Chapter 156 Returning to My Mother's Home

"Come on, take me to see it. Daddy and mommy actually waited until after the birth of the baby to tell me such good news! Don't they regard me as their daughter?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Cherry gave a bitter smile.

"Young Madam, you are being overly suspicious. You are pregnant and cannot stand the sight of blood. The Master and Madam are doing this for your own good."

"I know, I know. I just said one more word."

After saying that, Du Jingyi was about to walk out, but was stopped by Shang Ji.

She said with a puzzled look on her face.

"What are you doing, General? I'm going to see my sister and my newborn nephew."

"It's very cold outside. Your clothes are too thin. Change your clothes before going out. Remember to change your shoes too. Be careful not to get your shoes and socks wet."

While he was still giving orders, Cherry on the other side had already brought the clothes over.

She was given an extra rabbit fur jacket, suede shoes, and then wrapped tightly in a cloak.

Seeing that the whole person was buried, Shang Ji nodded with satisfaction, then took Du Jingyi's hand and walked out of the greenhouse.

"Come on, I'll take you there."

"General, you haven't had breakfast yet. How about I go by myself? It's easy to go back and forth by horse and carriage."

"It's just breakfast. It won't matter if you don't eat it."

Seeing his statement, Du Jingyi had no choice but to follow him.

Shang Ji felt that he had returned at the right time today. Otherwise, if his wife got the news and rushed to the Du family alone, he would be very worried.

Along the way, Du Jingyi felt so excited that time seemed to be extremely long. He couldn't help but lift the curtain to look outside several times.

Seeing that the speed was too slow, he immediately started to shout to the front, "Go faster."

Old Yao, who was driving, looked helpless.

The lady in the carriage shouted for faster speed, but the general outside the carriage gave her a cold face and told her to slow down.

He had been a rickshaw driver for so many years, but this was the first time he felt that this job was so difficult. For a moment, he even wanted to quit.

Fortunately, he managed to send his wife to the door of the Du family safely, sometimes slowly and sometimes quickly.

As soon as the carriage stopped, I saw the lady preparing to get off.

He quickly made way for me.

Shang Ji took two quick steps forward and picked up Du Jingyi, without letting go, and walked straight in.

Du Jingyi was very embarrassed, so he said with a red face.

"General, I am pregnant, not injured. Why did you bring me in?"

"It's snowing hard and I'm afraid the ground will be slippery. I'll put you down when we get to the gate of Mingse Courtyard."

"Instead of going to Mingse Courtyard, we have to go to Sister's Quxi Courtyard."

Shang Ji paused and thought about it. It was impossible for her to give birth to the child in her parents' yard, so he opened his mouth and spoke.

"Madam, please show me the way."

Seeing this, Du Jingyi chuckled. Just now, she thought her husband knew the way to go.

So he pointed to the path on the right, and Shang Ji changed direction.

Along the way, I naturally saw many servants and women of the Du family.

They were also surprised when they saw the son-in-law coming back carrying the second young lady.

But they didn't dare to say anything extra. They all got out of the way and lowered their heads, pretending not to see it.

After a while, the couple arrived at the gate of Quxiyuan.

Shang Ji found a dry place to put Du Jingyi down. Yingtao came forward to help her tidy up her clothes, and then the two of them hurried inside.

Before entering the main house, Du Jingyi heard a baby crying.

All of a sudden, tears welled up in her eyes.

Shang Ji frowned and looked at her. He wanted to wipe her tears, but Du Jingyi waved his hand and said.

"I'm fine. I'm happy. I'm happy."

"Um."

Shang Ji had never experienced the birth of a newborn, but he remembered that he had held his nephew in his arms after he was born, so the soft side of his heart was brought out by the baby's crying.

He held Du Jingyi's hand and kept the cold out of his palm.

He didn't speak until he reached the door.

"I'll wait for you in the corridor. Please go in and take a look."

Du Jingyi nodded. His elder sister had just given birth and it would definitely be difficult for her to see people now.

Shang Ji is a foreigner, so he still has to be careful.

"General, please don't stand in the courtyard. It's snowing. Go sit in the side room. I'll come out after I'm done."

"good."

After giving Shang Ji a soothing look, Du Jingyi turned around and pushed the door open.

The layout and furnishings of Quxi Courtyard were exactly the same as when her elder sister was at home, which reminded her of many things from the past.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

At that time, the two sisters were still unmarried, but now they are both mothers. It feels like a lifetime ago.

Hearing the movement at the door, the person who was originally standing in the dormitory came out.

At first glance, Du Jingyi saw his mother holding the child and playing with it. Next to her stood his elder sister's mother-in-law, He Lin, a slightly plump woman who looked very friendly.

Seeing Du Jingyi come in, Mrs. Du was a little surprised.

"Why are you here? You don't even care about your own health in this snowy day?!"

"Don't worry, mother. The general is outside. I heard that my sister gave birth to a fat nephew. I couldn't sit still, so I came to take a look."

Du Jingyi had already delivered the things prepared for his nephew these days.

The brocade quilt and small clothes that wrap the child now are embroidered by Lu Ju herself. Not only is the material good, but the embroidery is also beautiful.

When Du Jingyi approached, Yingtao quickly closed the door, fearing that the child would be cold.

"Meet Aunt He."

"Don't be polite, don't be polite, just take care of yourself."

"Um."

It is small and red, and it spits out bubbles from time to time.

She was crying loudly just now, but she stopped when she saw Du Jingyi approaching.

"Hey, why aren't you crying anymore? Are you behaving yourself now that you know I'm here?"

Du Jingyi asked jokingly, and Aunt He responded without hesitation.

"Who says it's not true? This kid must like you."

Who knew that the child started crying as soon as I finished speaking, without any hesitation, and even louder.

Du Jingyi snorted twice with a helpless look on his face.

"You little brat."

Mrs. Du smiled and called out to the wet nurse next to her when she saw this.

"Take him and see if he has peed or is he hungry?"

"Yes, ma'am."

The wet nurse was found by Mrs. Du a long time ago. She was a woman under 30 years old, with a gentle face and well-behaved.

When holding the child in his arms, Du Jingyi noticed the love in her eyes.

I felt a lot more relieved.

Du Jingyi asked only after the wet nurse took the child away.

"Where's my sister? I'll go see her."

"She's asleep inside. She hasn't woken up yet. Come back to Mingse Court with me. We'll disturb her if we talk here."

Du Jingxiang had just given birth, so she was naturally exhausted.
