Chapter 474: Chapter 474: The Child’s Mother Gets Married (1)_1

The siblings were sitting together, ready to enjoy a meal with high spirits, when they saw Pei Qin suddenly begin to vomit; they all looked over.

"Big sister! What’s wrong with you, vomiting all of a sudden? Is there something wrong with the fish?" Pei Yuan stood up and came over.

Pei Qian, Pei Wendong, and Chang Yonglin also looked over anxiously.

Pei Qin furrowed her brow in confusion, "I must have eaten something bad, yesterday’s leftovers..."

Yesterday, to celebrate Pei Yuan’s engagement to Zhao Xiaochen, they had hosted a lunch for the gift exchange ceremony, and the siblings had also made a few dishes in the evening that weren’t finished, so they reheated them this morning.

"We all ate the same thing, and we’re fine!" Pei Qian didn’t understand. Moreover, if it was food poisoning, one would expect diarrhea, not vomiting, and big sister hadn’t run off to the toilet, "Is it just vomiting?"

"I’m fine now," Pei Qin rinsed her mouth with cold water, and the churning feeling in her stomach subsided.

"If you’re still not feeling well, it’s better to see a doctor, don’t wait until it gets serious," Pei Yuan scooped some rice soup for her to drink first, "Drink rice soup to soothe the stomach."

Pei Qin complied, drank the rice soup, and ate less fish and rice.

The meal’s unexpected event didn’t faze the siblings much, as Pei Qin was usually healthy and rarely got sick.

After the meal, house cleanup was left to Pei Yuan and Pei Qian, while Pei Qin went back to the workshop.

Lu Hai silently followed behind her.

Feng Wei had already informed Mo Heng, "My lord! Should we call a doctor..." As the words left his mouth, he realized they were inappropriate. As an unmarried lady, if Pei Qin was found to be pregnant, her reputation would be entirely ruined, and in severe cases, she could be drowned in a pig cage. Although given Pei Qin’s fierce temperament, the probability of that happening was not high.

"No need!" Mo Heng couldn’t hide his excitement, just thinking of her carrying their child made him nearly jump for joy, in her style.

Feng Wei had never seen such unrestrained excitement in him, feeling somewhat complicated. When had his master ever been so forlorn? Yet now, for a child by an ordinary woman, he was visibly elated.

"My lord! Ms. Pei must be over a month pregnant by now, isn’t it... in a few more days, she may begin to show." Zhang Gengshan asked with a forced smile, seeing his happiness.

Mo Heng stepped outside, eager to see her, to hold her. But as he reached the main entrance, he stopped. He feared she might get angry, remain firm in rejecting marriage, and refuse him.

This state of anxious indecision had been with Mo Heng for a while now, and today it was more intense than ever.

Lu Hai wavered, too, wondering whether to tell Pei Qin directly about her unconfirmed pregnancy; once exposed, the siblings’ reputation would be destroyed. And Pei Yuan had just gotten engaged.

Pei Qin was beginning to suspect something herself. She hadn’t had a case of bad stomach, and her loss of appetite had started a few days prior; she even felt nauseous yesterday morning, but didn’t pay it much heed. Today, she couldn’t even keep down a piece of fish.

Turning to glance at Lu Hai, Pei Qin asked uncertainly, "Lu Hai! Do you remember when I had my period last month?"

Seeing her finally suspect something, Lu Hai said expressionlessly, "It’s been over ten days."

Pei Qin’s face instantly turned rigid, "I couldn’t possibly be pregnant, could I!?" Her period was ten days late, and now with this nausea and vomiting, could it really mean she was pregnant!?

Watching her face slowly turn to stone, Lu Hai said nothing for a while.

Pei Qin mechanically continued walking towards the workshop, completely dumbfounded. She hadn’t even considered marriage, yet she might already have a child!?

As she reached the entrance to the workshop, Pei Qin finally came to her senses, her face stiff as she clenched her fists and ground her teeth, "Didn’t I drink the Contraceptive Soup!? I had two bowls of it." It was he who needed to sleep, and when he woke up, he brought her a bowl of Contraceptive Soup and even made her uncomfortable for a while.
