Chapter 402: There is no fairness between legitimate and illegitimate children
"Aunt Lin is pregnant! Has anyone been sent to inform the prince?" Ji Chuhe asked immediately.
"Not yet. As soon as the palace doctor confirmed it, Aunt Lin asked me to report to Madam as soon as possible."
"I'll go see Aunt Lin now. Send someone to inform the prince." Ji Chuhe ordered.
"Yes."
"Madam, let me go with you." Dong Ling followed.
……
Lin Siyou sat on the chair, her hand involuntarily touching her lower abdomen.
She is actually pregnant!
It's like a dream.
She has a prince and children!
The ecstasy and happiness in her heart were about to overwhelm her.
"Auntie Lin, the lady is here." Ping'er reminded softly.
Lin Siyou immediately stood up to greet her, "Madam."
"No need to be polite." Ji Chuhe raised his hand to avoid Lin Siyou's courtesy. "How do you feel now? Are you feeling better?"
"Madam, I'm much better. At first I thought I was just feeling unwell, but I didn't expect you were pregnant." Lin Siyou's tone was full of excitement.
"Next, take a good rest and take care of your baby. I'll have someone send some nutritious food over later. If you want to eat anything, just tell the kitchen and they'll prepare it."
"Thank you ma'am."
Xiao Yanan walked in from outside. The person who was delivering the letter met him on the road, and he happened to be on his way back home.
When Lin Siyou saw that the prince came back so quickly, her sense of happiness increased a lot.
The prince must still cherish the child in her belly.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back so quickly.
Xiao Yan'an glanced at Lin Siyou, walked towards Ji Chuhe, and called softly, "Madam."
"Prince, Aunt Lin is pregnant. She needs to take good care of the baby and can't help you anymore." Ji Chuhe explained.
"Okay, I understand." Xiao Yan'an responded calmly.
"Prince, please accompany Aunt Lin. I'll go back first." Ji Chuhe prepared to leave.
"Aunt Lin, congratulations. Prince, I'll take my leave now." Dong Ling hurriedly followed the lady.
Xiao Yan'an looked at Ji Chuhe's departing back and did not take his gaze away for a long time.
Lin Siyou walked slowly to his side, took Xiao Yan'an's hand, and called softly, "Prince."
Xiao Yan'an turned around and asked softly, "Are you feeling better now?"
"Much better. Madam is worried about my health. Actually, I am not that weak. I can still help the prince sort out some things."
"No, I'll listen to my wife." Xiao Yan'an refused directly.
What Lin Siyou was afraid of was that once she became pregnant, she would not be able to be with the prince every day.
Her relationship with the prince is now at its most passionate. In fact, she doesn't want to get pregnant so early.
However, now that the child is here, she has to take good care of herself and give birth to the child.
After all, a woman still needs children to have support.
"Youyou, have a good rest. I have something else to do. Go to the study to get an account book."
"Okay." Lin Siyou reluctantly let go of his hand.
"Ping'er, serve well." Xiao Yan'an instructed Ping'er again.
"Yes." Ping'er responded immediately.
After Xiao Yan'an left, Ping'er helped Lin Siyou sit on the chair and gave her a soft pillow to lean on.
"Ping'er, you are so considerate."
"Aunt is pregnant now, so she naturally needs to be more careful." Ping'er responded with a smile.
However, behind her smile, there was a hint of regret.
If Aunt Xu had been able to get pregnant with the prince's child earlier, she wouldn't have suffered such a tragic end, right? I don't know why Aunt Xu couldn't get pregnant with the prince's child.
After Ji Chuhe returned, he asked Mianzhu to send some rewards.
Five taels of silver, two pieces of cloth, and some jewelry.
I have made great contributions by being able to expand the family and have descendants.
Generally, wealthy families will give rewards. After all, giving birth to a child is like walking through the gates of hell.
Ji Chuhe was even more generous when it came to rewards.
Dong Ling was delighted when she saw these rewards.
She was not jealous at all that Lin Siyou also received a reward from the lady.
She was happy because the lady let Mianzhu pick out the jewelry, but the rewards the lady gave her were all chosen by the lady herself!
In the lady's heart, she is still different!
Madam, you should love her a little more!
"Dong Ling, why are you smiling so foolishly?" Ji Chuhe turned around and saw Dong Ling smiling brightly, revealing two rows of small silver teeth.
"Compared to Aunt Lin, Madam loves me a little more. Just thinking about it makes me happy." After saying that, Dong Ling shook the colorful gold bracelet on her hand.
Ji Chuhe walked over and touched her bulging belly.
"You have to be good too, don't bother your aunt too much, and both mother and child will be rewarded in the future if they are safe."
Dong Ling patted her belly quickly, lowered her head and said to the child still in her belly: "Did you hear that? Madam is going to give us a reward! Both mother and I have to work hard to make ourselves proud!"
Ji Chuhe couldn't help laughing when he saw Dong Ling's appearance.
The wet nurse came in from outside holding You'er in her arms. When You'er saw her mother, she immediately stretched out her hands to ask her to hold her.
Ji Chuhe took You'er and pinched his little face.
You'er immediately smiled at her mother, but as soon as she opened her pink little mouth, saliva flowed out, revealing her two white, round little front teeth, which made her look even more adorable.
Ji Chuhe picked up a handkerchief to wipe off You'er's saliva, "It seems that You'er is going to grow teeth again."
You'er responded to his mother with babbling sounds and his saliva was flowing.
Dong Ling had long felt that Madam treated little Yuanbao differently, as if he were her own child. Madam had taken care of him personally since You'er was born.
"Madam, when I give birth to this baby in my belly, I will send it to you to raise." Dong Ling thought that the madam liked children.
As long as the lady likes it, all the children she gives birth to belong to her.
"You are so willing to do that! When you are born, if it is a girl, I will give her the name of my child, so that I can have both a son and a daughter. However, you can raise the child by your side. It is said that a daughter is a mother's sweet and caring little cotton-padded jacket, so I don't have to worry about not raising her. Don't worry, I love both children equally."
"Okay." Dong Ling nodded.
Anyway, whatever the madam says is what she does, and she will follow her madam's arrangements.
"Madam, what will happen to Aunt Lin's children in the future?" Dong Ling asked in a low voice. Without waiting for Ji Chuhe to answer, she hurriedly explained, "Madam, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean anything else. I'm just worried that as a concubine, all my children are registered under your name, and they become legitimate sons and daughters, while Aunt Lin's children are not registered under your name, and they are illegitimate sons and daughters. Will she feel that it is unfair?"
"What is fair in this world? Didn't I just say that if your baby is a girl, it will be registered under my name. If it is a boy, he will be a bastard. In my life, it is enough for me to have one son and one daughter under my name."
"I understand! This baby can't be a boy, it must be a girl. I will make sure my wife has both a son and a daughter!"
