The day before New Year's Eve, the Shen family also arrived in the capital.
Mrs. Zhang got off the carriage carrying large and small bags. She looked at the Shen family's house and the servants in the yard, her face was a little reserved and she couldn't move her feet.
"Old madam, I will hold it for you."
Zhu Kuan was a very discerning man, and without waiting for his master's instructions, he quickly stepped forward to help the Shen family move their things.
"No, no, I can just get it myself..."
However, before Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, the things in her hands were taken over by Zhu Kuan. With him as a demonstration, the maids and servants behind also started to move. The Shen family's things were helped to carry away, while Jiang Miao and Shen Yanqing also came out to greet him.
"My parents, brothers, sisters-in-law are finally here. Did you have a hard journey along the way?"
Jiang Miao held Granny Zhang's hand. Even after being separated for half a year, they still remained close to each other.
"How hard can it be to ride in a car? Mom hasn't seen you in the past six months, why have you lost weight? Isn't it because the third child treats you so harshly?"
Mrs. Zhang looked at her little face and frowned tightly. Miaoya's face was obviously still stained with baby fat when they left Zhenjiang Mansion. Now her face has become thinner, and it hurts to look at her. Mrs. Zhang He held her hand and gave Shen Yanqing a hard look.
This son is just unreliable and can't even take care of his wife.
Shen Yanqing touched his nose and did not dare to refute at all. He also wanted Miao Ya to gain weight, but he had not eaten less in the past six months. Jiang Miao was indeed getting thinner and thinner. He felt very distressed when he saw it.
"Mom, don't blame my husband. I've grown taller. Look, I grew taller half a year ago."
She will be 18 years old, and she is probably in the final stage of growth. Although she eats a lot, she eats food quickly and only grows taller but not fat. Jiang Miao is still very satisfied with her figure. Her small face is delicate and charming. , but the body does not look dry.
"Really, this guy is half a head taller than me."
As soon as Jiang Miao said that, Mrs. Zhang also reacted and felt relieved knowing that Miao Ya had not been wronged in the capital.
"This house is really nice. Although it is much smaller than the county government office in Zhenjiang Prefecture, it is enough for a family to live in."
Moreover, there are more than a dozen servants serving him, so he really looks like an official.
Mrs. Xu hugged Erya and looked around with envy on her face.
The third son's family is still blessed with good fortune. Following the third son, he became the wife of an official. He never suffered any hardships when he was a girl. Now he is waiting to enjoy happiness. Even though Mr. Xu has become more generous now, he can't help but feel a little bit disgusted.
She couldn't rely on Shen Lao Er to become an official's wife. She could only hope to give birth to a fat boy, and send him to study in the future. Like Lao San, she would be the top scholar in the exam, so that she could enjoy the blessing of a son.
Mrs. Xu's eyes rolled around, and while Mrs. Zhang entered the room, she walked up behind Jiang Miao and asked her in a low voice.
"Miaoya, you must have known a lot of people since you have been in the capital for so long. Please help my sister-in-law to ask who has a home remedy for giving birth to a son..."
Mrs. Xu was stunned when she wanted to have a son. It had been almost two years since she gave birth to Erya, and there was still no movement in her belly. If Shen Lao Er was not anxious, she would be dying of anxiety. The doctors, big and small, had looked at it, but nothing could be found. Problem.
Jiang Miao was a little speechless. She was a sister-in-law who was good at everything, but she favored boys over girls. She wished she had two sweet and sweet little girls. Looking at the pink and white dumplings in Xu's arms, Jiang Miao felt more and more that Xu was with her. I don’t know the blessings among the blessings.
"This... I don't go out very often. Even if there is a prescription like this, others are using it. I'm afraid I won't be able to help my sister-in-law."
Erya was nestled in Mrs. Xu's arms, staring at her with a pair of big black and bright eyes. She put her little hand in her mouth and sucked it. Two bunches of hair were tied into two little chirps with a red headband. She was cute and adorable.
Jiang Miao knew that she still couldn't understand adults' speech, but she still couldn't bear to make the little girl sad.
"Sister-in-law, boys and girls are the same. Da Ya and Er Ya are so well-behaved and sensible. Are they not better than boys?"
"You are young and don't understand. This woman doesn't have a son by her side. She can't even stand upright in her husband's family. She will be looked down upon."
Mrs. Xu curled her lips, feeling that Jiang Miao was naive and did not look at how many young wives were kicked out because they could not give birth to a son.
"You have been married to the third child for so long, but there is still no movement in your stomach? The third child is now an official and will see more people in the future. You have to give him a big fat boy quickly to tie them up. This man loves to be young. He's beautiful, there are so many temptations out there, if you don't tie him up tightly, he might be seduced by some little goblin."
"Oh, he dares!"
Not to mention that they haven't consummated their marriage yet, even if she really can't give birth to a son, if Shen Yanqing dares to look at the woman outside, she will kick him immediately. Anyway, she has money and status, so she is not too rare to compete with others. cucumber.
Moreover, what happened to giving birth to a daughter? She was the only eldest princess, and she was not wronged.
Everyone in the Shen family is very open-minded, and I don’t know where Xu’s pedantic ideas came from. Even the serious and rigid Mrs. Zhang did not force her daughter-in-law to have a son, so Xu took the lead on her own.
"Hey, although my sister-in-law's words don't sound good, they are all for your own good. You have to keep a close eye on the third child. He is young, promising and good-looking now, and there are many women out there who are interested in him."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, my wife will only be Miaoya."
Shen Yanqing was originally waiting for Jiang Miao in the house. When she saw that no one came in, she went out to look for her. She never expected to hear what Xu said.
They have a good relationship as husband and wife, Miao Ya has always trusted him, and Shen Yanqing keeps a clean mind on himself, never going out to socialize, and giving no chance for others to pounce on him.
Jiang Miao suppressed her laughter. Shen Yanqing was worried by her sister-in-law that she was a heartless person. Her original anger disappeared and she stood aside to watch the fun.
Mrs. Xu was overheard when she said something small, and she felt a little embarrassed. She muttered for a long time, not knowing what to say, so she had to change the topic.
"Mom still has to pack her things, I'm going to help."
"Puch!"
After Mrs. Xu left, Jiang Miao couldn't help laughing anymore. Seeing Shen Yanqing's downcast face, her smile grew even bigger.
"Did you hear that? My sister-in-law is worried that you are messing around with women outside."
"Miaoya..."
Shen Yanqing squeezed her hand punitively, the expression on his face was more serious than ever.
"I won't do anything sorry to you. No one can look into my eyes except you. There will only be you here."
He took Jiang Miao's hand and pressed it on his heart. His heart was very small and could not tolerate other people.
Moreover, Shen Yanqing is very grateful for his current life. He likes to have Miaoya waiting for him when he comes home every day. The two are not only in harmony in life, but also in soul. He feels that Jiang Miao is a gift from God, and his baby is also Too late.
"Okay, smooth talker, if you really dare to betray me, then I will clap my hands and leave immediately. Anyway, my mother will not let me be wronged. When the time comes to make peace with you, I will raise a bunch of male pets... Well... …”
