Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

The atmosphere in the courtyard froze instantly when Yinzhen spoke. Everyone's eyes were focused on him, waiting for his reaction.

Yinzhen slowly scanned the room, and finally his gaze stopped at Niuhulu. He asked softly, "Niuhulu, is what you just said true?"

Niuhulu felt Yinzhen's gaze and felt nervous and excited. She knew that this moment had finally arrived and she was about to share the good news with Yinzhen.

So, she took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and slowly said, "Master, I...I am pregnant."

As soon as the voice fell, the courtyard was silent for a while, as if even the wind had stopped blowing. Yiya, Li Gege and Wu Gege exchanged a knowing look. They had already learned the news from various channels, and at this moment they were just quietly observing Yinzhen's reaction.

Song Gege's face showed shock. She was obviously unaware of this and was trying hard to digest this sudden news.

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen was stunned at first, and then a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

He confirmed again: "Really? You...you really have it?"

Niuhulu nodded shyly, her voice as thin as a mosquito: "Yes, sir. I had already noticed it before, but the pregnancy was not stable at that time, so I didn't dare to tell you rashly, for fear of being disappointed. Now that time has passed, I have confirmed that it is correct, so I dare to tell you."

By the end of her speech, her eyes were slightly red, and she seemed to feel guilty for hiding the truth.

When Yinzhen saw this, the joy in his heart had already overwhelmed all his doubts and dissatisfaction.

He gently patted the back of Niuhulu's hand and consoled her: "What have you done wrong? This is a great event in our family, and I am so happy. Just rest assured and take care of your pregnancy, and don't worry about other things."

At this time, Yi Ya stood up and apologized to Yin Zhen with a guilty look on her face: "My Lord, it was my fault for not finding and taking good care of my sister Nianhulu in time. Please punish me."

Yinzhen quickly helped Yiya up and said in a gentle voice, "Fujin, what are you talking about? There are so many affairs in the palace, how can you take care of everything? Besides, Niuhulu's pregnancy is a great joy, what crime have you committed? Stop blaming yourself."

As he spoke, he pulled Yi Ya to sit down together. Seeing this, the others also sat down. The courtyard once again returned to its former warmth and harmony.

At this moment, both joy and surprise turned into smiles on everyone's faces.

"Sister Niu Hulu, this is great news!"

Yi Ya's voice was filled with genuine joy. She gently raised her glass and saluted Niu Hulu. "Congratulations on becoming a mother. This is the greatest joy in our house. If you need anything, just send someone to the main courtyard to find me. I will do my best to help."

Upon hearing this, Niuhulu's eyes turned slightly red. She quickly stood up and bowed to Yi Ya, with some excitement and gratitude in her voice.

"Thank you for your care and blessing, Madam. I will keep it in my heart. Please rest assured, Madam, I will take good care of myself and the baby in my belly and live up to everyone's expectations."

Yi Ya nodded with satisfaction, then turned her gaze to the maids around Niuhulu, her tone becoming more serious and admonishing.

"You must also do your best to take good care of Princess Niuhulu. You must be extra careful with her diet and daily life, and there must not be any mistakes. When she gives birth safely, I will reward you handsomely and will never treat you unfairly."

The maids all nodded their heads when they heard this, their eyes flashing with seriousness and expectation. They knew that this was a great opportunity for them to show their loyalty and ability.

"Today is a happy day. To celebrate the good news of Sister Niu Hulu, I have decided to reward each courtyard with one month's monthly allowance, and Sister Niu Hulu's courtyard will be rewarded with an additional three months' monthly allowance."

Yi Ya's words rang out again, like a spring breeze, making everyone present feel her generosity and kindness.

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused a sensation. The servants knelt on the ground one after another, shouting in unison: "Thank you, Madam, for the reward! Congratulations to the prince! Congratulations to Madam! Congratulations to Princess Niuhulu!"

Their voices were full of gratitude and joy, and it seemed as if the air was filled with a sense of warmth and harmony.

Yi Ya smiled and waved her hand to signal everyone to stand up, then sat down again and enjoyed the sumptuous banquet with everyone. At the banquet, because of the good news of Niuhulu's pregnancy, the atmosphere became both subtle and warm. Everyone either raised their glasses to celebrate or talked in low voices, sharing their joy and blessings.

Although the topic revolved around Niuhulu and her children from time to time, the whole banquet was filled with laughter, making people feel a rare sense of relaxation and joy.

Time passed quietly without anyone noticing, and the banquet was gradually coming to an end.
