Hai Ming smiled and shook his head.
He said to An Xiaoou seriously, “Xiaoou, it’s enough that I have you. Father and Mother know that our union is extraordinary. No matter what the outcome is, they won’t blame us. If we’re destined not to be able to give birth to healthy children, we won’t give birth anymore. Father and Mother are still young and can give birth again.”
His father was one of the Elders and could use energy. If they did not have descendants, his parents would try again.
!!
There were not many descendants of the merpeople. Now that there were few spiritual veins, descendants of the merpeople without spiritual veins would not have intelligence at all.
An Xiaoou’s child was not only expected by the merpeople, but the other races were also watching.
The child was the fruit of their love. He really wanted to have this child, but the premise was that An Xiaoou was safe.
Hai Ming was unwilling to lose An Xiaoou.
There was only one person in the hearts of the merpeople. Once they made up their minds, they would not change. If one of them died, and the other would die alone.
There were tears in An Xiaoou’s eyes. She looked at Su Xiaolu and said, “Miss Su, can we wait until the first month? If I can’t give birth naturally by the first month, can you help me take out my baby?”
“No, Master said that your child is already huge. You can’t risk your life. Didn’t Hai Ming say just now that even if you don’t have this child, it doesn’t matter? His parents are still young and can give birth to another child to nurture. How can you risk your life? If mother was still around, mother wouldn’t agree either.”
An Lie interrupted. He clenched his fists and looked very nervous.
An Xiaoou had already turned into a mermaid. In terms of race, she was no longer his sister.
However, emotionally speaking, An Xiaoou was still An Xiaoou and his sister. Their parents were no longer around, so he should be the one protecting her.
According to the secular world, he naturally hoped that An Xiaoou would have a good marriage and have a bunch of children with her.
But now that the world had changed, having no children would not be seen badly by others. He would rather An Xiaoou not take such a risk. He wanted An Xiaoou to live more.
An Xiaoou looked at An Lie and opened her mouth, but in the end, she did not say anything else. This was her brother. He doted on her, loved her, and protected her. He was doing this for her own good.
An Cheng looked at Hai Ming and said, “Hai Ming, the nurturing process of humans and merpeople is different. As you said, merpeople don’t have such a big stomach when you’re pregnant. Actually, we humans don’t either. Unless you’re pregnant with two or three or more children at the same time, your stomach will not be so big. Xiaoou’s situation is special. Be it the nurturing process of humans or merpeople, it’s not completely accurate for her. I’m more inclined to think that the child is growing the same as us humans, but the pregnancy process is according to the rules of the merpeople.”
Therefore, even now, if she cut open the abdomen and took out the child, it would still be a healthy child.
If there was a problem, it was definitely not because of An Xiaoou.
Su Xiaolu was right. This child needed a lot of energy. He had already begun to absorb An Xiaoou’s life force.
This child was the reason why An Xiaoou was weak.
Hai Ming nodded. He looked at An Xiaoou seriously and said, “Xiaoou, the imperial physician has said many times that this child’s heart meridians are very healthy. It’s just that they can’t make up their minds. Miss Su has a wide range of medical skills. We should listen to the doctor. For the sake of your body, can we take the child out?”
Hai Ming did not object to this opinion, he also supported it. This actually stemmed from the deep love of the merpeople. In fact, for the merpeople, their partners would always be number one.
Children were important, but partners were more important.
An Xiaoou was silent.
She unconsciously placed her hand on her abdomen. She knew that her family was concerned about her, but she had not thought it through yet. An Xiaoou didn’t answer. She slowly sank into the water.
“Uncle, Brother, don’t be anxious. I’ll persuade her.”
Hai Ming said to An Cheng and An Lie before entering the water.
An Lie frowned. He was very puzzled. “Why is she like this?”
An Cheng sighed. He patted An Lie’s shoulder and said softly, “Little Lie, you still don’t understand. Xiaoou is actually the same as your mother. Didn’t your mother also risk everything for us?”
An Xiaoou had not changed. What had changed was her ident.i.ty.
When she was An Xiaoou, she could do anything for her family. Now that she wanted to be a mother, she was connected to the child in her stomach. That was her flesh and blood. How could she not care? It was reasonable for her to be worried and afraid.
Wasn’t it because of kinship that they were worried about her?
An unborn child was very precious, but they were not that familiar with each other, so they cared more about An Xiaoou.
An Lie was speechless. He felt bitter.
His sister had grown up. She was going to be a mother.
“So what can we do?”
An Lie was in pain. He asked An Cheng, hoping that An Cheng would give him an answer. He was An Xiaoou’s biological brother. How could he watch her be so weak? What could he do for her?
An Cheng’s gaze was firm. “Go find some rare treasures. Xiaoou wants to wait a little longer. The child needs energy. As long as we give him enough, he won’t absorb Xiaoou’s life force.”
An Xiaoou was obviously unwilling. She had her own considerations. As a family, they could not use worry as an excuse to force her. They could only think of a way to help her.
Since the child absorbed a lot, he would find more good things for An Xiaoou to use.
An Lie nodded. “Okay.”
mSu Xiaolu looked at the uncle and nephew and said, “I’ll be at home. If you need anything, just call me.”
She did not interfere with any decisions of others. She only did what she was supposed to do.
An Lie and An Cheng nodded.
An Lie said gratefully, “Thank you, Master.”
Su Xiaolu smiled faintly. “It’s fine. It’s just a small matter.”
Su Xiaolu looked at the calm lake and couldn’t help but wonder what kind of baby An Xiaoou would give birth to.
When the child was born, would it be in human form, have a human’s head and a fish’s body, or just a fish?
Before An Xiaoou could make a decision, Su Xiaolu and Su Kuo left the palace first.
On the way, Su Kuo said to Su Xiaolu, “Sister, An Xiaoou’s child is already very healthy. It’s a boy.”
Su Xiaolu’s eyes lit up. She turned to look at Su Kuo. “Little Kuo, how do you know? Then do you know what he’s like? I mean, does he have feet or fish tail, or is he a fish?”
Su Kuo grinned and said, “It’s a mermaid baby. Its upper body is human. Its lower body is a small blue tail.”
“Actually, he’s no different from a human baby. Apart from his body, he’s very healthy when he comes out now, but he absorbs more in the mother’s womb. He’ll grow faster inside than outside, so An Xiaoou will have a hard time.” Su Kuo told Su Xiaolu what he knew..
