Since the little General Shen had come to receive him, Wei Tengfei no longer needed to escort the General Shen to the capital. Like Ling Chaofeng, he had a heavy responsibility on him, and it was only the start of the new year.
It was unknown when Hanxi and Xiaowan would be reluctant to part, and Siyan was also reluctant to part with him. Xiaowan had promised her that in the future, she would bring her to the capital to see the fireworks.
First Princess, who had been depressed for the past few days, now had a bright smile on his face. He ran over happily and said, "Did you guys forget about our aunt?"
Only then did everyone remember about Princess and Bi Zhenye. The emperor ordered Ling Chaofeng to bring back a message, telling him to send Shen Qing back to the capital to catch up with the group.
After walking a distance, the three groups of people went their own ways. Xiaowan looked at her reluctantly on the carriage and smiled at her: "Evening, do you think you have a friend?"
Xiaowan asked happily: "Aunt, how did you know?"
Aunt Zhang held her cheek, and said with a smile: "Because I also had this day before, suddenly realizing, that I could still make friends."
Xiaowan thought about how Aunt Zhang had told him about her background and when she found the chance, she asked Ling Chaofeng in private if she knew and if it was true.
Ling Chaofeng said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if it's real or fake, Aunt will never come back, why should we investigate whether it's real or fake? Aunt told you to treat it as a joke, let's just treat it as a joke."
"I know." The Xiaowan said solemnly, "In any case, I think of Aunt as the same as a mother, as long as we can be happy together."
Ling Chaofeng looked down to see his wife's bulging stomach, and said: "This time, when we return home, don't go too far, or else your body will be unable to take it anymore. "If something happens to the child, you won't be blamed for my heartache, but you will definitely blame yourself for not protecting him properly."
"I will listen to you, but …" "Husband, you can't scare me anymore. If it's like this, you can at least tell me in advance." The Xiaowan said very seriously, "Don't mention that the emperor is angry, I am also very angry. I thought that something happened to you, I was extremely scared."
"I was wrong. Late, please don't be angry, okay?" Ling Chaofeng's forehead was pressed against the Xiaowan's forehead as he lovingly held her face. He couldn't forget the Xiaowan kneeling in front of the emperor, the young emperor really knew how to control the people's hearts, any punishment would not even compare to the Xiaowan kneeling. Thinking back at this moment, he was still frustrated and heartbroken.
"I'll remember. If you do something wrong next time, I won't forgive you. Tell me, how can you scare me?" Xiaowan pouted, her face filled with anger, but the happiness in her eyes had long betrayed her. To her, as long as her husband was safe and sound, everything was fine.
Because Xiaowan was pregnant, Ling Chaofeng and the others walked very slowly, and those who stayed in the tavern naturally took longer time to wait.
Since the first day he was a stranger, he had been able to recognize even some of the wild vegetables in the rear mountain. Between Little Qing and him, he was already as familiar as a friend that had been with Bi Zhenye for many years.
In the past few days, there had been guests who had come to the tavern. The Uncle Biao was in charge of cooking, Susu did odd jobs, and the Princess, who knew how to settle debts, became the owner's guest.
Susu gradually became more familiar with the Princess. When she talked about family matters, she was curious as to why the Princess would settle debts. When she heard that Susu had been in the capital for two years, Little Qing smiled and asked: "When you were in the capital, did you know my mother?"
Susu was slightly familiar with the situation, but she only knew that all the women in the Palace were envious of Prince Shen’s Mansion, that in order to love his wife, Master Shenwang did not take in concubines at home, and did not seek happiness outside.
Little Qing then laughed: "In a family, when mother doesn't care about matters, she will naturally have a capable daughter or daughter-in-law. Our family is all my business, and from the moment I started to study and write, I will account. "Ever since my mother had my help, she started to forget about everything else. Anyways, my father has spoilt her, so no one can say that she isn't."
Bi Zhenye listened at the side with a faint smile on his face. Little Qing inadvertently looked back, their four eyes meeting, and they both separated in panic.
Bi Zhenye coughed dryly, "Why has the emperor left for so long? There's no news either."
Little Qing replied softly, "Yes."
