Chapter 802: Powerless Chapter 802: Powerless Editor: Atlas Studios Helpless, Qi Haoran gently patted Mu Yangling’s head and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong?
Are you feeling unwell?
I’ll summon the imperial physician.” Mu Yangling grabbed him and told him not to call for help.
As she cried, she shook her head.
“I’m not feeling unwell.
There’s no need to call for them.
It’s all my fault.
Back then when life was tough, I’ve even lay in the snow to hunt in the winter and I was perfectly fine.
I even plowed the fields under the vicious sun without getting any headaches or fevers.
It must be because life is too good these days, that I’m suffering a loss of appetite from the hot weather.
How would I know that you’ve done so much for …” Of course, Qi Haoran wouldn’t bla Mu Yangling.
In his opinion, all of this was the baby’s fault.
He hugged Ah Ling in his arms and said hatefully, “It’s not your fault.
It’s all because of our unborn child.
When he’s born, I’ll smack his butt.
Even his big brother wasn’t as mischievous as him.” As Mu Yangling hugged Qi Haoran’s waist and cried, his heart ached but he could only pat her back comfortingly.
By the ti Mu Yangling stopped crying, his clothes were all wet.
He looked down and saw that Ah Ling had already fallen asleep lying on his chest.
Qi Haoran heaved a sigh of relief and carried her to the bed to sleep.
Then, he personally took a fan to fan her.
Her long eyelashes were moist and there were tears at the corners of her eyes.
As Qi Haoran sighed slightly and carefully wiped her tears away, he began to worry.
He’d thought that Mu Yangling would be in a better mood if Little Madam Xia ca and she had soone to talk to.
Who knew that this would make her cry instead?
If he had known earlier, he would not have bothered to ask Zijin and his family to co earlier.
Qi Haoran scratched his head with a headache.
On the other side, Little Bear, who had woken up, was staring at the child sleeping beside him with wide eyes.
Fan Zhiyuan’s wet nurse couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile when she saw this.
She said in a soft voice, “Greetings, Little Heir.
This is…” “I know.” Little Bear lowered his voice and interrupted the wet nurse, saying with fascination, “This is my younger brother.” Since Fan Zijin and Qi Haoran were as close as brothers, it was not wrong to say that.
Fan Zhiyuan’s wet nurse nodded and said with a smile, “In that case, Little Heir, you have to get along well with that Little Heir.” As she spoke, she carefully helped Little Bear down from the small bed.
Little Bear lay on the side and looked at the little bundle on the bed with interest.
Then, he turned around and ran off to find his parents.
Qi Haoran was subconsciously fanning Mu Yangling and leaning against the head of the bed in a half-asleep state.
When his son ran in, he imdiately beca alert.
Little Bear shouted, “Daddy, Mother has given birth.
I have a younger brother now!” Qi Haoran was so shocked that he touched Mu Yangling’s stomach.
Seeing that Ah Ling’s stomach was bulging and she was sleeping peacefully on the bed, he imdiately heaved a sigh of relief and turned around to reprimand the kid.
“What nonsense are you talking about?
Your baby brother is still in the stomach.” Stunned, Little Bear climbed onto the bed in disbelief to look at his mother’s stomach.
Seeing that it was still so big, he asked with a head full of question marks, “Then why is there a baby boy on my bed?” “That’s your Uncle Fan’s boy, Little An.” Qi Haoran heaved a sigh of relief and glared at his son.
“In the future, confirm things before you make a fuss about it.
Don’t scare people like this again.” Little Bear counted on his fingers in surprise.
“Then I have two younger brothers.” Compared to his parents, his younger brother was obviously more attractive.
Hence, Little Bear turned around and ran to look for his younger brother.
Qi Haoran hurriedly called Spring over and said, “Watch Little Heir closely.
Don’t let him disturb the baby from resting.” Spring responded and hurriedly chased after him.
Fortunately, Little An’s wet nurse had been guarding the baby.
When she saw Little Bear run in, she shushed him and coaxed him to lower his voice.
Little Bear had always liked children younger than himself.
