Chapter 877: Exhortation

Translator: Lonelytree 

My little uncle was ecstatic. He didn’t dare to touch Mai Qi, who was stuck with a silver needle. He grabbed my shoulders and shook them. “I’m going to be a father? I’m going to be a father? Nanxing! I’m going to be a father!”

I felt dizzy from his shaking. I raised my head and pleaded, “Yes, yes, yes, you’re a father, little uncle!”

My little uncle let go of me and asked Mr. Li foolishly, “Sir, am I really going to be a father?”

Mr. Li did not even raise his head. “But you almost killed this child last night!”

Little Uncle’s expression changed. “Ah? Sir? Is the child Alright?”

Mr. Li said lazily, “If the child is not alright, we won’t be so relaxed.”

He lowered his head and looked at Mai Qi, whose face was already flushed red. He said earnestly, “Girl, no matter how much you love him, you can’t let him do whatever he wants! If you can’t stop him, then chase him out and sleep in separate rooms!”

Mai Qi hurriedly said, “No!”

Mr. Li was stunned for a moment.

Mai Qi shyly said, “He has to stay with me. If he’s not here, the child and I will be afraid.”

She looked at me as if she was asking for help.

I held back my laughter and said to Mr. Li, “Yes, master. Then Mai Qi is pregnant. Shouldn’t little uncle be by their side?”

Mr. Li rolled his eyes at little uncle and said to me, “Then you have to make him promise to abide by the rules!”

My little uncle didn’t dare to say anything.

I quickly made way for him. “Don’t worry, don’t worry! I guarantee that my uncle will definitely follow the rules!”

I looked at Mai Qi with a faint smile. Mai Qi gave me a fawning smile.

“Um, master, is the child in Mai Qi’s stomach really alright?” I carefully asked on behalf of the two of them.

Mr. Li nodded. “If the position was slightly off, she won’t be able to keep it. Tsk! Really! Young people! You must be careful in the future. It’s the same for Mai Qi. Why don’t you have any common sense at all?”

Mai Qi lowered her eyes.

Recalling what Mai Qi told me yesterday, I couldn’t help but say, “Master, don’t blame her. It’s normal for girls like us who don’t have a mother by our side to give us advice.”

Mr. Li glared at me relentlessly. “Don’t make excuses. You’re all highly educated people!”

I smiled apologetically. “Then why don’t you teach us what we should pay attention to?”

Mr. Li calmed down and gave us some basic education. Then, he said, “We’ll have to tell Old Madam Jing and Madam Jing about this. It’ll be more reassuring to let them take care of us. You, young people, are so unreliable.”

My youngest uncle immediately said, “Then, then I’ll send Mai Qi to the Jing family. I’ll feel more at ease with them taking care of Mai Qi.”

“I won’t go!” Mai Qi objected.

My uncle was put in a difficult position. “Then what should we do? Then, then I’ll ask Jing Tian to call a few experienced servants from their family over.”

At this moment, he only cared about Mai Qi.

Mr. Li was very satisfied with this attitude. Therefore, he said, “You don’t have to be too nervous. I’ll instruct you about the food and daily care. Go and greet old Mrs. Jing. They’ll naturally come over to take care of you. With Mai Qi’s character, she won’t behave well. You just need to take care of her normally.

“Although today’s matter is dangerous, it’s not a big deal. It’s also a blessing for your Tong family. Cherish it well, Kid! But I believe Qu Hao will be very mad about this. If he finds out that his sister is pregnant, Tong Le…”
