A white lotus attracts swallows

This year's summer seems to be much hotter than in previous years. The scorching sun hangs in the sky as if it is going to roast people, and the temperature is terrible from sunrise to sunset.The whole world is like a steamer, both humans and animals are sweating profusely.The beautiful flowers that bloomed in spring were all dying of the sun, and even the grass was not spared.Yan Junting sympathized with the hard work of the ministers coming to court, and gave them a few days off to recuperate at home, and took his white clothes to the summer resort to cool off.

The afternoon in July is the hardest time to bear. Cicada's tireless chirping makes the already tired people feel even more uncomfortable.

Several frail servants of the Yan Mansion had already collapsed due to heatstroke, Cheng Hua took out a handkerchief and wiped Yan Lu's sweat, and his own chest felt so stuffy.Even if someone made a few sets of ice silk clothes in advance, it could not alleviate the heat at all.If there is no more rain in this kind of weather, I am afraid it will become a drought and wipe out many innocent lives.

Yan Brigade fanned the wind with a big cattail fan while checking the promotions of the major summer resorts.Even he can't stand this kind of horrible weather, let alone his father, mother and Hua'er.

"Sigh, I don't know what's going on this year, why it's so hot, it seems like a drought is a disaster for the world. It's said that there will be fire in July, but now it's shining jade and gold."

Cheng Hua also sighed sullenly, but as if thinking of something, he smiled lightly: "My cousin sent a letter, saying that the third prince is planning to ask the dragon to pray for rain, but I don't know if it will be successful."

"Third prince? Why did cousin Ziyu go to Xiyan?"

"Have you forgotten what the third prince said that time? I guess, he must have used some method to deceive my cousin, and tie him by his side to make a good influence. Cousin has always been emotionally slow, I don't know what happened to them .”

"When your cousin got to his place, he must have been eaten so hard that he didn't run away."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

Yan Lu laughed twice, and didn't want to see any more places to cool off, so he wiped off his sweat and went to Cheng Hua's side: "The third prince and I are in the same way, you can be eaten to death by me Dead, let alone cousin Ziyu with him."

"A fellow?" Cheng Hua laughed and teased, "Oh? Is that as eloquent and smooth-tongued as you, or does he like to linger among the flowers like you?"

"I..." Yan Lu choked, and said flatteringly: "Hua'er, it's not that I was young and ignorant. Now that I've lost my way, you just don't remember the mistakes of villains, okay?"

"What fault do you have for being a villain? I was eaten to death by you, how could I remember your fault?"

Yan Lu respectfully leaned down on his lap, harassing him through the thin silk, but said seriously: "I was wrong, it was Hua'er who ate me to death, I can't speak stinky mouth. Huaermo is angry, okay?"

It's okay for Cheng Hua to fight with him, but if Yan Lu gets started, he won't be able to do anything.After being touched, he began to feel distracted. The weather was already sultry, but now he felt as if his whole body was going to burn, so he could only smile helplessly and push him: "Go away, it's so hot."

The person lying on the lap didn't follow at all, and slowly straightened up while talking nasty little love words, and kissed from the navel to the mouth.

Cheng Hua suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

It wasn't the suffocation from the lack of oxygen from the kiss, nor the stuffiness caused by the hot weather, but the weakness coming from deep in his body. This weakness made his eyes go black for a moment, and he almost fainted.Consciousness was slowly withdrawn, and all parts of the body lost sensation.

Yan Lu sensed his abnormality, let go of him, and found that his face was frighteningly pale, and was startled: "Hua'er?!"

Thinking that it might be heatstroke, he hurriedly carried him to the back room, and asked someone to fetch a bucket of cold water from the well to apply to him.

This action alarmed the two elders of the Yan family, and hurriedly sent someone to get some ice from the ice cellar to cool down in the room.Cheng Hua had recovered from the cold compress for a while, stood up and declined their kindness.

"Hua'er is already much better, but she suddenly felt dizzy just now, parents don't need to worry."

Heat stroke is like this, just rest more in a cool and ventilated place.Mother Yan gave a few more instructions before leaving.

But in the next few days, Cheng Hua would still feel dizzy from time to time. Although he wouldn't pass out, he still had to support his head for a while.At first, he felt that it was too hot, but even applying a wet towel or soaking in the pool did not relieve his symptoms at all, and he even gradually developed nausea and loss of appetite.

Cheng Hua is also helpless, although it is very touching that the husband cares about him, but if this continues, let alone Yan Lu, he himself will not be able to bear it.Facing Shang Yan Lu's worried eyes, he could only say relaxedly: "It's also strange, it's never been like this before. Could it be that my husband spoiled Hua'er too much, making her body so delicate."

