The head of the Mu family

Chapter 82 Qi Luan's Wedding

I later learned that there was more to the story than met the eye.

Miss Liu and Miss Cai knew that Qi Luan had never married and refused to marry.

Neither of them wants to marry; they're both waiting for the Qi Luan marriage proposal.

As they grew older, Miss Liu, who was a year older than Miss Cai, went to ask the Emperor to arrange a marriage.

This time, we are requesting the Emperor to grant us a marriage.

The emperor asked the old duke, who was naturally happy to oblige.

Upon hearing this, Miss Cai's father rushed to the Emperor to plead his case, saying that his daughter had also waited so many years for him.

The emperor was in a difficult position, so he asked the two families to come up with a solution to avoid conflict over their children's marriage.

And an imperial edict was issued:

No matter who comes next, they are not allowed to mention anything related to Qi Luan's marriage.

Even the emperor was afraid that if another young lady from some family appeared, the good thing would turn into a troublesome matter.

The final agreement reached by the two parties:

Everyone entered together, regardless of age.

The two young ladies have become godparents to each other's parents.

So when the bride returns home on the third day after her parents' wedding, they go together, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and they always talk about their parents!

Mu Huaisheng truly witnessed it:

This is absolutely mind-blowing!

But in this era, it's a beautiful story.

Over the years, I've gradually forgotten that I don't belong to this era anymore.

Gradually, subconsciously, we all abide by the rules of this era.

This incident made me realize that my views on marriage and relationships are still out of step with the times.

She was saddened when she heard that Qi Luan was getting married.

Although Qi Luan doesn't see herself as a woman~

Okay~ I have to admit, when it comes to relationships, they've never paid any attention to me!

But such a handsome man, with both charisma and culture, also possessed a strong sense of national righteousness.

Aside from my own view that my thinking is a bit outdated, it's already quite good for this era.

Of the entire Qi family, he was the only one who didn't have a concubine.

Although I haven't considered myself in that regard.

However, in other aspects, she is truly outstanding!

With such a handsome young man in the prime of his life constantly in front of you, who wouldn't be tempted?

In a typical time-travel novel, shouldn't this kind of man belong to the female lead?

Ugh! I feel terrible!

Can't we wait a few more years?

In this day and age, girls can't just get married after they turn fifteen, right?

During that period, Mu Huaisheng couldn't draw a single flower pattern.

Fortunately, I still have some of the previously revised Xiao Qianyan's works in stock.

Xiao Qianyan drew a few more pictures later, but she hadn't revised them yet and wasn't interested in them at all.

If the employer hadn't continued to pay wages, everyone would have thought something had happened to the employer.

Mu Huaisheng was secretly troubled:

what happened?

Before I could even make a move, the swan had already flown away!

I can't bear to talk about it!

So frustrating! I still have to give money as a gift!

The shop is very stable, with an annual income of seven or eight hundred thousand taels after deducting all expenses.

Mu Huaisheng felt that even if he was unlucky in love, he still had to work hard to make money.

At this time, Pingbo brought a message saying that the Qian family had asked Uncle Liu to bring a letter:

Qian Shao, who got engaged last year, is getting married next month!

Mu Huaisheng rejoiced for his childhood friend:

Oh my, you absolutely have to go!

I smuggled a set of mid-range luxury jewelry from the store.

He took Qingyue and Wu Shishuai on another trip, just in time.

Before going, they had skilled craftsmen from out of town dig a very deep basement in the main courtyard of the Mu residence.

After the excavation was completed, the entire structure was laid out and built, with ventilation holes left to connect directly to the east wing of the main courtyard.

The east wing was used as a latrine, and a hidden compartment was built inside that led directly to the basement.

The hidden compartment contains a triple-lock mechanism, with all three keys tied around Mu Huaisheng's neck.

Convert all the income from these years into silver and gold bars and store them in the basement.

These are hard currencies in any country.

Before and after Qi Luan's wedding, Mu Huaisheng remained listless in his own little world.

