On the night of the thirtieth day of the lunar month, every family worshiped their ancestors and fired cannons, but the Xi family was quiet here.

The reason is nothing, but the old lady Bu said that he was afraid of scaring his relatives and great-grandchildren, so they were only allowed to do some elegant and educational things in the yard, such as putting Kong Ming lanterns and guessing lantern riddles.

After everyone played for a while, they felt bored, so they simply talked around the fireplace, chatting about the New Year's Day with melon seeds, Xi Yunzhi originally wanted to stay up until then, but was taken back to the room early by Bu Qin.

But because Xi Yunzhi slept a lot during the day, and now he is very energetic, even if he lies down, his eyes are staring, and he is coquettish to Bu Qin from time to time, and he refuses to get up when he sleeps on his lap.

"Husband, do you want a boy or a girl?"

Bu Qin leaned on the soft pillow, stroked Xi Yunzhi's sideburns with one hand, listened to the sound of firecrackers crackling in the city, and replied softly:

"Whatever, I like everything you give birth to."

“……”

Xi Yunzhi turned his head to look at Bu Qin, who was staring at her, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth: "It's okay if I give birth to a girl for you, I will give birth to a boy for you, no matter how many you have." ”

Bu Qin listened to her words and felt a little speechless, so he had to emphasize again:

"Whether it's a girl or a boy, I like it."

Xi Yunzhi turned around on his lap, pressed his cheek, which couldn't stop laughing, into his lower abdomen, and said in a muffled voice:

"I didn't know what good things I did in my previous life to marry you and marry the Bu family."

Bu Qin smiled: "Isn't it bitter? ”

Xi Yunzhi shook her head desperately, bent her □, and kissed her lightly twice on the top of her head.

In the warm spring-like room, Xi Yunzhi fell asleep on Bu Tan's lap, time seemed to stand still, Bu Tan looked at her gentle sleeping face, couldn't help touching her red cheeks, leaned close to her ear and said softly:

"Me too, being able to marry you is the only good thing I have done in my life."

***

Xi Yunzhi seemed to have slept for a long time, opened his eyes, only to hear the sound of firecrackers outside the city, Xi Yunzhi was awake and couldn't sleep anymore, so he got up from the bed, walked out of the door lightly, and went to the front yard.

She stood for a while in front of the courtyard gate, wrapped in felt, and when she saw that the food she had placed at dinner was still in good condition, she went into the kitchen with some disappointment, took out a few eggs from the cupboard, and boiled them in a pot. In the past, when my mother was still alive, whenever I encountered something good, I would boil a lot of eggs to celebrate.

When she had boiled the eggs, she opened the door and put the hot eggs next to her supper, then went back to the kitchen, turned off the lights, and sat down at the windowsill, from the angle from which she was sitting, she could see the movement around the rocks outside the door.

She leaned back in the chair, quietly stroked her still flat lower abdomen, felt that life was magical, hard to believe, at this moment there would be a little life in her womb, this joy of being a new mother, she wanted to share with her father.

However, Xi Yunzhi waited for a whole hour, but the food on the stone was still untouched, and it was about to turn white, but the person she was waiting for still did not appear.

Bu Qin suddenly got up, appeared behind her, and hugged her sideways, who was a little cold, but Xi Yunzhi didn't want to go back, hugged his neck and said:

"I want to wait."

Bu Qin shook his head: "If you wait, he really won't come." ”

Xi Yunzhi looked at Bu Qin's face, and seemed to understand what he meant, so he stopped talking, pillowed his head on his shoulder socket, and let himself be carried back.

As Bu Qin said, Xi Yunzhi woke up the next day and saw that the food was gone, and the eggs were gone.

Xi Yunzhi looked at the empty plate, entered without saying a word, and sighed deeply, since then, she has never put the plate outside.

When others asked her why, she just smiled and didn't speak.

***

On the fifth day of the first month, welcome the God of Wealth.

Xi Yunzhi was invited to the city by the acting shopkeeper of several shops, and listened to their reports on the plans for the new year, as well as last year's shortcomings, and then Xi Yunzhi made decisions and judgments one by one, and several shops came down, which made her feel a little tired, so she lay behind the counter of the rouge shop and took a leisure.

The show girls knew that she was here, and they came to her one after another, and gave her many small objects for children, Xi Yunzhi smiled helplessly:

"It's a little bigger, auntie, the aunts sent it too early."

Aunt Lan rushed to make embroideries every day, slept less, didn't eat as much as before, and the whole person looked a lot thinner, but the charm was not reduced.

