Parents are busy farming

Ye Zifen carefully placed the golden imperial edict on the incense table. After completing this series of actions, she took a deep breath, calmed herself, and walked towards where the Hong family was.

Just when the imperial edict arrived, the thoughtful Ye Zifen did not let the people of the Hong family show up.

She knew very well that human hearts were complicated, and she acted this way simply to prevent some people from having unnecessary thoughts.

Ye Zifen went to meet the women of the Hong family first, while the two men had already gone to see Zhang Gaoyi.

When Ye Zifen stepped into the room, the ladies of the Hong family had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as they saw her come in, everyone came forward and held her hands tightly, their eyes full of concern and anxiety, and they couldn't wait to ask: "Zifen, are you and the general okay? Are you injured?"

Ye Zifen quickly responded, "Don't worry, aunts and grandmothers, I'm fine. I just have some superficial injuries and will recover in a few days. As for General Zhang Gaoyi, he has woken up, but his injuries are serious. He still needs to stay in bed for a while, so he can't come out to greet grandmother and aunts for the time being. I hope you can forgive me."

Upon hearing this, Madam Hong quickly waved her hands and said, "It's okay, child. Your health is the most important thing. It's the most important thing to recover from your injuries first. By the way, I heard that it was Duke Chong who saved your uncle's lives this time? We must remember this kindness in our hearts!"

Ye Zifen smiled slightly and said softly, "Grandma, you are too kind. Protecting the emperor and the ministers is the duty of the Duke of Chongguo. It is only natural for him to do so. You don't need to take it too seriously."

However, Madam Hong shook her head gently and said earnestly: "Silly child, although that is true, he is a person of high position and power after all. How could he take care of our family like this for no reason? In the final analysis, it is because of your face! Take Yujie for example, he can have a promising future now, and it is because of your kindness that he teaches him wholeheartedly. We all know these things in our hearts, and we must not pretend not to know!"

Ye Zifen had expected this and knew they would react like this, so she cleverly changed the subject and asked Mrs. Hong Da and Mrs. Hong Er with a smile: "My two uncles must be exhausted after traveling all the way home. They must have a good rest. In addition, they should also drink some soup and water to nourish their bodies so that they can recover their vitality."

Madam Hong nodded slightly and replied, "I have already arranged this matter. We will be able to enjoy it as soon as we return home. My child, you must also take good care of yourself. Don't forget that you are still injured. When taking care of Duke Chongguo, you must not neglect to take care of yourself."

Ye Zifen chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Madam. Madam Qi is here to serve me! After she learned that I was injured, she spent the whole day trying to get me all kinds of supplements and nourishing me in various ways. In fact, this minor injury is not a big deal, but I am sorry to bother you for being so concerned about me."

At this time, Madam Hong II took over the conversation and said, "Zifen, you are still young and you have just married Duke Chongguo. You must take good care of your body so that it will be easier for you to have children in the future. As long as you take good care of your body, not only will you have a higher chance of getting pregnant, but you will also suffer less during childbirth."

Hearing this, Ye Zifen couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Only then did she realize how huge the difference was before and after marriage.

Before they got married, they worried about not wanting to get married; now that they are married, their concern immediately turns to getting pregnant and having children.

Just as Ye Zifen was about to speak, Old Madam Hong immediately echoed, "Your second aunt is absolutely right. You must take good care of your body and never risk your life like this again in the future."

Faced with this situation, Ye Zifen was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond. She could only nod repeatedly to show her agreement.

Fortunately, it was already late, and Aunt Qi came in at the right time and asked softly, "Princess, can we prepare dinner?"

Ye Zifen responded as if she had been pardoned: "Then let's eat."

When Ye Zifen fought bravely on the battlefield, she never had any fear; when she recalled the incident afterwards, she felt calm.

However, at this moment, everyone's care and concern made her feel timid and guilty.

After all, she has no intention of having children at the moment.

There are many issues that need to be dealt with urgently and the future situation is unpredictable. Under such circumstances, how dare they have children rashly?

Soon, everyone sat around the dining table and had lunch together.

During the dinner, Ye Zifen instructed Madam Qi to properly arrange the guest rooms, and after the meal, she invited the female members of the Hong family to go and rest.

The Hong family came to visit today, and I didn't need to think too much to know that they must have important matters to discuss.

After the meal, Ye Zifen planned to lead her grandfather and others to have a detailed talk with Zhang Gaoyi.

Ye Zifen stood at the door of the room and did not go in immediately.

She first called the servant who served Zhang Gaoyi and carefully instructed him to keep Zhang Gaoyi's clothes neat and clean.

The servant nodded repeatedly and started to work quickly.

Zhang Gaoyi, who was lying on the bed, although still weak, strongly demanded to sit up.

I saw him gritting his teeth, moving his body with great effort, and finally succeeded in sitting up against the head of the bed.

However, this action obviously consumed a lot of his physical strength. Not long after he sat down, he felt dizzy.

At this moment, Ye Zifen, who was worried, came in and saw this scene. She hurried forward and reached out to support the staggering Zhang Gaoyi.

She quickly picked up a soft quilt from the bedside and carefully placed it behind Zhang Gaoyi so that he could lean on it comfortably.

After everything was arranged, Ye Zifen turned around and walked to the door, gently opened it, and invited Old Master Hong and his party who had been waiting outside into the house.

When Zhang Gaoyi saw Old Master Hong and others coming in, he forced himself to cheer up, managed a smile, and then bowed to them.

His voice was a little weak but still polite. He said, "I am unable to move at the moment and cannot get out of bed to greet you. This is really rude. I hope you elders will forgive me."

Old Master Hong waved his hands quickly and said with concern, "Just lie down, just lie down! We heard about what happened in the palace and have been worried about you. So we came here to see how you are doing."
