The Hidden Beauty

Chapter 120 Do you want to have a daughter?

The maid led Jiang Shiwan out, only to find Meng Tingzhou standing at the gate of the yard with his hands behind his back waiting for her.

Seeing her come out, Meng Tingzhou walked towards her.

"Are you waiting for me?"

"if not?"

Jiang Shiwan said bitterly: "I thought you would be very busy when you first arrived here."

"It's true that I'm busy, but you seem busy too." Meng Tingzhou thought she would be tidying up the room, but he didn't expect the servant to say that she was going to see Lu Jin first.

"Lu Jin has given birth to a child, so I came to visit." Jiang Shiwan looked around and realized that the houses in the north were very different from those in the capital. Everything was white, with colorful paintings. The roofs were semicircular domes, and the gold on the top sparkled in the sunlight.

"Like it?"

"It's really unique." Jiang Shiwan sighed, "If I hadn't left the capital, I would probably never have the chance to see such a precious building."

"As long as you like it."

Meng Tingzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

When he was secretly planning the construction of the Northern Governor's Office, he really put a lot of thought into it.

Because he didn't know whether he would stay here for the rest of his life, he wanted to do his best to build a unique mansion for her.

On the way back, Meng Tingzhou suddenly asked: "Meimei, do you want to have a daughter?"

Jiang Shiwan was startled and looked at him suspiciously: "Why do you say that?"

Seeing him looking at her with burning passion, she understood: "Did you hear me talking to Lu Jin?"

Meng Tingzhou did not comment.

Jiang Shiwan didn't know what he was thinking, but he had some unfinished business.

Then I explained, "Ayou is in the stage of being naughty right now, and I saw that Yue'er is very cute, so I thought a girl might be easier to take care of. Don't think too much."

Unexpectedly, Meng Tingzhou said seriously, "It's not too much to think about having a child. I know it was not easy when you were pregnant with Ah You, but if you want to have a daughter, I can ask Dr. Mei if there is any way."

If something unexpected really happens in the future, it might be much better if she has her son and daughter by her side.

Jiang Shiwan's eyes were somewhat evasive: "Your injuries haven't fully healed yet, let's talk about these things later."

At least it's not the time yet.

The two of them seemed to be back to square one.

But Meng Tingzhou was no longer angry.

Now that he is in the North, he has plenty of time to slowly understand her.

As the sun sets, he gently holds Jiang Shiwan's hand and says, "Okay, there's no rush. I want to see the customs and practices of the North with you. Although the North is not as prosperous as the capital, it does have its own unique charm."

As they spent more time together, Jiang Shiwan felt that his originally calm heart seemed to be slowly sinking.

She leaned her head on Meng Tingzhou's shoulder, and seemed to be a little addicted to the days with him by her side.

These small behaviors also made Meng Tingzhou feel strange.

He liked her looking at him, liked her taking care of him, and liked her being close to him.

Every time this happened, he would feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.

When the two returned to the courtyard, Meng Tingzhou couldn't help but hug her and wanted to get close to her and kiss her, but was startled by a cough.

He looked up and saw Dr. Mei holding a medicine box and looking at them awkwardly, a little annoyed: "Why are you here?"

Doctor Mei stroked his beard and said with an awkward smile, "My wife asked me to come."

Seeing Meng Tingzhou's puzzled look, Jiang Shiwan walked in and said, "I specially asked Doctor Mei to come and take a look at your injuries. You have just arrived in the northern border, so you should take good care of your injuries." Meng Tingzhou and Doctor Mei looked at each other secretly.

Doctor Mei spread his hands helplessly.

Jiang Shiwan watched Doctor Mei feel his pulse and said, "If there's anything you need to pay attention to, tell me and I'll remember it."

Doctor Mei felt the pulse with his fingers, feeling bitter in his heart. After meeting Meng Tingzhou's meaningful eyes, he forced a smile and said, "The governor's injury should be treated with rest, less work, and a cheerful mind. It will heal slowly."

"I will prescribe some more medicine, and you can have the governor take it every day."

Jiang Shiwan nodded: "Now that you say that, I feel much more relieved."

She looked at Meng Tingzhou lying on the bed, her eyes full of pity.

If I am gone one day, let me take good care of you while I am here.

After Doctor Mei left, Meng Tingzhou looked at her and said, "Now that Doctor Mei said so, you feel relieved, right?"

Seeing him trying to get up, Jiang Shiwan held his shoulders and said, "I know you have a lot to do as a governor, but your injury is the most important. From now on, you should lie down in bed and rest."

Meng Tingzhou looked at her in disbelief: "If I don't leave the house, people will think I'm addicted to sex."

Jiang Shiwan rolled his eyes at her and said, "If you have anything to say, you can ask Pei Qing to give the order for you."

Her unquestionable tone made Meng Tingzhou laugh and cry. He pulled her hand and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"What about eating and taking medicine? Will you feed me mouthful by mouthful?"

He said it as a joke, but he didn't expect Jiang Shiwan to agree: "Okay, I or my maid will feed you."

Meng Tingzhou suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, the Turkic king will come to visit me in five days. Can I get up to meet him?"

"Turkic king?"

Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant, Meng Tingzhou nodded and said, "Yes, it is the second prince who was captured alive by me before. Now he is the new Turkic king, and Yan Jinxi is the Turkic princess."

Jiang Shiwan looked at him and said, "From your tone, it seems that you have a good relationship with the Turkic king?"

“All relationships are based on mutual benefit.”

Jiang Shiwan stood up and said, "Then you should lie down for seven days, and then get up again when the Turkic king comes."

Just as he finished speaking, Ah You, who was covered in mud, was carried in by Yu Feng and others: "The young master liked the fish and turtles in the pond very much, and jumped in at once, and then..."

Ah You waved his muddy hands: "Dad... Liang... Yu Yu... likes it..."

Jiang Shiwan sighed helplessly: "It's not like I've accomplished nothing. I finally learned how to say I like this new word."

Ah You took the opportunity to kiss Jiang Shiwan on the face. Seeing the mud on her face, Meng Tingzhou became even more disgusted with his son: "Yu Feng, quickly take him down and wash him clean before letting him in."

"Cool... cool..."

Ayou, who was taken away, was still struggling.

Meng Tingzhou's face turned pale and he looked at Jiang Shiwan: "Come here."

"what happened?"

He half sat up, took the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the mud off her face: "This little thing dared to kiss you and got it dirty. I will teach him a lesson someday. Is this something he can do casually?"

Jiang Shiwan just found it funny: "He is your son."

"He's my son, so he should know when to act and when to retreat!"

Meng Tingzhou wanted to say something but was interrupted by the visitor.

"Greetings, Governor. The old lady wants Jiang to come over."
