"Mother said that after becoming pregnant, we should sleep separately to avoid harming the child. Didn’t we have an extra bed in the other room? You should sleep out there."
She knew her mother’s reason well.
Her mother wanted them to sleep in separate rooms out of fear that their youth, with their robust vitality and tender hearts, might lead to impulsive actions that could harm the precious, tiny bean sprout in her belly, grown painstakingly through concerted effort and diligent sowing.
Qin Yi was lifting the corner of the quilt when he heard this. Raising his brows, he replied, "This baby is barely the size of a bean now, and you’re already telling to sleep in a separate room? I’d have to endure lonely, sleepless nights for ten months? No, I firmly disagree with this!"
He had gotten used to falling asleep beside her soft, fragrant body these past few days. The absence of her familiar scent would be nigh unbearable, worse than death itself!
"We only need to sleep separately for the first few months. Bear with it, and it will pass."
Su Pan’er explained patiently.
"The first few months, but that’s still many days, isn’t it? No, absolutely not." The accommodating Qin Yi suddenly beca unusually obstinate.
Su Pan’er was now growing impatient too!
"What do you an by absolutely not? I’ve just beco pregnant, don’t tell you’re already losing interest! Given what happened last night, if there are one or two more such incidents, our child might be lost without us even realizing it. When that happens, you’ll regret it!"
Having lived two lives, she had been lonely for a long ti in her previous life.
In this life, she finally had a family, her own kin, and this little beansprout was nothing short of divine grace.
If it was lost due to carelessness, wouldn’t she regret it to her death?
With this thought, she glared at Qin Yi, her eyes seemingly shooting out hidden blades.
Thinking back to his mother-in-law’s repeated reminders about a pregnant woman’s shifting moods, he now realized how true that was. Although his Pan’er was swift and efficient, she was not a capricious woman. But the speed at which she changed her mood was truly overwhelming!
At this mont, he quickly turned around to embrace her gently, "How could I be reckless? This is my flesh and blood, too. How could I not cherish it? We don’t have to sleep separately. I just want to hold you and care for you tenderly, and nothing else until the child is secured. I promise."
Su Pan’er looked at him skeptically.
She rembered when she first t him, he was a Tuberculosis Ghost, frequently coughing with each step he took.
When did he shed his feeble deanor, becoming vigorous and valiant?
Getting her to trust him was no easy task!
Seeing her skepticism, Qin Yi quickly leaned in to whisper in her ear, "Besides, the weather’s changing, it’s getting colder. Considering your sleeping habits, who knows when you might roll off the bed. What if you kick off the blanket in the middle of the night due to your habit?"
This remark instantly made Su Pan’er’s cheeks blush the color of a persimmon!
" Right, right, you’re always the capable one! Is it because you covered with the quilt a few tis at night? Now you think you’re indispensable, is that it?"
Qin Yi chuckled twice and hurriedly responded with caution, "Hehe, to serve my wife is my honor!"
"So glib."
Su Pan’er humphed in response, stifling a yawn.
Being pregnant made her particularly sleepy.
Seeing this, Qin Yi leaned in with a teasing smile, "Isn’t that why my Pan’er loves ? Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s sleep."
Since Su Pan’er beca pregnant, she was incredibly sleepy and all her usual-to-do activities were thrown into chaos.
Initially, she had planned to go to the city with Qin Yi, but instead, it was only Qin Yi who saddled his horse to head to the county city early in the morning.
When he left, Su Pan’er was sleeping.
When he returned, Su Pan’er was still sleeping.
The only difference was her sleeping position. From sleeping on her side to sprawling half-crouched in the center of the bed, she dozed off, not even covering herself with the quilt.
Qin Yi couldn’t help but shake his head helplessly and hurriedly went to lift her, trying to tuck her into the quilt.
However, as soon as he moved, Su Pan’er woke up.
"Qin Yi?"
She was still sowhat drowsy, "Didn’t you say you were going to the county city? Why haven’t you left yet?"
Qin Yi chuckled, shaking his head helplessly, "I’ve already been to the city and returned. So, what do you think? Do you want to continue sleeping, or call the doctor in for a check-up?"
Qin Yi asked her this three tis, Su Pan’er was still so drowsy, it took her a while to realize what he was saying before she nodded her head.
The doctor he had sought this ti was none other than Doctor Cao Yan, who had accompanied them to Lin County. They were all well-acquainted, and it was easy to discuss things.
By the ti Qin Yi had called Doctor Cao Yan in, Su Pan’er had already fallen asleep again.
After checking Su Pan’er’s pulse, Qin Yi could hardly wait any longer and hastily asked, "Doctor Cao, about Pan’er, she..."
"Congratulations, Scholar Qin, Doctor Su is indeed pregnant."
Doctor Cao Yan’s face lit up with joy, "She should be two months into her pregnancy now. Fortunately, Doctor Su has always been healthy, and as long as she takes good care of herself in the first four months, there should be no major problems."
This news delighted Qin Yi trendously!
Suddenly rembering the concern that was bothering him, he asked, "Recently, Pan’er is very sleepy, is this normal?"
"It is normal. Symptoms of pregnancy can include sleepiness and cravings for sour or spicy food, which can be very different from regular eating habits. Many won also experience changes in mood. The key is to guide them and be as understanding as possible."
Doctor Cao Yan had beco quite familiar with the couple after their trip to Changze County.
So when discussing matters related to pregnancy, he naturally elaborated thoroughly and in detail.
Qin Yi was very pleased. One person spoke in detail and the other listened carefully. By the ti everything that needed attention was discussed, Qin Yi reached for the consultation fee to give to Doctor Cao Yan.
Doctor Cao Yan’s face imdiately beca unhappy.
"During our trip to Changze County, Doctor Su and I had a hearty discussion on various dical matters. These dical insights are simply priceless. My brief efforts now don’t warrant any paynt." He firmly refused the paynt and left before further discussion could take place.
After he left, Qin Yi looked at the sleeping Su Pan’er, quickly instructed Aunt Zhou to keep watch, and hurried off to the Qin Family’s new house to share the news with his father.
Old Qin, upon hearing the news, was overjoyed. The recent gloom that had overtaken him seed to lighten considerably.
Seeing the joyous atmosphere at ho, Qin Yi asked curiously.
At the ntion of it, a rare smile crossed Old Qin’s face, "Your sister Wan’er is getting engaged. She’s betrothed to the son of a wealthy family and they plan to marry once the spring arrives."
"Which wealthy family?"
Qin Yi blinked curiously, visibly taken aback.
Where was there a wealthy family with the surna Year in the vicinity?