On the wedding day, he went with all the children to see the bride.

Mu Huaisheng's wounded heart immediately received some solace.

The two beauties are stunningly beautiful.

Miss Liu has a dignified and composed style, while Miss Cai is dashing and spirited.

The key is:

The two brides' headpieces were both from the shop's "88,000 Good Match" series, released last year.

No wonder she, like me, fell for Qi Luan.

You certainly have good taste!

Then think about the beauty of the two ladies.

Forget it, it'll be my turn in a few years anyway.

At the end of March, Mrs. Cai fell ill.

The handkerchief friend took Mu Huaisheng to visit, and Madam Liu was also there, speaking with concern to Madam Cai.

Looking at the two of them, so happy and harmonious, Mu Huaisheng was still...

He sighed to himself:

Okay~ I'm not so lucky.

I just can't understand this kind of sisterhood!

I asked about the situation, and they said they felt a little unwell when they woke up this morning.

After lunch, Qi Luan went to his post, and everything was fine.

I took a nap in the afternoon, then got up and ate some snacks before embroidering the screen.

The maid served tea, but he only took two sips before spitting it out.

Mu Huaisheng stepped forward to take his pulse and carefully felt it.

Mu Huaisheng felt a pang of sadness.

Qi Luan, that good lad, spent over twenty years building up his strength, and right after getting married, he got his wife pregnant!

Mu Huaisheng suppressed the bitterness in his heart and forced a smile:

Congratulations, Mrs. Cai!

You're in great health, it's just that there's a little one here now~

Everyone was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

As the manager of the Duke's mansion, the close friend was overjoyed and congratulated Madam Cai.

Madam Liu also quickly offered her congratulations, but there was a hint of melancholy in her voice.

Madam Cai was overjoyed, and Mu Huaisheng quickly said:

"It's still early, only a little over a month. Please take extra care to rest and recover."

I'll give you a preliminary diet plan for early pregnancy in a bit.

She also talked about various matters during pregnancy, from diet to controlling daily exercise.

The woman holding the handkerchief took Mrs. Cai's hand:

Don't worry~

In this respect, Huai Sheng was no less skilled than the imperial physicians.

If you do as she says, your child will remain healthy.

After she took care of me, I've had two children and I feel even healthier than when I got married!

Just then, Qi Luan strode in:

"Fu'er, what's wrong with your health?"

Upon seeing Madam Liu, his close friend, and Mu Huaisheng, he greeted his close friend.

Qi Luan pulled on Madam Liu's hand as she walked over, then immediately let go.

He quickly took two steps to sit on the edge of the bed and held Madam Cai's hand.

Congratulations, Third Master!

Madam Cai is pregnant!

Before he could ask, Mu Huaisheng stood to the side and spoke.

Qi Luan was so happy he almost lost his composure, and he held Madam Cai's hand tightly, saying:

"That's great! That's great!"

In Fu'er's courtyard, everyone was given a month's salary.

He then asked about the pregnancy, and Mu Huaisheng answered all his questions.

Seeing this, the handkerchief acquaintance, along with Madam Liu, led Mu Huaisheng away.

Once outside the courtyard, Madam Liu spoke:

"Sister-in-law, please wait!"

"Could you please invite my sister-in-law and Doctor Mu to sit in my yard for a while?"

As a close friend, she understood perfectly well. Upon arrival, she had Mu Huaisheng take Madam Liu's pulse as well.

Madam Liu's health was a bit weak and she just needed some recuperation, so Mu Huaisheng told her the truth.

"Then please, Doctor Mu, help with your treatment as well."

Mu Huaisheng glanced at his confidante, who nodded.

Mu Huaisheng then wrote her a medicinal diet and corresponding exercises.

"There's just one thing I need to make clear to Madam."

If you don't use me, that's fine. But if you do, you have to follow my method.

I will come to have my pulse checked every twenty days thereafter, and make adjustments based on my physical condition at that time.

If you do not cooperate according to my method.

From now on, I will no longer be making house calls to Madam's clinic!
