Chapter 93: Climbing the wall?

  Reward for He Shi Bi, thank you for your reward and pink votes.

  When it came to giving birth, Xi Que's heart was annoyed, "Miss..." Her lips moved, she wanted to speak but stopped.

  Giving birth is a major event, she's really afraid that if something goes wrong and she dies, she'll be letting down Zhen Shiniang.

  But she couldn't bring herself to say it.

  "Don't worry, your pregnancy will be smooth sailing." Zhen Shi Niang patted her, "Although I won't be the one to deliver the baby, I'll still be by your side the whole time." She had a miscarriage back then because she was too young, and Ji Wu was two years older than her, so at this age, giving birth should be fine. "Just remember to move around more often in your daily life, so you won't suffer later on."

  Zhen Xiang's words calmed her down, and Ji Kuai's anxiety was swept away.

  “……Mrs. Li introduced two midwives, Li Daopo had been delivering babies for over thirty years and was very experienced but stubborn and superstitious; Cui Ma was more flexible but less experienced, which one to choose? ”As she spoke with He Xi, Zhen Shiniang fell asleep, lost in thought.

  The magpie tucked in her quilt corner, turned around and picked up the small clothes to move to the window, quietly sewing them together.

  Zhen Shiniang slept until the end of the late afternoon and woke up to find that Jian Weng and Jian Wu were not there, so she asked, "......how come they still haven't returned?"

  "She came back once and saw you sleeping, so she left again." The magpie put down the embroidery and got up to open the curtains.

  As soon as the sky turned dark, Zhen Shining frowned and said, "Wen Ge and Wu Ge have been a bit too wild these past few days."

  "Let me go and find out..." Qiu Ju poured a cup of water for Zhen Shi Niang and turned to leave.

  "Bring your scarf!" The magpie cried out.

  "Mother......mother......" Just as Qiu Ju was about to turn around, Jian Wu's panting voice came in, followed by a loud crash, and Jian Wu rushed in with a chill.

  "He fell down heavily." As soon as Jian Wu entered the house and rushed to the kang, Qiuju quickly came forward to help him take off his shoes and hat.

  He scrambled up onto the kang and threw himself into Zhen Shiyin's arms. "Mother!"

  Jian Wen also rushed over, "Mother!"

  The son's body was trembling with fear. Zhen Shi Niang was startled.

  What's wrong with Wen Ge and Wu Ge? They were fearless since childhood, what happened to them now?

  There seems to be an inexplicable fear emanating from deep within.

  Her heart was secretly thumping, but Zhen Shiniang didn't ask anything, only gently patted their backs, "Where did you go to play again? You're just back now?" Her voice was peaceful and soothing.

  The girl's body always had a calming quietness, tightly wrapped around him, Jian Wu and Jian Wen quickly calmed down. Jian Wen lifted his head. "We're going to Gou Zi's house."

  "Old Mrs. Yu said that the puppy almost died!" Jian Wu's eyes still had a hint of fear, "It even pulled down its pants."

  It was for this!

  They are all big kids, playing together every day. Suddenly hearing that it's inevitable to be afraid, Zhen Shi Niang took Jian Wu's hand and said, "Fortunately, the rescue was timely, Dogzi narrowly escaped death, and in the future, he will have great blessings and a long life."

  "Kids can die too?" Jian Wu muttered, his voice filled with a sigh that didn't match his age.

  In his impression, only adults would get sick and die.

  "King Yan's book of life and death never records age." Zhen Shiniang pressed her son's small face against her chest. "So, in the future, Wu Ge must not only be brave but also meticulous when doing things."

  "I understand..." Jian Wu's voice was low and muffled.

  Zhen Shiniang gave a signal with her eyes and let Qiuju pour water for them. Bring some pastries.

  Seeing the pastry, Jian Wu thought of something and jumped down from Zhen Shiniang's body to sit on one side. "Yu Bomu brought a lot of sugar!" From his pocket, he took out a big pile of colorful sugar cubes. Seeing Zhen Shiniang's face sink, he quickly explained, "I don't want it, Yu Bomu forced me to take it and told us not to laugh or make noise during meals, lest we choke." He pointed at Jian Wen and exposed him, saying "Brother has some too!"

  Since then, Zhen Shiniang did not allow them to go out and beg for things.

  Jian Wen's face also turned red, "We won't let you out the door if we don't get Aunt Yu." He also took out a handful of colorful candies from his pocket and obediently handed them over to Zhen Shi Niang.

  She's grateful that they saved her dog, so she's been extremely nice to Wen Ge and Wu Ge.

  Zhen Shining sighed, "......haven't you thanked Aunt Yu?" And then asked, "How's Dogzi? Is he still lying down?"

  Seeing his mother didn't blame him, Jianwu regained his spirits. "We're done, Dogzi had a big bowl of porridge at noon and was made to sit at home without being allowed out, Aunt Yu said he still has some cough."

  Always hurt the trachea, afraid to nourish for a period of time, Zhen Shiniang nodded and asked about the situation of the dog son. Jian Wu suddenly said, "Yu Bomu also asked who is the man in our family!"

  The magpie and chrysanthemum both jumped in fright, looked up at Zhen Shi Niang.

  Zhen Shining didn't even bat an eyelid, she picked up her teacup and took a sip of water, "What did Wu Ge say?"

  "I'm sure she's asking about General Shen." Jian Wu said with a hint of pride, "Just tell them he's my uncle!" Having such a great general as an uncle is really impressive.

  This silly kid!

  Everyone saw Shen Zhongge carry her back into the house with their own eyes. He said that, isn't it saying that she... uncle and aunt climb... wall...

  Zhen Shining nearly spat out a mouthful of water and started coughing violently.

