Chen Wen walked into the house and immediately smelled an unpleasant sour smell.
Chen Wen, who had vomited due to drinking, knew very well what this unpleasant smell was.
When Zhao heard the noise and saw Chen Wen coming back, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Because of the discomfort of early pregnancy, I have forgotten it for the time being.
She looked at Chen Wen longingly, hoping that Chen Wen would come over and feed her some water, or maybe give her a few gentle words of comfort like before.
Chen Wen would definitely be very happy and excited if she took advantage of the tenderness between the two to reveal the pregnancy.
During this period, Chen Wen was busy outside. She would leave early and come back late all day long. Sometimes she would just sleep in the study when she came back late. She never had the chance to tell Chen Wen that she was pregnant.
Ms. Zhao stared at Chen Wen and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
Chen Wen didn't even look at Mrs. Zhao, but went directly to the cabinet and started rummaging around.
Zhao held back her disappointment and asked, "What are you looking for?"
Chen Wen kept moving his hands and said perfunctorily: "I'm not looking for anything."
Ms. Zhao was even more disappointed. Chen Wenming was clearly looking for something with a purpose, why should he hide it from her?
Mrs. Zhao thought for a while, then got out of bed, weakly walked a few steps towards Chen Wen, and said sincerely: "How about I help you find it? It will be faster for two people to find it."
Chen Wen rummaged through the bottom of the cabinet to find a small package and quickly stuffed it into his arms.
Mrs. Zhao saw it with keen eyes.
She knew the package, she had put it there herself.
The package contained gold that Chen Wen had received from Lord Marquis. Chen Wen said he would keep it for Chen Sirui, and when Chen Sirui grew up, he would give her a gold bracelet or hairpin to wear.
Now that Chen Wen has taken this thing away, could it be said that he has found a good craftsman outside?
Mrs. Zhao felt happy, as expected, Chen Wen still had mother and daughter in mind.
The disappointment caused by Chen Wen's going out early and coming back late during this period was all gone at this moment.
Mrs. Zhao walked over to Chen Wen, stretched out her hand to straighten Chen Wen's clothes, and said softly: "You are busy outside, but you should also take care of yourself. You must eat on time."
In the past, Chen Wen enjoyed Zhao's concern for him the most, but now, he interrupted a little impatiently: "I know, I have heard these words so many times that my ears are getting calluses."
Zhao's smile faltered, and she retracted her hand with a wry smile, "I know, it's rare for you to come back so early, why not go and see Sister Rui. Sister Rui has been feeling a little uncomfortable these days, and she's been making noises all day long.
Where is daddy?"
"Are you sick again?" Chen Wenba raised his voice, "How do you take care of Sister Rui? She is already weak, so you should be more attentive."
"I'm..." Ms. Zhao wanted to say that she was pregnant. It wasn't that she didn't take care of Chen Sirui at all, but that she really didn't have the energy.
But Chen Wen didn't have the patience to listen anymore, "I have something to do outside, so I'm going out first."
After saying that, Chen Wen went out without hesitation, without giving Zhao a chance to speak again.
Zhao's mind was shaken, her legs were weak, and she could no longer stand.
Still thinking about the child in her belly, she forced herself to walk to the chair and sit down.
When Su Niang came in, she was startled when she saw Mrs. Zhao's face was pale, and asked hurriedly: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Mrs. Zhao's eyes became moist for some reason, and she whispered: "Su Niang, do you think I have changed?"
It turned out to be because of this.
Su Niang hurriedly comforted her: "The young master has changed and has become busier. But this is also a good thing. Men are always in the back house, and they will be laughed at if they go out. If the young master goes out to make a career, he will be laughed at."
, you and Miss Rui are also very happy."
Although this was true, Zhao felt her heart ache when she thought of Chen Wen's attitude towards her.
Su Niang lowered her voice and reminded, "You can't be sad just because of this thing in your belly."
Apart from Ma, only Su Niang, the closest and most trusted person around her, knew about Mrs. Zhao's pregnancy.
As expected, Mrs. Zhao wiped away her tears and did not dare to be upset anymore.
This time, she must give birth to a healthy child!
It would be even better if it was a boy. A hundred years later, she and Chen Wen would be able to rely on Chen Sirui.
Mrs. Zhao comforted herself that Chen Wen still cared about the mother and daughter, otherwise he would not have come back to take the gold. Chen Wen must have wanted to surprise Chen Sirui.
Chen Wen's abnormality must be because he is too busy and tired outside.
As a wife, she didn't understand him and instead complained about him, which was really inappropriate.
*
Chen Wen held the gold in his arms and rode all the way to the house outside.
This house was left to him by his aunt.
His aunt was born into a commoner family, and her family had little money.
His aunt was in the Marquis' Mansion. She managed to save a little money with the rewards from her masters, and bought this house. She gave it to Chen Wen without telling anyone, so that Chen Wen could keep it with her.
Because it was his aunt's hard work for most of her life, Chen Wen didn't even tell the Zhao family.
Because he was afraid of being known by other people in the Hou Mansion, he rarely came here.
It's a nice house, but it looks like it's almost abandoned.
Now, this house has gained popularity again.
As evening approached, smoke drifted from the kitchen, and Chen Wen seemed to have smelled the aroma of the food.
He couldn't wait to walk in. When he walked inside, he felt excited when he saw the woman sitting in the room.
He is obviously a father, but at this moment, he is no different from a young boy.
He enjoyed this feeling very much.
The woman in the room also noticed Chen Wen. She smiled and walked out quickly, with an apron tied around her waist.
"You're finally here. I'll cook a pot of chicken soup for you to replenish your health."
The woman in front of him had flushed cheeks because of her excitement. Zhao Wen gently took the woman's hand and said, "Yushu, just let the cook do these things. If there are not enough people to call, I will buy some more."
Cheng Yushu said sensibly: "That's enough, that's enough. I'm not a wealthy lady who can endure hardship."
Chen Wen pulled Cheng Yushu into the house, took out the package from his arms, opened a corner, and the golden light revealed surprised Cheng Yushu for a moment.
Chen Wen explained: "I see that you don't have much jewelry. Take this and find a craftsman to make some gold jewelry."
Cheng Yushu did not dare to accept it, and declined: "I am already grateful that you can give me a shelter from the wind and rain. I can't accept it anymore, otherwise others will definitely say behind my back that I am doing it for your money."
I just followed you."
Saying that, Cheng Yushu's eyes were red and she threw herself into Chen Wen's arms.
Chen Wen hurriedly comforted, "If anyone dares to say that to you, I will kick her out and I will never tolerate it! You deserve this. If you don't accept it, I will feel bad."
