Chapter 324: Family Dinner

The aunt smiled and said.

"There is no need to deliberately publicize this matter. If you can see it, you can tell me. If you can't see it, it doesn't matter. If everyone knows that you are pregnant, they will understand why you haven't shown up for so long. It will be more convenient for you to manage the entire Gu family in the future."

Now the affairs in the house are all managed by the aunt. Speaking like this, it is obvious that she is ready to hand over the matter to Zhongde.

But Du Jingyi is not only a newcomer, but also pregnant. She doesn't want to do so many tedious things. If she tires the child, wouldn't it be more than worth it?

So she said to the aunt.

"Please have pity on me, aunt. I can still take care of the child with my current body. If I manage the Gu family, I am afraid I don't have enough energy. I hope you can hold on for a few more days and give it to me when the time is right in the future. Is it okay?"

Her words obviously made the aunt a little stunned.

The matter of the deaf in the palm is what all the mistresses care about the most. The reason why Madam Gu passed it to her is because she is old, but now Shao Yu and her husband are back, if she still holds on to it, it will be a joke.

Therefore, she made this special trip.

On the day of the family banquet, she will also hand over the family to her.

Originally, the accounts of the Gu family were simple. For so many years, each room has its own rules, so it is not complicated to manage.

The eldest aunt knew that she was the daughter of a merchant family, so she was naturally good at managing accounts, but now she was rejected like this, and she really didn't know how to respond for a while.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Du Jingyi cast a look for help to her aunt, Madam Xing, and then saw Madam Xing speak.

"Look, I told you a long time ago that Shao Yu's wife wouldn't care about these things, but you just wouldn't listen. During the days when I lived in the general's mansion, she was able to let her sister-in-law and aunt do the chores, and never took it on herself. She stayed in Xitang Courtyard every day to take care of the baby. But it's okay, look at what a good child our Tai Ge'er has."

"If you hope that the one in her belly will be as cute as Tai Ge'er, why don't you work hard for a few more years, let them have a good baby, and then you step down?"

These few words made everyone laugh. After knowing that Du Jingyi was not retreating to advance, the aunt was also happy to help, and said with a smile.

"Okay, you two can just have as many children as possible, and we will take care of them. Look, now there is only Tai Ge'er, who is raised in Qiudeyuan by his mother-in-law like an eyeball. If we want to see him, we have to queue up."

"Hahaha, don't worry, wait until your sister Chun'er's marriage is settled, it will be soon, it's about the New Year. I'm afraid that you will have too many grandchildren by then, and you won't be able to hold them all!"

Hearing this, the aunt was happy and sad.

Gu Xiaochun is now her legitimate daughter, and she is also very filial on weekdays. There is nothing wrong with her rules, etiquette, attitude, words and deeds.

It's just that they are so old to become mother and daughter, so there is still some distance.

This kind of emotion needs time to cultivate. Maybe in three or five years, they can really be as close as a family, but now, she feels that Tai Ge'er and the child in Du Jingyi's belly are the closest.

The couple talked about the family dinner for a while, and only after Gu Shaoyu came back did the eldest aunt and his aunt Lady Xing say with a little smile.

"Let's not delay you two young couples talking in private. Let's go to Qiudeyuan first. When Tai Ge'er wakes up later, it will not be my turn to hold him."

The eldest aunt said jokingly, which made Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi smile.

After they left, Du Jingyi said helplessly.

"What the general said before really came true. Look at how popular Tai Ge'er is now. As a mother, I envy his good luck."

Old Madam Gu, the four aunts and aunts of the Gu family, and three aunts, plus dozens of maids and servants, are so favored that even the princes in the palace are almost the same.

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu came forward, first looked up at Du Jingyi, and made sure that she was fine, and then said.

"He is young now, so it's nothing. When he is three or four years old, send him to the military camp to experience. No one will be able to pamper him then."

His words made Du Jingyi feel a little distressed. The little child had to go to the military camp to suffer, but when she thought of her husband who had also struggled in this way, and that he would have to support the Gu family in the future, she could only let go even if she felt distressed.

"General, it's up to you. I hope that the baby in my belly is a daughter, so that she can spend some relaxing days with me at home."

Du Jingyi's words were actually what Gu Shaoyu was thinking.

But his intuition told him that it was probably another son, and a son that was not easy to deal with, because he had always dreamed of a giant python chasing him these two days, which was ferocious and difficult to deal with.

But he didn't tell Du Jingyi about such gods and ghosts. If he scared her while she was pregnant, wouldn't it be troublesome?

The couple sat for a while and chatted for a while. Du Jingyi fell asleep again. She slept much more soundly than before.

Doctor Tan also agreed with this and kept telling her to get more sleep.

Although she didn't use the medicine to protect the pregnancy, Dan Ruo still cooked food according to the recipe given by Doctor Tan every day. Therefore, Du Jingyi was quite happy to eat.

Later, when she woke up, she saw her husband taking a nap beside her, and she felt quite at ease.

Holding hands and lying lazily together, the days were really comfortable.

But the comfort didn't last long, and Tai Ge'er's laughter came from outside the door, giggling, like a happy little bird, always laughing from morning to night.

Gu Shaoyu woke up when he heard the sound, then got up to tidy up Du Jingyi's clothes, and after tidying up himself, he shouted to the outside.

"Send Tai Ge'er in."

"Yes, General."

Outside the door, in addition to Fu Nu, Yingtao and several maids and old women were looking after Tai Ge'er. They were all newly added by the aunts. When Fu Nu saw so many people, she was a little flustered.

Could it be that they felt that she was not serving well and wanted to change people?

At first, she was a little anxious and flustered, but later she realized that they were all assigned to serve Tai Ge'er, and even her work was shared a lot. For a while, she felt that taking care of Tai Ge'er became an easy task.

Because no matter what she did, there was someone to help, so Fu was also very happy.
