Jiangyu Mufeng

Chapter 38 Two Letters From Afar

After bringing Du Jianxing home, Du Jianfeng asked Mu Jiangyu to arrange Du Jianxing's residence, and then went to call his parents. confessed.

Du Jianxing returned home with Du Jianfeng and the others just like that, without anything, not even a set of clothes, so Mu Jiangyu just arranged for her to live in a wing room in the front yard, took her in and then Mujiangyu Road : "Xingxing, you will live here from now on. This room will be your room from now on. Tomorrow, your elder brother and I will go to the town to buy two sets of clothes and the things you need."

Du Jianxing lowered his head and whispered, "Sister-in-law, am I bothering you too much..."

"Xing Xing, what are you talking about? You will be our sister from now on, and we are a family." Mu Jiangyu said, then he touched his stomach and told Du Jianxing: "And you will soon Now that I am an aunt, my sister-in-law has a baby, and you are my sister-in-law."

Speaking of this, Du Jianxing laughed and said: "The baby of the elder brother and sister-in-law must be the cutest baby."

Mu Jiangyu was pleased by these words, and he patted Du Jianxing's head happily, fearing that she would be alone and thinking wildly, so he stayed and talked to her for a while, until Du Jianfeng brought Du Damin and He Xuelian over.

"Father, mother, the matter is just as I told you on the road, from now on Xing Xing will be the child of our family." Du Jianfeng said.

"Okay." He Xuelian said: "What you do is always right, the second and third child are too hateful, Xing Xing is still so young to play her idea."

After entering the room, there was a long silence, and Du Damin on the side spoke: "The second and third children have been spoiled by their mothers since they were young, and they are not so savage in a day or two. Naturally anxious, but I didn't expect them to be so extreme."

"Anyway, Xing Xing has already come here, and she will be our daughter in the future, and we will also break up with them. From now on, they can do whatever they want with the love of the Du family, and it has nothing to do with us." He Xuelian said.

"En." Du Damin nodded, asked some other things, and then went to see Du Jianxing, and then stopped.

It was getting late, Du Jianfeng seized the time to cook for Mu Jiangyu, took a walk in the house after eating, and then went to rest.

As time went by, Mu Jiangyu's belly became bigger and bigger, and he gradually began to have difficulty moving, with swollen legs and feet. Although there were many discomforts in his body, he was still happy in his heart, because Du Jianfeng would accompany him every day. By his side, he would pinch his legs and rub his feet, and would hold him and tell stories to him and the baby in his belly. He was loved all the time, so this bit of suffering was a sweet burden for him.

It was deep winter and the weather was cold, so Du Jianfeng wrapped Mu Jiangyu in a cotton cloak, like a walking quilt, very warm.

"Husband, Chinese New Year is coming soon." Mu Jiangyu said looking at the snow falling outside the window.

"Yes." Du Jianfeng handed Mu Jiangyu a piece of pastry, and asked him, "Does Xing Xing know how to learn Chinese characters today?"

"Yes, Xing Xing is very smart." Mu Jiangyu took the pastry and said.

Recently, Du Jianfeng has been arranging for Mu Jiangyu to teach Xingxing calligraphy, which can be regarded as giving Mu Jiangyu something to do so that he will not be bored, which is also good for the baby.

"Husband, why do I feel that my stomach is much bigger than when Uncle was pregnant?" Mu Jiangyu asked as he touched his stomach.

Du Jianfeng also discovered this matter, he said: "Maybe our baby is bigger?"

Mu Jiangyu said with a bitter face: "Isn't that Xiaopangpang? It's not good to be too fat, husband, why don't I eat less in the future?"

Du Jianfeng thought it was funny, and said: "As long as the child is healthy, you should eat as much as you want."

A thick layer of snow had piled up outside the window. Du Jianwen was on vacation at school, and after staying at his new home for a few days, he ran over to his brother's place to celebrate the New Year with his family.

After the snow stopped, Du Jianwen and Du Jianxing were in the snowman with Du Jianfeng and Mu Jiangyu watching, occasionally guiding them where they didn't do well.The New Year has arrived amidst the frolic.

This year is very lively. After the new year, Du Jianwen will go to the exam. If he passes the exam, he will be a scholar. Not long after the ranking is released, Mujiang Island will have a baby, so this year is very important for their family. That being said, it was an extraordinary year.

"Wenwen, you are 17 years old, I wish you a smooth pass and find me a younger sister-in-law." Du Jianfeng said with a smile.

