Chapter 730: Chapter 730: The Meng Family of Three Chapter 730: Chapter 730: The Meng Family of Three What if Meng Pei left for the Southern before the trip and left the girl alone at home, what if someone took a fancy to her?
So, ten days later, Meng Pei married Song Xin and brought her home.
Song Xin was three months pregnant, and if she stayed in public view, it would soon be noticed.
Fortunately, she was originally thin, and after living well in the Meng family for about ten days, everyone just thought she had gained some weight and had gotten a bit fatter.
After the marriage, Meng Pei set off for the Southern, accompanied by Song Xin.
This time Meng Pei brought only a few people, and none of them were important escorts from the escort agency, nor were there any of Meng Pei’s uncles or elder relatives.
Therefore, along the way, Song Xin barely got off the carriage, and no one else had much to say.
When she occasionally got down, dressed in a thick winter cloak, she could still conceal her slightly noticeable pregnant belly.
Upon reaching the Southern and after delivering the goods, Meng Pei suddenly “fell ill” and could not start the journey back home.
He had to stay and recuperate, with Song Xin taking care of him by his side, while the others went back first.
As a result, he ended up recuperating for over a month.
Later, Meng Pei’s uncles received a letter from him, stating that Song Xin was pregnant and it was not suitable for her to travel back. Furthermore, he wanted to open a branch of the escort agency in the Southern.
This created a successful time gap; the elders at home had no idea how many months along Song Xin was.
The couple stayed in the Southern for a year, and Meng Yunzheng was born seven months after they were married.
Meng Pei wrote back home, claiming that Song Xin was accidentally bumped into by someone, causing the child to be born prematurely. However, due to the premature birth, Song Xin would have difficulty having children in the future.
That was the official story, but in truth, Song Xin had been weak from the start, and her early pregnancy had been full of complications. Although the child was not premature, the birth had indeed been difficult.
Even though mother and child were safe afterwards, Song Xin couldn’t have any more children for at least ten years.
Song Xin felt she had let Meng Pei down, but Meng Pei was grateful and very happy. He cherished Meng Yunzheng, who was very similar to Song Xin, treated him as his own child, and nurtured him wholeheartedly.
It was because of Meng Pei that Meng Yunzheng had such a solid foundation in martial arts during his early training.
Meng Yunzheng was smart from a young age, and with Meng Pei having a child, he took him everywhere. Sending him to learn martial arts, sending him to school, he was always cheerful, wishing to teach him all he knew.
