Watching Chen Jingyun help Dong Baishi into the house, Chen Cai and Yu Shifeng outside the courtyard glanced at each other and saw the slightest difference in each other's eyes, Chen Cai took a sip of the teacup and said, "I think Director Yu and I think it should be the same!" ”

Yu Shifeng was silent and said, "Maybe!" ”

But after saying that, he sighed and said: "If this is really like you and I thought, when the time comes, not only will the two people in the inner courtyard of the Governor's Mansion resent me, but I am afraid that the old woman in Liuhe Lane will also have to complain about me!" ”

Chen Cai was: "What are you afraid of, if they want to complain, they will complain about me first!" ”

Chen Cai and Yu Shifeng are two special people in the national army system, Chen Cai was the captain of Chen Jingyun's guard before, and then presided over the Military Investigation Bureau, and became the head of the big spy under Chen Jingyun, helping Chen Jingyun to do many things that I don't know. After Yu Shifeng became the head of the Governor's Office, he also became a close subordinate of Chen Jingyun, and he was the representative of Chen Jingyun and Yang Du and other personal representatives of the Governor during the Shanghai Governor's Conference.

Due to their work relationship, these two people basically participated in all Chen Jingyun's secret affairs, and they knew more or less about whether they were official or private affairs.

The two of them knew the details of the Dong Bai family's matter, and even the two of them were present when Chen Jingyun first met Dong Bai's family, and every time Chen Jingyun went to the Dong family's courtyard in the future, these two people basically arranged the itinerary.

Chen Jingyun wanted to secretly raise a woman outside, and Lin Yun in the inner house didn't dare to oppose Chen Jingyun directly, but it was also very terrifying for the woman to launch a surge, and she found an opportunity to scold Chen Cai for a bloody head, and even Yu Shifeng in the secretariat did not break away from the relationship, and was beaten by Lin Yun.

It's just that these two people didn't dare to speak out after being scolded by Lin Yun, let alone say anything to Chen Jingyun, if this Dong Bai clan was really pregnant as they guessed today, there was no need to think about it, the lady in the Governor's Mansion would definitely have to be furious, and she naturally didn't dare to lose her temper at Chen Jingyun, but the two of them Chen Jingyun's side people probably didn't have much luck. And there is another point, this Dong Bai clan doesn't even have a reputation now, if she is really pregnant, maybe even the old woman on the other side of Liuhe Lane will be angry.

The conjecture of the two of them was quickly confirmed, and Chen Jingyun's personal doctor, Dr. Mister, quickly came over for treatment after learning that Dong Bai was not feeling well, and then said to Chen Jingyun in person: "Your Excellency, General, I am honored to tell you that your wife is pregnant!" ”

Chen Jingyun didn't think about this aspect before, and Dong Bai said that she might eat unclean things on the street during the day, so he was worried that she would eat bad stomach, but he didn't expect her to be pregnant.

Pregnant, Chen Jingyun was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and then took a few deep breaths and said calmly: "Doctor Mister, are you sure?" ”

Dr. Mister smiled and nodded, "Believe me, judging from your wife's current situation, she is already five weeks pregnant, and you will soon be able to be a father!" ”

Hearing Dr. Mister's words so sure, Chen Jingyun's face changed from calm to a little overwhelmed, he took two steps forward while breathing, and then walked to the window and looked at Dong Bai's half-sitting in front of him, sat on the edge of the bed, and stretched out his hand to hold Dong Bai's hand: "You are pregnant, I am going to be a father!" ”

Dong Bai's face was already full of joy at this time, and he smiled at Chen Jingyun and cried.

Chen Jingyun stretched out his hand to hug her: "This is a good thing, why are you crying!" ”

Dong Bai let Chen Jingyun wipe her tears for her, and only said after a while: "I'm happy!" ”

Inside the house, Dong Bai and Chen Jingyun were talking softly, while outside the house, Chen Cai and Yu Shifeng stepped forward and asked after seeing Doctor Mister come out, "Doctor, how is it?" ”

Dr. Mister didn't answer directly, but said, "See for yourselves!" With that, he turned to look inside the room behind him.

When Chen Cai and Yu Shifeng saw the two people in the room hugging each other softly and whispering, the two of them had already guessed what was going on.

"Brother Chen, now the commander estimates that he won't take care of us for a while, why don't we go first?" Yu Shifeng said.

Chen Cai also said: "Well, let's go first!" ”

As he walked, Chen Cai said again: "Let's not talk about this matter first, otherwise it will spread to the inner courtyard of Fuzhou and Liuhe Lane, I'm afraid they will have to trouble us!" ”

Yu Shifeng said: "This is the commander's family matter, let's not worry about it!" ”

"Huh!" Chen Cai said: "Hehe, it's not, we won't wade into this troubled water!" ”

Chen Jingyun in the house comforted Dong Bai's and stopped suffering, and then fed her a bowl of lotus seed soup with his own hands, Dong Bai's eyes, who had never let Chen Jingyun feed and drink before, were red again, and then he didn't care about the girl who was waiting, and he hugged Chen Jingyun and cried again, pregnant women are always easy to be emotional.

The woman in her arms was crying, and Chen Jingyun could only pat her back and say comforting words.

Regarding Dong Bai's reaction, Chen Jingyun probably understood it, Dong Bai's had been with him for more than half a year, but he had been kept outside, she knocked on the side several times and said that she wanted to enter the house, but Chen Jingyun has always pretended to be confused. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that it's really not easy.

It doesn't matter if Chen Jingyun is just an ordinary landlord and rich businessman, or even just an ordinary warlord or something, no one says anything about you if you take a concubine and raise an aunt or wife, but Chen Jingyun's identity is not as simple as an ordinary warlord, the national army has been shaping Chen Jingyun's personal image for more than a year, and there is a special department in the Propaganda Department responsible for Chen Jingyun's personal image.

