Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1229: Chapter 1226: Growing Up

Still, Su Mei was calm and composed, quickly ordering, “Quick, go and inform the Old Madam and the Old Master, and also notify the young master and young miss.”

“Yes, right away.” Chun Xing chuckled foolishly and ran out at once.

After the doctor had written down the precautions and the medicinal recipes for nurturing health, Su Mei gave him silver and had the maidservants outside send him off.

Madam Liu arrived swiftly, her face brimming with smiles and a touch of surprise, “Ah Yu, are you truly pregnant? Did I hear that right?”

“Mother, please sit,” Ye Muyu spoke nervously.

Seeing her attempt to stand, Madam Liu quickly extended her hand to support her, “No, you are with child now, don’t concern yourself with me, Mother has nothing to worry about. What’s important now is that you take good care of yourself.”

“How are you feeling? I heard from the maidservants that you almost fainted in the front courtyard just now?” Madam Liu asked, full of concern.

Ye Muyu gently shook her head, “Mother, I’m alright. I didn’t know I was pregnant before, and I was overthinking things; there’s no serious harm. The doctor has already visited once.”

“Leave the matters of the residence to me, just focus on nurturing the baby. Don’t concern yourself with anything else; I’ll be at ease knowing you’re well,” Madam Liu said, her heart full of joy, her eyes tinted with happiness. She hadn’t planned on having another grandchild, yet to her surprise, Ah Yu was now pregnant.

Having more descendants is always a great joy for the family.

“Ah Heng would definitely be happy if he knew,” Madam Liu remarked.

Madam Liu asked Su Mei, “Did the doctor give any instructions on how to take care of her health?”

“Old Madam, the doctor mentioned that the lady is still in the early stages of pregnancy. She felt unwell today due to overexertion. The lady should remember not to overthink, rest more, avoid cold water, eat smaller meals more frequently, and he also provided some medicinal recipes for recuperation.”

“Very well, you all just take good care of Ah Yu. Don’t worry about the rest, I’ll handle the kitchen later,” Madam Liu was very concerned about this pregnancy, and she asked, then asked again if Ye Muyu was hungry.

Initially, Ye Muyu wasn’t hungry, but after being asked several times, she thought for a moment, “I would like some vegetable and meat porridge, not too much.”

“I’ll go give the orders right away,” Su Mei said, leaving with a happy expression.

It wasn’t long before Chu Ziluo and Chu Jin arrived.

“Mother.” The two children ran in quickly.

Chu Jin walked to the bedside, took hold of her wrist, and looked at her belly eagerly, “Mother, are you going to have a baby brother for me?”

“Brother Ah Jin wants a little brother?” Ye Muyu asked softly.

Although the news of the pregnancy was unexpected, and she had never planned on having children, the aversion she might have felt for this child was surprisingly minimal.

Perhaps, it was because it was Ah Heng’s child. Bearing a child for the man she loved was irresistible.

Even though she was utterly unprepared, her heart was gradually looking forward to it.

“As long as it’s a child you bear, either will do.” The ten-year-old boy, already quite tall, had a serious expression that made Ye Muyu smile a bit.

“But if it’s a little sister, Brother Ah Jin can’t be disappointed,” Ye Muyu teased.

Chu Jin thought for a moment, “Mother, can’t you have both a little brother and a little sister?”

Ye Muyu: “…” That was a high expectation.

“Mother, is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?” Chu Ziluo, now a young lady of thirteen, still had a youthful face, but it showed signs of her becoming a woman.

She sat properly by the side, her eyes full of concern, “Mother, can I stay and take care of you?”
