Married To The Male Lead's Father (Translation)

CHAPTER 75

Dr. Chen had not anticipated that the Duke of Ding's good fortune was just beginning. The Duchess was pregnant with twins. Although full confirmation would only come in two months, Dr. Chen, being an experienced physician, mentioned it tentatively to remain cautious.

"Dr. Chen, you'll need to pay extra attention to Ningbao from now on," Old Madam Xie said anxiously. She was both pleased and worried about her daughter-in-law carrying twins.

She wished Dr. Chen could be stationed at the Duke's residence all the time.

"That's expected. The condition of the fetus is very stable, and I'm confident the children will be healthy and strong," Dr. Chen said with a smile. After all, these were the Duke's children, so he had to be meticulous.

"Good, good, that's wonderful."

Old Madam Xie's eyes practically squinted with joy.

With a grandson on the way, as a mother, she was overjoyed, especially since Ningbao had managed to conceive twins at the very first attempt. In a few months, she would be able to hold two chubby and healthy grandchildren.

Jiang Ningbao's eyes were filled with happiness as she gently touched her slightly protruding belly. No wonder her belly had started showing at just three months—she was carrying twins.

Jiang Ningbao was even more attentive now and quickly asked Dr. Chen for advice on how to take care of herself during the pregnancy.

After Dr. Chen left, Old Madam Xie, unable to contain her excitement, instructed, "Ningbao, now that you're pregnant with twins, feel free to ask for anything you want to eat. I want you to be healthy and chubby."

Jiang Ningbao smiled and said, "Mother, the twins haven't been confirmed yet, but my appetite is great right now. Everything tastes good."

"Dr. Chen said it's a sign of twins, so it must be true."

Old Madam Xie was immersed in her joy.

Nanny Huang and the attendants Chunxi and Chunle were also beaming with happiness. Twins were considered a good omen, and their mistress was indeed blessed.

However, this news was only shared among a few people present.

At noon, Duke Ding returned home.

"Duke, Dr. Chen said I might be carrying twins," Jiang Ningbao said happily after lunch, touching her slightly bulging belly, radiating a maternal glow.

Duke Ding, Xie Heng, was naturally pleased to hear this. He placed his large hand on Jiang Ningbao's belly and showed a hint of joy in his eyes. "Really?"

"I think it's highly likely. Look, I'm only three months pregnant, but my belly is already showing. I initially thought it was just the extra nourishment making me gain weight, but now, with Dr. Chen's diagnosis, it seems there's a high chance it's twins," Jiang Ningbao said, leaning into the Duke's embrace, feeling a bit shy.

The Duke wrapped his arms around his little wife, his eyes softening with tenderness. He kissed her cheek and said, "I've heard that carrying twins can be exhausting. I'll try to spend more time with you."

Jiang Ningbao quickly shook her head. "No need. Mother is here to keep me company. Duke, if you're busy at noon, you don't have to come back to the residence. Mother and I can have our meals together."

She wasn't fragile; she was eating well, sleeping well, and her face was glowing with health.

With Yang Shuqing no longer in the residence, there was nothing more to worry about.
