Chapter 288: Departure



Gu Yunzhan was a child who could sleep very well. He ate well and was very sleepy, so he grew up fast. Now he looked like a five or six-month-old baby, with a chubby head and strong body, which made people very happy at first sight.

"Grandma also said that last time it rained and thundered, the noise was so loud that it scared my grandson's wife awake, but he was sleeping soundly. I don't know if this child is the reincarnation of the God of Sleep, but he can sleep better."

"He can sleep well, eat well, and be well taken care of. How many families out there would like to have such a good child? You, just be happy."

Fourth aunt added that, although that was the case, she always came to Xitang Courtyard early to wait.

If I don’t hug my baby three or four times a day, it feels like I haven’t accomplished my mission.

As they were talking, they saw wet nurse Fu coming over with the child in her arms.

As soon as she saw Tai Ge'er, Mrs. Gu's eyes were no longer blurry and her legs no longer hurt. She immediately stood up and walked over. When she saw the child's chubby hands and feet, she smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits.

He found the nearest seat and sat down, then took Tai Ge'er from wet nurse Fu.

"I can never get enough of looking at him. Our Taige is such a lovely child. Great-grandmother, can you see if he has gained some weight?"

Tai Ge'er had just eaten and slept enough, and his butt was clean, so he was feeling very comfortable. When he saw that everyone was familiar to him, he naturally chuckled for fun to see.

"This child is really strange. He cries less and laughs more. I have hardly ever heard him cry or make a fuss."

Sister-in-law Liu stood by and teased while speaking.

"He is very similar to his father in this respect. I remember that when Shao Yu first came to the Gu family, he was only two years old. He was also a person who loved to laugh and not cry. He was always cheerful when he met anyone, so the master especially liked to bring him around at that time."

Old Madam Gu was explaining, and Brother Tai in front of her seemed to understand, and also made sounds like “uh…uh…”

"Look at our clever child Yun Zhan. He wants to learn to speak at such a young age. He will surely be able to speak fluently in the future!"

Du Jingyi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard the praise from his fourth aunt.

"Fourth aunt, please stop saying that. Ever since the baby was born, you have praised him to the skies, saying he is great in every way and smart in every way. How can you tell from this when the baby is only a little kid?"

"Don't worry about it. I can see it clearly anyway. Besides, I'm just taking precautions for you. When Yun Zhan returns to Jinling City, you'll see. I'm afraid the three sisters-in-law will be even more exaggerated than me."

Especially the eldest lady of the Gu family, she was the one who had the best chance to have a grandson, but it was a pity that God played a trick on her and gave her such a good child today. She will definitely be very happy when she sees him.

"Fourth aunt, please don't spoil my son anymore. When we return to Jinling City, Shao Yu will also give instructions to the other aunts."

As he was speaking, Shang Ji walked in from outside, walking like a dragon or a tiger, and his whole body was handsome despite his stiffness.

After becoming a father, he became more stable.

Therefore, he looked more like the head of the family than before. Therefore, when he entered the room, Mrs. Gu seemed to see the same look as when the old master entered the room before, and was stunned for a moment.

"The General is back."

"Um."

"Is everything going well?"

Shang Ji entered the palace this time because they were going to take Yun Zhan south to return home. They needed to report to His Majesty and make arrangements for the Tiger Guards before they could leave.

That's why Du Jingyi asked this question.

Shang Ji then nodded.

"Your Majesty has agreed to my request. We will leave at the end of October. It should be the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. We will go north after the New Year and Lantern Festival."

"We're leaving at the end of October, so that's about three months at most, which is plenty of time to pack."

The fourth aunt said this, and then as if she remembered something, she added a sentence.

"In the past three months, Lizhu has been able to handle things on her own. When we go south, we will assign some tasks to her and conduct some research while we're there."

Ever since it was decided last time to let Lizhu take charge of the female guard team, Fourth Aunt has been training her individually. This time it's not just martial arts training, but also a lot of overall planning matters have been arranged.

Although Lizhu was born a maid, she was literate and experienced because the Du family and Du Jingyi had never treated her badly, so it was not difficult to teach her.

That's why Fourth Aunt-in-law spoke in such an affirmative tone.

Hearing this, Du Jingyi and Yingtao behind her were also happy, and they looked at Lizhu with encouragement in their eyes.

"Then let us see what Lizhu is capable of."

Lizhu was not afraid when she heard this, and spoke loudly.

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

"Just wait and see, Madam. I will never embarrass Madam Four!"

Old Madam Gu liked the girl's cheerful and generous temper, so she said with a smile.

"As expected, a disciple looks like the person he taught! Look at this child, he looks about 50% like you when you were young!"

When Fourth Aunt heard this, a hint of pride appeared in her eyes.

Her trip to Sui'an City in the north was really worthwhile. Not only did it relax her, but she also gained a caring apprentice. It gave her something to do in her long life, and she didn't have to wait for the sunset and the moon to rise every day in boredom.

Du Jingyi saw it from the side, and exchanged glances with her husband Shang Ji. She noticed the change and happiness in her fourth aunt, which was a good thing.

However, the eldest sister-in-law Liu and the eighth sister Xue Niang were a little sad. The family had finally been so lively for a while, but it was about to end like this.

"It's only been three months since we've been together. It goes by so fast."

The fourth aunt patted her eldest sister-in-law Liu on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"When you are free, come and see us. You haven't been to Jinling City for many years, right? It has changed a lot."

The eldest sister-in-law Liu went to Jinling City once the year she got married to her husband, and has stayed in Sui'an City ever since. Now, after hearing what the fourth aunt said, she felt a little itchy.

"If Xueniang's wedding wasn't around the corner, I would really like to go with you guys. Isn't Ping'er also in Jinling City? I received a letter from him two days ago, saying that he was having a great time with his cousin Zhao."

Xueniang actually wanted to go, but she couldn't go out because she was about to get married.

It's not just her, it's the same for Silang of the Guo family, so Du Jingyi said something comforting.

"It's okay. When you get married, let Guo's son Silang take you south to meet your grandmother. Then your sister-in-law can go with you."

Her proposal comforted Xue Niang and her elder sister-in-law Liu a lot, and everyone talked and laughed and mentioned other things.
