Chapter 7: Mother-in-law
The wine entered his throat, soft and long, and Qiu Yuan asked softly, "Is it okay?" β
Yao Jingning closed her eyes: "Hmm." β
The red candle was shaking, the brocade tent was also shaking, and both of them were very jerky and nervous, and they were not too pleasant.
However, Yao Jingning believes that Qiu Yuan's gentleness and thoughtfulness and empathy are enough to make people like, he is a good husband, and if he is given a little more time and opportunity, he will do better.
In fact, by the third day of living in Zhuangzi, Qiu Yuan was already very proficient.
He took her to find the remaining tea buds on the tea tree, made tea together, distributed tea to her, ordered tea, played the piano for her, painted a small portrait for her, and wrote poems and inscriptions with her.
The most unexpected thing is his ability to tell jokes, talking nonsense in a serious way, first making people think it is true, and can't help but reminisce, and then they find it very funny, and they can't stop laughing.
Yao Jingning was amazed by his cuteness and charm, and she was like a moth, unreservedly pounced on the candle flame.
She loved him and cherished this fate.
She could also feel his sincerity, thoughtfulness and pity.
He was very busy, but he always remembered bringing her a bag of sweet and hot fried chestnuts in the snowy winter, and he also remembered bringing her the first early-blooming apricot blossoms in early spring.
Winter went to spring, she was pregnant in the early summer, she pressed the purse sent by Lu Huanting under the box, didn't think about it or care, was busy happily every day, and lived a good life.
Qiu Yuan is getting busier and busier, his talent in business has been released, even if the head of the household is still facing him, he has to retreat one or two, and the big merchants in the country and the merchants of other countries want to do business, and they also remember to look for him.
Fame and power are monstrous.
There are many people who stuff women around him in different ways, and he never takes them home, but occasionally he inevitably carries the fragrance of fat powder on his body.
He didn't deliberately hide it from her, his eyes were clear and honest: "Entertainment is inevitable, and I know what I'm doing." β
Indeed, she had never heard any rumors about him, and the man was self-contained and restrained, and he was as calm as he was.
Among her peers, there is no happier life than her, after the noisy dowry grandmother was driven away, she refused to send anyone from the family again, whether it was her mother crying and begging, or her sister-in-law was serious, she did not accept it.
She loves the feeling of being at ease.
The child was born, it was a daughter, it happened to be in the autumn to raise military rations, hurriedly came back, knew that the mother and daughter were safe, hugged the child, kissed her, and then disappeared without a trace, and did not return home for several days and nights.
Mrs. Yao had to stuff the old grandmother next to her to her, saying that she was good at conditioning her body, and she was also very experienced in taking care of children, so she could recuperate in the shortest possible time and have another son.
She refused without hesitation, Mrs. Yao couldn't get up and down her face, and said with a cold face: "I am for your good, but you treat me as an enemy, and you will regret it in the future." β
She wasn't impressed.
On the day of washing, the autumn jacket still did not appear, and although the guests were full, they also talked about it.
She overheard an aunt in the clan mockingly mention her: "Look at her proudly, I think it's amazing to have a daughter, what does the Qiu family lack most now?" What is missing is a man! You see, if she can't have another son, this house will soon be filled with all kinds of beauties, and even the queen mother can't bear it. β
The other person echoed with a smile: "I don't know that Lord Qiu dislikes her for giving birth to a daughter, right?" β
"I said don't chew your tongue." It was the cousin's voice, indignant: "Who said that Lord Qiu dislikes being a daughter?" He loves it. The queen also liked it, rewarded a lot of things, and said that she would name the child herself. β
"Cut...... Needless to say, the queen mother is used to being a person. The aunt smiled: "If Qiu Yuan really likes it, why is she not there when she gave birth, and the child is not there?" Don't tell me he's busy! How can I have time to take care of the two evil obstacles of the Lu family when I am really busy! β
Yao Jingning was extremely depressed, walked out, and looked at the few people who chewed their tongues fixedly: "Get out!" β
The cousin hurriedly came to stop, and the aunt laughed: "What's the matter?" How can you drive us away? β
Yao Jingning said coldly: "Ran to my house to chew your tongue, and you still want me to be a guest?" β
The aunt sneered: "We are elders, and we are tempted to support you for the faΓ§ade, but you want to drive us away?" I'm not afraid of being pierced in the back! Unkind and unfilial things! β
Angrily shook the handkerchief, turned around and left, all the way out, countless people asked the reason, and the aunt shouted: "Why? People have climbed the branches to be phoenixes, and they look down on poor relatives like us! β
Yao Jingning stood with her waist straight, her face was unyielding, she didn't care, and smiled to comfort the guests: "It's nothing, it's a little thing, everyone continues to eat and drink......
When he turned around, tears fell.
She never knew that it was so difficult to be a wife and mother.
It seems that everyone is at ease, but she is the only one, her husband does not return home, her mother is also offended by her, and her relatives speak ill of her and gloat......
The newborn is not well-behaved, crying non-stop, the nurse can't coax it well, she can't find the reason, she is distressed and scared, and feels that the sky is falling.
She insisted on asking people to ask for a doctor, find an experienced old woman, and then arrange for the guests to leave home, and deal with it in an orderly manner, so tired and dizzy.
The child finally stopped crying, and when she was full of milk and fell asleep, she threw the person out and hid alone in the house and broke down and cried.
I cried tired and fell asleep, and then opened my eyes and guarded the autumn jacket in front of the bed.
It was already dark, and he lay down in front of the bed and fell asleep like this, so thin that he was not human-shaped.
She didn't want to pay attention to him, but when she saw this, she felt distressed, she couldn't bear to wake him up, so she only put a cloak on him, stepped lightly on the bed, and asked people to prepare food for him.
Turning around again, Qiu Yuan had already woken up, he sat quietly in front of the bed, and stretched out his hand to her: "Come here." β
Her nasal cavity was sore, and she turned her back to him, and her nasal voice was plugged: "What are you doing?" β
He didn't answer, got up and hugged her from behind, and said softly, "Tired." β
She wiped her tears and said angrily: "Sleep when you're tired, what are you doing guarding me?" β
"Because I want to accompany you." He hugged her and dragged her back to the bed: "It's not a confinement, why do you always stand in the wind?" β
Yao Jingning said angrily: "Because if you are sick, someone will take care of you." β
A pair of warm hands held her face strongly, Qiu Yuan's eyes were clear and deep, he looked at her for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, you have been wronged, I promise that this kind of thing will not happen again." β
"What's the matter?" Yao Jingning didn't know if he was referring to the aunt in her clan making trouble, or if he was going to quietly take care of Lu Huanting's younger brother.
Qiu Yuan smiled slightly: "Let you be wronged." β
happened to be sent food by his subordinates, and he pulled her to eat together: "Anger can't fill your stomach." β
