After they chatted for two hours, Qiu Jingfan left with Qiu Qiyi and Kui Sihu.
Li Xiaochen also asked people to prepare and set out to return to Xia Kingdom.
But Bai Teng did not go back. Li Xiaochen and Qiu Jingfan had agreed that Bai Teng would stay in Zhao State to do his business, but he could not interfere in political affairs.
All the personnel in the Zhao court and palace must be withdrawn.
Li Xiaochen agreed and treated it as a business deal to Zhao State. Now as long as Qiu Jingfan did not take action against their Xia State, it would be fine to keep the people or not.
Besides, Xinxin still has some international trade matters to discuss, so leaving Bai Teng in Zhao State will make it easier for her to do things in the future.
So when they came, they only brought about 200 people, but when they left, they left with more than 100 people.
Qiu Jingfan's face turned pale. He didn't even know that Li Xiaochen had arranged so many spies in his country!
…
Lin Mansion in the capital of Xia Kingdom!
"Qingxue, why are you here? You're carrying so many things. Just let others carry them. Don't get tired. Come here and sit down!"
Zhao Hanya looked at her daughter-in-law who came over with a basket of things, and hurriedly took it, then pulled her to sit, and reminded her worriedly.
"Mother, I'm fine. It's only been two months. I'm not that squeamish! I'm just bored. I was thinking that the weather will get warmer soon, and my daughter-in-law wants to make some clothes for my husband."
Ji Qingxue followed Zhao Hanya's hand, sat next to Zhao Hanya, and spoke softly.
A few days ago, she suddenly felt dizzy, and her mother-in-law was worried, so she asked a doctor to come in. After the doctor's diagnosis, he said that she was two months pregnant. Her mother-in-law was very happy and didn't let her do anything in the past two days, and she didn't have to pay her respects every day.
She was really bored today, so she went to the storeroom to choose a piece of cloth, wanting to discuss a clothing style with her mother-in-law so that she could make two pieces of clothes for her husband.
"He's a man, how could he have no clothes to wear? Besides, he's been in the camp all year round, and he wears the same clothes. You can't wear them many times. You are the most important in our family now. You are pregnant with our Lin family's first child, so you have to take care of it!"
Zhao Hanya was happy from the bottom of her heart. She was going to have a grandson, the eldest grandson in their family. How could she not be happy?
"놆, my daughter-in-law understands!"
Ji Qingxue was deeply moved when she heard her mother-in-law's words. She knew that she had married into a good family and that she was luckier than her two sisters.
"Oh! I don't know how Xinxin is doing. She has been away for more than a month and I don't know when she will come back."
As Zhao Hanya was talking, she thought of her precious daughter who was always restless. She sighed and murmured worriedly.
"Mother, Xinxin will go out for a walk. She will be fine with the protection of the prince. Don't worry."
Ji Qingxue comforted softly.
She also liked her sister-in-law very much. She was kind and didn't have a spoiled temper. She was very comfortable with her.
However, after getting married, she also discovered something unusual about the Lin family.
Her mother-in-law, husband, and two brothers-in-law all obey her and take her affairs very seriously. Although she doesn't know why, she knows that her sister-in-law is an unshakable presence in this family.
"I hope so. That girl is restless. I'm afraid Xiaochen can't control her! This girl used to send me a letter to let me know she's safe, but now I haven't heard from her for half a month! I wonder what's wrong with her?"
Zhao Hanya frowned and scolded her daughter without any mercy, but her eyes were full of worry.
Ji Qingxue smiled secretly, but said nothing more. Her mother-in-law was scolding her daughter, and as the sister-in-law, she could not speak at this time.
I could only change the topic and talk about clothing styles.
"This style is better than the one in Cui Ya Pavilion. They also sell men's clothes there. I'll take you there sometime."
Zhao Hanya talked to Qingxue about several styles, but she was not very satisfied with any of them, so she pulled her aside and talked.
"Great! I heard that those designs were all drawn by Xinxin. Xinxin has a really smart brain!"
Ji Qingxue nodded, thought of her sister-in-law, and said with a smile.
"That girl has a lot of tricks!"
Zhao Hanya was quite happy to hear people praising her daughter, and she also joked with a smile.
At this time Lin Shixiao walked in and took out a letter.
"Mother, there is news about my sister. This is the letter I just received. It was sent by the prince's people! Can you take a look?"
After handing the letter to Zhao Hanya, he then greeted Ji Qingxue who was standing beside him:
"Sister-in-law!"
"Well, uncle, are you tired? Have a drink of water!"
Seeing that her uncle was out of breath, Ji Qingxue knew that he must have run back after getting the letter, so she stood up and poured him a cup of tea for him to drink.
Lin Shixiao was indeed thirsty, so he picked up the cup of water and took several gulps.
As soon as he received the letter, he asked for leave and rushed home. He knew his mother was worried about his sister. In the past half month, his sister had not replied to his letter, and he was always worried about her every day when he came home.
His elder brother and elder brother were smart. One hid in the military camp and came back once every half a month, and the other went directly to the south to do business, leaving him alone at home to be nagged by his mother.
Zhao Hanya took the letter, opened it nervously, and read it carefully. After reading it, she was very excited. She looked at Lao Er, her eyes were red with excitement, and she said:
"Your sister is coming back, coming back, and she's pregnant for over a month. Am I going to be a grandmother?"
"Really? That's great! I'm going to be an uncle? Haha! My sister is really amazing!"
When Lin Shixiao heard the news, his stern face softened and his eyes were filled with smiles.
"She's pretty amazing. Now your elder brother has a child, and your younger sister has a child too, but you and Shao Yang are still single. When are you going to get married? I've shown you so many things, why can't you get married?"
Zhao Hanya's emotions come and go quickly. When it comes to getting married, she gets really angry. The second brother ran away the next day after she mentioned that she wanted to find him a date, under the pretext of doing business. He hasn't been back for almost a month.
Old man, she had previously picked out for him the daughter of the Prime Minister's family, Xue Yueying, who was only ten years old, and the Prime Minister's wife openly said that she was very optimistic about Shi Xiao.
But within two days, the boy directly rejected her, and she was so angry that she stayed in bed at home for two days.
Later she found out that in order to avoid Lin Xiong'an's scheme, her son had directly spread rumors to her, saying that he was inhumane and would not be able to have children in the future.
My son has a bad reputation in society now, and many families don't want their daughters to marry him.
The Prime Minister's family also privately looked for his son.
What else did Zhao Hanya not understand? This was because his son had a bad reputation in front of him, and he was afraid that his daughter would suffer if she married Shixiao, so the Prime Minister's family disagreed, but he did not take the initiative to say it, so he went to his son privately to make him back out.
After Shixiao rejected their proposal, they spread the word a few days later that their young lady had found a husband, thus putting an end to the Lin family's thoughts.
This not only saved Xue Yueying's reputation, but also showed that they were the best people in the family, without any disdain for Shi Xiao, and all the good reputation was taken away by them.
This incident made Zhao Hanya so angry that she stayed in bed for two days. Later, she stopped arranging Shixiao's marriage and let things take their own course. Whenever 녦놆 talked about this incident, she got furious!
