Chapter 516 Pregnant?
Chapter 516 Pregnant?
Qin Wan Ning was checking the account book. She saw Su Ling standing at the door of the hall out of the corner of her eye, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"Yue'er! Why didn't you let me know when you came so I could go and greet you!"
Su Lingyue chuckled and said, "If you don't come to see me, I will come to see you naturally!"
Qin Wan Ning held her hand, looking aggrieved, "Hao Yue Er, I'm really too busy recently and don't have time. I will definitely go to the palace to see you when I have time."
Su Lingyue pulled him into the hall and asked, "What are you busy with?"
Qin Wan Ning said, "Since Second Aunt took charge of the household, I have been in charge of all the accounts in the mansion. My younger sister has returned from her hometown to prepare for her wedding, so naturally I have to take out her dowry separately. I have been taking inventory of the storehouse these days and organizing her dowry."
The first wife, Mrs. Jia, did not originally come from a prominent family, and her dowry was just average.
But He Qianqian is going to marry the prince this time and become his principal wife, and in the future the empress, so naturally she cannot fall behind in the dowry.
It seems that other people in the He Mansion are still unaware of the plan of Tutor He and Xiao Yu.
Su Lingyue could understand why Tutor He did this.
Breaking off the engagement with the crown prince is a serious matter. In serious terms, it is defying the imperial decree and is treason.
It would be fine if the He family could keep their composure, but if they lose their composure and spread the news of the broken engagement, the entire He family would be executed.
Although Su Lingyue believed in Qin Wanning, just in case, she did not plan to tell Qin Wanning about what Xiao Yu and Master He were planning.
"Even if you are busy sorting things out, you should still take a proper rest. How are you these days?"
Qin Wan Ning smiled and said, "I have been taking the medicine you sent me on time. My hands and feet are no longer as cold as before. I feel much better."
Seeing the smile on Qin Wanning's face, Su Lingyue remembered the sad look on Qin Wanning's face when she said she wanted to denounce Jia. She wondered what happened to her later.
"Has the matter been investigated?" Su Lingyue asked.
Qin Wan Ning suppressed her smile, with a faint smile on her lips, seeming helpless.
"I did intend to ask for an explanation at my younger sister's welcoming banquet. But with my grandfather in bed, there is no one in this mansion who can uphold justice. Or if my grandfather is in good health, what does that mean?"
Qin Wan Ning's eyes were indifferent, as if she was talking about something insignificant. "Jia's lifting of the house arrest must have been approved by my grandfather. Apart from him, my husband and my father-in-law are closer to her. If I bring up the matter again, everyone will say that I am unreasonable and ignoring the overall situation. Yue'er, the best time has passed. If you and the prince continue to intervene in this matter, you will also be criticized."
She sighed softly, with a mixture of relief and helplessness, as if she was speaking to Su Lingyue, or as if she was trying to persuade herself.
"I've been thinking a lot lately. Life has to go on. Apart from this incident, Yulin and others haven't been harsh on me. Compared to many people, this is already good. Maybe I should be content and not dwell on one thing. Since pursuing this matter won't bring me any benefits, I want to try to let it go and try not to associate with Jia's."
This was Qin Wanning's life. After careful consideration, she decided not to pursue the matter, and Su Lingyue naturally supported her.
"Have they given you any trouble again?" Su Lingyue asked Jia and He Qianqian.
Qin Wan Ning nodded, and soon raised the corners of her lips again: "Jia Shi has been picking on my faults intentionally or unintentionally these days, but the fact that Jia Shi drugged me is also her handle. After two beatings, she tries to avoid me when going in and out."
In the future, she can use this to control Jia, and even gain guilt from her husband and father-in-law, which may not be a bad thing.
For example, helping the second aunt manage the household.
From now on, even if Second Aunt is not allowed to be the head of the family, the pair of cards will not easily fall into Jia's hands.
Hearing that Qin Wan Ning was beginning to cheer up and fight back, Su Lingyue was sincerely happy for her. "This is a newly made medicine. I thought you were almost finished with your medicine, so I took the time to send it over today."
