Chapter 31: Warmth

readx;

Some words are really difficult to speak, although Du He made up his mind and made up his mind to marry Wu Meiniang, but how to explain it to Changle and Li Xueyan has always been a big worry in his heart, making him frown and difficult to settle. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Leaving Qin Yu's residence, Du He was thinking about it, step by step, leisurely, until he reached the door of the house, and he didn't come up with a reason.

Looking up at the sky, it was already night, a bright moon was in the sky, and groups of stars were constantly twinkling in the sky, only to realize that it had reached two o'clock in the morning, that is, around half past nine in the evening, and said in my heart: "Changle and Snow Goose should have slept!" ”

The ancients did not have any special entertainment, so they had a very good grasp of work and rest. Going to bed early and getting up early has basically developed a habit, especially for poor families, who are reluctant to waste money on lamp oil, so that they can lie in bed to rest as soon as it gets dark. Changle and Li Xueyan are okay, they don't have to worry about the lamp oil money, they can be late, but half past nine is almost the limit.

With the elevation of Duhe's status and the heavy workload, he would sometimes be busy until midnight because of entertainment or business. Changle and Li Xueyan insisted on waiting for him to go home, but he couldn't bear the fatigue of the two ladies, and persuaded them again and again, but the second daughter couldn't bear the persuasion, and finally compromised, and half past nine was also the last moment of the boundary.

knocked on the door and walked into the mansion, the house was silent, and there were no servants and maids. Dufu under the moonlight looks particularly quiet, and a few chirping insects are heard on the forehead, which seems to indicate that summer is coming in advance.

Du He walked on the way to the lobby and said in his heart: "It's not early, let's wait for tomorrow, just tonight you can think about how you should open this mouth." ”

Walking closer, Du He unexpectedly found that the lobby was brightly lit, and there seemed to be traces of people, so he couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't Changle and Snow Goose go to sleep?" ”

When I came to the entrance of the lobby, I didn't feel dumb and smiled, Changle and Li Xueyan sat on the top and left, and they all fell asleep on the table, and there was a plate of their favorite osmanthus cake in front of them.

Du He stepped forward lightly and called out the names of the two men.

The second daughter did not sleep to death, and when she heard the call, she opened her eyes blankly, and her face on the table was red, leaving a mark, and her demeanor was a little untidy. Seeing Du He looking at them with a smile, the two pretty faces turned red one after another, and they were both a little embarrassed.

Changle quickly sorted out his indecent demeanor, tidied up his hair, restored the princess's bearing, and said softly: "Du Lang, you're back!" As he spoke, he took off his coat and hung it on a hanger beside him.

Du He smiled and said to the second daughter: "Didn't you say it a long time ago, don't wait for me, you are tired for me, this is so uncomfortable." ”

Li Xueyan was still shy unexpectedly, looking very embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "Today is special!" ”

Du He was puzzled, could it be a special day, think about it carefully, but it is not each other's birthdays and anniversaries.

Changle covered his mouth and chuckled: "Okay, let's talk about it!" In fact, Xue Yan personally cooked some pastries for you, and wanted Du Lang to taste them. ”

Du He's suspicious gaze drifted over Li Xueyan, and he didn't believe it, Changle just cooked, Li Xueyan was a person who hadn't even held a kitchen knife, cooking, this ...... He couldn't help but think of the murderous horror cooking skills of those heroines in the anime, and he felt a chill.

Li Xueyan noticed the suspicion in Du He's eyes, her eyebrows couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and she said indignantly: "What kind of expression are you, don't you believe me so much?" If you don't want to eat it, forget it...... I'll take it and feed the dogs! Her mouth was puffed out, like a fox with its tail stepped on, and she jumped up wildly, and reacted greatly.

Thinking of his own efforts for a month, five or six cuts on his ten fingers in exchange for everything today, which makes people so annoying, a grievance, picked up the plate of osmanthus fragrant cake on the table, and really planned to feed the dog.

Du He hurriedly stopped it, and said with a smile: "I was wrong, I was wrong, good madam, it was just a little accident for my husband, and I never thought that you would cook." I eat, I naturally want to eat, the pastries made by Mrs. herself, how can there be any reason not to eat them. His eyes are quick, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he had already taken a piece of osmanthus fragrant cake in his hand, and took a bite of it, his eyes couldn't help but light up, this osmanthus cake was sweet and refreshing, delicate and slaggy, and the cinnamon fragrance was rich, and he had grasped the essence of the pastry, perhaps not as good as those pastry chefs, but it was by no means inferior, especially the warm feeling in it, which was no matter how good the pastry master could not do.

