"The prince is playing with the children in the back room!"

Mother Xu said with a smile on her face.

Lin Yu'an's footsteps stopped at the door of the inner room, and he pricked up his ears to listen to the sound in the room.

"Meow, I'm a cat, big black cat......"

Then the laughter of his son Brother Sheng sounded: "Daddy is so white, it's not a big black cat!" ”

But suddenly there was a loud cry of a baby, and Lin Yu'an hurriedly walked in.

And then...... I saw Yu Jia sitting on the edge of the bed covered with a thick brocade quilt, sitting on the ground, holding Ping'an, and on the bed, Brother Sheng and Sister Shu, the two little guys, were sitting there, holding their fleshy little hands and about to clap, and they were so frightened by Ping'an's sudden cry that they sat there and didn't move.

The inexplicable warmth in the room made Lin Yu'an feel an inexplicable peace of mind and happiness...... There is also a deep attachment.

Although Ping'an is not their child, neither of them treats her as an outsider, she is like a member of Sister Shu'er Sheng'er, living in such a warm home, as if she has become one of them.

But this good times were short-lived.

The snow in winter is always like the continuous rain in the Huangmei season, and the sky is gloomy for a while.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching, although this is a good year, it is still a little worrying that it is inconvenient to travel.

Since the sixteenth day of the lunar month, Yu Jia has not gone out, saying that the imperial court has taken annual leave and waited until the first day of the Lunar New Year to go again.

Lin Yu'an only felt happy, Yu Jia finally had time to be idle, he finally had time to tease the children and take a quiet rest.

But from that night, Yu Jia began to cough.

Lin Yu'an couldn't help but worry, afraid that he was suffering from the cold, so he hurriedly asked Nanyu to invite Lang Zhonglai, and the two doses of medicine had no effect, and Lin Yu'an asked Yu Jia's pair of cards to invite the imperial doctor in the palace to come and take a look.

The imperial doctor, who didn't say that he was ugly, prescribed two doses of medicine as usual, but within a few days, Wei Feng came to her with red eyes.

Lin Yu'an was very surprised, and said that who he followed was like whom, his temperament was somewhat similar to Yu Jia, he didn't smile on weekdays, he was a cold-faced person, and it was rare to say two words to him.

What is he doing now when he comes to himself?

For no reason, Lin Yu'an's heart jumped, thinking of Yu Jia, who was still lying on the bed.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Yu'an asked with a little uneasiness in his voice.

Feng Feng suddenly knelt down, this inexplicable move made Lin Yu'an startled, and she couldn't help but take two steps back.

"What are you doing here?"

The hanging head of the wind slowly lifted, and his face was already full of tears.

Lin Yu'an's heartbeat seemed to miss a beat, and he muttered in his mouth: "Lord, Lord, Lord...... He has run out of oil and the lamp is dry, and time is running out, so the princess should accompany the prince more......"

He couldn't help but tremble all over, Lin Yu'an was stunned, although she knew that sooner or later there would be this day, but she didn't expect this day to come so early.

That young man, is he going to break his word?

Lin Yu'an thought that she would definitely cry to death, but at this moment, she was unusually calm, as if Wei Feng had just come to tell her that the prince had something to do today and would not come back for dinner.

"I see."

Lin Yu'an silently turned around, walked to the Bogu shelf by the moon window, and casually took off a blue and white porcelain white background embossed flower gourd on it, and gently wiped it with a handkerchief.

Seeing this, Feng Feng stood up, walked out step by step with heavy steps.

The footsteps were far away, but the porcelain vase in Lin Yu'an's hand slipped to the ground, but she didn't seem to hear the piercing cracking sound, and walked numbly into the snow, and Zhou Qiaoer and Nanyu, who were guarding the door, were frightened.

The princess is still pregnant, and if it freezes on this cold day, they will be to blame.

The two of them stepped forward together to persuade Lin Yu'an, "Princess, princess, go into the house quickly, it's cold outside, and you're still pregnant!" ”

As if her ears were stuffed with a ball of cotton, Lin Yu'an felt that these sounds seemed to be far away from her, but when she turned around and saw Zhou Qiao'er and Nan Yu almost crying in a hurry, she felt that it was so real.

She didn't know how she got back to the main room, and she pretended to be busy in the room as if nothing happened.

Yu Jia didn't notice anything unusual, except for feeling weak and always sleepy, there was nothing uncomfortable.

