Her hair was cloud-like and beautiful! She opened her eyes and found herself back in the third year

Chapter 271 Do you really want a child that much?

With the Sima family coming to fetch the bride, the marriage naturally proceeded smoothly.

Nothing unexpected happened after that.

Qin Yizhen sat in a specially arranged seat in the hall, received the newlyweds' greetings, and then took a pair of gold bracelets presented by Lü Qiao and gave them to the newlyweds.

"Some couples fall in love but quarrel after marriage and end up as a resentful pair. Others are complete strangers who, after marriage, live in harmony and happiness."

"How you start is not important, nor are some setbacks. What is important is that you walk hand in hand towards the future. Couples should be more tolerant and understanding. If there are any issues, you should talk them out properly and not keep them bottled up inside, only to complain that the other person is not considerate or understands you."

"Thank you for your guidance, Princess."

After exchanging greetings and bidding farewell, the bride was carried out of the gate by her brother and boarded the bridal car, leaving amidst a flurry of activity.

Min Siyue left smoothly, and the commotion at the Min family home subsided, so Qin Yizhen prepared to leave.

"Princess, please wait." Madam Min rushed over and presented another box.

Qin Yizhen recognized the box as the one Lady Changting had given her earlier that day; and yes, it contained a luminous pearl.

Qin Yizhen shook her head: "Madam Min, please take it back. I cannot accept this item."

Madam Min refused, saying, "I have troubled the princess for so long and made the trip in person. If the princess does not accept it, I will feel uneasy. Besides, with this gift today, the princess has already sent out three gifts for Siyue's wedding."

Yes, that's right. We've already sent three gifts. Yesterday, we added one to the dowry—a pair of jade ruyi scepters. Today, we sent another—a pair of jade bracelets. In addition, we sent one to the Sima family to congratulate them on their wedding. That makes three gifts in total.

To be honest, she really lost a lot of money.

However, she cannot accept gifts. If she does, countless people will try to give her gifts, so she must remain calm and composed.

Thinking of this, Qin Yizhen said, "Since you are uneasy, just live your life well in the future. If you live your life well, you will have done right by me, and you will not have to feel uneasy."

Madam Min nodded: "Princess, rest assured, Siyue will definitely live a good life."

After Qin Yizhen finished speaking, she felt that she had gone too far and added, "If you can get by, then get by. If you can't, then you don't have to endure it because of me. I am a princess, and naturally I hope that you all can get by."

"Thank you princess."

"Alright, no more gifts. I'm going back now."

"Then this humble woman will escort the princess out."

Madam Min personally saw Qin Yizhen off to the carriage. Even after the carriage had left, she stood there for a long time, looking at the box in her hand and sighing deeply.

As the carriage was heading back, Lü Qiao still felt a little regretful: "It really is a huge luminous pearl. If the princess really wants it, why not spend some money to buy it from the Min family? I don't think the Min family will refuse, so the princess doesn't need to feel uneasy."

Qin Yizhen was well aware of her status. If she accepted gifts, many more people would try to give her gifts in different ways. Therefore, no matter the reason, unless it was a major celebration in her family, she would not accept any gifts.

Qin Yizhen glanced at her.

Green Qiao covered her mouth, rolled her eyes, and said, "Why don't you give birth to a little master soon, Princess? When the little master is a month old, the Min family might send this luminous pearl as a congratulatory gift. At that time, it will be perfectly reasonable."

This is true.

Qin Yizhen did indeed have some interest in the luminous pearl, but she immediately shook her head. She had children for the sake of the children, not for the luminous pearl.

Moreover, the decision to have a child isn't solely hers to make.

Thinking of this, Qin Yizhen bit her lip, wondering how she could get Cheng Yan to agree to this.

...So that night, Qin Yizhen was unusually enthusiastic and proactive, which surprised and excited Cheng Yan.

The two fooled around until the middle of the night before washing up and going to bed. When Granny Jin blew out the lamp and left the room, she was already yawning.

Cheng Yan held her in his arms, reached out and stroked a strand of her hair, and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"

"You don't like it?"

"I like it." Cheng Yan answered immediately. At first, his wife was a little shy and he had to coax her a lot before she would agree. Later, she opened up a bit and they got along well. She would take the initiative, but she had never been this enthusiastic before.

How could he not like it?

Men generally prefer their wives to be dignified and virtuous or understanding when they are out of bed, but when they are in bed, they prefer her to be passionate and intimate, feeling as if they are on cloud nine.

But he felt there was something going on. Although she had been enthusiastic, she had also been somewhat shy. However, he didn't have the mind to think about it or ask her questions. Now he had to question her properly.

Qin Yizhen reached out and poked his chest with her finger, trying to negotiate with him: "Can you stop taking that medicine?"

medicine? What medicine?

He only took one medicine.

Cheng Yan paused, reached out and stroked her hair. Seeing that there was still some sweat on her temples, he leaned down and kissed her tenderly.

"Do you really want a child that badly?" he asked her.

Qin Yizhen hummed in agreement, reached out and hooked her hand around his collar, trying to soften his heart, "You're never around, I'm all alone, and I'm a princess, it's not good for me to run around outside every day, it would be so nice to have a child with me."

"Please just say yes, okay?"

After the last negotiation broke down, Qin Yizhen belatedly realized that some things cannot be reasoned with. She had to soften his heart and make him feel sorry for her so that he would back down.

Reason? You're right, but he's even more right!

snort!

If he still doesn't agree, then next time don't let him sleep in the bed; make him sleep in the study by himself!

Cheng Yan couldn't stand her coquettish manner, so he reached out and held her fingers, saying helplessly, "Behave yourself."

"Then you must say yes."

Cheng Yan hesitated: "But your health..."

“I’m much better now. If you don’t believe me, just ask Mr. Hu. He takes my pulse twice a month, so he knows best.”

"Please promise me, okay? Things are not stable in Xiliang right now. You know very well what the Empress Dowager is planning. If we really have to fight, then you will have to go on a western expedition."

"If there's a war, who knows how many years it will last? You're not at home with me, and you don't even leave the children for me. Aren't you afraid that I'll be lonely in my secluded chambers and start keeping a few gigolos like my elder sister?"

"Yizhen!" Cheng Yan said angrily, "You're not allowed to say such things."

He has always been selfish and domineering in this regard. He gets jealous of Xie Zhan several times over. If she really has someone else, he will be furious.

"Then will you promise me?"

Cheng Yan pondered for a long time, and finally sighed: "I'll ask Mr. Hu tomorrow, is that alright?"
