Chapter 663: Suspicion (1)
Chu Lian seemed rather confused. She couldnt understand what Senior Servant Zhong meant by her words.
She turned towards Senior Servant Zhong with a dazed expression. Since they were getting along well now, why did they have to sleep separately?
Senior Servant Zhong coughed and tried to explain patiently, Third Young Madam, since youre pregnant now, you have to take care of your body. You and Third Young Master are both young, so it might be hard to control yourselves at night. If your activities were to harm the child, then it wouldnt be good, wouldnt it?
Senior Servant Zhong had already phrased it as directly as she could. If Chu Lian couldnt understand it even now, then she would be an idiot.
Chu Lians face immediately flushed red. That she had never thought of the problem of sleeping arrangements after getting pregnant.
While Chu Lian wasnt very willing to sleep separately, she had come from the modern world and she didnt know what the customs were here. She didnt know what He Changdis opinion was either.
Thus, she decided not to blindly make a decision now.
Chu Lian acted as if she was too shy to speak and refused to reply.
Senior Servant Zhong got a little antsy upon seeing that she wasnt replying, Third Young Madam, please listen to this old servant. The first three months of pregnancy are crucial, and its easy for accidents to happen at this stage. Furthermore, all noble families follow this rule.
The old servant was about to try persuading her further, when a low and menacing mans voice sounded behind her, No need. Just bring in a chaise for me next to the bed.
Hearing that it was He Changdi behind her, Senior Servant Zhong turned around in stunned surprise. Chu Lian looked up, clearly pleasantly surprised to see him.
The joy shining in Chu Lians sparkling eyes couldnt be hidden at all, they shone like two bright stars.
Facing her elated expression, He Changdi knew that his decision had earned his wifes favour.
Senior Servant Zhong gaped a little before replying reluctantly, Wouldnt that be too hard on Third Young Master?
Theres no need to say anymore. Ive already decided. He Changdis tone was resolute, leaving no room for anyone to change his mind.
Senior Servant Zhong shut her mouth and sighed inwardly. She was also happy for Third Young Madam, Third Young Master seemed to care for Third Young Madam more than she thought.
Understood, this old servant will make the arrangements now.
He Changdi waved his hand, If theres nothing else, youre dismissed.
Senior Servant Zhong bobbed in respect and was about to leave when He Changdi called out to her, Momo, keep the servants under control. Dont let the news of Lianers pregnancy out for the time being.
Senior Servant Zhong seemed to hesitate, Then the old residence
Ever since they had moved out from the Jingan Estate, for He Changdi and Chu Lian, the Jingan Estate had become the old residence.
He Changdi paused before shaking his head slightly, Keep it a secret from the old residence too. Well wait until Lianer hits two months and her pregnancy is stable, then Ill take Lianer personally to the old residence to announce the good news.
Senior Servant Zhong was thinking of persuading him otherwise, but when she thought back to Great Doctor Miaos diagnosis, she swallowed her words back down. Great Doctor Miao had said that they had almost lost the child in Chu Lians belly. If anything happened, and they told the old residence too early, wouldnt it just turn out to be false hope? The senior family members in the old residence might even blame Third Young Master and Madam for it.
Waiting until the pregnancy was stable before announcing it would be the best course of action.
Senior Servant nodded upon understanding the circumstances. She bobbed once again towards Chu Lian and He Changdi, before quietly retreating out of the room to manage the other maidservants.
Once Senior Servant Zhong left, He Changdi strode over to Chu Lians side.
He reached out with his powerful arms and slid them under her knees and back. He lifted her from the chaise in a princess carry, then settled onto the chaise with her on top.
He Changdi placed one hand on Chu Lians shoulders, while the other was placed gently on her belly.
His tone was filled with a soft warmth.
Lianer, were going to have a child.
Chu Lian was equally happy. She had been waiting for this little beans arrival for a few months!
Hubby, would you like a boy or a girl?
Chu Lian raised her head to stare into He Changdis soft gaze.
He Changdi bent his body over slightly to place a kiss on her smooth forehead, A daughter. It would be best if she looks like you, shell definitely be very cute.
Chu Lian puffed up her cheeks and glared at him, Youre just saying that to make me happy, right? Eldest Brother only has Little An and Little Lin, and Second Brother hasnt gotten married yet. Its not just Grandmother, but even Father and Mother are probably waiting for me to give birth to a boy!
He Changdi stiffened up, he hadnt expected Chu Lian to respond this way.
He thought back to what Great Doctor Miao had told him in private. The doctor had mentioned that pregnant women were more susceptible to changes in mood as well as emotions, and that he had to be more understanding and forgiving of his wife.
His brows relaxed and he stroked Chu Lians silky hair with one hand.
Actually, He Changdi had truly been speaking his mind. He did want a daughter for his first child.
When he thought of having a mini Chu Lian running around, his heart immediately melted into a puddle of mush.
Whether its a boy or a girl, theyll be our child, Ill treat them the same.
If the future little bun were to find out what his father had said today, he would definitely burst into tears and question his father.
A satisfied smile surfaced on Chu Lians face after getting He Changdis answer.
She was a modern person at heart and she didnt favour any gender in particular. No matter which gender their child belonged to, she would still guide and protect them the same.
Furthermore, it wasnt up to her whether she gave birth to a boy or a girl. If it didnt turn out to be a boy, then it was He Changdis problem.
