After being jilted, the entire neighboring village was filled with deep regret.

Chapter 175 Ke Yunyun Gives Birth

Su Yu's gaze was deep, and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips. "Naturally, it's because of Young Master Zhu's first wife, Cui. After marrying Young Master Zhu, Cui gave birth to a son who was weak and sickly. Because of the difficult childbirth, she was unable to have any more children."

Over the years, only two of Zhu's concubines have given birth to daughters. If Yunyun were to have a son this time, how much would he value her in Zhu's heart?

Su Tai understood.

Seeing that she understood, Su Yu smiled and said, "I plan to have Su Sheng send some things to the city and ask about the situation. If all else fails, we can invite a doctor from the town to stay and oversee things, so we can have peace of mind."

Su Tai nodded, "Okay! I'll prepare some ingredients and food for my brother-in-law to take over later. Madam Li in town is a good person; she keeps her mouth shut and is trustworthy."

I know Shen Yi; I can have him go over there and ask Doctor Li to come along.

Su Yu stood up and bowed deeply to Su Tai, "Thank you, cousin!"

That same day, Shen Yi led Su Sheng to the town's clinic to find Doctor Li.

The clinic's business was lukewarm, and Doctor Li was quite idle. Upon hearing Shen Yi's request, he agreed without asking any further questions.

Su Tai also secretly made a trip to the Time-Space Gate transfer station, took out the cotton cloth stored at home, and bought a thousand virtual currency bread and cakes to have Shen Yi deliver to Su Sheng's house.

That evening, Su Tai and her family rushed back to Shenjiazhuang.

Su Sheng also prepared the oxcart and returned to his room early. The next day, before dawn, he set off to Moshi Town to pick up Doctor Li, and then they set off together.

By the time the two of them arrived at the villa in Yong'an Lane, it was already dark.

Dr. Li had no idea where he was.

All they knew was that Su Sheng knocked on the door, and soon the two of them were invited inside.

Su Chunsen held up the lantern and helped Su Sheng unload the things, asking, "Why did you come at this time? What did you bring that smells so good!"

The aroma was simply strange; even someone who doesn't usually indulge in good food couldn't help but drool.

Su Sheng lifted the contents of the wicker basket and said, "These are snacks that Little Moss prepared for you. They're delicious. There's also some ingredients for my cousin. She must be about to give birth!"

Su Chunsen nodded, his gaze falling on Doctor Li. "And who is this?"

Su Sheng quickly explained.

Upon hearing that the doctor was from the town, Su Chunsen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly led Doctor Li to find Ke Yunyun.

When Dr. Li was taking her pulse, Xiao Xi didn't dare to breathe loudly.

Only after Doctor Li released her hand did she anxiously ask, "Doctor, how is my master?"

Dr. Li stroked his beard and chuckled, "There's nothing wrong. The baby's position is normal. Just move around more these next few days, and it should be soon."

These words brought a sigh of relief to everyone in the room.

Su Sheng came with the task assigned to him by Su Yu. He could only go back after Ke Yunyun gave birth, so he stayed there.

Dr. Li would take Ke Yunyun's pulse every day to check on her condition.

Zhu Yixuan didn't come over once during this time, and Su Sheng couldn't help but worry, "Is Young Master Zhu not coming at all?"

Su Chunsen glanced at the room and pulled Su Sheng outside to talk. "I heard that the eldest young mistress of the Zhu family is pregnant. The eldest young master of the Zhu family is very happy and has been spending every day with her these days. We haven't dared to let Yunyun know about this, so don't say anything more."

Su Sheng's face paled, and he was filled with worry. "Father-in-law, will this matter affect you?" Su Chunsen exhaled a breath of turbid air, a hint of confusion in his eyes. "I don't know either. Fortunately, Achuan has an heir. Even if he doesn't end up well in the future, I'll accept it. I'm not afraid!"

He smiled at Su Sheng with a relieved expression.

Su Sheng's heart sank to the bottom; he was nowhere near as positive as Su Chunsen.

Two days later, Ke Yunyun finally went into labor.

The midwife was someone Wan had inquired about beforehand and invited from outside the city.

With the help of the midwife and Dr. Li, Ke Yunyun's delivery went relatively smoothly. She only endured the pain for one night, and the baby was born just before dawn.

The midwife examined it carefully and exclaimed with delight, "Congratulations, madam, it's a beautiful son!"

She carefully washed the child with warm water.

Xiao Xi quickly laid out the swaddling clothes, and only after the midwife had properly wrapped the baby did she carefully carry him to Ke Yunyun's side.

Ke Yunyun was somewhat weak, but her spirits were good; she was even able to talk to the midwife, asking, "How am I feeling?"

"Good! Very good! I've delivered many babies in my life, and at least eight out of ten women develop some health problems after giving birth. It's rare to have such a smooth delivery like you, Madam. You are truly blessed." The midwife's words were firm and resolute, clearly a heartfelt praise.

Ke Yunyun smiled slightly and said to Xiao Xi, "Give two taels of silver to the midwife, invite her to the side room for a bite to eat, and then have my cousin take her back."

"Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam!" The midwife walked out of the delivery room with a big smile on her face.

Xiao Xi went out for a while and quickly returned, her face full of joy. "Master, should we inform the young master that you have given birth to a son for him? He will definitely be happy."

Mentioning Zhu Yixuan, Ke Yunyun's joy faded slightly. "No need. My identity cannot be exposed. If we go there, it would be bad if word got out. I want to enjoy a few more years of peace and quiet."

Xiao Xi froze, her eyes widening in disbelief. "Master, you gave birth to a son! I heard the young master only has one legitimate son, and he's sickly. Our young master looks perfectly healthy, so you..."

Ke Yunyun interrupted Xiao Xi's persuasion, "Go get me something to eat, and don't mention anything else, I don't want to hear it."

Xiao Xi was disappointed, but knowing Ke Yunyun's temper, she didn't say anything more.

After Xiao Xi left, Madam Wan went inside to see the child. She held the child affectionately for a while before asking, "Should we inform the young master?"

Ke Yunyun shook her head calmly, "He must have his reasons for not coming. Aunt, I know my place, I can't argue with him."

Seeing her like this, Madam Wan suddenly felt extremely distressed. "Fine! If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. Anyway, the child is his, and he has to take care of you and the child. The young master left me a thousand taels before, so that I could take good care of your health."

"We've spent thirty-five taels during this period, leaving us with over nine hundred taels. The child doesn't cost much each month, and the tonics and supplements we buy for you won't exceed ten taels at most, enough for us to last for several years. The young master can't possibly ignore you and your child for years."

Ke Yunyun nodded with a smile, "Three years. If he doesn't come in three years, I'll leave with the child and won't cause him any trouble."

After about three years, her health had improved significantly, and with the money she had saved, raising her child was not a problem. Her only worry was her uncle's family.

When Madam Wan saw her frown, she knew what she was thinking, and comforted her instead, "Our matter is not in a hurry. For your sake and the child's sake, the young master will treat us well."

This is true.

Having figured things out, Ke Yunyun's expression relaxed a bit.
