Chapter 180 Lord, it’s quite fun
The little girl stretched out her hand and called out "Daddy" to Chen Jingyan. Her words were not clear, but Chen Jingyan was indeed shocked.
He immediately held his daughter in his arms.
"Can you call me daddy? You're much better than your two brothers in this regard."
The third child, who was praised, smiled even more happily.
On the contrary, the two little boys held by their wet nurse pouted with a look of grievance.
Yun Qiao saw the aggrieved and pitiful looks of her two sons and reached out to touch their little heads.
Unexpectedly, these two guys are also troublesome.
[I love my mother, please touch me again.]
[I want it too. I want my mother to kiss me, hug me, and hold me high.]
Yun Qiao looked at the two boys and thought to herself, this ability to read minds is really great. Now she doesn't have to rely on guessing when looking at children anymore. She can clearly know what they need.
Yun Qiao even thought, if a mother who had just given birth could read her child’s mind, wouldn’t it be easier to take care of the child?
Once the child can speak, the mother's mind-reading ability will disappear.
If only this super power really existed.
Of course, Yun Qiao was just imagining things. When she gave birth to her third child, when one of them cried, the other two followed suit. Yun Qiao was really overwhelmed.
Fortunately, she could hear what the third child was thinking.
Now everything is fine. She spent her wedding night with Chen Jingyan and took away his mind-reading ability.
She can now hear the voices of Chen Jingyan and the three children.
No, actually she could hear other things, but they were too noisy and she didn't want to listen, as if she could block them out.
The inner thoughts of the maids below are also quite interesting.
The Marquis is so handsome. He is so charming when he takes care of the baby.
The princess is so serious. Aunt Qiao has become a princess and can no longer be looked down upon.
I'm really afraid that the princess will come back and take revenge. I have to think about whether I have ever offended the princess.
Yun Qiao was too lazy to listen. It was normal for people to talk about you while you were alive.
Even the emperor is sometimes talked about by others.
They soon arrived at the old lady's courtyard, and Chen Jingyan and Yun Qiao first served tea to the grandmother.
The old lady was very happy.
"Just now, Brother Heng said that Yuanniang is pregnant and she had her period this morning, so I didn't let him come."
Gu Heng had arrived a long time ago.
He hasn't left yet.
Yun Qiao glanced at Gu Heng, wondering whether he chose not to tell her that Li Yuan had to save the fetus because she was hit by a car last night, or whether Li Yuan told Gu Heng that.
She has to go to Chunhui Garden later.
Chen Jingyan reached out and pulled Yun Qiao.
"Grandma asked me to sit down and have breakfast."
"Okay, I understand." Yun Qiao collected her thoughts and sat down with Chen Jingyan.
Although Gu Heng is the second master of the Marquis' Mansion, he is not a direct relative of the Marquis' Mansion. Chen Jingyan would naturally not serve tea to Gu Heng, but Gu Heng prepared all the gifts he should give.
Yun Qiao called out "Second Brother".
Gu Heng replied, Princess.
He didn't dare to go beyond.
Look at them calling him "Princess" and "Second Brother", Chen Jingyan looked extremely unhappy.
Seeing Yunqiao's favorite soup dumplings on the table, he picked up one and put it in Yunqiao's bowl.
[I wanted to give her something to eat, but look at her eyes. She keeps staring at my second brother. Why is she falling in love with someone else right after getting married?]
[I said, this woman is unreliable, she has never truly loved me.]
[Forget it, let's just give it to her. She's so hard to coax. If she gets angry again, I'll have to coax her again. It's tiring enough.]
This soup dumpling triggered a series of complaints from Chen Jingyan about her.
Yun Qiao suddenly wanted to know what Chen Jingyan was thinking when she complained about him in her heart?
"Eat more. You've been so busy lately that you've lost weight."
The soup dumplings that Chen Jingyan picked up for her finally made it into her bowl. Yun Qiao didn't want to eat them, she was just curious. Chen Jingyan was so hypocritical, wasn't he tired?
"Thank you, my Lord."
She looked calm and started eating.
The old lady was very happy to see that the couple lived in harmony and had deep love for each other.
After breakfast, I urged them to go back. It just so happened that Chen Jingyan also had his wedding leave. The two of them had been apart for most of the time before, and now they finally had some time to be alone.
"Put these three children in front of me. I'll take care of them for you. Just don't worry."
"Grandfather, I'm afraid they will make a lot of noise and you won't be able to rest well." Yun Qiao said.
"I still have a few years to live, and I just want children to make noise around me."
Chen Jingyan grabbed Yun Qiao's hand and said, "Listen to Grandma and let the three of them stay here with Grandma."
"Sanlang, you must respect the princess. You can't be like that before. After all, before the princess married you, she was your elder..."
