"Looking at your face turning red, why don't I go and pierce the window paper, maybe we will have a wedding banquet soon." The second daughter-in-law said with a smile.
Cuihua's face was red to the root of her neck, and she said angrily and embarrassedly: "Sister Yulan, you still said, you also said, I will ignore you."
"Hehehe——." The people at the table laughed.
The longevity wine was eaten until very late, and everyone dispersed...
Ling Jiyun supported Gardenia and walked toward that dim spot. Gardenia didn't want to ask him if he liked his current life, but she was afraid that if he asked, he would bring up some topics that would ruin the current atmosphere.
"Gardenia, are you happy?" Gardenia didn't speak, but he asked.
Gardenia softened her eyes and said calmly: "I am very happy to have you with me and my children to accompany me."
He tightened her hand and said, "As long as you are happy." Something flashed in his eyes. It was too dark in the night for no one to see clearly.
Back home, Gardenia lay on the bed first, while Ling Jiyun fed Tiang Qing in the yard.
After a while, he entered the house and saw Gardenia gently caressing her swollen belly, her face filled with maternal tenderness. She sat on the edge of the bed, attached her ear to her belly and listened quietly, then raised her eyes and said, "Gardenia"
Son, when will our child be born?"
Gardenia clapped her fingers and said, "It should be when the rice is ripe."
"Then I'm going to be a father soon?"
Gardenia said: "Does your husband like a boy or a girl?"
Ling Jiyun said: "As long as it is our child, I like both boys and girls."
Gardenia smiled silently, and Ling Jiyun asked again: "Will giving birth be painful?"
Smoothing his slightly frowned eyebrows, Gardenia said softly: "I'm a doctor, so I'm not afraid." Of course she knew the pain and couldn't make him worry now.
Ling Jiyun didn't know what to say. Even if she was a doctor and a woman at the same time, would a doctor's birth be any different from other women's birth?
Time flies like an arrow. In a blink of an eye, the first ten months have passed and the seedlings in the field are already heading.
On the green mountain path, a fast horse trampled through the silent hills, passing by like the wind, heading towards the small village...
When she woke up early in the morning, Gardenia noticed that her eyelids were twitching, and she rubbed them gently. Could it be that she didn't get a good rest last night? She was about to pick up her needle and thread to mend Ling Jiyun's sleeves that were torn from branches when she went to the mountains to cheer for firewood the day before, but she heard
There was a loud shout outside the door: "Gardenia mother, Gardenia mother."
The voice belonged to the second daughter-in-law, why were you so anxious? Put down the sewing basket, supported your waist with one hand and walked out, saying, "Sister Yulan, what's wrong?"
The second daughter-in-law handed the child in her arms to Gardenia and said in a tearful voice: "Gardenia, look at why this child has some little red spots on it?"
Gardenia untied his clothes, looked at the little red dots carefully, pulled the pulse again, and then smiled and said: "Sister Yulan, don't worry, the child is fine. You dressed him too much and covered it up."
It’s a rash.”
"Then what should we do?" the second daughter-in-law said anxiously.
Gardenia said: "You go back, chop some ginger into pieces and make juice, apply it on the affected area, and it will be cured soon."
The second daughter-in-law breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you so much, Gardenia, it really scared me to death."
"fine."
"Why are you the only one at home? Where is Ling Yun?"
"He went fishing by the river." Gardenia couldn't help but laugh when she thought about the way he vowed to catch a basket of fish before going out.
The second daughter-in-law said: "Then I'll go back, you can do your work first."
"Okay, Sister Yulan, walk slowly." Gardenia walked her to the door.
"Okay, hold on to your belly and don't give it away."
Gardenia stood at the door and waved to her. She would be so worried when she had a child. Did she worry about herself like this before?
Along the bend of the river, aquatic plants wander leisurely with the slow flow of water. They want to go with the water, but they are unable to do so because of their deep roots.
Ling Jiyun wore a bamboo hat and sat on a stone slab, like a fisherman. There was a dragonfly on the bamboo joint of the fishing rod in his hand. The vertical fishing line went deep into the river, and the buoy made of goose feathers rippled on the river surface, quietly.
Waiting for the baited fish to be pulled into the river.
Sanzhu was downstream three ridges away from him. He turned around and looked at Ling Jiyun. How could he catch fish so quickly when he just sat down?
Suddenly an arc flashed across the river, and a small hole instantly opened in the river. The dragonfly flew away again. Ling Jiyun said without looking back: "You scared away my fish."
The voice behind him replied: "You only saw the fish? Didn't there also be dragonflies on your fishing rod?"
"You're here -" Ling Jiyun still didn't look back, but there was a hint of sadness in his protracted tone.
The visitor walked up to him, looked at the flowing river, and sighed: "Do you think I came early or late?"
"You have a sense of propriety in what you do. It's definitely the right time to show up."
The visitor also sat on the stone slab, and the soil under his feet slipped a little and fell into the river, making a "dong" sound. "You are so comfortable, you came here to hide and relax, and threw such a big stall to me."
Ling Jiyun remained silent and continued to stare at the fish mark floating on the river.
The visitor continued: "But I really didn't expect that you would come to this village." This village was accidentally discovered by Ling Jiyun and Feng Qing when they first came to the border town to inspect the terrain. Feng Qing made a joke at that time:
If we could let go of everything, it would be a blessing to live here leisurely for the rest of our lives. Ling Jiyun heard this and just sneered indifferently.
"When did you know I was here? Master, did you know?"
Feng Qing raised his legs and said: "I discovered it more than twenty days ago. In order to let you live a comfortable life for a few more days, I came to see you now. Don't worry. If the master knew about it, I'm afraid you would have returned to the border town to take charge of the overall situation."
Already."
"What's the situation outside now?"
Feng Qing stared at him sideways. At this time, Ling Jiyun regained his sharp eyes. Although he was dressed in coarse cloth, he still could not block his innate majesty and domineering. "Thank you, you
My dear brother, you have successfully taken back four cities after you left. Now my soldiers are so panic-stricken that they are almost defeated."
The fishing rod was trembling obviously. How could he just give back what he finally got back? "You just let him take it back easily?"
Feng Qing helplessly hit his head with a jade fan and said, "Without you, the morale of the army is unstable, and there is nothing I can do about it."
The buoy moved, I raised the fishing rod lightly, and a fish jumped out of the water with its tail swinging. I took it out and put it into the fish basket, then replaced it with fish food and dropped the hook into the river.
Feng Qing smiled and said, "You're very skilled. I've never seen you catch fish before."
Ling Jiyun put away his fierceness, his deep eyes were filled with tenderness, and he smiled and said, "I promised Gardenia that I would catch a basket of fish for her today."
Feng Qing shook his head and said: "That's not easy. As long as you use your luck, won't all the fish in the river float up?"
She glared at him and said angrily: "I want live fish. If I take the dead fish home, Gardenia can tell at a glance that I lied to her."
