Thinking of this, he felt a chill in his heart. How could he bear to continue listening? He hurriedly opened the door and asked, "Ge Bi, what's wrong?"
Ge Bi was sitting on a chair in the room. Wanyan Ping was holding a bowl of soup and trying to persuade her to drink it. When they heard someone barge in, they were shocked. When they saw the appearance of the person, they couldn't believe it and were stunned.
"Ge Bi, what's wrong with you?" Song QingShu strode over, grabbed her hand, and began to feel her pulse. Unfortunately, he was only strong in martial arts, so he could determine internal injuries based on the pulse, but he could not determine an illness based on the pulse.
Ge Bi's face turned red when he grabbed her hand. She looked at him reproachfully and hurriedly said to her sister, "Hurry up and close the door. Don't let anyone see us."
Wanyan Ping didn't act immediately. Instead, she smiled and said, "Sister, after such a long time, the people who serve us are all our confidants. Even if you really have a gigolo, no one will say a word. Moreover, it's brother-in-law who's back. Why do you have to be so guilty?"
Ge Bi glared at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who's your brother-in-law?"
"Of course it's him." Wanyan Ping smiled and held Song Qingshu's arm, pushing him in front of her sister.
Ge Bi's face turned red and she turned her face away. She didn't deny it. Previously, she had asked Song QingShu to pretend to be Tang Kuo every time so that she could get over it. However, both of them knew that it was just an excuse to comfort each other. Since their relationship had reached this point, there was no need to lie to herself every time.
Song Qingshu didn't have time to enjoy the feeling of a young girl on his arm. He asked again, "I just heard Ping 'er say that you're sick. What's going on?" He was also a little confused. He thought that Ge Bi had some incurable disease, but seeing the two girls talking and laughing, it didn't seem like it.
"You're the one who's sick, idiot." Ge Bi spat and turned to the side with a red face. No matter how he asked, she didn't want to say anything.
"Brother-in-law, why didn't I think you were so stupid before?" Wanyan Ping couldn't help but laugh.
"Huh?" Song Qingshu's mind was filled with question marks.
Looking at his dumb expression, Wanyan Ping giggled, "Silly brother-in-law, don't you notice that jiejie has changed?"
"Change?" Upon hearing this, Song Qingshu looked Ge Bi up and down. Her hair was still black and her features were picturesque. His gaze moved downwards. Hmm, her breasts seemed a little bigger, and her waist … seemed a little thicker.
However, the man's strong desire to survive did not make him tell the truth. He used a euphemistic way of saying, "A little bit. It seems like you've become more plump."
"What plump? That's because my belly is big." Wanyan Ping said hatefully.
"Uh, it's not a bad thing to eat a little more. You'll lose weight soon …" Song Qingshu's heart suddenly lit up when he said this. He looked at Ge Bi in surprise, "You're pregnant?"
Ge Bi's cheeks were red, but she didn't reply. She only snorted and called him a fool.
Wanyan Ping was more direct, "Brother-in-law, you're going to be a father."
"Be a father …" Song Qingshu suddenly understood. This world finally gave him a sense of belonging.
"Do you like a son or a daughter?" Ge Bi finally opened her mouth and looked at him expectantly.
Song Qingshu smiled, "Of course I like a daughter. A daughter is the cutest."
Ge Bi's heart warmed. She thought that he was doing this so that she wouldn't feel pressured. After all, this society needed boys to carry on the family line. Everyone would definitely prefer boys. However, she didn't know how much the men in the future would love their daughters.
Suddenly thinking of something, she bit her lip and said, "There's one thing I have to say again …" She touched her bulging belly, "This child, no matter if it's a boy or a girl, will be surnamed Tang Kuo …" This was also the biggest reason she convinced herself to maintain this relationship with Song Qingshu. It was also an explanation to her beloved husband.
Song Qingshu felt a wave of bitterness in his heart. It was clearly his own child, but he couldn't acknowledge it. This feeling was really complicated. However, he had personally promised her this condition. He couldn't break the promise. Moreover, this matter represented Ge Bi's loyalty and persistence. If he broke his promise, her faith would collapse, and she most likely wouldn't be able to live.
"Of course I know, but I will still love him like my own child." Song Qingshu moved closer to her belly and quietly listened to the movement inside. "Hey, I think he kicked me."
"It's not that exaggerated …" Ge Bi blushed. It's only been a few months. How can he kick someone already? Seeing the tender love and faint loneliness on her lover's face, she suddenly felt sorry for him. "Actually … actually you don't need to be sad. You can still let Ping 'er give you a child."
Wanyan Ping jumped up like a startled rabbit. "I'm not as good as my sister. I've been with brother-in-law for so long, and only my sister is pregnant."
Seeing her sister's slightly pouting lips, Ge Bi couldn't help but smile. "You're still young. There will be many opportunities in the future."
Wanyan Ping pouted. "You're only a few years older than me." Suddenly, she rolled her eyes and smiled as she held her arm. "Actually, you only need to have a son to continue the Tang Kuo family line. You can also give brother Song a few more. Doesn't he like girls? Let's have eight or ten daughters. Yes, and one or two sons."
Ge Bi snorted. "Eight or ten? Do you think I'm a pig?"
Hearing this, Song Qingshu was delighted. He pulled her into his arms. "That's a good idea. The first son will be adopted by the Tang Kuo family. The rest will belong to me."
"How can I do that? How can I have so many …" Ge Bi was so embarrassed that her earlobes turned red. However, she was a little moved.
"As long as I work hard, they will eventually bear fruit." Song Qingshu chuckled.
Ge Bi finally couldn't take it anymore. "You're getting more and more ridiculous …"
Wanyan Ping also couldn't help but complain. "The previous brother-in-law wasn't as bad as you."
Ge Bi was instantly displeased. "What previous brother-in-law, current brother-in-law? It sounds so bad."
Wanyan Ping stuck out her tongue. Knowing that he had touched on her sore spot, Song Qingshu took the opportunity to change the topic. "Just now, were you worried that if your belly gets bigger, you won't be able to show up as Tang Kuo?"
"Yes." A hint of worry flashed in Ge Bi's eyes. "I'm planning to let Ping 'er take over."
"But I'm also in charge of the laundry yard." Wanyan Ping couldn't help but say. "It's okay to do it once or twice, but it's not practical for me to do it in the long run."
Song Qingshu said, "You're worrying too much. When the time comes, you can just say that Tang Kuo is unwell and needs to rest for a while. Occasionally, you can see some of the higher-ups through the curtains. Anyway, the Jin Kingdom is almost under our control now. The other political enemies have also been wiped out. We still have the Loyal Army in our hands. No one will object."
Ge Bi let out a sigh of relief. "You're right. It seems that we can't see clearly."
Song Qingshu smiled. "As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Let me accompany you today."
"It's still early …" Ge Bi felt that she blushed more today than she had in the past few months combined.
