Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heires

Chapter 1926 - Get The Marriage Certificate First!

After Grampy and Grandpa Du left, Wen Xinya felt tired and fell asleep on the bed. When she woke up, Si Yiyan walked over with a bowl of pregnancy stabilizing medicine.

A crisp and bitter herbal smell hung in the air. Strangely, not only did Wen Xinya not dislike it, she even secretly liked this smell.

"Take the pregnancy stabilizing medicine first. Old Mr. Du said that your stomach is bloated and you’ll feel better after taking it." After Xinya fell asleep, he got Gu Yuehan to go to Old Mr. Du’s medicinal hall to retrieve the pregnancy stabilizing medicine and personally brewed the medicine for her based on Old Mr. Du’s instructions.

Once the pregnancy stabilizing medicine was ready, she woke up.

"You brewed it yourself?" Wen Xinya saw that his sleeves were rolled up, smelling vaguely herbal, and felt indescribably touched.

Si Yiyan answered with an "mmm", stirred the medicine in the bowl, and blew at it from time to time. Wen Xinya sat on the hospital bed, stared at his actions intently, and gradually broke into a smile.

After about five minutes, Si Yiyan tasted the medicine—the temperature was just right. "Should I feed you or do you want to do it yourself?"

Wen Xinya took over the bowl of medicine and said, "I’ll do it myself. Traditional Chinese Medicine tastes more awful the longer you take to drink it—I’ll finish it in one gulp."

Saying that she leaned back and gulped the medicine like drinking water. The warm medicinal soup made Wen Xinya’s stomach warm and nice and relaxed her whole body—it had been some time since she felt as good as this moment. "This medicine is indeed effective."

She was also well-versed in medicine and was also more sensitive towards medicine compared to others. At this point, since she didn’t have any ill reactions towards Grandpa Du’s pregnancy stabilizing medicine, it had obviously worked.

This made her even more confident in the pregnancy stabilizing medicine. action

The extremely picky Xinya finished the entire bowl of black and bitter medicine in one gulp and didn’t even complain. Si Yiyan looked at her exquisite brows and fragile face with a delicate charm, sighed slightly, and asked, "Is it bitter?"

Wen Xinya stuck her tongue out and scrunched her nose. "Bitter!"

However, she was willing to drink it.

Si Yiyan fetched another bowl and said, "I’ve prepared your favorite sweet porridge which can help you get rid of the bitterness and fill you up—you can’t keep starving like this."

The refreshing sweet fragrance spread in the air, every grain of the rice and barley sweet porridge was split open, and the sticky glutinous rice, the aromatic barley, the sweet red bean paste, and the fragrant osmanthus honey instantly whetted Wen Xinya’s appetite.

"Si Yiyan, you’re so awesome!"

As Wen Xinya ate the sweet porridge happily, the bitter taste in her mouth finally went away. She couldn’t help but recall the first time Si Yiyan made sweet porridge for her.

Then, Si Yiyan had wiped out the Black Sunday and she was waiting for him at the entrance of the Jiayuan Club. In the end, she fell sick, and Si Yiyan tried time and again before he could make a good-tasting sweet porridge.

As Wen Xinya ate the sweet porridge, Si Yiyan was reading a medical book in his hands.

"You can understand it?"

She saw that she seemed to understand. However, medical knowledge was deep, difficult to understand, and incomprehensible for those who hadn’t learned it.

"The book says that one can take fish maw for backache, stomachache, and bloated abdomen. I’ll call and ask Old Mr. Du later if you can take some."

Si Yiyan naturally didn’t have medical knowledge—he merely learned some when treating his ailment previously. Now that Xinya wasn’t in the best shape, they couldn’t bother Old Mr. Du for everything either—there’d definitely be times when distant water couldn’t put out a fire on hand. As he was used to having control over everything and didn’t tolerate mistakes, he felt that he needed to have some Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge.

He really understood! Wen Xinya couldn’t help but laugh. "One can take fish maw for aching back, stomach, and limbs, female menstrual issues, and stabilizing pregnancies—don’t have to ask Old Mr. Du these."

Indeed, fish maw could help with blood deficiency—she actually forgot such an important thing.

Hearing that, Si Yiyan smiled and said, "We happen to have fish maw at home. Tomorrow, I’ll get Mrs. Tan to prepare some for you."

As they chatted, the door of the ward was pushed open once again. This time, Old Mr. Wen had rushed over.

"Xinya, are you feeling alright?"

Recently, Xinya’s health hadn’t been good indeed and she had lost quite a lot of weight. Unexpectedly, she was even pregnant. Thinking about how she was carrying a child, still had to deal with the Wen Corporation and Lanxin Company’s work, and was so busy all the time, he broke out in a cold sweat. Thankfully, this child was strong and they managed to keep it.

Wen Xinya nodded and said, "Just took some pregnancy stabilizing medicine and I’m feeling much better. Don’t worry, Grandpa."

Grampy and Grandpa were even more anxious about her pregnancy than herself.

Just now, when Grampy left, he had pulled Si Yiyan aside and spoke to him for a long time. Although she didn’t know what they talked about, she could more or less guess that Grampy must have said things to chide Si Yiyan.

Actually, Si Yiyan couldn’t be blamed for this accident during her pregnancy either.

Si Yiyan was a man who didn’t know much about pregnancies—this time, he was really wronged.

Old Mr. Wen’s hanging heart finally calmed down. "It was really too dangerous this time. Thankfully, you got to the hospital in time. If anything were to happen to you, won’t it be digging flesh from me, this old man’s heart? During this period of time, you just focus on nursing your pregnancy—this old man here is still there to deal with the Wen Corporation matters and nothing will go wrong."

He had already decided not to allow Xinya to dabble in the Wen Corporation’s matters before she gave birth.

This time, fortunately, the child was saved. If god forbid anything should happen to it, he would live his life in regret.

Wen Xinya nodded. "Okay!"

Now, nursing her pregnancy was her top priority—she didn’t intend to dabble in work issues anyway.

Since the Wen Corporation last took a hit, it was now already on the right track and she needn’t worry about it. With the defeats of the Li and Xiao corporations, the Korean-Chinese Alliance’s powers were greatly reduced and they were not much of a threat—Si Yiyan would handle it.

Following that, Old Mr. Wen’s gaze shifted towards Si Yiyan. "Xinya is already pregnant and we can’t hide this for much longer. You guys go get your marriage certificate in a few days’ time, then hold your wedding when the time is right—can’t just let Xinya suffer the reputation of premarital pregnancy."

Both premarital pregnancy and shotgun marriage weren’t pleasant to the ears.

Although there were many such cases in the current society, with Xinya’s reputation, it would more or less invite some gossip.

"I’ll make the necessary arrangements and won’t let Xinya suffer in any way." Si Yiyan had long considered this issue. Although it was quite a waste that they couldn’t hold their wedding as soon as possible, he was happy thinking about marrying Xinya sooner.

He and Xinya had already been engaged for many years and he had long wanted for them to get married. However, after the end of the acquisition war, the Wen Corporation had met with incessant troubles which made it impossible for them to wed.

Only then was Old Mr. Wen more satisfied. "Take good care of Xinya in the future. Xinya is pregnant and we can’t afford any slip-ups."

Si Yiyan nodded in agreement.
