Chapter 313 Continuous Good News
"As you command, let's start with the princess."
Doctor Wang answered respectfully, and the princess then handed the little treasure in her arms to Nanny Cheng, extending her right hand with a calm expression.
After a careful pulse diagnosis, Doctor Wang smiled with satisfaction, "Princess, your recuperation over the past year has been quite effective. If you continue to maintain this regimen, your health will surely improve."
The princess smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words, imperial physician. Please also check on my son and daughter-in-law."
Fan Yanmu's pulse was the same as always, showing vigorous vitality.
As for Xiao Zhixue, Doctor Wang followed the usual practice and examined her carefully, first on the left and then on the right.
"Congratulations, Princess, congratulations to the Crown Prince and the Princess. The Princess is pregnant and is about a month pregnant."
As soon as Doctor Wang finished speaking, the whole hall was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.
The princess smiled so hard that she couldn't stop. "That's great! That's great! Doctor Wang has worked so hard. Nanny Cheng, quickly prepare the red envelope. We need to reward Doctor Wang well."
The princess could not hide her excitement. Her eldest grandson was not even a year old yet, and she had received good news. Xiao Zhixue was truly a virtuous daughter-in-law who brought prosperity to the family, especially in terms of continuing the family line, bringing continuous good news.
Fan Yanmu was also very happy. His efforts over the past few days had finally paid off, and a new life was about to join this warm family.
Xiao Zhixue was still immersed in shock. She had never thought that the several tender moments with Fan Yanmu would once again give her the "gift" of life.
Haochen was born in the spring, but who would have thought that a new life would be born in the cold winter?
Her original plan was to consider having a second child next year, but now it seems that things are unpredictable and the second child has come quietly without her noticing.
However, since fate had arranged it this way, she accepted it calmly. Besides, with the protection of the spatial spiritual spring, raising a healthy baby would not be a problem. She only hoped that this time it would be a caring little princess.
After Doctor Wang left, Fan Yanmu returned to the hall with a happy face.
The princess was gently admonishing Xiao Zhixue: "This is your second child, you should know all the things to pay attention to, so I won't nag you any more. You two should also be careful, Mu'er, why don't you move to the study first."
When Fan Yanmu heard this, he was puzzled. Why did his wife let him go to the study when she was pregnant? This didn't happen when she was pregnant last time.
"Don't worry, mother. I know what to do. Don't worry. I will take better care of my wife."
Fan Yanmu's tone was firm, and his eyes were full of care and commitment to Xiao Zhixue.
At night, everything was quiet. Xiao Zhixue lay on the bed, tapping the edge of the bed with her fingers, silently calculating the pregnancy period.
According to time calculations, the child was conceived around the end of September or the beginning of October, and the expected date of delivery is between June or July next year.
"Hey, what are you thinking about? It's like you're settling an account."
Fan Yanmu asked curiously, not knowing that he was about to bring about an "unprovoked disaster".
Xiao Zhixue curled her lips, and the unbearable hot postpartum period next year appeared in her mind. A feeling of irritation rose instantly, and without thinking, she slapped Fan Yanmu's arm.
Fan Yanmu was completely confused by this blow. He didn't know what was going on. Why was he treated like this when he was just talking?
Fortunately, he had always been strong, and this palm strike did not cause any real damage, but only left a light red mark on his arm. He smiled bitterly.
That night, Xiao Zhixue tossed and turned. While she was full of expectations for the future, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
As for Fan Yanmu, although the sudden slap made him laugh and cry, his heart was still full of happiness and expectation when he thought about the new life that was about to come.
"Wife, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere, or did I do something wrong to make you so unhappy? Tell me, and I will definitely change, without any ambiguity."
Fan Yanmu frowned slightly, his eyes were full of concern, and there was a hint of urgency in his tone.
There was a hint of sadness between Xiao Zhixue's eyebrows, and her voice was soft with a hint of helplessness: "I just calculated the time. Our little one will probably be born in the middle of next summer, at the end of June or the beginning of July. It will be a hot summer day, so hot that it will be hard to breathe. When I think about having to spend the month in such weather, I feel mixed emotions. I don't know what to do."
When Fan Yanmu heard this, he showed a bit of confusion on his face. His eyes stayed on Xiao Zhixue's face, looking a bit innocent: "Wife, how can you blame me for this? The arrival of the child is not something we can control. I also hope that he can be born healthy."
Xiao Zhixue was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips. She knew in her heart that she could not blame him, but at this moment, her inner anxiety and uneasiness still made her temporarily lose her mind.
She gently pulled Fan Yanmu's hand, let him lean on the bed, and carefully lifted his shirt. Seeing the slightly flushed skin, her heart softened and tears welled up in her eyes.
She realized her impulsiveness and felt regretful.
Seeing this, Fan Yanmu's heart tightened. He quickly sat up, hugged her gently, and said softly, "Wife, don't cry. I don't blame you for hitting me. On the contrary, I think it reminds me that I should think twice before doing anything in the future and not follow my temper. I understand your intentions."
With crystal tears in her eyes, Xiao Zhixue looked at him in surprise, her voice trembling slightly: "Husband, do you really... understand me?"
Fan Yanmu's eyes were gentle and full of doting: "I try my best to understand. After all, we are one. I've thought about it. Our lives in the future do need more planning. Try to avoid letting you suffer in the hot summer."
He paused and continued, "But for this child, let's just let nature take its course. As for the hardship of confinement next summer, I will bear it with you and won't let you face it alone."
Xiao Zhixue was moved by Fan Yanmu's words and burst into laughter: "Okay, I'm fine now. It was my fault that I couldn't control my emotions. I will be more careful in the future. We will face it together."
When Fan Yanmu saw her smile, he felt relieved.
He remembered that when Zhixue was pregnant for the first time, her mother told him that pregnant women's emotions were often volatile and asked him to be more understanding and tolerant.
At this moment, looking at Xiao Zhixue falling asleep, his heart was filled with pity. He gently covered her with the quilt, then slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep together.
The next morning, as the light of dawn appeared, Fan Yanmu had a simple breakfast and hurried to the Anyang Marquis' Mansion.
Xiao Wang had already gone to court, Fan Mingrui was busy dealing with the affairs of the mansion, and Xiao Yuyu was in the study in the front yard, discussing academic matters with several classmates.
Upon learning of Fan Yanmu's arrival, Fan Mingrui became puzzled. It was so early, could something have happened to Zhixue?
"You came here so early. Is there something wrong with Zhixue?"
Fan Mingrui asked with concern.
Fan Yanmu smiled and replied, "It's not a discomfort, it's a happy event. Zhixue took my pulse last night, and the doctor confirmed that she has been pregnant for more than a month."
When Fan Mingrui heard this, he was delighted: "Did you invite Doctor Wang?"
Fan Yanmu nodded: "It is Doctor Wang. Mother found that Zhixue is sensitive to the smell of fish, so she immediately asked Nanny Cheng to invite Doctor Wang."
