Third sister is pregnant father practices martial arts

  Lin Ziqian took his sister to Li Xiangyuan where Chen Lanzhi lived and saw a young girl wearing a stone-green robe with a crossed collar, walking out of the house. This person was Chen Lanzhi's personal maid Qinglan.

  "Qing Lan sister, Second Sister-in-law, are you up?"

  Qing Lan made a curtsy, "The servant has seen the master and young lady! The second mistress is already up." She said as she lifted the curtain, bowing respectfully in invitation.

  Lin Ziqian nodded, while Lin Qingyu let go of her brother's hand and rushed inside with her short legs, running straight into Chen Lanxi's arms and rubbing against her.

  Upon seeing this, Lin Ziqian's face turned black. After greeting Chen Lanxi, he turned to Lin Qingyu and scolded: "What about your manners? It seems necessary to inform Father to give you additional lessons on etiquette!"

  "Ah——" Lin Qingyu's face fell, she pouted and came out of Erniang's arms, bowed and said respectfully: "Daughter greets Erniang!"

  Chen Lanqi hastily hugged Lin Qingyu and said: "Second wife's treasure Qing'er, get up quickly!"

  Lin Qingyu got up and ran back into Erniang's arms, looking at Lin Ziqian with a timid expression, saying in a low voice: "Can we skip the etiquette lesson now? Brother?"

  "This, huh..." Lin Ziqian pretended to think, seeing his sister's round eyes wide with expectation, her face full of anticipation. He couldn't help but laugh inwardly. His expression didn't change at all, and he nodded seriously: "How come you always have a bad memory! It's not me as your brother saying this, what if Madam finds out, she'll have another reason to punish you. What will you do then?"

  Lin Ziqian strives to do everything perfectly and beautifully, not giving anyone a handle to grab onto, and not holding back Erniang and his sister. At the age of six, he already understands the difference between birth order and family status. He firmly believes that even if he can't get much property from the mansion, he can still achieve something on his own.

  However, his younger sister Qianer is a concubine's daughter, and there are many restrictions on her. Matters such as marriage are basically controlled by the madam. All he can do now is keep an eye on his sister and not let her give the madam any excuse to criticize her.

  "Uh-huh! Thanks for caring, brother! Jing'er knows that brother is the best!" Lin Jingyu's soft and sweet voice melted into people's hearts, making those who heard it dote on her infinitely.

  Chen Lanqi saw the interaction between her brother and sister, her eyes turned red, and the emotions in her heart gathered little by little, feeling warm and cozy.

  She was originally the concubine of the old master, and she had a more or less unwilling heart. If her parents hadn't left at an untimely time, she could have been the legitimate wife too. But since the birth of this pair of siblings, all her unwillingness disappeared, and she only felt that as long as they were healthy and happy, she was already content and happy.

  "Brother Qian, you're looking quite well today, much better!"

  As soon as Lin Ziqian entered, she noticed that there was a slight change on her children's bodies, and she knew it all like the back of her hand, which showed how attentive she was. Moreover, Qing'er's skin looked more radiant than usual, like the finest sheep fat white jade.

  "Yes! The child is much better!"

  Lin Ziqian sorted out his thoughts and told Chen Lanqi the cause and effect of the matter. He didn't dare to hide such things, what if Erniang was also affected?

  "So that's it! So that's it..." Chen Lanxi muttered to herself, no wonder after the old lady left, Jian Geer's body wasn't too good. Originally thought it was Jian Geer who missed the old lady so much, thinking of her with sadness and got a cold, and also fell ill for three years of mourning for the old lady!

  All along, she knew that Jia Min was not as virtuous as she seemed on the surface, and her methods were not very clean either. But she didn't think she would be so ruthless, and even with all her precautions, Jian Ge had been deceived for so long without realizing it. How detestable! A pair of phoenix eyes suddenly turned crimson, with a hint of bloodshot lines.

  She came to the Lin family on her own, and she strictly adhered to the rules of a concubine. She was extremely respectful and never competed with others for favor or attention. She usually stayed in the garden and didn't take half a step out unless necessary. Having humbled herself to this extent, what else could she do...

  She closed her eyes and forced back tears. She didn't want to cry in front of the children, showing a weak side.

  She's not that she doesn't understand the intrigue, nor is it that she has no means, but rather that she deigns not to contend or struggle. All along, all she wanted was to be content with a quiet life.

  Since you, Jia Min, are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous. For the sake of my children, I, Chen Lan Zhi, will fight with you to the end. The Lin family can only have one of us. I will take away everything that matters to you, only then can I vent this hatred.

  "Second daughter!"

  Lin Ziqian saw that Chen Lanxi's fingernails were all pinched off, and the blood dripped from her fingers to the ground, drop by drop, blooming into beautiful flowers. His heart was tightened as he hastily called out.

  "I'm fine!" Chen Lan heard the words, saw a pair of children looking at her with concern, and withdrew her mind, secretly thinking without mentioning it. "Qing'er, aren't you hungry? Mother asked Qinglan to prepare breakfast."

