The baby-making system is unreliable
Chapter 39: The Prince in Southern Xinjiang vs. the Princess in Jiangnan (14)
After April, the autumn wind was bleak and a little chilly. Thanks to the efforts of everyone in Jinxi City, the city was mostly rebuilt and there was no sign of the erosion caused by war.
Although it has not yet fully recovered to its pre-war prosperity, thanks to everyone's joint efforts, there is no trace of the war here.
Every brick and stone, every inch of land no longer looks as dilapidated as before.
Today, Jinxi City looks brand new. The broken walls and ruins are gone, replaced by neat and beautiful houses and wide and flat streets.
The streets and alleys are bustling with people, businesses are opening for business one after another, all kinds of goods are on display, and the sounds of hawking can be heard one after another.
Children are playing in the streets, their laughter echoing in the air; the elderly are sitting in the doorway chatting in the sun, enjoying the quiet time.
In the tea room, people gathered in groups of three or four, talking about recent events.
"Have you heard? Princess Wuzhe is back from her travels, and she's back with her husband."
"Princess Wuzhe was also King Wu Yue's favorite daughter back then, but I don't know why she has disappeared for so many years?"
"Is this true? Didn't they say that King Beiyou imprisoned the princess?!"
"Hush... You dare to talk nonsense about the royal family's secrets, aren't you afraid of being beheaded?"
"That's nothing! The point is at the end. The princess seems to be injured. Now it's the little princess who has returned to the imperial city."
"The little princess has moved into the imperial city, and it is said that the little princess from the princess's family is going to get married."
"What?! What nonsense! It's obviously the little princess who refused to return to the imperial city, and now she is still in our general's mansion?!"
The people in the city had different opinions on this, but in the City Lord's Mansion, everyone was very busy.
When Granny Yang heard that the two were going to get married, she traveled all the way from Suzhou to Miaojiang for quite some time just to see their wedding with her own eyes.
That's right, they are getting married, tomorrow.
The city lord's mansion was decorated with lights and there was a festive atmosphere. Big red lanterns were hung high, and the doors and windows were covered with paper-cuts of the word "happiness", which was exquisite and festive.
Red silk was fluttering everywhere, and the servants in the mansion were busy shuttling between every corner, carefully arranging every detail.
The night shrouded the windowsill. In the wedding room, candlelight flickered. Red double happiness characters were pasted on every corner of the room, exuding a festive atmosphere.
Yun Xirou sat quietly in front of the bronze mirror, her beautiful face looking even more shy under the candlelight.
The red candle illuminates the beauty, the red lips reflect the beauty, so charming and touching.
She gently picked up the gorgeous wedding dress on the table, her eyes full of anticipation and joy.
This wedding dress is made of the finest silk and is embroidered with exquisite patterns with fine stitching. The colors of the dress are bright and solemn.
Yun Yirou carefully put on the wedding dress, feeling its soft and smooth touch. The dress was tailored just right, perfectly outlining her slender figure.
The neckline was inlaid with silver, shining brightly. She fastened her belt, adjusted the hem of her skirt, then stood up, turned around in front of the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.
At this moment, Yun Xirou is like a blooming flower, delicate and beautiful, exuding charming charm.
"When I think about my baby getting married, I feel uncomfortable."
Granny Yang held the jewelry in one hand, looked at the person in front of her, nodded with satisfaction, and murmured something.
"Mother-in-law..."
Yun Airou turned around embarrassedly, took her mother-in-law's hand, and lowered her head in shame.
"Mother-in-law, think about it again. You would be so sad if the girl you raised married someone else. But you raised Brother Han, so you know him well!"
Lin Yile put down the lip balm in her hand, with a smile in her eyes, and listened to her mother-in-law's words of comfort.
As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family. It is better to benefit your own people than to benefit others.
"That's true! You cheap Han boy, it's not easy for me to raise a girl like that."
"Mother-in-law...Yile, please stop teasing me."
This was the first time for a bride to ride in a sedan chair. Although there might not be many guests tomorrow, a simple and plain environment was what they wanted.
Fortunately, the people in the southern barbarians are simple and honest. As long as both parents agree and both parties are willing, they can get married even under the moonlight as a witness.
"Unfortunately, although Xiao Shi is awake now, it is difficult to move. I am afraid that Jie'er and the others will not be able to attend your wedding in time."
Granny Yang didn't stay for long, so she was still worried about the children. She could only feel at ease after making sure they were fine.
A month ago, at noon one day, Xiao Shi woke up and the news came immediately.
Han Xiuqi went with her to visit his mother and brought some herbs.
I remember when I saw my mother then, her lips were still pale, but there was a spirit of survival in her eyes.
Although my body is not well yet, at least I am awake.
"Mother, you finally woke up!! Your daughter missed you so much!!"
Yun Xirou was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears. She held her mother tightly and was unwilling to let go for even a moment.
"Mother... I miss you too! I haven't seen my daughter for a long, long time."
Wu Xiaoshi, who was standing by, watched this scene with tears in her eyes. She smiled softly, and although her voice was weak, it was full of relief and joy.
Not being able to watch your children grow up is naturally a huge regret.
The mother and daughter talked for a long time, with Yun Xirou speaking mostly in a soft voice and her mother listening quietly, occasionally interjecting a few words to ask about her daughter's recent situation.
According to what she heard from her father, they planned to travel around the world together after their mother recovered from her injury, to visit the famous mountains and rivers, and not have to worry about all these miscellaneous matters anymore.
