Chonglan didn't expect her to say that the wind is the rain, so she waved her hand with a smile and said, "You are too anxious, when is this?" ”

She was actually quite unimpressed in her heart, and her face couldn't help but show a little: "Besides, Jinnian is not in a hurry, my mother-in-law and grandmother have been busy with her father-in-law's affairs recently, how can she have the time to ask about this?" ”

Aunt Chong first sent Chongyan Chongzheng and Zheng Zhao to the private room next door, and then she said: "Your mother went early, I can't teach you hand in hand, only I can barely act as a mother, let's talk about it today." ”

She breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "Being a daughter-in-law is a science, don't take it seriously, now you and Governor Yan are of course very good, but what if there is one in the future?" Only when you have a child can you have confidence, and in the future, whether you are facing the difficulties of your mother-in-law or the harsh criticism of your elders, you can straighten your waist and sit firmly in the position of the main mother. ”

Chonglan knew that she was sincere when she spoke, but she still couldn't get used to this kind of saying that she used her child as a bargaining chip, so she frowned and said, "Aunt..."

Aunt Chong waved her hand, looking a little sad: "Don't think I've spoken, it's just that I really don't want you to suffer again." ”

She slowly stroked her cuffs, thinking of the old things, her expression was a little trance: "When I first married Zhao'er and her father, our family was defeated, my father-in-law and Zhao'er and her father are fine, my mother-in-law You also know, is not a good person, tossing me in a different way, stuffing concubines into the room, in the name of no out, I was low and small, for fear that there would be a little difference, I remember one time I was busy entertaining guests in the morning, and I went late, she punished me for kneeling and copying Buddhist scriptures, and my first child flowed out like this..."

There were many lines on her well-maintained face, each of which seemed to hide a lot of suffering, and some tears welled up in her eyes, and she wiped her eyes with a silk: "My poor child, the doctor said that it was not yet formed..."

Chonglan hurriedly reached over and patted her gently on the back, and was about to say comfort, when she waved her hand, and she stopped crying first: "Hey, it's all back then, and I still have it in my heart." ”

Her white fingers slowly rubbed the corners of her forehead, "Later, I gave birth to a big brother, and I didn't care about marrying Zhao'er and her father's future, and the idea caught his heart, so that he had some confidence, but he was also cautious, for fear of giving people the wrong place." ”

When Chonglan was a child, she often heard her mother say that her aunt was pampered when she was not out of the cabinet, and she was angry when she was unsatisfactory.

She listened to it with a sour heart, a woman has passed most of her life like this, and how often is she living for herself?

She pulled her weight and said: "I was in such a situation at the time, seeing you marry into such a high family, I was more worried than happy, I was always afraid that you would be angry in the high gate, but fortunately, the governor felt sorry for you and saved you from many grievances." ”

She shook her head and said, "This is very good, but you have to earn a good life by yourself, you can't all point to men, Qi Guofu is not worry-free, you have to have a child by your side, don't lose your manners up and down, and you can be less afraid of talking and doing things in the future." ”

Chonglan said movingly: "Auntie...", she nodded and said, "I saved it." ”

Aunt Chong was relieved at this time, patted her hand and said, "Don't think I'm making a fuss, I'm also from here, and I know the difficulties." ”

She raised her voice to let the three of Chongyan come in, and ordered the food to be served in the hall, and said with a smile: "When I was pregnant with my eldest brother, I was sleepy all day long, and I always loved to think crankily in my head, and I couldn't eat anything. ”

Chonglan's heart moved, as if he thought of something, he just suppressed his thoughts, and joked with a smile: "Jinlou is separated from Zheng Mansion by half of Jinling City, and my uncle is really on the way." ”

Aunt Chong patted her hard: "I have a long ability, dare to make fun of your aunt." ”

Chonglan hurriedly said goodbye, and when he was talking and laughing, a Dongpo elbow was brought up, lying on the blue and white plate steaming, pouring a circle of soup on the oily and slippery skin and meat, the elbow trembled slightly, and the fresh fragrance of the ingredients slowly escaped, and a circle of green and lovely snow vegetables was sprinkled next to it, which made it even more obvious that the meat skin in it was recognizable.

