Chapter 361 Civil, military and financial affairs

"This is something that many women can't ask for. The old lady gave birth to two daughters when she saw me. I'm not afraid of anything else. I just hope that the two sisters can meet a kind family and live a smooth life."

Hearing this, Mrs. Gu patted the back of Mrs. Du's hand and said.

"Don't worry, mother-in-law, Jingyi has become my daughter-in-law. My old lady dare not say anything else, but I will never let her feel wronged. She is pregnant now and needs to raise a baby. When she gives birth to a child, she will give her confinement child." Once it's done and your body is well taken care of, the burden of the family will still have to be placed on her and Shaoyu in the future."

Mrs. Du naturally knew that Mrs. Gu was not telling lies to deceive her, so she also said with emotion.

 “We are rest assured, rest assured.”

 It was lively outside, but it was quiet inside Qiwu Courtyard.

After Du Jingyi got better, Dr. Na Xia went back. When she left, she took away Du Jingyi's "Daxing Regional Chronicle", saying that she wanted to get more familiar with it. If there was a chance in the future, she would also travel around this mountain and river. sea.

Hearing this, Du Jingyi thought of something, but it was still early, so he didn't say much. After Dr. Xia left, he asked Li Zhu to pick someone who didn't talk much and had good skills. She was cultivating her first, so that if Dr. Xia really wanted to travel in the future, she would have someone to protect her, and she could repay Dr. Xia's successive life-saving favors.

Seeing this, Li Zhu had a candidate in mind, so he didn't let Du Jingyi worry about it anymore.

The time for playing went by very quickly. After dinner was finished in the evening and the children were sent away one by one, the whole house became a lot quieter.

At this point, Du Jingyi left the gate of Qiwu Courtyard and reunited with everyone for dinner.

The last time Mrs. Xing and Xing Zhao saw her was on the wedding day of Gu Xiaochun and Su Erlang. She was very old at that time. Now that they see her again, they are extremely emotional.

"After all, we have three children, but they are unusually big. I pity you for having such a hard pregnancy."

Mrs. Xing is a woman and has given birth to two children, so she naturally knows that the pain has tripled now. Besides, even if she stands up and takes two steps, she will feel uncomfortable with her belly. Bar.

The distress she showed made Du Jingyi see it in his eyes. She and Mrs. Xing were already on good terms, so he comforted her.

"Don't be sad, aunt. I'll give birth in another two months. Now that the children are all well, that's the most important thing."

“That’s right, you should be happy about the new import.”

After saying that, he said to Mrs. Gu and the others.

“Auntie, have you found the wet nurse, midwife, etc.? Is there anything I can do to help?”

"Don't worry, we have already prepared these. At the beginning of May, we will send everyone into the yard to wait, just in case."

By May, Du Jingyi was seven months pregnant. Although it was not certain that she would give birth, it would be safer to prepare early.

Therefore, Mrs. Gu had already made arrangements. The wet nurse prepared six and the midwife found four. They were all carefully selected, so naturally there would be no mistakes.

After hearing her arrangement, Mrs.

Brother Tai on the side was tired from playing today, so after eating, he looked a little drowsy, but the ceremony of catching the week had not been done yet, so everyone hurried to deal with this matter quickly. Get it up.

The ground was covered with brocaded red silk, and there were many things inside. The fourth aunt put Tai Geer in front of the red silk and said with a smile. "Hurry up, Brother Tai, go and get something. You can get whatever you like, you know?"

Tai Geer muttered, obviously not interested in these things. Instead, he stumbled in the direction of Du Jingyi, holding the things, and lay on Du Jingyi's lap, looking like he was sleepy.

Seeing this, Du Jingyi patted his back softly and said.

“We, Brother Tai, are tired, aren’t we? After you get your things, let’s go back and rest, okay?”

Brother Tai probably understood what he heard, so he turned around and looked at the things on the ground. I don't know if he did it on purpose or just wanted to send everyone away. He only picked the two closest to him and sat on the ground and yawned. .

"He holds a bow and arrow in his left hand and an abacus in his right hand. This boy is really good at it. He has imitated all the skills of cousin Shaoyu and his sister-in-law!"

Xing Zhao said jokingly, and everyone was obviously very satisfied with the result.

Seeing that Brother Tai was really sleepy, the wet nurse held him in her arms and took him away. Who knew that when she picked him up and stood up, another writing brush fell from his arms. The fourth aunt was so happy that she immediately said.

“Brother Tai is so adorable! In the future, he will definitely be able to be good at literature, martial arts, and make money. Thinking about it, I think he’s really capable!”

Her words of compliment made several aunts who already loved Tai Geer start chattering, and they poured out basket after basket of auspicious words.

 The night is hanging high, and the day has passed again.

Gu Shaoyu, who has now rushed to Cezhou, also drank a few glasses of wine in front of the moon, seeming to wish his son a happy birthday.

 Thinking about how his child has grown from the size of a palm to now, he, as a father, is filled with emotions.

It's just that I have military duties and can't stay with them, so I still feel a little guilty.

 Fortunately, he has already found the first-year gift and will bring it back to Brother Tai to see it. He will definitely like it!

While thinking about it, he saw Shao Shengming, the prefect who had been appointed to Cezhou, come in from outside with a respectful attitude on his face. When he saw Gu Shaoyu, he saluted.

 “The lower official has met the general.”

 “When will Daijin’s envoy arrive?”

 “Return to the general, the news just sent said that he will arrive early the next day.”

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu felt a little unhappy in his eyes. He had traveled thousands of miles to get here, but the distance to Dajin was obviously only a few hundred miles away, so he took his time.

Even if the two parties have signed the "Ceyan Alliance", it means that Daxing is the leader and Dajin is the subsidiary. They have to wait for a tribute to be sent. It seems that Dajin is not very willing.

Although Gu Shaoyu left Cezhou for more than a year, the forces he arranged here are still operating as usual, especially Liu Xun came here half a year in advance, so he should know the news about Daikin You already know everything you shouldn't know.

So, his eyes became sharp, and then he said to Shao Shengming.
