Chapter 148 Returning to My Mother's Home
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went back to my parents’ home.
Su Zhenzhen went back to her parents' home early that day with Rong Jinchen.
The Su family is also in high spirits today. After all, it has been almost a month since the eldest daughter, Princess Yan, returned to her parents' home on Laba Festival last year.
Su Zhenzhen was dressed in a chubby way, with a pretty and bright face that made people like her.
Su Qiyang, Ye Mingyan and others were waiting at the main gate early. After all, it was the princess returning to her parents' home, so there was a ceremonial guard.
Su Zhenzhen and Rong Jinchen usually didn't make such a fuss. At most, they would have two carriages and a dozen personal guards, and the Su family didn't need to wait at the main gate.
The ceremony this time was as grand as a visit to one's parents' home, so Su Qiyang and the others had to wait at the main gate.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, and to His Royal Highness the Princess."
"Dad, Mom, big brother and sister-in-law, happy new year~" Su Zhenzhen smiled happily.
Rong Jinchen also nodded at them.
Because it was cold, they didn't chat at the door, but went into Chaohui Hall to talk.
As before, men chatted with men and women talked with women.
Su Zhenzhen looked at her second sister-in-law, "Second sister-in-law, you look well." It was obvious that Gu Hanyue was well taken care of and her pregnancy was not that torturous.
Gu Hanyue glanced at Su Yu, pursing her lips and smiling sweetly, but remained silent. Instead, her eldest sister-in-law, Lin Murou, spoke for her: "Zhenzhen, you don't know. My sister-in-law started having morning sickness in November, three months into her pregnancy. It scared my second brother so much he kept promising that he would treat her well and not let her down. It was only around the New Year that she started to feel better." After Su Jun's counsel, she finally came to terms with it; having a child was fate after all.
They already have Xuan Ge'er, so they have no pressure to have offspring.
Here, Rong Jinchen and the men of the Su family also started talking about how good their wives were to them. Men also have a strong desire to win.
Su Yu looked at Rong Jinchen enviously, "Your Highness, I heard from Zhenzhen that you have a thousand taels of pocket money a month!" He only has twenty taels a month!
Su Qiyang's eyes flickered slightly, and he stroked his beautiful beard. So, the rumors in the capital were true? His precious daughter didn't need a housekeeper, she just wanted to count money?
Su Jun and Su Qiyang looked at Rong Jinchen with the same expression. Rong Jinchen pursed his lips and shook his head, "No." Su Yu was shocked, Su Jun frowned, Su Qiyang narrowed his peach blossom eyes, and Rong Jinchen was calm and a little proud: "Qingqing gave me 10,000 taels of silver as a New Year's money the day before yesterday." So it's not one thousand taels.
"Damn it!" Su Yu couldn't help but swear!
Su Jun and Su Qiyang looked at each other silently. His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is a love-brained man. Isn’t the money his?
Fortunately, it’s Zhenzhen who has money, and they are not the ones who are upset, so it doesn’t matter.
Su Yu felt sad and continued, "Yue'er also made me a dress. I felt sorry for her and asked her not to make it, but she said that I just like wearing the clothes she made. The previous one was almost white from washing." It doesn't matter. What he and Yue'er value is not money, but the thought! It's the thought!
Su Qiyang took a sip of tea and said, "Your mother made me a set of pajamas yesterday." Su Jun said slowly, "Rou'er also made me a pair of deerskin boots."
Rong Jinchen was disdainful. Just as he was about to speak, Su Zhenzhen happened to come over and wanted to chat with her father and brothers. She looked at his expression with a sense of meaning and said hurriedly: "Husband, shut up!" Don't show off that he can embroider sachets! Su Zhenzhen couldn't guarantee that the mouths of the Su family were as tightly sealed as those in front of the emperor.
Rong Jinchen smiled at her obediently and stopped talking.
Su Jun and Su Yu looked at Su Zhenzhen curiously. Su Zhenzhen resolutely kept silent. "Big brother, don't laugh at me. It's not like you don't know that my needlework is not good enough. Humph."
Su Qiyang's peach blossom eyes flashed with a look of confusion, "Tsk..."
After everyone washed their hands, they sat at the rosewood round table to eat. Because Rong Jinchen and Su Zhenzhen were unscrupulously passing food to each other, Su Jun and Su Yu, who were more reserved and focused on eating, imitated Rong Jinchen's actions.
Su Qiyang was not the type to be so clingy. After all, he was a grandfather, and he just shared the delicious food with Ye Mingyan as before.
At this moment, Su Jun felt that today's milk and water chestnut starch cake tasted good, so he picked up some and gave it to Lin Murou with chopsticks. She smiled and picked it up to eat herself. Unexpectedly, she couldn't help but want to vomit after just one bite, so she quickly put down her chopsticks and covered her mouth with her hands.
Su Jun saw her movements out of the corner of his eye, frowned and said worriedly: "Rou'er, what's wrong with you?" He also put down his chopsticks, and everyone at the table also looked over.
Lin Murou's face turned red. This was really embarrassing. Ye Mingyan and Gu Hanyue had an idea, but they were afraid of disappointing them and did not dare to speak out.
Su Zhenzhen has been active in the world of vernacular novels for many years. She smiled and asked: "Sister-in-law, have you checked your pulse recently? Maybe you caught a cold." There is a 99% chance that she is pregnant.
Su Jun also asked her: "Do you want to ask the court doctor to take a look?" Lin Murou remembered that she hadn't had her period in over a month due to the New Year's Eve. She felt hopeful and said, "Okay."
After taking the pulse, the court physician reported back: "Congratulations, Master and Madam, congratulations to the eldest young master and his wife. The eldest young master and his wife are two months pregnant." He diagnosed a pregnancy at the beginning of the new year, and he received another reward.
Their Su Mansion is still the best. There are no dirty things like those in other mansions, and his job as a mansion doctor is not a very high-risk job.
Su Jun was so happy that he was stunned on the spot, and so was Lin Murou. It was Su Qiyang who spoke first: "Okay, reward." The palace doctor was about to be taken away by the housekeeper to receive the reward.
At this time, Su Jun came back to his senses and said, "Wait, the eldest young lady worked hard before the New Year. Is it harmful to her health?" The court doctor said calmly, "Young Master, the eldest young lady is in good health. She was not tired before, but she can't work too hard after she became pregnant." Seeing that the eldest young master and the eldest young lady didn't say anything, the court doctor followed the housekeeper to collect the reward silver.
Seeing that Lin Murou and Su Jun were so happy that they didn't know what to do, Su Zhenzhen and the others joked, "Sister-in-law has finally got what she wanted. She doesn't have to cry secretly with brother anymore." She knew everything.
Lin Murou's face turned red, and she hid behind Su Jun, not daring to look at everyone's eyes.
Su Jun was helpless, "Zhenzhen, your sister-in-law is shy, don't tease her." He was reluctant to talk about his sister.
At this time, Gu Hanyue was thinking, "Mom, my sister-in-law and I are both pregnant. Would you mind taking care of us in the later stages?" She smiled sweetly.
Ye Mingyan couldn't help but laugh. Other families fought tooth and nail for the power to manage the household, but their Su family lived in harmony. "Okay, mother will help you manage the household for a year or two for the sake of my grandchildren, no more." She didn't like to manage the household either, so Ye Mingyan suspected that Zhenzhen was like her.
Then the three little ones came again. They were now very skilled at walking. They were dressed plumply and were put down at the door by the nanny. They walked to the dining table hand in hand.
They all stretched out three pairs of white and chubby little arms, "Aunt, Uncle, Happy New Year, I want a hug~" without even looking at their biological parents.
