Chapter 31 Detailed Arrangements

It was just that they were not comfortable saying these words.

They didn't want their second uncle to think that the Du family wanted to use his return to establish a relationship with the family, which would only make their daughter unhappy.

Then, Du Jingyi turned around and looked at her sister, smiling and said.

"Sister, take good care of your pregnancy. When I go back, I will ask Lu Ju to send some suitable small clothes to show my feelings as your aunt."

"Well, be careful on the way back."

"Okay."

Du Jingxiang didn't know what to say about the rest.

Especially with a powerful brother-in-law, she was still nervous like a drum.

After the couple said goodbye, they left the door of Mingse Courtyard together.

When they left under the moonlight, people couldn't help but sigh.

It was really a match made in heaven for a talented man and a beautiful woman.

After they walked a little further away, Du Jingxiang let out a long sigh.

She couldn't help but pat her chest and said.

"My brother-in-law is too... tall."

She got married early, so she had never seen Shang Ji.

It was also because she was too timid, so when she saw him for the first time, she felt like a moving Mount Tai.

It gave people a great sense of oppression.

"A military general should be like this, otherwise how can my Daxing Dynasty be as solid as a rock?"

He Shilin explained.

His eyes showed admiration for the military generals.

Men always have some passion when they stand in the world.

But he is the only son in the family. Even if he bites the bullet and becomes a soldier, he will probably be tied back by his parents.

Therefore, he gave up the road of military service early.

Now, it is natural to be a little excited to see such a powerful general.

After hearing what he said, the Du family couple also sighed.

Indeed, they can get today's peace because of the soldiers' fighting.

Therefore, they have some respect for Shang Ji, or the soldiers.

If there is a need in the future, they will not be stingy to help.

But at this time, it was too early to talk about these things.

So I heard Mrs. Du say.

"Okay, it's getting late, you two should go back and rest first. Shilin wants to study. I asked someone to clean up the study room in Quliuyuan. It is separated from the main house by a small road, so it is quiet."

"As for Xiangxiang's body, you don't have to worry. I will take care of her and keep her safe."

Mrs. Du said seriously and made good arrangements for the couple.

He Shilin was very grateful and nodded.

"Thank you, mother-in-law, for your troubles and considerations. I am grateful."

"Family, don't talk about these things. There is still a long way to go."

"Yeah."

It was completely unexpected that Du Jingxiang could come back to wait for the birth of the baby.

The two elders of the He family in Pingzhou were also very happy when they knew about it.

Originally, they wanted to take their daughter-in-law back to take care of her, but she was in her advanced period and it was not good for her to travel back and forth.

So they also discussed with Pingzhou that when the child was about to be born, the two elders would rush over.

Fortunately, the relationship between the Du family and the He family was good, so even if they lived under the same roof, there was no problem.

In the main room of Quliuyuan, He Shilin helped his wife Du Jingxiang sit down.

There was some distress in his eyes.

"Xiang Niang, I see your legs and feet are a little swollen. I will ask Dongqin to get some hot water for you to soak and press it, so that you won't be in pain again at night."

Although He Shilin took care of her carefully along the way.

But because of her body, Du Jingxiang still had many pregnancy reactions.

For example, her legs and feet were prone to cramps, and she was easily awakened at night and couldn't sleep well.

He Shilin, as a husband, saw all of this.

Although he couldn't feel bad for his wife, he should pay more attention to these things.

Du Jingxiang looked at her husband and she didn't get tired of looking at him every day.

Before she was pregnant, he treated her very well.

Now that she is pregnant, he is also very caring.

This made Du Jingxiang, who had been loved by his parents since childhood, very happy.

So he said jokingly.

"I must have done a lot of good things in my previous life, so I was reborn into such a family and met you like this."

Although it was not a love story, He Shilin was also very happy to hear it.

He replied with a lot of love in his eyes.

"I am lucky to be favored by the lady."

The couple smiled at each other, and everything was self-evident.

Du Jingxiang and his wife lived their own little lives sweetly, while on the way back, only Du Jingyi was sitting in the spacious carriage.

Unlike when they came, Shang Ji rode in front to lead the way.

It was completely different with him and without him.

Du Jingyi sat in the carriage that seemed a little empty, and couldn't help thinking about what her mother had said before.

Falling into the high gate and large courtyard of the Duke's Mansion was not what she thought.

But since she was here, and her husband seemed to be okay, she would not think about anything else.

After all, she had to consummate the marriage.

Otherwise, she couldn't wait for others to get there first and then regret it.

"The sooner you get pregnant, the sooner you can consolidate your position."

She remembered her mother's words clearly.

So, on the way back, she had almost made up her mind and lost her shyness.

It was not until the carriage slowly stopped that Du Jingyi opened her eyes.

The curtain was lifted, and her husband Shang Ji was still standing outside.

He stretched out his broad palm as usual and said to Du Jingyi.

"Madam, we're home. Let me help you get out of the car."

In one sentence, Du Jingyi's adjusted mentality felt a little abandoned.

After a moment of confusion, he said, "Okay."

She reached out and touched his palm, then got out of the carriage.

The night is approaching, and everything is quiet.

It was really too late for her to get back to the door today.

If those people in Beiyuan knew about it, there would be a lot of gossip.

Unlike the Du family, the door to the Duke's mansion was still open, so the two of them entered without any obstruction.

However, when he walked to the second door, the agile Luo Yuan still noticed some figures floating in the darkness.

He immediately went over to pick up the person and threw him out from behind the door.

"Ouch!" The fall made the person feel dizzy.

He is a capable steward around the Fifth Old Master of Yingjuan Courtyard, and he is somewhat related to the Fifth Old Mrs.'s natal family.

Therefore, he is considered a talkative person in the back house and is called "Qi Er".

What he is born with is what he calls a sinister eyebrow.

Du Jingyi had met him twice before, so he had a little impression of him.

Thinking of the time when he returned home, he knew the purpose of Qi Er's coming here.

So Du Jingyi, who didn't want to make the matter bigger, said as if to relieve the situation.

"Why did Manager Qi come to the Second Gate? But it was dark and he took the wrong route. You need to be careful now."

Seeing this, Qi Er immediately smiled and replied.

"Yes, yes, thank you Madam for your advice. I will leave now."

Sisters, tomorrow I will send you the long-awaited consummation story! Hahaha, I worked very hard this time. Remember to read it early~ Otherwise, I might have to revise the draft again in a few days. You know... Hahahahaha...
