"Nonsense!" Xie YanYu reprimanded, "You have less than two months before you give birth, yet you haven’t even found a midwife, or a doctor..."
As he spoke, his brow furrowed tightly, feeling that his younger sister was still a child. Even though she was about to beco a mother, she was still just a child.
There was no planning at all. In a Capital City family, from the mont one gets pregnant, they should carefully nurture the fetus, pay attention to everything, and prepare everything thoroughly.
But here she was, walking the streets with a big belly, pushing and shouting at the governnt office with the soldiers.
If any mishap happened!
Xie Wanqing felt quite aggrieved by the scolding.
How could she not know to find a midwife? It’s just that the Li Family’s Mother-in-law said that her own mother was a midwife, and from a young age, she was influenced by her mother. Later, she personally gave birth to one herself.
In terms of midwifery skills, there were few on these streets who could match her.
Moreover, Chen Xixi’s due date was one or two months apart from hers, so there would be no overlap.
Trusting others was not as good as trusting her own relatives.
Xie Wanqing felt her status should remain secret, so she didn’t bother to find another midwife.
Unwilling to be treated as a child by her brother, she explained seriously, and then said, "The Li Family treats very well, and it’s been thanks to their care these days. Now that Mr. Li is encountering issues, Brother, you must keep an eye on things."
Xie YanYu said, "Don’t worry, since the case is in the hands of your Cousin Ji, no wrongful or false judgnt will occur."
The implication was a terrifyingly high evaluation of Ji Chengfeng.
Xie Wanqing, snapping back from the excitent of reuniting with her brother, belatedly realized that her cousin was now the Prefect of Bianzhou.
In this area, he was like a local emperor.
The forr Champion Scholar, who had been in the court for less than two years, had been promoted at this speed, really...
The Great Khan was in such dire need of talent.
Unexpectedly, Xie YanYu said, "It’s just a temporary role. With your Cousin Ji’s talent, he won’t be confined here. Soday, he is bound to enter the court as a high-ranking official."
Xie Wanqing was not too shocked.
After all, in the previous life, when Ji Chengfeng died, the Emperor cried as if he had lost a son.
If he were not truly a prodigy, how could the ruler of a nation feel such sorrow?
Thinking of sothing, she rested her chin and chuckled foolishly, "No matter how long he stays, as long as Cousin Ji is around, I have soone in the governnt office, and I’m no longer a helpless widow."
Among the common folks’ sayings, she had picked up a few phrases over the months.
Having soone in the governnt office makes things easier, not afraid of being bullied, and so on.
She said it casually as a joke, but it made Xie YanYu, whose heart was already worried for his sister, change his expression continuously.
What did it an to be a helpless widow?
He said, "Is there soone bullying you?"
The coldness in his voice made Xie Wanqing freeze, and she quickly shook her head, "No, no."
"The folk customs in Bianzhou are good, and there are no bullies coming to my door. Although I am alone, the neighbors are all very kind and have never bullied ."
Xie YanYu carefully observed her expression, then slowly breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Cousin Ji is temporarily assigned here and could leave at any mont. The court will eventually send a real official to take over."
Several nas of people whom the Holy Emperor might entrust with responsibility flashed through his mind. In the end, his brows furrowed tighter, and he decisively shook his head, "No matter who cos, I won’t be at ease. It’s still most appropriate for to personally take care of you."
He was already prepared to submit a morial to the Holy Emperor, actively requesting the duty.
Yet Xie Wanqing refused, "Brother, you have your ambitions. How could you be confined to Bianzhou because of ?"