"What's early, you look at him young now, but you can try it in a few months."

The women present are all married, and a few of them have also given birth, although they are all alone now, but they are also experienced, and it is quite like talking about it.

Xi Yunzhi touched his stomach and thanked them for their kindness.

As she was talking, the sedan chair of the Bu family had already rushed to pick her up. When the heavy curtain of the store was lifted, it turned out to be Bu Qin who came to pick it up in person, and when Aunt Lan saw that it was him, they all looked at each other, and stood up one after another, and the lively scene suddenly cooled down.

Bu Qin didn't seem to be aware that he was stirring up the scene, but just beckoned to Xi Yunzhi and said coldly:

"Let's go back."

On the carriage, Xi Yunzhi leaned on Bu Tan and said softly to him:

"Husband, you are too fierce to Aunt Lan."

Bu Qin didn't care: "What's the murder? I didn't scold them. ”

"......" Xi Yunzhi was speechless: "But your face is always cold, they are afraid when they see it." ”

Bu Qin hugged her directly to her lap, made her more comfortable to lean on her arms, and said in a plain voice:

"That's how my face is, and I don't see you scared."

Xi Yunzhi found a comfortable place for himself: "I am marrying a chicken and a dog and marrying a dog, I am always afraid, and I can't live this day." ”

"......" Bu Qin pinched the two lumps of flesh on her buttocks, and then said fiercely in her ear:

"Don't think that if you're pregnant, I won't dare to touch you."

Xi Yunzhi stuck out her tongue at this time, making a look of being really scared by him, hiding in his arms with a smile on the corner of her mouth and pretending to sleep, for the sake of her and the child's health, she still didn't want to provoke this scheming man.

***

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the news of Xi Yunzhi's pregnancy has spread, the Zhizhou Mansion and the Tongju Mansion have all sent people to send supplements and congratulatory certificates, and the shopkeepers who have had business dealings with her in the past have also sent her some things, even Xiao Luo personally came to the door with congratulatory gifts to congratulate, but after coming, he said a few words to Xi Yunzhi, and then pulled Bu Qin into the study, and the two talked secretly for a long time before coming out.

Xi Yunzhi was counting the gifts with Ruyi Ruyue in the hall, and recorded them in the book one by one as favors, Ruyi pointed, Ruyue wrote, she sat aside and drank tea, watching them run around.

At this moment, a crisp jingle suddenly sounded outside the house, and when you heard the sound, you could know which one of the golden bells on the carriage collided with each other, as if a guest had arrived.

Xi Yunzhi put down the teacup and asked Ruyi to go over to see who it was, and after a while, Ruyi ran in and called her:

"Madam, your mother's house has arrived. Said he was coming to bring you two rough girls......"

***

Xi Yunzhi looked at the second aunt Dong and the two flowery girls standing behind her, and roughly knew her intentions.

Where do you want to find two rough girls for her, this is to find her two ancestors on the cabinet to offer.

Yun Ping and Yun Shui are the two daughters of the second room, Xi Yunchun's half-sisters, in terms of appearance, the two sisters can be regarded as leaders in the Xi family, after hearing the news of her pregnancy, they sent the two yellow flower girls to the door in a grand manner, which can be described as Sima Zhao's heart.

"Please ask the second aunt to go back and tell the old lady that Yunzhi is doing well in her husband's house, and there is no need for the old lady to bother."

The Dong family is more capable of being a person than the Zhou family, although she was not very good at treating Xi Yunzhi in the past, but now that she knows that she has some skills, Wu Niang Shang was arrested, and I heard that it was also because of her strong testimony, in the face of such a woman who has been forbearant for many years, she involuntarily spoke more politely.

"What the big girl said, the old lady also cares about the juniors, and I hope you can all live better. Yun Ping and Yun Shui are gentle, they are the best candidates to accompany the eldest sister, if the eldest girl has anything, just ask them to do it. ”

Xi Yunzhi tried her best to maintain a smile:

"The two younger sisters are not married, so they stay with me like this, I am afraid that it will ruin their reputation, the second aunt still brings the two sisters back, and when they marry in the future, I will definitely prepare some dowries for them."

Xi Yunzhi's words, although he said it to the Dong family, but in fact, he also said it to Yunping and Yunshui, and wanted to tell them about the powerful relationship, after she got married, they were sent in as girls, that is, the girls in the connecting room are not counted, but as long as she accepts them, outsiders will automatically list them as the private property of the Bu family, and even if they are innocent, some people will say that they are not innocent.