  "Hmm! Hmm!" Lin Qingyu patted her slightly concave belly, feeling a bit wronged. "Second Aunt, tell Qinglan to hurry up and prepare food, Qing'er's stomach is growling with hunger!"

  "Good!" Chen Lanqi hugged her own precious daughter and instructed Qinglan outside the door: "Qinglan, go take a look if breakfast is ready. If it's done, hurry up and bring it over."

  "Yes! Second Mistress!" Qing Lan respectfully took her leave and went on her way.

  Qing Lan's movements were quick, and before long, breakfast was served. The ancients emphasized that one should not speak while eating or sleeping, so the three of them quickly finished their breakfast.

  Chen Lanqi took a short break and drank some tea to detoxify, while the brother and sister began to study their martial arts.

  Alright! To be strict, it was Lin Ziqian who explained to his own precious little sister word by word and sentence by sentence. Fortunately, Lin Ziqian had read more books in his daily life and understood them clearly, so he could explain them clearly now. After Lin Qingyu understood, she memorized the Nine Yin Manual herself.

  About two hours later, Chen Lanxi walked in, wearing a soft green dress, with delicate features and a calm demeanor. The sunlight from outside spilled in, making her look like an immortal descending from the heavens, stunningly beautiful.

  Chen Lan Zhi was originally pretty, a beautiful woman, otherwise how could she have given birth to the warm and elegant Lin Zi Qian and the lovely and delicate Lin Qing Yu siblings. At this time, one row of poison, it is even more magnifying her beauty countless times.

  "Wow! Where did this fairy sister come from?!" Lin Qingyu held her chubby head in both hands, staring with infatuated eyes. "If Father saw this, he'd be drooling all over the place!"

  Lin Ziqian coughed and although it was hard to say anything, he was extremely in favor of it in his heart.

  "Wow! You little rascal!!" Chen Lanqi swept over her daughter, making a gesture of spanking Lin Qingyu's butt several times, "See how I'll deal with you, let you laugh!"

  "I'm not afraid!" Lin Qingyu puffed out her small chest. "I know Second Aunt wouldn't dare to hit me!"

  Chen Lanqi was taken aback by his words, which were actually true. She had a soft spot for her daughter's spoiled and delicate appearance, and couldn't bear to discipline her.

  The three of them spent a warm day together, and after going through the poisoning incident, their feelings actually warmed up a lot. Lin Qingyu also blended in very well, which was an unexpected delight.

  Actually, Chen Lanqi had already discovered that her period hadn't come and was mentally prepared. Fortunately, Jia Min's pregnancy was unstable, so she was busy with prenatal care and didn't have to go pay respects every day, allowing her to rest properly for a while.

  It seems necessary to tell the old master, and at the same time, vent his anger on Jia Min. If once is not enough, then several times, sooner or later, she will be angry and won't think of poisoning and other things. After all, paper can't wrap fire, she doesn't want to be caught by someone one day and abandoned herself, it's okay if she's alone, but if she implicates her children, she will hate herself to death.

  "Master, isn't it time to invite a teacher to instruct her?" Chen Lanxi said while helping Lin Ruhai get dressed in the morning. "Otherwise, she'll be bursting with energy all day and need some restraint."

  "Alright! Recently having some free time, I'll personally enlighten her!" Lin Ruhai was very fond of his own precious daughter, and no matter how he looked at her, he thought she was lovely! Just thinking about his precious daughter looking at others with a respectful gaze made him feel uncomfortable.

  It's great to have one's own daughter, and even better to personally enlighten her. Just thinking about my daughter looking up to me with admiration makes my heart feel warm and fuzzy, and a hint of that feeling shows on my face.

  Chen Lanqi saw it and knew what he was thinking, secretly laughing non-stop. Indeed, her daughter's charm is boundless! So she pretended to be surprised and said: "Really? Master, you're too kind, Lanqi is so grateful!"

  As soon as she finished speaking, she fainted. Lin Ruhai quickly turned around and supported her with one hand, then carefully put her on the bed.

  "Green mist, hurry and invite the doctor!"

  Lin Ruhai's face was urgent, and he loudly ordered the green smoke that came in with the water.

  "Yes!" Qingyan took orders and put down the water, then ran out in a puff of smoke.

  It took a long time for Chen Lanxi to pretend to wake up slowly, looking at Lin Ruhai sitting on the edge of the bed, curiously asking: "Master, what's wrong with Xi Lan?"

  Her face was filled with confusion, her innocent eyes showing a hint of anxiety and urgency, while her jade-like hands were tightly grasping the hem of Lin Ruhai's robe, looking as if she had just fainted.

  It has to be said that women are born actresses.

  Lin Ruhai covered up the worry in her eyes, helped Chen Lanzhi tuck in her quilt, and asked with a concerned expression and soft voice: "Lanzhi, have you felt anything uncomfortable lately?"

  "No!"

  Chen Lanzi shook her head, with an innocent face and a hint of grievance in her voice, "I had three big bowls of rice yesterday! (It was because my children were happy, okay!) As you can see, I'm very healthy."

  "What's so good about it?!"

  Lin Ruhai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said with concern: "You've all fainted, how can you say it's fine? You're also not feeling well, don't you know to call a doctor in time?" (Alright! She had already assumed that Chen Lanqi was ill!)

