When Jiang Mingyue and Xie Yuan returned to the county, Xie Yuan became busy. He first met with Mr. Fu Yin as usual.

The governor was very polite and gave him a set of the Four Treasures of the Study, which Xie Yuan respectfully accepted, calling himself a junior throughout the process.

After coming out of Fu Yin's house, he posted another post to Jiang Shangshu the next day.

Unlike Mr. Fu Yin, Jiang Shangshu is a busy man. Xie Yuan originally thought that Jiang Shangshu would not see him, but unexpectedly he summoned him on October 18th.

Xie Yuan came to Shangshu Mansion and bowed respectfully to Jiang Shangshu.

Jiang Shangshu smiled and helped him up, and asked him how his master was doing.

When Xie Yuan heard this, he knew that Jiang Shangshu had completely known his details.

"Thank you for your concern. My tutor is doing very well these days."

Jiang Shangshu nodded and told Xie Yuan that Shen Mo had given him guidance and he was half of his senior brother.

Xie Yuan took advantage of the situation and called him senior brother.

One was a supporter of the juniors and had no airs, while the other was respectful and polite and could answer any question. The two chatted happily.

After Xie Yuan left, Jiang Shangshu suddenly asked.

"Is your wife from Yuanjiang Prefecture?"

Xie Yuan said respectfully: "Yes!"

The incident between him and his wife has been spread in Kyoto through Jiang Ping's hands, so it is normal for Jiang Shangshu to know about it.

"Yuanjiang Mansion is a good place!"

Xie Yuan took advantage of the situation and said: "Yes! I hope that one day I can go to Yuanjiang to practice for a few years."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shangshu's bright eyes quickly flashed with a dark light.

"With your talent and learning, you will surely be able to achieve what you want soon."

"Then let me borrow your blessing."

The two seemed to be just chatting, but they said nothing.

An hour later, Xie Yuan walked out of Shangshu Mansion, got into the carriage, and lowered the curtain.

Sure enough, none of these important officials in the court were simple, especially those who were highly valued by the Holy One. He still has a lot to learn from them.

In Qingshi Hutong, Jiang Mingyue saw that her husband was a little tired after he came back, so she gently massaged him.

"Didn't you have a good time chatting with Lord Shangshu?"

"No, we had a good chat, and I can feel that he appreciates me."

Xie Yuan touched his wife's hand and said warmly: "Just dealing with these people is a bit taxing."

He looked at the people in front of him and sighed: "It would be great if everyone was as understanding as you."

Jiang Mingyue: "..."

"Okay! How dare you call me stupid."

Jiang Mingyue reached out and scratched the man's tickle.

Xie Yuan responded with a smile on his lips, "I was wrong. Besides, in my heart, Madam is not stupid at all, and she is as wise as a fool."

Jiang Mingyue hummed.

"Just make me happy all day long."

Xie Yuan smiled and pulled his wife into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her red lips.

"This is not coaxing you, but my sincere words."

Xie Yuan paused and said, "I only have five days left on my vacation. You can ask Apple and the others to pack their things tomorrow."

Jiang Mingyue said 'hmm' and asked, "Don't you want to visit your friends in Wanping?"

"There are only a few people worth visiting, and I can visit them all in two days."

"I see."

The next day, after seeing her husband off, Jiang Mingyue packed up her things with Pingguo, Su Niang, and Aunt Gui.

The first person Xie Yuan visited was Zhou Chun. As he had expected, Zhou Chun failed the exam this year.

However, he was in pretty good condition and had completely adjusted. He was ready to return to private school and continue teaching. What Xie Yuan didn't expect was that he didn't plan to continue taking the exam.

But this is a good thing for him, because Zhou Chun is too indecisive, and this character is not suitable for being an official.

They had dinner outside at noon, during which Xie Yuan invited two more people, both of whom were from Wanping's side. All four of them knew each other, and when Luan Yi got married, all three of them helped.

During the meal, Xie Yuan carefully explained to the three of them his experiences in the general examination and palace examination.

Even though Zhou Chun didn't plan to take the exam again, he listened very carefully.

The four of them ate this meal for more than an hour. When Zhou Chun and the others left, they were beaming with joy.

Xie Yuan saw the three of them off. On the way home, he saw someone selling pomegranates and bought a few.

At Shenshi, Jiang Mingyue woke up from her nap, looked at a few pomegranates on the table and asked, "Master is back?"

Pingguo combed Madam's hair: "I came back half an hour ago and brought Madam some big, red pomegranates. Do you want to peel two of them?"

Pingguo said and quickly inserted the hairpin for Jiang Mingyue.

"it is good!"

Jiang Mingyue stood up with Apple's support and said, "I can just wash my face by myself."

Hearing this, Pingguo handed her the handkerchief that had been wetted beforehand, took two pomegranates and walked out.

After a while, Jiang Mingyue walked into the study carrying a bowl of ruby-like pomegranates, took some pomegranates and handed them to the man's mouth.

"Try to see if it tastes good."

Xie Yuan lowered his head and ate the pomegranate in his wife's palm and said, "It's very sweet."

"Oh! Then I have to try it."

Jiang Mingyue held the bowl in one hand, hugged the man's neck with the other, and pressed her red lips on his thin lips.

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment, then hugged his wife and deepened the kiss.

The two separated after a while, and Jiang Mingyue looked at the man with a smile as bright as a flower.

"Well, it is indeed very sweet!"

Xie Yuan breathed quickly, sat down with his wife in his arms, and looked at her round belly: "I'm going to give birth in more than a month."

Jiang Mingyue followed his gaze and glanced down, wondering why he suddenly mentioned this.

"Ok!"

"It's great. I just need to endure it for more than two months."

This time Jiang Mingyue immediately understood what he meant, and her face instantly turned red like an attractive apple.

Xie Yuan really couldn't hold it back and hugged his wife and kissed her hard for a while.

Feeling that his family heirloom was ready to go, Jiang Mingyue didn't dare to move.

Xie Yuan fed her pomegranates and said, "How about we go to Grandpa Lai's place for dinner tonight?"

Use this to distract yourself.

"Okay! I miss them too! By the way, I will give them the portraits I drew for them."

"It saves you a gift."

Jiang Mingyue heard this and said angrily: "If Grandpa Lai hears this, he will definitely roll his eyes at you."

She thought for a while and said, "Grandpa Lai likes to drink, so we can bring some of the wine you brewed. Grandma Lai likes to be pretty. I made some clothes for her some time ago, so I can bring her with me."

Xie Yuan didn't know that she had done so many things secretly.

"Don't use any more needles in the next period of time, and rest more."

"it is good!"

Jiang Mingyue doesn't plan to use any more acupuncture. Her hands have been a little swollen recently, and Grandma Gui said that if she doesn't get enough rest, her fingers will be prone to deformation in the future.

The two of them decided what they wanted to bring, packed it up, told Aunt Gui a few words, and then went out.

Zaolin Hutong is not far from the pier. Xie Yuan and Jiang Mingyue were not in a hurry and strolled there. However, what they did not expect was that Grandpa Lai already had guests here.
