Chapter 534: Reunited after a long absence

In ancient times, people were accustomed to talking about false years. Brother Yun was born in the moon, and he will be two years old after the New Year, but he is actually less than a month...... The old customs, as long as you know about it.

------Off topic------

Yuegui listened quietly and repeated it word for word, Qiu Chen lowered his eyes, ate a cup of bird's nest in three or two bites, asked for light salt water to rinse his mouth, and got up and went to the west house.

Qiu Chen nodded, turned back to Yuegui and said, "You think about it for me, and talk to Yufeng later, and bring out a pair of clams, ten cordyceps, one or two ginsengs, and one or two sea dragons." Let the little girl grind it into powder and send it over. ”

Feng Qing, who was waiting for the bird's nest, hurriedly bent his knees and replied: "Madame, don't worry, according to your instructions, even the old lady and the uncle have the stewed bird's nest in the big kitchen in the morning, the old lady has already eaten it, and the uncle's wife has also sent it over." ”

Beckoned the girls to help her get up, went into the clean room to wash up, changed into a homely lake silk jacket bandeau dress, combed a neat bun, picked up two gold-inlaid hostas and saved them, took the bird's nest that the girl touched, took a sip slowly, and raised her eyes to look over.

When I opened my eyes and looked back at the clock, it was just the beginning of the day, and she usually had to lie on the bed for a while, but now I think of Mrs. Liu in the West House, but she can't lie in bed anymore.

The next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, she woke up again from leg cramps, hearing the movement, Chen Shi who was sleeping on the soft couch and Yuegui who was sleeping on the footrest both got up quickly, came forward to massage and knead her, and it took a while to calm the spasmodic muscles, Qiu Chen was tossed and sweated, asked for a warm wet cloth to wipe it once, changed into dry pajamas, and even changed the bedding into a dry one, lay down and was confused, and heard someone coming in and out of the West House.

Because of the deep pregnancy, Qiu Chen not only often has leg cramps at night, but also wakes up tired. I can't sleep well all night, and I wake up early in the morning.

After washing up, Chengying came back from outside, and reported to Qiu Chen that the three young masters had been settled, and the old lady and the entourage brought by the old lady and the old man and his wife had also been settled. The girls around the old lady and the aunt were also settled...... Everything was in order, Qiu Chen had no worries, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly fell asleep.

Originally, when preparing Ruyi Courtyard, I was thinking about placing the old lady and the Zhou family over there, but when I saw Yang Shuyong coming, I temporarily decided to place the old lady on her side. The two big girls Mei Zi and Si Mo and the four second-class girls prepared for the old lady were naturally transferred, and there were a few rough girls and mothers-in-law left in Ruyi Courtyard...... Although it doesn't look like it, but she is bulky and has limited energy at this time, so she can't scruple so much, as soon as she comes, Zhou brought a girl and avoided trouble, so she still don't arrange an older girl in her brother's sister-in-law's house.

Qiu Chen got up slowly, leaned over and pulled the quilt for the old lady, and then withdrew lightly with the girl's mother-in-law, walked out of the West House and instructed the two girls, Meizi and Si Mo, and sent Qingxing back, and then took Yuegui and Chengying's hands back to the East House.

As soon as the children left, Qiu Chen talked to Yang Shuyong and Zhou for a while, and couldn't hide the tiredness on Mrs. Liu's face, Qiu Chen asked Zhou and Yang Shuyong to go down to settle down, and she accompanied Mrs. Liu into the clean room to wash up and change into comfortable plain pajamas. The old lady was tired all the way, and it was late, so she didn't bathe the old lady, but only scalded the old lady's feet, and called a mother-in-law who could press her feet to come in and press her legs and feet for the old lady, and before she left, the old lady couldn't bear the attack of exhaustion and sleepiness and fell asleep.

The courtyard prepared for Mrs. Liu and the Zhou family in the west is just for Yang Shuyong and the Zhou family to live in, and there is no need to pick it up anymore.

