Rebirth: So what if my husband is a little crazy? He loves me.

Chapter 175 The Fertility-Boosting Team

Shen Yue quickly waved her hands: "I was wrong, sister. I won't do it again next time."

As Shen Li jokingly looked at her younger sister, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The child had really grown up a lot; she would be turning 18 by summer.

"Hey, Yu Die has grown so fast. She only came up to my shoulder when I went back a while ago, but she looks so tall now." Shen Yue said, looking at Yu Die who was starting a fire.

"This child used to be too short. He didn't have enough to eat when he was little. Now that he has enough to eat, he has naturally grown taller." Shen Li also looked in that direction, her expression even more gratified.

"That child is studious, she loves reading and martial arts, I'll move in and teach her later." Shen Yue also liked Yu Die very much.

It's so rare to find someone younger than her who also loves martial arts.

"Forsythia and peony are teaching. If you also teach them, they will be quite successful in a few years."

Shen Yue nodded, her gaze shifting from Gu Chang, who was setting up his fishing rod by the river, to Shen Li: "Since you like raising children so much, why don't you and your brother-in-law have one?"

Shen Li's initially relieved expression froze. She hadn't expected Shen Yue to ask such a question. After understanding, she could only smile wryly: "No rush. I've just entered officialdom, and having a child would affect my future."

Lianqiao and the others were all busy with their own things, but when they heard this, they all tilted their heads in this direction as if they were about to stick their ears out to listen.

This is also a question they are very curious about.

They're clearly inseparable, so how come they don't have children?

“Why would you think that, sister? It takes at least three years to get promoted as a Hanlin scholar. Now that you’re so relaxed and have so much to see, it’s the perfect time to have a baby,” Shen Yue analyzed.

Seeing her serious expression, Shen Li couldn't help but tap her on the forehead and ask, "Who taught you to say that? Father or Mother?"

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, sister! Parents insisted I ask," Shen Yue complained, rubbing her forehead. "Sister, you have to tell them when you get back. Isn't that setting a bad example for the children?"

Shen Li was amused by her and asked with a smile, "Does it hurt?"

"Please be gentle, sister, it doesn't hurt." Seeing that the crisis was over, Shen Yue smiled and let go.

Her words of "show mercy" were not just empty words; if her sister used too much force, she would be going to meet the ancestor in the underworld.

Even so, Shen Li still rubbed her hands and said, "Go back and tell your parents we're fine. As for having a child, it depends on fate. When the time is right, I'll naturally give birth."

In the end, she has never had children, while Shen Yue had three adorable little ones in her previous life, two boys and one girl.

"Okay." Shen Yue agreed and then whispered, "Father has been praising my brother-in-law a lot lately. He often praises him during meals, but Father doesn't let me say it."

"Good girl." Shen Li smiled, patted her shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go fishing."

Shen Yue shook her head repeatedly: "No, I don't want to sit there and not move. I want to go up the mountain to catch wild rabbits."

"Then be careful." Shen Li turned her head and instructed, "Peony, you go with the Second Miss and make sure to protect her."

Peony was very excited about this arrangement because she also enjoyed catching pheasants and rabbits, and if she was lucky, she might even encounter a deer.

Shen Yue's own maids were also trained by Xiao Bailing. From a young age, she selected girls with good physiques and diligence to learn martial arts. Those who ended up by her daughter's side were all agile and clever.

Having given her instructions, Shen Li felt reassured and returned to Gu Chang'an's side, picking up the fishing rod he had prepared.

"Ah Li, are you bored?" Gu Chang'an asked as she approached. "Could we go hunting in the mountains or wander around?"

"I don't have much energy right now," Shen Li said honestly. "It's not too late to leave after lunch."

Gu Chang'an just smiled. If he remembered correctly, only an hour and a half had passed since breakfast.

"And I love sitting here with my husband amidst these mountains and rivers, how beautiful it is." Shen Li closed her eyes, feeling the gentle breeze on her face.

Unlike the deep autumn and cold winter when she was first reborn, the spring breeze is warm, carrying the sweet scent of grass and earth, which makes people feel relaxed and comfortable.

Gu Chang'an nodded with a smile. He also liked being with A-Li, no matter where they were.

This day was relaxing and carefree. Gu Chang'an and Shen Li didn't catch enough fish to eat, so Shen Yue and Shaoyao went into the river and caught a few more.

This made Shen Li and Gu Chang'an exchange a knowing smile, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

After having fish for lunch, Gu Chang'an took Shen Li for a stroll at the foot of the mountain. The two walked hand in hand on the grass, talking as they went.

"Are there farmlands here too?" Shen Li looked around as a strong middle-aged man carrying a hoe walked over from a distance, but she couldn't see any farmlands.

Gu Chang'an narrowed his eyes slightly, gripped Shen Li's hand tightly, and was ready to reach for the musket strapped to his calf at any moment.

Shen Li was relaxed, so she casually mentioned it at the beginning. She only had to stare at the farmer for a few steps to see that something was wrong. His steps were neat and powerful, his body was not swaying, and his legs were obviously bent inward.

She had seen many such people in the army; she could tell they were cavalrymen just by looking at their legs.

"Husband, there's no need to worry. Even if someone has ulterior motives, they won't cause much trouble." Compared to Gu Chang'an's early preparations, Shen Li decided to observe the situation calmly.

With her reaction speed, even if the man pulled out a musket when he got close, she was confident she could escape unscathed. Of course, whether the soldier could escape unscathed was another matter.

The group drew closer and closer, their shadows appearing beneath the tree, watching the man intently, ready to strike at any moment.

However, Shadow didn't feel that this person was dangerous, mainly because he was alone, and even if he wanted to do something bad, he probably wouldn't be able to get past Madam.

Even though they were a little closer, Shen Li still couldn't see the expression on the man's face because he was wearing a bamboo hat, which hid most of his face underneath.

He still made his move. When he got close, he took out a bamboo tube from his pocket. Seeing that no one was around, he stopped and flicked the bamboo tube with his fingers, sending it flying towards Shen Li.

The bamboo tube landed at Shen Li's feet. The man adjusted his straw hat, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Shen Li, and turned to leave.

Shen Li also bowed to see them off, but her heart was heavy. The only person in the army who could still send her messages was Lin Wan'er.

Gu Chang'an bent down and picked up the bamboo tube, noticing that it didn't look particularly special.

She took the bamboo tube from Gu Chang'an and took out a small note from it, which read: "Second floor of Zuixianlou tomorrow afternoon."

"Husband, have you heard anything about what's happening in the military camp?" Shen Li asked.

She knew Lin Wan'er wouldn't contact her unless something serious happened, and she really wanted to know now what had happened.

Gu Chang'an shook his head: "The three major camps in the capital suffered a defeat last time, and they are now undergoing painful training to learn from their mistakes. I haven't heard of any new developments."
