She seems like... her period didn't come this month.

It's already too late... five days.

In the past few months since she traveled across time to this body, her aunt has come to visit her on time every month.

But this month...it's five days late.

When I think about it at night, I feel nauseous and want to vomit when I smell the noodles.

Could it be...pregnant?

"Chunyu, come in." Xu Zhimiao called anxiously.

Chunyu came in quickly, "Madam, what's wrong? The prince told me to..."

"Go ask Uncle Wei to make a bowl of noodles like last night." Xu Zhimiao said anxiously.

Chun Yu looked confused, but didn't ask anything. She nodded repeatedly, "Yes!"

Xia Yue came in, "Young Madam, do you want to wash and change clothes?"

Xu Zhimiao acted as if he didn't hear anything. He lowered his head, looking thoughtful.

Seeing this, Xia Yue did not dare to ask any more questions. She just stood quietly aside, waiting for the young lady's instructions.

"What did you just say to me?" After a while, Xu Zhimiao finally reacted and looked at Xia Yue and asked.

"Young Madam, do you want to wash and change your clothes?" Xia Yue asked.

Xu Zhimiao nodded, "Oh, okay."

She didn't know why, but she particularly wanted to eat the bowl of noodles that Uncle Wei cooked last night.

Xia Yue went out and fetched some water.

After Xu Zhimiao washed up, she put on her clothes, sat in front of the bronze mirror, and let Xia Yue do her hair.

The ancient people's hair-doing is a technical job and she has no way of learning it.

Xia Yue had just done her hair when Chun Yu came in with noodles, "Madam, noodles."

Xu Zhimiao's appetite increased greatly, and he did not feel nauseous at the smell like he did at night.

She ate a big bowl of noodles until the bottom was reached, without even a mouthful of soup left.

Chunyu and Chunyue were stunned by what they saw.

After all, they have been with the young lady for some time, and they have never seen her have such a big appetite.

"Young Madam, the princess and the county lord are here." Qiu Shou came in and reported, "They are at the old madam's place now. Madam has also gone there."

"Well, I'm done." Xu Zhimiao put down his chopsticks and stood up, "Then let's go to grandma's Qing'anju."

He touched his stomach with a satisfied look on his face, "I'm so full!"

Uh... it seems... I have forgotten what my husband told me to do last night.

Do not be greedy.

……

Qing'anju

"Mother, sister-in-law."

"Grandmother, great aunt."

Mu Zhen and Li Wanru were calling out for help.

"Well, it's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay." The old lady looked at her daughter with a distressed look on her face, holding her hand and patting it gently, "It's good like this now."

"From now on, the palace will belong to you three, mother and son. No one will do anything bad to you again."

"Yes, yes!" Xi also looked relieved, "We were worried about you. We were afraid that Li Maoan would do something inhumane again."

"That's good now. God will decide for you and your son. Let Xu Yufan take care of him."

"This is just self-inflicted evil, you deserve to die!"

"During this period of time, you and your daughter can live in the Marquis' Mansion peacefully."

There was a custom in the Zhou Dynasty that when a married daughter lost her husband, her parents would take the widowed daughter back to live with her for a while after all the funeral arrangements were completed.

This is the love that my daughter’s parents have for her married daughter, and it also lets my husband’s family know that even though my daughter is a widow now, not everyone can bully her.

She still has her family to support her.

Today, Mu Zhen and Li Wanru, mother and daughter, were taken back to the Marquis' Mansion by Mu Changlin and Mu Shaochen, father and son.

According to the old lady's meaning, after the court session, the brothers Mu Changlin and Mu Erjin would go together to pick him up.

However, Murjin refused directly. He didn't even bother to find an excuse and just said he wouldn't go.

Now, the second wife has completely broken off relations with the first wife and the old lady.

The old lady and the first wife didn't say anything about this. Since they had already broken off relations, they just let it be.

When Xu Zhimiao arrived, everyone was having breakfast around the dining table.

Seeing her, Mu Shaochen quickly got up and walked towards her, "Why are you up so early? Didn't I tell you to sleep a little longer?"

Seeing how affectionate the two were, the elders were naturally happy.

Xu Zhimiao's face flushed slightly. "I couldn't sleep, so I got up. I heard that my aunt and cousin were here, so of course I had to come over."

"Aunt." She bowed to Mu Zhen.

Mu Zhen was naturally very satisfied with his niece-in-law Xu Zhimiao.

If it weren't for this niece-in-law, the three of them, mother and son, would have died.

He walked to Xu Zhimiao, held her hand, and asked softly, "What's wrong with your body? Why do you look unhappy? If I didn't take good care of you, I would have bullied you."

"You must tell us. All of our elders will definitely protect you."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Li Wanru nodded in agreement, "Not only the elders, but our peers will also protect my sister-in-law."

Xu Zhimiao smiled sweetly, "No, my husband treats me very well and will not bully me. Aunt is worrying too much."

"That's good, that's good." Mu Zhen smiled with relief.

"Come, Miaomiao, sit next to grandma and have breakfast." The old lady waved at her.

"Grandma, I...just ate a bowl of noodles in the house." Xu Zhimiao said a little embarrassedly.

"It's okay, just eat a little more." The old lady smiled happily.

Xu Zhimiao was pulled by Li Wanru to sit next to the old lady.

The old lady picked up a small steamed bun that she usually liked and placed it on the plate in front of her.

but……

"vomit!"

As soon as Xu Zhimiao smelled the faint meaty smell emanating from the steamed bun, he couldn't help but dry heave.

This made everyone very anxious.

Especially Mu Shaochen, he rushed to her side, squatted down, and said with a worried look on his face, "Why are you retching again? You vomited twice last night. You couldn't eat anything. Now you vomit again."

"Dongfeng, hurry up and get the court doctor!"

This time Xu Zhimiao won’t be able to say “no” again.

Dongfeng quickly went out to ask for the palace doctor.

The old lady, Mu Zhen and Xi looked at each other as they heard what Mu Shaochen said, as if they understood what he meant.

This... should be good news.

The court doctor came quickly and took Xu Zhimiao's pulse.

Then, just as the old lady and the others had guessed, the court doctor smiled knowingly and nodded continuously.

"How is it? What's the problem?" Mu Shaochen asked anxiously, "Uncle Chen, please say something instead of just nodding!"

"Sir..."

"Who is sick?" The court doctor was about to speak, but was interrupted by Murjin's puzzled and meaningful voice.

He and Mu Yiwen and his son walked towards this side. They bowed respectfully to the old lady and said, "Son greets mother."

"The grandson has met his grandmother."

"Uncle Xu, who is sick? Why did they ask you to come here so early in the morning?" Mu Yiwen looked at the court doctor and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes……"

"I asked him to treat your aunt." The old lady said in a deep voice, "What's the matter with you and your son?"