Upon hearing this, he carefully approached Little An.
Seeing that he was pouting and sleeping with his chubby hands on both sides of his head, Little Bear exclaid in surprise and reached out to hook his little finger.
Sighing, he said, “He’s so small.” Little An’s wet nurse was only in her early twenties.
When she heard this, she couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile.
She felt that this Little Heir of Prince Rong’s estate was very cute.
He himself was just a small child too, but he actually lanted about the baby being small.
When Little An woke up and didn’t see his mother at first glance, he opened his mouth and was about to cry.
Startled, Little Bear hurriedly patted his back clumsily to coax him.
“Don’t cry, don’t cry.
What a good boy.” Little An’s wet nurse quickly carried the baby and said, “Little Heir, sit down first.
I’ll take Little Master to look for Madam.” Little Bear hurriedly jumped off the bed and ran after her.
By the ti Qi Haoran thought of his son, he realized that he had not seen him for the entire day.
He could not help but ask in surprise, “Where’s the Little Heir?” Rain lowered her head and said, “Little Heir is playing with Young Master Zijin.” “They sure have been playing for quite a long ti,” Qi Haoran muttered and just forgot about the matter.
He felt that Little Bear couldn’t possibly stay there to play for an entire afternoon.
To his surprise though, Qi Haoran only managed to see his son again at dinnerti.
Moreover, his son had followed Little Madam Xia in.
His gaze was fixated upon Little An, who was lying on Little Madam Xia’s shoulder.
Qi Haoran glanced at him as he entered with his arms wrapped around Mu Yangling.
Having cried heartily in the afternoon, Mu Yangling was already feeling much better and looking more energetic than before.
After all, because of her illness, she looked listless previously.
One look and one could tell that she was sick.
However, after crying this afternoon, it was as if all her illness had been discharged through her tears.
Hence, she looked much more energetic, so Qi Haoran was quite happy.
However, Fan Zijin, who had seen Mu Yangling again after seven months, was shocked.
She was thin, but her stomach was bulging, and her face was pale and bloodless.
He did not expect Mu Yangling’s condition to be so bad.
Seeing this, his previous anger at Qi Haoran for abusing his official position for personal reasons had mostly dissipated.
He was silent for a mont before turning to ask Qi Haoran, “What did Imperial Physician Wang say?” Qi Haoran said helplessly, “He said that unless the weather cools down, there’s nothing we can do.
We can’t even put ice basins in the room.
One basin isn’t very helpful, and if we put two basins in, she will have diarrhea as ti passes.
Moreover, she won’t be able to eat anything.
The baby in her stomach is also constantly making a fuss, kicking around in her stomach almost every day…” At this point, Qi Haoran’s eyes couldn’t help but turn red.
During this period of ti, he had been trying his best not to show any abnormalities in front of Mu Yangling, but he was indeed very terrified.
Though pregnant, Mu Yangling’s appetite wasn’t even a third of what it was before.
How could there be sufficient nutrition for her and the unborn child?
Every ti he saw her suppressing her nausea and stuffing so food into her mouth before spitting it out, he felt like there was a rock in his chest.
He wanted to tell her that he didn’t want this child anymore, but he couldn’t bring himself to say it every ti the words ca to his mouth.
That was his child!
From being so small, the baby slowly grew up and was gradually able to move.
Every night before going to bed, the baby would kick him twice to say goodnight.
At this mont, the baby was probably lying inside her stomach with a trusting heart, waiting to open his eyes and see the world.
How could Qi Haoran be so heartless?
However, looking at his wife growing thinner day by day, he felt helpless.
That sense of powerlessness pressed down on him until he could not breathe.
He was afraid that one day, when he woke up, he would see Ah Ling lying on the bed and not wake up.
Seeing that Qi Haoran’s eyes were red and his voice was a little choked up, Fan Zijin reached out and patted his shoulder.
He said in a low voice, “It’s fine.
We can always get Cousin to send a few more imperial physicians over.
In the worst case scenario, we’ll send her back to Jiangnan first, where the temperature is lower.”
