The baby is all there, the princess is still in the routine

Ning Changle woke up again, in a simple and cozy room.The mattress is clean and tidy, with a faint fragrance of saponins, and children's colorful windmills and puppet monkeys are hung on the wall, orderly in chaos.

The proprietress of the restaurant was guarding his bedside, bowing her head and earnestly embroidering mandarin duck pillow covers.The workmanship is poor, it looks like a water duck.In just a short while, the needle was pricked five or six times, and the proprietress was so painful that tears filled her eyes.

Ning Changle smiled unconsciously, thinking that the proprietress is a bit cute.

"you're awake!"

The proprietress looked at Ning Changle on the bed, she had a natural aura of nobility, and her eyebrows looked like a fairy in the sky.

Ning Changle nodded and said softly, "Thank you."

The proprietress casually threw the embroidery into the bamboo basket, and said with a smile, "Just call me Wanniang. What's your name, sir?"

Wanniang... His mother who died young was also called Wanniang.

Ning Changle pursed her lips, and shouted unskillfully, "Wan... Wanniang. Just call me Changle."

"Okay. Master Changle." Wanniang had a round face, round eyes, and a naturally approachable smile.

Wan Niang whispered, "Master Changle, you're going to scare me to death. So many people die suddenly, I'm afraid you'll die too. Fortunately, you're fine."

"Those people..." Ning Changle asked hesitantly.

It seems that Wanniang didn't realize that she was the one who poisoned her, but she kept herself as a survivor.

Wanniang sniffed and said in a crying voice: "I really don't know why they died? I really didn't kill them. There is a doll in my family who can't go to see the official. So I dragged them all to It was buried in the woods. If Mr. Changle wants revenge, I will recognize Wanniang too. It’s just a pity that my five-year-old baby... woo woo woo woo..."

As we talked, big teardrops rolled down, like pear blossoms with rain, so pitiful.

Mingming looks very timid, but he is bold and careful when doing things, and knows how to destroy corpses and wipe out traces.

Ning Changle really didn't know what to say, so he coaxed helplessly: "Wanniang, I was tied up by them at that time. I am not with them at all, and they are not good people."

Wanniang took out her embroidered handkerchief and blew her nose, speaking Wu Nong's soft words, and asked softly, "Really?"

"Really. They are actually... actually robbers. I am a wealthy businessman in Lin'an Mansion. They hijacked me and wanted to blackmail my family."

Ning Changle opened his mouth to lie.

Wanniang saw that Ning Changle was dressed luxuriously, and he sold five thousand silver bills. He really looked like a wealthy businessman.

Thinking of the silver, Wanniang stood up abruptly, and returned the banknotes plus the broken silver to Ning Changle.

"This is your money. I spent a dozen taels to help you find a doctor. It's okay, it's okay. The child is fine."

"No, you saved my life, the money is right to be life-saving money, please be sure to accept it, and treat it as a blessing for the child... Child? What, what child!"

Ning Changle suddenly stopped.

"You're pregnant. Don't you know it? The baby is more than two months old, and the fetal rate is unstable. You almost lost it. You can't move around during this time, and you need to rest." Wanniang said with a little reproach.At first glance, he was a careless father who didn't even realize that he was pregnant.

Ning Changle's first reaction was not surprise, but fright.

Seeing that Ning Changle's face was frighteningly pale, Wanniang didn't see any joy, so her mind turned a thousand times.Your husband is dead?Pregnant before marriage?

In the end, she sighed, and Wanniang patted Ning Changle on the shoulder sympathetically, and said earnestly: "The most important thing in life is to relax. Things have already happened, so let's figure out how to take the next step."

Ning Changle couldn't laugh or cry when he was interrupted by this, so he had to explain: "My husband treats me very well. I just never thought that I would be a father, and I can't be a good father..."

"It's easy to handle. You are now a father. If you can't be a good father, you will understand it in front of you." Wanniang comforted Ning Changle, who thought that Ning Changle was confused and flustered as a new father.

When Ning Changle was told this, he felt a little relieved.Things have already happened, and he is not a person who is too entangled, so just let nature take its course.

"Master Changle, why are you up?"

Wanniang is cooking stewed pork in the yard. The thick sauce-colored marinade wraps the duck skeleton, duck neck, duck head and other duck products. Mist rises from the gurgling, and the fragrance lingers throughout the yard.

Ning Changle said with a smile: "It's uncomfortable to lie down, get up and walk."

He has been lying in bed for three days, and he is a little worried about Lin'an's situation.

Wanniang wiped her hands and brought a bowl of oily chicken soup from the kitchen. The chicken was stewed so soft that it looked very delicious.

"It's made of black-bone chicken, it nourishes your body, your body is weak now."

Ning Changle shook his head and declined Wanniang's kindness: "I never drink chicken soup."

Wanniang said with some embarrassment: "Is the chicken porridge okay? I only made chicken porridge and chicken soup."

Ning Changle's morning sickness reaction was strong, and she couldn't eat the lo mei.

"Thank you Wanniang." Ning Changle nodded.

Wanniang called out: "Little Danzi."

The five-year-old milk baby and Wanniang looked three points alike, round and whirring, rushing over to hug Ning Changle like a cannonball.

"Brother Changle, you're awake, give me chicken soup, give me a drink. I've been hungry all morning."

Wanniang was startled, and dragged the baby over: "You are reckless, what if you hurt the baby?"

