Chapter 639 Double Happiness (Last Part)
Seeing the doctor leaving his wife's jade wrist with his hand, and stroking his beard thoughtfully, Li Ling hurriedly stepped forward: "Doctor, Qingxiao is this..."
"Haha, I'm going to congratulate Lord Li. Judging from the pulse, Mrs. Zun has been pregnant for nearly three months..."
Just this sentence made Li Ling, who was still a little worried, suddenly undergo a major change of 180 degrees. He could hardly control his voice and said loudly: "Are you talking about Qingxiao... she already has me... our child?"
The doctor nodded again with a smile and congratulations, and then quickly instructed some things that pregnant women and their families should pay attention to, such as not to be tired, not to have too much emotional ups and downs, pay attention to food, etc.... But Li Ling couldn't listen to these things at all. Now he only had one thought in his mind, and he was about to become a father!
This is the first time he has become a father in two lives. This emotion is too subtle, both excited and a little nervous, which obviously makes him at a loss and the smile on his face is a little strange. It was not until Yang Qingxiao reacted and blushed to thank the doctor, he hurriedly said thanks, and then asked someone to get a ingot of fifty taels of silver and stuffed it into the doctor's hand: "Doctor, thank you, thank you..."
Seeing his incoherent expression, the doctor was a little surprised. As a gynecologist, he diagnosed a woman with pulse and had been pregnant for hundreds of times, but no husband could react so strongly, and the other party was an official of the court. However, he was still very happy to receive such a generous reward. He said a few more words of congratulations, and after agreeing, he was on call and prescribed a prescription for pregnancy as soon as possible, and then he was sent out by his servants.
As soon as the outsider left, Li Ling couldn't bear it. He quickly rushed to his wife a few steps, half-kneeled and looked at her waist carefully, laughing, full of joy: "Qingxiao...just look at your waist, I really didn't expect you... to be pregnant with our child."
Yang Qingxiao was also full of shame and joy. She never looked like a child in the world again. She just nodded and said softly: "Actually, I felt that my appetite was better than before during this period. I thought it was because I arrived in the capital, so I didn't take it seriously because I became thicker on my waist. I also thought about practicing more martial arts to make it lose weight."
"That's a must, the doctor said, you have to rest." Li Ling quickly stopped him and joked that his wife was pregnant, how could she let her practice martial arts again?
Yang Qingxiao naturally understood and nodded, then Li Ling leaned on her waist and touched her ear: "Let me hear, what are our children doing in your belly now..."
"Where can you hear it? The doctor said it's only two or three months old." Yang Qingxiao's face turned redder, but she didn't push her husband away. She felt so good that she was gently hugging her abdomen and his face.
Li Ling just smiled foolishly: "By the way, according to time, it should be that I let you get pregnant on the eve of the day before I left Jiangnan?"
"Well, it must be that time." Yang Qingxiao thought of the charming night, and her pretty face was even more red, but she was more sweet and joyful.
Speaking of which, since Li Ling and Yang Qingxiao got married, they didn’t want to have children to influence their lives at the beginning, so they were all prepared for couples. However, as time went on, they had nothing to do after two or three years of marriage. Li Ling was not doing well, but Yang Qingxiao was a little worried, so she proposed to have a child.
But this is not like buying things. It’s not like buying something. It doesn’t mean you don’t want it. It makes the couple quite troubled. Fortunately, their hard work pays off. They actually won the prize on the eve of their separation before, and then they didn’t realize until they reunited again that the sudden joy of gain was naturally even worse. The two hugged each other by the bed, saying some intimate words, but they didn’t want to separate for a while.
The couple was warm, and the door was pushed open by someone. Then Yue'er's scream came from the outside: "Brother, sister-in-law, is this true? Do you have a baby?" As she said that, the girl rushed in. When she saw the couple intimately, she then covered her eyes and said, "I...I didn't see anything..." and was about to withdraw.
Li Ling and the other two had already separated at this time, and they didn't feel funny when they saw this: "Yue'er is back, you are quite informative, are you here so quickly?"
"That's right, such a big deal." The girl pretended to behave, and then she came over with a smile, looking at her sister-in-law carefully, muttering, "You can't tell at all, how could my sister-in-law look like she is pregnant?"
"If you can see this, we'll have discovered it long ago." Li Ling patted her head angrily.
