Chapter 580 Pregnancy

By the way, today at noon? Did you feel the pulse today at noon?" Rong Jin asked a series of questions.

"Yeah, I touched it this afternoon." Hua Lei nodded.

"Really? That's great. Do you want to find a doctor outside tomorrow to come and check you out? I hope the young doctor from Xu Mansion won't make a mistake?" Rong Jin was both happy and worried.

"Before going on duty this afternoon, I also consulted the old doctor in Huichuntang on East Street. He confirmed that I was indeed pregnant and that I was in good health. He told me to focus on rest and proper nutrition, and he didn't even prescribe any medicine." Hua Lei said truthfully.

"Really? That's great. Have you sent someone to tell my father and mother?" Rong Jin asked with joy.

"Not yet. I want you to be the first to know about this. Husband, do you like this child?" Hua Lei asked again.

"Of course I like it? Sister Hua, why do you ask that? What? You don't like it?" Rong Jin's voice lowered.

"No, I like it very much. You know that I have been looking forward to having a child since I got married." Hua Lei said softly.

"Really?" After looking at Hua Lei's expression, Rong Jin asked again.

"Husband, you know that when have I ever rejected you? You..." Thinking of Rong Jin's madness every time, Hua Lei glanced at Rong Jin and stopped talking.

"As long as you like it, I like it too. Sister Hua, that's great." Rong Jin kissed Hua Lei on the forehead and said, "Then I'll let Qing Zao talk to my father and mother tomorrow, they will definitely be happy.

By the way, I have to write a letter back to my grandparents. Just think, if they knew you were pregnant, they would be so happy, as well as my father-in-law and mother-in-law." Rong Jin wanted to write a letter back to Shangjing City again.

"Husband, I feel that I am in good health now, and I would like to continue on duty. Let's wait and see the actual situation after a while, okay?" Hua Lei's voice was soft and full of coquettishness.

"You want to continue working? Isn't that too tiring? Or..."

"Husband, the office is not busy these days. I want to... try to hold on a little longer. I... I don't want to resign." Hua Lei took the initiative to hug Rong Jin's neck and rubbed it.

Looking at Hua Lei acting like a spoiled child in his arms, Rong Jin's heart had already softened into a puddle of water. He lowered his head, kissed Hua Lei on the lips again, and said with a low smile, "Sister Hua, you are always like this. Whenever you need something from me, you love to use the trick of acting like a spoiled child to get the better of me.

Not only do you want me to agree to let you continue to go out and work, you also want me to speak well of you in front of my father and mother, so that they will agree with you, right?" Rong Jin saw through Hua Lei's intentions.

"Well, my husband is so smart. I can't hide anything from him." Hua Lei also pecked Rong Jin's lips.

"But, Sister Hua, if you want to go on duty, you have to get up early every day, which is too hard. Why don't you stay at home and sleep in as long as you want? It's so comfortable. The weather will be colder next month. Wouldn't it be nice to sleep in on the warm bed? You can read a book, write, or do anything else when you have free time. Why do you have to be so tired?

In the past, you worked so hard because your parents-in-law didn't come back and Xiaoyuan was still young, but now these are no longer a problem. Aren't you just forcing yourself to endure the hardship?" Rong Jin touched Hualei's face lovingly. "Besides, you've been complaining about being tired recently, so you just need to take a rest."

"I feel OK. I can still hold on. Besides, even if you are pregnant, you still need to exercise properly. Those who lie on the kang every day are patients. Pregnant women don't need to lie on the kang every day.

Husband, if I am really too tired, I will take a leave to rest. I will put the child first, but I don’t want to quit my job just because of my pregnancy. "Hua Lei insisted.

"Ah..." Rong Jin sighed deeply and nodded, "I understand. I will tell my parents. But you also have to promise me not to force yourself and to balance work and rest."

"Well, I'll listen to my husband. Thank you, husband." Hua Lei smiled with satisfaction.

"You, why do you like to work so much? Isn't it good to be a young lady of the Marquis's Mansion comfortably at home?" Rong Jin shook her head and helped Hua Lei pull the quilt.

"No, I think it's great to be the young lady of the Marquis's Mansion, and it's also great to be your wife. I think the greatest luck in my life is to meet you." Hua Lei started throwing sugar-coated bullets again.

"Sister Hua, why is your mouth always so sweet?" Rong Jin couldn't help but hold someone's lips and rub them gently. Although he knew that Hua Lei was fooling him, Rong Jin couldn't help but feel happy.

"I'm serious, husband." Hua Lei smiled.

"Oh, it's really...," Rong Jin hugged Hua Lei helplessly and couldn't help but lament, "Sister Hua, you are so good, I am really under your control. Ever since we got married, no, ever since I fell in love with you, I have been under your control." Rong Jin let out a sigh that was not sure whether it was a complaint or happiness.

"Really? Then when did you fall in love with me? My grandmother told me that at the beginning, you strongly refused me to be your wife. You said that you would rather become a monk than marry me." Hua Lei remembered that once, when Madam Pei was chatting with her, she mentioned Rong Jin's past.

"Ah...ah, what's wrong with grandma? Why are you so outspoken and say whatever you want? Really, grandma used to love me the most, but she changed after getting married. Now she only knows how to dote on you. Sister Hua, did you cast some kind of spell on grandma? Are you a little goblin?" Rong Jin buried his face in Hua Lei's neck, feeling a little guilty and eager to change the subject.

"Well, yes, I am a goblin. I also know that you said that your grandfather was unreliable because he drank too much, so I arranged this marriage for you... um..." The rest of the words were blocked by the soft lips.

It took a very long time before Rong Jin let go of the person in his arms, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

The next day, Rong Jin got up early and went to find Pei Jingyang and Madam Han in person to tell them that Hua Lei was pregnant. It was unknown what else he said to them.

Pei Jingyang didn't say much about Hua Lei continuing to be on duty, but on the next few days off, he went to have a drink with Minister Zhang to build relationships.

Not long after, Minister Zhang told Hua Lei that the people who measured the land now went out late and came back early, so Hua Lei could delay her shift by one hour in the morning, and leave early after finishing her work.

If the work is not finished, she can take it home and ask Rong Jin to help her do it overtime. So Hua Lei felt more relaxed.

Although Madam Han was very opposed to Hua Lei continuing to serve, Rong Jin protected Hua Lei, so she didn't say anything?