The two of them looked at each other again and laughed.
Little Pei dragged his kite over, wanting Bi Zhenye to take him to play. Bi Zhenye carried him up, wanting the little fellow to sit on his shoulder. But Little Pei's chubby weight was not light. Bi Zhenye's raised it high enough and with a sway of his center of gravity, Little Pei fell down as well.
Little Pei was almost sent flying and landed on the ground with a thud. This time, it was not light and the pain made him cry out loud, scaring Bi Zhenye out of his wits.
Little Qing and Susu carried the child up. Seeing that there was blood at the corner of his mouth, they opened it to check his teeth.
Uncle Biao came from the kitchen and upon hearing that he had fallen, he laughed out loud. He easily picked up his grandson, rubbed his head and said: "Man, just by falling twice, you grew up. Little Pei will not cry."
Bi Zhenye panicked as he stood there, his hands still trembling. If he really wanted to throw Little Pei out, he could only apologize with his life.
"Bringing a child is already like this. My family still has a daughter. His father was playing with his daughter and broke his forehead a few days ago." Susu comforted them, "Children grow up when they fall on the ground."
Bi Zhenye asked nervously, "What happened next?"
Susu looked at him, then looked at Princess, and laughed: "My dear grandmother beat me up with a broom, and chased after him through the entire yard, making me extremely happy."
Little Qing also laughed, but Bi Zhenye still kept on blaming himself. He hated himself for being raised in a jar of honey by his grandmother's mother, filled with soft bones, so much so that he couldn't even hold a little kid.
Susu went to look at Little Pei from the back. Only Little Qing and Bi Zhenye were left in the hall, so she walked over to his side and gently said: "Wait till Little Pei gets better, can we take him for a walk?"
Bi Zhenye was startled: "Go outside?"
Little Qing said: "Although we have been waiting for a long time, I think that royal brother and the others should have called us to leave already. I really like this place, but I don't know when they will come back again.
Bi Zhenye was quiet for a moment. His heart skipped a beat as he asked, "You want me to... "Take you there?"
Little Qing said generously: "Aren't you the only one here?"
Bi Zhenye nodded his head, he then walked around the house and said excitedly: "I will go prepare the carriage."
After a short while, Little Pei was brought out of the room, and the little guy's mouth was swollen. Other things didn't hinder him, but when he heard that he was able to go out and visit, he was already extremely happy.
He told them seriously that if his parents came back and saw him hurt, they would have to prove that they didn't mess around and run into him, or his father would punish him.
Little Qing laughed: My Manager Ling is exactly like my big brother, my nephew's character is extremely similar to Little Pei's. He usually likes to jump up and down at home, but my brother isn't afraid of him making trouble, nor is he afraid of him getting hurt. My brother said that if you can't even protect yourself, what qualifications do you have to mess around? "
Bi Zhenye supported them into the carriage as he personally drove the carriage. In his heart, he was thinking that the Prince Shen’s Mansion father and son were both great generals that could make his enemies tremble in fear, and how could such a mighty family possibly accept a soft son-in-law? He was truly unworthy of the Princess at all.
However, a gentle voice came out from behind him. He heard Shen Qing saying to Little Pei: "But Aunt likes gentle boys. Little Pei, what kind of man do you want to be in the future?"
Bi Zhenye's hand trembled, but he immediately pulled tightly on the reins, his heart becoming hotter and hotter. Could it be that Princess was saying these words to him on purpose?
The two adults brought the children and strolled around the few scenic spots in the Li Prefecture realm. When they were eating in a restaurant outside, the waiter thought that they were a family, and said to Shen Qing: "young lady is so lucky, to have given birth to such a cute, fat boy."
Shen Qing felt a little awkward, but no one tried to explain. She looked at her uncle, then at the Princess, and continued to eat.
On the way home, the tired brat fell asleep. Bi Zhenye cautiously drove the horse carriage forward, when Princess suddenly asked him from behind, "Young Noble Bi, are you cold? "It seems like there's a wind."
Bi Zhenye hurriedly said: "Not cold, just now I drank a mouthful of wine and it was still warm in my stomach."
However, Little Qing asked: "Do you still remember what happened that year?
