Chapter 529 The amniotic water broke
The launch took place two days later.

At first, Yu Tingwan was being pulled along by Wei Zhao. Half of her body was leaning on Wei Zhao, but it wasn't too strenuous for her.

"Yang Weiwen got married. He had no relatives, but He Xuran valued him and took him with him when he was transferred to the Six Ministries."

With He Xuran gone, his position was given to Ning Yunling. Yang Weiwen's position was taken over by the second son of the Lu family.

Yu Tingwan said gently, "His status has risen considerably, and there are probably many guests who want to celebrate with him. I must go and attend the ceremony."

Wei Zhao: "Okay."

"But I have health problems."

Wei Zhao helped her up the steps: "With me here, what could possibly happen?"

Yu Tingwan thought so too.

"Can……"

I don't know what happened.

She always had a bad feeling.

That feeling was very strong.

It was so strong that she felt the baby's movements becoming more pronounced.

It still seems to hurt a little.

Yu Tingwan carefully felt it, and the pain seemed to be just an illusion.

She didn't take it seriously.

He quickly remembered something else.

"They usually send letters from Zexian every two months, but this time we haven't received them yet."

Since Ying Fuyan ascended the throne last year, Yu Tingwan has intended to bring Hui Niang and the others to the capital, and even wanted to bring the old scholar over to live out his retirement.

Hui Niang and Wei Shouzhong had never traveled far before and were worried about being unfamiliar with the place, but they were concerned about Yu Tingwan.

But once they arrive, their personalities would make them feel awkward and uncomfortable if they stayed at the Wei family's house for a long time, and they might even cause trouble for Yu Tingwan. They would also have to part with their uncle and aunt, which they would find hard to bear.

Then there was the old master, who lived next door in the Zhao family's house, and the Zhao master regarded him as his mentor.

The old master is getting on in years. If he comes here, unless Master Zhao goes to the capital to visit him, he may never have the chance to see him again in this lifetime.

Zexian County and Shangjing are too far apart.

Yu Tingwan was well aware of these things and had made preparations long ago. She simply brought them all over and found a courtyard in the alley of Shangjing.

Master Zhao was initially unwilling; how could he possibly take advantage of the situation?

He was then scolded and enlightened by the old master.

"The court is in dire need of people and needs to rebuild everything. After the special imperial examination, an order was issued to hold another examination next year as an exception. Isn't the new emperor's intention clear? He clearly wants to bring in new talent and eliminate the old, dismissing mediocre officials and promoting outstanding ones."

"I'm too old to take exams anymore. What about you? Are you content to spend your whole life as a schoolteacher in this small county of Zexian?"

"Ze County is remote and isolated, making it difficult to cultivate new knowledge or reconnect with old acquaintances. Haven't you also been delayed? That traitor clearly intended to give you a helping hand."

"When we go there, we'll be like family to her, and she'll be happy to see us."

The layout of the alley was similar to that of Zexian County, and they remained neighbors after arriving. It was quiet all around, convenient for studying, and the main street was right outside the alley, making transportation convenient.

Yu Tingwan could often go over to take care of Hui Niang and the others, and could also bring them to stay at the Wei family's house for a while.

At that time, Wei's cousin Zhao Yu was preparing for an exam, and his wife was heavily pregnant.

Yes.

Zhao Yu was still outmaneuvered by Liu Yan, who lived in the same alley and was attracted to his looks.

Last time, Xin Hui's mother also told Yu Tingwan that Liu Yan had given birth to a baby boy.

Hui Niang and Wei Shouzhong were both honest people who had never traveled far from home. After discussing it with their uncle and aunt, the Zhao family, they decided to stay in Ze County for the time being and wait for Zhao Yu to finish his imperial examination before discussing anything else.

Zhao Yu did well in that county examination, passing as a student and achieving a pretty good ranking.

But Liu Yan was getting pregnant, and it wasn't appropriate for her to travel such a long distance.

