320. Chapter 320: A Family (Additional Update for National Day)



Unexpectedly, just as Cherry was about to open the door, she heard hurried footsteps.

“Ahhh…”

The gurgling sound belonged to Tai Ge'er, so when he opened the door, he saw his own general holding Tai Ge'er, who was dressed in furry clothes, in his arms.

Shang Ji wore a silver cloak, while Tai Ge'er wore a red jacket with round patterns and a cute felt hat, which made his little face look chubby.

Now he is almost eight months old and can be held in my arms, so he looks full of energy.

The father and son were already very similar, and now they looked even more alike.

Cherry was stunned for a moment, then immediately greeted and spoke.

"I greet the general and the young master."

"Is the young lady awake?"

"I'm awake. I just had half a bowl of porridge. I was just about to ask the young master to come over."

Shang Ji nodded, then carried the child into the room.

Mrs. Xing had specially ordered the construction of the greenhouse after she came back. Unexpectedly, it would actually come in handy. As soon as you enter the room, the coldness dissipates at the door, and when you enter the house again, it is much warmer.

When Du Jingyi saw the father and son coming in, he felt much more relaxed.

"Brother Tai..."

Her shout made Tai Ge'er look over immediately. He stretched out his hands for a hug, which made Du Jingyi's tears sore.

But Shang Ji pulled Tai Ge'er and spoke in his ear.

"Be gentle, your mother is still ill."

Tai Ge'er didn't quite understand what was said, but he could feel that his mother seemed different from before. So, he, who was originally active and naughty, became a lot quieter after getting close to Du Jingyi.

The little hand touched Du Jingyi's face and let out some giggles, which instantly made the originally dull atmosphere warm.

"Brother Tai, Brother Tai..."

Du Jingyi wanted to hug the child, but her current health did not allow it, so Shang Ji had to hold the child in his arms and gently hold her hand.

Seeing this, Cherry tiptoed out, leaving the three of them some space.

Shang Ji sighed slightly and said.

"It frightened me."

Du Jingyi also knew that this was like a trip to the gates of hell. Fortunately, with the blessing of God, she and her child were safe, so she would naturally not act up again.

So I changed the subject and asked a question.

"General, have you arranged everything for the ancestor worship?"

"Well, it's almost time. It's scheduled for six days later. You should just stay in bed and recuperate. Yun Zhan and I will go. It will take at least half a day. Your body can't stand it."

This was the first time that Du Jingyi had followed Shang Ji back to worship his ancestors, so naturally he wanted to attend.

But the reality did not allow it, and she would not hurt herself for this, so she nodded and agreed.

Then he took his son Taiger's hand and gave him instructions.

"From now on, our brother Tai will be the grandfather of the Gu family. He must grow up quickly to take care of the great-grandmother and the grandmothers. Do you understand?"

How could a little kid understand all this? He just smiled happily as always. Whenever Du Jingyi saw this, no matter how uncomfortable or responsible he felt, he felt that everything became much simpler and more comfortable.

But Shang Ji was still worried about another thing.

Originally they had planned to leave in early February next year, but right now Du Jingyi couldn't move at all, which meant Tai Ge'er had to stay too.

When he came, he was with his whole family, but when he left, he was alone. It made him feel lonely.

But now he didn't want to mention this matter in a way that would spoil his wife's mood and make her feel uncomfortable. If it affected her recovery, wouldn't he be even more sad?

So, I just talked to Du Jingyi about some other happy things.

"Because you were ill, my aunt didn't hold a welcoming party. She said we would do it after you get better. We still have some old friends in Jinling City, and they are all looking forward to meeting you and Brother Tai."

Shang Ji got married in Sui'an City.

He hurried to Cezhou that night and was away for three years.

Therefore, the visit to visit the grandmother's relatives, which was originally supposed to take the new daughter-in-law, was delayed until now, so everyone is looking forward to it.

Seeing this, Du Jingyi deliberately teased him.

"Wouldn't that disappoint these old friends? They might be wondering why the general found such a weak wife. She's only a little girl, but she's already so sick."

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

"Then Madam, you must take good care of your health. You must show them how you have brought prosperity to the Gu family. Since you came into the mansion, the sufferings of the Gu family have been alleviated a lot."

What Shang Ji said was absolutely true.

Because Du Jingyi and Tai Ge'er, mother and son, brought new hope to the Gu family. Before that, this place was as quiet as a big ice cellar.

Now with her, Tai Ge'er, and the baby in her belly, the ice cellar has slowly melted, and is now blooming with the warmth of spring. Even though it is already the coldest time of the year, everyone's heart is warm.

After hearing this, Du Jingyi was also moved.

The Gu family's care for her, from old lady Gu on down, was careful and serious.

Take the furnishings of Qiwu Courtyard for example. They are roughly the same as those in Xitang Courtyard, not in terms of the style of the furnishings, but in terms of the relaxed feeling.

Especially the red sandalwood trees in the yard outside the window made her feel comfortable looking at them while she was recuperating from her illness, even if she couldn't leave the yard.

All of this was made possible by the hard work of his aunts, so Du Jingyi was grateful.

It has been a long time since the family of three sat down and had a good conversation like this.

During the process, Cherry only came in to deliver medicine and then left.

I have to say that Dr. Tan is very good at treating patients and his medicine is simple.

Pills are much easier to take than bowls of medicinal soup, so Du Jingyi has no resistance at all.

Especially when she thought about how the pill helped her keep the baby in her belly, she was even more grateful to Dr. Tan, and also to Dong Niang who came to see her two or three times a day for consultation.

After talking for about an hour, Du Jingyi's medicine began to take effect.

He was so exhausted that Shang Ji spoke up.

"I'll send Taige'er to my grandmother first, and then I'll be back to accompany you. Just sleep well, okay?"

Du Jingyi held his son's hand, feeling reluctant to let him go.

But she also knew that only by recovering from her illness early could she spend more time with her son, so she had no choice but to nod and agree.

Tai Ge'er was carried away obediently by his father, and not long after the father and son left, Du Jingyi fell asleep.

Cherry came in and stayed quietly in the room, doing some simple needlework in her hands, accompanying her young lady.