"The eldest sister is too worried. Yun Ping and I want to stay and serve the eldest sister, isn't it that the eldest sister dislikes us for being stupid and refuses to accept us? ”

Xi Yunzhi didn't have much impression of Xi Yunshui, she only knew that they were the daughters of the second room, and they didn't come out much on weekdays, but now when she looked at it, she knew that she was also a powerful character, and before she entered the door, she began to raise the bar with her.

He stared at her quietly for a long time, and then said:

"It's not that I dislike it, I just think it will hinder the future of my sisters, you are so beautiful, you are in my sparrow-sized mansion, after all, you can't fly high, you can't jump far, why should you wronged yourself."

Yun Ping and Yun Shui glanced at each other, and looked at Xi Yunzhi's mansion again, but they didn't say anything, just looked at the back of the second aunt, and their eyes were not angry.

In fact, they think a lot about Erniang being able to arrange them to go to the Tongju Mansion, which is also to make people small, they are more willing to be small for the Tongju adults, as long as the kung fu is enough, they can't say that they can still squeeze out Xi Yunchun to be the main room, but what is Xi Yunzhi? Even if the family married has a few friends who are officials, so what, the family is surrounded by walls, and there is not even a decent decoration, even if they squeeze out Xi Yunzhi, they will not get any benefit, but they will have to work for such a dilapidated family.

Xi Yunzhi observed the expressions of the two girls behind the mist by drinking tea, and after thinking about it, he put down the teacup and continued:

"By the way, there is something I don't know if the second aunt knows." She deliberately sold Guan Zi and said to Dong, who raised her eyebrows gently: "Huh? What's up? ”

Xi Yunzhi glanced at Yun Ping and Yun Shui, intentionally or unintentionally, covered his lips with a handkerchief and said:

"Sister Yunchun always likes to go to my store for fun, but recently she is a little depressed, I heard that Lord Yang often goes in and out of fireworks places, oh, he also took a Qinglou woman with him grandly a year ago...... What's Fang Fei's name, go to my rouge shop and buy rouge for that girl. ”

The second aunt was originally drinking tea, but after listening to Xi Yunzhi's words, her face changed, she put down the teacup, frowned, and said:

"Is that true?"

It is true that Xi Yunchun often goes to Xi Yunzhi's shop after marriage, because she also knows that it was her son-in-law who told her to tell her, just because the son-in-law wants to tie up with Xi Yunzhi's husband is a friend, so he wants to borrow Xi Yunzhi to get close to that son-in-law, but she has never heard Yunchun say this thing Xi Yunzhi said.

Xi Yunzhi nodded exaggeratedly: "Naturally, it's true, the guys and some guests in my store have seen it, the second aunt will know the truth as soon as she goes to inquire, Lord Yang was still drunk that day, and it looks like he just came out of the building." ”

Seeing that Dong was lost in thought because of her words, Xi Yunzhi continued:

"It seems that Sister Yunchun's life in the Tongju Mansion is not easy, this man always does not return home, that is not a good thing, second aunt, do you say yes?"

Dong's face showed embarrassment, but Yun Shui listened to Xi Yunzhi's words, his heart moved, he was bold, walked up to Dong, and said to her:

"Erniang, don't worry, why don't you let me and Yunping help my sister, our three sisters ......"

Before Yun Shui's words were finished, he was rewarded by the Dong family with an ear scraper, and said angrily: "Shut up, shameless little prodigal hoof, do you still want to make trouble for your sister?" ”

Dong said the wrong thing in a hurry, only to find out that he had missed his mouth when he said it, Xi Yunzhi smiled silently, as if he didn't hear the meaning of her words, Dong waved his hand irritably at Yun Shui, these two girls were originally from the second room, she looked at them unpleasantly since she was a child, and she naturally didn't have so much patience to treat them.

"Thank you for reminding the eldest girl, after I go back, I will go to see the situation of Yunchun, then today's matter, let's just say it, Yunping and Yunshui will stay with you as companions and listen to your call."

“……”

Xi Yunzhi smiled and didn't speak, but in his heart he scolded these people half to death, thinking that if Yunping and Yunshui are not collected today, then there will be Yunhong and Yunlu tomorrow, anyway, there are many girls from the side branches of the Xi family, they change their ways every day to send people, and in the end it is she who annoys her, it is better to accept two first, and then kill the chickens and monkeys, so that they dare not come again.

Just as he was thinking about it, he only heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the courtyard, and Bu Qin took Han Feng and Zhao Yi home, it seemed that he had listened to the news from home and rushed back on purpose.

The author has something to say: hehe, the first update.