Qiu Chen's West House on this side was originally where Brother Yun lived, and this time he moved back from the back garden, and it was still properly arranged, but Brother Yun was sent to the second courtyard, and it turned out that Ah Fu lived in the house. Everything in this west house is complete, and it just happened to house Mrs. Liu.

Junyan Junzhang followed Junwen Junshu, and Junli followed Ah Fu. Qiu Chen instructed a few times, and sent Chengying to watch the children place the gifts. What is lacking is first used with Junwen Junshu and Ah Fu General, and it will be appropriate to lay it out tomorrow.

After eating, the girls came up with water and rinsed their mouths, everyone turned into the west house from the hall, Liu and Qiu Chen went to the kang, Zhou sat on the edge of the kang, Brother Amanyun and Junli were called to the kang by Mrs. Liu for a rare time, and the children muttered and exchanged glances and said goodbye with a smile.

The family gathered together, although they were tired and uncomfortable, they were all happy, they were in a good mood, and the meal was very fragrant, even Qiu Chen had a rare meal of two chicken rolls, two tofu skin buns, and a small bowl of porridge. The old lady and the Zhou family and the children all ate very sweetly.

As long as the begonia can be calm and calm, it can raise a good tire and increase the probability of production to the maximum...... Or take the time to go to the temple to make a wish, pray for the blessing of the Bodhisattva, and bless the begonias and the children are safe!

Qiu Chen leaned on Mrs. Liu's shoulder with a smile and didn't answer, but the calm look and faint smile on his face explained it. Mrs. Liu and Zhou were also a little relieved when they saw it.

The Zhuang family is homely, and the seven aunts and eight aunts pull at every turn, Qiu Chen was funny at first, but now he is used to listening to it, and it is not funny, but he still can't talk. However, Liu's Zhou mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had the meaning of reminding her, but more of comforting her. A seven-month-old child can be born to live!

Zhou listened beside him, and also said: "When my mother said this, I also remembered, I also heard about it, fortunately, my cousin and my second aunt are from the same village, and they said that those two children are now full of arms, and they can't see what they looked like when they were children!" ”

Before, Qiu Chen was afraid that his family would be worried, so when he wrote back to Anyang, he only said that he was pregnant, and did not mention the twins. As soon as she said this, Mrs. Liu was inevitably startled, and when she heard her daughter say that her belly was bigger, there was nothing bad, so she was a little relieved, but she still instructed: "Don't take it seriously, how can these twins be two...... Well, I originally heard your sister-in-law and cousin say that there is a daughter-in-law in their village who is pregnant with twins, and she accidentally shook it at seven months and eight months, and she was born prematurely...... Well, fortunately, it was seven months and not eight months, and the two children who were born were like little mice, but they still survived. Well, it's been more than ten years since I talked about this, and those two children have become big children now! ”

Therefore, after listening to Mrs. Liu's words at this time, she didn't feel anything at all, but comforted Mrs. Liu with a smile: "I found a famous Lang Zhong to see it, and I also let the imperial doctors in the palace see it, and they all said that I was a twin this time." Two, the belly is naturally bigger, in fact, there is nothing bad, but it is not very convenient to act, and the others are the same as Fu'er Man'er at that time. ”

As soon as Qiu Chen heard it, he knew that the old lady was too worried when she looked at her, and she was afraid that she would change her words halfway, so she couldn't help laughing. Qin Zheng is cautious every day at home, and the girls and mothers-in-law up and down even take a few children of all sizes to use her as a glass doll, she has long been used to it, and she slowly looks away. She has made the most comprehensive preparations under this condition, no matter what danger there is, there is no way, it is useless for her to be afraid, why not open her heart, live happily, keep her mood comfortable, the natural development of the child is good, and reduce the possibility of premature birth...... I don't know what the consequences will be, she just needs to do her best for the safety of her mother and son, and for the happiness in front of her...... That's enough!

