The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

The people in the room were stunned again when they heard this. Gu Huaijin and Li Nanyi looked at Meng Fanchu in disbelief as if he was speaking normally, fearing that they were hallucinating.

After all, the two had been married for four or five years, but Li Nanyiyi had never been able to get pregnant. People outside were saying that Li Nanyiyi was a woman from the martial arts world, and that she must have injured her body from practicing martial arts and that was why she couldn't get pregnant.

This is also the reason why Li Nanyiyi tolerated Lu Ya again and again. She was afraid that her mother-in-law really disliked her for being unable to have children, so she sent someone to her husband.

She touched her belly in a daze, finding it hard to imagine that there was a little life growing in her body.

Gu Huaijin suppressed his slightly trembling voice and asked in a low voice, "Chu'er, can you see clearly? Your second aunt... is really pregnant?"

After all, she is still young. If she is wrong, she will probably be disappointed.

"Second uncle, second aunt, although I don't know how good my medical skills are, I can still tell that a woman is pregnant." Meng Fanchu said helplessly.

"Just now, when I held Second Aunt's hand, I took her pulse. It was smooth, like beads rolling on a plate. This is a very clear sign of pregnancy, and the fetus is stable. You mentioned earlier that Second Aunt has been feeling unwell recently. I think it's a normal reaction to the pregnancy. It will be fine after the first two months. Remember not to take any medicine without permission."

Gu Huaijin now completely believed what Meng Fanchu said. Just as she said, the pulse of pregnancy is the simplest. Since she understands medicine, she can definitely see such a simple pulse clearly.

He excitedly but carefully took Li Nanyi's hand and said gently, "Madam...you have worked hard."

Li Nanyiyi also came back to her senses and was convinced that there was really a little life in her belly, a child belonging to her and Gu Lang. She felt very sad in her heart, her eyes were full of words, and she shook her head with tears in her eyes.

"Lu Yuan, go get the housekeeper over here. Sell all the servants in this courtyard, except for the three people my cousin mentioned. Go and buy a new batch of capable servants. Madam's situation is special right now, and we can't afford any mistakes."

Gu Huaijin felt a surge of fear. If Chu'er hadn't accidentally discovered the true nature of these wicked slaves today, who knows how they would hurt his wife in the future, and they might even accidentally harm the baby in her belly.

The servants took out several pale-faced and crying maids, and the room instantly returned to silence.

"Chu'er, thank you so much today."

Li Nanyiyi's mind has become much clearer now that she has a child.

As Gu Lang's wife, it is not good for her husband to endure grievances blindly, but she should manage the backyard well so that her husband has no worries. Thinking of how she was bullied by the maid before, her face was a little shocked.

Meng Fanchu understood what she had thought clearly, and it was inconvenient for him to stay any longer, so he called the remaining maids and old women over and instructed them in front of them:

"My second aunt has been pregnant for about a month and a half. She doesn't look very well. I think she can't eat, but she can't not eat. We should prepare a small kitchen in the yard and warm up some fresh food at any time. She has to eat some even if she can't eat, so as to ensure the health of herself and the child."

The people who stayed in the house were all loyal, so they listened carefully to Meng Fanchu's instructions with great joy.

After all, this is their second master's first child, so naturally they have to be treated with care.

Meng Fanchu reminded pregnant women of many things in detail, with an emphasis on diet and daily safety.

It took Gu Huaijin a while to calm down from his joy. After Meng Fanchu finished his instructions, he carefully instructed the remaining maids in the room, and then took everyone out of the inner courtyard to let Li Nanyiyi have a good rest.

When he returned to the study, several people were already waiting there. When they saw Gu Huaijin, they all bowed respectfully, "Second Master."

Gu Huaijinrang said to Meng Fanchu, "These are the subordinates who followed Grandfather that I mentioned to you. They are all trustworthy. You can use them without worry. They all have some martial arts skills. Although their health is not good, they can handle general situations without any problems."

Meng Fanchu saw several strong, kind-looking old men and bowed slightly respectfully: "Uncles, I'm sorry to bother you from now on."

Gu Huaijin prepared four people, three of whom had some martial arts skills, but there was only one older elder who looked very young, with a calm expression on his fair face, but his eyes were shining.

While they were talking, he quietly looked at Meng Fanchu from the side.

When the woman looked over, she looked elsewhere.

Gu Huaijin saw Meng Fanchu curiously sizing up the younger man and introduced him with a smile, "This is Xue Yang, the son of the extremely powerful old butler I told you about. Don't be fooled by his young age, he's more capable than many old butlers."

Meng Fanchu understood: "Then I'll be grateful to Manager Xue for taking care of me from now on."

Naturally, she was very confident in the person her second uncle had found.

Xue Yang didn't say anything, but just clasped his fists in return.

Gu Huaijin continued to introduce the other three people.

The tallest but kindest-looking one is Fang Bo. He is best at tracking, but unfortunately one of his legs is injured and lame, so he can no longer chase the enemy. However, his long-term habit has given him excellent eyesight and he is also good at observing people's expressions.

The slightly chubby one is Qian Bo, who is always smiling but extremely agile, decisive and swift in his actions. However, he is missing two fingers.

The other one's figure was in contrast to Qianbo's. He looked thin and taciturn. He was Mingbo. Although he seemed inconspicuous, he had the highest level of Qinggong.

The person had been met, and Gu Huaijin personally took Meng Fanchu to communicate with Fang Ya. After completing the shop transfer procedures and trading money, the matter was considered settled.

Several seniors did not live in the capital, so Meng Fanchu asked Qiutang to temporarily rent a small courtyard, which was enough for several people to live in.

By the time all this was done, it was already late and there was no time to go to the human tooth market to buy another person, so this was the only way for the time being.

Fortunately, Xue Yang and several seniors did not care about those things. After they retired from the battlefield, they were protected by the old general and had a place to settle down, where they and their families could live in peace, so they were grateful to the general's mansion.

When Gu Huaijin found them, he naturally agreed without any hesitation.

I originally wanted to bring their family back to the capital, but I didn’t know Meng Fanchu’s plan, so I didn’t bring others over for the time being and would discuss it later.

Meng Fanchu had not thought about these things yet. She got on the carriage back to the general's mansion, still immersed in the joy of several important things she had accomplished today.

The carriage suddenly stopped, and Meng Fanchu was caught off guard by inertia and bumped into the window. The pain made her frown. Before she could ask, a young man's arrogant voice came from outside the carriage:

"Is this the cousin you brought back from the General's Mansion?"
