Fu Zhao raised his hand to untie Chen Feng's cloak, "Why are you back so soon?"
Chen Feng lowered his head slightly, just in time to see Fu Zhao's tender fingers and smooth face.
His voice became gentler unconsciously, "Third brother is not in the house."
Fu Zhao raised his eyes and said, "Then you haven't had your dinner yet."
"Um."
The couple had dinner together.
*
Ms. He kept looking towards the door. As long as there was any movement in the yard, she would immediately stand up in surprise.
But when she saw that the maid made the noise, she couldn't hide her disappointment.
Will Chen Xin not come back to have dinner with her tonight?
Her personal maid drank the incense and knew best why Mr. He was disappointed.
Yin Xiang said, "Maybe I got caught up in something outside. Don't be too disappointed. Why don't you have dinner first?"
"How can I still have an appetite?" He frowned and had no appetite at all.
After her last miscarriage, she went back to her parents' house for a while. After she came back, she and Chen Xin became estranged unknowingly.
Every time she met Chen Xin, she wanted to have a good talk with him.
But for some reason, the two of them would break up on bad terms every time.
Counting the days, apart from Chen Feng's cleansing banquet yesterday, it had been a long time since she had sat down with Chen Xin and had a good meal.
No matter how much Yunxiang tried to persuade him, Mr. He refused to move his chopsticks.
Yin Xiang advised again: "Maybe I feel bad, after all, that is my child. You can't stay so depressed, otherwise I will be sad again when I see you like this."
"
There was confusion in He's eyes, "You mean, he will also be sad? For that child?"
After saying that, Mr. He himself didn't believe it.
After all, Chen Xin's attitude towards her during this period was really difficult for her to relate to being sad.
Seeing that Mr. He could listen to what he was saying, Yin Xiang nodded solemnly, "You are a fan of the authorities. I will not lie to you!"
Ms. He felt much more comfortable. Also, wasn't Chen Xin's abnormal behavior during this period just a sign of sadness for their child?
Mrs. He wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and smiled through her tears, "You are right, I am too obsessed and overthinking. You can have these dishes reheated and prepare midnight snacks in the small kitchen.
What if he comes back later and is hungry."
Seeing that Mr. He finally cheered up, Yunxiang went out happily.
At this time, Chen Xin had already forgotten everything about the Hou Mansion, and he only had eyes for the woman in front of him.
Especially since this woman still had his child in her belly, he showed tenderness that he had never seen before.
Yue Ji lowered her head and said shyly: "Master, what do you think I am doing? Is it because the dishes I prepared are not to your taste?"
"Of course not. I don't have much time with you every day, so I just want to see you more." Chen Xin said softly.
Yue Ji felt warm in her heart, leaned forward and rested her head on Chen Xin's shoulder.
When Chen Xin lowered his head, he could see Rose's bulging belly.
"It won't be long before our child comes out," Chen Xin said.
Although he had married a long time ago, this child was his first child, which was of great significance.
Yueji's eyes dimmed, "Master, when will you take me back to the Hou Mansion? It's okay for me to live outside, but this child is the blood of the Hou Mansion after all."
Although I live outside, no one is looking after me, so I feel very comfortable.
But Yueji had to think about the child in her belly. Children raised outside and children raised in the Marquis's mansion were ultimately different.
Chen Xin didn't think as much as Yue Ji. When he thought of He's face, he couldn't help but feel disgusted.
He had a jealous temperament. She had not given birth to a child for so many years and refused to let her aunt give birth to a child.
While Chen Xin's classmates and friends had many children, he still had no children.
Many people have also teased him, wondering if there is something wrong with him that is why he has not had a child for so long.
Thinking of those things, Chen Xin frowned severely.
He gently stroked Yue Ji's back and coaxed: "Don't worry about those things. Just give birth to the child with peace of mind."
Yueji is addicted to Chen Xin's tenderness. No matter what Chen Xin says at this moment, she will obediently comply.
Chen Xin stayed here until late at night before leaving.
Afraid that Mr. He would become suspicious, he did not dare to stay out at night.
Chen Xin left the house and got on his horse. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure hiding in the alley.
He hurriedly caught up, but saw nothing.
Could it be that he was dazzled?
He suppressed his doubts and continued to the Hou Mansion.
The next morning, as soon as Fu Zhao woke up, he couldn't help but frown fiercely.
Last night, Chen Feng struggled for a long time.
Chen Feng is like a leopard who has just tasted the sweetness, and is never satisfied no matter what.
Fu Zhao couldn't help but sigh. There was a lot of noise last night. I wonder if those maids heard it.
Looking around him again, Chen Feng looked as if he didn't know he was tired. He got up early and went to do morning exercises again.
It seems that every time, she is the only one who is tired.
After thinking for a while, Fu Zhao called the maid in and helped her get up.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, there are really a lot of things to be busy with.
Moreover, as a new daughter-in-law, Fu Zhao had to be even more careful in the first year.
After having breakfast, Fu Zhao looked at the prepared gift list.
When Chen Feng returned from sword practice, he happened to see Fu Zhao's serious profile.
Fu Zhao was sitting by the window, and the sunlight shone on Fu Zhao's face through the thin window paper, making Fu Zhao's already gentle facial features more refined.
Chen Feng waved his hand to stop Liosui who wanted to salute him.
Liangsui understood and went out silently.
Fu Zhao only felt a large shadow falling in front of her. She raised her head and suddenly saw a person sitting opposite her, and was startled.
Chen Feng smiled slightly, "Why are you so fascinated?"
Fu Zhao lightly glared at Chen Feng and said angrily: "No matter what I'm looking at, if someone suddenly appears when I look up, anyone will be shocked."
Chen Feng reached out and pinched Fu Zhao's cheek, "I scared you because of my lack of consideration."
Unexpectedly, Chen Feng would admit his mistake to him. Now it was Fu Zhao's turn to be at a loss.
"I don't blame you." Fu Zhao mumbled.
Fu Zhao was still very reserved in front of him.
Chen Feng's smile faded a little, and he turned to talk about other things.
"There are many soldiers who came back with me this time. They have followed me through life and death, and I have to prepare another holiday gift for them. It will be paid out of my account when the time comes." Chen Feng said slowly.
Fu Zhao took note of it, and with a thought in her mind, she asked: "Then after the New Year, do you still want to go to the border?"
Chen Feng nodded without hesitation, "Father is still there, so of course I want to go back."
Fu Zhao's smile dimmed a lot, but he didn't expect that they would still have to say goodbye.
Sensing Fu Zhao's loss, Chen Feng was about to say a few words of comfort when he saw a maid running in.
