Chapter 504 Finale (3)
Afterwards, Ji Wuyuan dropped the axe in his hand and walked to the small stove beside him as if nothing had happened to pour the decocted pregnancy-stabilizing medicine.
Amidst everyone's nervous expressions, Old Doctor Sun stroked his white beard and smiled, "Dual pulses flow in competition, like beads rolling on a plate..."
"Your Majesty, this pregnancy is twins..."
However, before he finished speaking and the shocked pupils of several people had just dilated, a sharp and crisp "Snap" sound suddenly rang out in the courtyard, followed by a "Crash" sound of porcelain pieces bursting.
Several people looked over in the direction of the voice and saw Ji Wuyuan standing there in a daze, with the pregnancy-preserving medicine that had just fallen to the ground and broken into pieces at his feet.
When several people looked at him at the same time, Ji Wuyuan reacted instantly. He immediately put on a panicked expression and looked at them.
The first one to speak was the maid Cui'er: "Jiwu! What are you doing!"
"Give us a good scare!"
Ji Wuyuan said in a panic: "I'm...I'm sorry..."
Jiang Wantang looked at him with a complicated expression and said calmly, "It's okay, just go and fry another bowl."
Ji Wuyuan took the order and picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, but the moment he turned around, the expression on his face changed suddenly. He was shocked but not panicked. After the shock, he looked solemn and worried.
When he learned that Jiang Wantang was pregnant, he was surprised and happy.
But when he learned that she was pregnant with twins, Ji Wuyuan couldn't be happy at all.
It is said that giving birth for a woman is like walking through the gates of hell. This is true for one baby, let alone twins.
He didn't even dare to imagine how much suffering she must have endured during the ten months of pregnancy.
Thinking about this, Ji Wuyuan's fingers unconsciously clenched tightly, and he didn't even notice the broken porcelain piercing his flesh and bleeding.
At the stone table, Doctor Sun, who had been interrupted, continued, "Your maternity is still young, and your pulse is not yet clear, so it is difficult to tell."
Jiang Wantang was only momentarily shocked when she heard the word 'twins'. Afterwards, she smiled and said, "Mr. Sun, is my pregnancy going well?"
Doctor Sun withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my dear. You are in good health and the baby in your belly is safe."
After receiving this reply, Jiang Wantang finally felt relieved.
However, Madam Su, who was sitting next to Jiang Wantang, had a troubled look on her face after the surprise. She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Mr. Sun, I heard that this woman is pregnant with twins, and there is a high risk of a difficult labor. Are you sure?"
She wasn't pouring cold water on the situation, but she had been practicing medicine for many years and had seen many women die from difficult childbirths, especially those who were pregnant with twins.
"Madam Su's concerns are not without reason." Doctor Sun stroked his beard and said seriously, "However, I will do my best to ensure your safety."
He had come here under the strict order of the Living King of Hell to protect the Empress's pregnancy.
He was an old man, but he still had to be taken by them to travel day and night. The running along the way almost broke him apart.
Who would believe that the young and beautiful woman in front of him was actually the queen of the current dynasty.
And what she was carrying in her belly... was a dragon heir!
If anything happens to either of them, not only will he lose his life, but even their Medicine King Valley will probably be blown to pieces by that living devil.
How dare he let anything happen to them?
After hearing Dr. Sun's assurance, Madam Su's worried look did not ease.
Jiang Wantang, who was standing by, also knew the truth.
Giving birth to twins is not easy, and a difficult birth is a life-threatening situation.
Her grandmother died of complications during childbirth when giving birth to her mother and aunt.
However, Jiang Wantang was not afraid of these.
Because she not only wants the baby in her belly to be born safely, but also wants to accompany them as they grow up.
She believed she could do it.
So, she patted the back of Su Niangzi's hand, chuckled and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Madam Su looked at her bright and gentle smile and said nothing more.
Afterwards, Doctor Su told Jiang Wantang many things that needed to be paid attention to in daily life and dietary taboos.
Ji Wuyuan, who was decocting medicine not far away, listened carefully and wrote down everything.
At the end of his speech, Doctor Sun looked around the courtyard, frowned, and said, "Forgive me for being blunt, but this place is in a busy city. Your Excellency is pregnant now. Living here is probably not conducive to rest and nurturing the fetus..."
Madam Su also agreed, "Yes, the sounds of hawking are everywhere here. Madam, why don't you move to a quiet place and rest up?"
"Leave the trivial matters in the building to the respective wives in charge to handle."
Jiang Wantang also understood this. This small courtyard, connected to their small teahouse, was originally bought to provide a place for these homeless women to stay.
Now the teahouse business is on the right track and everyone is doing well, so she can let them take charge with peace of mind.
Right now, the most important thing for her is to take good care of the fetus and give birth to the child safely.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wantang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send someone out to find a new place to live later."
However, what she didn't know was that what Doctor Sun said was specifically instructed by Ji Wuyuan to do at Feiyu's request.
When he first arrived, he felt that this place was crowded with people of all kinds and was not suitable for living.
In addition, with so many women living in this small courtyard, it was not only not conducive to Jiang Wantang's rest, but also inconvenient for him to enter and leave her room at night.
After all, with so many people around, he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be discovered every time.
Therefore, on the day he arrived, he asked Feiyu to find a suitable new residence.
After Doctor Sun left, Jiang Wantang wanted to ask someone to find a new place to live.
After asking around, I found out that the servants in the building 'happened' to be busy with something.
Therefore, Jiang Wantang could only look at Ji Wuyuan who was 'honestly' decocting medicine in the courtyard.
As expected, this task fell on Ji Wuyuan.
In order to avoid arousing Jiang Wantang's suspicion, Ji Wuyuan took her to the new residence he had arranged for her the next day.
The new residence is a three-story courtyard, neither too big nor too small. It has a good environment and is quiet in a busy area. It is also close to the clinic and pharmacy opened by Jiang Wantang.
Whether it was the location, layout, or even the price, it all suited Jiang Wantang's taste.
There is not a single thing I am dissatisfied with, but it is just too perfect.
Jiang Wantang couldn't help but look at Ji Wu who was talking to Cui Er at the side, his eyes darkening a little.
Cui'er obviously liked this yard very much. She talked happily in front of Jiwu and praised him for choosing a good place to live.
The man always had a smile on his face, looking honest and simple.
Although the man in front of her didn't resemble that noble man at all, Jiang Wantang felt that they looked alike.
The more Jiang Wantang looked, the more complicated her eyes became.
Ji Wuyuan, is it really you?
