Chapter 361: Civil and Military Wealth
"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 everything is done and the body is well taken care of, the burden of the family will still fall on her and Shao Yu in the future."
Mrs. Du naturally knew that Mrs. Gu was not telling lies to deceive her, so she also said with emotion.
"We can rest assured, don't worry."
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. If Dr. Xia really wanted to travel in the future, she would have someone to protect her. She could repay Dr. Xia's continuous life-saving kindness.
Seeing this, Li Zhu had a candidate in mind, so he didn't let Du Jingyi worry about it anymore.
The time for playing passed 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 just left the door 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 saw her again, they were extremely emotional.
"After all, they are three children, but they are unusually big. I pity you for having such a difficult 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 she 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 import of a new child."
After 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 earlier.
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. Xing didn't say anything more. She just smiled and said that she must be called to come to the house when the time comes, so that she can see the excitement of the birth of the third child.
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 floor was covered with brocaded red silk, and there were many things inside. The fourth aunt put Brother Tai in front of the red silk and said with a smile.
"Quick, brother Tai, go get something. You can get whatever you like, you know?"
Brother Tai 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.
"Our brother Tai is 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. Unexpectedly, 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 is really capable!"
Her words of compliment made several aunts who already loved Brother Tai start chattering, and they poured out basket after basket of auspicious words.
The night is hanging high, and the day has passed.
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 being as big as a palm to where he is 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 had already found a gift for the first birthday. When the time comes, he will bring it back to show Taigeer. He will definitely like it!
As he was thinking, he saw Shao Shengming, the governor of Cezhou, coming in from outside. He had a respectful attitude on his face and bowed when he saw Gu Shaoyu.
"Your subordinate greets the general."
"When will the envoy of Dajin arrive?"
"General, the news just sent said that it will arrive the day after tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu's eyes were a little unhappy. He had come all the way here, but Dajin was only hundreds of miles away, but it was dragging its feet.
Even if the two sides had signed the "Ceyan Alliance", it was that they had Daxing as the leader and Dajin as the subordinate. They had to wait a lot to send tribute. It seemed that Dajin was not very willing.
Although Gu Shaoyu had left Cezhou for more than a year, the forces he had arranged here were still operating as usual, especially since Liu Xun had come here half a year earlier, so he knew almost everything he should and shouldn't know about the news about the Great Jin.
So, his eyes showed some sharpness, and then he said to Shao Shengming.
