It was only after Qing Lingyi followed Cheng Yang back to the General's Mansion that she learned that Qing Yan broke into Hanguang Palace and slapped everyone for her.
Mrs. Xue praised this very much, "We in Daliang lack such talents."
Qing Lingyi was a little worried.
By doing so, he offended the emperor and the Xie family. They may no longer think about how to marry Qing Lingyi every day, but they can't guarantee that they won't use tricks elsewhere.
"Yeah, don't worry."
Cheng Yang leaned close to her ear and lowered his voice, "I'm here."
The old lady laughed loudly and said: "It just so happens that Lingyi comes back today, so I will open a new jar of Qiulubai to celebrate."
Cheng Yang said honestly: "Mom, um, you can't drink anymore."
"Why can't you drink it?"
"Because um, um, you're pregnant with my child." Cheng Yang held his head high when he said this, feeling very proud.
Qing Lingyi couldn't help but glare at him. Why did he say it so early? She hadn't even sat firmly in the womb yet.
After being stunned for a moment, Mrs. Xue jumped up from her chair with joy, "Hmm, you're pregnant?!"
Qing Lingyi smiled helplessly, "Yes."
"Okay, good. That's a good thing."
Old Mrs. Xue paced back and forth and told Cheng Yang, "Arrange more capable attendants and maids to take care of your daily life. You must be careful about what you eat, use, and drink. And you, you are a rough man, If your movements are neither light nor heavy, you might bump into Ling Yi. You'd better stay away from Ling Yi."
Cheng Yang nodded every time he heard the first few sentences.
The last one, he was very innocent, "Mother, I am always gentle, considerate and careful to Lingyi, and I will not bump into her."
Mrs. Xue just wanted to ask, if you were really gentle, would people be so afraid of you before?
If you were really considerate, would your mother be so unkind to you?
When he opens his mouth, he starts to babble.
"Mother."
Fortunately, Qing Lingyi spoke in time, "Don't be too nervous."
Mrs. Xue looked at her.
Qing Lingyi smiled softly and said, "I would be sad if the general really stayed away from me."
Mrs. Xue sighed.
Cheng Yang grinned. As expected, he still loved him the most in the world.
"You kid, just have fun marrying such a good wife!" Old Mrs. Xue gave Cheng Yang a gouging look.
"I know. I will." Cheng Yang smiled broadly and held Qing Lingyi's hand.
Return to Yanshanju.
Qing Lingyi was placed on the pear blossom couch by Cheng Yang. He opened his mouth and asked, "Hmm, are you hungry? Do you want to eat?"
Qing Lingyi was really a little hungry, so she nodded: "I want to eat fish soup."
Cheng Yang didn't even think about it, "Okay, I'll do it for you."
Then he asked, "While you're waiting for me, would you like to read a book for a while?"
Qing Lingyi thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
"How about "Tinglin Poetry Collection"?"
"Can."
Cheng Yang brought the book.
After settling in, he walked out.
When I went out, I met three children from a married family coming over.
"Uncle."
Cheng Jun took the lead and said the first sentence, "We heard that aunt is back. Where is she?"
Cheng Yang raised his eyebrows, "How did you know your aunt was pregnant?"
Cheng Jun was startled.
Cheng Zheng made a "wow" gesture on his lips and said sincerely: "Uncle, you are so arrogant."
Cheng Yang accepted this conclusion calmly.
"Is aunt in the house?" Cheng Jun asked.
As soon as Cheng Yang said yes, the three children walked into the house.
"You all take it easy and don't make trouble with her, or I won't let you go!" Cheng Yang threatened.
"I know, I know." Cheng Zheng waved his hand without looking back.
Indoor.
Qing Lingyi found the place where he saw it last time. He didn't read a few words before he heard a sound.
"Auntie!"
"Auntie!"
"Mother!!"
Qing Lingyi put down the book, raised his head, and smiled broadly, "Why are you here?"
Cheng Jun replied: "We heard that you were back, so we asked Mr. Zuo for leave and came to see you."
Cheng Zheng added: "We have performed very well these days, and Mr. Zuo praised us all the time."
Cheng Anle trotted to the bed, originally wanting to pounce on her mother out of habit.
But she remembered what her father said that her mother was pregnant, so she didn't dare to act recklessly.
"Our little Anle has lost weight."
Qing Lingyi spoke with emotion and took the initiative to open her arms, "Come, mother, give me a hug."
Cheng Anle raised his little head and said, "Can I hug you?"
"Why not?"
"Because dad said mom was pregnant and told us not to make trouble with you." Cheng Anle said truthfully.
Qing Lingyi laughed angrily.
Why did Chengyang even tell the children?
Looking into Cheng Anle's clear eyes, Qing Lingyi said warmly: "It's okay to give me a hug. It's been a long time since I hugged you. Don't you want to give me a hug?"
"I think--"
Cheng Anle couldn't care about anything else and threw himself into Qing Lingyi's arms.
The mother and daughter hugged quietly for a while.
Cheng Anle raised his head, his face flushed, and asked: "Mom, do you think he will be a younger brother or a younger sister?"
"I don't know either," Qing Lingyi asked with a smile, "What about you, Xiao Anle, do you prefer a younger brother or a younger sister?"
"I like them all," Cheng Anle said.
"I like them both too." Qing Lingyi thinks that both sons and daughters are good.
"But, mother."
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Anle hesitated for a moment, then plucked up the courage and asked, "Will you stop hugging me after you have younger brothers and sisters?"
Qing Lingyi's heart was soft and she hugged her a little closer, "Of course I will still hug you."
Cheng Anle nodded obediently, finally relieved.
the other side.
Wu Liang received the latest news and hurriedly reported it to Cheng Yang. When I asked, I learned that the general was in the kitchen.
Wu Liang hurried in immediately, stepped in, and saw the tough man who always looked majestic to the outside world rolled up his sleeves, hummed an unknown ditty, and made fish soup, leaving behind an extremely virtuous figure.
Wu Liang suspected for a moment that he was in the wrong place.
He took a step back and stepped in again.
Cheng Yang was still humming an unknown tune and making fish soup.
Wu Liang:......
He finally accepted this reality, cleared his throat, and said, "General..."
Cheng Yang turned his head and raised his eyebrows, "You also know that Madam is pregnant?"
Wu Liang:?
Wu Liang's pupils suddenly dilated in surprise: "Madam is pregnant?!"
Cheng Yang nodded, "Yes, mine."
Wu Liang beamed with joy, "This is such a happy event! Really, great!"
Cheng Yang snorted and said, "Why are you so happy? She is my wife and she is pregnant with my child."
Wu Liang had already gotten used to it, he chuckled and scratched his head.
After a moment's delay, Wu Liang finally remembered the business and said, "That's right, General."
"Um?"
"I have something important to report."
