The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

Seeing that Mantou was still trying to stop Marquis Xuanping, Master Jiang Wu walked out.

Looking at Xie Shanglin standing at the foot of the stone steps, he cupped his hands and said, "Mother-in-law just gave birth, so father is a little anxious. If Lord Xie doesn't mind, you can go to the guest room to rest for a while."

Xie Shanglin raised his hand to straighten his clothes, then nodded and said, "If that unfilial son could be as knowledgeable and well-mannered as you, he might have a better life in the future!"

Master Jiang Wu smiled and said slowly: "The blessing of my father and mother-in-law is foreseeable, but Lord Xie..."

Jiang Nansheng married the daughter of his son and daughter-in-law. Looking at Jiang Nansheng's elegant and calm face, Xie Shanglin couldn't act like an elder.

When I looked up at him, I would smile unconsciously. But when I heard his next words, my face kept the same expression as before, and my whole body was stiff and stunned.

"After my father and his son were persecuted by Cao Zhen, it seems that no newborns were born in the Xuanping Marquis's mansion. Didn't Lord Xie ever suspect the reason behind this?"

After saying this, Jiang Wuye lowered his eyes and looked at Xie Shanglin. The faint smile on his face, the gentle look in his eyes, and the words he said made Xie Shanglin, who was in the middle of summer, feel as if he was thrown into the wilderness without any shelter.

The bone-chilling cold wind blew towards him from all directions, constantly penetrating into the gaps between his bones, making him shiver uncontrollably.

"You...what do you mean by this? What do you know?" Xie Shanglin spoke with some difficulty.

When Cao Zhen was alive, any concubine or maid who had served him in the rear house would be given a bowl of thick contraceptive soup early the next morning.

After his eldest son's health deteriorated, he also set his sights on women outside.

Unfortunately, in these years, the women in the harem could not get pregnant, and the women outside had never gotten pregnant.

Jiang Nansheng meant that the problem lies with him?

After watching the Xie family leave, Master Jiang Wu stood on the stone steps and did not go into the house again.

In the house, Gu Jinchu saw the Fifth Master standing in the yard. He waved to the wet nurse to take Nuonuo and Tuanzi downstairs to sleep, so that they would not be taken care of here.

The children were being looked after, so Qin Lang pushed open the partition door leading to the delivery room without hesitation and walked in.

Madam Zheng and Gu Jinchu each held a swaddling baby.

The two children were the same size as Nuonuo and Tuanzi at that time, only a tiny bit big when held in the arms.

It is red and wrinkled, with thick hair. When it cries, its voice is loud and healthy.

Madam Zheng sat sideways on the Luohan bed, raised her eyes and looked at the side. She smiled and said, "Oh! These two children will be easy to tell apart in the future!"

Gu Jinchu looked at his brother in his arms, trying to find similarities between him and himself. After hearing what his grandmother said, he turned his head to look at the child in her arms.

She also turned her body slightly to bring the two little ones closer. Only then did she understand what her grandmother meant.

One of them has a fair complexion like his mother, and the other has a fair complexion like his father, and was born with skin that looked like it was the color of honey.

At this time, the delivery room had been cleaned up.

Seeing her mother and Chu Jie'er carrying the child in, Zheng Mudan gently pushed Qin Lang in front of her and whispered, "Wipe your face quickly. It's so embarrassing for others to see you..."

Qin Lang wiped his face with his big hands, lowered his head and straightened his back.

Standing at the edge of the kang, he muttered, "Please trouble my mother-in-law to look after Mudan." Then he strode out the door.

Everyone's attention was on Zheng Mudan and the two children, and no one noticed his red eyes.

When Madam Zheng turned around, she only saw the hem of her son-in-law's flying fish coat and shook her head, "What are you doing in such a hurry? He hasn't even taken care of the two children yet!"

"Mom." Zheng Mudan called out Old Madam Zheng.

When both children were placed next to her, Zheng Mudan covered her face and cried as she looked at the children she had given birth to after ten months of pregnancy.

After Chu Jie'er was born, Gu Huanian and his mother realized that it was a girl. Although they didn't say anything, after her body recovered, they began to encourage her to give birth to their first son as soon as possible.

Until she divorced, the fact that she could no longer carry on the Gu family's bloodline was like a mountain pressing on her chest.

Seeing her daughter crying, Madam Zheng raised her hand to hold down her granddaughter who was trying to comfort her, and said softly, "Let your mother cry. Only when she cries out the pent-up anger can it be truly gone."

The two children were originally sleeping in their cradles, and were woken up by Zheng Mudan's crying.

Before his eyes opened, his little face was wrinkled into a ball, his face turned red, and he opened his mouth and started crying.

Each voice was louder than the last, as if they were competing with each other.

Madam Zheng was the most experienced and could already foresee how lively the Qin family's inner courtyard would become in the future.

Listening to the children's loud cries, Zheng Mudan picked up a handkerchief to wipe her face, then bent down and patted them gently.

Zheng Mudan was a little flustered at first, but when she saw her two sons in their cradles, she burst into tears and said:

"Mother, look at this boy, he is so ugly. How can he be so dark like his father?"

Madam Zheng smiled and said to her, "What can you tell when a baby is just born? I see that the eldest's facial features are very similar to those of the first sister when she was young."

The eldest son mentioned by Mrs. Zheng is the eldest son of Zheng Mudan and Qin Lang. The youngest son is the one with fair skin, who was born less than a quarter of an hour later than his brother.

When Gu Jinchu saw the two children still crying, he picked up the younger brother who was disliked by their mother.

He told the maid who was serving beside him to call the wet nurse over, as the children must be hungry by now.

He also asked someone to bring over some nourishing soup for his mother after she gave birth, so that his grandmother and mother didn't have to worry about anything, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

He talked with his mother for a while, and after she fell asleep, Gu Jinchu supported his grandmother and walked towards the west wing.

When she returned to the east wing, Mr. Jiang Wu was sitting under the lamp reading a book, waiting for her to come back.

The two children were lying beside him, their chubby white faces, sleeping soundly.

In the past, she always waited like this for Master Jiang Wu to come home. The sudden role change made Gu Jinchu a little uncomfortable.

She walked over and kissed the two children on the face.

When she looked up, she saw that Master Jiang Wu had sat up straight, his chin slightly raised, looking at her expectantly.

A smile welled up in Gu Jinchu's beautiful watery eyes. He pursed his lips slightly and leaned forward with his head lowered.

When Master Jiang Wu noticed her approaching, the soft look in his eyes turned deep and he stretched out his arms to hold her neck.

The kiss that Gu Jinchu was planning to place on his cheek landed exactly on his lips.
