Chapter 366 Golden Lotus

Back to the general's mansion, it was already "empty".

Sister-in-law Liu, eighth sister Xue Niang, and Guo's son Silang had all gone to Jinling City. They had probably lived there for half a month. Gu Shaoyu looked at the familiar Xitang Courtyard and missed Du Jingyi very much.

He always wondered if she was about to give birth, and only hoped that the child would come out later, otherwise he would not be able to catch up.

As he thought about it, the fatigue of many days gradually came up, so he fell asleep without eating.

And in Jinling City, the news he had sent out a few days ago was received at this moment.

Under the bright window, Du Jingyi took the letter and read it carefully. It said that they were about to arrive in Sui'an City, everything was fine, and Guo Xiang had promised to let him go back to Jinling City after the tribute was over, so she was happy.

He put the letter in his chest and said with emotion.

"You three should wait a little longer. Maybe you can catch up with your father."

There was a longing for Gu Shaoyu in her eyes, as well as a sense of happiness for the child who was about to be born.

As soon as she finished speaking, Dr. Xia and Yingtao came in, smiling at her growing belly.

"It's eight and a half months now. If it can last another half a month, there's no need to worry about the children. They will grow up well."

"I'm sorry to bother you, Dr. Xia."

"It's nothing. It's what medical students should do."

Dr. Xia's words were not only obeyed by Du Jingyi, but also by the people of the entire Qiwu Courtyard. Therefore, they had no other ideas now. They would just hold on for one more day.

Du Jingyi seldom walked because her belly was too big. She would just walk around the yard with the help of Yingtao and Shuxiu after dinner to help digest the food.

Now with the pregnancy pillow made according to Dr. Xia's instructions, Du Jingyi could sleep much more comfortably at night.

Therefore, he had the energy to chat with everyone during the day.

Speaking of which, the Gu family has had good news recently.

First, Gu Xiaochun has been pregnant for a month, and the pregnancy is going well. She can eat and sleep well without any vomiting, so Su Erlang and the eldest aunt are so happy that they think the flower is cute.

Second, Gu Xiaoyun's marriage has also been settled. The man is a distant nephew from the second aunt's family. He has a gentle and considerate temperament. He was originally engaged, but unfortunately the woman died of illness before the marriage, so it has been delayed.

He has some family medical skills and usually consults in his own clinic. He has three older brothers, so they are happy even if he comes to the Gu family.

His name is Huo Zhengzhi, and for the convenience of everyone, he is called Huo Silang.

For this reason, the fourth aunt even joked, "There are so many sons-in-law in our family. Xue Niang married Guo Silang, and Xiaoyun married Huo Silang."

Two days ago, the marriage of Gu Xiaoyun and Huo Silang was completed. The Gu family is now a prosperous family. There are two pregnant women, a newly married couple, and only Gu Xiaolang is left.

But she doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all. Old Madam Gu is afraid that she might be thinking about Yan Sanlang, so she has some other thoughts. She wants the third aunt to go back to her parents' home. If she can choose a sincere and satisfactory nephew, it would be the best.

Yingtao was talking to her young lady about the interesting things in the third aunt's yard when she saw "Cao Cao" himself.

"I said, don't talk about people behind their backs. Look, they're here."

Gu Xiaolang not only came by himself, but also with Gu Xiaoyun. As a newlywed, her face was naturally rosy, and she looked more like a woman. Seeing this, Du Jingyi chuckled.

"Look at the complexion of the second sister. It's so good that you can squeeze water out of it. I think the second brother-in-law must love you very much."

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoyun blushed rarely.

"Sister-in-law, are you teasing me again? In our Gu family, if we talk about the harmonious relationship between husband and wife, I'm afraid we have to look at the eldest brother and sister-in-law. Now they are going to have a few more children."

Du Jingyi chuckled when he heard it, and didn't say anything else, just asked one question.

"What do you want to see me about?"

"Well, sister-in-law, the Su family posted a message saying that they will hold a lotus picking contest in a few days, and asked us to go and join in the fun. I thought that sister-in-law can't go out now, so I came to ask if Du Bofu and Aunt Du want to go with us? The lotus picking contest is very lively, and most people in the city will go to watch it."

"Lotus picking contest?"

"Yes, the Su family has a large lotus pond outside the city, and a farm has been built around the lotus pond. Therefore, every summer, they always invite people to watch. The lotus pond is wide and large, covering several acres, so every time when the lotus is at its peak, my uncle will hold a contest, a Each person paddles a small boat and goes into the lotus pond to pick lotuses. The time for a stick of incense is the standard. Whoever picks the biggest, best, and most tickets will be the first picker and can get a golden lotus pod made of pure gold. Anyone can participate, so it is particularly lively. "

"It sounds interesting. Let me ask. I think Dad and Mom will also be interested."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry and let Uncle and Aunt go with us. It will take at most half a day to go back and forth, and it won't delay anything."

Now Du Jingyi may give birth at any time, so everyone in the family is also nervous. Originally, they didn't want to agree to this matter, but they thought that the Gu family had not participated in it for many years, so they agreed to go.

Gu Xiaochun was just pregnant and couldn't join in the excitement, so she stayed at home. As Su Erlang was the son of the Su family, he had to go back to help out at this time, so it was his duty to do so.

Therefore, even with Mrs. Gu and several other rooms, at least more than ten people would have to go there. Du Jingyi thought that his parents had not gone out much since they came to Jinling City, so he made the decision for them. Yes, I added something by the way.

"I haven't seen my sister-in-law and my eighth sister and my eighth brother-in-law before. When the time comes, go and call them in."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. I'll go and tell you later. I'll definitely take them all to have a look."

Hearing this, Du Jingyi smiled and nodded.

After Gu Xiaolang and Gu Xiaoyun left, Na Yingying said with some worry.

"Young Madam, everyone in the family is gone. Wouldn't it be troublesome if you were to give birth suddenly?"

"Don't worry, I'm giving birth. Even if they are at home, they can only wait outside. With Dr. Xia here, it won't be a problem. Besides, it doesn't necessarily happen at that time. I always look forward to waiting until the general comes back." It’s better.”

After hearing this, Cherry felt that it made sense.