"Hahaha brother, you are really good!" Du Jianwen didn't hold back, smiled, and said, "I study every day, so I don't have time to spend the time before and after the moon, and I will talk about life's major events after I get a good name in the exam."

Du Jianfeng nodded and said, "That's right, having ambitions is what a man should do!"

Just when several people were talking happily, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Du Jianfeng went out to see some people he didn't know.

"Who are they?" Du Jianfeng frowned and looked at the tall men in front of him. No matter how he looked at them, he didn't think these men were good-natured.Fortunately, they didn't come to make trouble, the leader took out two letters and a few bank notes from his bosom, and said, "Are you Du Jianfeng?"

"It's right here." Du Jianfeng said.

The man said: "This is sent to you from the capital."

As soon as Du Jianfeng mentioned the capital city, he thought of Jing Yi. No one would write letters and give him a bank note except him, but what kind of bank note was he giving for no reason?But doubts are questions, and the people in front of me may not be able to figure it out, let alone people coming from a long way, and it is not good to stop them outside the door in cold weather, so Du Jianfeng took the letter and tickets and said to them: "Several brothers You've worked hard at the desk, go in and sit down."

"No need, we'll wait for you in the town, the young master says you can write us a letter if you have something to say." The man said, "Let's leave first!"

Du Jianfeng and the others got on the horse and ran away. They didn't bother to stay with the guests, so they closed the door and went back.

"Husband, who is it?" Mu Jiangyu asked.

Du Jianfeng handed the letter in his hand to Mu Jiangyu, and said, "Look for yourself."

Mu Jiangyu opened it and looked, his face flushed with excitement, and said, "It's a letter from Huai'an!"

"Well, go to the room and look, it's cold outside." Du Jianfeng said.

"Okay!" Mu Jiangyu walked into the room and couldn't wait to read it. The content of the letter was not very long, but it was a pleasure to read.

Considering that Mu Jiangyu only knew characters, Huai'an wrote the letter as usual, which was simple and easy to understand.

"Xiaoyu: Zhan Xin'an.

Farewell to the capital, more than half a year later, how are you and your husband doing recently?After returning to the palace after the farewell, my husband and I miss you all the time. I want to tell you a piece of good news. I am four months pregnant. This time I hope it will be a daughter, and it is best to look like my husband.

You also have to hurry up to have a child. If there is a chance in the future, I hope we can meet again. The stir-fried dishes and pastries that your husband came up with are simply delicious. Because of these things, the concubines have been quieter and obsessed recently. So, it was a real surprise.

It is snowing in the capital, and it may take more than a month for your place to snow. Maybe when you read this letter, there will be snow in your place.Xiaoyu, you have to remember to miss me, and I will miss you from time to time.

Friend: Huai'an, in the capital. "

After reading the letter, Mu Jiangyu was happy but also a little melancholy. The distance between friends was too far away, so it was not easy to see each other. He also thought that Huai'an was also pregnant, and he was happy for him. After thinking about it, Mu Jiangyu wrote a letter. He wrote back and told Huai An in the letter that he was also pregnant. For some reason, his belly was very big and it was very inconvenient to move, but he was still very happy and waited for some small things.

In the end, he quietly told Huai'an that he hoped to be a boy, preferably looking like Du Jianfeng, so that he would be complete.

The letter from Jing Yi that Du Jianfeng got was even more concise and clear. Jing Yi greeted him, and then told him that stir-fry has attracted much attention in the capital. The ticket is the fee to join this stir-fry restaurant.

Seeing what Jing Yi said, Du Jianfeng also accepted the bank note, and wrote back to Jing Yi, expressing his greetings and thanks, took it to the town, gave some silver taels to the two messengers, and asked them to bring some money to Jing Yi Huai'an. This is the end of the food that you can't see in the palace.

Mu Jiangyu's belly was only six months pregnant, which was much older than ordinary people's six months. Du Jianfeng specially sent someone to ask a famous doctor in the county to take his pulse. The doctor was over sixty years old, and after taking the pulse , nodded and said: "Yes, you are a kind family, treat your husband well and raise him well, you can rest assured that your husband is pregnant with twins, so your belly will naturally be bigger, just pay more attention in normal times. "

Du Jianfeng was relieved when he heard this. He knew that there were some genetic factors involved in the birth of twins. Both he and Mu Jiangyu had twins in their family, so there was a high probability that Mu Jiangyu could conceive twins.

But this is a good thing after all, and Mu Jiangyu was also very happy. At night, he watched Du Jianfeng pinch his swollen legs, and said, "Husband, I am so happy! I heard someone say that the husband at home is pregnant I will take concubines or something during this period, and I won't take care of my husband, husband, you still treat me so well."

