After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband-Chapter 764 - 762 Induce Labor

The Hidden Guard felt a bit guilty thinking about Su Jin’s amnesia.

If it weren’t for him secretly intervening that day, the Heir’s wife wouldn’t have tripped over the threshold and lost her memory.

But he really didn’t know the Heir’s wife had the strange habit of stopping whenever she saw a difficult case.

He always had his doubts about it, though.

After all, Young Master Xie’s face was quite striking.

He never dared to confess this to the Heir’s wife, fearing Xingxing might beat him to death.

The Hidden Guard quietly sat on the carriage shaft, driving the carriage towards the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion.

After entering Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, he headed straight for Marquis Dongxiang’s study.

He saw Marquis Dongxiang walking out at the courtyard gate.

Seeing Su Jin’s somewhat messy bun and slightly bruised forehead, he asked, "What happened?"

"I’m fine, Father. Just that on the way back, the carriage suddenly went wild and crashed into the one with the Commandery Princess Chengxian and County Princess YiAn," Su Jin replied.

"..."

Marquis Dongxiang’s brows furrowed again and again.

He glanced at Xie Jingchen.

Xie Jingchen remained expressionless.

Su Jin looked at Marquis Dongxiang and asked, "Was there something you needed from me, Father?"

"Not anymore," Marquis Dongxiang said.

"..."

"Really nothing?" Su Jin was somewhat skeptical.

To have the Prince convey a message for her to return to the mansion, and it’s nothing?

Marquis Dongxiang laughed, "Would Father deceive you?"

Su Jin thought perhaps nothing was wrong.

The only thing she could help her father with was her medical skills.

If her assistance was needed, it would certainly be a matter of life and death.

If it were urgent, he wouldn’t have waited until today to call her.

So Su Jin went to the inner courtyard assured, but Xie Jingchen was left by Marquis Dongxiang.

Honestly, Xie Jingchen felt a bit uneasy.

Reviewing memorials gave him a psychological shadow.

Whenever Marquis Dongxiang left him to speak alone, Xie Jingchen worried that Marquis was digging another pit for him, instinctively resisting.

But this time, Marquis Dongxiang reminded him, "Make sure to ensure Jinjim’s safety."

"Don’t worry, Father-in-law, whoever crosses my wife will be the unlucky one," Xie Jingchen said.

"..."

Marquis Dongxiang had nothing to say.

If it weren’t for his daughter’s good fortune, he wouldn’t dare let her be at risk.

Only by rooting out these people can lasting peace be ensured.

But still, one must not let down their guard.

He wasn’t afraid of someone poisoning Su Jin, they couldn’t outplay her.

But using brute force, Su Jin wouldn’t have the power to fight back.

Marquis Dongxiang only gave a few reminders, and Xie Jingchen bowed and took his leave.

After walking over a hundred steps, Su Jin emerged from behind a rockery.

Xie Jingchen looked at her, "What are you doing here?"

"Why did Father look for me but ended up talking to you?" Su Jin furrowed her brows.

"What did my father say to you?"

"..."

"Father-in-law just scolded me for not taking care of you, letting the carriage crash," Xie Jingchen said. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"..."

"Is that all?" Su Jin was a bit doubtful.

"What else do you expect Father-in-law to scold me for?" Xie Jingchen’s eyes carried a hint of dangerous light.

Su Jin’s mouth twitched.

Why does it seem that in his words, her father only ever scolds him?

But it seems her father indeed never asked Xie Jingchen to do anything good.

And it’s not just one father.

Su Jin almost felt sorry for him.

Su Jin went into the inner courtyard to chat with Mrs. Tang, not wanting Xie Jingchen to accompany her, telling him to take a stroll at the training ground.

Xie Jingchen pinched Su Jin’s nose and said, "Is it to take a stroll or to go in for a few punches?"

Su Jin, "...."

"Don’t judge a man’s heart with a petty mind, alright?" Su Jin bared her teeth and said.

Xingxing stood aside.

She wouldn’t say that her thoughts and her husband’s were the same.

How can one take a leisurely stroll to the training ground? It’s just getting beaten up.

Otherwise, why would Young Master Su hide on the ladder to watch?

However, Xie Jingchen still went to the training ground, trading punches was better than sitting in the pavilion getting windblown, watching Su Jin and them admire flowers.

