Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 393: Perhaps She’s Already Pregnant

"Classes start on February 1? That means we’ll need to head to Jingdu City right after the seventh day of the Lunar New Year," Grandma Lin said, looking at the start date on the admission notice. She was already calculating what to prepare for the two kids.

Jingdu City is in the north, where winters are much colder than here. Thick blankets and warm clothing would need to be prepared. "Old man, we need to gather at least thirty jin of cotton in the next two months. We have to get everything ready for the kids," she urged, giving a nudge to her still-smiling husband.

Grandpa Lin snapped back to reality and nodded eagerly. The kids had done so well; they shouldn’t have to worry about trivial matters.

"Grandpa, Grandma, you don’t need to prepare anything. Jingdu City is the capital; they’ll have everything we need. It’ll be a three-day, two-night train ride. It’s inconvenient to bring too much stuff; we can buy what we need in Jingdu City," Su Yijia advised.

"Aren’t we taking a two-day, one-night trip?" Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin looked at her, puzzled.

Su Yijia smiled. "Kaize and I have been married for a while now, and it’s about time we visit his grandparents in the Northwest. When Uncle Xia came to propose, Kaize’s grandparents even sent me valuable gifts."

Though she didn’t lack money, the value of care couldn’t always be measured in monetary terms. Besides, she hadn’t met Qin Kaize’s relatives yet, and this was a good way to highlight their generosity.

Upon hearing this, the tension on Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin’s faces eased considerably. "We should definitely visit them. If possible, we can even celebrate the New Year together," Grandpa Lin nodded.

Getting into university, especially such good ones, deserved a face-to-face acknowledgment. They needed to show Ze’s grandparents the admission notices. The situation had changed; many people were returning from the farm.

Even though Ze’s grandparents hadn’t come back yet, it was only a matter of time. They had privately worried about Ze’s well-off background; they feared that wealthy elders might prefer their children to marry someone from a similar background.

Now hearing that Ze’s grandparents, even from the farm, had sent wedding gifts, it was clear they supported Jiajia and Ze’s marriage.

"After celebrating the New Year there, we’ll take our admission notices straight to the school. You both should come with us," Su Yijia said with a bright smile.

Grandma Lin felt a tug at her heart but quickly declined. "You’re going to be in college; you should be living on campus, right? Your grandpa and I won’t have anything to do in Jingdu City. It’s better for us to stay in Hu City. At least Gao is here to keep us company."

"But if you stay here and don’t accompany me, I won’t be able to focus on my studies! Plus, when we get there, we need to buy a big house. If you aren’t there, we’ll face a lot of trouble in Jingdu City," Su Yijia pleaded, leaning against Grandma Lin with a pout.

"Don’t you have to live on campus? Why spend that money on a big house? The houses in Jingdu City will be more expensive than in Hu City. You two are wealthy, but you’ll eventually have kids; you can’t waste money like that," Grandma Lin gently reminded her.

"I only have classes five days a week; I can come home on Friday nights and go back Monday mornings. Once they allow students to live off-campus, I’ll be the first to apply. That way, I can be with you every day," Su Yijia insisted.

She knew that universities at this time were strict about dorm living, but she was determined. There were important matters to handle in Jingdu City.

"I think you just want to see your husband every day," Grandma Lin teased, recognizing the young couple’s sweet relationship. She glanced at Qin Kaize, who had been silent.

"Grandma, just come with us. When the time comes, I’ll apply to move out. That way, we can all stay together in Jingdu City," Su Yijia suggested, not thinking much about the implications of living off-campus.

What was living on campus anyway? There was no way he’d sleep without holding his wife at night.

"Alright, alright, we’ll do as you say. But just the four of us. Ze’s grandparents might come too, so we don’t need a huge house," Grandma Lin relented, still a bit worried.

Recently, she had heard from Gao and Jiajia that Jiajia had bought two small buildings. After reclaiming Ze’s old house, she had also purchased nearby properties without hesitation.

Although they could rent them out for thirty or so yuan a month, who would rent a small building? They had many properties but had only rented out two.

If they went to Jingdu City, who knew how much they’d spend on multiple courtyard houses?

"Not just six! What if I get pregnant? We’ll need to prepare for at least two more children!" Su Yijia added enthusiastically, noticing her grandparents’ brightening faces.

Realizing she had secured her family’s support, she felt a twinge of jealousy about her diminishing status as the new baby took center stage.

Qin Kaize gently ruffled her hair. "You want kids that quickly?" His deep gaze reflected a mix of concern.

Su Yijia was taken aback. "You don’t want children?"

"Of course I want our children. But if you’re pregnant while studying, it’ll be tough. Plus, with so many people at school and me not being there, I wouldn’t be able to relax," he replied, gently squeezing her soft hand.

What he didn’t say was that arriving in Jingdu City meant facing Mu Xiaowei and Wang Fengsong, making it even riskier. They had already uncovered some information confirming that Wang Fengsong was behind Yin Zhenglin’s schemes.

That woman was ruthless. With a baby on the way, he feared even minor actions could jeopardize Jiajia’s health.
