Chapter 934 Giving birth
Zhao Rui let go of Gu Yanxiao's hand: "So, you really like that senior brother?"

"Yes."

Zhao Rui laughed: "Okay, very good. What's the name of the senior brother you like? I really want to meet him."

"What are you doing seeing him?"

Zhao Rui: ...

You protected it so quickly?
She used to protect herself, but now it’s someone else’s turn.

This gap made Zhao Rui very angry.

The corners of Zhao Rui's eyes turned red: "You said so much, just want me to choose a concubine, right? Okay, I'll choose..."

Isn't it just selecting a concubine? He is the emperor. As long as he wants, he can fill his harem as quickly as possible.

Gu Yanxiao took a deep breath and said, "I told you this is your business, it has nothing to do with me! Now that we've finished talking, I'm leaving."

The court opened on the 16th day of the first lunar month. Without waiting for the court officials to persuade him again, Zhao Rui took the initiative to talk about taking a concubine and asked the Ministry of Rites to arrange the betrothal. As long as the conditions were right, anyone could participate.

When this news came out, the whole Kyoto was in an uproar. Families with daughters naturally started to prepare happily, and those who didn't have daughters also had relatives. Anyway, they just needed to squeeze someone in to compete, and if they could stay, there would be a future.

Gu Yanxiao was touching her aunt's belly when she heard the news.

"Aunt, didn't they take my pulse? Did they tell me if it's a boy or a girl?"

Gu Qingming said: "It doesn't matter whether it's a man or a woman."

"That's right, but if I knew, I could prepare clothes and toys for them more accurately. What if I prepare clothes for a girl and end up giving birth to a boy?"

"You won't buy them all?"

Gu Qingming: "As a sister, you are not allowed to be reluctant."

"Okay, okay, I'm ready."

After Gu Qingming finished speaking, he stole a glance at his sister-in-law who was sitting next to him, then signaled to Su Yixin with his eyes, asking her what to do.

This girl has been acting as if nothing happened since she heard the news that Zhao Rui was going to pay the betrothal gift. Has she really let Zhao Rui go?
But in the sect, she had also observed carefully that not only Chu Mo, but several disciples had a good impression of Xiaoxiao, and one of them even confessed his feelings to her directly, but she was rejected directly.

I don’t know if it was because he saw this disciple being rejected, but Chu Mo, who was definitely interested in Xiaoxiao, stayed by her side as a friend and never said anything else.

This girl's behavior is really hard to guess.

Su Yixin sent a voice message to Gu Qingming: "Forget it, the child is still young and has plenty of time. Since she has made this decision, we will respect her."

Gu Qingming nodded silently.

She was also worried about this girl, afraid that if she really regretted it after those women entered the palace, the two of them would really regret missing out.

The emperor is already twenty years old.

The Ministry of Rites finally agreed to pay the betrothal gift, which showed how fast it was.

The primary election started on February 20th and would take half a month. As soon as the first round was over, Gu Qingming's pregnancy started prematurely.

"Ouch, my stomach just hurt a little."

Gu Qingming was still eating, grimacing in pain. Baili Xingcai held Gu Qingming's stomach with a nervous look on his face and watched her expression.

"Yixin, is Ming'er okay?"

Su Yixin, who had given birth to three children, sat there calmly: "Wait, it might be false labor."

Although this is the first time I heard this word, I can still understand its meaning.

Gu Qingming laughed a few times and her stomach ached again. She laughed and said, "It's okay. It won't delay our meal."

After dinner, before the dishes were put away, Gu Qingming's stomach started to hurt again. Just like before, it came suddenly without any warning. It hurt so much!
“How long did it take since the first pain?”

Baili Xingcai replied: "It seems to be about two quarters of an hour."

Su Yixin: "Then observe for a while, maybe you should give birth earlier."

Sure enough, the pain came back regularly. Su Yixin gave instructions in an orderly manner and booked several midwives and doctors in advance.

Just give a call and people will arrive quickly.

A midwife said, "Madam, this is your first baby, so you can give birth. Everyone, don't stand there. Sit down and wait!"

After one day and one night, a daughter was born. According to their prior agreement, they named her Baili Yi, which means admiration.

Baili Xingcai jumped three feet high with joy and immediately passed the news back to the sect.

Baili Yucheng calmly asked his wife Zou Yunmeng: "What do you think about that kid? Is it a boy or a girl?"

Zou Yunmeng didn't buy Baili Yucheng's words: "If you want to know, go ask your son yourself."

"Didn't this brat tell you already? Why does he want me, his father, to ask him again? No, no, why don't you just tell me whether it's a grandson or a granddaughter?"

"Xingcai is already a father, and you're still calling him a brat. Do you think you can be a father?"

Baili Yucheng chuckled, "I am already the father of five children. Do you think I can be one? I am. These five are all bad boys, and they gave birth to a lot of bad boys for me."

"Then the brat you've been talking about can get what you want now!"

"You mean a granddaughter? Hahaha..." Baili Yucheng hasn't been so happy in a long time: "Finally a granddaughter is here. I also have a granddaughter."

Baili Yucheng said: "Should we go and take a look now?"

Zou Yunmeng rolled his eyes at Baili Yucheng and said, "Just going like this? We have to prepare everything. And the woman just gave birth and is weak. Let her rest for a day and go tomorrow. It will be a good time to prepare for the baby's third day bath."

If she hadn't given birth, I could have rushed over and done something.

Who knew that the baby would go into labor prematurely and has already been born. Even if I rush over now, I won't be able to help much. It's better to be prepared and go, so that I can really reduce the burden on Yi Xin.

"But if the child is left at the Gu residence for the third day bath, then only our Baili family can come."

Zou Yunmeng said: "It's great that we are the only family here."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

You need to notify other people first, and then prepare the things for washing.

In fact, everything has been prepared long ago, but they still need to check it again, delete what should be deleted and add what should be added. The baptism ceremony of their first granddaughter must be done properly.

They were happily preparing washing utensils, and the people in the Gu residence were very busy because Li Manxin started the work that afternoon.

When Li Manxin started contracting, Gu Qingxi used the sound transmission talisman to notify Gao Ge and Li Zhengzhen. The two arrived very quickly while Li Manxin was still in labor pains.

"Mom, it hurts!"

Gao Ge held Li Manxin's hand lovingly, and with the other hand she used to fiddle with her hair: "Mom knows, if it hurts, just shout it out, but giving birth is very strenuous, so try to save some energy."

Having a child is difficult even for those who practice cultivation.

Li Man was so distressed that her whole body was wet, as if a big hand had torn her lower body apart.

Gu Qingxi listened to the cries of pain from inside, clenched his hands into fists in a hurry, and paced back and forth at the door.