The girls agreed to go down, and Qingxing took two second-class girls to come up and help Mrs. Liu and Qiu Chen to get off the bed, and slowly walked out. Mrs. Liu stabilized her mind at this moment, and then looked at her daughter's crumbling belly, and finally couldn't help but say: "This baby looks ...... Well, pretty upfront! ”

Qiu Chen smiled and said, "Just put it in the outer room!" Open two tables! ”

After a brief description of the farewell, Yue Gui and Cheng Ying came in to ask for instructions on setting the meal.

Listening to the old lady's rambling words, Qiu Chen inexplicably felt extremely relieved.

When the old lady heard that her daughter was sad again, she hurriedly patted her hand to soothe her for a while, and then comforted her and said, "What's bad." Your father himself often said that if it weren't for the fact that his legs were not very convenient, he would feel that he would be more energetic than when he was younger! ”

After a pause, he sighed again: "I haven't seen my father for three years, is his old man's body okay now?" Does your leg still hurt? ”

No matter who is right or wrong, this is not the time to talk about this, Qiu Chen leaned over to Mrs. Liu with a smile, took the old lady's arm and said with a smile: "I'm not worried, but I didn't expect the eldest brother to come...... Hehe, I'm happy when everyone in my family comes, and I miss that when I see this, I miss that......"

As soon as he saw this situation, Qiu Chen knew that the second elder at home was arguing with his eldest brother because of this matter. It seems that in the end, the eldest brother failed to beat the old man......

After saying that, the old lady turned around and glared at her son again. Yang Shuyong glanced at his sister who came over, showed a helpless smile, and said with a smile: "Aren't I afraid that his old man's legs won't be able to stand it!" …… It's humid by the lake! ”

Mrs. Liu glanced at her son, patted her daughter's hand with a smile, and said, "Your father is fine at home, and he also went up to the lake." Don't worry, with your father watching, there is nothing wrong with Zhuangzi and the lake. ”

Yang Shuyong saw that his sister believed him, the smile on his face stretched even more, and continued: "Daxing is a capable one. The work on the Zhuangzi and in the lake was well arranged. There is also Chengzi, that child is really a successful one, now several workshops, Zhuangzi and the tent on the lake are all in charge of him, as soon as I said to go to Beijing, he also went down to the lake, lived over there and stared at it, with him and Daxing, I am a hundred rest assured, naturally speaking, it will come! ”

Looking at Yang Shuyong's swarthy face, Qiu Chen had reservations about the credibility of his words, but he didn't expose them to his face, just smiled and nodded.

After going to a layer of unconscious restraint, Yang Shuyong smiled very heartily, waved his hand and said, "Don't you always say that I should learn to use people...... Hehe, I guess you're right, and now I don't do much work in the fields and lakes. ”

Now, Qiu Chen asked so openly, Mrs. Liu and Zhou's Yang Shuyong were completely relieved, Haitang is still the daughter of their old Yang family, although she married into Beijing, married to the Hou Ye, and was named the county lord, but it is still real, and there are no polite and false courtesies.

Because of this species, Zhou's is better, after all, he has accompanied Qiu Chen in Beijing to do a month, Yang Shuyong has also entered Beijing to see his sister, and he knows that his sister has not changed much, but it is Mrs. Liu, who has not seen her daughter for a few years, and she will inevitably have some guesses in her heart, I wonder if her daughter will change when she becomes the county lord?

Although Begonia came out of their family, but now they always marry into the capital, marrying the Hou Ye - Qin Zheng's identity, and it is also clear that after Begonia married into Beijing, Yang Shuyong and Yang Shumeng entered Beijing to visit. What's more, Haitang is not only Mrs. Hou now, but also has a decree herself, and she is also the lord of Anning! Hey, what about the county lord, that is second only to the princess, in the eyes of the villagers, it is a step to the sky, high to the eyes of the clouds!

When she asked, Mrs. Liu and Zhou both laughed, and Yang Shuyong also laughed.