Aunt Chong smiled and clipped a chopstick for her, and then pinched the chopsticks for Zheng Zhao: "Dongpo's elbow is the most tender place, stew the elbow until it is soft and smooth, and you can separate it with a light clip of chopsticks." ”

Chonglan took it with a saucer, lowered her head and tasted it, and found that it was really delicious and soft, melted in her mouth, and the taste of the sauce did not cover the fragrance of her elbows.

As soon as she finished giving the order, she saw Aunt Chong looking at him teasingly, and Chongzheng widened her eyes and said deliberately: "Nannan, are you going to pack this elbow for me?" The second brother is here to thank you in advance, and I am worried that I will not have any food and wine when I go back. ”

Chonglan didn't eat his set, and said with a smile: "Since the second brother likes to eat, then let Cousin Zhao help you clip it." ”

Chongzheng immediately died down, Aunt Chong was rarely happy, and ordered someone to come up with carved wine, when Yan Yan was smiling, a light rain fell outside, and the autumn rain in Jinling was like smoke and fog, lingering between heaven and earth.

Chonglan drank two more glasses and got up slowly: "No, I have to go back first, it's inconvenient to leave after a while." ”

Aunt Chong saw that she was already a little drunk, and she was afraid that something would happen to her on the rainy road, so she hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Don't go back today, it happens to be close to Chongfu, so you can rest in Chongfu first, and then go back when you wake up." ”

Chonglan waved his hand and said, "It's not far, I arrived in less than half an hour by carriage." ”

Chongyan turned his head to look at her: "No matter how close it is, it's not as close as the mansion, don't be greedy at this time, I will order someone to pass the word to the Qi State Mansion." ”

Chongzheng said sourly: "Your dear heart is still on an errand, and I can't see him so early." ”

Chonglan turned her head and glared at him, but the three of you said a word, and she couldn't say anything before leaving, so she could only sit down and continue to talk to them.

A few people talked and laughed for a while, and when they saw that it was not too early, they were about to disperse, Chonglan was about to go out with a food box in one hand, and saw a long shadow standing in the cloud-like rain, holding an umbrella with one hand, with an indifferent expression, and the apricot blossom rain fell continuously around him, showing a different kind of grace and lightness.

Chonglan's hand holding the food box tightened, and he took a few steps forward to greet him: "Why are you here?" ”

Yan He held the umbrella above her head, and a few strokes on the surface of the umbrella outlined koi lotus leaves, as if swimming in the rain.

He stretched out his hand to support her, and when he saw that she was standing firmly, he said, "It's raining today, I'm afraid that it won't be convenient for you to come back, so I'll take the time to come and pick you up." ”

Aunt Chong quipped on the side: "It's good now, people send it by themselves, and you don't have to worry about going home all the time." ”

Chonglan's face turned red, and Yan He greeted her with a bow: "Auntie." He turned to Chongyan and Chongzheng again: "Big brother and second brother." ”

Chongyan and Chongzheng were similar to each other at this time, Qi Qi snorted coldly, and turned his head away.

Yan He didn't care, handed the umbrella to her again, said hello and helped her into the carriage.

She was happy in her heart, but she still said with disgust: "I remember that the Governor's Palace is in the city, right?" You have to walk for a long time, what are you doing in a hurry, I don't know the way, and I make people laugh. ”

Yan He has learned to listen to her words in reverse, and said calmly: "I'm just on the way, don't be too moved." ”

Chonglan thought of Uncle Chong, who was also 'on the way', and couldn't help but smile, lying in his ear and blowing softly: "By the way? How smooth is it? ”

Yan He pursed his lips, seeing her charming posture, he only hated that the carriage of the two was on the street now, so he could only tilt his head and kiss her on the lips: "How smooth and smooth." ”

Chonglan stepped back a little and glanced at him obliquely, and his charm was as silky.