Um?
How did you become his elder?
Yun Qiao smiled and said, "My Lord, you forgot that I am the late emperor's biological sister."
She spoke deliberately, biting her words.
Chen Jingyan: [Your status as a true princess is thanks to me. Now that you're a noble, you want to ride on my neck and pee and shit.]
Yun Qiao's expression was about to change.
But then Chen Jingyan said, "Grandma is right. I will show her respect. If it were as before, I would still call the princess aunt."
Yun Qiao looked at Chen Jingyan in astonishment as his expression changed so quickly.
"Aunt Princess, shall we go back?"
He said this with respect and courtesy.
If Yun Qiao hadn't been able to hear what Chen Jingyan was thinking, she would have truly believed what he said.
After leaving the old lady, Yun Qiao told Chen Jingyan that she wanted to go to Chunhui Garden to see Li Yuan.
"Do you need me to go with you?" Chen Jingyan asked her.
Yun Qiao glanced at him and said, "The woman is protecting the fetus, what are you doing with her?"
Chen Jingyan looked at his second brother who had just returned to Chunhui Garden.
I can't fathom Yunqiao's thoughts, but I do know my second brother's, and I trust him.
Yun Qiao looked at Chen Jingyan and asked him casually, "Doesn't the Marquis trust me?"
"Then I am really pitiful. I am married and have children, but I still can't make the Marquis believe me."
Yun Qiao turned around and walked towards Chunhui Garden.
In fact, the smile on his face was almost uncontrollable.
I just happened to run into Gu Heng in front of me.
"Second brother, wait a minute, wait for me..."
Gu Heng stopped in the distance, waiting for Yun Qiao, "Princess, what are you laughing at?"
Yun Qiao was so busy calling Gu Heng that she forgot to hide the smile on her face, which was just seen by Gu Heng.
Yun Qiao walked forward with brisk steps.
"I laugh, Lord. It's quite amusing."
"My Lord, is it fun?"
Gu Heng didn't understand what this meant at first, but then he thought about the dirty talk Li Yuan had said to him. She had also said that he was quite interesting, but this fun only referred to the physical aspect.
Gu Heng's face turned red instantly.
I feel a little embarrassed.
Yun Qiao couldn't help but reflect in her heart, did she say something she shouldn't have said?
No.
"I want to go see Yuanniang. I wonder how she is doing now?"
"She's fine. She's taking her medicine. Don't mind her absence this morning, Princess."
Yun Qiao smiled and said, "Why should I mind? Yuanniang and I are like sisters, why would I mind?"
Yun Qiao walked forward as she spoke, making it seem as if Gu Heng behind her was visiting Chunhui Garden for the first time.
Li Yuan was lying on the bed. When she heard the servants outside greeting the princess, her heart skipped a beat.
[The princess is here? Why is she here again? Is she upset because I didn't go this morning?]
[No, Sister Qiao is not that kind of person. She is so kind to me. I shouldn't think of her like that.]
Yun Qiao was about to enter the room, but when she heard what Li Yuan was thinking, she paused at the door.
"Yuanniang, I came to see you. Can I go in?"
"Of course, Princess, please come in."
Li Yuan took pregnancy-preserving medicine yesterday, and she was actually in good health, but she was worried that getting up today would cause another miscarriage, so she didn't get up.
Gu Heng came back very late last night. Li Yuan didn't tell her about her pregnancy. It was the maid who told her. After Gu Heng knew about it, he went to her and asked her. Li Yuan was so angry that she said directly, "Yes, I'm pregnant, but I don't want it..."
Gu Heng's face was dark and long with anger at that time. The two of them were angry for the whole night. She slept on her own while Gu Heng spent the night in the outer room.
When she woke up in the morning, she found that Gu Heng was gone.
It was Qiu Chan who came in again and said a lot of things.
"The Second Master knew that the Second Madam was pregnant and needed to protect the fetus, so he went to find the eldest wife and told her that the Second Madam didn't need to go to the front yard this morning. She should rest well in Chunhui Garden."
"Second Master cares about Second Madam, please don't be angry. Being angry is not good for the fetus in your belly."
Li Yuan wiped her tears and said that she didn't say that on purpose, she definitely wanted to keep the baby in her belly.
But she was also worried. This morning the Marquis and the Princess were going to offer tea to the old ancestor. If they didn't go, would the Princess be unhappy?
Unexpectedly, Yun Qiao would come to see her so early.
Li Yuan wanted to get up, but was held down by Yun Qiao.
"Just lie down and don't get up. I just came to check on you."
"The Second Master is outside the door. He's worried about you. He's also worried that the Marquis might be unhappy, so he explained. The Marquis asked me to come and see you. The most important thing for you now is to take care of the baby. Don't worry about anything else."
