Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 1966 - 1974: Unbelievable Second Watch (2)

In fact, Zhao Hua treated him so well, he could have lived a life of love and wealth with her, having multiple children, and still fulfilled his heart’s desire.

Unfortunately, his obsessions were too deep back then. If he had thought of these things earlier, why would he have ended up in such a state?

There is no medicine for regret in this world. Even though Chen He regretted it to his core, the things he had done were irreversible. Before the year was over, he passed away...

After death, his body was wrapped in a tattered mat by a eunuch and dragged to Chaos Grave Hill to be buried casually. His life ended just like that...

In Tiekan Temple, Master Jing Hui faced the ancient Buddha with a green lamp, her heart utterly desolate. She had left her son and husband, and her life was now as dry as an abandoned well, devoid of any interest. Now, she was merely existing, just alive, nothing more...

In the county town of Tongzhou Agricultural Peace County, Shen Juhua was cradling the baby in her bosom, focused intently on feeding the child.

This child was born to Juhua, and Dad and Mom still believed the child’s father was Li Sheng. So they had no objections. After the child’s birth, they joyfully accepted this little life and fell madly in love with the little one.

Only Juhua knew that her child was not Li Sheng’s at all. She didn’t even know whose it was. Perhaps, only Liu Xi knew the answer, since he was the one who took her home after the incident.

She thought she would have no further interaction with Liu Xi in this lifetime. Unexpectedly, after her family moved to the county town of Tongzhou Agricultural Peace County, Liu Xi also moved there and even became their neighbor. It was almost too coincidental.

However, Liu Xi had already changed his name to Dai Xiangchen, and all his identity and household registry information had been altered. Clearly, he did not want to be the Liu Eunuch from before anymore.

Initially, she felt a sense of repulsion knowing Liu Xi was her neighbor, as he was aware of such a big secret of hers. If he ever revealed it, she wouldn’t be able to face anyone again.

However, Liu Xi never brought up the matter. When he saw she was pregnant, he seemed happier than even her Dad and Mom. Today he sent a black chicken, tomorrow an old ginseng to strengthen her body. Various nurturing medicines and tonics flowed in as gifts. If not for his eunuch identity, she would suspect he was the child’s father.

Regarding Liu Xi’s attentiveness, Shen Luming and his wife received it with ease. They understood that Liu Xi was already a friend, and now that they were in an unfamiliar place away from home, it was natural for the two families to be closer.

Moreover, given Juhua’s good relationship with the Empress Dowager, it was possible the Empress Dowager had entrusted him to look after their family!

Juhua truly let go of her prejudice against him on the day she gave birth.

During childbirth, as Juhua had consumed too many supplements usually, the child was too large, causing an unexpected difficult labor. The most reputable stable woman in Nong’an County was invited by Dad with a lot of money, but after an entire day and night, the child still wasn’t born. The stable women all said it was hopeless and asked Dad and Mom to choose between the child and her.

Though usually unreliable, at this crucial moment, she earnestly requested Dad and Mom to let the chance of survival go to her child, otherwise, she would certainly take her own life.

While Shen Luming and his wife were weeping in despair, Liu Xi suddenly burst in, insisting on assisting with the delivery. He claimed to have been present during the Empress Dowager’s childbirth and witnessed how the palace’s midwives and female doctors managed it, thus having birthing experience, and would surely help Juhua deliver the child safely.

Desperate to clutch at any solution, Shen Luming and his wife had no other option. They could only treat a dead horse as if it were alive. Considering his eunuch status, there wasn’t much taboo, so they let him in for the delivery.