Du Jianfeng smiled and said: "What are you thinking about? In my hometown, if I really did this, I would be arrested and sent to jail. Even if I didn't go to jail, I would be scolded to death."

"Husband, your hometown is really good, you won't look down on us people." Mu Jiangyu said.

Du Jianfeng sighed, and said: "It's not entirely true. Even thousands of years later, there are still terrible discriminatory concepts, just like it is normal for others to take concubines. The views of each era are different. , We can’t ask others to do something, but at least we must be ourselves, make ourselves stronger, and protect our families and vulnerable groups.”

Mu Jiangyu seemed to understand, but asked again: "Then what did you do before you came here, my husband?"

"I have done many things." Du Jianfeng said: "I have studied, served as a soldier, defended my family, defended the country, practiced medicine and saved people, and finally sold food."

"Ah?" Mu Jiangyu was surprised: "You have done so many things, no wonder you are so good, you can do everything!"

"After all, I lived more than 30 years old." Du Jianfeng said.

Mu Jiangyu curled his lips and said, "Then have you ever been married and have children?"

Du Jianfeng thought it was funny, and said: "You can think of that aspect of everything, but it's true. After all, you are in your thirties, and you can have grandchildren here. Don't you think your mother gave birth to you at the age of 17? Now you are almost Nineteen, your mother is only 36. Don't worry, I have never been married before, and I only have children with you."

Mu Jiangyu became happy after hearing this, humming and chirping to climb over to kiss Du Jianfeng, but his body was too heavy, Du Jianfeng was a little amused seeing his funny appearance, so he leaned over and kissed him a few times before he was relieved.

Day by day, Du Jianwen took the exam in spring. During the exam, Du Jianfeng brought He Xuelian and Yuan Lijun to his own house to take care of Mu Jiangyu, and he accompanied Du Jianwen the whole time, and went to the county seat by the way. Collect the bills in the store, and help out.

Du Jianwen lived up to expectations and was admitted as a scholar with the third grade. Du Jianfeng was still very happy. This younger brother really made him proud and lived up to his expectations.The news that Du Jianwen was admitted as a scholar quickly spread in the village, and the villagers talked about it for a while, but the dilapidated door of the Du family was always closed.

Du Jianfeng asked Du Jianwen's plan, Du Jianwen thought for a while, and said: "Brother, I still want to continue my studies and pass the exam."

"Okay." Du Jianfeng said: "Just do it, brother will support you."

Du Jianwen didn't say any words of thanks, he knew that brothers didn't need to talk about it, he just took practical actions to repay his brother.

The location of Du Jianwen's study changed from the town to the county, and the time to come back was less, so Du Jianfeng asked Qi Xiao to take care of Du Jianwen so that he could study with peace of mind.

It was spring, and Du Jianfeng was finally able to plant the seeds he brought from Ake. The sunny land here is very good, and it will definitely bear fruit.

Du Jianfeng took care of these seeds very carefully, and he personally watched them break through the ground and germinate. Looking at this lush green land, Du Jianfeng was relieved. Seeing the gratifying growth, it will definitely be a good harvest.

In the early autumn, the harvest was about to be bumper, but at the same time, Mu Jiangyu was about to give birth.

Du Jianfeng invited the three midwives to the house several days in advance, and kept an eye on Mujiangyu's movements.

Late that night, around midnight, Du Jianfeng heard a slight noise, and immediately opened his eyes. After lighting the candle, he saw Mu Jiangyu covering his belly with sweat on his face. Du Jianfeng frowned and said, "Xiaoyu Don't be afraid, Husband will call Husband right now."

Husband had already prepared it long ago. As soon as Du Jianfeng knocked on the door, he knew that Mu Jiangyu was about to give birth. He immediately put on his clothes and came out, ordering people to boil hot water and other things in an orderly manner. The room I was in ran past.

Du Jianfeng didn't have so many taboos, he insisted on being with Mu Jiangyu. Mu Jiangyu was timid, and he would definitely be afraid of such a big thing as having a baby without him by his side. Well, a woman has to go to the gate of hell to give birth to a child, let alone Shuang'er.

However, to Du Jianfeng's surprise, Mu Jiangyu was unexpectedly strong during the delivery process. He just held Du Jianfeng's hand all the time, and only hummed when it hurt so much.

Tossing and tossing until the sky was dark, the night sky seemed to be pierced by the crying of the baby, the first ray of morning light shone in, and the two children were born safely.
