The aunt smiled and then spoke.

"There's no need to deliberately publicize this matter. If they can see it, you can tell me. If they can't see it, that's fine. If everyone knows that you are pregnant, they will understand why you haven't shown up for so long after returning. It will also be more convenient for you to manage the entire Gu family in the future."

Nowadays, the affairs of the family are managed by the eldest aunt. Speaking like this, it is obvious that she is ready to hand over the affairs to Zhongde.

But Du Jingyi is not only new here, but she is also pregnant. She doesn't want to do so many tedious things. If she tires the child out, wouldn't it be a waste?

So I said to my aunt.

"I hope you will have mercy on me, Aunt. I am still strong enough to take care of the child, but I am afraid I will not have enough energy to manage the Gu family. I hope you can hold on for a few more days and give it to me when the time is right. Is that okay?"

Her words obviously stunned the aunt.

The matter of the deaf in the palm is what all the mistresses care about the most. The reason why Madam Gu passed it to her was because she was old. But now Shao Yu and his wife are back, if she still holds on to it, wouldn't it be a joke?

That's why she made this special trip.

On the day of the family dinner, I will also hand over the house to her.

Originally, the Gu family's accounts were simple. Over the years, each family had its own rules, so it was not complicated to manage them.

The aunt knew that she was the daughter of a merchant family, so she was naturally good at accounting. But now she was rejected like this, and for a moment she really didn't know how to respond.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Du Jingyi looked at his aunt, Mrs. Xing, for help, and then she spoke.

"Look, I told you a long time ago that Shao Yu's wife wouldn't care about these things, but you just wouldn't listen. During the time I lived in the general's mansion, she was able to let her eldest sister-in-law and eldest aunt do the chores, and never took it on herself. She stayed in Xitang Courtyard every day to take care of her pregnancy. But it's okay, look at what a good child our Tai Ge'er is."

"If you hope that the baby in her belly will be as cute as Tai Ge'er, why don't you stay busy for a few more years, let them have a good time and raise the child, and then you step down?"

These few words made everyone laugh. Knowing that Du Jingyi was not retreating to advance, the aunt was happy to help and said with a smile.

"Okay, you two can just have as many children as you can. We will take care of the children. Look, there is only one child, Tai, who is being taken care of in Qiudeyuan by his mother-in-law like the apple of his eye. If we want to see him, we have to wait in line."

"Hahaha, don't worry, once your sister Chun's marriage is settled, it will be soon. It's about the New Year. I'm just worried that you will have too many grandchildren by then and won't be able to hug them all!"

Hearing this, my aunt felt both happy and sad.

Gu Xiaochun is now her legitimate daughter. She is also very filial in her daily life. Her rules, etiquette, attitude, words and deeds are impeccable.

But they became mother and daughter at such an old age, so there is still some distance between them.

This kind of emotion needs time to cultivate. Maybe in three to five years they can really be as close as a family, but now, she feels that Tai Ge'er and the baby in Du Jingyi's belly are the closest to her.

They talked for a while about the family dinner, and it was not until Gu Shaoyu came back that the aunt and Mrs. Xing, my aunt, spoke with a smirk.

"I won't delay you two's private conversation. Let's go to Qiudeyuan first. When Tai Ge wakes up later, it won't be my turn to hold him."

The eldest aunt said this jokingly, which made Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi smile.

After they all left, Du Jingyi said helplessly.

"What the general said before really came true. Look at how popular Tai Ge'er is now. Even as a mother, I envy his good luck."

Old Madam Gu, the four aunts and three aunts of the Gu family, plus dozens of maids and servants, are so favored that even the princes in the palace are probably about the same.

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu stepped forward, first looked up at Du Jingyi to make sure she was okay, and then spoke.

"Now he is still young, so it's nothing. When he is three or four years old, send him to the military camp to gain experience. By then, no one will be able to spoil him."

His words made Du Jingyi feel a little distressed. The little child was going to go to the military camp to suffer hardships. But when she thought about how her husband had also struggled through so much, and that he would have to support the Gu family in the future, she had no choice but to let go even though she felt distressed.

"General, it's up to you. I hope the baby in my belly is a girl, so she can spend some relaxing days with me at home."

What Du Jingyi said was actually what Gu Shaoyu was thinking.

But his intuition told him that it was probably another son, and a difficult one to deal with, because in the past two days he had always dreamed of a giant python chasing him, which was ferocious and difficult to deal with.

But he was not going to tell Du Jingyi about such stories about gods and ghosts. If she was scared while she was pregnant, wouldn't that be troublesome?

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

The couple sat and chatted for a while, then Du Jingyi felt sleepy again. He slept much more soundly this day than before.

Doctor Tan also agreed with this and kept telling her that it would be better for her to get more sleep.

Although she no longer took the pregnancy-preserving medicine, Danruo still stewed food every day according to the medicinal recipes given by Doctor Tan. Therefore, Du Jingyi was quite happy to eat.

Later, when she woke up, she saw her husband taking a nap beside her, and she felt relieved.

There is nothing more comfortable than lying down together with our fingers intertwined.

But the comfort didn't last long, because Tai Ge'er's laughter came from outside the door, giggling, like a happy little bird, laughing from morning to night.

Gu Shaoyu came to his senses upon hearing the voice, then stood up and tidied up Du Jingyi's clothes. After tidying up his own clothes, he shouted to the outside.

"Send Taige in."

"Yes, General."

Outside the door, besides wet nurse Fu, there were also Yingtao and several maids and old women looking after Tai Ge'er. They were all newly hired by the aunts. When wet nurse Fu first arrived and saw so many people, she felt a little nervous.

Could it be that they felt that she was not serving well and wanted to replace her? She was a little anxious and flustered at first, but later she found that they were all assigned to serve Tai Ge'er, and they even shared a lot of her work. For a while, she felt that taking care of Tai Ge'er had become an easy task.

Because there was always someone to help her with whatever she did, wet nurse Fu was very happy.
