coax his wife.

While the couple were talking, they heard Luo Yuan coming in from outside, and then said.

“General, Madam, Madam Xing is here.”

 “Aunt? Please come quickly.”

"yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Mrs. Xing walking in minding her own business, looking at Du Jingyi with some anxiety in her eyebrows.

"Didn't you say you were sick? Why are you still standing up? I have been talking to the Queen in the palace these days. I just found out today that everyone in Dongyuan is sick, so I came over to see you. How do you do? Okay?"

 Mrs. Xing speaks neatly and simply.

There were a lot of crackling questions, and both Shang Ji and his wife were a little overwhelmed by this series of questions.

Cherry was still discerning, so she hurriedly offered a cup of tea and said with a smile.

 “Mrs.

 She came here by carriage and horse, and she walked quickly after getting off the carriage, so she didn't feel cold at all.

But Du Jingyi was afraid of the cold, so he took the tea cup and walked over to the silver charcoal to warm himself up.

Seeing this, Du Jingyi smiled and replied.

"I'm worried about my aunt, I'm fine, but there are rumors going around outside?"

“I don’t know whether it’s a rumor or not, but what’s going on?”

Mrs. Xing is not blind, so she can naturally see that Du Jingyi looks good.

 If such a person says he is sick, then about 80% to 90% of the people in the world will be sick.

 There was nothing serious at this moment, so why were you pretending to be sick? That's why she asked.

As a result, Shang Ji carefully hugged Du Jingyi and went to sit at the Eight Immortals table, as if he was caring for some treasure.

Mrs. Xing understood immediately.

　　I was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise.

 “Are you pregnant?”
