The carriage moved slowly all the way from Miaojiang to Jinling. It was already the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.
The city of Jinling was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns everywhere, creating a prosperous scene.
Qin Yanning was holding her breath all the way, and when she finally arrived, she couldn't help but tilt her head to look out the window.
The cold air blowing in her face made her shiver. The air was mixed with the sweet smell of sugar-roasted chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes.
Qin Yanning retracted her head, touched her belly, and said with a smile, "Baby wants to eat chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes. Mommy will ask Daddy to buy them."
After saying that, Qin Yanning looked at Meng Changyun, blinking his almond-shaped eyes and waiting for his answer.
Meng Changyun patted Qin Yanning's hand helplessly and said, "I'll go buy it right away."
His wife had no idea how many things he had done under the pretext of the baby in her belly.
From seafood from the East China Sea to wild delicacies from the Northern Territory, he had no idea how many times he had racked his brains to buy things from the Demon Sect in the past six months.
But Meng Changyun really fell for this trick. After all, this was the girl he had begged and cried to marry. What else could he do if he didn't spoil her?
Soon, Meng Changyun got on the carriage holding a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts.
Qin Yanning took the chestnuts from Meng Changyun's hand with a smile and was about to peel them himself when he saw Meng Changyun take out a roasted sweet potato from his arms.
Meng Changyun carefully tore off the skin of the roasted sweet potato, blew on it, and handed it to Qin Yanning when he felt that the temperature was not too hot.
"Eat this first. I'll peel the chestnuts for you."
Seeing this, Qin Yanning kissed Meng Changyun sweetly on the face before taking the sweet potato from his hand.
Meng Changyun has become thick-skinned now, and Qin Yanning's sudden attack did not make him blush at all.
Qin Yanning lay in the carriage, eating sweet roasted sweet potatoes in small bites, and Meng Changyun fed her a soft and sticky chestnut from time to time. She just felt that life was indeed wonderful.
The coachmen have long been accustomed to the affection between their young lady and her son-in-law, but privately they still sigh that their son-in-law is really amazing.
The carriage stopped at the villa where Mingjian Pavilion used to be, and Meng Changyun carefully helped Qin Yanning get off the carriage.
Yunyun had been waiting in the yard for a long time. When Qin Yanning and Meng Changyun got married, she did not attend their wedding because she took fake pregnancy pills.
Later, after Qin Yanning was diagnosed with pregnancy, she made a lot of small clothes for the child and asked someone to bring them to Qin Yanning.
Qin Yanning naturally had a good impression of this gentle and tough girl.
Seeing Qin Yanning, Yunyun couldn't help but curl her lips. "You are so heavy now, and you came all the way here for such a beast. It must be hard for you."
Qin Yanning touched her belly. In fact, she was less than five months pregnant. Her belly looked bigger than that of an ordinary person because of the large number of children.
In comparison, Yunyun looked lighter after taking the fake pregnancy pills.
Qin Yanning knew that the fake pregnancy pills would not cause any discomfort to Yunyun, so she let Yunyun help her into the house.
Meng Changyun had a face full of resentment, but he dared not speak out.
Qin Yanning sat down on the couch and asked, "How is Jiang Lingfeng now?"
Yunyun sneered, "What else can I do? This fake child and I are just his fig leaves. He claims to have endured humiliation for us."
"I see he has no intention of enduring humiliation when serving others."
"After all, he's pretty good-looking, and his business is doing well."
Hearing this, Qin Yanning also laughed.
According to the original owner's memory, it is not surprising that Jiang Lingfeng would behave like this.
Yunyun continued, "However, he really hoped that this fake child would be born to inherit his legacy. He even asked someone in the brothel for the secret recipe for having a son."
Qin Yanning clicked his tongue. Not to mention that the baby in Yunyun's belly was a fake one, Jiang Lingfeng at least had some knowledge of medicine. The child was already in her belly, so could the baby still change its gender?
Even the system props don’t have such a big face.
Qin Yanning looked at Yunyun and saw the same disdain on her face as his.
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, a good day for family reunion." Qin Yanning said softly after taking a sip of the warm milk handed to him by Meng Changyun.
Yunyun was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood what Qin Yanning meant.
The day when thousands of families reunite is the perfect day for Jiang Lingfeng's dreams to be shattered, leaving him completely alone.
Meng Changyun shook Qin Yanning's hand with some displeasure, "You're not going to spend the New Year with me, but are going to deal with that beast?"
Qin Yanning knew that her husband was very jealous, so she stretched out her finger and tickled Meng Changyun's palm. "Then I'll take you with me to see Jiang Lingfeng off?"
Meng Changyun felt the itch in his palm and knew that he couldn't do anything to his wife. But after all, there was an outsider like Yunyun. He said coldly, "That's better."
Yunyun briefly told Qin Yanning about recent events and then tactfully left.
Qin Yanning glanced at Meng Changyun at this moment and asked, "Is this almost right?"
Hearing her strange tone, Meng Changyun quickly apologized, "There are other people around here, so just give me some face, Ningning."
Meng Changyun had already said that, so Qin Yanning didn't argue with him and gently twisted his ear. "So you mean to say that I'm a shrew?"
"I dare not, I dare not." Meng Changyun explained quickly.
…
Because of the arrival of Qin Yanning and Meng Changyun, Yunyun couldn't sleep well that night.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she could think of what happened to her during the time she was with Jiang Lingfeng. He never treated her as a human being.
Because she was trained by the Hengdao Sect and did not initially practice the secret techniques of the Mingjian Pavilion, Jiang Lingfeng disliked the fact that she could bring him too little benefit and often took pleasure in torturing her.
In the darkness of the night, Yunyun touched the scar on her thigh caused by Jiang Lingfeng's candle burn, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Every time Jiang Lingfeng would use these scars to remind her how lowly she was.
Although Jiang Lingfeng has been overthrown now, the memory of humiliation cannot be erased from her mind.
She didn't know how to get rid of it all, so after her brother found her, she refused to go home with him.
Because she was afraid, she was afraid that her blood relatives would despise her experience.
So she forced herself not to crave the warmth brought by family affection. As long as she didn't have any expectations, she would never be disappointed.
Tomorrow is the day Jiang Lingfeng will die. Thinking of this, Yunyun felt much happier.
Once Jiang Lingfeng dies tomorrow, the first half of her painful life will come to an end. She wants to go to a place where no one knows her and start a new life of her own.
She had so many beautiful visions for the future, and the bitterness in her heart was diluted a lot when she thought of them.
However, Yunyun knew that she actually wanted to go back to see her parents.
She was only three years old when she was abducted, and she only remembers one thing about her family.
That is, Daddy would carry her on his shoulders and let her reach the new flowers on the tree.
In addition to Yunyun, Qin Yanning also did not sleep well that night.
