Chapter 473: Joy Lin'er
"Is the baby bothering you today?" Jiang Zhan came back from outside, so he went to the room to see Xue Yao's mother and son first.
"Our children are very well-behaved, but they don't know who they look like, and they cry as soon as they leave me." Xue Yao said with a doting face.
Originally, Xue Yao and Jiang Zhan had discussed taking care of the child by themselves earlier, after all, she didn't like to let the child stay by the nurse and maid as soon as it was born.
She is different from those official wives, she handles the affairs of the house very well, even if she is in confinement now, there is no place for the slightest chaos.
"The son clings to his mother because he knows what you have done to him." Jiang Zhan thinks it's good for the child.
"If in two years, you're not happy about it, don't blame me for not following it." Xue Yaochen glanced at him and said.
"When the baby grows up, it will naturally start to be enlightened." Jiang Zhan frowned.
Now that the child is just a baby under the age of a month, there is no problem with sticking to Xue Yao.
However, if he grew up and was still like this, Jiang Zhan would not be happy.
Xue Yao knew that he would definitely be a strict father, but she cherished this child who had suffered a lot of sins in her stomach, so she glanced at him with disgust and said, "Let's talk about the baby's enlightenment later, tomorrow is the day of washing, are you ready?" ”
"This time, I'm only going to ask a few people close to me to respond to the situation." She was still weak, in fact, Jiang Zhan didn't plan to hold the three banquets.
However, this is the rule, and it is also the blessing of everyone to the child.
So he still ordered someone to prepare.
Xue Yao felt that his idea was very good, and he had no objection at all.
She is different from others, and she thinks that for the sake of the child, she must hold a big washing banquet.
Xue Yao is a person who doesn't like trouble, and when the baby is most important, as long as they and other people who sincerely wish the baby good health are present.
As for other people who didn't have much friendship, Xue Yao didn't want to be false with them.
The next day, there were many people who came to Shangshu Mansion to congratulate, and Jiang Zhan directly ordered someone to bring them to the hall.
When it was time to wash the three, the nurse took the child out.
Although it was only three days, his skin was much whiter and tenderer than before, not at all like the wrinkled little monkey when he was born.
"You and Miss Xue are both extremely good-looking, and the child must be a handsome person in the future." Zheng Yuer was overjoyed to see their children.
Although she has never been married, she is very fond of children.
Now Zheng Yuer is almost eighteen years old, but she has never been engaged.
There are many people who go to the Zheng family to propose marriage, but they don't want their wives to get married, and they still come out to do business.
Zheng Yuer is the daughter of the imperial businessman, so those who go to propose marriage are all said to be the children of the official eunuchs.
She had no interest in men who treated their wives as private property.
Zheng Yufeng also forced her, after all, among his children, only Zheng Yuer inherited his means of doing business.
Now most of the Zheng family's business is her idea.
After Zheng Yuer hugged the child for a while, she went directly to the inner room to find Xue Yao.
"Your son is so cute." When she passed, Xue Yao happened to be leaning on the bed and reading a book boredly.
"I've heard people say that when you're in confinement, you can't read, otherwise it will hurt your eyes in the future." Zheng Yu'er frowned.
"It's okay, I'll just watch it for a while, and when the baby comes back, I'll put it down." Now that Jiang Zhan has almost taken care of everything in the house, she has nothing to do.
When the child is around, Xue Yao can also tease her son, even if she just watches him sleep, she will not feel bored.
"People say that when a woman becomes a mother, it is not the same as before, I didn't believe it before, but now that I see you, I believe it." Zheng Yuer quipped.
"I can't get out of bed during confinement, I have someone to do everything for me, and I lie down all day, and my bones are about to fall apart." Xue Yao had never been in bed for so long.
In fact, her body has almost recovered, and the system has helped her adjust it earlier, so Xue Yao is different from other women who have just given birth.
She was completely able to get out of bed the next day, and Murong Shi had made some pills before she gave birth, which was specially left for her to replenish her body.
"Seeing you so happy, I also want to find a wishful husband as soon as possible!" Zheng Yuer walks outside all the year round, and her words are not as taboo as those of boudoir women.
What's more, just her and Xue Yao in front of her, and the people who were waiting for them also went out.
"I heard that some time ago, a five-grade editor of the Hanlin Academy invited someone to come to the door to propose marriage?" Zheng Yuer was the first best friend she made in ancient times.
The two often meet in private, and Xue Yao has always been very concerned about her lifelong events.
"Don't mention it, although he wants to be engaged to me, but he can't accept it, I manage the family's business." Zheng Yuer said in distress.
Although she has an older brother, she is a lazy and incompetent person, and her father said that after he is a hundred years old, he will hand over the Zheng family's business to her to take care of.
However, once she gets married, her husband will never agree.
After all, she is taking care of the business, but all the proceeds belong to the Zheng family, and she can only get a part of the dividends.
Zheng Yuer is also afraid of finding a greedy person, and her family will have no peace in the future.
"So, does Master Zheng want you to recruit you?" Xue Yao also knows the scenery of the Zheng family, and now Zheng Yuer and her father are supporting it.