In August, the crops begin to be harvested. The lotus seeds, lotus roots, water chestnuts, and chicken head rice on the side of Nannuma Lake were also harvested at the end of June, and the harvest was almost complete until the end of July. In July, the fish in the lake can be fished...... It can be said that from the beginning of spring to the completion of autumn harvest and autumn planting, Yang Shuyong is busy, especially from June to September, which is the busiest season of the year. Yang Shuyong is also a hands-on person, yes, Qiu Chen didn't expect his eldest brother to come at all. Yes, she asked this in the first sentence.

"This season, how can the eldest brother be free?" After sitting down, Qiu Chen asked the eldest brother first.

After this commotion, the crowd was able to sit down again and begin to speak.

In turn, it was Junwen Junshu who stepped forward to greet the old lady and his father, and came up to greet the elders. Junyan Junzhang and Junli came up to greet their aunt again......

Qiu Chen should have kowtowed when she saw her own mother, but now she is really embarrassed to let her kowtow like this, so she can only make a blessing when the girls help her bend her knees. Instead, he called the three children of Ah Fu Aman and Yun Ge'er to come up, and solemnly kowtowed to his grandmother and uncle and aunt.

When a family gathers together, it is natural to see each other again.

Yang Shuyong took a group of children to wash up in the West House, and in addition to his coats, he also packed up and gathered at this time.

got off the sedan chair at the gate of Mu'en Courtyard, and hugged all the way into the main room in the backyard, Qiu Chen immediately ordered someone to prepare warm water, and gave Mrs. Liu, Zhou and Yang Shuyong the big clothes on their bodies, washed their hands and faces, and cleaned up, and then helped Mrs. Liu and Zhou to go to the bed together, took a big pillow for the old lady to snuggle on, and let Zhou also sit, and then sat next to Mrs. Liu.

Seeing that Yang Shuyong was also here, Qiu Chen immediately changed his mind. It was temporarily decided to place the old lady in the Muen Courtyard, which was in her main house, the West House.

Mrs. Liu and Qiu Chen Zhou each took a bright sedan chair, went all the way inside, passed the Hanging Flower Gate, and went straight to Mu'en Courtyard.

Mrs. Liu is old, and she has been taking a boat and a car all the way, and she has long been tired, but she forgot about it when she saw her daughter. When her daughter said this, she naturally wouldn't object, nodded, held her daughter's hand, and didn't know who was helping whom, and walked over to the small bright sedan chair parked not far away.

Qiu Chen glared at Qingxing playfully, and said with a smile: "Mother, let's go back to the house first, and say something slowly later!" ”

said, turned back to speak for Qingxing: "Qingxing girl is still so fast-talking, I just like this girl's cheerfulness, don't scare her!" ”

Turning her hand and patting Qingxing's hand, Mrs. Liu smiled and comforted: "Qingxing girl, don't worry, with me, your wife doesn't dare to do anything to you!" ”

was beaten by her like this, and Mrs. Liu also put aside the sadness of seeing her daughter again, and burst into tears.

Qingxing stepped forward, grabbed one of Mrs. Liu's arms, and begged for mercy while laughing: "Old lady help, Qingxing is just distressed that the old lady is tired and said, Mrs. is annoyed...... If the lady plays the green apricot board, the old lady will be merciful and compassionate to protect the green apricots! ”

When she said this, Qiu Chen also came back to his senses completely, first smacked Qingxing with a smile, and said angrily: "I'm used to you!" ”

Qingxing and Yuegui are both old people from Liu Jiaao, and they both came up at this time, Qingxing smiled and said: "It can be seen that Mrs. is overjoyed when she sees the old lady and his uncle's wife, and she forgets that it is cold at this time, and the old lady and his uncle are tired after a bumpy journey!" ”

At this moment, seeing that the lady was calmer, everyone's hearts that had been lifting for a long time also flickered to the ground, and they came forward to serve.

What I am afraid of is that I am afraid that my wife will see my mother and sister-in-law, and I will hurt the fetus in my stomach with excitement, and if it causes premature birth, I will be happy and sad!

Happily, Madame's maiden family came over and was able to accompany Madame, which made Madame feel much more at ease.

