Dong Shu regrets it very much now, and feels that she shouldn't provoke her father-in-law in the early morning, otherwise she won't be tossed for so long, and the last time she woke up was noon.

Fortunately, Yuan Xi didn't cry for her today, and after being taken by the nurse for a night last night, she stayed by Mrs. Xu's side for a while this morning.

When Dong Shu got up and washed up and went downstairs with Xu Shiqiu, she was too shy to look up at Mrs. Xu.

Old Mrs. Xu had already heard the news from the servants, but this was a matter for her son and daughter-in-law, and she was not an old lady to say much.

Not only is it hard to say much, but she likes to see her son and daughter-in-law close very much.

Although she didn't expect them to have another child as soon as possible, she was relieved that the two had a good relationship.

"Come and eat, you have your favorite food today." Old Lady Xu naturally beckoned to Dong Shu, then glanced at Xu Shiqiu beside her, then looked at Dong Shu again and said, "Let Shiqiu accompany you out in the afternoon, you don't have to go far, just take a look in the town." ”

Hearing Mrs. Xu's words, the heat on Dong Shu's face dropped a lot, "Listen to my mother." After saying this, Dong Shu took two quick steps, and then reached out and hugged Yuan Xi in Mrs. Xu's arms into her arms.

Recently, Yuan Xi has had many opportunities to follow Dong Shu, but I haven't seen him all night last night, and it has been several hours since noon today, so as soon as I heard Dong Shu speak, I laughed directly.

Looking at Yuan Xi, who was obediently leaning on Dong Shu's arms, the more Mrs. Xu looked at it, the happier she became, "The longer Yuan Xi is, the better, and I don't know which stinky boy will be cheaper in the end." ”

Mrs. Xu just said it casually, but when Xu Shiqiu, who heard her words, her face immediately turned dark and said: "After Yuan Xi, I am reluctant to marry her." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu also reached out and touched his daughter's cheek.

And Dong Shu, who heard his words, stared at her eyes in surprise, obviously, she didn't expect Xu Shiqiu to have such an idea.

Old Mrs. Xu first glanced at Xu Shiqiu, and then looked at Dong Shu and said, "Don't listen to him, when your sister was born, your father said the same." In the end, it wasn't that he was married. ”

Mrs. Xu looked open, the most important thing was that she felt that although the eldest son and second son were not intimate, there was Xu Shiqiu, the youngest son and daughter-in-law, with her.

Of course, if there is no youngest son and daughter-in-law, she is not a person who will wronged herself and has to live with her eldest son or second son.

As soon as Dong Shu heard Mrs. Xu's words, she instantly understood what she meant.

"Mother, when my sister got married, you must have been very reluctant." Dong Shu thought that one day in the future, if someone came to marry her own Yuanxi, she would definitely be reluctant.

But she is not like Xu Shiqiu, who feels that Yuan Xi wants to recruit trouble.

She can see it, as long as Yuan Xi is married, she can go to see her at any time.

"It's definitely reluctant to be reluctant, but she's comfortable now, and I feel like she's not marrying the wrong person." Mrs. Xu opened her mouth with emotion, and after saying this, she saw that Xu Shiqiu seemed to want to speak, and shook her head with a smile: "There is no perfect thing, as long as she feels happy." I can see that children will always meet people who will stay with them for the rest of their lives. ”

After Mrs. Xu said this, she naturally thought of her father-in-law, who died early.

Dong Shu also felt that her mother-in-law seemed to be thinking about something, so she didn't continue to talk about it.

She looked up at her father-in-law, and originally wanted to talk to him, but found that he was also black-faced now.

Xu Shiqiu kept silent with a dark face, but in his heart, he thought fiercely that he would definitely watch his own Yuan Xi in the future and not let the stinky boy cheat him away.

But Xu Shiqiu didn't know that when he entered Beijing this time, his family was taken care of by people on Yuanxi.

After eating, Dong Shu followed Xu Shiqiu to the town for a walk according to what Mrs. Xu said.

