City Lord’s Mansion.
A young man in black held the hand of a five-year-old child and arrived at the entrance.
The guard stopped them. “This is the City Lord Manor. No one is allowed to approach!”
Jing Yi looked at the little kid beside him and said to the guard, “He’s looking for his Grandma and mother.”
The guard said, “If you want to find someone, go to the government office. They will help you find them!”
Jing Yi said, “His Grandma is Granny Ghost.”
The guard did not believe him.
His companion whispered, “But this morning, Granny Ghost and her daughter-in-law did come to the City Lord Manor.”
Granny Ghost had a respected status on Thousand Mountains Island. Even the City Lord gave her some face.
If this little kid was really her grandson, they really could not afford to offend him.
At this moment, Xie Jinnian returned from outside.
He lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced at the two of them who were stopped outside. He asked the guard, “What happened?”
The guard said, “Second Young Master, that child said that he is Granny Ghost’s grandson and wants to go in to look for her.” Xie Jinnian’s gaze landed on Nie Xiaozhu’s face.
Nie Xiaozhu met his sized up gaze without any timidity.
Xie Jinnian asked the guard, “Did Granny Ghost come to the City Lord Manor?”
The guard said, “She’s here. He came with Madam Nie.”
Xie Jinnian said, “Call Steward Chang to identify them. If he’s really Granny Ghost’s grandson, bring them in.”
‘Yes!”
After the guard received the order, he immediately asked his companion to look for Steward Chang.
Xie Jinnian was about to put down the curtain of the carriage when for some reason, he glanced at the young man in black beside Nie Xiaozhu.
Jing Yi didn’t feel guilty and looked into his eyes.
Xie Jinnian lowered the curtain.
The carriage drove into the City Lord Manor.
Not long after, Steward Chang jogged over.
Seeing that it was Nie Xiaozhu, he hurriedly raised his face. “Young Master Nie, why did you come all the way here?”
Nie Xiaozhu glanced at Jing Yi and said to Manager Chang, “Looking for my mother and Grandma.”
Manager Chang said awkwardly, “Your mother and Grandma are busy… They don’t have the time…
Halfway through, Manager Chang met Nie Xiaozhu’s serious and stubborn gaze and smiled. “Alright, I’ll bring you in first. I’ll get someone to bring you to the residence to play later, okay?”
The City Lord Manor did not lack servants. They could still watch over a child.
“He’s…”
Manager Chang looked at Jing Yi again. This person looked unfamiliar.
Nie Xiaozhu said proudly, “My sidekick.”
JingYi added in his heart, “I’ll only do it for a day.”
Steward Chang brought them into the City Lord Manor.
At this moment, the Jade Pavilion was extremely busy.
The reason was that Granny Nie’s medicine woman was suddenly going to give birth.
The maidservants thought that Madam Ru would be angry and not like others giving birth in her courtyard. Unexpectedly, not only did Madam Ru not get anyone to move her out, but she also generously provided her with a small courtyard.
The Jade Pavilion had a total of three small courtyards. Madam lived in the main courtyard, and Madam’s daughter, Xiahou Yanyu, lived in the small courtyard in the east before she left the pavilion. The small courtyard in the west was a place for Madam to enjoy peace.
Other than the servants, no one usually came over.
Cai Lian instructed the maidservants to quickly tidy up a large room for Su Xiaoxiao to give birth. She even got someone to boil hot water and ginseng soup.
It could be said to be considerate.
Xiao Ruyan guarded here.
Cai Lian returned to the main courtyard to report to Madam Ru that everything had been settled.
Madam Ru said to Granny Ghost, “Granny Nie, I’m fine for the time being. Go see Doctor Qin first.”
“Yeah.”
Granny Nie stood up and left.
Madam Ru waited for the pain to pa.s.s before saying, “Watch her closely.”
Cai Lian nodded. “Madam, don’t worry. Everything has been arranged. As long as she gives birth to a son, I’ll immediately bring the child over. I’m just afraid…”
Madam Ru said with a solemn expression, “I can’t care so much now. I just hope that one of the two fetuses is a son.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Ru almost collapsed from the pain.
