In the Commander's Mansion in Quanzhou, Yin Xiaoxiao held her daughter-in-law Mei Yun's hand with a happy face, greeted her with sincere greetings, and showed her utmost concern: "When you are pregnant, you have to be more cautious in your words and deeds. You need to be at ease to raise your baby."
"How is your daily appetite? Is your morning sickness severe?"
Mei Yun, who has a lively and generous personality, blushed with embarrassment when asked, and replied softly: "My daughter-in-law is still in good health, and her morning sickness is not severe. She vomits two or three times a day. The doctor comes to check my pulse every three days."
He said, "My pulse is quite stable."
Yin Xiaoxiao smiled happily when she heard this, and said hello repeatedly: "Okay, okay! That's good! You take good care of your baby and take good care of yourself. From now on, you don't have to worry about any trivial matters in the inner house, just leave them to me."
Her mother-in-law was so happy, Mei Yun also felt happy in her heart, and she smiled accordingly.
Brother Lin interrupted with a smile: "Mom, are you going to Fuzhou during the Chinese New Year?"
Yin Xiaoxiao responded matter-of-factly: "I'm not going anywhere. You have to work as an errand, and Ayun is pregnant and can't be without anyone. I have to take good care of Ayun."
At this time, the sons have to take the back seat, and the unborn grandchildren are more important!
Brother Lin winked at Mei Yun.
Mei Yun pursed her lips and smiled, once again glad that she married the right person.
The young couple have a sweet and harmonious relationship. As a daughter-in-law, it is even more of a blessing to meet such a reasonable and cheerful mother-in-law.
The family of three talked and laughed and had a lively lunch.
After lunch, Brother Lin and Yin Xiaoxiao discussed the business: "Mom, cousin A Luo will be getting married in a few days. Cousin Ting and I both have errands and cannot go back to Beijing to celebrate. I was thinking
, prepare more generous gifts and send them to the capital as soon as possible."
Yin Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded: "I also have to prepare a generous gift for Ah Luo. By the way, I will write a letter to your seventh aunt and tell her the good news of Ah Yun's pregnancy."
The mother and son discussed the gift and decided on the gift to be sent to the capital. They each wrote letters and sent them to the capital together without mentioning it.
…
From this day on, Yin Xiaoxiao's life had a new focus. She no longer thought it was hard and cumbersome to take care of the inner house, and she was energetic and took care of the housework every day.
Yin Xiaoxiao personally took care of Mei Yun's daily life, especially her diet.
Mei Yun was quite flattered, but she couldn't refuse it. She said to Brother Lin in private: "My mother-in-law treats me so well, I really deserve it."
There are those cunning and evil mothers-in-law in the world who don't like the love and harmony between their sons and their daughter-in-laws. They like to send concubines to their sons' wives, and rub their daughters-in-law when they have nothing to do.
Yin Xiaoxiao is a good mother-in-law that is hard to find in the world, kind and kind. She is really lucky to have such a mother-in-law.
Brother Lin reached out and caressed Mei Yun's still flat waist, and said with a low voice, "If you feel bad about it, work harder and have ten or eight children. Mom loves children the most."
Mei Yun blushed and spat at Brother Lin: "If you think I am a sow, how can I give birth to so many children? Three at most!"
Brother Lin was not greedy, and immediately changed his mind with a smile: "Three is fine. We have two sons first, and finally a daughter. The brothers are older and can protect my sister."
Mei Yun glanced at Brother Bai Lin again: "I prefer to give birth to a daughter. My daughter is smart, sensible, gentle and considerate, just like my cousin Xie Zijin."
Brother Lin had no idea and said with a grin: "That's right. My cousin is smart, cute, and quite lovable. Let's have a daughter just like that."
The young couple gathered together and murmured endlessly.
The young couple have a good relationship, and Yin Xiaoxiao feels happy to see it.
When Mei Yun's pregnancy is three months old and the fetus is stable, Yin Xiaoxiao plans to go to the temple to burn incense and make a wish, asking Bodhisattva to bless her daughter-in-law's pregnancy to be safe and smooth.
Meiyun stayed at home all day and felt bored. She wanted to go to the temple with her mother-in-law.
Yin Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "Although your fetal condition is stable, it's better to go out less often. There are people coming and going in the temple, and if you accidentally bump into it, it will always be unsightly. Just bear with it for a few months, and wait for the baby to get pregnant.
The child was born safely, and you can go wherever you want."
Mei Yun: "..."
All right!
Mei Yun could only continue to stay bored in the house, watching helplessly as her mother-in-law happily went out to burn incense.
…
In Quanzhou, the highest civilian official position is the fourth-rank magistrate, and the highest military officer is the fifth-rank commander. In terms of official positions, the prefect has a higher rank.
Ke Lin also has the identity of the crown prince of the Prince of Fujian, and Yin Xiaoxiao is the top-notch Princess of Fujian. In the capital where ladies gather, everyone respects her. Here in Quanzhou, the identity of the Princess of Fujian is even more precious.
Officials' wives can only compete to please and fawn over them.
There is a thick stack of greeting cards sent every day.
Yin Xiaoxiao actually didn't like this kind of socializing the most. After staying in the house for a few days, she felt bored. So she went out so actively to burn incense, so naturally she wanted to go out and relax.
Needless to say, the Princess of Fujian's trip was carried out in a grand manner. As usual, she was surrounded by people in front and behind, and there were fifty or sixty guards accompanying her.
Yin Xiaoxiao didn't like riding in a carriage, so she simply rode to the temple.
Yin Xiaoxiao, who is in her thirties, only has the charm of a mature woman, without any sign of age or decay. Her dashing and heroic appearance while riding a horse attracted the attention of countless men along the way.
Mr. Xie Wu, who was following quietly, looked at the stunning beauty of Princess Fujian from a distance, feeling proud and sad at the same time.
There were many people burning incense in the temple. Yin Xiaoxiao did not want to alarm the people, so she ordered a group of guards to disperse around the temple, leaving only two highly skilled guards to accompany them.
There is a small Buddhist hall in the temple dedicated to the women of officials and their families to burn incense.
Yin Xiaoxiao ordered two guards to guard the door and entered the Buddhist hall alone.
The small Buddhist hall is quiet and quiet, with sandalwood scent lingering.
Yin Xiaoxiao knelt in front of the Buddha statue and burned three sticks of incense. She clasped her hands together and said silently in her heart.
May Buddha bless brother Lin and brother Ting to be safe, and may Buddha bless daughter-in-law Mei Yun’s pregnancy to go smoothly. By the way, I’d also like to offer a stick of incense to my husband who has been dead for many years! Reincarnate as soon as possible and don’t keep coming to her dreams.
It disturbed her...
Suddenly there was a muffled sound of two fists hitting the back of the neck.
The two guards guarding the door were knocked down during a confrontation.
Yin Xiaoxiao's ears twitched and she was startled. She stood up quickly, turned around, and asked sharply: "Who is it?"
The monk Zhike in the small Buddhist hall also turned pale. If something happened to the noble man in the temple, the whole temple would be involved. The monk Zhike hurriedly rushed to open the door, but before he could see the face of the visitor clearly, he was
He hit the faint point and fell down.
The blazing sunlight shines in.
A tall man's figure appeared at the door.
The man was wearing a gray military uniform and had a slender figure. His face was covered by a messy beard. Those familiar yet unfamiliar eyes were looking at Yin Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, it's me."
