Chapter 865 Su Yunting's Surprise
After Shuyao came to terms with it, she felt better and her life became more enjoyable.
When the child was two months old, she couldn't help but tell Gu Nanxi the news of her pregnancy.
"What? I'm going to be a grandmother?"
Gu Nanxi's head was buzzing. Although she often urged her children to get married and have children, she was just urging them. She was not prepared to be a grandmother at all.
"What should I prepare?" Gu Nanxi was like a headless fly, hammering here and there, ordering Lumei and the servants in the mansion around.
The delivery room will be prepared and disinfected comprehensively in a while.
After a while, he started to worry whether Shuyao would be in danger while giving birth, so he prepared to send someone to Yunzhou Medical College to call a few reliable obstetricians and gynecologists.
After a while, he started to worry that Shuyao would have no milk after the baby was born, so he asked Shuyao whether he should prepare a wet nurse or buy a few cows to feed the baby with milk.
Lu Mei held back Gu Nanxi who wanted to make toys for the child herself and said, "Master, my good master, please calm down quickly!"
Shuyao also advised: "The child is not yet three months old, so it is not considered a stable pregnancy. Mother, let's be quiet for now and don't disturb the Goddess of Childbirth."
There is indeed such a saying in the Great Zhou Dynasty that if the pregnancy is less than three months, it cannot be announced to the public, otherwise it is easy to miscarry.
Gu Nanxi sat down and softened her voice, fearing to scare the pregnant woman: "Shuyao, during pregnancy, affected by hormones, pregnant women tend to worry too much and become sentimental. This is normal, you don't have to suppress yourself."
"Just tell Lumei what you want to eat. As long as it's not dragon liver or phoenix gall, we can find it for you."
"If someone makes you angry, you don't have to bear it, just fight back. If it's that bastard Erlang, you can hit him or scold him. If you feel tired of hitting him, just tell me and I'll help you."
"If someone whispers something about a boy or a girl in your ear, ignore them. We don't have that much to say in our family. Boys and girls are both our precious children. Girls can also inherit the family business."
Shuyao felt sad and upset. She knew that her mother-in-law was comforting her in disguise.
There is nothing wrong with wanting power.
Whether to fight or not to fight, it all comes from one’s heart.
"I know, mother."
As the days passed, Shuyao's belly became slightly bulging.
Su Yunting found Huang Jincheng through Su Xuanming and wanted to ask him for a favor.
He wanted to make it up to Shuyao and prepare a surprise for her.
Huang Jincheng naturally didn't say anything and set off quickly.
Just a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the surprise prepared by Su Yunting finally arrived.
"Shuyao, come and see who's here?"
Shuyao walked to the door and looked at the people in front of her. Tears fell like pearls from a broken string.
She walked forward a little quickly, stopped in front of an old man, and knelt down, "Grandfather! Shuyao is unfilial. She has never been in your arms, and she has made you and your family worry about her."
The old man quickly helped Shuyao up: "No, no. You are extraordinary today, how can you show us such a great courtesy?"
Shuyao said sincerely: "You are my grandfather. No matter who I am, you can accept this gift!"
"Okay, okay. After receiving Jiro's letter, your uncles and I decided to move our family to Kyoto. Do you welcome us?"
Shuyao turned her gaze to the people behind her.
Uncles, aunts, cousins, and sisters stood in several rows.
The uncles felt a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look at Shuyao.
The aunts nudged their uncle with their elbows, their eyes filled with eager urging.
Shuyao held her grandfather's hand and said sincerely, "That's great. Over the years, I have often thought of you and my uncles. Even in my dreams, I think of the delicious food my aunts made, and I often think of the days when I played happily with my brothers and sisters."
These words take everyone into consideration.
The uncles breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, they were embarrassed to see Shuyao.
At first, Shuyao insisted on marrying Su Erlang, but they all disagreed.
The scene became extremely ugly, and in the end they even opened an ancestral hall and divided the family.
At that time, they thought that the Duke of Yun could only occupy Yunzhou at most, and he had offended the Emperor of the Great Zhou, so his life would definitely be difficult.
As ordinary people, they admired Duke Yun from the bottom of their hearts.
However, they firmly disagreed to become relatives with Duke Yun and share the risks.
Unexpectedly, the speed at which Duke Yun's power grew was just like that of the wise founding emperors in the storybooks. In just a few years, he quickly and efficiently occupied the area north of the Yangtze River.
At this time, they came to Kyoto to seek refuge with Shuyao, as if they were so vain.
None of the uncles could bring themselves to do this.
It’s different for aunts, they have to make plans for their own children.
If they continue to stay in the south, the best they can do is become a boat captain.
It’s different in Kyoto. Shuyao can’t just watch her brothers and sisters continue to work hard, right?
Based on this relationship, he has to be arranged more or less. Even if it is just the title of an official without real power, isn't it still an official title?
The future of the next generation and the next generation will be completely different.
The eldest aunt came over with a smile, her eyes narrowed into slits with joy, and held Shuyao's hand intimately: "Oh, you've grown taller and thinner. It's rare that you still like the food I cook. Tomorrow, I'll make it and send it to you. This time I brought homemade fish head sauce and the best hairy crabs. I guarantee that you will still taste the same as before."
Shuyao touched her belly, shook her head and smiled with a maternal glow, "I'm not lucky enough to eat hairy crabs this year. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat them next year. I'll ask my aunt to cook them for me again."
Everyone looked at her actions with surprise in their eyes.
"Shuyao, what is this?"
Shuyao nodded happily.
"Oh! This is such a happy event, why are you still standing here? Go back to the house quickly, we don't need your entertainment." My aunt was so excited that she let go of my hand and took several steps back.
Grandfather glanced at Shuyao with a hint of reprimand: "You, you are still childish! We came to see you after traveling so long without washing up. What if you got sick? You should have told us about this earlier, and we would have found a place to wash up before coming to see you."
Shuyao said coquettishly: "I am so happy!"
"No matter how happy I am. Okay, that's all for today. We'll come back to see you tomorrow."
Su Yunting stepped forward and led the way himself: "My mother was very happy to hear that you were coming. She found a large house in Anlefang for you to stay. I will take you there."
It was said to be a place to stay, but in fact it was just a gift of a big house to them.
Duke Yun gave such face that Shuyao and everyone else were extremely happy.
