Chapter 588 - 234 eccentric
Time flew by, and before long, it was already the latter half of September.
On September 25th, Zhuang Ruolan gave birth to her second daughter, and they used the name Yueyao had chosen, Yanqi.
On September 26th, Madam Tang gave birth to the first legitimate grandson of the Li Mansion. Ma Chengteng was overjoyed upon hearing the news and personally named the child Congpei.
Ma Chengteng felt it would be troublesome to hold separate cleansing ceremonies for the two children, so he wanted to combine them. Of course, it was Yanqi who would have to accommodate Congpei.
When Zhuang Ruolan heard this news, her expression turned sour, but Ma Peng spoke up with a smile, "Don’t worry, I’ll talk to father about this matter later."
After Ma Peng spoke with Ma Chengteng, he dropped the idea. However, the incident left Zhuang Ruolan feeling quite uncomfortable.
Cai Yun and Cai Yi both knew that a woman in confinement could not be agitated, or she might suffer lingering consequences. Therefore, they said only pleasant things, "Young lady, Eldest Young Master still cares deeply for you." No matter what, the Father-in-law came second; the husband was the priority.
Zhuang Ruolan thought about it and realized it was true. Her husband didn’t love Yanqi any less just because she was a girl, nor was he dissatisfied with Zhuang Ruolan for having two daughters. He was as affectionate as always. Zhuang Ruolan once again felt fortunate to have chosen Ma Peng.
The washing ceremonies for the two children were done almost back-to-back. Zhuang Ruolan let the matter go, concentrating on recovery. If she didn’t recuperate well during confinement, it could affect her for life.
Whenever Yueyao finished with household affairs and had some time, she would go and chat with Zhuang Ruolan and then spend time playing with Keyue.