That's what he said, but Yan Lu felt even more pity for him when he looked haggard and forced himself to smile so as not to worry them.

"It should be that I don't pamper you enough to make you feel so uncomfortable."

At dinner that day, Mother Yan watched Cheng Hua hold up her chopsticks and refused to remove her mouth for a long time. She was just about to ask him to let him cool down before eating. Suddenly, she thought of a possibility, and her cloudy eyes lit up. Got up, and asked cautiously: "Hua'er, you are like this... there must be news?"

"You got news……?"

Mother Yan put down her chopsticks and clapped her hands: "Why didn't I think of that! Hua'er, maybe you are pregnant, which makes you feel so uncomfortable!"

Cheng Hua's eyes widened.Turning his head to one side, Yan Lu was looking at him, with a hot light burning in his eyes.

Old General Yan waved his hand resolutely, not intending to eat: "Go, go call the doctor!"

The doctor with gray temples put his hand on Cheng Hua's wrist, felt it for a while, stood up and smiled, and bowed to the elder of the Yan family: "Congratulations to General Yan, Mrs. Yan, the young lady is indeed pregnant, and she is already pregnant. More than a month."

Mother Yan burst into tears immediately, and said that she would find a good day to worship the Bodhisattva; Old General Yan also laughed heartily, and asked Yan Liu to prepare and tell the ancestors of the Yan family; His face was so red, he stepped forward and hugged Cheng Hua for a long time, unable to speak.

This is an indescribable sense of happiness. The person I love the most will give birth to a child for me, a child belonging to the two of them.They will have a complete small family, and they will be able to witness the birth and growth of a small life together.He couldn't help thinking about it in the future, thinking that their children had grown up and started a family, and the two of them were holding hands with gray hair and looking at the sunset in the sky together.Just thinking about it roughly, he couldn't stop laughing, like a child who has eaten candy.

Cheng Hua was also stunned by this sudden news, for a moment he couldn't believe that there was a small life in his stomach.This is his and Yan Lu's child, which he has always wanted.He will grow up slowly in his stomach, and then break away, growing into a heroic and brave man like his father, who will become their pride...

The whole family was immersed in the joy of having a new baby, and it was not until the sky finally darkened that they realized that they had to deal with their own affairs.Yan Lu sat on the edge of the bed with his arms around Cheng Hua, gently stroking Cheng Hua's still flat belly, his palms were still trembling.

Cheng Hua looked up at him, smiled and said, "Congratulations, you are going to be a father."

Yan Lu took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly, hugging the person in his arms tighter: "I love you, Hua'er."

"...he is pregnant with... a child...?"

In the dark and dreary room, the beautiful lady of the past had lost her brilliance, her thin hands were twisting hard on the plain singlet, and then loosened again.The big eyes are no longer flexible, they are stretched to the maximum, appearing gloomy and penetrating.She kept repeating this sentence like a dream, like a sorceress who was casting a spell, but she suddenly burst into tears while chanting.

"He's pregnant...he's got a baby..."

With tears in her eyes, she turned to Si'er and asked Si'er: "Why...why didn't I? Why didn't I?" The crying gradually became louder, and she cried like a mother who just lost her child.

"I've been with him for more than a year, why didn't I...why?!!"

Seeing Qing Ji's pitiful look, Si'er couldn't help shedding tears. She just felt that Cheng Hua had robbed Qing Ji of her glory and wealth and forced her to live a despicable life in this gloomy little corner.

Qing Ji was originally a prostitute, and was often fed some contraceptive drugs.Over time, pregnancy has become a difficult thing. There are many sisters who are conscientious or redeemed by others and cannot have children in their entire lives. This is also their sadness.Even if she pestered Yan Lu to beg day and night, and went everywhere to inquire about folk remedies, she still failed.She is unwilling to admit this fact, and she can comfort herself in Yan Lu's pampering.But when Cheng Hua's news came, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing her to collapse immediately.

Si'er choked with sobs and said, "Second Young Madam, don't be sad, Si'er is going to fetch some running water and dress up Second Young Madam. Second Young Madam is so beautiful, how could Young Madam be able to compare..."

She felt sorry for Qing Ji, but she left too hastily and didn't hear Qing Ji's murmur.

"It's gone... I have nothing... my son, my first wife... nothing..."

"I'm going to die without dignity in this kind of place...I don't want...my glory and wealth..."

"I don't want to be here...I want to go out...I want to go..."