The scraps in the hands of the *** who were still unfinished with ***, opened his mouth and said: "I still want it!" ”

Li Xueyan saw Ailang's greedy look, and all the anger disappeared, handed the pastry forward, pouted, and said, "If you don't eat it up, I won't forgive you!" ”

Du He noticed that there were some knife wounds on Li Xueyan's fingers, and grabbed the white and flawless soft wattle, and on those small hands that had never had any traces, there were a few more shocking wounds at this moment, and said uncomfortably: "Why is this so painful!" ”

Li Xueyan said quietly: "I envy Sister Changle, she can make a happy breakfast for you, but I can't do anything." I also wanted to make breakfast for Du Lang as a wife, so I learned to make it with Sister Changle. I just didn't think it was that hard, and it took me a whole month to get the hang of it. ”

"Silly girl!" Du He couldn't control himself, and hugged Li Xueyan in his arms.

Changle also complained a little: "Although we are princesses, we can't do anything, let alone help the minister, so we can only do a little bit of help." ”

Li Xueyan also nodded slightly and sighed softly.

Du He faintly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Changle and Li Xueyan seemed to be a little sentimental, and asked puzzledly: "What's wrong, what's going on?" ”

Changle and Li Xueyan shook their heads one after another, and said with a smile that it was okay.

Du He was silent for a moment, and understood something. These days, I have been too focused on the reform of Datang, ignoring the feelings of the two women, and finally being free and away from home for more than a month, I really can't live with them.

Thinking about it like this, I feel even more guilty: I have been away from home for more than a month, and I haven't been with my second daughter well, but I have the heart to marry again, and anyone will have ideas. In this way, the words that are already difficult to say are even more difficult to speak.

In fact, Du He completely misunderstood the second daughter's intentions.

Du He's intuition was not wrong, Changle and Li Xueyan did hide things in their hearts, so they were sentimental, but it was not because they were indifferent, let alone indifferent.

Du He himself may not think that in fact, he is very family-oriented, if he can go home early, he does not want to delay a moment more, and if he can have dinner with his family, he will never eat out, even if he is busy, or it is necessary to socialize, the first thing he does is to send someone home to report the news, so that the second daughter does not have to wait for him.

Even if he delayed returning home, he would ask someone to report to let his family know what he was doing.

This kind of thing is obvious in later generations, because there are mobile phones, communication is convenient, but in the ancient era when men were heaven, there were only men like Du He who cared for his family. Although this is just a trivial matter, it often fills Changle and Li Xueyan's hearts with a sense of happiness.

Although Du He sometimes leaves home for business, it is all for the country, for the Tang Dynasty, and for the people of the world, even if they are lonely, they can understand.

Being able to marry Duhe, they only have happiness and no resentment.

What really makes them sentimental is not Duhe, but themselves, their own knots, and of course they are closely related to Duhe.

There are only two words that make them like this...... No Queen!

"There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great."

This is a quote from Mencius, a sentence that has influenced two thousand years of history.

In ancient times, due to the very small population, reproduction was very important.

Especially people with status, they often marry several wives and concubines and give birth to him with more than ten or twenty sons, such as the greatest imperial leader of the Tang Dynasty, he has thirteen sons and twenty-one daughters.

However, Changle and Li Xueyan have been married to Du He for three years, and the other has been married for nearly a year, but their stomachs have not improved. If Du He is not diligent in his cultivation, it can still be a reason, but Du He, as a man with a normal sexual orientation, is not diligent in the face of two wives who are like flowers and jade, but there has been no improvement.

For this point, Du He is an afterthought, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all, although sometimes he would envy Luo Tong, Fang Yiai, etc., who had sons, but he never forced it in this matter. In his opinion, Changle and Li Xueyan are still young, only eighteen, and they have just come of age in later generations, and from a medical point of view, they have not yet reached the best production period. Giving birth at this time is considered premature, which is very dangerous, especially in the harsh medical environment in ancient times. One of his students even did a survey and believed that the infant mortality rate of the ancients was as high as 40%, which is a very terrifying number.

For the sake of Changle and Li Xueyan's bodies, Du He decided to go with the flow, if he is pregnant, then he will be born, and it is good news that he is not pregnant, he is not in a hurry, his career has not been successful, what should he do in such a hurry to have a child.

This is a typical thought of later generations, which is exactly at odds with the anxious thoughts of Changle and Li Xueyan. The second daughter has tried all methods, but to no avail.

For this matter, not only Changle and Li Xueyan are anxious, but also Du He's mother Zhang.

This grandmother's mood of looking forward to the birth of her grandson is not an eagerness to explain.

Every time the second daughter went to Cai Guogong's Mansion to visit the second elder, the Zhang family couldn't help mentioning this matter, this was not only the Zhang family's urgency, but even Li Shimin and Li Zongdao, the two fathers, were also worried about their daughter's stomach, which made the second daughter embarrassed, and the pressure was even greater.

After a long period of accumulation, the mood naturally becomes sentimental.
