Qi Changyan's eyes darkened, and his black eyes fixed on her. How long had she been here and she was already thinking about going home?
And her belly... His eyes glanced at her bulging belly, and his eyebrows visibly frowned.
But he didn't want her to think that he didn't want her to go home. Why wouldn't he? Now it seems that there is no difference whether she is here or not.
Qi Changyan just looked at her and asked her to think about it, "You are pregnant and may not be able to travel for a long time."
Yanyang looked at her belly when she heard this.
Then he raised his eyes again and said, "Nothing, the month is not too big, and you shouldn't sit and lie down all day long when you are pregnant. You might as well move more."
"It's only over six months now, so it doesn't hinder travel. When I come back during the winter solstice, my belly will be bigger, and it will be difficult to go home to see my parents at that time."
After listening to her two words, Qi Changyan understood that she was determined to go.
Wu Sheng twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Well, that's fine, go ahead."
After saying that, his eyes returned to the roll on the table. Yan Yang could only see the straight bridge of his nose after slightly retracting his chin, and his crowned forehead.
"Also, say hello to my father-in-law and my mother-in-law." Suddenly, he raised his eyes and added another sentence.
What Qi Changyan was thinking was that this was her first time back since she came here, so she should say hello to her father-in-law and mother-in-law.
He couldn't spare the time to go back with her.
There was only one day off during the winter solstice, and the trip back to the Lin family's old house took almost a whole day. How could he have the time to go back with her.
Yanyang nodded, "Okay."
After that, she returned to the main room without disturbing him.
Xu Ji came in shortly after she left, and then went out again.
But when he was about to go out, he heard the adult behind him say: "Wait a moment."
Xu Ji stopped and turned around to obey the order again.
Qi Changyan told him that of course something was wrong. He had forgotten to tell Yan Yang just now, but now he told Xu Ji the same thing.
"Go and buy some winter solstice gifts tomorrow, and ask Yanyang to take them back with you on the ninth day of the lunar month."
Xu Ji: "...Yes."
In due course, the face was completely unexpected.
I almost frowned. Madam is going back to the Lin family during the winter solstice? Doesn’t the adult want to live alone again?
The Lord has spent the winter solstice alone for several years, and it was always deserted. This year she came over, and he thought it would be more lively... As a result, Madam actually wanted to go back to the Lin family on this day.
Xu Ji's mouth twitched.
On Yanyang's side, after talking to Qi Changyan, she started to prepare things. She was getting ready and unknowingly prepared a box of clothes.
At this time, she had not realized that these clothes were too much for just a few days. Occasionally, Grandma Li took a second look and said in surprise, "You are only going for a few days, why do you prepare so many clothes?"
Yanyang's hand was beaten.
After a pause, he said: "Well, it's a bit too much. Let's take out a few pieces. Just have a few that can be changed."
After saying that, she left her grandma here to help her count her clothes again, and then returned to the house alone.
After returning to the house and sitting down, I sat back and was absent-minded. She knew very well that deep down in her heart she actually wanted to stay at home for a longer time, but now she felt a little bored staying here and wanted to take some time to relax.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath.
The fourth day of November.
Yanyang saw Xu Ji bringing several large bags of things with him after nightfall.
Yanyang: "This is it?"
Xu Ji handed over his hand and said, "Madam, this is the winter solstice gift that the second master asked his subordinates to buy for you to take back with you on the ninth day of the lunar month."
In this way... Yanyang nodded, "Okay, he is interested."
Xu Ji thought that his master did have intentions, but his wife... Xu Ji sighed.
After that, he waited for Nanny Li to take the things from his hand and did not step back immediately. Instead, he raised his eyes and looked at the madam, but hesitated to speak.
Yanyang saw that he had something to say, so he waved away the rest of the crowd and said, "Say it."
Xu Ji: "Madam, once you leave, I'm afraid this year's Winter Solstice will be deserted again..."
It's better not to go back and just have the Winter Solstice gift sent back to the Lin family.
Yanyang was silent, and after a while, she looked at him and smiled lightly, "No, Ji'an and Shaoshu are both here. The two of them love to play around, so he won't mind getting a headache from the noise. "
Xu Ji: "..."
Yan Yang ignored his expression and still smiled, "By the way, have you prepared the gifts from Beijing? It's time to send someone to Beijing to deliver them immediately. Don't turn back and miss the Winter Solstice festival."
Xu Ji: "...not yet." Your Excellency never sent these gifts in previous years, so you didn't mention it at all this year.
Yanyang nodded, "That doesn't matter. I've already sent someone to buy it. You can send someone to Beijing early tomorrow morning to make it faster."
"Yes." Xu Ji sighed and stepped back.
After retreating, he returned to the adults and casually mentioned that Madam had said that she would send the Boxing Gift to the Duke's Mansion in the capital.
After Qi Changyan heard this, he glanced at Xu Ji once or twice.
After that, he pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "...Well, I really should send one home."
He had completely forgotten about this incident.
"You go buy another one and send it back to Beijing together with the one prepared by Yan Yang tomorrow."
"yes."
It was the eighth day of November, the day before Yan Yang went back.
Unfortunately, Yanyang caught a cold last night.
Fortunately, it was not a serious illness, just some lethargy, plus some discomfort that could almost be ignored, and it would not delay her return home.
But Grandma Li was very worried, "How many days will it take for you to go back?"
I just caught a cold and will be on my way tomorrow. It won't get worse until I get back to Lin's house.
Yanyang: "No need. Just prepare more charcoal fire in the carriage tomorrow. I'll dress warmer and I won't catch a cold again."
Aunt Li went down and asked someone to make the carriage warmer.
The thing that Yan Yang couldn't let go of when he returned home this time was his two children, so after saying this, he repeatedly asked his mother, "You should take good care of Shaoshu and Ji'an during the days when I'm home, and don't let them get sick." .”
Aunt Li nodded, "Don't worry, I will take good care of you."
Yanyang was worried about her, otherwise she wouldn't have been left to look after Shaoshu and Ji'an. He nodded, and then went back to the bed to rest sleepily. Every time he caught a cold, he just wanted to sleep. This sleep came directly into the night, I don’t know what time it was.
When I opened my eyes, I woke up and felt that there seemed to be a black shadow in front of me.
Startled, she exclaimed, "Who's there?"
"I."
It was this sound that came out, and then Yan Yang saw the black shadow suddenly approaching, and suddenly someone hugged her waist, and she flew away. Yanyang was not frightened this time because she was stunned.
It seems like I haven't been in this embrace for a long time.
She blinked, and in the blink of an eye the two of them were lying opposite each other.
He was still half-hugging her, and in this position the man's breath was on the top of her hair, and Yanyang could smell the faint smell of alcohol.
It turned out to be drinking.
