Mr. Hu went to write prescriptions and prepare the dicine. Only then did Mr. Jiu leisurely rise and speak calmly:
"So this is the matter. What, you want a baby now?"
Ninth Uncle is actually discussing this with her? It’s so embarrassing, okay!
Qin Miaomiao looked slightly annoyed:
"Actually, I’m not in such a hurry, but since we talked about it before, I wanted to give you, Ninth Uncle, a heir that you could properly nurture. Wouldn’t my burden be lighter, so I can enjoy life a bit more? That’s why I didn’t take contraception, but it seems... it’s not easy to get pregnant."
Mr. Jiu saw her looking sowhat discouraged. He patted her shoulder lightly and comforted her with a calm voice:
"Who said I must have a heir? Don’t stress yourself out. If you don’t want to be the Su Family’s heir, just hold the title, let Xiao Chen handle things for you, and later adopt a child to take over. That would be fine."
Even Ninth Uncle said this?
Although she knew this was probably ant to comfort her, Qin Miaomiao truly felt better inside. She pulled his arm and muttered:
"Actually, I was hoping to have three children—two sons and one daughter. I even thought about their nas. The eldest son would be raised by you, Ninth Uncle, and take the surna Su. The second and third kids would take the surna Lu. The little princess would definitely be adorable."
Mr. Jiu raised his hand to stroke her head, a hint of gentleness appearing in his eyes. Even his voice softened:
"That’s okay. Focus on taking good care of your health first. If it still doesn’t work, then we’ll find other ways. Children aren’t sothing to worry about. Your health is the most important; everything else is secondary."
"Ninth Uncle is so wonderful."
Seeing the radiant smile on her face, Mr. Jiu’s expression softened further. After she went out to play with Xiao Bai and Little Xiaobai, he called Mr. Hu over and asked in a low voice:
"How is Miss’s health? Can she get pregnant?"
Mr. Hu hesitated, swallowed his words, and then saw Mr. Jiu squint his eyes. He shivered all over. For soone who had lived so long, being frightened too often might make him the first to et Buddha!
"Actually, Miss’s constitution was never great to begin with. Her womb is quite cold; even with proper care, it’s probably difficult for her to conceive. However, there are so thods..."
Before he could finish speaking, Mr. Jiu waved his hand, compelling him to shut his mouth.
"Just prescribe sothing to nourish her body."
"Yes, Mr. Jiu."
After Mr. Hu withdrew, Ou Beichen, standing nearby, wore a somber expression.
Mr. Jiu said calmly:
"From now on, no one is allowed to bring up the topic of children in Little Jin’er’s presence."
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice:
"What about Brother-in-law?"
Mr. Jiu sneered:
"If he starts acting differently because of this issue, then he’s free to step aside. There’s no need to hide it from him."
"Understood."
"Additionally, this matter may be a blow to Little Jin’er. No one is allowed to ntion it. Inform Lu Qing over there and see how he handles it."
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Got it. Besides, with advanced technological thods, even if Sister can’t give birth naturally, artificial insemination and surrogacy are alternatives. These aren’t problems."
Mr. Jiu chuckled coldly: "Perfect. This is an opportunity to test Lu Qing and see how he reacts."
"Hmm. Sister seems to really like children."
"Which is precisely why we can’t let her be sad. Invest money to set up a research team to study projects related to fertility."
Xiao Chen agreed wholeheartedly, nodding. Although forming a research team would be costly, he himself held so interest in biology—it was worth exploring.
Little did Mr. Jiu know that his montary whim, along with his investnt in this field, would lead to the ergence of a top human genetics expert and the creation of a cutting-edge genetics team, making remarkable contributions to humanity’s reproductive challenges!
Of course, all of that is a story for another ti.
