Chapter 118 Back to the Beginning
Xu Yueyao slept all the way, and when she opened her eyes, she had already arrived at the imperial capital.
"Where are we going?" Xu Yueyao didn't seem to be heading in the direction of Huafu.
"Let's go to the Liyuan Garden. Chen Di and the others are waiting for us there. Tianyi and Shu Tong have prepared a whole roasted lamb," Zhan Rongxuan helped her straighten her hair.
When Xu Yueyao got off the car and saw them, Tianyi and Shu Tong walked up to her and looked at her belly.
Tianyi wiped the tears from her eyes and said to Shu Tong: "Let me make it clear first, in terms of age, I am the first, and I am the godmother."
Shu Tong was unwilling and raised his hand to go to the table, "I am the little godmother."
The three of them looked at each other, holding hands tightly, their eyes were filled with tears at first, then they burst into laughter, and they became close in an instant.
They walked into the yard hand in hand and saw Duan Jingyi and Shen Yan roasting a whole lamb. Shen Yan was still complaining, but Duan Jingyi was still as enthusiastic as ever, looking eager to try.
They were not surprised to see Xu Yueyao. Chen Yan glanced at her stomach and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry? It will be ready soon.
"Where is Chen Di?" Zhan Rongxuan didn't see him and thought he hadn't arrived yet.
"I'll wait for you inside," Duan Jingyi said, still taking the opportunity to sprinkle the ingredients in his hand on, which immediately satisfied him, causing Chen Yan to complain again.
Xu Yueyao couldn't help but laugh. Everything was still the same as before.
When Chen He came out and saw Xu Yueyao, he was still dazed for a moment.
"I've made an appointment for you. Rong Xuan will take you for a check-up tomorrow."
Chen Di looked at her. In fact, he wanted to ask her whether she went to see him before the accident just to say goodbye to him, but in the end he didn't ask. Forget it. As long as she came back, it was good.
Xu Yueyao and Zhan Rongxuan went to change their clothes. They sat together and raised their glasses to celebrate Xu Yueyao's return. Everything was the same as before.
The news of Xu Yueyao's return spread like wildfire, and all the noble families in the imperial capital heard about it. Those who had had some thoughts about her disappearance also gave up, because they all knew that the orphan girl came back with a big belly, and the position of the young lady of the Zhan family was secured.
*
Old Madam Zhan looked at Xu Yueyao's belly and felt happy. She slowly raised her head to look at Xu Yueyao's face and her face fell.
"You're already pregnant and you're not stable enough. How can you be a good wife of the Zhan family? Come to my old house more often when you have time. I'll take the trouble to teach you."
Xu Yueyao lowered her head as if to be taught, but when she was asked to come to the old house often, she was unwilling to do so. She looked up at Zhan Rongxuan with a look as if she was trying to save her life.
Zhan Rongxuan understood and said, "Grandma, Yaoyao's due date is almost here, so it's not convenient for her to travel back and forth."
"Then you can move in, clean up your room, and turn Rongting's room next door into a baby room."
"Forget it, grandma. We are used to living in Liyuan. But we went for a check-up today and the child is fine. Yaoyao, show grandma the check-up report."
"Okay! Okay," Xu Yueyao took out the examination report from her bag and handed it to Mrs. Zhan.
Although Old Madam Zhan didn't understand, she was happy and the smile on her face never stopped.
Before dinner in the evening, all the Zhan family members except the third uncle were present. Xu Yueyao vaguely heard that the third uncle's son died at birth, and he could not bear the blow, so he fell ill.
Zhan Rongting looked at Xu Yueyao meaningfully. He didn't expect that she actually came back. He looked at her belly again and clenched the cup in his hand. It seems that some things are just fate.
Zhan Rongjing looked at her, smiling gently, her eyes full of surprise, and looked at her belly with anticipation. She walked to Xu Yueyao and handed her a gift, "Congratulations, sister-in-law, congratulations, brother."
Zhan Rongxuan touched her head. In the Zhan family, they were brother and sister without any hostility. Xu Yueyao also liked her very much. She was pretty, well-educated and well-mannered, a typical example of a rich girl.