In this case, Mrs. is afraid of bumps and wrestles, and secondly, she is afraid of ups and downs, joys and sorrows. Now the old lady and her uncle came, and they were both happy and worried.

was troubled by this little episode, everyone laughed once, diluting the sad atmosphere of reunion after a long absence, Qiu Chen wiped the tears of Mrs. Liu with a handkerchief, and also wiped his tears, and he had calmed down his feelings. The girls and ladies who were waiting around were all secretly relieved.

When she smiled like this, Mrs. Liu, Zhou, Yang Shuyong, and even the children, who were excited, also understood, and naturally laughed.

Poof...... Qiu Chen was stunned for a moment, and first couldn't help laughing!

"Mother!" Qiu Chen shouted again, reaching out to give the old lady a hug...... Halfway through, the huge belly hit Mrs. Liu's body first......

"Begonia ......" Mrs. Liu's lips trembled for a long time, and finally called out her daughter's name, and at the same time, the tears that had been restrained for a long time finally rolled down one after another, rolling out of the red eye sockets, rolling over the wrinkled cheeks, rolling down the neck, and rolling down the placket.

In the seven or eight years of "mother......hood", with or without being around, the old man's concern for his daughter has never faded. Qiu Chen also gradually forgot his previous situation, and regarded these people as his family members from his heart, and Mrs. Liu as his mother! When she first saw Mrs. Liu, she was still distressed that she couldn't scream, but now, she has long been natural and can no longer be natural, it is completely out of her heart, and there is no false reluctance.

Holding Mrs. Liu's hand, and naturally being held by Mrs. Liu, the other party's palm was dry and warm, with the roughness unique to the elderly, slowly and slightly hard to hold her hand, rubbing, a pair of eyes staring at her face, carefully scrutinized, lips trembling, trying to open a happy expression.

Standing firm, the two boys stepped back and let their aunt come forward.

Junwen Junshu naturally couldn't let his aunt step forward anymore, and helped his grandmother down from the car alone.

However, Mrs. Liu was deeper than Zhou, Zhou didn't say anything, and she naturally didn't ask directly, but after a trace of surprise and worry flashed in her eyes, she looked at her daughter with red eyes. Now he tried to blink his eyes, trying to see more clearly.

Liu also saw his daughter under the car, and he also saw Qiu Chen's thin cheeks for the first time, and then moved his eyes down to see Qiu Chen's big belly...... This belly is just too big! Doesn't it mean that seven months is less than eight months, why does it look bigger than the belly that is about to be born?

Qiu Chen had already turned his gaze back and looked at the carriage, Mrs. Liu had already walked out holding on to the door frame of the carriage, Qiu Chen shouted: "Mother! ”

Qiu Chen smiled and gave Brother Yun a reassuring look. That kid didn't recognize his life, maybe he was familiar with Zhou on the road, and at this time he naturally hugged Zhou's neck, snuggled in Zhou's arms, and grinned!

"In the blink of an eye, this kid is three years old!" Zhou sighed with emotion, stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand and hugged Brother Yun out of the carriage, looked back at Qiu Chen and said, "The last time I hugged him, he was still small and soft, not much bigger than a cat!" ”

Qiu Chen agreed and glanced at Zhou.

The two sisters-in-law shook hands and slightly moved out of the carriage two steps, and turned around...... A chubby and round figure walked out of the carriage first, looked under the car, and immediately shouted: "Mother! ”

The aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other, Qiu Chen wiped his tears, Zhou also wiped the corners of his eyes, made eye contact, and no one bothered to talk more...... Mrs. Liu was still in the car and didn't get off, and in front of a large group of people, the girl's mother-in-law was not the time to speak, nor the place to speak.

Zhou is used to doing work at home, his body is strong, and he does not get seasick or carsick, although he is a little tired along the way, it definitely does not affect his mobility. She held her sister's hand, but subconsciously held it hard, and didn't use the support of Junwen Junshu next to her, she stepped on the stool and got out of the car.

Qiu Chen smiled, and tears once again couldn't stop pouring out of his eyes and flowing down his cheeks. She shook her head and reached forward to hold her sister-in-law's hand, which was warm and dry, as in her memory.

