Chapter 2172: No Separation

Chapter 2172: No Separation

Only now did Xiang Weinan feel relieved, and he couldn't help but continue grinning foolishly.

Zhao Xi clicked his tongue and said, "Alright, come over here. I'll tell you some precautions for pregnant women. Take it easy with her later."

Xiang Weinan first helped Xiao Ruojun sit down obediently and then followed Zhao Xi to the side to listen to him explain the medication and instructions.

"Congratulations," Shu Yu said, pulling up a chair and sitting in front of Xiao Shi. She asked in a low voice, "Did you already know? Otherwise, when I asked you if you were feeling motion sick in the carriage earlier, you wouldn't have shaken your head."

"To be honest, I wasn't entirely sure. I've been a bit sleepy lately, and my period was delayed. But ever since I was poisoned, my period has been unstable, only becoming regular a few months ago. This time, it was delayed by seven or eight days, and I thought it was the same as before. But Gu Mama said that I've been sleeping a lot lately and often feel drowsy during the day, so she suspected I might be pregnant. I was planning to see a doctor in a few days when I returned to the capital."

Because she had her suspicions, she didn't dare to take medication indiscriminately. When Shu Yu asked her if she wanted motion sickness medicine, she refused.

Shu Yu turned her head and glanced at Xiang Weinan, who was still talking to Zhao Xi. She then teased, "So now you don't want a separation?"

No wonder she brought up the matter of County Princess Jiahui. Why hadn't Xiao Ruojun thought of using that as an excuse for a separation?

Xiao Shi's face blushed slightly, and she cleared her throat. "This child has come through hardship. I want to give him a complete family. No separation."

While Xiao Shi felt that the child had come through hardship, Shu Yu thought that the child had come at the right time.

Five years had passed since Xiang Weinan reluctantly got married. He naturally didn't want to be intimate with Xiao Shi in the beginning. Later, when he became the magistrate of Jiangyuan County, he served for nearly three years. During this time, Xiao Shi had gone to find him, but the situation was far from pleasant, and how could they have a child in such circumstances?

After that, Xiao Shi returned to the capital and was confined by the Xiao family. Subsequently, she was poisoned.

The couple had been separated again, with one of them recuperating while the other pursued his own goals.

Now that Xiao Shi's health had improved, and the two of them were in the capital together, their relationship had eased. With the right timing and circumstances, even though they were still separated, the child had come.

Shu Yu was genuinely happy for her. She thought that perhaps Xiang Weinan didn't like Xiao Shi in the past, but now, she really couldn't be sure.

Otherwise, why would they be separated for so long and still end up having a child unexpectedly?

"Now that you have a child and don't plan to separate, you should live your lives well from now on. You should go home early today and rest. I'll come to see you in a few days."

"Okay."

Xiao Shi's whole demeanor had softened. After Xiang Weinan and Zhao Xi had finished talking, he helped her up and they left.

Gu Mama and the others were waiting outside the courtyard. When they saw the Master supporting the Miss and leaving together, they were momentarily stunned but quickly realized what had happened. They looked at Xiao Shi with excited expressions.

Xiao Shi nodded, confirming their guess.

Shu Yu watched them leave, waving to them as they boarded the carriage, then turned and walked back into the courtyard.