  Chen Lanqi looked at Lin Ruhai with gratitude, a warm smile, Lin Ruhai only felt a "poof" sound, heard the sound of flowers blooming, and stared blankly for an instant.

  Last night, he found his concubine's skin to be unbelievably smooth, beautiful like the finest silk under the lamp light, with a great hand feel. Today, she looks like an immortal fairy, making him want to hide her away and secretly admire her alone.

  "Master, Second Mistress, the doctor has arrived." Qingyan and Qinglan entered, interrupting Chen Lanxi's words.

  Qing Lan put down the bed curtain, Lin Ruhai gently pulled out Chen Lanqi's hand, and Qing Lan had placed a thin cloth on top of it before instructing: "Quickly invite the doctor to come in!"

  The old doctor (actually only in his forties, but already considered an elder in ancient times, don't be envious!) held Chen Lan's left hand, and after a while, he stroked his beard and said to Lin Rushan: "Congratulations, Master Lin! Your esteemed wife has a joyful pulse! She is already one month pregnant!"

  Lin Ruhai was overjoyed upon hearing the news. The Lin family had a single heir for five generations and their bloodline wasn't flourishing. Previously, his wife was pregnant with a child, and now his concubine also has a child. In a few months, the Lin Manor will have two more children, how could he not be excited?

  "Really!" Chen Lanqi covered her mouth with her right hand, pointing to her belly and said: "So it was you this mischievous little thing, coming to report to Erniang!"

  The old doctor stroked his beard and nodded, "Absolutely true, grandma's physical foundation is very good. As long as she takes good care of herself and pays attention to her diet, she will have a smooth delivery!"

  Chen Lanqi nodded in agreement, and Qing Luan sent the old doctor out. After Qing Yan lifted the bed curtain, Lin Ruhai sat down and stared at Chen Lanqi with some resentment: "What's wrong with you? You're already... and you don't even know?"

  Chen Lanqi didn't respond, it's better if she just knew her own business and didn't say anything.

  It's not easy to say, but I'll tell Lin Hai that I've been pregnant for a long time, just didn't want to say it out loud, afraid of an "accident" or "carelessness". Now the reason I'm saying this is just to annoy your wife! If I really said that, Lin Hai would definitely be furious. After all, in his eyes, his wives are harmonious.

  Then, with a pitiful look on her face, she stared at Lin Ruhai, almost crying, looking pitiful no matter how you looked at her.

  "Ah..." Lin Ruhai looked at Chen Lanxi's pitiful appearance and couldn't bear to say anything blaming, so she covered her with the quilt and said: "Next time, be more careful, okay?"

  Chen Lan nodded obediently and said, "Okay, rest well, I have something to do, so I'll go to the study first!" After finishing speaking, she went out.

  Main Room

  Jia Min found out that Chen Lanqi was pregnant again, and she slammed the cup in her hand in anger. She thought to herself: "This woman really can't stand me being happy, she's coming to add trouble!" Rubbing her slightly bulging belly, she muttered to herself: "You must be a boy, you must be a boy..."

  Chen Lanqi and Jia Min each took care of their own pregnancies.

  Jia Min took advantage of her status as the lady of the house and would occasionally send some ginseng, angelica, and other nourishing items.

  Chen Lanqi certainly knew that these things were good, Jia Min wouldn't be so stupid as to hand over the handle. The whole thing was a plot, because the things were too good, if someone who didn't know better took them, they might end up dying in childbirth due to excessive fetal growth.

  She remembered all these things and would return them one by one when she had the chance. She never thought of telling Lin Ruhai, after all, no one would believe her if she told them, these things hadn't been tampered with, they were just supplements, how could they harm people?

  Lin Ziqian and Lin Qingyu's martial arts skills have also made progress, originally young in age, plus the help of the spring water, progress is not slow.

  Lin Ziqian took the opportunity to hand over all the secret recipes to Lin Ruhai. Except for the matter of the spring water, he told him everything without leaving out a single detail. This wasn't considered lying, at most it was just not telling the whole truth.

  Lin Ruhai found out and specially asked Lin Qingyu if it had any impact on her. After confirming that it didn't, he unceremoniously accepted it.

  Lin Qinyin would occasionally find opportunities to add some diluted spring water to Lin Ruhai's tea, causing Lin Ruhai to have diarrhea every other day. Lin Ruhai thought he had eaten something bad for his stomach! The siblings on the side couldn't help but secretly laugh about it.

  After Lin Ruhai drank the spring water, his martial arts skills were no longer comparable to those of the two young ones, but compared to others in the martial arts world, he was no longer slow. He thought he had exceptional talent and looked so good that even walking brought a breeze. With his spirit and energy renewed, he suddenly looked much younger (of course, the effect of the spring water was enormous!), appearing to be only 23 or 24 years old. His friends from the same dynasty who were officials with him stared blankly, envying him to no end.

  Lin Ruhai was originally a handsome uncle, but now he suddenly looks almost ten years younger, and many young ladies from Yangzhou are infatuated with him. There are also many who want to marry Lin Ruhai.
