Chapter 355 My dear, you don’t want us to go to the master now, do you?
With Yun Kui, Yun Gang, Chen Mo, Wu Tu and others all here, they can resist even if the imperial court suddenly attacks.
The Piaomiao River was turbulent, and it was not easy for the Northern Yan army to cross the river and attack the city, nor was it easy for the imperial court to cross the river and attack the city.
Cui Si felt a little relieved at this thought, but she also had a new worry: "Northern Yan's territory is growing, and the number of scholars and officials required is increasing. There is indeed a shortage."
"By the way, are you guys willing to go?"
Cui Si asked this sincerely: "Among the eight of you, four retired due to injuries, and four were not selected for various reasons. But if you want to go somewhere else, it's enough to find a good future for yourself."
As long as he is not in Yanyunwei, he can go somewhere else to show his abilities and earn a future for himself.
Yan Nanxiang immediately said, "My lady, you are worrying too much. The most important thing is for us to stay by your side. I know that you are kind-hearted. I am afraid that you have delayed our future. But if we stay by your side, we will naturally have a future. At the very least, we will have a safe and worry-free life."
Even at other times, none of them had the idea of leaving, let alone now.
Cui Si opened her mouth to speak, but Yan Nanxiang said, "My lady, you don't want us to go to the master now, do you?"
Cui Si: "!!!"
Cui Si was completely shocked. Has he learned how to threaten her?
Now they are still her subordinates, so they obey her orders. Even though they wanted to tell Yan Xingchuan about her pregnancy, they also knew who was their master now, so they could only keep silent.
If Cui Si wanted them to leave, she would have written a letter to Yan Xingchuan the next moment.
Yan Nanxiang added, "My lady, you forgot that the young master also needs someone around him. If you find us annoying in the future, it would be nice for us to take care of the young master."
Cui Si thought about it and felt that there was some truth in it, so she didn't mention it anymore: "Forget it, I think I said too much on this matter."
Cui Si sat in the teahouse for an hour, listening to all the official and unofficial histories, before leaving with satisfaction.
When she went downstairs, she couldn't help feeling happy when she saw people and cars coming and going in the street and the sound of hawkers hawking.
"That's great!"
In troubled times, what people like most is such prosperous and lively scenes. Occasionally, when you come out to take a look, you will feel that the boredom in your heart has dissipated, and there is joy and new life in the world.
Song Lu carefully supported her: "My lady, please be careful."
Cui Si nodded, let her help her, and got on the carriage parked nearby to go home.
Because her body could not bear the bumps, the carriage moved slowly. The three of them felt a little bored sitting in the carriage. Song Lu took out a notebook and read to her, while Yan Zhi took out a basket and continued to make small shoes for the child.
The days are peaceful and the years are leisurely.
During these days in Yunzhou City, perhaps because she had a child and had hope in her heart, Cui Si's mood had visibly improved. Except for occasionally worrying about how to write a letter to the old lady to report her safety, everything else went smoothly.
After sitting in the carriage leaning against the soft pillow for a while, she felt a little sleepy. She yawned with her hand covering her mouth, then sat up straight, moved closer to the window, lifted the curtain and looked out.
A gust of wind blew, and she felt much more awake. She sniffed and smelled the sweet aroma of candy. Looking up, she saw a man carrying a straw target selling candy figures along the street.
The sugar figures are sparkling and made in various shapes, and their sweet taste makes people linger.
“Stop, stop—”
There are probably all kinds of strange things in the world. When other people are pregnant, they like to eat sour or spicy food, and people pay attention to "sour boy, spicy girl" to guess whether they are pregnant with a son or a daughter.
But she is amazing. She used to like to eat some sour fruits, but after three months, she started to like sweet food. She could eat all kinds of sweet fruits, snacks, candies, and preserved fruits until she couldn't walk.
In the past two months, Doctor Lin has come three or four times. He heard that she loved to eat sweets, so he asked her to eat less. For this reason, everyone in the mansion kept a very strict watch on her. She herself was not unaware of the seriousness of the matter, and she also tried hard to restrain herself.
She hadn't eaten for two days, and she looked at the sugar man and couldn't walk.
Want to eat.
After having the carriage stopped, Cui Si got off and quickly walked up to the big man: "Brother, there are two, no, three sugar men."
Yanzhi and Songlu didn't know what she wanted to do at first. They just thought she saw something interesting and wanted to buy it. But when they saw her standing next to the candy man seller, it was too late to stop her.
"Okay, ma'am, which ones do you want?"
"I want one with floral leaves, one with a rabbit, and one with a tiger."
"Okay, okay, take it."
Cui Si took it and asked Yanzhi to pay.
Song Lu's face wrinkled up beside him. "My dear, didn't we agree to eat less sweets? Doctor Lin also told you to eat less."
"But I've been holding it in for two days."
Yanzhi took out the copper coins and paid, then tried to negotiate with Cui Si: "How about you just eat one and I'll buy you another tomorrow?"
Cui Si looked at the sugar figurine in her hand and hesitated: "But I bought them all."
Yanzhi added, "My maidservant and Songlu also want to eat it. Why don't you give it to us, Madam?"
Song Lu nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Yes, yes, yes, my lady, I want to eat too."
Cui Si looked at the sugar figures in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly agreed: "Okay, okay, then I'll give one to each of you."
After saying that, she took a tiger for herself and gave the remaining two to the two people. Songlu took the rabbit and Yanzhi took the flower and leaf.
Song Lu kept saying nice things to coax her: "Thank you, my lady. You are so kind. This is the first time I have eaten such delicious candy."
Cui Si's teeth ached as she ate the candy figures. "Alright, stop talking. It looks like I've wronged you."
As Cui Liuniang's personal maids, these two people's family backgrounds were not particularly wealthy, but definitely not small. Occasionally, when Cui Si got something good, she would leave some for them.
Although Cui Si was generous to Qu Niangzi, a friend she met by chance and got along well with, she was even more generous to the two of them. Over the years, she gave them more than a dozen pieces of gold jewelry.
Song Lu laughed, then bit off the rabbit's head with a roar. As he ate, he said, "This is something I begged from my wife, so it's different."
Cui Si was just about to say that her eating manner was scary and would scare the children when she suddenly saw a man in blue clothes walking through the crowd.
He passed by in a hurry, like flowing clouds and running water. Cui Si just blinked and saw only his back.
But that back figure looked very familiar, as if...
Cui Si was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and quickly caught up.
