He was very familiar with all of Ye Qinglan's expressions. The polite and indifferent smile, the distant and guarded sneer, the pretentious sweet smile... But at this moment, her smile was bright and brilliant, which she only had when she was in a really happy mood.
of pleasure.
It was indeed the right decision to let her meet Meng Zijun. The worries that had been bothering her for a few days were all put aside...
Gu Xinian suppressed the trace of sourness in his heart and started chatting with Meng Zijun as if nothing had happened.
Zheng Junyan was caught in the middle, looking at Meng Zijun's hearty smile, and then looking at Gu Xinian's easy-going and friendly smile, the weird feeling of disobedience lingered in his heart. Aren't they two love rivals who hate each other?
?What’s going on with this happy meeting now?
Ye Qinglan was also looking at the two of them quietly, feeling soft and sour in her heart.
Is there any other reason for two people who don't like each other to look at each other and smile happily? Both of them clearly feel sorry for her and don't want her to be caught in a dilemma...
In the following time, Ye Qinglan and Meng Zijun no longer had the opportunity to be alone.
Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan had not seen each other for a long time, and they had endless things to talk about. Under such circumstances, time passed quickly. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, it was approaching evening. It was time to return home.
Ye Qingning reluctantly held Ye Qinglan's hand: "When you have time in the future, you must come and see me."
Ye Qinglan was also full of reluctance, but said with a smile: "When you give birth to a big fat boy, I will definitely come to accompany you every day."
Ye Qingning was amused and laughed. He glanced at Gu Xiyu who was not far away, lowered his voice and asked, "I haven't had time to ask you yet! How is the marriage between cousin Xiyu and Shen Chang'an?"
"She is willing to do so, and the elders in the family have no objections." Ye Qinglan laughed softly: "Even though he still insisted on opposing it, his attitude was much softer than before. Fortunately, sister Xiyu is only sixteen years old.
, based on my parents-in-law’s wishes, I might as well stay for another one or two years before getting married. Therefore, the marriage has been put on hold for the time being.”
Ye Qingning felt relieved and stopped asking further questions.
Her mood was completely different when she came out and when she returned. Ye Qinglan seemed particularly relaxed and happy. After returning home, she went to Shunyi Hall to pay her respects as usual. Since the news from the palace came out, Sun's mood has finally become much better.
Ye Qinglan was no longer so picky. However, she was definitely not amiable. She asked a few questions lightly and did not leave any food.
When I arrived at Jingxinyuan, the treatment was completely different.
Mrs. Zheng asked gently and kindly about the trivial matters of being a guest in Zheng Guogong's mansion. Ye Qinglan was naturally full of good things. Mrs. Zheng was very happy to hear this: "Okay, okay, after all, we are Xinian's maternal family, we can't be alienated. In the court
We, the women, have no control over the matter. Just move when you need to."
This alone is different from the Sun family. Because of Concubine Zheng and the third prince, the Sun family does not like Zheng Guogong's mansion, and she also disapproves of their behavior as guests. But from the bottom of her heart, Mrs. Zheng,
But I hope they can get closer to the Zheng family.
Ye Qinglan responded with a smile.
Mrs. Zheng smiled and asked Gu Xiyu again: "Yu'er, did you have fun today?"
Gu Xiyu nodded repeatedly and said with a longing look on her face: "There is a little baby living in my cousin's belly. If you touch her belly, the baby will still move!"
In fact, Gu Xiyu has never been very fond of crying and fussy children. But today, touching Ye Qingning's big belly was a novel and rare experience for Gu Xiyu. Suddenly, it felt like it was a good thing to have someone around her who was pregnant.
It was rare to see Gu Xi's happy face with dancing eyebrows. Mrs. Zheng was in a very good mood and couldn't help but smile and said: "When your sister-in-law becomes pregnant, we will also have a baby at home."
Gu Xiyu's eyes lit up and she looked at Ye Qinglan expectantly: "Sister-in-law, when will you be pregnant with the baby?"
Ye Qinglan: "..."
Gu Xinian casually interjected: "This kind of thing is not something your sister-in-law can do alone. If you want to conceive a baby, your elder brother will have to work harder."
Gu Xiyu immediately warned her seriously: "Brother, please don't be lazy. You must work harder. My sister-in-law will be able to have a baby sooner."
Ye Qinglan: "..."
Gu Xinian tried hard to hold back his laughter and nodded seriously. Mrs. Zheng turned her head to the side and snickered. Looking at Ye Qinglan again, her face was so red that she was almost steaming with heat.
Ye Qinglan took advantage of Gu Xiyu and Mrs. Zheng not paying attention and glared at Gu Xinian.
Gu was so thick-skinned that he didn't take this seriously at all. Instead, he blinked ambiguously at Ye Qinglan.
The young couple's glances fell into Mrs. Zheng's eyes, and she felt extremely relieved. Compared with the deserted and indifferent mood of the past few years, Gu Xinian now laughs and gets angry, has more fireworks, and has become more real.
