When everyone heard Lu Xingping's call, they shook their heads as usual, and sat down in their respective seats with calm faces, continuing to eat snacks and drink tea, while watching the grandfather and grandson put on a big show of chasing each other.
Lu Xingping already had great skills and was very clever. As long as he didn't want Wang Xuelan to catch up, Wang Xuelan couldn't even touch the corners of his clothes.
After running back and forth for a few times, I was too tired to run anymore, so Wang Xuelan came back and sat down to rest.
But he was still cursing.
"That brat, I'm afraid he was a loach in his last life. He was very slippery."
Lu Tiesheng handed her a cup of tea.
"Why do you think you are so ignorant as a child?"
Wang Xuelan rolled her eyes and ignored him.
…
In the evening, Lu Xinghe returned home.
As soon as he entered the door, he took Chu Yue into his arms, and his warm palms gently rubbed Chu Yue's lower abdomen.
"The child didn't make trouble for you today, did he?"
In the first two months, when Chu Yue suffered from severe morning sickness, she would vomit whatever she ate, and her body became very thin. It was only in the past half month that her condition improved slightly and she started to look better.
At that time, he saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, wishing he could bear this sin on her behalf.
Chu Yue's small hand covered Lu Xinghe's big palm.
"The child is very well-behaved, sir. Master is here today. He said that I am probably carrying twins."
"Twins?"
Lu Xinghe looked at Chu Yue's lower abdomen with obvious worry in his eyes. After all, he had watched helplessly how difficult it was for Yun Cuihe to have a healthy baby at that time.
Chu Yue looked at his expression, smiled slightly and held his hand.
"My husband, don't worry. Master said that he will move to the house to live with us in a few days. As long as Haosheng pays attention, nothing will happen to him."
Lu Xinghe hummed.
"I will find someone to inquire about Po Wen, and try to find a few experienced ones to raise her in the house in advance to avoid chaos when needed."
Chu Yue nodded and leaned her head against his broad chest, feeling relieved.
"You can find it slowly, there's no rush for now."
…
At the end of May, Wu Yong returned to Beijing from Jiangnan to report on his duties. Seeing that he was of marriageable age, the emperor temporarily stayed in the capital and proposed to marry Jiang Ruoqian, the second daughter of the Minister of Rites.
Chu Yue was also very happy to learn that the emperor had given Jiang Ruoqian a marriage to Wu Yong. She had been in contact with Jiang Ruoqian. Although they were not very close, after all, they came from the family of the Minister of Etiquette, and they were truly pampered. The grown-up daughter has a very good character.
I just don’t know if such a delicate flower is willing to marry a rough man like Wu Yong.
For Wu Yong's marriage, Chu Yue also made a special trip to the medical clinic to find Wu Xiuwen and Liu, and gave them some instructions. She also sent two nuns who were familiar with wedding banquets in the capital to help them arrange their marriage.
It is precisely because of this that many mistakes are avoided.
All the specifications of the wedding were of medium to high level, which would neither be shabby nor too eye-catching.
As for the necessary expenses, although Wu Yong had a 30% dividend from the glass business, time was still short and he had a large group of soldiers to support. Before Chu Yue got married, he had almost emptied his only family property. Therefore, We don't have much money either.
On the grounds of supporting her brother, Chu Yue sent a lot of things for emergency use.
…
Jiang Ruoqian was a talented girl in the capital, and her piano skills were outstanding. When the Minister of Rites and his family trained her, they naturally spent a lot of money, but they did not expect that the emperor would marry her to a general who had no foundation.
Whether it was the sense of superiority that civil servants had from ancient times to the present, or Wu Yong's rural background, and his shallow foundation in the capital, he was looked down upon by real aristocratic families.
But now that the imperial edict has been issued, although the Jiang family is unwilling to do so, they do not dare to disobey the imperial edict.
After completing the Three Books and Six Rites and dealing with Wu Yong many times, the Minister of Rites gradually had some changes in his view of him.
Although the rules of the Wu Mansion are not strict, he is not a reckless man who only knows how to wield swords and guns. Moreover, looking at this posture, Princess Heyue seems to value her sworn brother.
Although Princess Heyue also comes from the countryside, she is very good at business and has properties all over the Nanyuan Kingdom. Furthermore, her own medical skills and the power behind her cannot be underestimated.
Thinking about it this way, Wu Yong seems to be a good son-in-law. Besides, he is still young and has unlimited possibilities in the future.
…
The wedding is scheduled for May 20th.
Wu Yong originally thought that Jiang Ruoqian would not be willing to marry him, but on the wedding day, she cooperated with him to complete the wedding ceremony and was sent to the bridal chamber.
Like all newly married brides, the moment he lifted his hijab, what caught his eye was his shy face.
The cloud bun is tall and the eyebrows are shaped like a moon, which is gentle and graceful, charming and charming.
Seeing her look like this, Wu Yong was stunned for a moment.
"I thought Miss Jiang didn't want to marry me." After a moment of silence, Wu Yong spoke first.
He originally did not want to get married, but even though His Majesty granted marriage, he could not disobey the imperial edict.
It's just that everything must be done on a first-come, first-served basis. In the past twenty years, he had only held one person in his heart. It is indeed not that easy to change now.
Jiang Ruoqian lowered his eyebrows.
"Why would your husband say that?"
She has a nice voice and speaks in a gentle and gentle manner.
"I was born in a rural area, and I have been free-spirited since I was a child. When I first entered the capital, I don't have a strong foundation. Miss Jiang, I really wronged you by marrying me." Wu Yong said softly.
Jiang Ruoqian covered her mouth and smiled, then raised her eyes to look at him.
"Your Majesty grants marriage. Neither my husband nor I have a choice, right? As long as I don't feel wronged, my husband doesn't have to think that I will be wronged."
She stood up and stared at him.
"I know that there are other women in my husband's heart. Since ancient times, it has been common for men to have three wives and four concubines. I will not force my husband to only have me in his heart."
No woman likes to share her husband with other women, but if Wu Yong does this, she will guard her heart.
Wu Yong looked at her in surprise.
"How did you know..."
"intuition."
Jiang Ruoqian came to the table, picked up the quilted wine, and handed one of the glasses in the direction of Wu Yong, with a generous expression and not the slightest hint of shyness.
"Husband, it's time to drink some wine."
Taking the wine glass, Wu Yong looked at her.
"I come from the countryside and have never had the idea of taking a concubine. Now that I marry you, I will be responsible for you. From now on, there will only be you in this house. However, it will take me some time to adapt."
Jiang Ruo smiled slightly and raised the wine glass in his hand.
"I can wait, but I hope my husband won't make me wait too long."
"good."
After saying that, he and Jiang Ruoqian drank the quilt wine.
That night, although the two slept in the same room, they did nothing. Jiang Ruoqian slept inside the bed and Wu Yong slept outside the bed. The two did not even have physical contact.