Ning Changle touched Danzi's soft lanugo, and said gently, "It's all right."

Wanniang handed the chicken soup to Naiwa, and another bowl of chicken porridge for Ning Changle.Sitting together, one big and one small, eat pickles and eat breakfast.

"Master, pay attention to your body, walk around nearby, don't run around."

Wan Niang asked worriedly.

Ning Changle nodded, and led Xiaodanzi out the door.

This is a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. The rivers are criss-crossing. There is a green river outside the door. Ships, large and small, arrive on the shore. Seafood, meat, fruits and vegetables, toys, etc. are displayed on the boat. Everything you expect, boatmen He hawked in a dialect that Ning Changle could not understand, with a tone of musical melody.

Jiangsu and Zhejiang are his hometown, but Ning Changle has to admit that he no longer belongs to this hometown.

The narrow road paved with bluestones, houses on one side, and embankment on the other, can only be used for people to walk. If you want to buy something, you need to stop on the shore and bend down to pick the goods on the boat. Some people simply rent a small boat and wander around the floating market.

"Brother Changle, where are you going?"

Danzi held one of Ning Changle's fingers with her small hand, and grandma said loudly, "Mother said, you can't walk around, pay attention to the baby."

Ning Changle asked: "Little Danzi, do you know where there is a place to write and send letters?"

His current physical condition does not allow him to hurry, and he doesn't know how anxious Jiu'an and the others are.Ning Changle wanted to send a letter to report his safety.

"I know, I know. My father is doing business in the city, and my mother often goes to Lu Xiucai's and asks him to help write letters. Then let the next door...well, Uncle Wang send a letter to my father in the city. You want Do you want to go to Lu Xiucai's house? I know the way."

Xiaodanzi patted her chest proudly. She followed her mother back and forth on that road many times, and she remembered it very clearly.

Ning Changle shook his head.What he wanted to send off was not in the city, but in Lin'an, hundreds of miles away, and he had to ask Wanniang if there was any businessman in Lin'an who could help deliver the message.

Ning Changle knew that this probability was extremely small.The head of the Weidu and Li Qiyue fought in Lin'an for more than a month, probably no businessman would choose to go to Lin'an at this time.

"Candied haws! Candied haws! Brother Changle, I want to eat! I want to eat!" Xiaodanzi said excitedly, shaking Ning Changle's hand.

Who didn't have a bunch of candied haws in childhood?Although he didn't have it when he was young.

Ning Changle smiled and said with a smile: "How much do you want to eat?"

Xiaodanzi rested his hand on his little chin, his little round face thought about it for a moment, and said uncertainly, "You want all of them?"

Ning Changle: "Then I want them all."

"Wow--"

Xiaodanzi held a bunch of bright red candied haws wrapped in crystal syrup in one hand, raised his head with shining eyes, and Ning Changle carried a straw stick full of candied haws strings on his shoulder.

On the long and narrow bluestone road, pedestrians gave way one after another, looking at Ning Changle with a little surprise.Ning Changle is well-dressed and handsome. No matter how you look at it, he should be a handsome nobleman, but he is carrying candied haws, which is quite attractive.

The two walked sideways home.

Wanniang blurted out: "Have you robbed?"

"Bought it! Brother Changle bought it!" Xiaodanzi jumped up and down happily, circling around Wanniang.

Ning Changle took out a bunch of candied haws and handed them to Wanniang. While picking up the candied haws, Wanniang said with a sad face, "Oh, I can't finish eating so much."

That's right, the teeth of the three of them are about to be acidified, and most of them are still unresolved.

Fortunately, Wanniang is exquisite in craftsmanship, crushing the candied haws and making them into hawthorn cakes.Sweet and sour, glutinous and glutinous, and easy to preserve.Ning Changle is pregnant with acid, which happens to be a snack.

Wanniang asked around for help, and there really were no businessmen in the small county who went to Lin'an.

"Master Changle, don't worry. My man will come back from the city in ten days. There are many people in the city, so let him ask you when the time comes." Wanniang comforted her.

Xiao Danzi was very happy when he heard that Daddy was back: "Daddy is coming back, that's great, I haven't seen Daddy for a long time."

When mentioning her husband, Wanniang's face showed a little girlish shyness.

Ning Changle lived for many days and understood something.Wanniang and her husband, childhood sweethearts, were engaged to get married early, and their relationship is deep.

Wanniang's husband sells seafood in the city and only returns home two or three times a year.Wanniang took care of the children at home, opened a small restaurant to subsidize the family, and lived a simple and busy life.

Ning Changle nodded to express his gratitude.

In this small town far away from right and wrong, he felt an unprecedented tranquility. He simply forgot all the troubles for a while, and only regarded himself as an ordinary person.

He took Xiaodanzi to fish, painted sugar figurines, bought sweet potatoes, and looted all the delicious and fun things in the river market.

Seeing the two of them coming back with a bunch of painted clay dolls, Wanniang said helplessly, "Young Master Changle, you will spoil the child like this. You must be a father who spoils the child too much."

Ning Changle smiled and said, "The child's other father will teach him well."

Wanniang pursed her lips and smiled softly: "Master Changle must love his husband very much, so that others would envy him."

"No, no!" Ning Changle blushed and denied.

"Speaking of someone you like, your eyes can't fool you. Your eyes tell me that you like your husband very much." Wanniang joked.

Ning Changle thought to himself that someone would not hear it anyway, so he generously admitted: "I like it very much."
