His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling

Qi Hao already prepared a plan for Xiao Fang and because he didn’t know that Xiao Fang would bring her friends, he had to tweak the plan a little bit in the end, so all of them could follow them along. It was only a simple matter, thus, he didn’t feel bothered by it.

The trio let Qi Hao and Xiao Fang had a few moments by themselves because they knew that Qi Hao still wanted to teach her some things. It wasn’t good for them to be around.

The night before their departure, Yao Ying and Yao Ling received an urgent message from Wang Fu --- well, not one message actually, but two! The other one was from Lin Fu. They were a bit confused why General Lin sent them a message because they were rarely in contact ah~!

"Ying, Father has never sent an urgent message before! There must be something important happened at Wang Fu!" Yao Ling said worriedly.

Yao Ying nodded in agreement. "I think so too! General Lin also sent us a letter! Is there something happened to Lin Fu too?" He looked at the letters in confusion.

Yao Ling shook her head. "I don’t think so! If there was something big happened, I’m sure that Lin Jian would already tell us!"

"That’s also true!" Yao Ying said and couldn’t guess what the old men wanted from them.

"Let’s read the letters then!" Yao Ling demanded softly and Yao Ying agreed with her. They were very curious about what the letters would say.

When Yao Ying read the content of both letters, he really didn’t know whether they should laugh or cry. Yao Ling could see Yao Ying’s weird expression, thus, she asked, "Ying... what’s wrong?" She felt that something wasn’t right.

Yao Ying gave her the letters and said, "Just read it yourself and you will know!"

Yao Ling had the same reaction as Yao Ying when she read the letter... She really didn’t know whether she should laugh or cry ah~! It seemed like their previous worry for the two old men was really useless.

Both of them asked the same question and she even thought that they must have written the letters together side by side. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence? "Yao Ying... Yao Ling... it has been six months. Is there a piece of happy news that both of you want to share?"

The only difference was the signature at the bottom of each letter.

Of course, they knew what it meant.

It was all about the bet!

They were asking whether Yao Ling was pregnant or not...

"Ying... it seems like the bet is really important to them!" Yao Ling said in between her laughter. She even let a tear came out and had to wipe it with her sleeve.

"Yes ah~!" Yao Ying said. "They didn’t even try to ask us whether we are doing well here or not." This part truly wronged the two old men ah~! They always monitored them with their own people and also sent extra hidden guards for protection, that was the reason why they didn’t need to ask about their wellbeing.

Yao Ling nodded her head in agreement. "Haiyah~! These two old men are really childish!"

"It’s lucky that you remember to drink the medicine or else we will break our promise to General Lin," Yao Ying said.

Yao Ling bit her lower lip and didn’t reply to Yao Ying’s words. She only took a peek at him and after that, she was looking down and biting her lower lip once more... she made Yao Ying feel that she was feeling guilty of something...

Yao Ying sweated when he looked at Yao Ling’s expression and he got a bad feeling about it. "What’s wrong? Did something happen?" He asked in a hurry.

Yao Ling answered hesitantly, "Actually... I did drink the medicine back then..." She also just knew this thing ah~!

Yao Ying laughed after patting her own chest. "You scared me just now!" Yao Ying thought that Yao Ling was joking and just trying to scare him.

Yao Ling added softly, "But..." She also didn’t know how to tell Yao Ying about this matter ah~! Because honestly, this thing was really stupid...

"But what?" Yao Ying started to feel agitated once more. "What’s wrong?" Yao Ling’s behavior really made him feel nervous as well ah~!

"Something happened back then..." Yao Ling admitted. "Because of the dream, I was too agitated and I forgot to tell you after Xiao Yu told me." Xiao Yu also didn’t know that she had made a mistake.

"Tell me!" Yao Ying couldn’t wait to hear the answer.

"Back then, I let Xiao Yu help me make the medicine and I was the one who prepared the ingredients. Because I was too shy to tell her what it was for, I told her that it was a tonic medicine to nourish my body..." Yao Ling said.

Yao Ying nodded his head. He knew Yao Ling’s character and she must have been really shy back then, so he didn’t find any fault in it. "Then?"

"When Xiao Yu walked back, someone bumped into her and accidentally spilled the whole medicine to Xiao Yu’s clothes. However, that person was quite rich and also magnanimous. He took the responsibilities to replace the medicine and Xiao Yu’s clothes with new ones. Thus, she was given money to buy the ingredients herself. Since I said that it was only a nourishment tonic, Xiao Yu didn’t think that it was a big deal. At that time, I was sleeping once more and she didn’t want to bother me..." Yao Ling trailed off at the last part.

Because Yao Ling was sleeping, she didn’t aware that such a thing happened. Besides, nourishment tonic’s ingredients were really easy to get ah~!

It was rare for important people such as that guest to be so generous and when accidentally bumping to a maidservant, a simple sorry would suffice. Many people mostly wouldn’t even bother to say sorry to a mere maidservant. What a coincidence! It was good luck for Xiao Yu, but bad luck for Yao Ling ah~!

"Xiao Yu went to the pharmacy by herself and because this girl didn’t know the ingredients list, so she asked for the ingredients list of nourishment tonics from one of the famous doctors there," Yao Ling said.

"She didn’t tell you this?" Yao Ying asked in surprise. Xiao Yu was usually very meticulous. Why didn’t she tell Yao Ling when such a big thing happened?

"How could she when after that I was in a coma?" Yao Ling asked helplessly.

Yao Ying sighed. "When did she tell you?"

"A few days ago..." Yao Ling said.

"We’ve made love again after that... Did you drink the medicine?" Yao Ying asked softly.

Yao Ling shook her head softly. "No..." She answered meekly.

Yao Ying asked in a hoarse voice, "Why?" He really didn’t know whether he should get angry or not. Yao Ling’s pitiful face made him weak ah~!

"I’m afraid that if I’m accidentally pregnant... it will harm the child..." Yao Ling admitted. She just couldn’t do it... she didn’t dare to gamble the future of her child.

Yao Ying sighed, knowing that Yao Ling had made the right decision. It was just he didn’t think of that reason before and he almost blamed Yao Ling! Because of that, he was feeling guilty. He also cared for their future child ah~!

"Are... are you pregnant?" Yao Ying asked excitedly. Somehow, he forgot about the bet... Their child was more important.

He waited for Yao Ling’s answer nervously!
