The group's favorite master, the story of a cute baby who travels through the book and defies t

A year ago, Lin Shuhui could still clearly remember that when she learned from the doctor that she was pregnant, she burst into tears of happiness on the spot.

Xu Changyi's family has only one son for three generations, so the pressure of carrying on the family line is unimaginably huge. Although it is not obvious on weekdays, it always makes her toss and turn and unable to sleep in the dead of night.

Although her parents-in-law were open-minded and kind people, and advised her to just take things as they came when it came to having a child, she suddenly felt guilty after they had been married for a year and still hadn't gotten pregnant.

Her anxiety grew day by day, but she dared not and was unwilling to show it at all, because she wanted to be a perfect daughter-in-law of the Xu family.

Therefore, after learning that she was pregnant, even though she didn't know the gender of the baby, she finally felt relieved.

After I went home and told my family the news, everyone was almost crazy with joy.

My father-in-law said that he would hold a banquet for the whole town for three consecutive days, so that everyone would know that their Xu family had a successor, and it would also be a good deed to let beggars and poor people have a full meal for three days.

The mother-in-law immediately decided to go to the nearby temple early the next morning to burn incense and donate merits to pray for blessings and protection for the baby in her belly.

In comparison, her husband was much calmer. Feeling very surprised, Lin Shuhui asked this question when the couple was alone at night. The answer she got was completely beyond her expectations.

"Qingqing, I'm very happy that we have a child. But for me this is not a surprise but a matter of course, because I love you regardless of whether there is a child or not. Besides, I always feel that I can have you all to myself without a child, and having a child will take away half of your love, which makes me feel a little jealous."

Hearing this answer, Lin Shuhui was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She never expected that her silly husband would be jealous of an unborn child. She felt sweet and helpless.

Thanks to the efforts of his father-in-law and his mother-in-law, the news that the Xu family had a child quickly spread throughout Deqing Town. In the following month, the threshold of the Xu family's house was almost trampled down, and there was an endless stream of people coming to the door to congratulate them every day. This was also due to the good results of the Xu family's past good deeds.

But one day, in the third month of pregnancy, the source of the tragedy began.

Lin Shuhui clearly remembered that she went to the temple early that day to burn incense and pray for blessings. When she returned to Xu's house, she saw a man dressed as a fortune teller standing opposite the gate.

"I remember that he had a goatee and wrinkles on his face. He looked like an elderly man. He had a red sandalwood box slung across his body and held a fortune-telling banner in one hand. Other than that, I have no memory of him."

Xu Zhi thought about it based on her description, but these superficial descriptions could be applied to any fortune teller in the market and did not provide any clues. Then his attention was drawn back to Lin Shuhui's next words.

According to Lin Shuhui, out of good intentions she took the initiative to step forward and ask if anyone needed help before entering the room.

Because in the past, there were occasionally some poor and arrogant scholars who heard about the Xu family's charity and wanted to seek help. They were always too embarrassed to knock on the door. Many of them were seen by the servants of the Xu family and then came forward to ask. Naturally, Lin Shuhui also regarded the old man as such a person.

But after she asked, the old man did not answer. Instead, he raised his hand to stroke his goatee, looked her up and down, and finally his eyes stopped on her abdomen.

"You are so bold! How dare you look directly at my young lady? If you keep staring at my young lady, I will call someone to beat you up!"

Lin Shuhui was just about to persuade her maid to go home and ignore this man, but when she turned around, she heard the old man speak.

"You, have been pregnant for nearly three months?"

Lin Shuhui stopped and turned around, but the maid stepped in front of her and responded.

"Everyone in the town knows that the young lady is pregnant. What do you want to do by mentioning this? If it is a blessing, we will accept it and send you some money and food later."

Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head slowly and then sighed deeply.

"How miserable! How miserable! Your husband was destined to have no children, but you are indeed a lucky person, so you can have a child. But your husband is destined to have a bad fate and kill his son. I'm afraid that the child in your belly will end up being nothing."

Lin Shuhui was stunned. After a while, the maid reacted first and spat at the old man angrily.

"Bah, bah, bah! What nonsense are you talking about, you liar! Be careful or I'll get someone to beat you up! The Xu family does good deeds every day and everyone in Deqing Town knows about it. How could it be that their fate is as bad as you said! I think you are just a big liar who wants to cheat people out of money. You will definitely say that you have a way to change our fate, right?"

The old man ignored the maid's scolding and questioning, and just stared at Lin Shuhui with his eyes.

"I can't change your fate, nor can I change the fate of your husband's family. In view of your good deeds in the past, I advise you to abort the baby in your belly as soon as possible. If you don't listen to good advice, the baby in your belly will sooner or later bring disaster to your husband's family!"

Lin Shuhui's face turned pale in an instant, and she staggered and felt dizzy.

The maid hurriedly supported her and turned back to shout at the door. But when she turned back again to scold the old man, she was surprised to find that the old man had disappeared. She hurriedly looked around and found that there was no one there, as if no one had ever been here.

At this time, all the servants in Xu's house rushed out of the door. The maid had no time to think more and forgot about the old man because she was worried about Lin Shuhui who had fainted.

That night, Lin Shuhui leaned on the couch, stroking her belly, in a daze.

She wanted to convince herself that the old man was a liar, but for some reason, she felt frightened every time she thought about it. Xu Changyi, who had just walked in, happened to see her in such a state of anxiety.

After Xu Changyi found out the reason, he was a carefree person and just laughed it off. However, seeing that his wife was worried, he had to patiently coax her for most of the night, and only then did he dispel Lin Shuhui's suspicion and worries.

Time passed quickly and more than three months passed. Lin Shuhui was already six months pregnant.

When she went to the doctor for a check-up, she once again anxiously asked about the condition of the baby in her belly, and the answer she got was still that everything was fine.

But she was still worried because unlike other pregnant women, her belly did not get bigger at all, and there was not even a bulge. She doubted all the time whether she was really pregnant, even though the doctor had given her a positive response countless times.

Even her mother-in-law noticed the abnormality of her pregnancy. She then asked countless doctors to see her, but she always got the same answer.

"Madam is indeed about six months pregnant. As for why she is not showing any signs of pregnancy, I have never encountered such a situation. We can only observe more, but at present, mother and child are safe. Pregnant women must remain optimistic. I suggest that you do not worry too much for now."

After hearing what the doctor said, they were still worried but suppressed their worries for the sake of their child.

However, when she was ten months pregnant, her belly was still motionless, and there was not even the slightest sign of impending birth.

Amid the whispers and gossips of the townspeople, the entire Xu Mansion fell into gloom and sorrow.