Although the town is not big, it has a unique flavor.

Dong Shu brought a lot of copper plates with her, and the things in the town were not expensive, and no one knew Xu Shiqiu here, so the two of them went shopping directly for more than an hour.

In this process, Xu Shiqiu did not let anyone he met have an accident.

Because of this incident, Xu Shiqiu's mood was much better.

After all, it won't affect others here, as long as he keeps taking the little lady with him in the future, there will be no more things that happened before.

In the afternoon, Xu Shiqiu took Dong Shu shopping, and the servants of the Xu family began to replenish the water and prepare to continue to set off tomorrow.

If all goes well, they will need to be in Beijing in about ten days.

In the evening, after eating, Dong Shu went back to the house directly with Yuan Xi, Xu Shiqiu looked at the little lady's movements and guessed her thoughts.

"Is the lady worried that I will trouble you at night?" As soon as he returned to the room, Xu Shiqiu spoke directly.

Hearing his words, Dong Shu directly glared at him angrily and said, "Xianggong, don't say it so nicely, in this matter, I won't believe your words." "Dong Shu is really afraid of her father-in-law, what happened early this morning almost killed her.

Xu Shiqiu also knew that he was a little too much this morning, but since he had already tasted it this morning, he was not in a hurry to eat another meal tonight.

"Don't be afraid, lady, my husband has already tasted the best this morning, so I'll let you rest tonight." Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu with a serious face, and after saying this, she stared at her with crescent eyes and looked at herself, and continued: "Could it be that the lady still wants to taste it again tonight for her husband?" It's not impossible, after all, the husband's physical strength is still good. ”

Although it was not the first time that Dong Shu had heard Xu Shiqiu say such a thing, after all, she hadn't heard it for a long time before, and now that she listened to it again, she was still made by Xu Shiqiu's cheekiness and didn't know how to answer.

Because he was afraid that Xu Shiqiu would really do it to himself, Dong Shu kept holding Yuan Xi next.

When Yuan Xi fell asleep, she quickly freshened up, then stripped and lay on the bed, hugged Yuan Xi, and didn't give Xu Shiqiu a look at all.

Xu Shiqiu understood that his little lady was afraid of himself, so he didn't speak, and waited until he was also lying on the bed, and then he gently dropped a kiss on Dong Shu's lips.

Feeling the little lady's slightly trembling body, Xu Shiqiu stretched out his hand to rub her brows, and said in a low voice: "Sleep, I won't mess around tonight." ”

Perhaps with Xu Shiqiu's assurance, Dong Shu fell asleep quickly, not knowing that Xu Shiqiu stared at her for a long time after she fell asleep.

By the time I woke up again, it was already early the next morning.

Because they were going to continue on the road today, they all got up early, thinking that they would have time to hurry, so that when the night came, they could find a suitable place to spend the night.

It's just that Xu Shiqiu and they were not lucky, and in the early morning of the second day when they set off again, a rain directly disrupted their original plan.

"Look, the rain doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon." Dong Shu is not very experienced, but she can still see that today's rain cannot be stopped in an hour or two.

"Now the rain is actually not heavy, and it is not impossible for us to go on the road, but in case the rain becomes heavier later, and there is no suitable place to spend the night on the road, I am afraid that it will rain."

Xu Shiqiu held Dong Shu in one hand and Yuan Xi in the other hand and stood under the eaves of a farmhouse.

They arrived here yesterday evening, and happened to meet a small village.

After Xu Jie came forward to negotiate, they scattered to live in the village, and now Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu, as well as Ling Xiang and the Li family, all live here.

Dong Shu also understood what Xu Shiqiu meant, there were old and young people in their group, and they really couldn't take risks.

She looked up at Xu Shiqiu, and was just about to finish speaking, when Xu Jie walked into the eyes of the two of them with a food box in the rain.

"Why is the fourth brother here?" Xu Shiqiu opened his mouth to ask questions first, and then took the opportunity to hand Yuan Xi in his arms to Dong Shu's arms.

