Chapter 472: Entrustment
Wan Chun heard her talk about the unicorn, thinking that the little guy was really as good as his name, extremely smart, only four months old, you talked to him, he knew that he was smiling at you, so he also smiled: "The life of the eldest brother and sister-in-law is really enviable, you go to see other people's children every day, why don't you give birth to one yourself?" If you give birth to a child, according to the appearance of you and the third brother, you will not be worse than the unicorn. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Zhou Xiang didn't want her to make fun of herself, and couldn't help but laugh at her and said, "Phew, is this what you should say as a sister-in-law?" It's really worth fighting. ”
Wan Chun smiled: "My sister-in-law is looking forward to having a little nephew, is it wrong?" It's been half a year since you married your third brother, don't you want a child? ”
Zhou Xiang sneered and nodded Wanchun's forehead: "You, you're really used to worrying about others." You also said that my third brother and I have only been married for half a year, so why are you in a hurry to have a child? And is it my business to have a child, he is not at home, how can I give birth? I'm not the hen who lays eggs. ”
"Giggle......" Wan Chun bent over with a smile that she said, and couldn't help rubbing her stomach and said, "You muddy girl, you dare to say anything, if your mother hears it, she will definitely criticize you for not choosing your words." ”
"Amitabha, it's good that you're not your mother, and it's good that your mother can't hear the two of us."
Zhou Xiang smiled and closed his hands, seeing that Wanchun was still laughing there, he unconsciously asked her, "You live alone in this house now?" Where's Xiu'er? ”
Wan Chun rubbed her sour cheeks and said, "Xiu'er got married, she is a member of the family, where can she still live with me every day, I asked my mother to allocate another room for her and Li Hui to live in." I'm not without hands and feet, I can still take care of myself in the morning and evening, she only needs to come during the day, if Xiu'er can't be busy one day, the tourmaline in my mother's room often comes to help me take care of one or two. ”
Zhou Xiang heard this, and then said: "That's not appropriate, there is a Sister Fangfei next to my mother, it's like going to the right arm, and then going to a tourmaline, where can I take care of it?" It's better for the two of us to partner and call the green in our yard too, usually I go to school, she is lonely in the house alone, come to your Jinghong Garden, just can be a companion with you. ”
Wan Chun thought that this was a good idea, but who knew when Ji Yuan would come back? It's better to ask him to come back, just face an empty room.
Zhou Xiang said: "I also asked someone to inquire, saying that the war in the north is tight, and I am afraid that there will be more than a month of work before I can come back." ”
Wan Chun frowned, she is a person who has been to the battlefield with the army, she knows the bloody and terrible war, and she also knows the courage of the poor soldiers, it is not suitable to fight for a long time, Ji Yuan's troops are to fight the vanguard, why have they fought for months and there is no news?
She asked Zhou Xiang with a slight difficulty: "Have you ever received a letter from the third brother recently?" ”
Zhou Xiang shook his head: "There has been no letter from the north at home for a long time, and the last time I came back was in early February. ”
Now that it's the end of April, how can there be no news at all?
Wanchun said: "Big brother often walks around outside, why don't you ask big brother tomorrow morning?" ”
Zhou Xiang also had this intention, so that the two of them went to Ninghui Garden early in the morning, and happened to meet Bo Ol who was about to go out, and when he saw their two sisters-in-law, he immediately stood on his feet and nodded with a smile: "Third sister, fourth sister, why did you save it so early?" She hasn't gotten up yet. ”
Zhou Xiang also greeted him with a smile and said, "Is the eldest brother going out?" Coincidentally, there is something to entrust the eldest brother to go out and inquire, I wonder if the eldest brother can agree? ”
Bo Yu smiled: "The third sister just said it." ”
Zhou Xiang then said what he wanted him to inquire about Ji Yuan's news, Bo Ol's hand on his sleeve paused lightly, and slowly put it down: "How sooner or later is this?" ”
Zhou Xiang said: "From the beginning of February to now, it has been more than two months. ”
Bool frowned inadvertently: "Can't you receive any news at home for two months?" What about the presidential palace, have you ever been there? ”
Wan Chun shook his head and said: "I haven't been there yet, I thought it was just some remnants of Japanese soldiers who stayed in the Northeast, it's nothing, how do you know that the third brother will be gone for months." We thought that the eldest brother could know some news, but we didn't want the eldest brother to know. ”
Bo Yu said: "I'm busy with chores these days, and when Man Zhi gave birth to a child, I have to take care of their mother and son, but I didn't take care of Ji Yuan for a while. I have memorized your words, and I will inquire about them when I go out today, and then I will reply to you. ”
As he spoke, he buttoned up his hat and went out the door.
Wan Chun and Zhou Xiang didn't know what he would do, so they could only wait for his reply at home.
After Zhou Xiang spoke that day, he really took Pinglu with him and lived in Wanchun's Jinghong Garden together. Usually when she goes to class, Wanchun takes Pinglu and Xiu'er to do housework with Nalin at home, and in her spare time, in addition to taking care of Manzhi and Qilin, she carefully studies the medical books that Manzhituo brought back to her from Germany in her room.
In fact, Zhou Xiang had made a plan before, asking her to go back to medical school in the name of Deng Wan'er again.
However, because of Wanchun's divorce from Rong Shaotang, she could no longer ignore Deng Wan'er's name, and she remembered that her mother and grandfather were already old, and she was afraid that the people in the house would not take care of her, so she declined Zhou Xiang's kindness and only lived in the mansion with peace of mind.
At the beginning of summer on the fifth day of the first month, there is a custom of "tasting three fresh foods in the beginning of summer" in the old Beijing, which is to order Wanchun to go out early in the morning to buy some dishes, and to prepare to make three fresh land, three fresh trees and three fresh water.
In the old Beijing customs, Shusanxian refers to cherries, green plums and apricots, which are all seasonal fruits.
The family went to buy according to what she said, it was a weekend, and the school was also on holiday, Zhou Xiang was at home while taking the children for Manzhi, and said to Wanchun: "Is there a reply from the eldest brother?" ”
Wan Chun counted the days and passed five or six days, and said: "I met my eldest brother yesterday, he didn't say anything, maybe there is no news yet." ”
Manzhi listened to what her two sisters said, and hurriedly asked Wanchun: "What do you want to say to your eldest brother?" ”
When Wan Chun saw her, she remembered that she was the eldest lady of the Zhang family, and she might not know any news, so she said: "Sister-in-law went back to the presidential palace a while ago and heard the news about the third brother?" ”
Ji Yuan? What happened to Ji Yuan?
Man Zhi asked curiously, and Zhou Xiang said: "He led his troops out to fight, and he hasn't come back for a few months, and no letter has been sent." ”
"How can this be?" Man Zhi was surprised, "I saw Jing Dong at home when I went back that day, why hasn't Ji Yuan come back yet?" (To be continued.) )
