Yi Ning then thought that maybe she had eaten too much, and she coughed and wiped her mouth and laughed. "Grandma, why are you looking at me?"
Mrs. Wei nodded and said, "When you were a girl, you could only drink a bowl of porridge in the morning and then you couldn't eat at noon. You were so delicate and delicate. But now you have a good appetite and can drink three bowls in one go. This is great. I see you have become a little plumper."
There's nothing I can do about it; my appetite is just great right now. Luckily, I haven't gained much weight. She was thin to begin with, so a little rounder is good. That's all Yi Ning can do to comfort herself.
"Sister-in-law, you haven't met Bao Ge'er yet, right?" Old Mrs. Wei handed the child to her. The little guy opened his arms to ask his mother to hold him like a little pigeon.
Yi Ning took him over and saw that he was wearing a new pair of tiger-head shoes. She thought that the old lady really loved him. "He's busy in the capital, so I haven't seen him yet."
Old Mrs. Wei said, "Forget it, we'll take care of Baoger first." The old lady cheered up, "Look at those tiger-head shoes, aren't they nice? I made them when I had nothing to do. Your father wore the tiger-head shoes I made when he was a child! Baoger looks refreshed in them." Yining held Baoger's little feet, and they were indeed made exquisitely and beautifully.
After a while, Miss He Er came over.
She married in Tongzhou, and her husband was a Jinshi who had passed the same imperial examination as her third brother and had just completed his probationary period at the Ministry of Works. Miss He's daughter, several months older than Bao'er, wore a pink silk jacket and was called Yingjie'er. She sat timidly in her mother's arms.
Yining hadn't seen Miss He Er in years. They'd had a lot of fun together back at the Duke's Mansion. Miss He Er was quite happy to see her. "I was already married when you got married, and I hadn't even seen you off to the wedding ceremony yet—oh, I want to take Sister Ying to get a pair of silver anklets today. Would you like to go with me? There's a new gold and silver shop next to the Xiangyun Teahouse. The jewelry is all very fine, and it's a large shop."
After hearing this, Yi Ning finally understood that Old Madam Wei was afraid that she would become depressed in the Duke's Mansion, so she specially found someone to accompany her for a walk.
Actually, there is no need to worry. She has been in Xuanfu for several months and is no longer depressed.
"It's good to go and have a look. I haven't been to the capital for a long time." Yining agreed and shook Bao Ge'er's hand, teasing him, "Can you buy us a candy figurine for Bao Ge'er?"
Baoger sat in his mother's arms ignorantly, grabbing her hand and biting it.
