his gaze towards Ripples was very sharp."I don't know what you want from me, but if you want to kill me, there's no need to go through all this trouble of bringing me here. Just shoot me."The ripples...When Zhen's grandma saw that there was a puddle of water under Lianyi's feet, she knew her amniotic sac had broken. She immediately said to Mei Zhi:

"Mei Zhi, you go open the prepared birthing room door and check it again. I'll support Madam."

"Yes!"

Mei Zhi was also a bit flustered. Her own future depended on what the young mistress would give birth to, so she practically ran to open the delivery room door and began checking carefully.

"Yue Mei, please go to the front yard and inform Madam that the young mistress is in labor."

Yes, grandma!

"Yue Hua (hua), go call the midwife."

Yes, Grandma.

"Fu An, please ask the imperial physician to come over and prepare in advance."

Yes, grandma.

Fu'an, the gatekeeper boy in Lianyi Courtyard, heard Zhen Mama's order and immediately turned to run outside.

Ripple was very satisfied with Zhen Mama's ability to respond. Now, more than ever, it was important to stay calm.

"Grandma, the delivery room has been checked and there's no problem."

"Mei Zhi, go to the kitchen and tell them to boil some hot water and have two pots ready. The midwife will need it in a while. Also, ask them to cook a bowl of bird's nest soup and bring it over."

Okay, I'll go now.

Mei Zhi ran back to the small kitchen.

Seeing that Lianyi's face was still looking good, Zhen Mama turned her head and soothed:

"Madam, how are you feeling now"

"My stomach hurts a little, in waves."

Ren Yi wrinkled her brow deliberately.

Then I'll help you walk around for a bit. There should still be some time before labor, and when the bird's nest porridge arrives, eat some to give you the strength to have your baby.

"Okay, I'll listen to Grandma."

As soon as Lin’s ripples finished speaking, Madam Lin arrived at Ripples’ courtyard with her maidservants. One of the maidservants was holding a box in her hand, presumably containing life-saving items.

"Ripple, what do you think"

"Mother, you've come, now I can rest assured."

Ripple finished speaking and deliberately tightened her grip on Granny Zhen's wrist, her face paling as she said:

"Grandma, quickly help me inside, the child is walking down!"

"Hurry, help him inside!"

Mrs. Lin immediately said, she didn't expect her daughter-in-law to be so fast.

When Liàn Yī landed on the delivery bed, both the midwife and the imperial physician arrived, taking turns tending to her.

The imperial physician took Lin's pulse and said to her:

"Madam, rest assured, the young mistress is in good health and will be able to endure until the end of labor."

The midwife patted Lianyi's belly and said to Mrs. Lin outside the door:

"Rest assured, madam. The young mistress's fetus is positioned correctly and should be born very soon."

Ripples felt that it was almost time, so she mobilized her spiritual energy to send the boy out first.

"Come on, the baby is out!"

Two midwives were frantically catching the first child, and after a cup of tea's time, the second child was also born. From when ripples entered the delivery room to the birth of the children, it was only half an hour, it was simply too smooth.

Mrs. Lin, listening to her child's loud cries from outside, finally felt a stone lifted from her heart.

After the midwife carried out two babies, her eyes crinkled with laughter and she said loudly:

"Congratulations, Madam! Best wishes to you, Madam! Your son-in-law has given birth to a son and a daughter, making a 'good' word."

Mrs. Lin immediately took her eldest grandson, smiling and asking:

Who's the boss

"This sturdy young master is the eldest son, and the slightly slimmer one is the younger daughter."

The midwife immediately said.

"Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Everyone receives a reward, and the entire household will receive an extra month's salary."

"Thank you, madam."

The midwife immediately thanked

The entire Ministry of Personnel was filled with festive cheer. When Lin Yaizu returned and learned that Lian Yi had given him a son and a daughter, he was also delighted and squinted his eyes in happiness.

Even Lin Shangshu had someone deliver many provisions to Lian'i, and he himself, being a grandfather now.

When Lady He arrived at the Shangshu Mansion after hearing the news of Lianyi's childbirth, Lianyi had already given birth. Both children were being watched by a dedicated wet nurse and maidservant. She wanted to make her move but didn't get the chance. She only got to glance at the children briefly before being ushered into the main hall.

Mrs. Lin smiled and said to Mrs. Hou:

"Madam Hou, your teachings have truly borne fruit. Liyan has given birth to both a son and a daughter this time. With the addition of these little ones to the household, it's a matter of great joy."

"

This is all the ripples should do, this is her duty as a wife.

"

Knowing that she probably couldn't spoil the mood at this moment, Madam Hou could only say so.

"When it comes to the third round of tea, your mother-in-law absolutely has to be here!"

Mrs. Lin immediately invited him.

"I will definitely come."

Mrs. Hou said some polite words, left the things she brought, and went home. Her frustration was palpable.

The ripples have spread, the melon has ripened and fallen from the vine. What's most heartbreaking is his own youngest daughter. Now, Madam Hou doesn't know how to face her own daughter. The previously planned schemes are no longer viable.

Because my youngest daughter is getting uglier and uglier now, I wouldn't even want to see her face if she appeared before me once. If we met on the street, I wouldn't recognize her as my own daughter.

Besides, the youngest daughter's temper has become increasingly worse. She flies into a rage and throws things at any given moment, even resorting to hitting and scolding others. Only when facing her does she restrain her own anger.

But some of the servants in her circle didn't want to serve the youngest daughter anymore, and the matter escalated to the Marquis. The Marquis only told her to send the youngest daughter to the estate; after all, the legitimate daughters of the Hou Mansion already had their place.

After sighing, Madam Hou could only follow suit. Originally, she had arranged for someone to send her youngest daughter away today, but upon receiving news from the Shangshu's Mansion that Lianyi had given birth, her plans were disrupted.

As expected, when Xue Lian'yi heard that her elder sister had given birth to a boy and a girl, she went berserk and smashed everything in her boudoir. Even Madam Hou couldn't stop her.

Mrs. Hou rubbed her temples, looking at her youngest daughter's hideous face, and made a decision in her heart. She ordered someone to knock her daughter unconscious and send her to the estate that night.

When Xue Lianyi woke up, there was another commotion, but no one would help her. Those servants were also like watching dishes and cooking, starting to bully her openly and secretly.

There was still one person in the Shangshu Mansion who was furious, it was Gao's concubine from the back courtyard. She glared venomously in the direction of the main courtyard, then touched her slightly bulging belly.

"What a lucky couple! They actually gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl."

"Aunt, be careful with your words!"

Gao Yi's maid immediately reminded her.

"I know, there's no one else here. What harm can a few words do"

Gao Yiniang said unhappily.

"Sister-in-law, the more so now, you must remain calm and composed. Take good care of yourself and the child in your womb. This is your biggest bargaining chip. What if getting angry affects the child in your belly"

The maidservant is still very good at giving advice.

"I know, my future wealth and prosperity will all depend on the child in my belly."

"My aunt is right, I asked someone to calculate it for us, and they said that the child in your womb is a young master. We must make sure nothing happens, we'll wait until the child is born before making any plans."

"I know."

Gao Yiniang knew the seriousness of the situation, so she only grumbled a few words and continued to hide in her own courtyard to raise her fetus. She truly never left the house, checking everything that entered carefully, fearing there might be something wrong with the child in her womb.ut this. You've been running around all day outside, and you must be very tired. It's not suitable for you to go investigate. Just stay home and take good care of Jia Yao. Wait for our good news."Ripp...
