Xue Yu was immersed in the joy of her husband's return and did not notice anything was wrong with the man.
Then he said, "I just asked Mr. Wei to let him go to the Jiang family to find you. I wonder if he is back now? If he is not back, I have to tell him."
Wei Jingchen felt something strange in his heart when he heard his name in Xue Yu's mouth.
"It doesn't matter, I just met him on the road and has already gone back to the room to rest."
His voice showed no emotion at all.
"That's good."
Xue Yu suddenly felt as if something had kicked her in the abdomen, and she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Hey."
Wei Jingchen frowned slightly and looked Xue Yu up and down, fearing that something had happened to her.
"What happened? But do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"
Somehow, the last time she was in his arms came to mind, her face was pale, and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
He was panicking, as if his heart and mind were grasped in her hands.
Now I am even more frightened.
Xue Yu had never heard such an anxious tone from her husband. She laughed out loud, grabbed his big palm and placed it on her abdomen.
"It's the baby greeting us."
As soon as he finished speaking, the baby moved twice vigorously, as if in response.
Wei Jingchen suddenly felt something kicking his palm, very lightly and softly.
It was as if his heart was being rubbed by an invisible hand, and a strange emotion filled his heart.
Sour and swollen.
"...Is this my child?" Wei Jingchen suddenly asked.
Xue Yu only felt that the man's question was a bit silly. She thought he was too happy, and the smile on her lips couldn't help but deepen.
"Otherwise, you are the child's biological father."
At this moment, Wei Jingchen had a sense of reality. It turned out that he was really going to be a father.
The usual chill on Wei Jingchen's face dissipated a bit, and his eyes fell on Xue Yu's abdomen, showing a little softness.
She secretly thought that she was pregnant with his flesh and blood, so she couldn't be left outside.
When a suitable opportunity comes one day, he will tell Xue Yu his identity.
Then he was brought to the capital and given a title.
The next day.
Xue Yu still hadn't seen Jiang Xuze during the day, but in the early morning, she vaguely heard him say that he had gone to the mountains to collect medicine, intending to earn more money for the child in her belly.
At noon.
Xue Yu's eyesight was not good, so it was a bit difficult to cook. Now that she has a big belly, she is even more cautious.
It took a lot of effort to scoop the water into the pot, and there were many beads of sweat on my forehead.
From the moment Xue Yu entered the kitchen, Wei Jingchen was watching from the side, with a calm expression on his face and a tense jaw.
He is clearly here, why do he keep showing off?
Xue Yu had never paid attention to the man's movements. She struggled to hold on to her waist and reluctantly picked up the firewood.
His body swayed, teetering on the edge of collapse.
Seeing that Wei Jingchen's brows were frowning even more tightly, his eyes were sharp, he took a few steps forward and held her waist firmly with his big hands.
Xue Yu felt that the hot palm on her waist was inexplicably familiar, thinking it was Jiang Xuze, "Husband, are you back?"
There was obvious joy in the clear voice.
Wei Jingchen saw a smile appear on the woman's pretty face. Her face turned a little darker instantly, her eyes were as cold as ice, and she gritted her teeth and uttered a few words.
"It's Wei."
Did she want to see him that much?
Listening to the man's cold voice, Xue Yu was stunned for a moment, two lines of rouge appeared on her cheeks, and her ears were also stained with a flush.
Why did she think he was a man just now? He actually shouted it out to him.
Thinking of the man's big palm still on her waist, she felt even more uncomfortable.
Xue Yu quickly broke away and lowered her head, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wei, I thought I was my husband..."
Wei Jingchen's eyes fell on Xue Yu. Although she was pregnant, her figure was plump and beautiful, and her face was even more delicate due to embarrassment, which made people feel affectionate.
I couldn't help but feel a little irritated in my heart.
"It doesn't matter, Wei doesn't care."
Xue Yu was just thinking that Wei Jingchen was leaving the kitchen, but she felt the man's gaze staring straight at her, as if it was glued to her, leaving her speechless.
Xue Yu frowned slightly and said softly, "Thank you so much, Mr. Wei. The kitchen is a dirty place. I'm afraid it will stain Mr. Wei's body."
Seeing that she couldn't wait to find a reason to let him out, Wei Jingchen snorted in his heart and said righteously, "Mr. Jiang is Wei's savior, Mrs. Jiang is pregnant, and Dr. Jiang is not here now, so Wei must Take care of one or two.”
Xue Yu didn't know how to refute for a while.
I heard him say again, "If it's inconvenient for Mrs. Jiang, why don't you call Wei?"
Xue Yu blinked. Although she didn't know Mr. Wei's identity, she also knew that he could give out three thousand taels of silver without hesitation. His status must be noble and extraordinary, which was not comparable to that of a peasant woman like her.
How can she give orders?
Moreover, she had asked Mr. Wei to find her husband yesterday, so naturally she would not ask him for help.
Wei Jingchen didn't wait for Xue Yu to speak, took the firewood from her hand, threw it into the stove, and soon a fire started.
When Xue Yu heard the sound of the flames jumping, she didn't know what to say. She pursed her lips and started cooking.
During the process, although Wei Jingchen didn't know how to cook, he was very crisp and clear in his attack.
He seemed to know what she wanted, and handed it to her without her having to ask.
Except for the kitchen knife.
It can be said that Wei Jingchen cut this dish himself.
Xue Yu listened to the banging sound on the chopping board. Even though she couldn't see it, she could still imagine how the dishes looked like being messed up.
After making a few simple dishes, it was served with a bowl of japonica rice.
The two ran out quickly.
The air was extremely silent, speechless.
Xue Yu was a little restless, and after thinking about it, she slowly stood up and saluted Wei Jingchen briefly.
"Mr. Wei, I'm a little tired. Let's go back to the house first."
Wei Jingchen didn't seem to notice the woman's discomfort and said politely, "Mrs. Jiang, be careful."
After Xue Yu returned to the house, she closed the door, cutting off the sunlight that spilled in from outside, and seemed to also intercept the vague line of sight.
My back suddenly felt a little relaxed, and my expression became a little lighter.
Although the man was gentle to her and did not go beyond her in any way, the pressure on him was difficult to shake off, and there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Xue Yu's heart trembled.
Especially when she is alone with a man and his husband is not around.
Wei Jingchen sat upright with a cold expression, recalling the scene where the woman just now saluted him politely and distantly.
It seems that he is just an ordinary man.
"Yunjian."
Soon a figure appeared beside Wei Jingchen.
Yun Jian cupped his hand and said, "Your Highness, what do you want to tell your subordinates?"
The man's eyes were dark, and there were a few wisps of deep anger, "Yun Jian, you go to do something immediately and lead the people in Xiaohe Village to discover Jiang Xuze's body..."
