Marrying for someone else and being a widow? Stepmothers open classes to raise children

Wu Jingying's eyes were red, and she forced a smile: "I know, but sometimes I can't control my emotions."

Nanny Yang looked at Wu Jingying and said earnestly, "It's normal for pregnant women to have big mood swings. But you also have to be careful. It's not good for your baby's development because it's too harmful to your body. You have to learn to regulate your emotions and be strong for your baby."

Wu Jingying felt warm in her heart after hearing what Yang Ma said. She looked at Madam, with a hint of help in her eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Zhiyi patted Wu Jingying's hand gently and said softly: "Jingying, you have had a hard time during this period, but you must believe that we will get through this difficult period together. Now, listen to Yang Ma's advice and adjust your mood, okay?"

Wu Jingying nodded slightly, trying to calm herself down. She took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Thank you for your concern. I will try to adjust my mood for the sake of the child and for us."

Gu Zhiyi nodded and said, "Okay, in that case, I have decided to go to Bailu Academy in person to find out Yun Chen's true attitude towards you. Before that, I hope you can rest well and stay healthy."

Wu Jingying felt warm at heart when she heard this. This was her mother caring about her. She raised her head slightly, with a gleam of gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you for your concern, mother. I will obey your orders."

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly and said, "Also, I have instructed the servants to invite the Feng family doctor. You can ask him to diagnose your fetus later. After all, you are pregnant now and need special care."

Wu Jingying was shocked. She didn't expect Gu Zhiyi to be so considerate. She felt relieved. She hurriedly asked, "Mother, can I...can I?"

Gu Zhiyi gently patted Wu Jingying's shoulder and said, "Of course, you are my daughter-in-law, so I naturally have to care about your health. Go, go and ask the Feng family doctor."

Wu Jingying nodded slightly and turned away. Her heart was full of gratitude and determination. As long as she treated Xie Yunchen sincerely, she would get his understanding one day.

On the way back to her room, Wu Jingying met Feng Fuyi, an old doctor in the mansion with excellent medical skills and integrity. When he saw Wu Jingying, he hurried forward to greet her.

"Madam, you called me?" asked the doctor from the Feng Mansion.

Wu Jingying nodded slightly and said, "Yes, Doctor Feng, my wife instructed me to come and ask you to diagnose my fetus."

Hearing this, Feng Fuyi suddenly became serious. He followed Wu Jingying to the room. Wu Jingying was lying on the bed, and Feng Fuyi felt her pulse.

After a moment, Doctor Feng put down the pulse pillow in his hand and nodded slightly: "Madam, congratulations, the fetus is doing well."

Wu Jingying was overjoyed when she heard this. She hurriedly said, "Thank you, Doctor Feng. Thank you for your trouble."

Doctor Feng smiled and said, "You are too polite, Madam. This is my job. However, you must pay more attention during pregnancy and keep a happy mood so that the fetus can grow healthily."

Wu Jingying nodded slightly, and she secretly vowed in her heart that she must create a good growth environment for the baby in her belly.

Gu Zhiyi sat in the main seat, calm and determined, explaining to Xie Huiyi and Xie Huixuan why she and Wu Jingying had set up a plan to make Xie Yunchen agree to study.

"The reason why Jingying and I teamed up to set up this scheme is because we both have a common goal, which is to change Xie Yunchen's behavior." Gu Zhiyi's tone was calm, but revealed her firmness and determination. "Xie Yunchen is the eldest grandson of our Ningguo Mansion. His behavior not only affects his personal future, but also the future of our entire family. If he continues like this, he will have no hope of inheriting the title in the future, and the reputation of our Ningguo Mansion will also be damaged."

Xie Huixuan interrupted, "Then how did you convince Sister Wu? Hasn't she always been against Big Brother studying?"

Gu Zhiyi sighed: "I told her that only by making Xie Yunchen understand his responsibilities can he truly grow into a qualified heir. And reading is the best way to make him understand all this. Although Jingying was a little hesitant at first, she was finally convinced by me."

Xie Huiyi nodded with tears in her eyes: "So that's how it is. Sister Wu's love for Big Brother is really deep." Xie Huiyi's voice choked with sobs. She wiped away her tears and continued, "She is willing to make such a sacrifice for Xie Yunchen."

Gu Zhiyi continued, "I deliberately spread this matter. On the one hand, it was to expose Aunt Li's ambition. She has always wanted to use Xie Yunchen to control the family. On the other hand, I wanted to use the pressure of public opinion to make the relationship between Xie Yunchen and Wu Jingying more stable. Only in this way can they face future challenges together."

Xie Huixuan asked worriedly, "Now that the matter has become a hot topic, does mother have any solution?"

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly, with a sly look in her eyes: "It is not convenient for me to reveal the countermeasures. But don't worry, since I dare to do this, I will certainly make sure that Yun Chen can study smoothly, and at the same time, Aunt Li's conspiracy will fail."

Hearing this, Xie Huiyi and Xie Huixuan looked at each other. They had absolute trust in their mother Gu Zhiyi's wisdom and ability.

"Mother, can we go to Bailu Academy together to visit my eldest brother?" Xie Huixuan suddenly suggested.

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly: "Of course. That's what I meant. The environment of Bailu Academy is quiet and peaceful, which will be of great benefit to Yunchen's studies. If you go together, he can also feel the support of the family."

The quaint gate of Bailu Academy slowly opened in front of Gu Zhiyi and his group. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves onto the bluestone slabs, casting a mottled light and shadow.

Gu Zhiyi led Xie Huiyi and Xie Huixuan through the spacious front yard and into the living room with ease. After the two sat down, Gu Zhiyi turned and went to the headmaster's study.

In the study, Du Yusheng was sitting in front of the chessboard, staring at the situation on the board with a sharp gaze. Hearing the footsteps, he raised his head and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Zhiyi, you're here." Du Yusheng greeted.

Gu Zhiyi nodded gently, walked to the chessboard, and said with a smile: "Shanzhang, your chess skills have improved again today. I wonder if you can let me learn a thing or two?"

Du Yusheng waved his hand and smiled, "Zhiyi, you are overpraising me. We play chess mainly to exchange ideas and not to focus on winning or losing."

The two men sat down, and the black and white chess pieces were arranged in an orderly manner on the chessboard. Gu Zhiyi's eyes swept lightly across the chessboard and then landed on a black piece.

"Principal, I heard that some students in the academy are quite difficult to manage. Is this true?" Gu Zhiyi asked tentatively.

Du Yusheng smiled slightly, picked up a white piece, and gently placed it on the chessboard: "It is true. There are two students in the academy who are particularly difficult to get along with."

"Oh? Which two are they?" Gu Zhiyi asked curiously.

"One is called Li Quansheng. He is indeed very talented, but he is stubborn and difficult to get along with. The other is He Zimo, a talented man from a powerful family. Although he is not as talented as Li Quansheng, he is arrogant and often comes into conflict with others." Du Yusheng explained.
