In the evening, Meng Jinyao came back from the main room.

As soon as she entered the house, Meng Jinyao saw Gu Jingxi. She was happy and walked over quickly. She hadn't seen him for four days. Before leaving, she just said that she needed to go out of the city to investigate some things.

She said with a smile: "My husband is back."

Gu Jingxi nodded lightly: "Well, I just came back. I entered the house with the front foot, and you arrived with the back foot."

Meng Jinyao looked at him and saw that he looked tired. He must have been very tired these past few days, so she asked: "Husband, do you want to take a bath first or eat first?"

Gu Jingxi guessed that she hadn't eaten at this time. If she took a shower first, she would definitely wait for him hungry, so he replied: "It's just dinner time, let's eat first."

Meng Jinyao responded and immediately went to tell the maid to prepare the meal.

While eating, Meng Jinyao took the initiative and said, "Husband, our family has a new member."

Gu Jingxi stopped picking up the food and asked with a smile, "Xiu Hong is engaged? This year, he is eighteen, so it's time to get engaged."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao glared at him and said, "I'm not talking about him. Even if he gets engaged, it will take some time to add more people. What I'm talking about now is the one from the big house. Xiuyuan's wife gave birth this afternoon."

Gu Jingxi was stunned. He calculated the days and found out that Xiuyuan's wife should give birth this month, so she asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

Meng Jinyao replied: "It's a boy. The little guy is so strong and has a loud voice. His mother went to see him just now."

Gu Jingxi nodded: "Mother should like it, right?"

Meng Jinyao smiled and said, "Mother liked it very much and even hugged the child."

She is a tolerant mother-in-law. Even though her mother-in-law had problems with the two concubine's aunts, she did not get angry at the two concubine. She never did anything to the two concubine. Now that the concubine has a eldest grandson, the mother-in-law She also likes her unrelated great-grandson very much, which shows that her mother-in-law likes children very much.

Gu Jingxi said "hmm" and asked again: "What's the child's name?"

Meng Jinyao replied: "The child's nickname has been given to me a long time ago. When the boy comes to their generation, he will be named Yun, and his name will be Gu Yunxin."

After hearing this, Gu Jingxi nodded lightly and without asking any further questions, went to take a shower and change clothes after dinner.

Late at night.

Gu Jingxi looked at the girl in his arms and smiled happily. He could finally have a good sleep tonight. He had gotten used to having her by his side over the past year. He had been outside for the past few days and without her when he was sleeping, he always felt like there was something missing. .

Meng Jinyao asked: "Husband, you shouldn't have to go out again tomorrow, right?"

Gu Jingxi replied: "The case has been closed. There is no need to go out to investigate anymore. You only need to work at the Dali Temple Yamen tomorrow." As he spoke, he lowered his head and rubbed his forehead with hers, "Have Ayao missed me these days? ?”

Meng Jinyao said frankly: "I do. Do you miss me, husband?"

Gu Jingxi didn't reply, lowered his head and kissed her, telling her with his actions whether she wanted him or not.

A healthy and strong young man was born in the Hou family. The eldest family was very happy, and Mrs. Gu was also happy. She liked children as she got older. Even if she was not related by blood, she was happy to see the child.

In the second room, Gu Xiuhong faced another urge to get married from his mother.

Mrs. Chen looked at other people's little grandsons with envy in her heart. When she saw her eighteen-year-old son who had not yet been engaged, his nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes. He didn't like it no matter how he looked at it. She said, "Xiu Hong, look at you." My eldest brother is only one year older than you, and now you have your eldest son, why don't you get engaged first?"

Gu Xiuhong held a book in his hand, without looking away from the book, and replied: "Mother, can such things be compared?"

Chen asked back: "Why can't we compare?"

Gu Xiuhong replied obediently: "There are men who become fathers at the age of thirteen, and they already have several children at the age of eighteen. Why didn't you marry me a daughter-in-law and give me a few wives and concubines when I was thirteen?" , let me spread my branches and leaves?"

Chen: "..."

Seeing that his mother was frustrated, Gu Xiuhong put down his book and said warmly: "Mom, the results of the examination have not been released yet. I have no intention of getting married. I will wait until the results of the examination are released. If there is a chance to be listed, enter the palace examination, and then find an official position before considering it." marriage."

Chen asked: "What if I fail the exam?"

Gu Xiuhong replied: "If you fail the examination, then continue studying hard and try to get on the examination list in three years. During the study period, you have no intention of having sex. If you marry, you will neglect other girls, so I just won't marry for the time being." Well, mother doesn’t have to worry about her son for the time being.”

His attitude was firm and his tone was firm. He had made up his mind and would not consider marriage until he was named on the gold list.

When Mrs. Chen saw her son like this, she sighed, hoping that her son would be able to go to high school this year, otherwise he would really have to wait another three years. When her son was fourteen or fifteen years old, she was afraid that her beauty would delay her studies. Even the maids who served her son were picky about their appearance. Her son also followed the rules and did not touch the maids. He only read books about saints and sages, and even the maids in the same room did not touch them. Received. Being so self-disciplined makes her happy to be a mother, but she also has moments of worry.

Gu Xiuhong glanced at his mother and said, "If mother has nothing else to do, please go back first. My son will continue to read."

Mrs. Chen said helplessly: "You're a nerd, that's all. If you don't want to marry me, I won't marry you."

As the first great-grandson of the Hou family, Gu Yunxin invited many relatives and friends to his third party.

There were also people from the Yongchang Mansion this time, but only Meng Dongyuan came. Mrs. Meng did not come. Meng Chengzhang who was studying at Lingshan Academy did not come. Meng Chengxing and Meng Jinyu who were still paying filial piety to the Sun family could not come to the banquet. Their sisters The younger brother has to observe mourning for his mother for one year, and the period of mourning does not end until September.

Meng Jinyu got her haircut in May this year. Because of her filial piety, her haircut ceremony cannot be done. It depends on whether the Meng family will reissue it for her after the filial piety period is over. If not, there will be no gift for her haircut ceremony.

The second uncle's family came together with Gu Xuanling.

Wu Anbo's husband and wife, Wu Anbo's son and Gu Xuanyi also came to Wu'anbo's house.

Mrs. Zhang saw her daughter smiling and looking in high spirits. It seemed that Xuan Yi had not been embarrassed after returning to her husband's house. Moreover, her mother-in-law's attitude towards Xuan Yi was also very gentle. She was relieved for the most part. .

When she found an opportunity to talk to her daughter about herself, Mrs. Zhang still had to ask her daughter personally to confirm: "Xuan Yi, after you returned to Wu Anbo's house, they didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

Gu Xuanyi shook her head with a smile: "They didn't make things difficult for me, and my mother-in-law's attitude towards me was much better. Even when I met my mother-in-law the day I returned, she didn't scold me and was very gentle to me."

Although her mother-in-law continued to set rules for her, and she was not exempt from the morning and dusk routines. She would also be asked to do things like peeling walnuts, peeling peanuts, and peeling melon seeds. However, her mother-in-law treated her gently, and she no longer had that There was a strong sense of oppression, and she felt less dissatisfied when doing these things, making her feel like she was finally recognized by her mother-in-law.