He lay on the bed in a daze, pillowing a large pillow with a high green bamboo pattern, and looked at a small book called "Zhou Guolie's Travels" at the bedside.

This was originally bought by Lin Yu'an in order to relieve boredom, but Yu Jia looked at it but became interested, according to his previous temperament, he must have read it in one go, who knew that this time he just looked at it, his eyelids were fighting, and his eyes couldn't be opened.

The door creaked, Nan Yu lifted the curtain, and Lin Yu'an lowered his head slightly and entered the house.

She was holding a yellow glazed peacock with a painted pattern in her hand, Yu Jia couldn't help frowning when she looked at it, and then stretched it out.

"Here, get some soup."

Drink some soup? Yu Jia's head is as big as a bucket, the soup he has drunk in the past few days is almost as good as what he has drunk for half his life, and he has to drink two or three cups every day, no matter who he is, he will be tired, right?

Yu Jia shook his head in protest, Lin Yu'an let Nan Yu carry the bowl, and he took a thick soft pillow to cushion Yu Jia's back higher.

Yu Jia had a bitter face, looking like he was being slaughtered, Lin Yuan said: "It's about to be the New Year, you don't want to hurry up, take us to the streets when the time comes, every year there is a charade game in the capital, let's go for a walk when the time comes." ”

Yu Jia's heart was sour, this girl had been married to him for four years, but he had never spent a good New Year with her, and he never waited for her to go out to play during the New Year's holidays.

A burst of guilt welled up in his heart, and he couldn't help hugging Lin Yu'an's waist, and said in a muffled voice: "Marry me, let you suffer." ”

Lin Yu'an was a little at a loss, and she gently patted Yu Jia's back with some surprise.

"Don't be bitter, you treat me very well."

Lin Yu'an's voice also became a little choked.

She never thought that when she got married in the future, her husband would say such things to her, and her heart was confused, soft, and she felt an indescribable feeling.

Yu Jia smiled, and there was a flash of water in his eyes.

The palace heard that Yu Jia was sick, and the next day he sent someone to send a tonic, there are three ginseng roots in a hundred years, and there is no need to say that the royal family is really different, let alone a hundred years of ginseng, if there are ten years of ginseng, it is good, if it is better, there may be one or two ginseng of about thirty years.

But the longer this thing is, the more the medicinal power cannot be underestimated, and things like ginseng are a great supplement, and when a woman gives birth to a child, she just takes one or two tablets to boost her life and continue her life.

Looking at the two very beautiful ginseng sticks, Zhou Qiao'er couldn't close her mouth in surprise, she said to Nanyu on the side: "Sister Nanyu, I heard that the older this thing is, the more spiritual it is, I heard that in Lingnan Mountain, if you find this kind of thing, you have to go to the temple and invite the red thread that has been enshrined in front of the Buddha, and tie it with the red thread, otherwise in a few months, this thing will run away and you can't find it." ”

Nanyu was also surprised, is this just a medicinal herb? How did she say it as if she had a long leg, she opened her mouth wide, "How is it possible, this is just an herb, and there are no long legs, you heard the book about it, right?" ”

Listening to the two maids muttering in a low voice, Lin Yu'an couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, and the haze of several days seemed to have been dispelled a lot.

It's always good to have two people around who love to be lively, otherwise I'm afraid that life will be dull and boring.

I haven't seen Mrs. Fang's mother and daughter in the past two days, I heard that Lin Yuqing was sick, and she suffered from the wind and cold when she went out.

It's best if they don't make any trouble, she hasn't had time for Yu Jia's business in the past two days, and if they do anything else, she will be tired of coping.

Fortunately, she is not afraid, anyway, no matter what the mother and daughter do, they can't hide it from her, and she doesn't believe that the two of them can make any waves.

I heard that Yueqiu came back and said that Mrs. Fang and Lin Yuqing went to Yaowang Street that day, and the shopkeeper said that they bought medicine to treat bone pain, but would she believe such a statement?

Of course, it is not impossible to have that possibility, after all, when I was in Nanshuizhuang, because the south of the Yangtze River was humid and rainy, every time it rained in April, the eldest lady would have a headache, leg pain, low back pain or something, and it was very troublesome.

Lin Yu'an didn't want to go back to the inner room immediately, Yu Jia should still be asleep at this time, and she would disturb him when she went in, so she simply sat down on the big kang near the window behind the pear lattice fan.