Zhan Rongjun has changed a lot. Her hair has changed from short to a fashionable bob. She wears earrings and a necklace. She is no longer dressed in a neutral style, but looks like an urban beauty.
"What are you looking at? I didn't expect that you would have the last laugh."
"Zhan Rongjun! Call me sister-in-law." Zhan Rongxuan rarely spoke to teach her a lesson. Xu Yueyao touched his arm to stop him. She didn't want to make things unhappy on this occasion. She just wanted it to end smoothly so that she could go back peacefully.
Xu Yueyao looked back at her. Zhan Rongjun's lips curled up slightly, not looking angry. "Sister-in-law, I didn't bring a gift today. I'll send it to you another day."
"Okay, thank you," Xu Yueyao was suddenly a little flattered. This tomboy suddenly became cute.
After the dinner, Mr. Zhan and Mrs. Zhan rewarded Xu Yueyao with many gifts in front of everyone and gave her enough face, which was considered as a formal recognition of her identity.
When Xu Yueyao returned to the Liyuan, she lay on the bed and didn't want to move at all.
"I'm not going anywhere tomorrow. I'm so tired."
"Okay, I won't go out. I'll run the bath water and help you take a bath."
Xu Yueyao nodded. While she was taking a bath, Zhan Rongxuan was waiting for her outside. Xu Yueyao didn't have the courage to let him see her in her current state, and she even refused to let Ding Ding in.
Zhan Rongxuan couldn't get in, so he sat outside waiting for her. Thinking of the call he would receive from Nangong Yan in the afternoon, he asked tentatively.
"If the Nangong family wants to recognize you, would you be happy?"
Xu Yueyao was holding bubbles in her hands, and was stunned for a moment when she heard his words. She had never thought about this question. To be honest, she didn't feel anything. If it were the original owner, she should be happy. After all, Zhan Rongxuan said that they cared about this daughter very much.
"Let it be," she doesn't know yet, she will wait until she has a chance to meet them, after all, feelings are mutual, if they really like her, she will have feelings for them, if not, there is no need to force it.
Xu Yueyao came out, Zhan Rongxuan helped her blow dry the ends of her hair, hugged her from behind, looked at the mirror and said to her: "No matter what decision you make, don't force yourself, I will always stand by you."
"Thank you, husband," Xu Yueyao patted his face, her face full of happiness.
The word "husband" made Zhan Rongxuan's face full of joy. The corners of his mouth raised, he smelled her hair, and slowly his lips fell on her neck. Suddenly, the tip of his nose touched something? He opened his eyes and saw a bottle of lotion.
"Dear husband, please apply it on my belly to prevent stretch marks." Xu Yueyao shook the lotion in her hand.
Zhan Rongxuan opened his mouth and gently bit her ear, "My dear wife, I am very happy to serve you."
Xu Yueyao lay on the bed, watching him pour a little lotion into his palms, rub his hands together, and gently stroke his belly.
His fingers were well-defined and slender like jade. Xu Yueyao was very satisfied and enjoyed Zhan Rongxuan's service comfortably. "Are we going to live in Liyuan from now on?"
"Well, Huafu's place is too small. It's not convenient for you now. I'll have someone move the things there when I have time."
Xu Yueyao suddenly thought of the letter she left behind and suddenly became a little nervous.
"What's wrong?" Zhan Rongxuan stroked her belly and felt her tenseness.
"Have you found anything in the study, or do you have anything you want to ask me?" Xu Yueyao asked tentatively.
Zhan Rongxuan thought about it and nodded, "If Nangong Yan wants to take you back to the ancient city, will you go?"
"Ah? No, my home is here, I'm not going anywhere." Xu Yueyao closed her eyes and felt relieved. It seemed that he didn't find the letter.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. Yes, her home is here, where else can she go?
Zhan Rongxuan was wearing a white shirt today with his cuffs folded up, revealing his slender wrists. Leng Bai's slender fingers carefully applied every inch of her belly, with a slight powder on his fingertips, as seriously as if he was treating a work of art.
