Chapter 1320: Final Chapter Ending Three_3

Liu Qingqing looked at Mo Yan with tension. Although she was quite sure that she was pregnant, the lack of a definitive answer left her anxious about the small portion of uncertainty that remained.

After a moment, Mo Yan retracted her hand, and facing Liu Qingqing’s expectant look, she didn’t know how to start.

Seeing this, Liu Qingqing’s heart sank, and the smile on her face gradually faded, with the last glimmer of hope flickering in her eyes, "Yan, Yan Sister..."

Mo Yan slowly shook her head, shattering her last illusion, "Your worry is too heavy, always thinking about getting pregnant. Under the psychological effect, you began showing symptoms of pregnancy."

This is the so-called phenomenon of a false pregnancy.

Liu Qingqing felt as if struck by lightning, extending a hand to touch her lower abdomen, her previously radiant eyes instantly dimming.

Mo Yan couldn’t bear to see this, and patted Liu Qingqing’s hand to comfort her, "I’ve already told you before, you need at least six months of conditioning. It’s been four or five months now, and your menstrual cycle has become regular, which means your condition is improving. It won’t be long before you can conceive, so don’t put too much pressure on yourself, as it will only do you harm.

Liu Qingqing silently nodded, a bitter smile appearing on her face, "I should trust your medical skills, but I’m really scared it won’t get better. Mother and the Duke don’t say it, but I know they are worried. The nicer and more considerate they are to me, the worse I feel inside, always wanting to get pregnant quickly to ease their minds as well as my own."

Mo Yan sighed inwardly, understanding Liu Qingqing’s predicament. For someone like her, just finding someone willing to marry her was not easy. To encounter a good husband like Brother Tie Tou and a good mother-in-law like Aunt Wu was like searching in vain with a lantern; it was no wonder she was anxious—probably fearing that inability to bear a child would mean losing this hard-won happiness!

Some things, not having experienced them, one can envy without longing for, but once one has tasted such goodness, letting go feels like having a piece of the heart removed—how can anyone bear that?

"These things cannot be rushed. I’ll say it again, your health is improving, and getting pregnant is just a matter of time. However, your current anxiety is harmful. If you really want to conceive soon, you should listen to me. Don’t dwell on these thoughts; what you need to do is to take care of your health," Mo Yan said.

Liu Qingqing nodded absent-mindedly, seemingly not taking in what was said.

Seeing this, Mo Yan felt somewhat helpless. Such a smart and perceptive person, yet she also had her moments of confusion—if this continued, even if her health improved, she might have trouble conceiving. Everything that needed to be said had been said; it was up to her to come to an understanding.

Liu Qingqing left absent-mindedly, and Mo Yan felt worried, asking Er Mei to accompany her home.

As time had passed, Mo Yan tidied up her desk and left the consultation room. At the doorway, she encountered Xin Er, who seemed to have something to say but hesitated.

"What’s the matter?" Mo Yan took her sister’s hand and walked into the house, asking with a smile, "Is there anything you can’t tell your sister?"

Xin Er looked down silently for a moment, then suddenly looked up and said, "I was just outside, and I heard it."

Mo Yan was startled, but then realized what her sister meant by "heard it." Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard, she cautioned in a low voice, "If you heard it, pretend you didn’t. Don’t talk about it."

Xin Er nodded gloomily, as if burdened by a heavy heart.

Seeing this, Mo Yan asked with puzzlement, "What is it, girl, are you hiding something from your sister?"

Xin Er, caught in a struggle, glanced at her sister and could not hold back the question she wanted to ask, "Sister, you can cure Sister-in-Law Tie Tou’s infertility, but would you treat our mother?"

Mo Yan had not anticipated that Xin Er would ask such a question. She stopped in her tracks and looked at Xin Er, unsure what motivated her to ask.

The fact that Cui Qingrou was infertile was no secret in the Mo Family; even the villagers knew she had been married before without having children, and they roughly guessed the reason for her divorce. At the time, with people seeing Cui Qingrou’s substantial dowry, there were those who said spitefully that the Mo Family had struck it rich, gaining a high-status daughter-in-law along with a considerable wealth.

The Mo Family had never coveted Cui Qingrou’s dowry. However, since Cui Qingrou had no children of her own, her rich dowry did indeed benefit the Mo Family. Faced with such gossip, they couldn’t be bothered to argue.

Now that Xin Er suddenly brought up this question, it caught Mo Yan off guard. She couldn’t help but wonder: If she had a way to help her mother conceive, would she take action?
