Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Shen Nankui shook her head and said, "Lectures are nothing more than a waste of words. It won't tire me out. What's more, I can't just abandon the children just because I'm pregnant."

Mother Gu glanced at her with extreme disapproval.

"Now that our family is doing business, we are no longer short of money and do not need to rely on the little stipend you collect. Why don't you just stay at home and let people take good care of you. The most important thing is to give birth to the baby smoothly. Chuan'er will be in high school soon, and the baby in your belly is naturally extremely important. How can you make any mistakes?"

Shen Nankui still shook her head, "Mother-in-law, there is no need to persuade me anymore. I know my limits."

Seeing her stubborn look, Mother Gu got angry.

"I am thinking of you out of kindness, please don't be ungrateful. When your sister-in-law was pregnant, she still had to cook and clean the house. After the pregnancy was stable, she had to go to the fields to work as usual. Now I want you to enjoy the good life, but you refuse to enjoy it and choose to suffer. It doesn't matter if you are tired, but if my little grandson is tired, wouldn't it make me feel heartbroken?"

Shen Nankui ignored her and only asked the doctor: "Doctor Tian, ​​if I continue to teach in the private school, will it affect the baby in my belly?"

Doctor Tian, ​​who was from Lai'an Town, witnessed how Shen Nankui had come to where she is today step by step. He admired such a tenacious and intelligent woman very much, especially now, when he saw that she was pregnant but still did not forget her duties, he admired her even more.

It is very pertinent to say: "Teaching does not consume physical energy but it consumes mental energy, so it will not have much impact on the fetus. Mr. Shen has fulfilled his duties and can continue to teach, but remember not to overwork. A combination of work and rest is the best for the growth of the fetus."

"Thank you, Doctor Tian. I will keep it in mind."

Shen Nankui looked at Mother Gu and said, "Mother-in-law, the doctor said there's nothing wrong with it. You should be relieved, right?"

Mother Gu glared at her for a while before snorting coldly, "Well, it's up to you to do whatever you want. I can't control you anymore!"

Alas, although my second daughter-in-law was not very obedient in the past, she was still respectful after all.

Now, everyone in the Gu family is on her side, and she is in charge of the business. What I say is of no use to her at all.

What a pity!

She is such a wretched mother-in-law!

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Mother Liu followed her very smartly and said a lot of nice words to comfort her, which made Mother Gu feel much better.

After sending the doctor away, Liang stayed in the room to talk to Shen Nankui.

"Second sister-in-law, I was right, wasn't I? You are pregnant. Your child was conceived in the first month of the year. You will surely have a happy and prosperous life in the future!"

Shen Nankui stroked her belly and couldn't help but smile.

"Happy, wealthy and noble, these words are really the best. I also hope that this child can be like what my sister-in-law said."

In her previous life, her biological father died early, and after her identity was revealed, her biological mother also died of illness. She didn't even have the chance to see them.

In the Shen family, she was a disgusting outsider. After going to the Marquis' Mansion, she was also alone, without a husband to support her, and without any flesh and blood to care for her. When she was dying, she was only surrounded by a few loyal servants of the Marquis' Mansion.

Oh yes, she also has an adopted son.

The adopted son came to the marquis's mansion when he was two years old. In the beginning, he listened to her and was particularly close to her. Outsiders who saw her would praise her for her loving mother and filial son. But later, the adopted son found out from somewhere the truth about her marriage to Prince Qi, and he sneered at the adoptive parents in his heart. From then on, he was only respectful to her in public, but secretly close to his biological parents.

At that time, Shen Nankui had regarded this adopted son as her hope for the rest of her life. She was originally sad about this matter for a long time, but not long after, she herself fell ill and died of depression...

And in this life, she met Gu Yichuan, and now she has this child.

Gu Yichuan is her husband, and they promised to stay together for life. The child in her belly is the continuation of her bloodline and the closest person to her in this world.

She is no longer alone.

"Second brother's wife, why are you crying?" Liang asked in surprise.

Shen Nankui came back to her senses, reached out and touched her face. There were water marks on her fingertips, but she didn't even notice that she had started crying.

Liang sat beside her, holding her hand and said, "This is a happy event, you should be happy, why are you sad? I know, you are young, and this is your first pregnancy, you must be scared, right?"

Liang said in a gentle voice, "Don't be afraid, second sister-in-law, we have our eldest sister-in-law here. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me. If I'm not here, there's still Mother Liu. She's also experienced. I'll ask her to take good care of you... Stop crying, you're pregnant. If you don't take care of yourself, and you give birth to a crybaby, I won't help you comfort her!"

Shen Nankui burst into laughter and said, "If my sister-in-law doesn't coax me, the baby in my belly will have a pair of brothers and sisters to coax me. I'm not worried at all."

Liang smiled and shook her head, "Those two brats, please don't bully me!"

They both laughed.

Shen Nankui wiped her tears with her handkerchief and said, "Sister-in-law is right. This is a happy event. I can't wait to be happy. I will write a letter to Yichuan immediately to tell him the good news!"

"wrong……"

She just stood up, but then froze in place.

"The Spring Examination will be held in two days. If I write to him now, it might affect his performance. How about I tell him about it after the results are announced, giving him a surprise?"

"fair enough."

Liang nodded and smiled, "If you tell my second brother now, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait and will rush back!"

Shen Nankui let out a breath slowly and suppressed his excitement.

"Forget it, let's wait for a while."

Seeing that she was still walking out, Liang asked, "Hey, didn't you say you wouldn't send the letter? Where are you going?"

Shen Nankui turned around and smiled, "Sister-in-law forgot that Hehua is still in the private school helping me keep an eye on the children. I should go over there too."

Liang nodded and said, "You must take care of yourself. It's a good opportunity for me to go to the new house to have a look. I came back this time for a rest, to see the children, and secondly, Qingrong asked me to take a look at the construction of the house."

The Gu family’s new house is already under construction. It’s located not far from here and is on a piece of land that Gu Qingrong recently purchased.

When Shen Nankui arrived at the private school, he thought the children were all reading quietly, but he heard the sound of reading before he even stepped into the door.

When she went in, she saw Hu Wenyan inside, leading the students in their studies.

Hu Wenyan has changed back into her girl's attire today. She looks elegant and graceful with a scroll in her hand, as if she is a talented woman who has walked out of a painting.

Shen Nankui listened to her lecturing inside and did not go in to disturb her. He waited until she finished speaking before standing at the door and applauding, then looking at the students.

"Have you met Master Hu?"
