Chapter 161: My uncle's family returns to Beijing
If there is someone in your heart, you will always remember it.
Gu Qingyi was concerned about the pattern of the lower abdomen, King Qin ordered Zhou Yan to dispense medicine as soon as possible, and finally got the finished product a few days later, he couldn't wait to return to Yujing Garden with the ointment, and found Gu Qingyi who was reading the letter in the study of the east suite.
"Whose letter?" He asked.
Gu Qingyi did not shy away from handing him the letter, "It's a letter from my uncle." He will return to Beijing this year to report on his work, and he will bring his grandfather and them back with him. ”
King Qin read the letter at a glance and ten lines, sat down next to Gu Qingyi, and talked to her, "Uncle is vacant?" ”
"Not yet." Gu Qingyi shook his head, "My grandfather is already old in the Spring and Autumn Period, and my uncle doesn't want to continue to go out, he just wants to find a job in Beijing and serve my grandfather in his old age." ”
This is also the reason why the eldest uncle did not find a job vacancy and moved the family back to the capital, and the grandfather could no longer help running around.
King Qin looked at Gu Qingyi's expression, and saw that her love and concern for the Li family were beyond words, and he had a plan in his heart, "There are a few vacancies under this king's name, and when the time comes, let your uncle fill it, and when he returns to Beijing, he can have a good New Year, and he doesn't have to run around." ”
Gu Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head, "How can this be done, my uncle is my foreign family, and you use your power to vacate him, for fear of being impeached by the imperial history." ”
"It's okay, it's just a trifle." Qin Wangfu has been too sharp recently, and the dew point is fine, but seeing Gu Qingyi's disapproval, he couldn't help but rub her head and said with relief, "Don't worry, your uncle is assessed as a class A every year, even if he is vacant, he can't make a mistake." ”
Seeing that she was finally relieved, King Qin took out the ointment prepared by Zhou Yan from his purse and handed it over, saying, "This ointment is used to eliminate the red lines on your lower abdomen, the medicine is mild, and it is not harmful to the baby, just wipe it once a day after bathing." ”
Gu Qingyi didn't expect to mix the ointment so quickly, and immediately accepted it happily, she asked Handong and Qiu Yan to help her wipe it after bathing every day, and two months later, the terrifying purple-red pattern on the lower abdomen really disappeared, if it weren't for the bulge of the lower abdomen, the smooth white and tender skin didn't look like a pregnant woman's belly at all.
Dr. Zhou's medical skills are really clever.
solved the problem of the pattern, Gu Qingyi was tormented by the new trouble. She is now eight months pregnant, her belly is getting bigger and bigger, she can't see her toes when she stands, her legs are swollen like blowing, and she is a finger socket when she touches it, and she often wakes up with cramps at night, and can only make up for sleep during the day.
She can make up for sleep, but King Qin can't. King Qin shared the same bed with her, and woke up at night under her influence, the lack of sleep for days had made his eyes blue and black, and he looked a lot haggard, Gu Qingyi was so distressed that he couldn't help but say, "Lord Wang, in the future, I will sleep in the warm pavilion by myself, and you can sleep on the shelf bed outside." ”
It is not possible to successfully separate beds in the early stages of pregnancy, let alone now.
King Qin really refused, and skillfully massaged the acupuncture points for her, "You are heavy now, and it is easy to fall down when you get up at night, this king is not at ease." ”
Even if he asked the slaves and maids to be on duty at night, he didn't worry about them, they were all a group of maids, where could he be reliable.
This is also Gu Qingyi's most difficult to speak, in the past month, she often thinks about going to the toilet, it's okay during the day, King Qin is not serving slaves and maids, as long as he returns to the house, he will definitely not fake people, every time he will hold her to Gong Bucket, Gu Qingyi from the beginning of the embarrassment to the last broken jar, I only feel that she is in front of King Qin, there is no image at all.
When Gu Qingyi was a girl in the boudoir, she also heard a woman talk about the experience of pregnancy and childbirth, and the woman was alone in the tenth month of pregnancy. I don't know how many high-ranking Lang Jun have a happy relationship with his concubine when he is pregnant in the main room, and his concubines and daughters have not yet been born, so there are many more concubines and concubines.
Although she is pregnant, the bitterness is only known to herself, Gu Qingyi has also thought about the future, and she is inevitably panicked, but King Qin's approach has dispelled all her uneasiness and fear, and she can calmly face the changes and hardships in her body.
Because she knows that the hardships of pregnancy are borne by King Qin and her. The King of Qin, who is in a high position, can do things that ordinary Langjun can't do for her, what else does she have to demand.
Gu Qingyi's heart was overflowing with tenderness, looking at the blue and black under King Qin's eyes, he didn't mention the topic of bed sharing again, but said, "I'm sleepy, the prince can sleep with me for a while." ”
King Qin saw through her thoughts, but did not pierce it, but smiled and responded well, picked her up without much effort, returned to the warm pavilion of the suite, and slept with each other.
