"What?" Mrs. Sun almost jumped up in surprise, "Qing'er, what are you talking about? Xiaohua is pregnant? Is it true? How many months has it been?"
Yang Ruoqing also said excitedly: "Is it true? Is it possible that Da'an's autographed letter is also fake?"
"As for how many months, those two idiots Da'an and Xiaohua probably don't know very well. Just from the doctor's diagnosis, I guess it's almost three months!"
"Almost three months?" Mrs. Sun's eyes lit up, counting the days on her fingers.
"It's the beginning of July now, and I will give birth in seven months. Well, next February, this time next year, my eldest grandson will be the most painful. It's great, great..."
Mrs. Sun was so happy that she almost burst into tears.
Xiaoduo also looked excited.
Yang Huazhong stood there with a grin on his face, his sleepiness having long since disappeared.
After laughing, Mrs. Sun suddenly said: "Neither of them has any experience in raising children, especially this first-born child."
"They don't have any elders to take care of them. The maids and servants they bought with money can only cook and wash clothes. They definitely can't trust the abortion, and they won't really care about it..."
"Qing'er, what should we do? Are you writing a letter asking Da'an to send Xiaohua back?" asked Sun.
Without waiting for Yang Ruoqing to answer, Yang Huazhong said first, "Da'an is so busy at the Hanlin Academy, how can he have time to send her off? Besides, it usually takes a few months to come back from the capital."
"My daughter-in-law is pregnant, so the carriage and horse must be slow and not bumpy. It may take two or three months. It won't work to send her back!" he said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, that was indeed the case.
Sun said: "If it doesn't work out, I'll go to the capital. I'm going to take care of Hua'er. Then I'll take all the hens at home with me. I'm going to take good care of Hua'er and my eldest grandson..."
Yang Ruoqing was shocked when she heard that Sun offered to go to the capital.
"Mom, did I hear you right? You used to have trouble getting used to it even if you went to Wanghai County, and you couldn't live without this three-acre land in Mianniu Mountain for the rest of your life."
"This capital city is thousands of miles away from us. It takes months to go there."
"Except for eating, drinking and sleeping down here for a few months, I spend the rest of the time in the carriage. Sometimes I even have to eat dry food in the carriage. Are you going too?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
When Sun heard this, his face turned pale with fear.
But his eyes were unusually firm, "For the sake of my eldest grandson, I will go no matter how far away!"
Yang Ruoqing did not dare to make a decision, but just turned her attention to Yang Huazhong.
Yang Huazhong also looked at Sun in shock and said, "Ms. Qing'er, are you really going to go? The journey is too far. You haven't even been to Qing'an County. I'm worried!"
Sun said: "What's wrong with this? I'm not a child. Besides, if I really go, Qing'er will definitely not let me go alone. Right Qing'er?"
Yang Ruoqing nodded quickly, "If mother really approves of my father, my grandfather, and my grandpa's unanimous consent to go to the capital, then I will definitely send you to the capital!"
I stopped by to check on the stores in the capital. Also, Tang Yazi was hunting down the remnants of the rebels.
It's all over. We need to go to the capital to recover from Emperor Qi first, and then we can return to the village.
I send my mother to the capital to give birth to my younger brother and sister. If I count the time, I can still meet Tang Yazi. When the time comes, both husband and wife will return home, that will be a great feeling!
When Yang Ruoqing fell into the longing of returning home romantically with Tang Yazi, Yang Huazhong was discussing with Sun again there.
"I don't feel comfortable leaving you alone in a place like the capital, and you will have to take care of your wife until she gives birth to a child. You won't be able to come back until March or April next year at the earliest,"
"My children are too young to travel long distances. It might not be until next summer. When I think of you leaving for a year, I don't even want to eat. I want to go too!"
Originally, the two people were communicating and discussing. At the end of the discussion, Sun became more and more determined to go to the capital.
As for Yang Huazhong, he simply acted like a child and clamored to go.
Seeing Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoduo looking at each other, they couldn't help laughing.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Okay, mom and dad, stop arguing. It's unrealistic for you to go to the capital. You still have to take care of the dozens of acres of crops at home."
"Besides, you can't do this house without you at home. Thieves will come into the house and remove everything."
"Mom, you also have to consider dad's concerns. Let's do this. If Xiaoduo is willing, let Xiaoduo go to the capital with mom."
"Xiaoduo can help mother and talk to Xiaohua. The three of us are not bored in the capital." Yang Ruoqing said.
Xiaoduo's eyes lit up, "Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go. I want to go to the capital with my mother to see Xiaohua and help take care of my eldest nephew!"
The family members have already discussed it, and the next step is to go and inform the elders on both sides.
Yang Huazhong and Mr. Sun went out in the scorching sun. First they went to Sun's house across the road and told Lao Suntou and Mr. Sun the good news.
After finishing the work, I went to the old house again and told Lao Yangtou and Mr. Tan about the matter.
After gaining support from the elders on both sides, the couple hurried home. At this time, the sun had already turned to the west.
According to his usual habits, Yang Huazhong should have put on his straw hat at this time, picked up his hoe and walked around the rice fields.
Mrs. Sun would ride on a basket and carry a bucket and a water ladle to the vegetable garden to water the vegetables...
But at this time today, the couple did not go out to do anything, but were packing things in the backyard.
While Mrs. Sun was packing her things, she told Yang Huazhong in detail how he should live at home.
Regarding food, clothing, housing, and transportation, Mrs. Sun gave meticulous instructions on everything. She seemed to have endless words to say and felt uneasy.
However, Sun did not want to give up the trip to the capital.
Yang Ruoqing came to her parents' house and said to Mrs. Sun, "Mom, don't worry. While I'm sending you to the capital, my father will go to my aunt's house every day to have a meal."
"No, I can cook by myself..." Yang Huazhong said quickly.
Sun said: "Don't be so stubborn. In the more than 20 years since I married you, have you ever burned a meal? You probably can't even wash rice!"
"If I ask you to go to my eldest sister's place for dinner, just go there obediently and don't let anyone send you here, do you understand?" Mrs. Sun warned again.
Yang Huazhong still insisted that he could learn...
Yang Huazhong grinned and said, "If you don't know how, just learn. No one is born knowing how to cook!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "Dad, while I'm sending my mother to the capital, you can go to my aunt's house for dinner."
"When I come back from the capital, you will come to my house for dinner. But just because your mother went to the capital to take care of her grandson, you can't starve your grandpa back home and get into trouble. That's not okay!"
Everyone laughed, and Yang Huazhong nodded, "Okay, I'll just follow your arrangements!"
After hearing Yang Huazhong's assurance, Mrs. Sun felt relieved.
