After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

When my second child was five months old, the fetal movements were already quite noticeable.

One night, Lin Nian mysteriously pulled the man's hand and placed it on her stomach.

Yin Cheng thought his wife was unwell, but he didn't expect to feel a faint throbbing under his palm.

"Ahhhhh?" Yin Cheng was dumbfounded. "Wife, did he... did he move?"

Lin Nian chuckled, "Idiot."

Yin Cheng felt fetal movement for the first time and found it incredibly amazing.

He gently rubbed the small bump on his wife's belly, "Honey, did it hurt when he kicked you?"

Lin Nian shook her head. "The baby is very well-behaved."

Although that's what he said, only Lin Nian himself knew that the further along the pregnancy progressed, the more tormented he became.

My legs are especially swollen, and my lower back is so sore that I can't straighten up.

Yin Cheng felt sorry for his wife and massaged her every night.

If it weren't for the fact that pregnant women need to move around more to facilitate childbirth, he would have loved to rush to the Ministry of Works and get a wheelchair.

On the day Lin Nian launched his attack, Yin Cheng was summoned back from the palace by his secret guards.

The onset was originally scheduled for April, but for some reason it happened half a month earlier than expected.

He frantically grabbed the pearls and jumped around, shouting, "What should I do? What should I do? Why is Nian Nian crying so hard? Where's the imperial physician? Has he come yet? I really can't go in! Can I cover my eyes?"

Jingyi was slightly speechless. "Your Highness, please put the princess down first."

Pearl's eyes were dazzled by her father's shaking.

Yin Cheng quickly released Zhenzhu's grip. "Are you alright, sweetie?"

Pearl shook her head, and hearing her father's pained voice from inside the room, she whispered, "Father, was Pearl like this before?"

"What?" Yin Cheng suddenly realized that Pearl was thinking of him. He rubbed Pearl's head and said, "After the little brother is born, shall we go ask Little Daddy?"

"Mmm." Pearl nodded, her little hands clutching her father's clothes. "I'm so worried about Daddy and my little brother."

Yin Cheng kissed Xiao Yuanyuan's cheek. "How about we sneak in?"

Pearl's eyes lit up.

Jingyi coughed desperately to the side. He's about to be a father of two, and he's still so unreliable.

"Your Highness, please calm down!"

Yin Cheng immediately felt resentful: "...Not even allowed to be present during childbirth?"

"It's bad luck for the young master to go into the delivery room, Your Highness. Don't worry, the imperial physician and the midwife are inside. Nothing will happen." Jingyi sighed and said, "Please don't go and cause trouble."

Yin Cheng and Xiao Yuanyuan both looked weak, pitiful, and helpless.

Half an hour later, a loud cry came from the delivery room.

Yin Cheng immediately rushed to the door. "Can I come in now?"

As soon as Jingyi nodded, she saw the prince supporting Pearl's belly with one hand, and carrying his child sideways like a jar with the head facing forward as he rushed inside.

Jingyi: "..." Your Highness, our little princess is a very handsome young man!

Whose little boy is being held like this by his father!

After cleaning the bloodstains off the baby, Wen Gong wrapped him in swaddling clothes and brought him to Yin Cheng. "Congratulations, Your Highness, it's a little gentleman."

He looked up, already wondering how much reward Prince Cheng would give, but there was no one there.

Yin Cheng rushed to his wife's bedside, placed the pearl next to her, and held her hand, which was trembling.

Lin Nian's face was pale, as if she had been pulled out of the water, and she was covered in sweat.

His voice unconsciously softened as he said, "Niannian."

Lin Nian weakly opened her eyes, and a smile appeared on her lips when she saw the man. "Husband...where's the baby?"

Yin Cheng's mind was completely blank; all he could think about was whether his wife was in pain, and he had no idea about the baby.

At this moment, Wen Gong quickly took the child over and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness, it's a young gentleman."

Lin Nian pulled her hand away from the man's large grasp. "Hold the baby!"

Yin Cheng then carefully took the swaddling clothes, his expression immediately becoming very complicated.

Jingyi, who was standing to the side, thought that her master was so happy that he was dumbfounded. So she invited Wen Gong and the imperial physician out and presented them with the reward money that had been prepared in advance.

This reward is completely different from a payment; how much is given depends entirely on the host's wishes.

The midwife's hands trembled slightly as he held the five hundred taels of silver. He had been a midwife for decades and had delivered at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, children in his life, but he had never seen anyone give such a large sum of money as a reward.

His smile became more genuine, and he quickly said a lot more nice things.

The imperial physician stroked his beard and briefly explained Lin Nian's condition to Jingyi, "Although the due date was half a month earlier than expected, there's nothing to worry about. The Prince is just tired and needs to rest, and the child is in good health, so there's no need to worry."

"Thank you very much, Physician Zhou." Jingyi presented the physician's reward money. "You've gone to so much trouble. Please accept this small token of my appreciation."

The imperial physician boarded the sedan chair to return to the Imperial Hospital, and left with a cheerful expression.

Xiao Jiu'er, accompanied by several servants, began writing invitations and making arrangements for the full moon banquet in advance.

Such a joyous occasion must be announced to the whole world.

In the delivery room, Yin Cheng hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Pearl tugged at her father's clothes, "Daddy, I want to see my little brother too!"

Yin Cheng squatted down so that Zhenzhu could also see her younger brother's face clearly.

Pearl voiced what Yin Cheng wanted to say: "Why is your little brother all red?"

"He looks like a monkey," Yin Cheng said. "What an ugly child."

That can't be right. He's handsome, his wife is handsome, Pearl is handsome, so why did the second son have a genetic mutation?

Lin Nian glared at him angrily, "Newborn babies are all like this."

Yin Cheng felt guilty. "Oh, oh, really? Haha."

After a while, Yin Cheng said, "What an abstract child, hahaha."

Lin Nian: "..."

Pearl climbed onto the bed. "Daddy, does your tummy still hurt?"

Lin Nian gently patted Pearl's head. "It doesn't hurt anymore."

"I can take care of Daddy now!" Pearl said confidently, "and I'll take care of my little brother too."

Lin Nian smiled and said, "Silly boy."

Suddenly, the second child burst into tears again.

"Wife, wife, wife!" Yin Cheng said, "What should I do if he cries? What should I do?"

"Don't panic," Lin Nian said. "Bring it over here so I can take a look."

"Oh." Yin Cheng helped Lin Nian sit up against the headboard, and carefully stuffed several pillows into his bed so he wouldn't be uncomfortable.

"Wife, shouldn't you lie down and rest now?" Yin Cheng didn't understand the men of this era. He was always worried that Lin Nian hadn't rested well and might develop health problems later.

Lin Nian said, "It's okay, I'll be able to get out of bed in a couple of days."

He lifted his undergarments.

Yin Cheng: "?"

Yin Cheng: "!"

Lin Nian was holding his second child with affection when he suddenly felt a very obvious gaze fall on him from the side of the bed.

Lin Nian raised her head and tilted it slightly.

Yin Cheng took a deep breath, slowly leaned against the bed and sat down on the floor. "My worldview is a bit shattered. I need to calm down first."

"It's just feeding children..." Lin Nian said, "Didn't anyone feed children in your time?"

"It's not that...it's hard to explain," Yin Cheng said. "Let's find him a wet nurse. That brat, eating so well."

Lin Nian: "..." Sometimes her husband acts like he's sick.
