Chapter 205 Impure Thoughts of Doctor Ye
When Jiang's mother and the rest of the Jiang family returned to the front hall, they saw a table full of food, but no one intended to touch it.
The servants also occupied two tables nearby. Seeing that their master did not touch his chopsticks, they dared not touch them either. Such a situation had never occurred in the Jiang family before.
When Jiang's mother returned, she didn't really scold the three Jin siblings. How could she bear to yell at her beloved grandsons? Jiang Zhiqin, on the other hand, was severely scolded and is now behaving himself.
Feng Jingyuan was still very pleased that her son had finally come to his senses. His ability to accept Zhang Yumo showed that he had completely let go of Xu Ying'er.
For many years, she had been afraid that Xu Ying'er was a thorn in her eldest son's side. If he couldn't let go of her, he would live with guilt for the rest of his life and would never be happy.
Suddenly, tears welled up in Jiang's mother's eyes. Jiang Huai saw this and said, "Madam, why are you crying? Your children are watching."
"I'm happy." Jiang's mother wiped away her tears. "I'm truly happy today. Jin Yan is back safe and sound, and our family is reunited. We're just waiting for Ruan Ruan's husband..."
Knowing that Ruan Ruan was married to a prince of noble status, it was impossible for him to spend the Lantern Festival with the Jiang family. The reason Ruan Ruan was able to return this year was because Prince Heng was not in the capital.
Jiang Fenghua said, "Mother, don't be sad. From now on, your daughter will celebrate the Lantern Festival with you. Our family will always be together."
“And the baby in my aunt’s belly will also be with us. After they come out of my aunt’s belly, I will come to visit them every day and be with my grandmother, so that my grandmother will not be lonely.” Jin Mingxia is now seven years old, beautiful and sensible.
“Me too,” Jin Mingdong, the youngest, chimed in; he was only four years old.
Jin Mingchun, the second young master of the Jin family, is a boy who doesn't like to talk. He is only five years old, but he seems a bit old. "After Auntie has a baby, she will live with Uncle. We won't have a chance to see Auntie, and neither will Grandma. Don't overthink it."
The children in the Jin family are named according to the season of their birth. The second child was born in spring, so he is named Jin Mingchun. He is also the most sensible one. Although he went to the backyard with Jiang Zhiqin to eavesdrop, he did not say anything because his parents often whispered in the dark in the house.
Looking at her three adorable children, and thinking of the child in her womb, Jiang Fenghua hoped that she could raise them well in this life and make up for the regrets of her previous life.
At this moment, Jiang Jinyan came out holding Zhang Yumo's hand. They were very casual and greeted each other.
Jiang's father, of course, had no idea what had happened in the backyard. He said in a deep voice, "Be nicer to your wife. A man should act like a man. What kind of skill is it to bully a woman? No matter how many books a person reads, if he doesn't have good character, he might as well be a pig or a dog."
Jiang Jinyan also pretended to be honest and respectfully said, "Yes, Father is right."
"Sit down and eat. Don't listen to your father's nonsense. He just likes to act like a teacher. This isn't a school. But what your father says is right. Jin Yan should treat Yu Mo well in the future and give our family a few grandchildren soon. That would be even better." Although Jiang's mother was embarrassed, it was only natural for husband and wife to be affectionate. She pretended that nothing had happened.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yumo didn't even dare to raise her head, overwhelmed with shame.
Jiang Jinyan sat down next to Zhang Yumo and served her some food. He didn't know what she liked to eat, but he thought it tasted pretty good. At that moment, he realized that he didn't understand Zhang Yumo at all. It seemed that he hadn't cared about her enough.
He pretended not to understand anything and quickly changed the subject, "After we eat, let's go to the street to admire the lanterns!"
Upon hearing about going to the streets, Jiang Zhiqin took the lead and happily exclaimed, "Great!"
The younger children were also very excited, saying, "We want to go too! I want to go with my uncle!"
After dinner, Jiang Fenghua didn't go out to join the fun. She stayed at home with her parents. The three little Jin children were very excited to go out, so Jiang Rumeng and her husband had no choice but to go along.
Zhang Yumo asked again and again, "Third Sister, are you really not coming with us?"
Jiang Fenghua said, "I won't disturb you and my brother's lovey-dovey time. You two go ahead!"
Zhang Yumo said, "I know, Third Sister wants to wait for His Highness Prince Heng to return so she can go with him."
Jiang Fenghua hadn't really thought about this. She felt it was inconvenient to go out because of her big belly, so she deliberately said shyly, "Yes, you are all in pairs. I'm all alone and I'm very envious. When the prince comes back, I want to go shopping and boating on the lake with him alone and I'll be envious of you."
“We’re leaving. When we come back, just bring a lantern for Third Sister. She’s never liked going out to join in the fun since she was little.” Jiang Jinyan didn’t expose her. He took the cloak, put it on Zhang Yumo, and led her out of the Jiang residence.
Jiang's mother also took the cloak and put it on her daughter. Her third daughter had been very sensible and considerate since she was a child.

Meanwhile, outside the camp, it was bustling with activity. Because it was the Lantern Festival, the food was more plentiful than usual, and everyone was very happy. Xie Shang heard the commotion outside and got up from his bed. He stretched his muscles and bones, and his injuries had almost recovered.
Just then, Ye Susu, dressed as a physician, came in carrying a food box. Seeing that he had gotten out of bed, she quickly put down the food box and asked with concern, "Why did Your Highness get out of bed? Be careful of your wound."
Xie Shang said, "I'm almost fully recovered. It's all thanks to Physician Ye's care during this time that I recovered so quickly."
"These are all things I should do. After all, I am now a female physician recruited by the imperial court, and taking care of the prince is my duty." Ye Susu smiled and helped him sit down, then laid out the food from the food box.
At this moment, Lin Feng brought in some wine. Seeing that Ye Susu was also there, he bowed and said, "Your Highness, the wine you requested has been brought."
"Give it to me!" Xie Shang took the wine and was about to pour it into his glass.
When Ye Susu saw that he was about to drink, she quickly stopped him, saying, "Your Highness has not fully recovered and cannot drink alcohol."
She snatched it and it landed perfectly in Xie Shang's hand. Xie Shang glanced at her; her face was delicate and elegant, and her eyebrows and eyes were even more beautiful.
Seeing her rudeness, Ye Susu quickly released her hand, her face flushed with embarrassment, and said softly, "Susu was trying to stop the prince from drinking, it was just a moment of panic."
"Today is the Lantern Festival, everyone is happy, and I am happy too. A little drink won't hurt," Xie Shang said calmly. "Would Physician Ye like to have a drink with me?"
Ye Susu feigned reluctance, saying, "Susu is not good at drinking."
"Then I'll just have a small drink and won't force you, Physician Ye." Xie Shang didn't insist, because he wasn't a big drinker and didn't have the habit of urging women to drink.
Ye Susu was slightly taken aback upon seeing this, and secretly regretted why she had declined.
She remained calm and collected, having come to the border specifically to see Prince Heng.
She had only just managed to get a chance to meet Prince Heng, who was wounded on the battlefield. She went to great lengths to get close to Lin Feng and convince people that she had no ulterior motives so that she could take care of Prince Heng.
