Wei Xuanning changed into clothes that he had ordered at a high price in Jiangnan. He had forgotten to burn incense and bathe for the past few days. He only changed into a new set of clothes when he heard the doctor say that Yurong was really about to wake up.

His hair had just been combed, and he came to Yurong with it loose.

Unexpectedly, the little girl was staring at him with sparkling eyes. Wei Xuanning asked with concern: "How are you? Are you feeling unwell? Thank you for your hard work. I never thought that giving birth would be so painful. Yurong, you are weak, so you don't have to give birth again in the future. Anyway, we both have a son, okay?"

Yurong looked at Li Rui beside her, and was too embarrassed to say that she agreed, and even pretended to persuade her: "Brother Xuanning, you can't say that, let's just let it go."

Having said that, he gave Wei Xuanning a look.

Wei Xuanning understood and said to Li Rui and the others, "Go and prepare meals for Grandma. I need to talk to her."

"yes."

After the servants left, Yurong crawled into his arms. His arms were so warm and fragrant. She took a deep breath and said, "I only want to have one child. My stomach hurts so much."

"Just cry if it hurts, okay?" He saw that she was very strong in the delivery room. She was obviously in a lot of pain, but she was still enduring it and just screamed at most.

"You can cry." Wei Xuanning looked at her with eyes full of pity again.

Yurong bit her lower lip and shook her head innocently. She really tried to hold it back and didn't want to cry. Although it was very painful at the time, it was all worth it to be able to have him treat her so seriously and well.

She tilted her head and tried to comfort him, "I won't cry, because even though it hurts a little, it's still bearable."

On the contrary, she was afraid that he would scare her and that she would have a shadow over her sexual intercourse in the future. She heard that once a man saw a woman giving birth, he never wanted to touch a woman again.

Wei Xuanning scratched her nose and said, "You are so sensible. This makes me feel even more distressed."

He held her tightly in his arms and patted her back as if she were a baby.

Yurong unconsciously felt that she was not so cruel anymore, and sometimes she was even very soft-hearted, especially when she saw her own children.

In just a few days, the little guy's red skin turned into white and tender skin. His lanugo was very long, and he was feeding with his eyes closed. He looked very big. When Yurong saw his little appearance, she thought of Wei Xuanning, and couldn't help but imagine whether Wei Xuanning was also so cute when he was a child.

She and Wei Xuanning did not know each other when they were young, so she had no idea how naughty and cheerful he was.

But she and he had this little doll, and the little doll might be just like him.

"The little boy is so handsome." Xuebai felt as if she saw a person who would be popular in Kyoto in the future. After all, the father and mother were both good-looking, so the child would not be bad.

Yurong held the child in her arms and pressed her face against his cheeks, feeling more and more satisfied.

She was taking care of her body during the confinement period. Fortunately, she was still young, and the servants at home took good care of her. Wei Xuanning was even more considerate, which made Yurong feel more comfortable.

Li Rui and other servants respected Yurong even more. After all, the eldest lady was able to receive such good care from the eldest master. In the rear house, a woman's status depends on the favor of men.

"Are you making this specially for Grandma?" Xuebai found it funny to see Lirui making sweet soup. Lirui certainly had some good cooking skills, but she was always making estimates. Now that she saw Grandma being favored, she immediately showed her cards.

Li Rui felt that Xue Bai was speaking the truth. She was conscientiously boiling the sweet soup in the small pot and said naturally, "In the past, the eldest master only had a lantern with Miss Gao and studied with her at night, but those were all for fun. It's nothing like now. He is so proud that he is willing to do such a dirty thing."

In fact, Li Rui felt that it was normal for Wei Xuanning to do those elegant things, because he was an extremely elegant person, but it was rare for him to do dirty things.

I remember that when Miss Gao was a child, she was very naughty and insisted on roasting venison jerky. She even dragged Master Wei and the eldest master to roast it together. Master Wei had a rare good temper, but the eldest master was unwilling to eat the roasted venison jerky made by Miss Gao because he thought it was smelly and even said that the ash flew too high.

But he was cleaning up the dirt on the grandmother's body. If she still didn't understand, then she must be a fool.

Qingzhou made many reforms in the salt policy, which certainly helped some private salt dealers to mend their ways, but it also affected the interests of the big private salt dealers. Some of them stopped, while others wanted to commit a large number of crimes to shock the new and ignorant officials.

The reason these people make a living is because they have to be brave. They make money from the frying pan, so doesn't that mean they have to be brave?

Depending on who you are and who blocks someone else's path to wealth, you will be killed if you see a god or a Buddha.

The full moon came out, the New Year had passed, and Qingzhou City had returned to its former bustle. Yurong had become a little plumper. She was in bed every day. It was fine in the early days, but in the later days she drank nourishing medicines and ate all kinds of delicious food made by the chefs, which made her unable to resist.

As a result, last year's clothes no longer fit her and had to be altered, which made Yurong a little frustrated.

She couldn't help but said to Wei Xuanning coquettishly, "Mrs. Cao said tomorrow that she will invite me to taste tea after the New Year, but my clothes are too small, so you are not allowed to ask the kitchen staff to prepare delicious food for me tomorrow."

"Silly girl, I don't think you are fat. Here, I'll pick you up in one go." He immediately picked her up horizontally.

Yurong couldn't help laughing, but when he pretended to leave her, she couldn't help but hook his neck, and Wei Xuanning smiled.

"I'll come back to accompany you in the evening." Yurong knew how hard it was for him to endure these days.

Wei Xuanning nodded.

She went to Cao's house as she did before and ordered her followers to go there. After all, Yurong was not Wei Xuanning, and she had fewer guards when she went out. She felt that she was walking on the busy streets when she went to Cao's house.

I still didn’t expect those salt sellers to be so courageous!

Two of the maids who accompanied her out today stayed at home. After all, because there was a new little master in the family, Yurong and Wei Xuanning were unwilling to hire more servants, so there were not many people.

When Wei Xuanning sent Yurong to the carriage, he said, "Come back soon."

"It's so lively out front, we can't even squeeze in." Bitao said with a smile.

Yurong nodded, "Then let's wait. After all, we are going to Cao's house, not to someone else's."

When the traffic was cleared, the carriage started moving again. However, Yurong found that the driver seemed not to be the Second Steward. The Second Steward drove very steadily, which had never been done before. He drove like a desperado.

She had realized that something was wrong, but she couldn't make a fuss because who knew who was driving the car.

He quietly took out a purse from his body and threw it down while chatting and laughing with the maids as if nothing had happened.