"Dr. Du prepared the medicine against wind and cold, and the servant woman in the kitchen cooked it, I happened to have something to find you, so I sent it over by the way." As he spoke, Xu Jie approached Xu Shiqiu, handed him the food box in his hand, and then put away the umbrella in his other hand.

After Xu Shiqiu took the food box sent by Xu Jie, he walked towards the house, put the food box on the table, and opened it again and brought out two bowls of soup and medicine.

"What is the matter that the fourth brother came to me?" As Xu Shiqiu spoke, he directly picked up a bowl and drank it all, and then took another bowl to Dong Shu's mouth, obviously to feed her.

Dong Shu was a little embarrassed in front of Xu Jie, but in the end, she still stretched out her head and drank a bowl of soup medicine directly with the bowl sent by Xu Shiqiu.

After drinking the decoction, Dong Shu looked at Xu Jie and said, "I still have to feed Yuan Xi, is this decoction okay?" ”

"It's okay, my aunt specially asked Dr. Du, and Dr. Du said it was okay." After Xu Jie said this, he sat down directly on the chair next to him, and then looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, "I saw that the weather was bad this morning, so I went to the front to explore the way." There are a few villages ahead, but a small town two days away is a little uneasy. ”

Xu Jie was not as restrained as his three elder brothers when he got along with Xu Shiqiu, but now they are even more casual when their family and the Xu family are connected.

Xu Shiqiu didn't expect Xu Jie to hear such news.

In fact, Xu Jie said to explore the way, but he only believed half of it. The other half must be because of the bad weather, and he knows that everyone will not be in a hurry to get on the road and go out to play.

However, Xu Shiqiu did not reveal his thoughts, and now he is thinking about what Xu Jie just said.

"Maybe find out what the hell is going on?" Xu Shiqiu is not too familiar with the road back to Beijing, and the reason why they chose this road is also because they used to take this road when the capital sent things to Xiahe Village.

"The person who went back to Xiahe Village to deliver the letter didn't talk about that town before, and even if it happened, it must have happened recently." Xu Shiqiu said seriously, and Xu Jie, who heard his words, also nodded in agreement with his words.

"So I'm here to ask if I can take someone to explore the road and see what's going on in front of me?" Xu Jie's temperament is unstable, and he especially likes these exciting things.

However, he remembered his current identity, so after hearing the news, he did not rush forward, but came back to ask Xu Shiqiu.

After Xu Shiqiu heard Xu Jie's words, he couldn't think of a better way for a while, so he could only agree to Xu Jie to take someone to take a look.

"The fourth brother must pay attention to safety when he goes, and if he encounters danger, he must get out and come back in time, and it is a big deal that we will take a detour back to Beijing." Although they have to walk for four or five more days in such a detour, it is better than someone having an accident.

Xu Jie also understood what Xu Shiqiu meant, and after hearing this, he nodded directly to ensure that he would pay attention.

"It's better to let Yuanhang go with you, you bring a few more people, and have the identity of Yuanhang's Xiucai, at least it's a little useful."

Xu Shiqiu would say this, also because these days he found that the more small the place, the more important he is to read people.

Especially a person with a reputation like Shi Yuan.

Xu Jie did not refuse Xu Shiqiu's proposal, after all, his brain is indeed inferior to Mr. Shi, with Mr. Shi here, if he really encounters something, he can also ask for advice.

"Then you go first, let's wait for the rain to stop and continue to follow slowly, and wait until the village in front of us finds a place to stay." Since there is a village in front of them, they don't have to wait here, they can go to the nearest village to settle down.

After Xu Jie heard Xu Shiqiu's words, he didn't speak immediately, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I will bring a few more people, and when I find a suitable place to stay, I will leave two people waiting for you." ”

Xu Jie's arrangement is also very suitable, and Xu Shiqiu has no opinion after hearing his arrangement.

It's just that Xu Shiqiu didn't expect that he had made many arrangements, and a few people who went to explore the road still had an accident.