Yan He saw that she was so beautiful and delicious, but unfortunately she couldn't eat in the wrong place, so he couldn't help but take a deep breath: "What are you doing with your aunt and two uncles today?" ”

He pondered for a moment, with a little unhappiness between his eyebrows: "Who is the man standing next to your aunt, how can you see a foreign man?" ”

Chonglan was stunned for a moment before she realized that he was talking about Zheng Zhao, her head buried in her shoulder and she trembled with laughter, and it took a while to raise her head and wipe the tears that came out of her laughter: "I still have good eyes for you, it turns out that you have lost your eyes like me." ”

She laughed and said, "I accompanied my second brother to meet my daughter-in-law today, and the one you asked is the object he wants to meet, and he is also the daughter of my aunt's family, my cousin." ”

Yan He was slightly stunned, and then raised his lips and smiled: "Second brother and uncle are not shallow. An old man who looked at him coldly finally sent away, he thought about it, and then asked, "What about the uncle?" ”

Chonglan waved his hand: "Who knows what the eldest brother thinks?" I've never seen him fall in love with any girl since I've grown up, and I really don't know what kind of person can be looked at by him. ”

Yan He sighed: "A character like my uncle must only be worthy of a woman with a strange woman." ”

Why does this sound a bit of schadenfreude? She glanced at him, leaned on the car rim, fiddled with the tassels on the curtain for a while, and hesitated: "Actually, it's not just this, there is one more thing..."

It's rare for her to swallow, although the two have been married for a long time, she still blushes when she mentions it, thinking of what she has to do before giving birth...

She looked at him with a strange expression, and coughed dryly, "Aunt said... It's time for us to have a baby, too. ”

She didn't want to hide it from him, so she spread it out and said: "You also know the situation in the house, many black-eyed chickens look at me like chickens, and the heir is a big deal, and someone will definitely make trouble if someone holds the handle." “

She leaned into his arms and frowned, "What if my mother-in-law and grandmother use this excuse to give you a concubine again?" ”

Although she and Yan He had frequent incidents, except for occasional hot times, most of them acted according to their days.

Yan He's expression became more and more strange, and he looked at her with a smile, and saw that she was annoyed and angry, and then slowly opened his mouth: "I thought that you were still young, and I wanted you to relax for a few more years, and I was in front of me on the left and right, and others couldn't talk about you." ”

He sighed slowly: "I didn't expect Madame to be so anxious." ”

Chonglan glared at him: "I think you are afraid of having a child and delaying you..."

He was kind and persuasive: "What is delaying me? ”

Chonglan closed his mouth tightly and didn't speak, he hugged her to his lap, and rubbed his hands back and forth on her waist and hips ambiguously, and was a little embarrassed: "Have you seen that there is one in the picture book, in the car..."

Chonglan knew what he was thinking when he saw his eyes, and pushed him away and said, "Don't even think about it, let people take a look without paying attention, I can only hang my neck and apologize!" ”

He didn't expect her to agree, but he still glanced at her in disappointment: "Aren't you in a hurry to have a child, why are you so timid when things come to an end?" ”

"There's no rush at this time!" Chonglan gritted her teeth and thought about it again: "Are you willing to give me a baby?" ”

"......" Yan He said slowly: "Expecting me to have a child, I'm afraid that you will have to wait until you are old." ”

Chonglan covered her mouth and said, "Slip of the tongue." ”

She hadn't thought about the child carefully, but today Leng Buding was solemnly brought up by Aunt Chong, and she got Yan He's permission, and she was inexplicably excited: "You said that we want a boy or a girl for our first child?" ”

Yan He gave her a strange look: "Firstborn? How many more are you planning to have? ”

Chonglan waved his hand: "It's more than a meaning, you look at the three brothers and sisters in our family, it's lively together." ”

She wrenched her fingers and said: "The boy is too skinny, and he is afraid that he can't control it when he is born, but the female doll is well-behaved, but she has to bear a lot of responsibilities when she is the eldest sister, and she has to work hard all her life." ”

