The next morning, Xu Jinyu received a message from Chen Yuanzhao's order.

"Last night, I reached a verbal agreement with King Qin, and King Qin promised to let Xu Zheng go. This statement cannot be fully believed, and Xu Zheng is advised to be more careful. In the short term, the application is safe and worry-free. ”

In just a few words, Xu Jinyu looked at it several times, and the boulder that had been hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground.

King Qin's promise may not have been willing, perhaps under the guise of turning his face with Chen Yuanzhao after ascending the throne. However, at least this difficulty has passed.

Xu Jinyu went to Xu Zheng's yard.

The courtyard of the brother and sister is next to each other, separated by only a wall, and they are only a few steps away.

Xu Zheng was writing an article with his head down, and when he heard the sound of pushing the door, he smiled without raising his head: "Sister, it's not yet noon, why are you here." ”

Xu Zheng devoted himself to reading and preparing for the spring festival of the coming year. In addition to three meals a day, he rarely goes out of the study room, and he reads until midnight every night. Xu Jinyu couldn't persuade him, so she simply stopped persuading him, and took care of his food, clothing and daily life every day. Three meals a day, I came to the study regularly to ask Xu Zheng to eat. That's why Xu Zheng laughed like this.

Xu Jinyu smiled: "Can't I come until noon?" ”

Xu Zheng put down the book in his hand and looked up at Xu Jinyu with a smile: "Who said you can't come." I'm tired of reading, you came just in time, I'll talk to you and rest for a while. ”

Xu Jinyu pursed her lips and smiled, stepped forward, and gave Xu Zheng the note in her hand.

Xu Zheng hurriedly looked at it, and his eyes lit up.

"Big brother, King Qin has promised in front of Chen Yuanzhao. I don't think I think anything more about you until I ascend the throne. It's all fine in a year or two. Xu Jinyu's eyes were full of relief.

Xu Zheng nodded: "I'll talk about the future later, and I don't have to worry about it all the time." He asked coldly, "You went to see Hanyu yesterday." Did you meet Chen Yuanzhao? ”

Xu Jinyu: ""

Xu Jinyu's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she didn't dare to look at Xu Zheng with a weak heart.

This is what it looks like. Undoubtedly by default.

Xu Zheng was a little unhappy in his heart, of course, this unhappiness was mainly aimed at the pervasive Chen: "Although the two of you have affection for each other, after all, you haven't decided on a family affair yet." The melon field and Li Xia should always avoid suspicion. If the family doesn't work, as a woman, it will be a big loss. ”

Xu Jinyu didn't have the courage to defend herself, let alone sue Xu Zheng, she really suffered a lot yesterday

Xu Zheng felt sorry for Xu Jinyu in the end, and he was reluctant to embarrass her, so he immediately slowed down his tone: "If he wants to see you in the future." Let him visit him seriously, and I will never stop him from seeing you. ”

Of course, it doesn't hurt to see each other, but you don't have to be alone.

Before getting married, you must not let your sister be taken advantage of.

Xu Jinyu obediently agreed

In the afternoon, visitors came to the Zou family's old house.

"What? Cousin Yu is here? Xu Jinyu was surprised and delighted.

Chu Xia smiled and responded: "Yes, Mrs. is talking with Grandma Li Ershao!" The lady sent someone to ask the lady to come over. ”

Xu Jinyu responded with a smile, got up and walked out.

The two hadn't seen each other for many days, and they were very happy to meet at this moment. Zou knew that the two of them had always been good friends. When they met, they must have something to say, so they got up and said with a smile: "You two talk, I won't be here to accompany you, so as not to make you uncomfortable talking." ”

After Zou leaves. Xu Jinyu took Ji Yu's hand, looked up and down a few times, and joked with a smile: "Cousin Yu." Isn't your belly pregnant yet? ”

Ji Yu pursed her lips and smiled: "It's less than three months old, and the pregnancy is not obvious." ”

"Less than three months pregnant. The fetus is still unstable, and it should be recuperated in the house. Why did you come here in a carriage on purpose? Xu Jinyu said with concern.

Ji Yu smiled: "I heard that the eldest brother is in poor health. Today, I went back to visit my eldest brother. Only then did I know that you had moved out of the Hou Mansion. That's why I have come to visit you. ”

When she returned to the Hou Mansion today, Ji Yu was really surprised to hear that the mother and son of the Xu family had moved away. I used to live well, why did I suddenly move away? There must be something hidden in this.

asked Ji Yu, Ji Yu looked dazed and didn't know anything. asked Ji Ze, Ji Ze kept a calm face and said nothing. As for Xiao Zou's side, Ji Yu didn't even ask, so she simply went to Zou's house to ask what was going on.

