After the general's wife was reborn, everyone knelt down and begged her for mercy.

Jiang Bonian was confused as he listened to the officials from the Ministry of Rites read out the imperial edict. County Lord? Why did he suddenly become the county head? He couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Ning Ruyan, and a bad feeling began to spread in his heart.

Ning Ruyan didn't care about Jiang Bonian's thoughts. She happily accepted the imperial edict devoutly. With this imperial edict, she would be guaranteed in the future. Then, she should get rid of the child in her belly.

"Madam, you..." Doctor Sun looked at Ning Ruyan with disbelief on his face, "This is a lie, this is..."

"Doctor Sun, I know what you are worried about." Ning Ruyan nodded, "Then do you know who the biological father of this child is?"

Doctor Sun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly shook his head: "Miss, I don't want to know, I will do as you say." After speaking, he sighed, "Who made me owe you?"

"I'm sorry." Ning Ruyan bowed, "But I can't help it, this child is innocent."

"I understand." Doctor Sun nodded, "It's just that I have a merciless request."

"You said."

"I want to leave the capital with my wife."

"I'll arrange it so you can go to Gusu." Ning Ruyan nodded.

"Okay." Doctor Sun nodded.

The next day, when Ning Ruyan was visiting Jiang Bonian and having lunch with him, she suddenly felt nauseated.

"What's wrong? Doesn't this food taste good?" Jiang Bonian hurriedly put down his chopsticks.

"I don't know. I've been feeling tight in my chest lately." Ning Ruyan shook her head, "Maybe it's the hot weather."

"Then you have to see a doctor. By the way, where is Bai Zhi?"

"Baizhi has medical skills. With the situation in the house, I have to ask her to go to the drug store for consultation. At least I can subsidize a little... But it's better now. At least I have a salary, so my life will be easier in the future." Ning Ruyan shook her head. , but suddenly started retching again.

"We have to take a look." Jiang Bonian hurriedly asked Yu Qing to invite someone.

Not long after Yu Qing went out, he met Dr. Sun who came to examine Huo and brought him directly.

Dr. Sun glanced at Ning Ruyan, then opened the medicine box, took out the pulse pillow, and diagnosed Ning Ruyan's pulse: "Congratulations, sir, madam, you are very happy."

"What?" Jiang Bonian was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Really? How long has it been?"

"It's only been a little over a month, and the pulse is not very obvious yet." Dr. Sun frowned slightly, "It will be clearer in another half a month, and if I am not wrong, it should be twins. "As he said, he stood up and clasped his fists, "Congratulations, uncle and madam. It's rare to have a second child. It will be a great blessing from now on."

"Second child? That's great." Jiang Bonian was instantly excited. If it had been more than a month, it would have been the time with him, then this child would be his.

"Don't get excited, your arms and legs haven't healed yet." Ning Ruyan hurriedly stopped the other party from coming over to hug her, "It's better to be careful and take care of it. If there are any sequelae, it will be troublesome."

"Ruyan, I knew you were worried about me. I'm just so happy." Jiang Bonian's eyes turned red.

Ning Ruyan smiled and lowered her eyes. The happy things were yet to come. She couldn't help but stretched out her hand to touch her belly. She was almost three months old, and she would be pregnant in another half month at most. Fortunately, Dr. Sun was smarter. , said it was the second child.

"In this case, I will prescribe an anti-fetal medicine first." Doctor Sun said, got up and wrote a prescription and handed it to Yu Qing, "Just take three doses and drink them for three days. I will come back three days later. Remember not to overwork yourself during this period. It’s best to stay in bed, after all, twins are more dangerous than singles.”

Yu Qing glanced at Jiang Bonian and saw him nodding, so he turned around and left with the prescription.

"Wait." Ning Ruyan stopped Yu Qing, "Go to Baicaoju, the medicinal materials there are of better quality." Jiang Boyian nodded again, and Yu Qing ran out with the prescription.

"Then I'll go back first." Ning Ruyan also stood up. Now that she was pregnant, she could avoid the other party's request to have sex with her. She was really unwilling to deal with it.

"Forsythia, take good care of me." Jiang Bonian nodded.

That night, Jiang Bonian went to greet Huo and told her the news of Ning Ruyan's pregnancy: "Mom, Ning is pregnant with twins. The Jiang family has a baby."

When Huo heard this, she immediately smiled. She was worried that her son would have no descendants. Although she didn't want to see Ning, it was always good to have descendants.

The next day, Ning Ruyan also came over to greet Huo after breakfast.

Huo looked at Ning Ruyan with a little expectation.

"Mom, you also know that I'm pregnant, right?" Ning Ruyan put her hand on her belly and looked at her with a smile.

Huo Shi nodded.

"This will be the eldest son and grandson of the Jiang family." Ning Ruyan sat down in front of the bed, "Are you happy?"

The corners of Huo's mouth twitched, but he couldn't reveal a complete smile.

"But this child is not Jiang Bonian's." Ning Ruyan approached Huo, "But he doesn't know that he still helps my adulterer raise the child."

"You..." Huo's eyes widened instantly, and she raised her hand tremblingly, as if he wanted to eat her.

"Don't worry, although the Jiang family doesn't have much property, it will all belong to my son in the future." Ning Ruyan smiled and reached out to hold her hand, "You have to live well and look after your Jiang family. How it disappeared little by little."

"You...you vicious woman..." Huo suddenly shouted, her eyes seeming to pop out.

But Ning Ruyan stretched out her hand to hold her chin and gave her a sip of ginseng soup: "If you are so angry, it will be too easy for you."

Huo could only continue to stare, his chest rising and falling violently.

"Mother, have a good rest. I'll come see you tomorrow." Ning Ruyan straightened her skirt, turned around and walked out, "Take good care of the old lady."

Aunt Yuan agreed.

However, early the next morning, before Ning Ruyan got up, the housekeeper came over to spread the news that Huo had disappeared last night.

"Isn't it fine?" Ning Ruyan looked sad, "Why..." Then he ordered the girl to pack herself up and hurried to Shoukangyuan.

Only two months after the Jiang family removed the mourning hall, they had to set up a mourning hall again.

However, because their financial resources were not as good as before, Huo's funeral was much simpler than Jiang Changgong's.

That is to say, at the funeral, the Wu family and her daughter, who had been kicked out before, came back and returned to the Jiang family as Huo family members.

Xu Yingying was already three months pregnant, and her belly was obviously bulging. Therefore, in front of the mourning hall, Jiang Bowen asked to marry Xu Yingying as his wife. (End of chapter)
