"Then I will send a message to my eldest brother now, asking him to reply to the Beiyi court and implement this matter as soon as possible. After the plum blossom viewing banquet tomorrow, you and your son will set off with us to return to Xirong to celebrate the New Year. Father and Mother have been urging us to do this!"
"Okay!" Baili Qingluan nodded, "However, I need to ask An Ge'er and the princess first. The east wing has been cleaned up. You can go and rest..."
After Baili Qingluan arranged for the uncle and nephew to rest, she went to Su Ning'an's room.
When Baili Qingluan gently pushed open the door with tea and snacks, Su Ning'an sat up from the bed with sleepy eyes.
"Mom, didn't you take a nap?"
"Mother is not sleepy."
"What about my uncle and cousin?"
"I just finished talking with them and fell asleep in the side room." Baili Qingluan said as she fed him tea.
"After the plum blossom viewing banquet tomorrow, we'll go back to Xirong to celebrate the New Year, okay?"
Su Ning'an counted on his fingers, "It's quite far to get to the Xirong capital, right? With more than half a month left, won't it be too late?"
"It would be quick to take a carriage out of Beiyi and then a fast horse back to the capital. Mother is just worried that you'll be tired since you've never been far away."
"I don't get tired, and I'm not afraid of the cold. I want to accompany my mother back to Xirong to see my family! I'll be back after the New Year!"
"Of course, mother won't stop you. I'll come back with you."
"Then how will mother deal with the Song family?"
Baili Qingluan did not hide anything and briefly told him about the Song family being exiled to the Northwest Province to plant trees and how Song Linyuan and Yu Chengxin were detained together.
"I promised Song Linyuan that I would take care of Song Shuyi."
"The Song family's exile is based on Beiyi law, but the location of exile is in the northwest province of Xirong, so naturally, children under the age of seven are not included."
Su Ning'an looked out the window and saw a little snow in the yard.
Baili Qingluan followed his gaze and thought, "Song Linyuan's self-exposure of his crimes stopped the war and prevented more innocent casualties. He was doing the right thing for the people. Then, we will exile the Song family after the spring."
Su Ning'an turned over and got out of bed, "I'm going back to Xirong for the New Year. I want to talk to the princess' mother and father."
"Mom will go and talk, you go and paint."
"Chu Yu, not many people in the mansion know about this, so don't let it slip."
Perhaps Su Xingyi was so happy to be a father that he couldn't help but smile.
He ran into Si Chuyu who came out to buy fruits and vegetables for Lu Yuan, and could not resist Si Chuyu's questioning and revealed the fact that he was going to be a father.
Si Chuyu took him to buy fruits and vegetables, and personally sent Su Xingyi back to the Princess's Mansion.
"Don't worry, I won't let anything slip in front of the children. But you and your wife can't keep it a secret for too long. Don't wait until after the plum blossom viewing banquet to tell the children. Tell them at the banquet tomorrow and make the children happy."
"Brother-in-law, what big thing is it that you want to hide from the children?" Baili Qingluan's pleasant voice came from the front left.
Brother-in-law?
Si Chuyu saw Baili Qingluan suddenly appear. She looked a bit like An Ge'er. Judging from her aura and clothing style, she must not be an ordinary person!
"Xingyi, she is An Ge'er's mother, right?"
"Chu Yu, you have good eyesight." Su Xingyi brought Si Chuyu to Baili Qingluan and said, "Sister Qingluan, this is Jie Ge'er's brother-in-law, Si Chuyu, the eldest son of the aristocratic Si family."
"So you're the old man from the Si family. I'm An'er's biological mother. It's fate that Jie'er and An'er can become good brothers."
Si Chuyu smiled and said, "I hope they will be good brothers for life."
"Of course they will be good brothers for life. What did you just say about happy things that can't be hidden from the children for too long?"
Baili Qingluan glanced at the items in their hands, which were all fruits and snacks needed to nourish the body.
These could be left to the servants to buy, but Su Xingyi decided to buy them himself during his nap.
Then I thought about the few dishes Xiao Lingyu ate alone at lunch. He ate very slowly, obviously feeling uncomfortable in his stomach...
"Sister is pregnant, right?"
Su Xingyi and Si Chuyu were stunned when they heard this. They didn't say anything, so how did she know?
"Yes, Sister Qingluan, the children don't know yet. Don't tell An Ge'er yet. Xiaoyu and I will tell the children in person."
"This is a happy event in the mansion. There is no need to hide it. Since you and your wife want to tell the children about this in person, I will naturally not say anything. I just need to go see my sister. Let's go together."
"Okay, I won't go in. A Yuan is still waiting for me. I'll go back first."
Si Chuyu went to the yamen first, carrying the fresh fruits and vegetables he had bought.
"Are you serious? The princess... is really pregnant?" Qi Lianli was so excited that he almost bit his tongue.
"It's absolutely true. Master Su has come out to buy them personally. Tomorrow is the plum blossom viewing banquet. Sir Qi, please send someone to inform the guests so that they can prepare in advance."
"Okay, okay, I understand."
After seeing Si Chuyu off, Qi Lianli quickly wrote a letter and secretly sent it to the capital.
Then he asked Lin Yu to take people to notify each household, and he took a carriage to Langyao Linghua Temple, ten miles outside the city.
"Sister, can't you and your son return to Xirong after the New Year?"
The mother and son suddenly had to leave, and Xiao Lingyu was reluctant and very unwilling to let them go.
I feel uneasy when Ang'er is not around.
Su Xingyi also didn't want Su Ning'an to return to Xirong so early. The key point was that no one knew when An Ge'er would come back after going to Xirong, and the distance between Xirong and Beiyi was so far.
"Sister Qingluan, An Ge'er hasn't spent the New Year with Xiaoyu yet. Now that Xiaoyu is pregnant, why don't you go back after the New Year or the beginning of spring? Okay?"
"Sister." Xiao Lingyu hugged Baili Qingluan's arm, "Xingyi and I finally had a child. If you and your son weren't here, I wouldn't be able to eat or sleep. This baby is not easy to raise..."
Xiao Lingyu even resorted to acting like a spoiled child. After all, Baili Qingluan was older than her, so it wasn't shameful.
Ang'er was leaving suddenly, and it was when she was pregnant. She really didn't want Ang'er to leave so early.
"Then we'll return to Xirong after the New Year when spring comes and flowers bloom."
"Then when I'm about to give birth, you and your son must rush back! Our family must be together."
"Okay, okay, I promise you." Baili Qingluan didn't expect that the princess was so old and still liked to act coquettishly, and she couldn't resist it.
"Great!" Xiao Lingyu quickly got out of bed and walked out with Baili Qingluan in his hand. "Let's go to the warm room and continue making clothes for the children. I'll also make a few sets of clothes and shoes for the baby in my belly."
"Xiao Yu!" Su Xingyi quickly held her back, "You're heavy and can't get tired. I'll do the clothes."
"Don't worry, I'm in good health and still have the energy to make clothes for the children. If you really want to work, you can cook dinner for me yourself."
After saying that, he pulled Baili Qingluan away.
Su Xingyi was still worried, so he followed them to the warm room.
