Chapter 222 Fetal Movement
Chapter 222 Fetal Movement
The next day, Bai Mansion.
As soon as Bai Yanli came back in the morning, Tang Wanru came out to greet him: "You're back. How is Concubine Chen?" When they parted that day, Concubine Chen still looked a little frightened.
Bai Yanli's gaze fell on Tang Wanru. She was wearing a thin pink and yellow skirt today, which made her look even more elegant in early summer.
The round belly also looked a lot lighter.
She was in a good mood, with a smile on her face. The corners of her lips curled up, making him want to hold them in his mouth.
"Princess Chen is fine." Bai Yanli walked in, closed the door, pulled it with one hand, and sat down with Tang Wanru in his arms.
Tang Wanru sat obediently in his arms.
"Have you found any clues about the prince's secret room?" Tang Wanru asked curiously.
"Of course." Bai Yanli nodded.
There are two major forces behind Crown Prince Zhou Huangquan. One is the Shen Family Army, the family of Crown Princess Shen Bishui. The other is the Dark Cabinet behind the Crown Prince, which are the people who came out to assassinate the Emperor in Longquan Temple last time.
Bai Yanli has handed over several teams of Shen's army entering Beijing to Lin Junchen of the General's Mansion for disposal, and the Dark Pavilion has not been exposed recently.
Therefore, Bai Yanli and Zhou Zhuoqi simply took advantage of this time when Concubine Chen left the palace to lure out the snakes from their holes and find out the connection between Crown Prince Zhou Huangquan and the secret cabinet, so that they could catch them all in one fell swoop later.
"This is all thanks to your wisdom, my lady. You calmly rowed the boat to the lakeside and surrounded the killers, trapping them."
This is exactly what Bai Yanli told her last time. Tang Wanru did a great job.
Tang Wanru hadn't told him yet. Her purpose of going to the shore was not only to deal with the killer, but also because she saw Tang Yue'er on the shore and wanted to lure the killer to the shore to sprinkle the Yunxiang pollen.
But since he praised her, she accepted it, so Tang Wanru nodded and smiled: "It's good that we found the clue."
She was about to stand up after she finished speaking. But Bai Yanli pulled her back down with force. In early summer, she wore even fewer clothes. Through her thin coat, his hand seemed to be able to touch her soft skin. He pressed his hand on her waist and was reluctant to let it go.
"What about you?" Bai Yanli asked, "How was yesterday?"
He and Zhou Zhuoqi were investigating the prince's secret cabinet yesterday, and he did not come back in the evening, so he had no time to ask her.
"What can I do?" Tang Wanru said with a smile, "Suiqi's kung fu is so powerful, he protected me so well, I'm fine."
"What about him?" Bai Yanli asked, "Is he okay too?"
Tang Wanru was stunned, and didn't realize who he was talking about. When she saw Bai Yanli's eyes on her belly, she suddenly realized.
It turns out he was talking about the fetus.
Yesterday, with Suiqi around, Bai Yanli was not worried about Tang Wanru. The only thing he was worried about was whether she would hurt the child if she ran too much.
She and the child are now the apple of his eye.
Seeing him like this, Tang Wanru smiled even more happily. She took his hand and gently covered her belly.
Bai Yanli was just curious about what she was doing when he suddenly felt a bulge on her belly, which happened to hit the palm of his hand. It instantly touched his nerves, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.
This is fetal movement.
Even Bai Yanli was very surprised by this. He felt an unprecedented warm current flowing from his palms to every part of his body.
"Wanru." He called her softly.
Tang Wanru smiled and nodded: "Didn't Doctor Xu say a few days ago that the baby's fetal movements were a little less, and I should walk around more, so that the fetus will become more active, and it will be easier for me to give birth then? I walked a lot that day, and the fetus really moved more."
Her words almost made Bai Yanli laugh.
Walking during pregnancy can indeed make the fetus move more, which is beneficial.
But Bai Yanli felt that the reason he could feel the movement so clearly this time was because the fetus had grown again.
More strength.
This little girl is really good at comforting people in order to relieve him from worrying.
Thinking of this, Bai Yanli liked Tang Wanru even more. He hugged her and buried his head in her neck.
Feel the child's movements with your hands.
My body felt her warmth.
Before he traveled through time, he had never dared to imagine such a happy life.
He suddenly felt very safe.
So he gently closed his eyes.
Feeling that he was holding her still, Tang Wanru asked softly, "Yan Li, what's wrong with you?"
"Shh." Bai Yanli uttered a word softly, then curled his head into her warm neck and closed his eyes.
He is very tired.
Tang Wanru suddenly remembered that he did not come back last night. He must have been busy looking for clues about the secret chamber all night.
So Tang Wanru didn't move, just let him hold her and watched him fall asleep.
The wind from outside blew in through the half-open window, blowing the hair of the two people gently. The scene looked like a leisurely painting.
*
Bai Mansion, outside the door.
A carriage stopped not far from the gate of Bai's house, and a pretty girl jumped out of the carriage. She put her bag on her back and walked towards the gate of Bai's house.
Suddenly, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a woman's face.
The woman was none other than Zhao Mengyi.
"Wait." Zhao Mengyi called her from behind.
The woman turned her head and looked at her with a pair of big watery eyes.
"Yu Jiao, I bought you. You have to do things according to my instructions. If you make any mistakes, I will sell you back. Do you understand?" Zhao Meng said in a cold breath.
"I know." Yu Jiao nodded smartly, "Don't worry, young lady. I will do as you say."
"Good go."
The woman nodded and walked into the Bai Mansion carrying her bag.

in the door.
Ye Qinghe was training the newly recruited maids. Because of the assassination of Bai Yanli last time and the recent incident of the Crown Princess targeting the Bai Mansion, in order to avoid any accidents, the newly recruited maids were all introduced by acquaintances, and they all knew each other well.
When the woman came in, she consciously stood at the end of the maids.
Ye Qinghe suddenly saw another person standing behind her and asked, "Who are you?"
The little girl hurried forward and said, "Madam, my name is Yu Jiao, and I came from the manor."
She glanced up at Ye Qinghe, who looked suspicious, and added, "Madam asked me to come. My father and mother were killed by rocks rolling down from the mountain while they were working on the farm. Madam took pity on me and allowed me to work in the mansion."
"Yu Jiao?" Ye Qinghe asked.
"Exactly."
Ye Qinghe recalled that Shang had indeed told her that there was a poor person on the farm. Her parents had done their best for the Bai family, and now only this young girl was left alive. The farm was full of rough people, and if such a young girl stayed there, she would inevitably be coveted by others, so she was allowed to live in the mansion, after all, the interpersonal relationships in the mansion were simpler.
"Put your things down and come over here." Ye Qinghe said.
"Yes." Yu Jiao put the bag aside and looked around. She felt that the courtyard of the Bai Mansion was really spacious and she had never seen such a beautiful courtyard on the farm.
Ye Qinghe explained the rules to the new maids, and took a few maids around the yard. Then she assigned them to the head maids of each yard, and turned around to leave.
Yu Jiao saw that she was assigned to sweep the outer courtyard.
He immediately came forward and grabbed Ye Qinghe's sleeve.
Ye Qinghe looked back at her in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"
Yu Jiao's eyes sparkled as she said seriously, "My mother was a midwife on the farm. I know how to take care of pregnant women."
"I heard that the second young master's wife is pregnant. Don't look at my young age. I am very proficient in pregnancy and childbirth. Let me go to the inner courtyard to take care of the second young master's wife. I will definitely take good care of her."
Ye Qinghe didn't think anything at first.
Now when he heard this, his brows sank coldly.
