When the people in the General's Mansion knew that Shan Li and the others were coming back, they all became busy.

I was always worried about their situation, but now I can finally put my mind at ease.

The previous letter said that they would arrive early in the morning, but in the end, the whole family waited until the evening and still didn't see any sign of them.

I feel indescribably anxious and conflicted.

I'm afraid something unexpected might happen.

"They're back! They're back! The young master and the young mistress are back!"

The little maid who reported the news shouted all the way and ran towards Jing'an Hall.

Everyone along the way heard the noise.

A smile appeared on everyone's face involuntarily.

The old lady almost couldn't sit still, but was persuaded by Lou.

Although she was also very anxious.

After a while, Shan Li entered Jing'an Hall alone, facing everyone in the family, and respectfully bowed and greeted them without any perfunctory attitude.

"Why are you alone? Where is your wife?" After receiving the greetings, the old lady looked hard behind her grandson, but she couldn't see any trace of her grandson's wife.

Lou was also very anxious and asked hurriedly, "Yes, where is Ah Ci? What happened?"

She knew Ah Ci well. He would definitely come to pay his respects when he returned home from a trip.

Now that he's not showing up, I'm afraid something bad has happened.

Thinking of this, not only her, but everyone in the room changed their expressions.

"Mother, please allow me to report." Shan Li looked around before speaking, "Ah Ci is not feeling well now. I have asked her to return to Chixiao Court to rest."

"What happened to Aci? Is he sick or injured?" Lou's face looked very ugly.

She had been feeling apprehensive ever since they left the house.

Instead of staying at home to recuperate after recovering from a serious illness, he was sent out on official business by His Majesty.

We also encountered a flood in the south of the Yangtze River.

How can you not get sick after going through so much trouble!

"Mother, Ah Ci isn't sick. She's pregnant." Shan Li saw everyone's grim expressions and quickly explained. "We found out Ah Ci was pregnant on our way back, so we slowed down. Ah Ci had been having severe morning sickness for the past two days, so I took the initiative and didn't let her come to pay her respects. Instead, I sent her back to Chi Xiao Court to rest."

When he finished speaking, the room fell into silence for a while.

"Brother! Are you saying that my sister-in-law is pregnant! And I'm going to be an aunt?!" Shan Xi's excited voice broke the sudden silence.

"Yes, you are going to be an aunt."

"That's great! I'm going to be an aunt! That's great! That's great!" Shan Xi was so happy that she didn't know how to express herself and could only brainwash herself.

The old lady, who had come to her senses, was so happy that Aunt Zhang almost couldn't persuade her.

Lou was happy but immediately reacted, "No, I have to go to the warehouse and find out all the medicinal herbs that are suitable for preserving the fetus and giving them all to A Ci." As she was about to go out, Dan Li suddenly grabbed her.

"Mother, don't be so anxious. Ah Ci is a doctor herself, so you should listen to her about the pregnancy. If she says she needs you, it won't be too late for you to find her."

"Yes, yes, you are right. Let her rest well now. If there is anything you need, wait until she is well rested. If there is nothing in the house, go find it outside. Don't be afraid to spend money."

"Oh right, now that Ah Ci is pregnant, you have to behave yourself and stop bothering her! Do you hear me?"

Shan Li immediately understood what his mother was saying, and his ears turned red. "Mother, we know our own business. I've paid my respects and will go back to accompany Ah Ci."
