It is July, the hottest month of the year. Summer is coming to an end and autumn is quietly approaching. The weather is finally not as hot as before.
In Chang'an City, the people lived in harmony and the weather was good. Yun Xiangye's days in the embroidery workshop were ordinary and comfortable. She finally no longer felt that Chang'an City was oppressive to her.
Nuonuo is obviously getting a little older. The spring clothes from the first half of the year are now a little tight for Nuonuo to wear in the evening. I have to buy her some new clothes.
Gu Yan entered the embroidery workshop and saw Yun Xiangye embroidering clothes for Nuonuo. She said, "You are busy enough with the business of the embroidery workshop every day. Why do you want to make clothes for Nuonuo yourself?"
Yun Xiangye said, "Although the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop are all skilled, it's for Nuonuo to wear after all, so I have to put in more effort."
Yun Xiangye said, "I also made a few sets for my sister's child. I know that sister's child will never lack clothes. The embroiderers in the Shanggong Bureau must be much more dedicated than I am. But just consider it my token of my appreciation. Time flies so fast. Sister's child is about to be born, and my younger sister's child will be born soon..."
Yun Xiangye sighed and said, "I'm not by her side. I wonder if she will be afraid of giving birth... Sigh."
Yun Xiangye is worried about her sister at this moment.
Correspondence is very slow, and even if a letter is sent by carrier pigeon, it will not be received in a short time.
Moreover, Yun Xiangye only reported good news to Shuangbai, and she was afraid that her sister would also only report good news and not bad news.
Gu Yan said, "Sister, you will be safe. Besides, you have raised your brother-in-law under your care. Didn't he swear an oath? If he dares to treat you badly, he will be struck by lightning. Besides, your brother-in-law knows my identity now, so he will definitely not treat you badly."
Yun Xiangye thought to herself that she should really think on the bright side.
I just hope my sister is well.
Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye in his arms, gently placed his hand on her belly and said, "Nuonuo has been looking forward to having a sister. I wonder if I can fulfill her wish by the end of this year."
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan and said, "Your first child has my surname Yun, and your second child also has the surname Yun. Will your father and grandmother have any objections?"
Gu Yan said, "My father doesn't bother to care about me. Besides my mother, he only cares about state affairs. My grandmother definitely wants a great-grandson with the surname Gu, but you and I are still young, so it won't be difficult to have five or six more children in the future. My parents are already old, but they still gave birth to Jingru, didn't they?"
A sister who is eighteen years younger than him and only one year older than his daughter.
Yun Xiangye asked, "Who wants to give birth to five or six children for you? That would be too much of a drain on your body. What do you think of me as? A sow raised on your farm?"
Gu Yan smiled and said, "I was wrong. Then I will fulfill Nuonuo's wish and give her another sister."
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but chuckle. "What about your Gu family's hereditary throne? You're not thinking of finding another woman to have a child with, are you?"
Gu Yan said: "In the future, let Nuonuo marry a son-in-law to inherit the Gu family throne. What's the difficulty?"
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan in surprise, "Do you really think so?"
Gu Yan said, "Well, if you really think so, could it be that daughters are not the bloodline of our Gu family? Why can only sons be?"
Yun Xiangye leaned in Gu Yan's arms. She was one of the only two daughters in her family and had actually been ridiculed a lot in Fangqiao Town. When she went out with her parents as a child, everyone would praise her parents for being blessed with such beautiful daughters.
However, those people would always add that the two daughters’ embroidery workshop would be taken over by outsiders in the future.
Yun Xiangye had been annoyed by these words since she was a child, so if Gu Yan's aunt and uncle had not agreed to let the first child take the surname Yun, Yun Xiangye would never have married Gu Yan even for the favor of saving her life.
Yun Xiangye was glad that Gu Yan was the same as her father.
Gu Yan stroked Yun Xiangye's hair and asked, "How about we go to my uncle's house at noon on Mid-Autumn Festival and come back to my house to reunite at night?"
Yun Xiangye asked, "Aren't you going to the palace to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet?"
Gu Yan said: "You should also go to the palace banquet."
Yun Xiangye smiled and said, "What kind of status do I have to attend the palace banquet now?"
Gu Yan said, "I don't need any status to attend the palace banquet. I'll just ask the Queen for an invitation. Now everyone outside is laughing at me for dressing up to entertain my wife. Just pretend to be nice and give me some face. Don't let me be laughed at for dressing up as a woman and not being able to coax my wife and children back."
Yun Xiangye said, "Okay then."
However, she was not giving Gu Yan this favor, she was just thinking about having a Mid-Autumn Festival reunion for her uncle, aunt and sister.
…
In the East Palace.
Ye Wanhe's belly grew bigger and bigger, and it became increasingly difficult for her to move.
The seven-month-old belly is very obvious, and now we have to worry about the baby being born prematurely.
The royal grandson in her belly was extremely important, so when Zhao Yun was busy with official business outside, Ye Wanhe stayed in the bedroom and never went out.
At noon that day, Zhao Yun left the palace and went to the military camp to reward the troops who had returned from suppressing bandits and providing disaster relief. Ye Wanhe tossed and turned in the bedroom during her nap but couldn't fall asleep.
For some unknown reason, Ye Wanhe dismissed the servants and knocked on the door of the underground palace. She knocked according to the secret code she remembered last time. Soon, Ah Hong inside opened the door for her.
Seeing Ah Hong, Ye Wanhe smiled faintly and said, "Do you have any left of the sesame candy I gave you last time?"
Although Zhao Yun said that things outside were not clean, the sesame candies made in the palace did not taste the same as when she was a child. She wanted to try it, and the sesame candies sold at the vendors tasted the same.
Ah Hong made a gesture that Ye Wanhe could not understand, then turned and entered the underground palace. Soon, he took out two pieces of sesame candies and gestured with his fingers.