Logically speaking, it was not her first child, so it should be easier for her to give birth.
However, after giving birth to her eldest daughter back then, her body had been deficient for a long time. It took her a few years to gradually recover.
After that, she was also pregnant. Unfortunately, it was too difficult to give birth safely in the City Lord Manor.
Xiahou Qing’s G.o.dsons were a real piece of work!
Cai Lian hesitated and said, “As for Granny Nie…”
Madam Ru’s eyes turned cold. “Don’t worry, I have a way to make her listen to me!”
Granny Ghost went to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao was already lying on the bed.
Granny Ghost touched her stomach. “Lie down first. Call me when it hurts.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Granny, I have something to tell you.”
Outside the Jade Pavilion, Wei Ting saw Nie Xiaozhu and Jing Yi, who had been led over by Manager Chang.
“Why are you guys here?” he asked.
Jing Yi pushed the blame to Nie Xiaozhu. “He wants to look for Mom and
Grandma.”
Wei Ting asked, “Are you looking for your father?”
Jing Yi muttered, “Draw your sword!”
Steward Chang asked the maidservant to inform Madam Ru.
Madam Ru asked Steward Chang to bring him out to play.
Nie Xiaozhu did not go.
Madam Ru said impatiently, “Isn’t her mother in the small courtyard? Let him look for her!”
The small courtyard had a separate side door.
Steward Chang brought Nie Xiaozhu through the side door.
Wei Ting and Jing Yi were men and could not enter casually. They could only guard the door.
However, this place was already much closer than the entrance. They could hear Su Xiaoxiao’s voice.
Xiao Ruyan walked out and saw the unfilial son who came looking for her. She simply gasped.
She had already come to the City Lord Manor, but she still could not shake him off!
She reminded her son sternly, “Auntie Qin is about to give birth. Don’t cause trouble, understand?”
Nie Xiaozhu’s eyes widened.
Outside, Jing Yi was also shocked.
Xiao Ruyan walked out of the side door.
She looked at the two of them and said to Wei Ting, “Qin Su is about to give birth. Don’t worry, with my mother-in-law around, she and the fetus in her stomach be safe.”
Wei Ting understood that she could already tell that he was the husband of the little fat peac.o.c.k.
Wei Ting cupped his hands and bowed. “Thank you, Madam Nie and Granny.”
Xiao Ruyan said, “You’re quite calm.”
Wei Ting smiled.
Xiao Ruyan glanced at his trembling legs and the corners of her mouth twitched.
… Pretend she didn’t say it.
Granny Ghost was going to Madam Ru’s side. Xiao Ruyan returned to the house to take care of Su Xiaoxiao.
Wei Ting and Jing Yi stood upright at the side door with serious expressions.
Baby Jing said, “She’s giving birth.”
Three-year-old Wei said, “Yes.”
Baby Jing said, “I want to go in and take a look.” Three-year-old Wei said, “My wife. If anyone wants to see her, it’s me.” The two of them walked in hand in hand.
The maidservant shouted, “Hey, hey, hey, who is it? Get out quickly!”
The two of them retreated on their hands and feet.
Swoosh!
The two of them dodged to the sides at the same time. With their backs against the cold wall, they jumped up with their qinggong and flipped onto the roof.
They couldn’t walk through the door, so they could only jump through the window.
There was only one window. Wei Ting used the advantage of the Meteor Steps to seize the initiative and locked Jing Yi outside!
Baby Jing’s face darkened in a second!
“Sister Xiao, I don’t like ginseng soup. Why don’t you go to the kitchen and help me take a look? Is there anything else to eat?”
“Alright, I’ll go now.”
Su Xiaoxiao sent Xiao Ruyan away and was about to enter the pharmacy when Wei Ting came over.
Wei Ting bent down and gently held her hand, placing his forehead on hers.
Then the unthinkable happened..