After the establishment of the Republic of China, Nanjing Provisional Political Axe and Beiyang Political Axe have revised the relevant civil law, which involves marriage is more interesting, stipulating monogamy, but at the same time it is determined that concubines and parents live together for a long time, should be regarded as the family of the family, enjoy the status of family members, concubines and children also enjoy the same rights as wives and children, especially the right to inherit property, of course, the concubine herself does not have the right to inherit property, and the law stipulates that the parents have the obligation to support the concubine, in case of ' As a last resort, the two parties can dissolve the relationship, and there is no hard and fast surname rule for this last resort, theoretically speaking, you can leave if you want to, and the woman can take the initiative to propose. Comparatively speaking, it is much more troublesome to divorce between formal husband and wife, even if the man wants to file for divorce, let alone the woman's, unless the evidence of the other party is caught, otherwise don't think about divorce in this life, and then I have to say here that having a relationship with a concubine is not a common annihilation.

These civil law regulations deny that the relationship between concubines and spouses is a marriage relationship, but a kinship relationship, and then there is no limit to concubines, no matter who wants to marry as much as they want, so to a certain extent, it is easier to take concubines in the Republic of China than in any previous Chinese dynasty, and there are many requirements for concubines in the previous feudal dynasties, such as having no children over forty years old, such as having to have meritorious officials and the like to have three wives and four concubines, but in the Republic of China, only those who have money can marry casually, and no one cares about you if you have money to build a harem.

The same is true for Chen Jingyun, now legally speaking, he only has one wife, and that is Lin Yun. Even Luo Li and Chen Jingyun, who have been recognized as Chen Jingyun's second aunt, are not husband and wife, but relatives, and claim to be their aunts.

Although Chen Jingyun currently only accepts one concubine, he is not an ordinary person, Chen Jingyun must also take into account the issue of political image, and now many social groups are against taking concubines, especially feminist social groups. The young revolutionaries in these years were basically monogamous, such as Sun Wen, such as the later bald heads, although they all had more than one woman, but they tried their best to divorce and remarry, not concubines.

At the beginning, Chen Jingyun Na Luo Li was a concubine, there was no way, Chen Yu's family in Liuhe Lane had already been booked, but after that, Chen Jingyun had no such plan, and Dong Bai's identity was a little sensitive, her previous identity was still a secret, but this secret couldn't be hidden from someone who had a heart.

If you don't get it right in the future, maybe the reputation of robbing your wife will have to spread.

With so many scruples, Chen Jingyun never thought of bringing Dong Bai's family into the house, and it was the same to keep him outside. It's just that he also knows that he has a lot of grievances against Dong Bai's family, so he will spoil her many times, otherwise he wouldn't let her come to Shanghai this time.

It's just that this time Dong Bai's is pregnant, and she is pregnant before Lin Yun and Luo Li, which suddenly breaks this already fragile balance, which has to make Chen Jingyun consider the arrangement of Dong Bai's family.

When Chen Jingyun was worried about family affairs, the domestic situation was still tense, the war in southern Jiangsu was still continuing, and more than 20,000 people from Cao Kun and Zhang Xun's troops in the direction of Zhenjiang launched a fierce attack on Shen Gang's first division and Li Jimin's fourth division. In the direction of Lishui, when Ma Cheng found out that Jin Yunpeng had transferred a regiment back to Nanjing for reinforcements, he decisively ordered the entire First Division to attack, and at the same time, Lin Zhaomin led the Seventh Division to attack in a roundabout direction to the northeast, preparing to capture the Jurong area.

When the fierce battle was being fought in the direction of Lishui and Zhenjiang, the battle in the direction of Nanjing also officially began!

On the thirteenth, the vanguard of the first regiment of the guard division arrived in the outskirts of Nanjing, and then engaged in a skirmish with the defenders of the Beiyang Army in the outlying areas.

At this time, the Sa Zhenbing fleet, which had covered the westward advance of the guard division from Yangzhou, also arrived in Nanjing, with the Haiqi and three Haizi cruisers as the main force, plus more than a dozen gunboats of various sizes braved the fierce artillery fire to destroy part of the Nanjing Fort of the Yangtze River under the control of the Beiyang Army, and then successfully controlled the waters of the Nanjing section of the Yangtze River, cutting off the connection between the north and south shores of Nanjing, that is to say, cutting off the supply line of the Beiyang Army.

Although he had expected this situation and had made preparations in advance, Feng Guozhang couldn't help but gasp when he heard that Sa Zhenbing's fleet had arrived and cut off the connection between the north and south of the Yangtze River.

"The regiment of the Fifth Division can't cross the river, but it's okay to guard Nancheng. As for the North Shore, I'll guard it myself! Feng Guo pressed his saber in his hand at this moment, and his face showed determination.

At this time, there were more than one regiment of the Eighth Division of the Beiyang Army on the north bank of Nanjing, as well as the troops directly under the relevant Second Army and other auxiliary troops.

As for the blockade of the Yangtze River by Sa Zhenbing's fleet, he was a little worried about this, he had already asked Yuan Shikai to transfer the only heavy artillery unit under the Beiyang Army to Nanjing, plus there were still some batteries on both sides of Nanjing were still in the hands of the Beiyang Army, even if Sa Zhenbing's fleet could gain the upper hand in a short time, but it would not work for a long time, and besides, it was a big deal to directly ask foreign ships to send supplies to the south coast when the time came, Feng Guozhang believed that Sa Zhenbing would not dare to fire at foreign ships if he had a hundred guts.
