古代闺秀被强高H

Chapter 786: Arriving earlier

Though there were many who liked Yu Dong now, there were always some annoying pests who liked to make things difficult for others. One of these very few pests was Madam Chou, she was their neighbour and a woman who liked to marry off her mers sons like she was handing wedding candies to others, seeing that Yu Dong\'s life was getting better and better, she wanted to marry off her mer son to Yu Dong but Yu Dong who already had enough mer husbands to last for a lifetime refused.          

During one such fuss, she ended up scolding Shen Li saying that he was a hen that did not lay eggs and that Yu Dong should divorce him and marry a mer who had wide hips and a plump figure such that he will be able to give birth to a daughter if this was any other woman, she might have been moved by what Madam Chou said, after all, they have been married for years and Shen Li\'s womb was yet to make a noise.      

In this world where the birth of a son and daughter was highly celebrated, most women married a mer only for the sake of getting a daughter and if they were lucky a son who would grow up to be a true man. This was why many women would marry mers one after another not even caring about whether they could raise them or not.      

But Yu Dong was an exception. When she heard Madam Chou question Shen Li\'s ability to get pregnant and call him a hen that cannot lay eggs, the latter exploded like the tail of a cat which had been stepped on.      

Chen Mi still hasn\'t forgotten the scene of that day when he and his brothers had to pry Yu Dong off Madam Chou\'s body. Their wife was scratching and tugging Madam Chou\'s hair knowing that one punch from her could send the woman into a coma.      

It took a lot of hard work on their part before they could pry Yu Dong off Madam Chou but even so, the latter had screamed at Madam Chou that the day Shen Li got pregnant, she will hand out the most candies to Madam Chou until she was stuffed to her throat such that she will not say such nonsense anymore.      

Asking Yu Dong when she had been tossing Shen Li left and right every night to make sure that he got pregnant to stay silent and keep this matter from Madam Chou would be impossible.      

" Mi is right," Ye Liu also knew that these days Yu Dong was fuming inside, every day she met Madam Chou who boasted about the ability of her son to give birth to a child as soon as she got him married, Yu Dong looked like she was going to explode.      

She was unlike a woman who would listen to a woman disrespecting her husband and stay silent, even though she taught a good lesson to Madam Chou it was far from enough to calm her down.      

Shen Li also knew that Yu Dong might not listen to him which was why he needed to act rather carefully. Though this piece of news was indeed joyful, it was troublesome as well—— if his mother and sister found out then they can say goodbye to their peace, those two women would not take a breather nor will they let him or his family take a breather.      

What was more Fang Chi\'s due date was getting closer ——-     

" Argh," just as Shen Li was thinking about Fang Chi\'s due date the latter clasped his belly which was plunging down. Immediately, Shen Li looked at Fang Chi who was holding his stomach with a pale expression on his face and called out softly, " Chi…is this …is this a cramp?"      

Because of Fang Chi\'s miscarriage, the child in his belly had become restless, Doctor Gu had warned them that the child might arrive prematurely because even if the child was safely protected by Wu Junfen no one can deny the fact that Wu Junfen had taken out the twin\'s body which was poisoned out of Fang Chi causing a disruption in the natural process.      

These days Fang Chi suffered from a lot of cramps, sometimes he would scream that the baby was coming which caused them to run around while calling an older mer who was experienced in helping mers give birth.      

But each time it only turned out to be a false alarm.      

Fang Chi\'s forehead was covered in sweat but as the cramps eased, he heaved a sigh and smiled before saying, " It looks like it\'s a cramp."     

No sooner than the word was out of his mouth, something warm and liquid trickled down his legs causing a puddle to be formed.      

An imaginary crow flew past the mers who were standing in the living room before Shen Li jumped to his feet and started ordering everyone,      

" Mi, go and boil water!"      

" Liu, go and prepare clean clothes!"      

" Miss Lang, I will have to trouble you again. Please go and call my wife and doctor Gu back as soon as you can."      

Because of this premature arrival of the baby, everyone was thrown into chaos but because of Shen Li\'s calm orders, they all rushed to do their jobs. While Shen Li helped Fang Chi who now looked close to passing out, the latter was clutching Shen Li\'s hands as he whimpered in a joking manner, " Looks like the older brother is excited to meet his younger sister."
