Chapter 666: Chapter 327 Pregnant Again_3
Pan Yue couldn’t bear to part with her daughter, and she felt sorry for Jinwa who might have lost her mother, torn by contradiction, she once again wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
Qian Yixiu hurriedly comforted her, "Mother, now that you have another baby, you mustn’t cry at every turn..." After a whole basketful of kind words, she finally soothed her.
After calming her mother down, she was dragged by Jingjing and Mingming to tell stories.
The two little ones hadn’t seen their sister for several days and showed no sign of sleepiness even though it was time for their nap. Thinking about how long she would be separated from them again, Qian Yixiu took them to the beauty couch near the north window and began telling stories.
"Little Rabbit be Good," "Chang’e Fly to the Moon," "Jingwei Fills the Sea," from ancient to modern times, the stories were told countless times, yet the two little ones could never get enough.
However, that little rascal Pearl Kid always liked to cause trouble. After listening to "Little Rabbit," he would mutter softly, "Childish."
"Eh, was that Brother talking just now? The voice doesn’t sound right," Jingjing, with sharp ears, heard it.
Mingming shook her head, "Brother didn’t say anything just now."
Qian Yixiu patted her chest and chuckled, "Hmm, Sister didn’t hear anything either, Jingjing must have heard wrong."
After the story of "Chang’e Fly to the Moon," Pearl Kid softly added another comment, "Nonsense, it’s not like that at all."
Jingjing heard it again and asked, "Who’s talking again?"
Mingming said innocently, "Apart from Sister and little Sister, I didn’t hear anyone else talking."
Qian Yixiu placed her hand on her chest and laughed, "Sister didn’t hear it either."
Jingjing, with her bewildering big eyes, thought for a while and finally figured it out. She kicked her little legs and giggled, "Jingjing knows now, it must be the baby brother in Mother’s belly who is talking. His voice is so soft that only Jingjing can hear it."
Eagerly, Mingming nodded and said, "Yes, for sure, brother also likes listening to Sister’s stories."
Qian Yixiu also expressed her agreement, then covered the clamshell and told another story, and the two little ones started to feel a bit sleepy. She then had the Wet Nurse take them to rest.
Qian Yixiu then went to the main courtyard to chat with Qian Sangui and Lady Wu for a while.
Thinking of being separated from his granddaughter for so long, Qian Sangui’s eyes were constantly red. If there was danger in the Capital City, he did not know when they would be able to return, when he would see his children and granddaughter there again.
Lady Wu was unaware of Qian Sangui’s inner turmoil and thought Qian Yixiu was returning to the Capital City to comfort Jinwa. She smiled and said, "The older the head of the family gets, the more he cries. We’ll leave after the New Year, and in just over a month, we’ll see the granddaughter again. What’s there to cry about?"
Seeing this, Qian Yixiu hugged Qian Sangui’s arm and acted coquettishly. Lady Wu rebuked, "You’re due for a hairpin ceremony next year, and here you are still acting like a child."
Qian Yixiu rested her head on Qian Sangui’s shoulder and said, "Even if I get married and have children, I will still be Grandpa’s granddaughter."
Lady Wu slapped her lightly, reproaching, "My goodness, I’m embarrassed for you to even say such a thing. If you keep being so outspoken, see who dares to marry you in the future."
As dusk gathered, Old man Qian and Old woman Qian, along with the families of Qian Dagui and Qian Ergui, arrived at Guiyuan, bringing with them some meat, eggs, and mountain delicacies. They knew that Pan Yue was pregnant again and had come to congratulate her.
Lady Wang said with a smile, "We know you don’t lack these things, but it’s our gesture of goodwill."
Meat and eggs indeed were not scarce, but those wild things gathered from the mountains were still prized. Lady Wu expressed her thanks with a smile.
Qian Sangui invited them to stay for dinner and took the opportunity to say, "Manjiang’s wife has just become pregnant, and she can’t endure the fatigue of travel by boat and horse. Perhaps, the day of our return to the Capital City must be postponed." Qian Yixiu did not dare tell them that she was leaving tomorrow.
Upon hearing this, Old man Qian was greatly disappointed. But progeny was important, and he could only nod in agreement.
Lady Wang felt even more distressed in her heart, wondering when her Shan Wa would be able to study at Songpan Academy.
At night, Qian Yixiu made a pair of little shorts for Pearl Kid.
Zi Zhu thought they were made for the unborn child and laughed, "Miss, if you’re making them for the young master, they should be smaller. These shorts are clearly for a one-year-old child to wear."
Qian Yixiu just smiled and said nothing.
Before going to bed, the old woman carried the bathwater into the clean room and poured it into a large wooden tub. After sending everyone out, Qian Yixiu used a small wooden basin to scoop some water. After bathing herself, she let Pearl Kid and Sister Squirrel out to bathe them in the small wooden basin.
After sending Bai Zhu, who was on night duty, to the west wing, she put the two little creatures on the bed. Sister Squirrel slept on the inside, Pearl Kid in the middle, and she slept on the outer side.
She thought that she must find an excuse to bring Pearl Kid and Sister Squirrel out in the open in the future; sneaking around like this was too exhausting.
Pearl Kid and Sister Squirrel were particularly excited for their first time sleeping on a bed and made a fuss half the night.
Qian Yixiu felt as if she had just fallen asleep when Bai Zhu woke her up, "Miss, it’s time to get up, we have to start the journey early today."