. Moreover, it is always a good thing for a young couple to have a good relationship. Maybe she will be able to have a grandson soon...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zheng smiled and said to Ye Qinglan: "It is inevitable for a new daughter-in-law to be thin-skinned and embarrassed, but what Yu'er just said makes sense. If you could get pregnant earlier and give birth to a fair and fat boy,
Always a good thing.”
This is the first time that Mrs. Zheng has brought the topic of pregnancy to the table.
Looking at her expectant mother-in-law, Ye Qinglan found that she couldn't even say a word, so she could only respond with a shy expression.
Mrs. Zheng was filled with great joy, and her eyes moved around Ye Qinglan's belly. Her eyes were extremely soft.
Ye Qinglan's originally unsteady mind was shaken again. Perhaps, she could really start to consider having a child...
With their thoughts in mind, they ate dinner absent-mindedly. After returning to Izumo-ken, the two of them went to the clean room to take a bath. After returning to the house, the maids wisely withdrew, leaving the time and space to be alone.
This couple.
Seeing that she was still careless, Gu Xinian couldn't help teasingly saying, "You must have been thinking about pregnancy, right?"
Ye Qinglan unexpectedly nodded, with a serious expression: "To tell you the truth! I actually don't want to get pregnant and have children early. In our place, women only get married and have children in their twenties. I just now
At the age of fifteen, my body is not fully developed yet, so it is too early to have a child. However, my mother-in-law seems to be hoping that I can get pregnant as soon as possible. She probably thinks that you are already quite old, but you don’t have any children yet..."
The narrow-minded Gu Mou snorted: "I'm only twenty-three years old, and I'm in my prime, so how old am I?" After saying that, he looked over with a half-smile: "Still, you think I'm older than you?
Eight is too old?”
There was a smile in Ye Qinglan's eyes, and she deliberately sighed: "It's not the first day I knew you were so much older than me. Now that we're married, it's too late to regret it."
Gu Xinian glanced sideways at her, and the sourness in his tone almost overflowed: "Compared to me, Meng Zijun is much younger."
Ye Qinglan raised the corners of her lips and continued to agree: "Yes, he is only two years older than me. If we talk about age, he is better matched than you."
...Gu Mou's handsome face was half darkened, and he snorted in a moderate tone.
The smile in Ye Qinglan's eyes was so obvious that she almost laughed out loud. Gu Xinian was never willing to admit that he was petty and immediately changed the subject: "You are in a much better mood today than the past few days."
"Yes!" Ye Qinglan happily confessed: "After meeting Zijun, I feel much better. I have figured out a lot of things and I won't get into trouble anymore."
Sure enough, it's all because of Meng Zijun...
Gu Xinian felt sour in his heart, but he pretended to be generous on his face: "It's good if you can figure it out." After a pause, he finally couldn't help but ask: "What did he tell you?
Already?"
Ye Qinglan smiled casually: "I didn't say anything. He just asked me if I would like to fly far away with him and live a quiet and leisurely life in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters."
... Gu Xinian's face turned completely dark, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What a good Meng Zijun! I will go to the Ministry of Punishment to settle the score with him tomorrow!"
Ye Qinglan couldn't hold it back and finally laughed out loud. The laughter was brisk and clear, echoing crisply in the room.
Gu Xinian was so embarrassed that he became angry: "Thank you for laughing! Tell me honestly, did he really say these words? Or did you deliberately make them up to deceive me?"
Ye Qinglan barely held back her laughter and said seriously: "He did say these things." Before Gu Xinian's face turned completely gloomy, he quickly added: "However, I refused immediately."
Gu Xinian's face softened slightly.
"This place is indeed different from my old world." Ye Qinglan had a faint smile on her lips, and her eyes were gentle and calm: "On many things, you and I have different views and ideas. If you are with Meng Zijun, it will really be different."
There will be troubles in this regard. The world we live in does not particularly care about a woman's chastity. People who get married and divorced, what you call divorce, are everywhere, but they still fall in love and get married. I know very well,
Meng Zijun said this to me sincerely. He will never mind that I have married someone, and he will still treat me well..."
Gu Xinian's face was so ugly that it went beyond the scope of various adjectives.
Ye Qinglan was not afraid at all, and even walked forward with a smile, stretched out her arms, hugged his stiff waist, and put her head on his chest: "But, I didn't think about anything at the time, and refused without hesitation.
he."
His stiff body suddenly softened.
Ye Qinglan's soft voice came from her chest: "Gu Xinian, although I still don't like this environment, I don't like this kind of conspiracy, I don't like the way people's lives are treated lightly. But, I like you. I am willing to face it with you.
In spite of all difficulties, I am willing to join hands with you until we grow old."
Gu Xinian's chest rose and fell violently a few times, and then he hugged her hard. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is mine.
