Chapter 28 Chapter 28 I grabbed a little husband for myself during the week of the New Year...

Xuan Jinyu hadn't eaten for the whole morning and was already hungry. Su Guanzhang was feeding her some freshly baked buns.

These buns were bought by his elder brother Su Guanyu outside Shengjing City in the morning, and there were still a few left uneaten. When he learned that his sister-in-law was pregnant, and knowing that pregnant women could not afford to go hungry, he gave them all to him.

"I don't want to eat anymore." Xuan Jinyu ate most of the bun and didn't feel hungry anymore, so she pushed Su Guanzhang's hand away.

The buns were filled with meat. Maybe it was because she ate too much roasted rabbit yesterday, so she didn’t want to eat meat anymore.

She even ate the buns by the soft skin. She took only one bite of the meat filling, and the greasy taste made her feel nauseous and she lost her appetite immediately.

Su Guanzhang stuffed the remaining meat filling into her mouth and swallowed it in a few mouthfuls. He then wet a handkerchief and wiped her face and hands, finally roughly wiping his own hands which were slightly greasy.

Xuan Jinyu no longer had the same good mood to play with him as before. She leaned against him listlessly and didn't want to talk.

What's going on?

Su Guanzhang touched the palm of her hand, felt her warm body temperature, and took her pulse again. He felt relieved, as long as she was not sick.

"Are you hot?" he asked. Although they tried to walk in the shade, the sun was a bit strong and they were afraid she would be burned.

How long had she been sitting in the shade? Was it still hot?

Normally, Xuan Jinyu would have rolled her eyes at him.

But at this moment she felt listless, and only felt her stomach churning. Although she did not answer him, she still shook her head at him.

"Morning sickness?" he asked.

Su Guanzhang held her sideways in his arms, rubbed the acupuncture points on her hands, and observed her expression from time to time.

The refreshing mountain breeze soon took away the greasy smell of the buns. Xuan Jinyu took a deep breath, and her complexion finally looked a little better.

Su Guanzhang continued to massage her solar plexus gently, "If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me." He felt a little distressed. She was probably suffering from morning sickness, but he couldn't feel bad for her.

"But are you tired of the meat filling in the buns?" he asked again.

Xuan Jinyu finally nodded this time.

"Blame me. I shouldn't have given you the meat buns."

Su Guanzhang felt a little guilty, remembering that she hadn't even finished a bun just now, so she must not be full, so he spoke again.

"I'll make you some fish soup later. Can you eat a little more?"

Xuan Jinyu calmed down a bit, and her complexion looked a little better. Upon hearing this, she looked at him and asked, "You can also cook fish soup?"

"The army is not in a hurry on its return journey. Sometimes when they pass by a river, they will cook some soup if they don't want to eat grilled fish." Su Guanzhang took out a small jar he carried with him, took out a sour plum and stuffed it into her mouth.

Although he was a major general, he only gave orders when commanding a battle on the battlefield. He did not enjoy any privileges at other times.

He didn't want to trouble the fireman to prepare this kind of meal, so he learned to do it himself.

After doing it many times, he has mastered the timing of the heat very well.

Xuan Jinyu had a sour plum in her mouth, and he was massaging her body parts. The nausea that came up soon disappeared.

"Then I want to drink it," she said.

Su Guanzhang touched her head.

After Xuan Jinyu agreed, he changed his hands back to the acupoint and massaged her for a while with neither light nor heavy pressure.

Then he stood up and said, "I'm going to make fish soup. Come, sit with mother for a while, okay?"

Xuan Jinyu agreed and let him half support and half hug her to help her stand up.

On the other side, Su Guanyu had finished talking to his wife and children. The two children had played enough with their father and let him go.

Xu Xuanniang went to find her two sisters-in-law to help her make a fire and cook, so Su Guanyu got up and went to find his parents.

Just at this time, Su Guanzhang and Xuan Jinyu also arrived.

After a brief greeting, Su Guanzhang walked towards his sisters-in-law, took half a bucket of fish, and prepared to make fish soup.

The three sisters-in-law, Xu Xuanniang, Chang Meiyan and Ding Qianqian, stared at their brother-in-law as he skillfully and naturally fried fish and made soup. They couldn't help but wink at each other and secretly smiled.

Apart from the cook, this was the first time they saw a man so skilled in cooking, and this man was their brother-in-law.

"My fish soup looks good, little brother." Seeing Su Guanzhang looking at her sharply, Xu Xuanniang quickly composed herself and praised.

Chang Meiyan and Ding Qianqian also nodded repeatedly.

"It's not easy for Jinyu to be pregnant. As her husband, you have to be more considerate." Ding Qianqian said.

Chang Meiyan nodded and said mischievously, "I have several recipes for home-cooked dishes here, which are most suitable for pregnant women. Do you want to learn them so that you can cook for Jinyu?"

Chang Meiyan married Su Guanwen, the older twin brother of the Su family, and gave birth to twins herself, a boy and a girl. Pregnancy was difficult. Her mother-in-law and family members loved her and found many suitable prescriptions for her, which she memorized.

Su Guanzhang had heard this from his third brother Su Guanwen, and he nodded in agreement. "Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."

The three sisters-in-law all lit up.

Chang Meiyan suppressed her laughter and said, "It just so happens that there are a lot of fresh fish and shrimp today. I'll tell you and you can cook it."

