"Just keep it in mind. As for the matter of Sui'an City, don't worry, I will handle it!"
Du Jingyi's words were like a reassurance.
Xing Zhao certainly knew her skills and abilities, so he was completely at ease.
"Xia Meng will be lonely when you leave. I will invite her and my aunt to come over and play often. I will definitely not let her feel wronged."
"I'm sorry to have worried you, but this time, I won't bother you to take care of Madam. I want to take her to Wangzhou with me!"
Du Jingyi was surprised at his words and asked.
"Going to Wangzhou? What to do?"
"Become a military doctor. With such a good skill, why stay at home? Father and mother also agree, so we will leave together when the time comes."
"But isn't she good at treating women and children?"
Hearing this, Xing Zhaocai smiled and then revealed Xia Meng's real intention of accompanying him.
"Madam wanted to compile a medical book, but she felt that she had not read enough. Wangzhou is famous for its abundant medicinal herbs, and there must be many doctors among the people, so she went there to take a look. She did not live with us in Huben Army, but found a small town in Wangzhou to live. She will be back in about one or two years."
"Xia Meng is really the type who can leave at any time. Don't you two plan to have a child?"
Even if Xia Meng went with him, it was not certain that she would be able to spend more time with Xing Zhao, so Du Jingyi had this question.
"At my age, if you think about it, I'm afraid I'll be qualified to be a grandfather in two years, so I don't care whether I have children or not. I think my wife also thinks the same way. So just go with the flow. If it comes, we'll take it. If not, that's fine. We can find a suitable heir to adopt when the time comes. As for my parents, they know our personalities, so they're not in a hurry to urge us. We'll talk about it when they really urge us."
"You are quite frank."
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, cousin, but I've been forced to marry for more than ten years. Now I have plenty of ways to deal with this."
Xing Zhao smiled so brightly that for a moment Du Jingyi felt that his abilities and open-minded character were indeed a perfect match for Xia Meng.
Therefore, their marriage was truly destined by heaven, and there was no need to persuade them any further.
A few days later, Xing Zhao left Sui'an City and headed straight for Wangzhou.
Xia Meng was also traveling with them. Not many people knew about her departure. After all, the young lady of the Xing family had been like a transparent person from the past to the present, so no one cared whether she was there or not.
A few days after they left, the princes and sons of the royal family returned to their own fiefdoms.
This trip lasted three or two months. Some people still lived in a muddle-headed way as before, but some were reborn and were about to accomplish other great things.
In the blink of an eye, spring buds climbed up the branches, the heat wave brought cool breeze, the autumn rain fell to the ground, and the winter snow blew through the streets and alleys of Sui'an City, in a hurry, year after year.
It was the early summer of the seventh year of Hongyuan when the crabapple blossoms in Xitang Courtyard were in full bloom again. Du Jingyi sat in the pavilion and watched his sons still practicing kung fu move by move, but things were completely different now.
Especially the leader, Tai Ge'er, who is about to turn ten years old. He is as tall as Du Jingyi. Although he still looks a little childish, he already has the heroic spirit of a young boy.
Although Du Jingyi had never seen the old Marshal Gu who had passed away many years ago, like his aunt, they would sigh every time they saw him, as if he was the reincarnation of his father-in-law!
Therefore, through Tai Ge'er, Du Jingyi could also understand why the glory of the Gu family in the past collapsed overnight after the death of Marshal Gu.
Among the other children, the ones who practiced boxing most seriously were Wen Ge'er and Zhong Ge'er. They were also stronger and more sturdy than the other children, so it was not difficult for them to practice.
As for Congge'er and Mingge'er, they focus on strengthening their bodies and will not practice overly complicated moves.
"Auntie, have some tea."
Du Jingyi saw Jin'er from the side, she has grown into a beautiful young lady now.
The wind of Sui'an City and the water of Jinling City have shaped her into a person that is both dashing and elegant. She is a lovely beauty no matter how you look at her.
"Okay, Jin'er's tea is my aunt's favorite."
After Du Jingyi finished speaking, he took a sip and found that the tea aroma was strong and the taste was lingering.
The eldest aunt and the second aunt who were sitting next to Jin'er were also sighing with emotion. They had lived in Sui'an City for more than two years since the year before last. They thought they would miss Jinling City very much, but unexpectedly they felt more and more comfortable here.
But there were also important matters to be done in Jinling City, so in the middle of last year, Gu Xiaochun, Gu Xiaoyun and their wife, as well as sister-in-law Chen Yinhua, returned to Jinling, taking the young babies with them. As for Jin'er and Zhong'er, they stayed in Sui'an City.
With one daughter and five young boys in the family, the general's mansion was always bustling with activity.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Du Jingyi put down the teacup and then spoke to the two aunts.
"I plan to go to my aunt's house this afternoon to see Xia Meng and take a look at her body. She is already seven months old now, so it's best to give birth during the hottest time of the year."
"Hahaha, don't worry. Yun Qing has almost bought out all the ice shops in Sui'an City these days. He is preparing for them and their child. This is Xing Zhao's first child. The servants in their family dare not even breathe, for fear of scaring the unborn child."
Aunt Xing asked someone to check and said that Xia Meng was pregnant with a boy.
Therefore, the people in the third branch of the Xing family were so excited that they didn't know what to say. After more than 30 years, their house finally had a newborn baby. Although other families had grandchildren, this was the first child in their house.
"That's right. Last time I went there, I just sneezed accidentally. Yun Qing stared at me with his eyes wide open, wishing he could chase me away immediately. It really pissed me off!"
It was a rare occasion for Second Aunt to make a joke, so when Du Jingyi heard this, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and laughed secretly.
Jin'er acted quite calm. The only thing she felt a little regretful about was that her cousin was going to give birth to a little brother, which meant that she would have less time to study with her.
Du Jingyi noticed that she was a little disappointed, so he touched her head and explained.
"Your cousin aunt told me that you should learn everything she taught you these days. She will continue to teach you after she is out of confinement. But this time you may see something very magical, so be prepared."
Jin'er knew what the magical thing Du Jingyi was talking about was. It was the medicine box that her cousin carried with her. However, she had never seen her cousin open it, so she had no idea what was inside.
"Really?" (End of this chapter)