Nan Yu led people to move down the heavy kang table, and went to carry out the crane head peach pattern stove burning in the house, and hung a curtain against the wind on the hollow pear lattice fan.

The slightest chill that originally overflowed from the crack in the door was completely blocked out, and the room was as warm as spring, Lin Yu'an was as comfortable as a kitten, nested in a soft wolf blanket, and the thick cushion under her body made people feel comfortable and want to squint.

Lin Yu'an didn't expect that he would fall asleep in a daze.

When she woke up, it was already noon, and she sat up in shock, only to find a person lying beside her.

I don't know when, Yu Jia slipped out of the inner room and got to Lin Yu'an's side, like a little milk dog all the time, curled up beside her, her chin shrunk in her neck socket, sleeping sweetly, Lin Yu'an was worried about Yu Jia just now, and he got up too quickly, so he woke Yu Jia up.

He opened his eyes a little dazed, and looked at Lin Yu'an, like a child, with a little dissatisfaction, a little lazy, and a little stupid in his eyes...... Lovely.

Lin Yu'an was a little weak by him, smiled hehehe, lowered his head and helped him tuck the quilt again, and asked him, "Why did you come out, is the bed inside uncomfortable?" ”

Yu Jia stared at Lin Yu'an tightly, his eyes were soft, he shook his head with a smile, and said with an innocent face: "It's too cold inside, I can't sleep alone." ”

Lin Yu'an was stunned, is this an excuse? There is a dragon burning in the inner room, and there is a stove, this man actually said...... Say the inner room is too cold?

Lin Yu'an looked at Yu Jia with a smile, Yu Jia also looked at her with a blank eye, she couldn't help but say: "Okay, okay, I'll not be cold with you." ”

Zhou Qiao'er greeted Zhou Qiao'er with a smile from outside the door: "Mother Xu, it's cold, why don't you take a soup woman?" ”

Mother Xu said with a smile: "It's so close, what kind of soup woman, I'll come over and ask the princess, the three little masters are still waiting for me to go back." ”

When Xu's mother entered the house, Lin Yu'an had already gotten up and walked out, she saw Lin Yu'an, she looked up and down, and saw that she was fine, so she asked: "Princess, what is wrong with your body today?" ”

Lin Yu'an has no problem except that her appetite is not very good and her mood is wilting these days, she shook her head, and Mother Xu reached out to probe her pulse.

After a while, Mother Xu said, "Princess, you have to take care of your stomach, don't worry too much and hurt your body." ”

Lin Yu'an smiled bitterly and nodded, "Mother Xu is here, but what's the matter with the children?" ”

Because he came safely, Lin Yu'an asked people to move out the three rooms on the west side of the room, clean and repair them again, and let Xu's mother lead the three nurses, as well as a group of maids, who take care of the children on weekdays.

Because Yu Jia has been sick in the past few days, and the children are still young, Yu Jia said that the children should stay in the house, and don't carry them to the main house, for fear of getting sick.

I think Yu Jia didn't know about his illness himself, thinking it was just an ordinary wind cold, but it was okay like this, lest he think too much, but it would not be good.

Mother Xu said: "No, it's a trivial matter, I just want to ask, do you want to go to the county lord's mansion to meet a few uncles of the Wang family during the Chinese New Year this year?" ”

If Mother Xu didn't say it, Lin Yu'an wouldn't have thought of visiting the county lord and second uncle of Anning at all.

The little affection of the Wang family has long since dissipated with the death of his grandmother and the departure of the third aunt and third uncle, which is why Lin Yu'an has not walked around with the Wang family for so many years.

Lin Yu'an sighed, feeling that this white cloud and dog are impermanent, and in the blink of an eye, she has been married for many years.

Those past grievances and grievances seem to have become insignificant.

Lin Yu'an sighed and nodded, "Well, let's send some New Year's gifts this year, let's talk about anything else, now the prince is still sick, and the children are still too young, and I don't have the heart to go to the door." ”

Mother Xu also nodded, "I also think that the children don't have a serious elder, and they feel cold and lonely during the New Year's Festival, since the princess has her own concerns, then I won't talk much." ”

Lin Yu'an understood Mother Xu's intentions, and took Mother Xu's hand with a smile: "I know that Mother Xu is thinking about me, but have you thought about it, the prince is the heir of the Emperor Taishang, and he is a cut higher than the county lord of Anning. ”

Mother Xu was relieved when she heard this, thinking that this is why the two families don't move.