Yan He said lightly: "... Is that what you can decide? He put it on her back and slowly comforted: "I'm not in a hurry at this time, let's prepare well first and recuperate my body." ”

Chonglan's excitement subsided slightly, and after a while, he became excited again: "What should we prepare for the first step?" ”

Yan He saw that her face was full of irrepressible joy, and stretched out his hand to press the corner of his forehead and said, "What do you think?" ”

Chonglan whimsically: "Worship the son Guanyin? ”

Yan He: "......" He paused before saying, "I've asked the doctor carefully." ”

The two gossiped all the way back to the house, and Chonglan remembered that there was still Dongpo's elbow in the car, and it was still a little warm when she brought it up, so she handed it to him and said, "I haven't finished eating it in the Jinlou, and I'll give you a taste of the rest." ”

After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at him narrowly, he casually lifted the sandalwood lid and looked at it, and saw a whole elbow lying on a plate with blue and white entwined branches. His heart fluttered slightly, and he raised his lips and smiled: "Then there is Mrs. Lao." ”

Chonglan followed him into the house: "Have you used lunch?" ”

Yan He glanced at her leisurely: "You're not here, how can I eat." ”

Chonglan's face was slightly red, and the few maids who followed her were a few steps behind, and after she entered the hospital, she turned directly into the small kitchen that had just been built, rolled up her sleeves with a silver neck, and prepared to cook a few side dishes by herself.

She didn't have time to do the work of washing vegetables and washing dishes by herself, so she threw the bamboo shoots to the cook to peel and wash, and began to cut the whole Jinhua ham, cut the ham into thin slices and stacked them on the plate, and began to cut the washed reeds again.

She was so busy cooking that she didn't pay attention to the fact that the surroundings of the kitchen were quiet, her earlobes were so cold that she almost screamed, and she turned her head to see that she complained: "What are you doing, don't make a sound, you're scared to death." ”

He looked at the handful of verdant artemisia in her hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "What about the cooks in the room, how can you do it yourself?" ”

Obviously, a few cooks saw him come in, and they retreated with their own knowledge, and Chonglan pushed him away with his elbow: "Don't delay me cooking, go out quickly." ”

Yan He's chin rested on her shoulder: "What are you going to do?" I'll help you. ”

Chonglanhu asked, "What can you do?" I'm afraid I can't even handle a kitchen knife. ”

It is said that the gentleman is far away from cooking, except for the chef in charge, Chonglan has really never seen a big man take the initiative to help cook, let alone his identity.

However, since he took the initiative to work, Chonglan would not push people out, so he took a yam and handed it to him: "You go, peel and wash this one." ”

The cooks standing outside were sweating, daring to order the governor like this, not afraid that he would be annoyed by the time?

Yan He frowned and looked at the few yams in his hand, showing a rare feeling of helplessness. Although he was not welcomed in Qi Guofu at the beginning, he was also the eldest son and grandson, and he really never did such things as washing vegetables and cooking

But in a blink of an eye, I saw that the beauty was like a jade, busy working next to the stove board, and my heart was instantly relieved.

As soon as Chonglan finished cutting the reeds, he saw that the yam in Yan He's hand was cut by him and only a small root the thickness of his finger was left, so he snatched it up and said, "I said I wouldn't let you move earlier, you want to come over and spoil things, and you can't eat the cherry meat yam today." ”

Yan He's hands are white and powerful, he has held a sword, held a pen, and killed people, but when he encountered a kitchen knife, it was like meeting a nemesis, and he felt wrong when he held it left and right.

Chonglan teased him: "I know that you don't know how to use a knife, so you have to spend time with me here, you better go to the main hall and wait honestly for dinner." ”

Yan He simply put down the yam and smiled at her, as if he had a little ill will: "How could it not?" I have a knife on me, and I have never seen it except my wife, who should know best whether I can use a knife or not. ”

He leaned down, tilted his head and kissed her cheek: "I just don't know if Madame is allowed to put my knives and guns into the warehouse now?" ”

Although Chonglan blushed, she was already able to push him away very calmly: "I'm cooking, do you still want to eat?" ”

He tilted his head and kissed her neck, making her hide as if she was afraid of itching, and then said in a deep voice: "I just want to eat Madame." ”

He took pity on the honey love, and the gentle kiss fell like raindrops, kissing her eyebrows and eyes, tossing and turning, kissing the bridge of the straight nose, and then falling on the plump red lips, he cherished this honey-like taste, and tossed and grinded for a long time before going to the bottom.