"But I have an elder brother at home, if I recruit a burden, my sister-in-law is afraid that she will never agree." Zheng Yuer shook her head and said.
Xue Yao was also quite hesitant about her affairs, but she couldn't help her.
The marriage of her daughter's family is something that she and her parents need to weigh.
"Don't talk about these unhappy things, now my mother is already looking at me for me, and I just hope that someone with a big heart can continue to take care of business after I get married!" Zheng Yuer sighed.
"Yes." Didn't she just meet one?
After the three banquets, the emperor waited for Jiang Zhan to return to the court to deal with official business.
As a result, he has been taking care of Xue Yao and the children at home, and he has no consciousness of being a courtier at all, and the emperor is very annoyed by his attitude.
However, he also knew that Jiang Zhan was in his twenties before becoming a father, so he naturally couldn't let go of his children in his heart.
So, the emperor waited for a few more days, but after Jiang Zhan took the initiative to return to the Criminal Department, he immediately sent someone to his mansion to spread the word and asked Jiang Zhan to go to the imperial study to face the saint.
"Your Majesty!" Jiang Zhan only had his wife and children in his heart and eyes, and subconsciously ignored the matter of returning to the court.
"Jiang Aiqing, I know that you are happy to win Lin'er, and my heart must be happy, but you must not forget your duty." The emperor's face was full of helplessness.
He was a sane man, and even when he had his first child, he never lost his temper about it.
"Please forgive your majesty, Weichen was happy for a while, and delayed the matter of the criminal department!" In fact, when Jiang Zhan saw the chief eunuch beside the emperor, he knew that he could not continue and stayed in the mansion to take care of his wife and children.
"The affairs of the Criminal Department, you arranged it very well before, and now there is no chaos, but as a courtier, you must not ignore the government for personal matters!" The emperor reminded.
"Wechen will go to the morning court on time tomorrow." Although Jiang Zhan is reluctant to have his wife and children, he is still rational in his heart.
What's more, he can see the child every day when he goes back, and now it's time for him to return to the court.
"If only you understood." The emperor knew that he was measured, so he didn't say more.
The next day, Jiang Zhan went directly to the court.
When he came out of the palace, he immediately went to the criminal department.
Recently, there has been no major incident in the capital, and the criminal department has piled up some small cases, and others have handled it well, Jiang Zhan has sealed the case after reading the file.
A month later, after Xue Yao was out of confinement, Murong Shi decided to leave.
"You're leaving the capital?" Xue Yao and Jiang Zhan both felt a little sudden.
"I want to find an old man who saved me when I was a child, and he was the one who sent me to Master to learn medicine, but unfortunately he entrusted me to Master and left......" For so many years, Murong Shi has never been able to find his trace.
"Do you have news of him?" Jiang Zhan didn't expect that he would have such a past.
"I received news that he is in Chuzhou right now." Murong Shi is not sure whether the news is true or false now, but he still plans to go over in person.
After all, if Grandpa Zhou hadn't been there, he would have died a long time ago.
Now that Grandpa Zhou is over sixty years old, he has to find the other party as soon as possible and take care of him.
After Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao understood what happened, they deliberately practiced it for him.
When Murong Shi left, Jiang Zhan and his wife took the child and sent him to the city gate.
Since Xue Yao gave birth, Murong Shi has been living in the mansion and taking care of their children, and she doesn't know when she will see each other again.
"Take care all the way." After Jiang Zhan and him glanced at each other, everything was silent.
The two have known each other for ten years, and Murong Shi had only followed his master for less than two years, and at that time they were both children who were not wanted by their parents, and they quickly became friends after they met.
Some of Murong Shi's martial arts were still learned with Jiang Zhan.
After bidding farewell to Murong Shi, Jiang Zhan and his wife received an edict from the emperor as soon as they returned to the mansion.
He hurriedly changed into court clothes and entered the palace.
As a result, when he met the emperor, he realized that the person who wanted to see him was actually the queen mother.
"Weichen participates in the Queen Mother." As soon as Jiang Zhan finished saluting, the Queen Mother anxiously asked about Murong Shi.
"Murong Shi still lives in your mansion now?" The Queen Mother said with excitement on her face, "You have known him for so long, do you know his identity?" ”
"Wechen just sent Murong back from the city, he has some things to do, I'm afraid he won't return to the capital in a short time, As for his life experience, Wechen has never asked." Jiang Zhan felt that friends should not care too much about each other's backgrounds.
"How did you meet Murong Shi?" The Queen Mother didn't expect him to leave.
"When Weichen went up the mountain, he accidentally ran into Murong ...... who was collecting medicine in the mountain" In fact, their acquaintance was very simple.
It's just that he helped Murong Shi, who almost fell into the trap, and the two have known each other since then, and they should gradually become friends.
When the Queen Mother heard that Murong Shi had gone into the mountains to collect medicine since she was a child, a trace of distress crossed her eyes.
Jiang Zhan felt that the Queen Mother seemed to be particularly concerned about Murong Shi's life experience, and she was extremely concerned about his affairs.
Could it be that the two have something to do with each other?
He had many doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask more, but respectfully waited for the Queen Mother to ask.
