It is an extremely happy and proud thing for a man to have a child in middle age, not to mention that General Zheng had been in bad health for decades. Now that he is old, he is happy again. How can he not be ecstatic?

After sending the doctor away, he treated Aunt Qiu like a treasure:

"Someone, take all the fishy and smelly things off the table, or they will make your aunt feel irritated!"

Seeing that many of the furniture in the house had sharp edges, he immediately ordered people to wrap them up. He also called the butler and asked him to go out and buy thick carpets to lay them in all the places that Aunt Qiu would pass by in the mansion.

Such a grand occasion made Aunt Qiu feel embarrassed, and she hurriedly persuaded him to just lay the mat in the room.

Zheng Yuannai came back to his senses and saw his father like this. He should have smiled and congratulated him, but he couldn't say it.

My heart was filled with sourness as if ten jars of vinegar had been overturned. I didn't even eat and just sat there feeling unhappy.

On the other hand, Wei's eyes were sparkling.

She had gradually come to understand what was going on.

Seeing how happy my father-in-law is, it is definitely not the case that Aunt Qiu is cheating on him with this child.

What does this mean?

This shows that he, who had been sterilized for many years, has regained his fertility!

Apart from the two bottles of magic dew given by the temple master more than a month ago, she couldn't think of anything else that could produce such magical effects.

Although she didn't dare to say it, she knew it in her heart. She had taken several concubines for her husband, but none of them were able to give birth, which showed that the problem was with her husband.

So...if her husband can take some more elixir and restore his body to the health of an ordinary man, she can also get pregnant!

By then, no matter whether it is a son or a daughter, there will be hope in this life!

When she returned to the room with her husband, she couldn't help but tell him this idea immediately.

"Husband, we must do our best to fulfill the mission entrusted by the abbot this time, so that we can have a chance to obtain the celestial dew again!"

Zheng Yuannai's sadness slowly subsided.

Many children, many blessings.

My father must have felt very sad as he is the only child of his own for so many years.

Now that you finally have a younger brother or sister, it is natural to be happy.

He is an adult already, how can he be jealous of an unborn baby?

Moreover, what the lady said was right. As long as he completed this task well, the abbot would definitely reward him with elixir.

By then, he will have his own children.

At that time, the father will have to spend more time with his wife and children, and he will definitely be very lonely.

Isn’t it nice to have a younger brother or sister to accompany your father so that he can enjoy family life?

Thinking of this, he no longer cared and began to think about how to utilize the power of the wealthy businessmen in Yangzhou City to contribute as much as possible to the disaster relief.

All believers are busy preparing for the impending severe flood.

Only Old Madam Yuan from the Censorate knew nothing about this.

The last time Old Lady Qin came to visit her to inform her of the news, she was not at home. She had gone with Mo Niang to Zhenbaozhai to choose jewelry for the wedding.

Censor Yuan came back before her. When he learned that the abbot of Cihang Temple suddenly wanted to summon believers, he thought it must be no good news, so he directly asked the doorman to conceal the news.

On the first day of August, Old Madam Yuan went to burn incense as usual. When the other believers saw that she did not come last time, they thought that she was not so sincere. Besides, they did not want another person to steal the credit, so they tacitly did not tell her.

Old Madam Yuan was fully focused on preparing for her granddaughter's marriage and did not notice anything unusual.

As the wedding date approaches, Mo Niang in the mansion becomes more and more anxious.

Two days before her wedding, Mo Niang was so anxious that she couldn't sleep at night.

She was not good at communicating with others, let alone fully integrating into a strange family. It was scary no matter how you thought about it.

When Old Madam Yuan heard about this, she felt very distressed and comforted him:

"Mo Niang, don't be afraid. Your future husband has a good character. As long as you are of one mind with him, think about him in everything, and never leave him no matter how hard it is, he will definitely not let you down."

"Look, isn't that how your grandfather and I were? We lived in harmony all our lives."

As he spoke, he told Mo Niang a lot of past events with Censor Yuan.

After listening to this, Mo Niang gradually felt at ease.

Young couples grow old together, and the consideration, indulgence and love of her grandparents gave her a little more confidence in her life after marriage.

The wedding day is approaching in the blink of an eye.

Although the wedding banquet at Censor Yuan's residence was not luxurious, it was lively and grand.

All the prominent families in Nandu City came.

The only thing that was not perfect was that it rained on the wedding day. Although it was not heavy, according to folk sayings, it was a bad omen.

However, there is nothing that can be done about it. Since the beginning of summer this year, it has rained heavily every other day. I heard that places like Wuchang Prefecture in the middle reaches have never seen sunny days.

We are very lucky that there was no heavy rain today, which would have soaked the wedding party.

Mo Niang's husband, Sun Herong, lives in the east of the city. Although it only has a small courtyard with two entrances in a not-so-good location, there are many guests today and it is very lively.

After all, he married the granddaughter of the former Prime Minister and the current Right Censor-in-Chief. Even though Sun Herong passed the imperial examination at a young age, it was still a very remarkable thing in his circle.

Sun Herong's classmates, teachers, juniors, clansmen, neighbors, and even the yamen runners and officials of all ranks in charge of the area all came to attend the wedding banquet.

There were so many people that the small yard couldn't accommodate so many banquets, so they had to set up a tent with oilcloth outside.

As the groom, Sun Herong was naturally very proud.

Although his mother, Cao, was as kind and gentle as ever and spoke softly, there was a gleam of satisfaction in her eyes from time to time.

There are those who are jealous and can't help but say sour words:

"As the saying goes, a rich family marries off their daughters and a poor family marries their wives. I'm afraid Miss Sun from this second-rank official's family is not easy to serve!"

Cao's eyes flashed, and then he lowered his eyebrows and said pleasingly:

"That can't be helped. She has such a good family background and married into our Herong. We can't let her suffer any injustice."

Some women who have daughters-in-law were furious at her weakness and immediately advised her to stand up and not let her daughters-in-law control her.

Cao always said:

"This is not good."

"No, my son has a hard time studying, I can't make it difficult for him."

Those who like to meddle in other people's affairs found the conversation boring and could only change the subject.

Some sensible families also felt that Cao was a kind-hearted person and would definitely be a good and gracious mother-in-law in the future.

Although Miss Sun from the Right Censor-in-Chief's family married into a lower class, she was extremely blessed.