Zhou's temperament is straight, what do you say, but she is sincerely concerned, and she completely treats Qiu Chen as her sister...... Or, half a girl and half a sister, just talking like this, Qiu Chen not only did not feel unhappy, but felt cordial and warm. This is a unique way of caring for the family, there is not so much hypocrisy and politeness, what to say, maybe not too disliked, but sincere, warm and caring.

"Sister Begonia!" Zhou's gaze also ignored a large group of people, and fell directly on Qiu Chen, and then he saw Qiu Chen's crumbling and terrifying belly, flickered in his heart, and tried to hide the surprise and worry on his face, and said with a smile, "Your body is heavy, and the light is blind, why did you run out by yourself?" ”

"Sister-in-law!" Qiu Chen stood under the car and immediately shouted when he saw Zhou.

Junwen Junshu had already turned around from the other side and came to the carriage, Junwen leaned over and lifted the curtain of the car, and without waiting for him to speak, Zhou first lowered his head and walked out of the carriage.

At this time, Ah Fu naturally came up to support his mother, Ah Man took a step behind, bent his knees to greet his uncle, and smiled and saw two cousins and a cousin. Several children are very familiar, although there are three years apart, there are not many students, and they naturally come together and follow the adults.

Qiu Chen's gaze turned from the three children to the largest carriage at the front. This is the carriage she took out, this car is the best in the Jingbei Hou Mansion, spacious and comfortable. Using it to pick up Mrs. Liu and Zhou can also make two people who have traveled long distances less bumpy.

The carriage next to it had stopped, and the coachmen jumped out of the carriage, took out the stepping stools, put them under the carriage, and then lowered their hands and stepped aside to wait.

The three children stepped forward and bowed to the ground to salute, Qiu Chen hurriedly leaned over to help, and said in a series of words: "Get up, get up quickly......" The three children saluted and then got up.

The second sister-in-law Zhao is more delicate, Junzhang and Junli are a little with Zhao's appearance, compared to the eldest brother's several boys are more delicate, and now Junli is only ten years old, and he already has the taste of a beautiful young man...... It's just because I'm happy to see my aunt and smile a little silly!

There is also a Junli boy, who hasn't seen him for three years, and has grown from an ignorant child to a handsome teenager.

When she entered Beijing, Junyan Junzhang was ten years old, and now three years have passed, and the two boys are thirteen. The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy began to develop, entering the voice change period, his voice was low and hoarse, with the unique green taste of this period, and he was the fastest. The last time Qiu Chen saw them, the two brothers were still a line shorter than her, and now they ...... Ouch, the two boys have jumped a lot taller, so they look a little taller than Yang Shuyong, and compared with Junwen Junshu next to them, they are only slightly shorter. Especially Junyan, this stunned boy has grown up with solid shoulders, and at this time, he looks slightly shorter than his two elder brothers, but his body is already very burly.

Qiu Chen looked over when he heard the voice, and his eyes immediately lit up: "Junyan Junzhang...... Rite boy? ”

"Auntie!" "Auntie......" A slightly hoarse voice followed by a crunchy little voice.

Relatives will cry with joy when they reunite after a long absence, but they will be happy after all!

Qiu Chen also rejoiced, took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on his face, and burst into a big smile.

Yang Shuyong showed a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Well, well, now I am very comfortable these days, eat well and sleep well, and naturally I will be fat!" ”

Qiu Chen subconsciously raised his hand and touched his cheek, and the tentacles were cold. She wiped away her tears indiscriminately, shook her head with a smile, moved her mouth, and said in a choked voice: "Big brother's complexion looks good!" ”

"Sister, why are you so thin...... Yang Shuyong saw his sister for the first time, and it was her thin face...... Perhaps, Qiu Chen's face is not much thinner than before, but because the Yang family knows that she is pregnant with Liujia, and most of the women who are pregnant with Liujia are fatter, so it seems that Qiu Chen has no flesh on his face...... Lose weight!