The first snow after the winter fell, and the cold winter wax moon came quietly, Gu Qingyi fiddled with the plum that the autumn geese folded back, and saw Handong walking in, "Princess, the old lady and the eldest master have returned to Beijing." ”
Gu Qingyi suddenly said urgently, "Why did you only return to Beijing at this time?" How can my grandfather's body stand the heavy snow and cold? Qiu Yan, you go to the treasury to get some medicinal herbs, and personally send them to the Li Mansion to visit my grandfather for me. ”
Qiu Yan retreated, Han Dong saw that Gu Qingyi was still anxious, for fear that something would happen to her, so he hurriedly comforted, "The princess doesn't have to worry, the old lady will start to return to Beijing in September, the carriage and horses are slow, and the delay is only now to arrive, and the fatigue along the way is inevitable, but there will be no big problem with family servants to serve." ”
Gu Qingyi barely calmed down and sat down with his stomach in his hands, "I've borrowed your auspicious words." ”
Thinking that this is the only foreign home that her cousin remembers, she can't help but sigh a long sigh, if it weren't for the weight of her body, she would be going to visit at this time, her cousin has no chance to visit her relatives, and it is good for her to do her filial piety for her cousin.
"What's going on? Why the sullenness? ”
King Qin came back from outside, and when he heard Han Dong say that the princess was not in good spirits today, he was immediately worried. He took off his cloak and dissipated the cold air in front of the charcoal basin before entering the warm pavilion between the trees. At this time, Gu Qingyi was half-leaning on the kang to read a book, and what she was holding in her hand was actually the "Huainan Miscellaneous Records", she stared at a certain page of annotations in a daze, and did not hear him speak at all.
King Qin took a look and found that it was a line of small and beautiful hairpins, not the princess's handwriting, thinking of the news of the Li family's return to Beijing, he immediately understood that the princess was remembering the old man.
He had no right to deal with this, so he could only take the book from her hand as if nothing had happened, and when she looked up, he said, "I heard that my grandfather and they have returned to Beijing, and when they are settled in a few days, let them come to the house to see you." ”
Gu Qingyi is now nine months pregnant, and she may not know when she will give birth, but she doesn't dare to risk leaving the house.
"Forget about my grandfather, he is an old man, and it is rude that I can't visit him, so there is no reason for him to come to see me." Gu Qingyi came back to her senses and smiled slightly, "I haven't seen my uncle and them for a long time, and I miss them very much in my heart, so I can only bother them to come and see me." ”
King Qin rubbed her head, "The princess doesn't have to worry about it, this king will arrange it." ”
A few days later, Gu Qingyi met the Li family as she wished. When she saw the gray-haired and clear-looking old man in the sixtieth year, she immediately stood up and exclaimed, "Grandfather, why are you here too?" ”
A few days ago, Qiu Yan came back from a visit in the Li Mansion and learned that his grandfather was in good health, but Gu Qingyi always felt that he had worked hard all the way and needed bed rest, but his old man didn't listen to her persuasion and actually came.
King Qin supported her in time and said in a low voice, "Be careful." ”
Li Sinian looked at his granddaughter, who he hadn't seen for many years, and then looked at King Qin next to him, and a look of relief flashed in his eyes, "Princess, you are heavy, sit down." The old minister never sent the princess to marry you, and he has always regretted it in his heart, and he should have come to visit him when he returned to Beijing this time. ”
Gu Qingyi was helped by King Qin to sit down, listening to him talk about the old minister and the princess, his expression was a little sad, "Grandfather, we are all a family, we don't have to see each other like this." ”
Li Sinian hesitated, and King Qin spoke, "Grandfather, you listen to the princess." ”
Hearing King Qin's grandfather, Li Sinian and the others were shocked, and he hurriedly said, "The old minister doesn't dare to be the grandfather of the prince, you call the old minister by his name." ”
King Qin knew that the princess felt guilty about her cousin, and she was even more compensatory for her grandfather's family, so he naturally loved the house and Wu, and sincerely accepted the Li family, and he didn't feel how to call it.
Therefore, he looked calm, "Grandfather can't push it anymore, otherwise the princess will be uncomfortable." ”
Li Sinian looked at his granddaughter with a big belly, and finally agreed, he asked worriedly, "Isn't Yi'er just pregnant for seven months?" It looks like labor is about to begin. ”
Gu Qingyi's pregnancy time has been reduced by two months.
Gu Qingyi was reluctant to deceive her elders, but the facts were not suitable to be revealed, so she didn't know how to answer for a while, but fortunately, her eldest aunt Zhao relieved her, "Daddy doesn't know, women's fetal images are different, and it is also possible for Yi'er to have a bigger belly, which means that our little nephew looks good in his mother's womb, and he will definitely be a big fat boy in the coming year." ”
The second aunt, Su Shi, also responded and asked Gu Qingyi about her pregnancy, before you came and went, the atmosphere gradually relaxed.
The second uncle Li Shirong had seen it earlier, but the eldest uncle Li Shihua had seen it for the first time, he looked upright and upright, just like his grandfather, which made people feel at a glance that he was a Qing official who loved the people like a son.
The eldest uncle has three sons and one daughter under his knees, and the second uncle has one son and one daughter, and they have all been brought here at this time, Gu Qingyi finally recognized the person according to the letters exchanged between him. These cousins were of a gentle temperament, and although they had a sense of distance at first sight, the strangeness quickly melted away, and they spoke to her affectionately, and the ease between their words was no different from that in letters.
Such a harmonious family atmosphere is something Gu Qingyi has never experienced, and her love for the Li family has reached a higher level, and she accepts their existence from the bottom of her heart.
She felt glad for her cousin, even if she no longer exists, there is still a group of people who care about her and love her without any guilt, this is the purest family affection.