  Jianwen's mother reacted violently, and Jianwen muttered unwillingly, "I said it was Big Uncle, but you insisted on calling him Little Uncle."

  Zhen Shining gave them a brain teaser but didn't solve it.

  Grandma's son is either an uncle or a big brother, he and Jianwu have always had different opinions, arguing without giving in, but Jianwu is overbearing, always taking the lead in everything, and being the older brother, it's not good to lose face in front of outsiders, hearing Jianwu say that was his uncle, he swallowed his pride at the time.

  At this time, seeing Niang and Xi Que's face changed, he guessed that Jian Wu's answer was wrong. That majestic Shen Jiang Jun is their uncle.

  "Wu Ge Wen Ge doesn't allow nonsense!" The magpie's expression changed.

  "... Brother Wen and Brother Wu have both returned. Go take a look at Feng Sha, and bring the dinner up once it's ready."

  After dinner, Jiǎn Wǔ jiǎn wén slept, and Xǐ Què approached Zhēn Shí Niáng, "Miss shouldn't have let them go out and talk nonsense, your reputation for this life is ruined."

  "After this, no one will ask them again." She felt that the Liang family had a favor to repay her, and this matter couldn't be made public. Zhen Shi Niang sighed, "When Wen Ge and Wu Ge were young, they would see other children with fathers but not them, and they would cry and make a fuss asking me where their father was. These past two years have been relatively calm, but if they knew that the general was their real father, Wu Ge's temper being what it is, he will definitely find ways to secretly acknowledge him."

  Jian Wu seems to listen to her, but as soon as he leaves her side, he becomes a fake king. He sincerely admires Shen Zhongge and is not being forced by her, otherwise he would have run to his side to flatter him long ago.

  How could this ready-made father possibly not acknowledge him?

  Compared with the pain of being separated from her flesh and blood, what does it matter that her reputation is ruined?

  Magpie asked persistently, "You said that General knows them and must take them back to the general's mansion?"

  Zhen Shi Niang shot her a white look, "With his overbearing manner, how could he let his own flesh and blood end up among the common people?" Even if he detested her, Jian Wen and Jian Wu were still his kin.

  Miss can also go back to General's Mansion with them!

  The magpie looked at Zhen Shiniang and her eyes sparkled, but after rolling the words over on her tongue several times, she didn't say them out loud.

  Zhen Shining saw through her intentions and said, "He's renovating the ancestral mansion to make me live out my days here, he has no intention of taking me back." Her expression suddenly turned stern. "Although I don't agree with divorce, I never planned on returning to General Manor either, from now on you're not allowed to have such thoughts!" Her voice wasn't loud, but it was rarely stern.

  She rarely warns magpies like this.

  However, magpies must understand that if they want to live a good life, they absolutely cannot have any improper thoughts.

  Otherwise, it will only lead to self-inflicted humiliation!

  Taking a step back, she could use Jian Wu's simple words to let Shen Zhongjie take her into the General's Mansion, but what about two years later?

  What if she can't cure her own illness, wouldn't that leave Jian Wu and Jian Wen in the wolf's den, at such a young age they would have to join forces with the wolves, even if they were lucky enough to survive, their personalities would definitely be distorted.

  A simple and unadorned life can be poor, it can lack paternal love, but it absolutely cannot have a twisted soul, growing into a psychologically dark social outcast, scum.

  Recalling Chu Xinyi's vicious and ruthless nature, Zhen Shiniang's eyes became cold and solemn.

  Even if she was seriously injured by rumors and slanders, she would never hand over Jian Wu and Jian Wen!

  On the fifth day of the New Year, Li Qizhen's wife came early in the morning.

  Thinking that in the future, when she really opened a medicine factory, she would still need Li Qi's couple to help her, and they also knew that she was actually Jian Dafu's wife. When Li Qizhi asked, Zhen Shiniang simply told her the truth.

  "...You're actually General Li's wife! All these years, you've been keeping it under wraps!" Mrs. Li was shocked and couldn't close her mouth.

  "My father was guilty, and our whole family was beheaded. I'm already lucky to have survived under the general's protection, hiding my identity all these years. How could I dare to reveal myself everywhere?" Zhen Shiniang lightly covered up the truth of being abandoned here for five years, "If he hadn't achieved great merit and received the emperor's edict, he wouldn't even dare to come see me now."

  The people of Wutong Town all sympathized with the mother and son's experience, once they knew she was abandoned here by Shen Zhongge, they would definitely scold him as ruthless and heartless.

  No matter what, Shen Zhongge was her son's father after all. Even if they didn't get along, she couldn't badmouth him in front of outsiders and make Jian Wu and Jian Wen feel ashamed to mention their father in the future, causing them to resent each other when they met.

  Li Qizhen's wife sighed for a long time, "......I really didn't expect General Shen to be such a sentimental person, he didn't even abandon you in that situation." She had seen many women who were abandoned or driven into the family temple by their husbands because of their natal family's downfall. In her eyes, when Zhen Shiniang's family was convicted and executed, it was all about clearing their name to show loyalty to the emperor, Shen Zhongjie should have divorced Zhen Shiniang too.

  But he risked his life to hide her in this remote town, reciting the husband and wife's righteousness!

  Zhen Shining was sweating profusely, could he really not let her go?

  A heartless and unfaithful man became a deeply emotional and righteous gentleman under her few words, Zhen Shiyin secretly ridiculed herself that this skill of turning the tables was truly refined.

  What a waste of talent if he doesn't get involved in politics.

  It's just that this lie was her own, she couldn't turn around and deny it now. She forced down the discomfort in her heart and changed the subject lightly, "After all, there hasn't been an official pardon yet, Auntie Li mustn't speak carelessly when she goes out..."