Chunyan took the box from Caidie's hand.
As he spoke, he pulled Qin Wan Ning's wrist and began to feel her pulse. He placed his fingertips on her wrist and pressed again and again.
Seeing the solemn and inquiring expression on Su Lingyue's face, Qin Wanning asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Su Lingyue probed for a long time before she let go of her hand and said in disbelief, "Wan Ning...you are going to be a mother!"
"What?!" Qin Wan Ning was stunned, "I, I'm going to be a mother?"
"Well, you are going to be a mother. The child is more than a month old." Su Lingyue's face was full of joy. She held Qin Wanning's hand tightly to help her confirm the reality.
"Yue'er, I'm going to be a mother!" Qin Wanning let go of Su Lingyue's hand, touched her still flat belly, her eyes trembling.
Qin Wanning's body had been severely damaged before. Although Su Lingyue had helped her to recover, they did not expect that a child would quietly grow up in Qin Wanning's belly so soon.
Gently stroking her lower abdomen, Qin Wan Ning still felt it was so unreal. She was afraid that all this was an illusion, so her movements became more gentle.
The long-awaited child is now growing up quietly.
Looking at Qin Wanning sitting there, with even her hair emitting a gentle aura, Su Lingyue finally let go of the worry that had been hanging in the air for a long time.
In her previous life, Qin Wan Ning was tortured to death because she had no children. Now she has a child, and He Yulin has not taken a concubine.
Everything has really changed!
Looking at Qin Wanning's happy face, Su Lingyue's eyes became slightly moist.

The two were feeling moved when He Yulin walked in from outside, wearing a dark green official uniform that made him look gentle and elegant.
Seeing He Yulin, Qin Wanning didn't care that Su Lingyue was present, she stood up and hugged He Yulin tightly.
He Yulin was happy at first, but his face immediately turned red when he saw Su Lingyue sitting in the hall.
He patted Qin Wan Ning's back and said softly, "A Ning, the princess is still here!"
After coming to her senses, Qin Wan Ning let go of He Yulin.
Qin Wan Ning has always been dignified and reserved, and she never acts like this in front of outsiders. He Yulin pulled Qin Wan Ning and asked with concern: "A Ning, what's wrong?"
Qin Wan Ning didn't say anything, but just smiled gently and took He Yulin's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen.
He Yulin stared at his hands in a daze, then looked at his wife with eyes full of tenderness. An idea came to his mind, but he found it unbelievable.
Seeing his incredulous look, Qin Wan Ning chuckled and said, "Husband, we have our own child."
What he wished for came true. He Yulin's jade-white palm gently stroked Qin Wan Ning's belly, his expression gentle and loving, his eyes reddened. He did not care about Su Lingyue and the maids in the room, and directly hugged Qin Wan Ning tightly, choking and murmuring: "A Ning, it's great! It's great! We have our own child!"
With a husband and the child she had always dreamed of, Qin Wan Ning hugged He Yulin, a tear of happiness in her eyes.

After talking things out with Grand Tutor He, Xiao Yu's worries over the past few days disappeared.
In the court, Su Heng has been given the maximum space to perform. He hopes Su Heng will not let him down.
It has been more than half an hour since I came to He Mansion. I have to go to Li Mansion later. I wonder if Su Lingyue and Qin Wanning have finished their chat.
Xiao Yu ordered Yan Qing, "Go and see if the princess has finished talking?"
"Yes, Your Highness." Yan Qing glanced at Doctor Lu before walking out of the yard.
In Qinfang Courtyard, Qiu Wen walked to the door of the hall and saw Qin Wan Ning and He Yulin hugging each other.
She immediately lowered her head and wanted to leave, but then she remembered the handsome young man waiting outside. She stopped and said softly, "Sir, Madam, Prince Su's guards are outside the courtyard, asking when the princess will return home."
The two then let go and smiled at each other with red eyes.