Especially this time, Marquis Dongxiang specifically sent a message to the training ground not to beat up Xie Jingchen.

The servant who delivered the message was just in time; a moment later, Xie Jingchen would have been on the competition platform.

Chu Shun touched the slight bruise on the corner of his mouth and looked at Xie Jingchen, "Why is Marquis Dongxiang being so good to you?"

Xie Jingchen, "...."

It’s not being good to him.

It’s to prevent him from getting injured in training, in case someone at that moment causes trouble for Su Jin affecting his protection of her.

Only for his most cherished daughter would Marquis Dongxiang send a private message.

Such hurtful words, Xie Jingchen wouldn’t utter.

He sat down and drank tea, thoroughly enjoying it.

But for Su Chong and Chu Shun, this scene was an eyesore.

They found him disagreeable.

Inside the house.

Mrs. Tang was making tiger head shoes, feeling more and more satisfied as she looked.

When Su Jin walked in, Mrs. Tang smiled and said, "Come quickly and take a look at the tiger head shoes your mother made."

Looking at the shoes, Su Jin said, "Mother’s craftsmanship is impeccable as always."

Not just tiger head shoes; Mrs. Tang also made bibs, little hats, little skirts...

Seeing this, Su Jin asked, "Why are you making all little girls’ skirts?"

Mrs. Tang laughed and said, "I’ve arranged with your aunt. She makes for boys, and I make for girls, regardless of whether your sister-in-law gives birth to a boy or a girl, they’ll be sufficient."

"Even if not now, they’ll be useful in the future."

Mrs. Tang had leisure, and so did the Duchess of Chong.

After all, being a widow, the Duchess of Chong rarely leaves the mansion easily.

However, that was before; now with sons and daughters-in-law, soon to have grandchildren too, accompanied by Princess Fu Yun, the Duchess of Chong even took a tour around the Beauty Pavilion.

Su Jin couldn’t help but feel a bit envious of Princess Fu Yun.

When Su Jin expressed her envy, it hit the target with Mrs. Tang.

She said, "Instead of envying, why don’t you get pregnant sooner? Mother won’t treat the grandchild unfairly."

Mrs. Tang’s gaze swept over Su Jin’s flat abdomen, wishing she were already pregnant.

Su Jin, "...."

Really just wanted to hit herself.

Why did she have to express envy?

Looking for a reminder to have kids.

With an awkward smile, Su Jin said, "Mother, how can having children happen just because you want it to? It’s all about destiny...."

But before Mrs. Tang could speak, Xingxing exposed her, "Miss, you’re lying."

"Didn’t the Lady of the Ministry of Justice conceive soon after listening to you?"

"And the Junior Minister of the Ministry of Justice’s mother conceived even quicker."

This kind of talk might deceive others, but not them.

Su Jin, "...."

Sometimes she really wanted to toss this maid out the window.

Whose side was she on anyway?

How could she be so ambiguous in her loyalties?

Mrs. Tang looked at Su Jin with eyes full of inquiry, and Su Jin was scared, silently raising her hand to cover her forehead.

Tears streaming down her face.

The stage set by Xingxing was in shambles, and she didn’t know how to fix it.

Being able to guide others to conceive promptly, there was no reason it wouldn’t work on herself.

With no other option, Su Jin could only say, "Mother, please don’t rush me."

"I will, I promise I will."

"That’s more like it," Mrs. Tang smiled.

Outside the window, Young Master Su and his two companions sat leaning against the window, resting and eavesdropping.

They had just run here from the training ground, sweating profusely, panting heavily.

Listening to the conversation coming from inside, Young Master Su propped his chin and said, "I wonder if sister-in-law will have a boy or a girl."

"I suppose everyone hopes for a boy?" Young Master Shen said.

"But having a boy isn’t good," said Young Master Su.

"Having a boy is good; the ladies in the palace all wish for boys," said the Ninth Prince.

"That’s not the case in our family; we prefer girls," said Young Master Su.

"With elder sister married off, we don’t have a girl to dote on at home anymore. I hope sister-in-law first has a girl."

"But what if it’s a boy?" Young Master Shen said.

"Then he’ll be unlucky; not only can father and elder brother bully him, but so can I."

Ninth Prince, "..."

Young Master Shen, "..."
