The Old Chinese Medicine Doctor extended three fingers and placed them on Yu Suihuan's pulse, closing his eyes in concentration.
After a moment, the old man opened his eyes and looked at Yu Suihuan, a hint of a smile appearing on his face.
"Congratulations! You are having twins—a boy and a girl!"
"What? Twins?"
Yu Suihuan and Yang Qingping could hardly believe it. They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with astonishment.
"Is this really true?" Yang Qingping asked eagerly for confirmation.
The Old Chinese Medicine Doctor was not annoyed; he smiled gently and took the pulse again.
After a moment, he looked at Yu Suihuan and spoke slowly. "From the pulse, it is indeed twins—one boy and one girl!"
"Really? That’s wonderful!"
Yang Qingping excitedly grasped Yu Suihuan's hand, her eyes brimming with joy.
Yu Suihuan was equally thrilled, speechless for a while.
"Thank you!"
Yang Qingping quickly took out the consultation fee and presented it with both hands. The old man bowed in acknowledgment.
"There’s no need to be polite, young lady. Just ensure she takes good care of herself and remember not to overexert."
"Alright, thank you!"
Yu Suihuan and Yang Qingping expressed their gratitude once more before leaving the Old Chinese Medicine Doctor's residence.
Upon returning home, Yang Qingping shared the doctor's diagnosis with everyone, and disbelief spread among them.
"Two? Are there really two?"
The Two Grandmas were no longer calm; having two would mean less hardship for everyone involved.
Yang Mother was so moved that tears streamed down her face—how could she not be happy with two grandchildren on the way?
In the days that followed, Yu Suihuan received even more careful attention and care.
Every day, Yang Mother prepared delicious meals for Yu Suihuan, and her weight was visibly increasing at a rapid pace. Wang Zhaoran had also moved into the Siheyuan, spending his days either attending classes or tinkering with his pieces of wood. In addition to making another crib, he carved many exquisite toys for the children from the wood.
Yu Suihuan was so well protected every day, with so many eyes watching over her, that she could only sneak into her space at night while everyone was asleep. The space had been beautifully planned by Jie and others, and the warm, romantic fairy tale town was still being perfected. Soft lighting paired with soothing music created a dreamy atmosphere, with every corner filled with surprises.
The previously colorful house had been painted in vibrant hues during her brief absence, adorned with small flags of various colors fluttering gently in the breeze as if waving hello. Additionally, Yu Suihuan's castle was nearing completion. The exterior of the castle combined Gothic, Baroque, and Romanesque elements to form a unique romantic style. It featured colored marble with golden or red roofs, pointed spires, arched windows, and relief sculptures on the walls that exuded grandeur and solemnity.
Inside, the castle was designed in a modern style for greater comfort and practicality. It possessed both a sense of historical weight and residential comfort. Behind the castle lay a beautiful garden tended by Li Xiuzhen, filled with various fruit trees and flowers. The fragrance of blossoms mingled with the scent of fruit, creating an enchanting atmosphere.
In the center of the garden stood a fountain that replicated one from a childhood drawing they had created together. The clear water sparkled under the sunlight, adding a touch of liveliness and whimsy to the entire garden. Yu Suihuan stood on the balcony of the castle, gazing down at this beautiful world they had crafted together, her heart brimming with satisfaction.