"Is it the subordinates who are intent on snubbing you? Or are you talking behind your back? That's why you moved out? Ji Yu asked with a frown.

Xu Jinyu responded: "Not really. After living in the Hou Mansion for so long, the subordinates in the Hou Mansion have never neglected it. ”

"Why is that?" Ji Yu asked, "Is it that the third sister has something unpleasant with you?" ”

"I get along very well with Cousin Yu, nothing unpleasant." Xu Jinyu quickly said, "Cousin, don't be careful. Nothing particular about it. The eldest brother learned about Yuan in the exam, and then devoted himself to studying and preparing for the spring festival. We couldn't always borrow the Hou Mansion, so we moved out of the Hou Mansion and lived in the Zou family's old house. Because I was in a hurry, I didn't have time to let you know first. No wonder you're so surprised. ”

Ji Yu is smart and keen, and she can't be fooled with just a few words.

However, Xu Jinyu had already said so, and it was inconvenient for her to get to the bottom of it, so she sighed lightly and said, "That's it, since you have already moved out, it is useless to say more." Don't forget to move around a lot. In the future, my stomach will gradually show its pregnancy, and it will be inconvenient for me to come out of the house to find you."

"Then I'll go to Li's house to visit you." Xu Jinyu's fast interface.

Ji Yu smiled dumbly, and all the regrets and unhappiness in her heart dissipated: "Okay, don't forget to come to see me often in the future." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and they put the topic aside with a tacit understanding, and turned to gossip.

Since Ji Yu got married, there have been many fewer opportunities for the two to meet. I see each other occasionally, and there are many people around me. It's been a long time since I've been alone and chatting like I am today, and it's naturally relaxed and pleasant.

Ji Yu gradually pulled the topic to Ji Ze's body: "Today I went back to visit my eldest brother and asked about my eldest brother's condition, but my eldest brother refused to elaborate. The face is not good-looking. He also threw a few tantrums at me. ”

For the arrogant Ji Ze, the qiē that night was probably an unforgettable shame. I don't want people to ask about it at all.

Xu Jinyu secretly sneered in her heart, and comforted Ji Yu in her mouth: "The son of the world is sick in bed. It's inevitable that you're in a bad mood, and you don't have to take it personally. ”

Ji Yu sighed lightly: "The Ji family has really had a lot of trouble recently. The sister-in-law is recuperating with fetal gas, the eldest brother is sick, and even the mother is unwell these days."

Is Xiao Zou sick?

Xu Jinyu's eyes flashed, and she asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Cousin, what is my aunt's illness?" ”

Ji Yu didn't have any deep feelings for Xiao Zou, and she didn't see much worry when she mentioned her condition: "When I went back today, I saw that my mother's face was not good and she had decreased a lot, so I asked a few questions. Mother said it was cold. Poor appetite these days. When we ate together at noon, my mother's face changed when she smelled the food, and she was nauseous and vomited after a few bites. It seems that the illness is not light."

Smell the food and change your face?

How many bites of hasty eating are nauseous and vomiting?

Xu Jinyu's heart moved, and a vague thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

In this life, because of her rebirth, many things have been affected. Could it be that Xiao Zou was pregnant a few months earlier than in his previous life?

"My mother was going to ask the doctor to come to check her pulse in the afternoon, and I wanted to stay with my mother. However, she said it was no big deal. He also said that I was pregnant, and that I should not work. Let me go home early. After I had lunch, I simply came to you. Ji Yu didn't notice the strangeness in Xu Jinyu's expression, and told her about going back home today.

"My father has been at the border for 10 years, and he sends a letter back every month. When my father left. The third sister is still a three-year-old child, and she probably can't even remember what her father looks like. For so many years, the affairs of the house have been supported by my mother. She's working really hard, too. Although I am not close to her, I also hope that she will be healthy. ”

Speaking of which, later. Ji Yu couldn't help but sigh: "The eldest brother is about to be on duty in the palace when he is sick, and only his mother, sister-in-law and third sister are left in the house." One is sick. A fetus should not be worried. The third sister is not young, but she is an impetuous and reckless character, and she can't afford the trivial things in the house. It's really worrying. ”

It would be nice if the mother and son of the Xu family still lived in the Hou Mansion. At least I can help take care of the chores in the house. Now that the Xu family has moved out of the Hou Mansion, Ji Yu naturally doesn't want to mention these things.

Xu Jinyu didn't hear the regret in Ji Yu's tone, and smiled and comforted: "My aunt has always been in good health, and she occasionally feels cold, as long as she rests for a few days, Cousin Yu doesn't have to worry." ”

I hope so! Ji Yu tugged at the corners of her lips

Towards evening, Ji Yu returned to the Li Mansion.