"Oh, don't pat my head. You said I'm not a little girl." Yue'er protested, but her face was full of smiles. She leaned over and touched Qingxiao's lower abdomen with her hand. She was careful, but she couldn't figure out anything. However, her happiness still remained unchanged. "Brother, now our Li family has someone to come."
"Yes, but I have to work hard to do the next one." After being happy, Li Ling was a little confused again. He was a completely novice and really didn't know what to do.
But there is one thing he is certain. He looked at his wife solemnly: "Qingxiao, since you are pregnant, don't follow me to leave Beijing this time."
This sentence made several people quickly pull out of joy. Yang Qingxiao frowned slightly, then nodded and responded: "I... I understand. Li Lang, then you must take good care of yourself when you are away from home in the future. If you really go to the north, you must ensure your safety."
"Of course, with you, Yue'er, and now with our children, how could I put myself in danger?" Li Ling immediately made a promise, "Next, you will be born at home and will raise nothing, and you don't have to think about anything. The most important thing is to make yourself and your children safe. Yue'er, I will be very busy in the capital next, so you have to worry more about your sister-in-law."
"Yeah, brother, don't worry, I will definitely help you protect your sister-in-law." Yue'er Zheng pointed his head, and looked as if I was at ease with you, which made the couple there laugh again, which made the little girl feel a little dissatisfied and bulged her mouth.
This time, the Li family was called a double happiness. Li Ling not only had a job vacancies again, but also was promoted to two levels, which naturally made the whole family feel honored. The mistress's pregnancy made the servants feel very happy, so the family then put on lights and celebrated their lives.
Li Ling naturally made a statement that each servant rewarded more than five taels of silver, which was worth the money of many slaves for several months. Naturally, they were grateful, and then served their mistress more carefully, and did not dare to slack off at all.
When these two news spread like wildfire and those friends who were close to Li Ling came to congratulate him one after another, he naturally had a good time and received him until three days later.
At this time, he had no worries and planned to officially go to the Transport Department's office to take office. However, before that, he went to the Ministry of Revenue first, hoping to find an assistant to go to the Transport Department with him.
After several years of becoming an official in the court, Li Ling has experienced many things, which made Li Ling very clear about some officialdoms, or the tricks in the workplace. For example, officials like him who suddenly landed in a certain yamen because of something are actually easily criticized and excluded regardless of their position.
Especially the Transportation Office Office, who had some rifts because of his original remarks before, and if he bumped into it, he would be even more inconsistent with others. At the moment, the situation is urgent, and he has no time to fight openly and secretly with them. Otherwise, when he surrenders his colleagues and subordinates, the war in the northern border will be ruined, and it will be over. So, Li Ling thought of bringing his own team over, so he simply handled many chores in the Transportation Office as an outsider.
But this idea is easy to determine, but the team is difficult to form, especially professional talents involved in accounting like this, which is even more difficult to collect. Fortunately, Li Ling had been an official in the Ministry of Revenue before, and had a good relationship with some people and knew his abilities, so he decided to borrow it first.
So he came to the door today and directly asked Shen Zhuohui, who had been the new Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for a few years, to borrow someone to help.
Although Li Ling and Shen Zhuohui's friendship is not too deep, it can be said, because in a sense, Li Ling has helped him a lot. If Li Ling hadn't fought Bian Xuedao, it would be hard to say who the Minister of Revenue today is.
So, Shangshu Shen was polite to him and specially invited someone to sit in his public room, drinking tea and talking about things. After just a brief greeting, Li Ling explained his intentions. Shen Zhuohui seemed to have been expected and said with a smile: "It's not difficult to borrow people, but I don't know who you want to borrow?"
"One is Xiang Daxing. He knows the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue for more than ten years, so I can be targeted when calling money and grain from various places. The other is Lu You, who has been a good financial manager for many years, knows all kinds of methods. With his help from the side, I should be able to save a lot of thought. And..." Li Ling angrily reported the names of more than ten officials, and the others were used by him and knew their talents and character.
After listening to him with a smile, Shen Zhuohui sighed: "Wen Zhong, you really have the vision to pick people. He immediately took all my officials from the Ministry of Revenue."
"It is precisely because they are officials, the officials said, "You are the ones who want you. But I believe that under Lord Shen, the Ministry of Revenue will definitely have more talents than before. These are just a little familiar to me, and I should not delay the Ministry of Revenue's responsibilities."
"Haha, you can speak. Since you said that, and you are working on the court, I will agree. However, I have to remind you that you may make you unhappy when you do this, and you feel that this is distrust of them."