Chonglan has now begun to regret telling him about the child, he was originally bullying her when he was caught, but now it is almost regardless of the occasion, she reluctantly pushed him, gritted her teeth and said: "You still have no end, let people see how good-looking?" ”

He reached into the hem of her clothes with one hand and gently stroked it: "Everyone has been driven out, what are you afraid of?" ”

Chonglan bit him on the shoulder: "I won't do it!" ”

He tilted his head and smiled, "I'll just do it." He gently tugged at her front, revealing a patch of spring on her chest. The light comes, and the green waist supports the white, which makes people dizzy.

Chonglan struggled desperately: "You can spare me, let's go back to the room after eating... Hmm, what are you doing? ”

He took a bite: "It's got spice here." He slowly moved down, holding on to the bit of the fabric, and teasing it carefully. At this time, the fire in the stove was already burning, and in addition to the more delicate and gentle whispering in the small kitchen, the crackling sound of the charcoal fire could be faintly heard...

A few cooks outside only knew that there was suddenly no sound in the kitchen, and after a while, they heard the young lady scream: "Ah, the pot is hot!" "After a while, I saw the young master walk out with a gloomy face...

No matter how bitter it was, the two finally had lunch when they were about to have dinner, Chonglan was almost carried into the bedroom by Yan He, and after being exhausted, he was hugged and fell asleep with a satisfied face.

Chonglan helped Chongzheng to do nothing after the blind date, and simply hid in the house every day to warm the book, and went out to sneak away and hehe when he had nothing to do, and when Yan He was free, he took the place he didn't understand and asked him, and he took the opportunity to ask him.

Compared with the leisurely and comfortable of the two, Mrs. Yan has a lot of headaches, she imagined that the county lord of Qinghe should be from a famous family, generous and kind, able to take care of her mother-in-law and concubines, and able to raise her children, so that the family can prosper, not only to assist her husband to be motivated, but also to take care of family affairs.

At first, the county lord of Qinghe really endured it for a few days, but within a few days, his true nature came out, Yan Sansi was not fresh to her, knowing that she couldn't do anything when she was pregnant, and she was still by her side every night when she was newly married.

But Yan Sansi is not a character who can keep it, and after a while, he couldn't help it, and the same maid who came to his room to serve was eyebrow-eyed, and he originally intended to use it, but somehow, the county lord of Qinghe knew about it, and arbitrarily deducted a charge of stealing, and beat the maid to death and threw it out of the house.

She thought about it and felt unhappy, so she simply replaced the big girls around Yan Sansi with daughters-in-law in their thirties and forties, and only a few of them were stupid and ugly, which made Yan Sansi complain about her distress and complain to Mrs. Yan.

If that's all it takes, the lord of Qinghe County is violent and domineering, and he interferes in the affairs of his children at will, and he can't raise his head in the other rooms of Qi Guofu, and he doesn't even pay attention to the grandmother sent by Mrs. Yan to persuade peace.

Old Madam Yan heard the news from somewhere, saying that the lion in the Pingle County Mansion almost hollowed out the family of Qi Guofu, which was the idea of the county lord of Qinghe at all, and later saw that Qi Guofu had a tough attitude before giving up, and so on all these things added up, and the old lady Yan fell on the hospital bed angrily.

Chonglan leaned on the chaise longue and listened to the news from Qingyun's inquiry, while leisurely flipping through the book. The temperament of the county lord of Qinghe, it's strange if he doesn't make some trouble, these are all light, and Mrs. Yan will have a headache in the future.

She was thinking about it when she heard someone outside the eaves: "Young lady, old lady, please go to the main hall." ”