"Is your stomach still hurting? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"
Li Yuan smiled and said, "I'm not feeling any discomfort. In fact, I didn't bleed much last night. I got up this morning and took a look. There's still some blood, but not much."
"Then you still have to lie down for a few more days."
"But I'm only in charge of half of the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, and the rest is a mess."
Li Yuan was in a dilemma and didn't want to just throw away the mess he had left.
"I'll let Miss Zhang take care of it first. If there are any major issues, go to the old lady. If there are any minor matters, I will handle them. Are you still worried?"
"Of course I'm relieved. I didn't want to be involved in the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion in the first place. I took her over because the old ancestor was in poor health. Now that the princess has entered the Marquis' Mansion, you can take care of her."
[Finally, she found someone to take charge. This mansion is so complicated, she's exhausted and really doesn't want to manage it.]
[If Sister Qiao is in charge, I will offer it to you with both hands]
Li Yuan didn't dare to call her Sister Qiao anymore, mainly because it was inappropriate.
First of all, she is now Gu Heng's wife.
It is true that Gu Heng is the Marquis’ second brother, but his identity is not legitimate.
Outsiders call him the Second Master, and the Marquis calls him the Second Brother, but he really cannot think of himself as the Second Master of the Marquis's Mansion, nor can he really think of himself as the Marquis's second brother.
Naturally, as Gu Heng's wife, she couldn't consider herself the sister-in-law of the marquis and the princess.
But calling her Sister Qiao is not appropriate.
It would be more appropriate to call her princess, as it suits her status and shows respect.
Yun Qiao didn't correct her and just followed her and shouted.
Seeing that Li Yuan didn't mention Gu Heng's fiancée, Yun Qiao didn't ask much and asked Li Yuan to have a good rest. Yun Qiao walked out and called the maid Qiu Chan.
"Princess, the Second Madam told me this morning to go back and serve you. I can't stay in Chunhui Garden all the time."
"Okay then, go inside and tell the Second Madam, then go back directly."
After Yun Qiao finished speaking, she ordered a servant to go and tell the second master in the study.
Gu Heng came out immediately and personally welcomed Yun Qiao into the house.
"I'm looking for you, second brother. I have something small to tell you. Yesterday afternoon, before second brother came back, I came to Chunhui Garden. I heard from the maid that second brother has a fiancée outside. Normally, I shouldn't interfere in this matter, but Yuan Niang had a miscarriage because of organizing the wedding banquet for me and the Marquis. She is in a bad mood. This is my business, I have to intervene."
Gu Heng: [This princess is quite well-informed. I just found out I have a fiancée, and she's already intervening. Could it be that Li Yuan has said something to the princess?]
"Second brother? Why aren't you saying anything? Yuanniang doesn't know about this yet. I want to know what you're doing, second brother."
Gu Heng immediately expressed his attitude.
"That woman said she was my fiancée, but that was just a verbal agreement between my parents. She wasn't even born then, so it was just talk. But now, it's the Zhao family's daughter who's come to me with a marriage contract, and I can't refuse."
Yun Qiao: "Why is it so hard to refuse? You can just accept her as your sister. If she doesn't listen to your advice, then just cancel the engagement. Give her what she deserves and compensate her if she deserves. But you can't do this in person. If you're confident, leave it to me. If not, I'll call Mother Chang."
Men should not have frequent contact with single, unmarried women.
If this goes on for a while, I'm afraid I'll get into trouble.
Yun Qiao knew that Li Yuan loved Gu Heng, and she wanted to help Li Yuan.
It would be best to cut off the chance for the so-called engaged couple to meet and send the girl from the Zhao family away.
Gu Heng and Yun Qiao talked about the situation of the girl from the Zhao family.
The girl from the Zhao family is from Jiangcheng and has some relationship with the Gu family. It was because the relatives of the Gu family came to Kyoto City and got benefits from Gu Heng. After returning, they spread the word everywhere, saying that Gu Heng was the second master in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion and was now very powerful.
The Chen family, Marquis of Zhenbei, entrusted all their business in Jiangcheng to Gu Heng.
When the girl from the Zhao family heard about this, she came to the door.
The Zhao family was originally a wealthy family. Knowing that something happened to Gu Heng's family, they did not mention the marriage.
Now that the Zhao family has fallen, the girl from the Zhao family does not want to marry down, and seeing that Gu Heng is living a good life, the girl from the Zhao family came to him.
After Yun Qiao understood the situation, she became more certain that the woman was after the man. At least before she met Gu Heng, she was after the money. But now, she was not sure whether she was after the man. After all, Gu Heng was good-looking, gentle and refined.
The woman saw it clearly.
