Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

Chapter 257 Keep it secret, be careful

The next morning, the sun shone through the gauze curtains and gently poured into Niuhulu's bedroom. The room was filled with a faint scent of incense, and everything seemed so peaceful and harmonious.

Cuiyun was well aware of the importance of today's mission. She got up quietly, avoiding the eyes and ears of the people in the mansion, quietly left the house, and set out on a journey to find a doctor for Niuhulu.

After some twists and turns, Cuiyun finally returned to the mansion with a doctor who was quite famous in the local area.

At this time, Niuhulu was finishing her breakfast with the help of her servants. She had a faint smile on her face, and seemed unaware of the good news that was about to be revealed.

Cuiyun bowed and then gently led the doctor to Nianhulu.

When the doctor saw that it was the once noble Nianhulu, he was surprised, but more of respect, and hurriedly followed Cuiyun to pay her respects.

Seeing this, Niuhulu quickly asked the doctor to stand up. Her voice was gentle but dignified: "No need to be polite. I have been feeling a little unwell recently and would like to ask the doctor to take a look at me."

She deliberately did not directly state that she was pregnant in order not to attract unnecessary attention.

Hearing this, the doctor quickly adjusted his mindset, stepped forward, took out a clean silk handkerchief from the medicine box, gently placed it on Niuhulu's wrist, and began to carefully feel her pulse. His expression was focused and serious, and he lowered his head from time to time in deep thought, as if he was exploring the mystery of life.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the only sounds in the room were the doctor's gentle breathing and beating pulse.

Finally, the doctor stopped what he was doing, bowed deeply to Niuhulu, and said with a joyful smile on his face: "Congratulations, princess. Although your pulse is still weak, in my opinion, you are pregnant, but the time is still short. The pulse will be more obvious in about a month."

When Cuiyun heard this, tears of excitement flashed in her eyes and she quickly followed suit to congratulate Niuhulu.

Niuhulu could hardly hide her joy. She gently stroked her still flat belly, as if she could feel a new life growing there, her eyes full of tenderness and kindness.

"Cuiyun, please give the doctor a good visit. He has worked so hard." Niuhulu said softly.

Cuiyun nodded in agreement and then led the doctor out.

Before leaving, she took out a heavy purse from her sleeve and quietly handed it to the doctor as a token of gratitude.

The doctor took the purse, his eyes full of gratitude. He thanked the doctor repeatedly and left Niuhulu's mansion happily.

Niuhulu stayed in the room, continuing to feel this sudden happiness and anticipation.

After seeing the doctor off, Cuiyun's steps seemed particularly brisk. She returned to Nianhulu's side with joy, her eyes flashing with irrepressible excitement.

"Princess, it's great that you have a little prince (or little princess). I am really happy for you!"

Cuiyun bowed deeply to Niuhulu again, expressing her inner joy and blessings.

Niuhulu smiled and nodded, but a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

"Cuiyun, we are about to set off to return to Beijing. There are many inconveniences on the road. Have you ever thought about whether I need to inform Fu Jin about this?"

She asked softly, with a hint of caution and consideration in her tone.

Cuiyun's smile faded after hearing this. She thought about it carefully and replied, "Gege, you are right. It is not as safe outside as in the mansion. If we make it known at this time, it will indeed easily cause unnecessary trouble. I think it is better to be cautious."

Niuhulu nodded and continued, "That's right. I'm still young and everything is not stable yet. If others knew about it, it would probably lead to unnecessary disputes and plots. We just need to be careful and return to the capital safely."

After hearing what Niu Hulu said, Cuiyun felt a little worried, but she also understood that this was the safest approach at the moment.

"Then, Princess, do you want me to send someone to deliver a message to the Fourth Master first to let him know the good news?" she asked tentatively.

Niuhulu shook her head slightly, with a hint of tenderness and expectation in her eyes.

"No need. I want to tell him the good news in person and choose a suitable time to give him a surprise."

She said softly, already beginning to imagine sharing this joy with Yinzhen.

Seeing this, Cuiyun said no more. She quietly retreated, secretly happy for Niuhulu in her heart. At the same time, she began to get busy preparing various necessities for the upcoming journey to ensure that Niuhulu and the future little prince (or little princess) could return to the capital safely and smoothly.
