"Go home! Follow me yourself!" Zhao Ergou said without turning his head.
Song was overjoyed and, lifting her dress, trotted after him.
Zhao Yanniang and He Tiantian were startled. "Song Shi, be careful."
"Mr. Song, watch your step!"
After the two had walked away, He Tiantian asked suspiciously, "Aunt Zhao, are you sure that Song is carrying a boy?"
Zhao Yanniang sighed and shook her head.
"I don't know anything about fetal signs, I was just trying to comfort them. If I didn't say that, would Er Gou agree? What if Song Shi had a change of heart..."
Okay, that's the same reason He Tiantian thought.
It's getting colder and colder in Changning County. Now, every night, the wind howls outside.
It seems that winter is approaching, and every household is preparing winter clothes, quilts, and food to keep warm.
Remembering the heavy snow that blocked the mountains last year and the resulting scarcity of supplies, everyone felt a great sense of crisis, fearing that this year would be another year of disaster.
Winter is approaching, which means the New Year that everyone is looking forward to is just around the corner. This year, Lunar New Year's Eve is a full month earlier than last year.
As the year draws to a close, many jobs in the city are gradually coming to an end.
Those villagers who relied on odd jobs in the city to supplement their income gradually found themselves unable to earn any money.
He Tiantian has been back in the city for more than ten days. Every day, besides being busy running the shop, she doesn't have much else to do.
The magistrate's wife had been saying she was coming to see her, but so much time had passed and there had been no sign of her.
He Tiantian looked at the sky outside and decided to go to the magistrate's residence by herself.
She glanced at Liu Chuyu, who was practicing archery in the courtyard, and called out, "Chuyu."
Hearing the noise in the backyard, Liu Chuyu rushed over without even putting down her bow and arrow.
"Auntie, what's wrong?"
"I want to go to your house to talk to your mother about something. You haven't been back for a while, so why don't we go together?"
Children in their early teens still miss home and their parents.
Liu Chuyu was overjoyed, "Great, Auntie. I haven't seen my mother in a long time either."
“And your father…” He Tiantian added.
Liu Chuyu seemed very uncomfortable and awkwardly ran upstairs to get her things.
Although his relationship with his father has improved somewhat, there is still a slight awkwardness between them now.
Oh well, at least he won't get scolded when he goes home now. This is a good start.
He Tiantian also went upstairs, having specially changed into a proper outfit.
After all, clothes make the man, and if she were to go to see the magistrate's wife dressed too shabbily, it would be a sign of disrespect.
The magistrate's office was quite far from He Tiantian's restaurant. They set off at noon and didn't arrive until evening.
When Liu Chuyu arrived at her own door, she went up and started banging on the door.
"Open the door! Open the door! This young master is back."
He Tiantian's inner thoughts: "..."
This rich kid's true colors are revealed once he gets home. It's a good thing she's taught him for so long; he's really ruined the family!
