"Mom?" He turned his head.
Xia Zhixian frowned, "Ling'er will be in confinement from now on, so you should move to the side hall to sleep."
When Zhou Jingan heard that he and Jiang Ling were going to be separated, he was not happy and whispered, "No, I have to stay with her."
Xia Zhixian was furious. "You're not in confinement, so you can't help. You're disturbing Ling'er's rest."
He frowned, "I won't disturb her. I just want to watch her."
Xia Zhixian couldn't convince him, and was just about to ask Ye Song and Ye Bai to move his things directly to the side hall when Jiang Ling's voice came from the inner room.
Zhou Jing'an turned around and strode in, "Mom, Ling'er is calling me."
She had no choice but to sigh softly and turn around to ask Zizhen and the others to bring lunch over.
Her personal maid Juhua came in to report that there were guests visiting, so Xia Zhixian hurried to the front yard.
Jiang Ling finally felt rested after lunch. Zhou Jing'an ate with her, then put down his chopsticks when he saw she was full.
When she heard that the child was asleep, she wanted to go to the east wing to check. Zhou Jing'an stopped her from moving and went to pick up the child himself.
It happened that the golden flowers came to visit her, and they gathered around her and the children to chat.
Most of them were unmarried girls. They were extremely curious about the child, but they didn't dare to do anything rashly when they saw his cute face. After hearing Zhou Huanan and Su Wantang's story about the dangerous incident, they were filled with fear and distress, and kept worrying about her health.
While the girls were talking, Zhou Jing'an consciously left and washed up. Only then did he have time to handle his official business, so he hurried to Xibaoxuan.
When the good news reached Wuliu Street, He Zui and Wan Ran were delighted and wanted to go see Jiang Ling and the child, but they were afraid of being too abrupt, so they waited for her to rest for two days and wait until the wave of congratulations from the capital had passed before going to see her.
Zhou Jing'an finished his business and was about to return to Qiyun Pavilion when officials and close friends he was familiar with came to congratulate him. He turned around and went to the front yard and asked Ye Song to go back and ask about Jiang Ling's condition.
After seeing off the guests, the sun was already setting. Zhou Jing'an pinched his brows tiredly and walked towards Qiyun Pavilion.
Zhou Ke and Zhou Huaixin were also busy for a while. After seeing their friends out of the house, they turned around and went to see the children.
I happened to run into Jiang Lan and Xia Zhixian, who had just seen off a group of ladies. Although they looked tired, their faces were full of joy.
After the four of them arrived at Qiyun Pavilion, they happened to hear Zhou Jing'an coldly asking Ye Song and Ye Bai to move the things back in the outer room of the main hall.
Jiang Lan stepped in first, "What happened?"
Ye Song and Ye Bai quickly hid over and reported, "Madam asked us to move the young master's belongings to the side hall, but he refused."
They were also having a headache. They dared not disobey the lady's orders, but the young man with a cold face was really scary.
Xia Zhixian walked over and said, "Stop making trouble and move to the side hall. Don't disturb Ling'er's rest."
Looking at Zhou Jing'an's stubborn face, Zhou Ke snorted and laughed, "Why are you so stubborn about these things? A woman is in confinement after childbirth, don't make things more complicated, or you'll make her suffer from chronic illness."
As soon as Zhou Ke spoke, Zhou Jing'an's arrogance subsided a little, but when he heard that it would harm Jiang Ling, he instantly became nervous.
As soon as Doctor Lin finished taking the patient's pulse, Zhou Jing'an pulled him aside and asked him if it was true.
He glanced at Zhou Ke's half-smile, then turned around and replied calmly, "That's true. Women shouldn't be careless during confinement. If they don't take good care of themselves, they'll probably be sick for the rest of their lives."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jing'an was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He no longer felt awkward and hurriedly asked Ye Song and Ye Bai to continue moving the things to the side hall. He also repeatedly admitted his mistakes and said that he was reckless.
Jiang Lan went to the inner room to check on Jiang Ling. When he came out, he overheard it. He and Xia Zhixian almost laughed out loud. They glanced at him and turned to look at the child.
