Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.

Wei Liangcai wanted to protect himself, but Tang Rong would not let him go so easily.

"Uncle, do you also think that my future is bleak?"

Wei Liangcai raised his eyes, "It's just a temporary gain or loss, don't worry too much, you are the prince of the Marquisate, no one can change your position, even if the second young master next door is outstanding, he is just your foil, and when you inherit the title, he will still look up to you."

"Although the second young master next door is gaining momentum, he can never surpass you. You can take advantage of this period of rest to think carefully about what to do after the New Year and how to do it. As the saying goes, one person cannot support the whole family. If the second young master does not do anything inappropriate to you, he will be your helper."

"If it really is him, you have to think of a permanent solution and prevent him from becoming a threat to you."

How could he just laugh off the hatred of having his wife stolen? This kind of hatred could not be resolved unless his nephew took drastic measures and made the person next door disappear.

"I should have helped you, but the new appointment from the court will come in three days at most. Your aunt and I will leave here on the third day of the New Year. We can't delay the trip as long as it takes."

The rejection was so obvious that Tang Rong could hardly hold back his smile. "It was so smooth because of my uncle's outstanding political reputation. I wonder what assignment he was assigned to do?"

Wei Liangcai said that it should be about the same as before. "I thought I could be promoted one level, but now it's difficult. If it weren't for your father's help, it wouldn't be so easy. I heard that your father-in-law has been back in Beijing for so many days and he hasn't assigned you any tasks yet?"

Tang Rong did not say anything bad about the Tao family, he just said that Mrs. Tao was seriously ill, "She will probably be sent out after the New Year."

After saying a few more words, Wei Liangcai got up and left. Tang Rong saw him to the door. As soon as the man left, the smile on his face disappeared and he clenched his fists nervously. He could no longer rely on the Wei family.

His eyes fell on Qiushi Courtyard, his expression dark and unclear.

A burst of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the night, and Aunt Yu started.

Tao Yiran, who got the news, was the first to rush to the courtyard of the two concubines. Soon Wang came as well. Even Xin An put on a cloak and went to see for a while. When he came back, he got into bed. "It looks like we have to wait until tomorrow morning."

Tang Mo said sourly, "He is still very lucky. He has children around him."

"Are you envious?"

“A little bit.”

Having offspring is a big deal, as it is the inheritance of one's bloodline. Moreover, he wants to have a child with Xin An. A child raised by Xin An should be very cute and will like him as a father.

"But we are not in a hurry. We will have a baby next year after we return from Huaijiang. We should be more careful these days. Tell Doctor Qin to be careful and not to hurt his body."

Xin An was a little surprised, "You know?"

Ever since Tang Mo said he would take her back to Huaijiang, she had been looking forward to it. She was also worried that she was pregnant and couldn't go, so she asked Qin Bo to prescribe a decoction for her to avoid it, but she didn't tell Tang Mo about it.

Tang Mo held her in his arms and said, "You can have the child anytime, but if you are pregnant, you can't go back to Huaijiang. If you are pregnant, you have to give birth, and the child will be small. There are more and more things to do, and you can't go back for ten or eight years."

Xin An was so moved by these words that her nose felt sore. "Don't say that. I can't bear to hear this now. I want to cry."

"Now that things are getting better, I'm not as tough as before."

Tang Mo's eyes were full of smiles, "I feel happy when I hear what you said. If you are still so tough and patient, I can only say that I am not good enough and I can't let you live a relaxed life."

"It seems I am still of some use."

Xin An covered his face and laughed. The snow from the sky fell down and the room was like spring. The two of them rarely went to study the booklet. They just lay side by side and talked. When they talked about something happy, they turned around and laughed face to face. The room was full of warmth and harmony.

I slept until dawn. The sky and the earth were dyed white after snowing all night. The people in the yard were busy sweeping the snow. Lailai stepped on the ladder and took the bamboo pole to clear the snow on the eaves. Rouqiu was having fun in the yard. A big ball of snow fell from the eaves and buried it directly. Then a dog's head came out from the snow pile and looked around blankly. The people who were busy sweeping the snow laughed when they saw it.

The fish tank was frozen, and the few fish raised by Xin An were swimming under the ice, which was interesting to watch.

"Madam, Aunt Yu hasn't given birth yet. The midwife said it might take another hour."

Nan Feng, who had just come back from asking for the news, was rubbing his hands because he was cold. Xin An turned around and said, "She hasn't given birth since last night. You didn't tell me the reason?"

"The midwife said that the first birth is more difficult. Now the midwife is pressing Aunt Yu's belly. The sound of her screaming in pain makes the eldest young lady tremble. She dared not stay for long to rest. Now Madam Wei is guarding there, sometimes directing the people below to work, and sometimes praying to the gods. She is very busy."

He was on guard against everyone he met, as if someone was going to harm Aunt Yu's child.

Xin An turned around and continued to look at her fish, and said, "Don't go and watch. When the baby is born, the neighbors will announce the good news."

Nanfeng said she had no time to go, as she had to go to General Wang's residence with Liu Chang and the steward of Wang's residence to check on the old soldiers. Xin An told her, "Check to see if there is enough charcoal. If it is too little, find a way to buy another batch. We have to make sure they survive this winter."

The winter in Beijing is really cold.

Nanfeng took the order and left, and Xin An also went out with Chunyang and Chunlu. She wanted to go to the Liao family to ask what should she bring to the army.

The heavy snow on the street had been mostly swept away, and the carriage was moving smoothly on the road. It arrived at the Liao family smoothly. Mrs. Liao, who had just finished her work, came forward to greet her with a smile on her face, "Are you cold? Come in and warm up."

When I came back to the Liao family, it was completely different from before. It was much quieter and the scenery had changed a bit.

There were flowers in the warm room where guests were entertained, the brazier was burning brightly, the warmth spread all over my body, the chrysanthemum tea was sweet and refreshing, "Sister Xu's tea fragrance."

"This tea was sent from my family. If you like, you can take some back. The house is always hot from burning charcoal. Drinking some chrysanthemum tea will make you feel much more comfortable. Is there anything you need today?"

Xin An put down his teacup and explained his purpose. Mrs. Liao smiled and said, "If it's convenient for you, bring him some more silver notes, five or ten taels. Bring more, he'll need them."

She said that the people under Liao Zhi were very poor. "Everyone worked hard to support his family, and all the military pay was sent back. He couldn't even afford to buy a pair of shoes for himself."

"The one in your family grew up in a honeypot. How could he have seen those people? It's inevitable that he would be filled with sympathy and want to be a money-giving boy."

Xin An laughed, "It seems Commander Liao has spent a lot of money."

Mrs. Liao shook her head helplessly, saying that at the end of the year, some old friends would come to visit. They said they were visiting, but in fact they were sad about the end of the year. "They all risked their lives to follow him, so how could he just sit there and do nothing?"

"I put some banknotes in his purse every day, but most of the time I come back with an empty purse. A few taels here and ten taels there add up to a lot of expenses. Fortunately, we opened a grocery store with good business, otherwise I would not have been able to make up for it."

Mrs. Liao couldn't stop laughing when talking about the grocery store. The business was so good that it was completely beyond her expectations.

"Fortunately, we have prepared enough goods, otherwise it would be too late to buy them during the New Year. You came just in time today. If it is convenient for you, I can take you somewhere."
