Chapter 393 Can't Stop
It took Ye Mingzhu a while to understand what he meant. He was afraid that she would not take the medicine and get angry with Aunt Jiang.
She said with a mixture of amusement and anger, "You've been married to me for so long, and when have you ever seen me and mother quarrel? Of course I know that mother asked me to take this medicine because she loves me."
She glanced up at him with a smile on her face: "Mom told me that it's best for women to have children after they turn 18."
Anyway, she is not in a hurry to have a baby, as long as Jiang Hongyu is not in a hurry either.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Hongyu hugged her and said, "It's just me and my mother who are left in the Jiang family. My mother has no objection to whether we want to have a child or when we want to have one. We can decide for ourselves."
"Actually, it's better not to have children. Life is more peaceful with just the two of us."
Ye Mingzhu tilted her head and looked at him with a sincere expression. She also believed in his feelings for her at the moment, but she just responded with a smile, without much belief in her heart.
This was in ancient times, when concubines were legal. If the wife could not give birth to a boy, countless people would come to persuade the male owner to take a concubine.
Isn’t it because Aunt Jiang has no children that Jiang Hongyu’s biological mother gave birth to a child for his eldest sister?
There will always be people criticizing DINK families in modern times, not to mention the ancient times when "there are three unfilial acts, and the worst is to have no children", so she just listened and didn't take it seriously.
Seeing that she stopped talking, Jiang Hongyu thought she was shy, so he didn't say much. He went to pour water himself and watched Ye Mingzhu take the medicine.
"You have something to do, you don't have to accompany me. I'll go see Sister Lin later." Ye Mingzhu pushed Jiang Hongyu.
Jiang Hongyu never stays on the island for long, and there are always some miscellaneous things to deal with, and she also has to sort out the things she brought back.
Jiang Hongyu's face was full of reluctance, but he had to go to the county government office today to discuss some things with Yu Jiaming. He also had to go and see how Uncle Yan's house was being tidied up, and he also had to buy some things to decorate his own house.
He explained the household matters to Ye Mingzhu and asked her to just watch Lao Hu and Yunniang make the arrangements, but he had to go in person to take care of the outside matters.
Ye Mingzhu urged him twice before he got up and left, saying that he would bring her some snacks from the county town when he came back.
Ye Mingzhu shook her head and chuckled. He had forgotten that she was the owner of the dim sum shop.
Having said that, she reminded Jiang Hongyu to go to Sweetheart Place and if there were any problems, she would go over there.
However, since the opening of Sweetheart House, she has had almost nothing to worry about, thanks to Aunt Mo, Ruan Linlin and Wu Yue.
Jiang Hongyu smiled and said he understood and would definitely help her check it out.
Almost all these farms and shops were registered under Ye Mingzhu's name and were considered as Ye Mingzhu's dowry. Jiang Hongyu never said anything and even helped her take care of the farms and shops.
For example, if there was no Aunt Mo, Sweetheart House would not be able to open at all.
Since getting married, Ye Mingzhu's wallet has gradually become fatter and her life has become more comfortable. She is once again convinced that her original vision was good.
After Jiang Hongyu left, she sorted out the things she brought back from the provincial capital this time, picked out some fabrics suitable for children, and packed some small toys, preparing to give them to Lin Dongjia.
When Yunniang saw her going out, she wanted to accompany her, but Ye Mingzhu waved her hand and said, "I can go by myself. You can help me with some chores at home."
Although Aunt Jiang was marrying for the second time, Uncle Yan valued her and they didn't want to let Aunt Jiang down. There were a lot of things to prepare, including a lot of quilts and clothes. Aunt Jiang was afraid of tiring Ye Mingzhu, so she and Yunniang did it together.
Yunniang was worried and watched Ye Mingzhu enter the Lin residence before going back.
Hongye saw that Ye Mingzhu's face was full of smiles: "My young lady has been talking about Madam for a long time."
Ye Mingzhu and Hongye were quite familiar with each other, and joked, "I'm afraid Sister Lin is talking about me a lot, and she's talking about the blueprints in my hand."
Lin Dongjia's voice came from a distance: "You are so good, Mingzhu. You just came back from the capital and you have already learned how to plot against others."
Ye Mingzhu saw a round figure moving towards them from a distance. She handed the thing in her hand to Hongye and walked forward quickly: "So Sister Lin didn't miss my blueprint. I'll give it to you next time."
Lin Dongjia patted Ye Mingzhu's hand as she supported her and said, "You, Linglong Pavilion's business is not mine alone. Why don't you take out the blueprint and let me see it?"
Ye Mingzhu really didn't bring any blueprints this time. She made a gesture of begging for mercy: "Good sister, I just remembered to bring you something. I will get the blueprints for you when I go back. I promise not to delay your Linglong Pavilion's business."
"That's more like it." Lin Dongjia glared at her in anger and laughed first.
Then she looked at Ye Mingzhu carefully again and said, "Mingzhu, did you secretly use some skin care products when you went to the capital this time? You look much better than before."
She even pulled Hongye to look at her: "Hongye, look, isn't Mingzhu more beautiful now than she was just after the New Year?"
Hongye looked her up and down seriously and nodded affirmatively: "Mrs. Jiang is more beautiful than before."
Ye Mingzhu smiled and shook her head: "You two, master and servant, are joking with me. I've only been out for a short time, how could I possibly become beautiful?"
Lin Dongjia looked at Ye Mingzhu carefully again, and then he found that she had a smile on her lips and a spring in her eyes, which should be the reason for the harmonious relationship between husband and wife.
She didn't insist on asking the reason, but just smiled and said that if she got something good, she must not be left out. Since she became pregnant, the skin on her face was obviously not as good as before, and she had some spots on her face.
Although she doesn't have to please others now, she still hopes to be more beautiful.
Ye Mingzhu had just noticed that her complexion wasn't as good as before, and her belly was very big. She was a little worried when she heard this: "Sister Lin's belly seems to be bigger than usual. Could it be twins?"
Lin Dongjia shook his head: "I've asked Aunt Jiang to check it out, and asked a midwife to feel the belly. There is a child inside. It's just that I've been feeling hungry recently and can't stop eating, so I've gained some weight."
Ye Mingzhu remembered that Lin Dongjia had a wet nurse who always cared about her health. How could she allow her to eat too much?
"Miss, you can't eat anymore, otherwise the wet nurse will not forgive me when she comes back." Hongye advised, and at the same time moved the snack plate next to Lin Dongjia away.
"Miss, we agreed that you can only eat four snacks a day. If you finish them now, you won't have any in the afternoon."
Lin Dongjia glanced at the last piece of dessert on the plate with reluctance, quickly stuffed the dessert in his hand into his mouth, and said vaguely, "Take the dessert away."
Hongye looked at her young lady with a reluctant expression, but she quickly took the snacks away.
"Sister Lin, the snacks are too sweet. If you are hungry, you can ask the kitchen to make some buns or something like that." Ye Mingzhu advised.
"The wet nurse will be back in the next two days, so you won't be able to eat it even if you want to." Lin Dongjia's face was full of regret.