"It's so late, why don't you leave Sister Yu for dinner before leaving." Zou sneered.

Xu Jinyu explained: "My cousin is less than three months pregnant, and her pregnancy is still unstable. If I leave her for dinner, she will have to rush back to Li's house at night, and it will be inconvenient to take the carriage in the dark. That's why I didn't leave dinner. ”

After hearing this, Zou nodded again and again: "What you said makes sense." A pregnant woman is the most delicate, and it is better not to travel at night. ”

It's a shame to say that if the wheel is careful, she, the mother, is not as good as her daughter.

Xu Jinyu was full of worries about another matter: "Mother, I heard from my cousin today that my aunt has been in poor health these days. It's time for us to come and visit us with gifts. ”

When Zou heard that Xiao Zou was sick, he didn't feel distressed. The love between the sisters disappeared as early as when he learned that Xiao Zou had a plan for his own children. Now her heart is full of hatred and anger.

However, since the face is not torn, the movement and etiquette between relatives are indispensable.

"Let's prepare some gifts and go to the Hou Mansion tomorrow." Zou Shi thought about it for a while, and then made a decision: "Tell Sù Zheng'er about this!" Let him go with him. ”

Xu Jinyu said: "My aunt is sick, let's just go and visit." It's inconvenient for the eldest brother to ask more, so it's embarrassing. Besides, the eldest brother has been studying hard behind closed doors recently, and he doesn't want to go out, so don't bother him. ”

Xiao Zou is narrow-minded and must compare, and he has a deep love for Ji Ze. Knowing that Ji Ze was calculated and humiliated, it was strange not to hate Xu Zheng to the bone.

Xu Zheng is still showing up in front of Xiao Zou. lest Xiao Zou make any irrational moves under an impulse!

Zou didn't have much opinion, and when he heard Xu Jinyu say this, he felt quite reasonable, and nodded in response

The next morning, Zou ordered Steward Zhao to prepare gifts and visit Xiao Zou.

Steward Zhao was valued by Mrs. Zou back then, so he became a housekeeper. Steward Zhao is grateful to Mrs. Zou and loyal to the Zou family. Although Zou has been married for many years, he still calls him a big lady.

As for the little Zou family, Steward Zhao disagreed. Although Xiao Zou married a good family, and his status is far better than that of Zou, in the eyes of Steward Zhao, he only respects the eldest lady.

Steward Zhao prepared a decent and not grand gift for Xiao Zou.

When Xu Jinyu listened to Steward Zhao's report, she couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

The old and loyal housekeeper Zhao is really upright and cute.

"Steward Zhao," Xu Jinyu suddenly came up with an idea, and said with a smile: "My aunt is sick and has a bad appetite, I want to bring some delicious and appetizing food to the door to express my feelings." Do you have fish and shrimp in your kitchen today? ”

Steward Zhao replied with a smile: "Coincidentally, the steward who purchased the kitchen today happened to buy a basket of live shrimp and came back." It's very fresh. I wonder how Miss Yu plans to bring it over? ”

It is obviously not appropriate to bring fresh live shrimp to visit the patient.

Xu Jinyu smiled slightly: "It's good to have fresh shrimp, Rue Xiang next to me is the best at cooking, let her go to the kitchen, use fresh shrimp as raw materials to make a fresh and delicious dish, put it in the food box and bring it over." ”

As he spoke, he commanded Ruxiang.

Rue Xiang took the order and went to the kitchen.

Zou found this a bit cumbersome.

Is there anything delicious in the Hou Mansion? Moreover, even if he brought food to the door, Xiao Zou might not be willing to eat it. However, seeing that his daughter was full of interest, Zou couldn't bear to pour cold water.

Rue Xiang was clever and skillful, and in less than half an hour, she prepared a dish and put it in a beautiful food box.

Zou led Xu Jinyu into the carriage and arrived at the Weining Marquis Mansion near noon. The concierge saw the Zou mother and daughter, and was quite enthusiastic, and while sending someone to deliver a letter to the little Zou family, he personally led them into the house.

After only a few days, when I entered the Weining Hou Mansion again, my mood was completely different. It is unknown whether Zou is embarrassed in his heart, but Xu Jinyu is full of emotion in his heart.

It was a prison for her, full of painful and dark memories. Now, with all his might, he finally escaped. Returning to the Weining Marquis Mansion today, of course, is not as simple as visiting Xiao Zou's family. It is more important to determine whether Xiao Zou is pregnant

Xu Jinyu silently calculated in his heart, and he and the Zou family soon arrived at Tinglan Courtyard. (To be continued......)