Su Guanzhang felt a little uncomfortable being laughed at by his three sisters-in-law, but he maintained his cool and indifferent expression. "In that case, I'll have to trouble you, sister-in-law."

Ding Qianqian: "I'll light the fire."

Xu Xuanniang: "Let me help you."

The three sisters-in-law had a chance to relax and enjoy watching their normally cool and reserved brother-in-law cooking with a spatula in hand. They were all delighted.

Here, Xu Yu Niang asked Xuan Jinyu to sit next to her, gently held her hand, and looked at her slightly pale face, "Are you suffering from morning sickness again?"

With her father-in-law and uncle both present, Xuan Jinyu felt a little embarrassed and smiled at her mother-in-law, "It's all right now."

"This child is quite well-behaved and doesn't bother you much." Xu Yu Niang said, looking up at Su Guanyu, "Unlike when I was pregnant with your eldest brother, I vomited all day long."

"After he came out, he was still a noisy boy, disturbing the wet nurses and maids." Xu Yu Niang did not hesitate to expose her eldest son's past in front of her younger daughter-in-law.

"I never thought I'd grow up like this." Xu Yu Niang curled her lips. What's the point of laughing? Isn't he still an old scholar at heart?

She raised two sons, but neither of them was close to her. Daughters were better.

"He's only three years old. I can't even kiss him."

Xu Yu Niang complained, "I don't know where she learned this perverted idea, saying that a little man can't be kissed on the face by his mother, only by his future daughter-in-law."

Xuan Jinyu almost couldn't hold back her expression, but she managed to hold it in.

She secretly glanced at her uncle and saw that he had lost the smile that was always on his face and looked embarrassed, so she withdrew her gaze and continued to listen quietly to what her mother-in-law said.

Su Sheng, who was sitting on the other side of Xu Yu Niang, touched his nose.

Now his eldest grandson is eight years old, and the jealousy he felt when he was young always hurts him.

Fortunately, his wife has never suspected him until now.

Xu Yu Niang was in high spirits and didn't notice her husband's strange behavior at all. She was only focused on talking to her daughter-in-law.

"I was hoping your child would be a sweet and caring one. Don't be like his/her father, always sullen. You're already pretty good."

Jinyu is so lively! She laughs when she wants to laugh and cries when she wants to cry.

It's okay to be a little more delicate. This way, the couple's family life will be lively and cheerful, and it may even enhance the relationship between the couple.

"I also hope to be like me." Xuan Jinyu nodded slightly.

If she looked like Su Guanzhang, that wooden stake, it would be fine if it was just a father and son, she could scold both of them. But if it was a father and daughter, if her sweet and soft daughter looked like her father, she would cry in her dreams at night.

The topic then turned to the experience of pregnancy and child-rearing, and at this time Xu Yu Niang couldn't help but reveal the children's secrets.

Xu Yu Niang: "If you want to talk about fun, it was when I first learned to speak."

She laughed, "Not long after your eldest brother started learning to speak, he learned the word 'seven' one day and started saying 'seven seven seven' the whole time. I laughed at him and wondered if he wanted a wife."

Xu Yu Niang thought about what happened in the past and laughed until tears came out. Even Su Sheng had a smile on his face.

"Then Yu said, 'Yes, yes,' and everyone in the room laughed."

There was also a hint of a smile on Xuan Jinyu's face.

"I asked him, 'Where is my wife?' It just so happened that your aunt was visiting me at that time, so he pointed at your aunt's belly and said 'wife' is here."

"It's truly fate sent by heaven. Not long after your aunt returned home, she diagnosed her pregnancy."

It turns out there are such interesting things between the elder brother and his wife.

Xuan Jinyu covered her face with her hands, leaving only her smiling eyes exposed.

"That's more than that," Xu Yu Niang wiped away the tears of laughter, "When your eldest sister-in-law was doing her one-year-old ceremony, she originally grabbed a bamboo sword. But your eldest brother coveted the sword and took it himself when the adults weren't paying attention."

"Before the adults could stop him, he had already snatched the little cousin's bamboo sword."

There is such a thing!

Xuan Jinyu looked at the now steady and composed Crown Prince General with his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and found it hard to connect him with the naughty little kid in her mother-in-law's words who would compete with her cousin for the Zhou Li.

"When Xuan Jieer saw that she couldn't snatch the gift from her little cousin, she held his hand tightly and wanted the adults to help her get her gift back." Xu Yu Niang fell into memories and unconsciously changed the way she addressed Xu Xuan Niang.

"In the end, the adults were all laughing, saying that she had grabbed a little husband for herself during the week-long celebration."

"It was just a joke at the time, but I never thought that the two children would become a real family when they grew up."

"Brother and sister-in-law are also destined to be together." Xuan Jinyu finally spoke, using the words her mother-in-law had just used.

Xu Yu Niang nodded, "Who says it's not true? Otherwise, considering he stole his own little cousin's ceremonial ceremony when he was only two years old, which respectable family in the capital would be willing to marry their daughter to him?"

Although Dasheng attached great importance to the one-year-old ceremony for children, considering it the first major ceremony in life and not allowing any mistakes, the two-year-old child took the bamboo sword that he was interested in, and he did not intend to disrupt his little cousin's one-year-old ceremony.

Although it may not sound good to say it out loud, everyone will always understand that children are still young and don't understand things.

It's not that serious.

Xuan Jinyu laughed, but she could also see that her mother-in-law was slandering her uncle, so she tactfully didn't point it out.
