Chapter 1031 The Really Good Person is You
Unexpectedly, as soon as I got there, I heard someone shouting "General's wife?"
Lan Feng and Jiang Xiaowei turned around and saw a woman in coarse clothes and a simple mask looking at them, holding a little boy in her arms.
Jiang Xiaowei felt that the little boy looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.
Lan Feng instinctively protected Jiang Xiaowei and asked, "Who are you?"
The woman took off her mask, revealing her scarred face. It turned out to be Ge Lianxiang. No wonder Jiang Xiaowei felt that the little boy looked familiar.
"Ge Lianxiang, why are you here? And with the child..." Lan Feng asked.
Ge Lianxiang put on her mask again and explained, "Tonight is the Lantern Festival, and although the lanterns are beautiful, they are too expensive for us.
I made some simple lanterns out of oranges, hoping to sell them to supplement my family's income. And there are many people wearing masks tonight, so my outfit doesn't look out of place."
Jiang Xiao smiled and responded: "It's not easy for you to do this. Your embroidery skills are pretty good. In fact, you can go to the city to find some embroidery work."
Ge Lianxiang said somewhat frustratedly: "I went there, but they rejected me when they saw my face."
Jiang Xiaowei said gently: "There will always be bosses who don't judge people by appearance."
She noticed that the child was more lively than before, and Ge Lianxiang nodded in thanks.
Afterwards, Ge Lianxiang asked the child to give the small orange lantern in his hand to Jiang Xiaowei to express his gratitude.
The little boy walked over obediently, handed the lamp to Jiang Xiaowei and said, "Madam, here you go!"
Jiang Xiaowei was touched by the cuteness of the little boy. She took the orange lantern and said, "I'll take it. Thank you!"
Ge Lianxiang said quickly: "You saved my life, mother and son. How dare you thank me?"
At this time, a group of children came to buy lights. Jiang Xiao smiled and said, "Then we won't bother you."
Lan Feng quietly put some silver in the little boy's arms, and then left with Jiang Xiaowei.
After walking about a hundred steps, Jiang Xiaowei gently squeezed his palm and said softly, "Husband, you are so kind."
She witnessed what he did and knew that he was not only a great hero, but also a kind-hearted person.
Lan Feng smiled and responded: "I just did what you wanted to do. The real good person is you."
He noticed that Xiaobao looked in good spirits, and guessed that Ge Lianxiang and her children should be living well now, so there was actually no need to give her the ingot of silver.
But seeing the pity for Xiaobao in Jiang Xiaowei's eyes, he couldn't help but do that, just to make her happy.
He felt that his smile was gentle and kind, and that he would be an excellent mother in the future.
"You're the best anyway."
In Jiang Xiaowei's heart, he is the best man in the world, and being able to be with him is her greatest luck.
As soon as she finished speaking, the baby in her belly suddenly kicked, making her laugh.
Lan Feng asked with concern: "Xiao Wei, what's wrong?"
"The child just moved again."
Since New Year's Eve, the child has been active almost every day, and Lan Feng always likes to touch her belly when the child moves.
After the Lantern Festival, he would have to go to the northwestern border to guard it.
Because she was pregnant, it was inconvenient for her to travel long distances, so she could only wait for the birth of the baby in the capital. After she gave birth, he would send someone to pick her up to reunite with him.
Although he hadn't left yet, he already started to miss them.
But due to responsibility, we have to separate temporarily, so we cherish every moment of the present even more.
"This baby is always moving around in your belly. He will definitely be very naughty in the future."
Jiang Xiao smiled and replied, "It's okay for boys to be a little naughty."
"really."
Lan Feng also smiled and said: "According to my observation, naughty children are often more able to endure hardships."
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, thinking that he might be a strict father in the future. As long as the child is disobedient, he may be punished.
"My dear, I think that children don't necessarily need to be beaten or scolded to become successful..."
Lan Feng couldn't help laughing. "With you educating the child, how can it be bad? I guess it would be hard for me to find an excuse to teach the child a lesson even if I wanted to, so you don't have to worry."
Jiang Xiaowei whispered: "You have too much confidence in me."
Even she herself was not sure whether she could be a good mother, but he had full trust in her, and this trust made her feel extremely warm.
Lan Feng leaned close to her ear and whispered, "If I say you can do it, then it's fine. Under your guidance, our child will definitely make the General's Mansion proud."
Jiang Xiaowei looked up at him and said, "Husband, I will not let you down."
Lan Feng tapped her forehead and said, "Let's go to the river to release lotus lanterns."
Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xue took Jiang Heng for a long walk. He was worried that she would be tired as she was pregnant, so he suggested that they find a place to rest.
But Jiang Xue laughed and said that she was not those weak ladies from noble families, she was not tired at all and could still keep walking.
Xiao Zhan insisted: "Even if you are not tired, the child may be tired."
Jiang Heng also shook his head to indicate that he was not tired.
Hearing this, Jiang Xue smiled and said, "Heng'er did a great job of dismantling it."
However, Jiang Heng went on to explain that men and people with strong martial arts skills are naturally less likely to get tired, but reminded them to pay attention to protecting the little life in the belly and suggested that they listen to their cousin and rest first.
After being persuaded by the two nagging men, Jiang Xue agreed, and they stopped at a nearby tea stall.
As soon as he sat down, Fu Dong spotted Jiang Xiaoan not far away and waved to him excitedly. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaoan turned around and ran away immediately after seeing this.
Fu Dong was extremely confused and didn't understand why Jiang Xiaoan reacted like that.
Jiang Xue explained that Jiang Xiaoan might be hiding from them instead of Fu Dong.
After Xiao Zhan had talked to Jiang Xiaoan at the Princess's Mansion last time, it was inevitable that they would be awkward when they met again. Xiao Zhan decided to let Fu Dong go to Jiang Xiaoan right now to check Xiaoxue's pulse.
Jiang Xiaoan was originally enjoying his time alone, but he didn't expect to meet them. His first reaction was to run away because the last conversation made him feel embarrassed.
However, he was caught by Fu Dong before he ran far. Fu Dong conveyed the prince consort's intention, and Jiang Xiaoan tried to refuse, hoping to go another day.
Fu Dong was full of disbelief: "Today is the Lantern Festival, what else can you do?"
"It's the Lantern Festival, so I have special arrangements."
Jiang Xiaoan explained: "There is a good line in an ancient poem, 'The moon is above the treetops, and we make appointments after dusk'. Isn't this a good day for a date?"
"It's past dusk now. Where is your beauty?"
Jiang Xiaoan replied: "She is waiting for me on the other side of the river. I have to hurry over, otherwise it will be too late. Commander Fu Dong, please give a message to my third cousin, thank you!"
After saying that, he wanted to run away again, but Fudong held his hand tightly.
"Go see the Prince Consort first, then you can go to the appointment."
Jiang Xiaoan said anxiously: "It is said that it is better to destroy ten temples than to destroy a marriage. How can you do this?"
"Jiang Xiaoan, even if you really have an appointment with a certain beauty, in the strict etiquette of the country, it is impossible for a lady from a noble family to meet a man in private.
So, I think that beauty might be a prostitute. Even if you are willing, the Jiang family will not agree to let you marry her.