This has been delayed again and again, and it's dragged on until now.

Wei Zhao: "On the way to the capital."

Yu Tingwan looked up in surprise: "You're here? Why didn't my husband tell me?"

Wei Zhao smiled.

"I wanted to bring it up the other day, but you were too busy sleeping and complained that I was too noisy, so you punched me. Do you remember?"

"There is."

Wei Zhao: "Is there anything you'd like to say?"

Since becoming pregnant, the girl has become much more spoiled.

Yu Tingwan thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "You deserve it?"

Wei Zhao chuckled.

Yu Tingwan suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong."

Yu Tingwan: "Something's not right."

Wei Zhao asked seriously, "Is something wrong?" Yu Tingwan felt it again and told him.

"I must be... hungry."

There was a pavilion ahead, and Wei Zhao helped her over to rest, instructing Tan Jiang to go to the kitchen to get some food.

Since Yu Tingwan became pregnant, the kitchen has always kept snacks on hand.

Therefore, Tan Jiang acted very quickly.

The food box I was carrying contained a plate of jujube paste cake and a serving of bird's nest and snow frog soup.

Yu Tingwan picked up a piece of pastry and ate it earnestly.

She only ate half a piece before putting it down again.

This feeling...

Yu Tingwan looked up.

"But it's not to your liking?"

Instead of answering, Yu Tingwan asked, "Have you chosen a name for your little one yet?"

Wei Zhao had been flipping through ancient books and poems for several months, but he still couldn't find the most appropriate and satisfactory words.

"Not yet."

Yu Tingwan urged, "Then hurry up."

She was very dissatisfied.

"You're usually so efficient in everything you do, why did it take you so long to come up with a name?"

It wasn't like this when you shot into the hole.

She would urge him every few days, but Wei Zhao didn't find it unusual.

"Let me think about it again."

"Then you might not make it in time."

Yu Tingwan told her.

"My water broke."

Wei Zhao was always calm and composed; even when swords and blades were aimed at him, he didn't even flinch.

But at this moment, as he looked down at the water stains on Yu Tingwan's skirt, he suddenly froze, as if even his breath had stopped for a moment.

His fingertips trembled almost imperceptibly, yet remained as steady as a rock when they touched her sleeve.

Wei Zhao stood up.

His arrangements were exceptionally calm and composed.

"Someone, have the midwife and female doctor stand by in the delivery room. They must soak their hands in herbal water before entering and leaving. Burn Atractylodes lancea and Artemisia argyi in the room. Prepare hot water, scissors, and white cloth... The water must be boiling, and the white cloth must be completely steamed. Prepare several buckets of water, and have someone guard the well so they can draw fresh water as needed."

"Yes."

"Tell the people below to quickly decoct the medicine that Elder Ge gave us earlier."

"Yes."

Wei Zhao hurriedly walked out while giving instructions, his steps very quick.

"Send the message to Mother, and also inform the Grand Tutor's residence."

Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?

She was stunned, watching Wei Zhao's retreating figure.

No, you're just going to leave your wife and kids here and not care about them?

"Quickly take that ginseng from the warehouse and have them make longan and red date soup in the kitchen."

Ginseng replenishes qi and invigorates the spirit, while longan and red dates warm the body, revitalize blood, and replenish physical strength.

Yu Tingwan: ...

Look back!
What else do you want to order?

Yu Tingwan couldn't help but twitch her shoulders. She leaned on the stone table and laughed.

But she hadn't been laughing for long when she felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen.

"hiss."

She had just gasped for breath when the man turned back, his eyes deep and dark, stirring up a gust of wind.

Wei Zhao picked her up steadily and strode out. He was still heading back towards the delivery room.

Even in his condition, he still tried to comfort her.

"take it easy."

Yu Tingwan wanted to laugh again.

She reached out and touched Wei Zhao's taut jawline.

"Husband"

"Ok?"

Yu Tingwan: "Were you... going to give birth by yourself?"