Wu Xiaoshi agreed and wanted to ask his great-aunt to go out for a walk so that she wouldn't have to stay there all the time. But his great-aunt said that she was old and too lazy to move.
"Mother's injury hasn't fully healed yet, and father is with her. I'm afraid he can't come, but they sent us a gift."
Yun Xirou remembered the brocade box her mother handed her. Inside was a strange-looking token. She didn't know what it was for, but she was just told to accept it.
"Now that I think about it, I thought my parents wouldn't agree to marry me off so quickly. But unexpectedly, after just a brief discussion and a meeting with Brother Han, they nodded in agreement."
On that day, he was the one who mentioned marrying her. I don't know what they talked about. Anyway, the final result was that her parents agreed, and she was going to get married tomorrow.
"The princess... must have her own reasons. However, speaking of gifts, Your Highness and the King of the Southern Barbarians have both sent quite a few. The general and I have also prepared some. Please accept them."
Lin Yile looked at her gently and said that there were so many gifts in the warehouse that they could hardly put them all away.
They got married in southern Xinjiang and had little place to live, but fortunately the general's mansion was big enough and it was a good thing to arrange their wedding for them.
"It's just... I never thought that you would... refuse!?"
When Lin Yile heard this, she was stunned. She never thought that Yun Xirou would be the little princess, and she never thought that she would refuse.
"Did you ever think that I would reject the kindness of the Southern Barbarian King and restore my noble status as a princess?!"
Yun Xirou smiled lightly and patted her mother-in-law's wrinkled hands, unable to hide the distressed look in her eyes.
After receiving the news, the King of Nanman wrote to him several times. If he hadn't been busy with work, he would have come in person!
It was not until Wu Xiaoshi wrote back to him that he stopped writing to her. I guess he didn't want to disturb her anymore and followed her wishes.
You know, becoming a princess means endless wealth and high status, but she chose to give it up without hesitation.
"Mother said that if you want to live an ordinary and simple life, staying away from your public appearance is the best option."
Yun Xirou's mother wouldn't go back, so why would she go back?! There's no need!
As long as everyone can do what they want to do and realize their most desired wishes, it would be a great blessing.
What Wu Xiaoshi wants most is probably peace!
"Xiao Shi really doesn't want to be involved in this anymore. I hope it will be as she wishes!"
Granny Yang frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
She sighed softly, thinking it would be best to stay away from disputes and live in peace.
"Besides, my favorite days were when I was in Suzhou, living with my mother-in-law and brother Han. Apart from that, there is nothing else."
Yun Xirou said softly, her eyes revealing her deep attachment and cherishment for those beautiful memories.
The peaceful and warm atmosphere always makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
"Let's not talk about that. Our little princess will be a beautiful bride tomorrow. I wonder what the groom is doing!? Is he too excited to sleep?"
Lin Yile raised the corner of her mouth slightly, looked at her with a smile, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and spoke in a deliberately teasing tone.
"Sister Lin, please stop teasing me!! Please forgive me!"
Yun Xirou's pleading eyes met her, causing her to cover her mouth and smile.
The two of them got along very well when they first met. Although they did not spend much time together, it did not affect their feeling that they had met each other too late.
Now that we are familiar with each other, there is no need to talk too much and we often joke and play around.
"I just remembered that there might be some discomfort between husband and wife... that... Madam He... if you don't mind, it's not a problem for you to teach me a thing or two."
"..."
Yun Xirou never thought that her mother-in-law would say these words. She immediately lowered her eyes and her earlobes turned slightly red.
"The old lady is leaving first, you young people can continue."
After saying this, Granny Yang fled the scene as if she was afraid that they would be embarrassed.
"Pfft... What?! Are you shy? But... I think he should be pretty good at it."
After all, she doesn't seem to be a reckless person. Lin Yile looked at Yun Xirou's slightly red face and couldn't help laughing.
"Sister Lin... stop talking!"
Yun Xirou said this angrily, wishing she could cover her mouth. She couldn't bear to look at her and stared at the floor.
"What? You don't want me to teach you?! Actually... you can also take the initiative..."
Lin Yile smiled as if she was watching a show, put her arm around her, and looked at the shy look of the person in front of her.
……
The night is deep, everything is silent, and the moonlight is as bright as scattered white snow.
However, in this quiet atmosphere, two people were drinking on the rooftop.
"What's wrong?! Aren't you going to sleep yet?! Are you too excited as a groom to sleep?"
Wu Canjiang smiled wickedly at the man drinking on the roof, then flew over and sat down beside him.
He Sui bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Wu Canjiang raised his hand, picked up the wine jug, and took a few gulps, but unexpectedly it came out directly.
"Pfft... It's so unpalatable?! Can you guys drink this?"
"This is medicinal wine. It won't make you drunk, and it's very good for your health."
Han Xiuqi raised his eyebrows helplessly, shook the wine jug, and put it down gently.
"Why are you drinking at this time? And you, a man with a family, are drinking too?!"
"..."
He Sui sighed innocently and continued, "Alas! Of course my wife didn't come back home, so Xianbao and I can't sleep well!"
"Forehead……"
The reason...needless to say!
The two of them had a rare tacit understanding and rolled their eyes at He Suixiao.
"I really couldn't sleep! Thank you for taking the trouble to arrange it."
Han Xiuqi touched the jade pendant at his waist, rubbing it with his slender fingers, thinking about how to give her a surprise.
Perhaps he was a little nervous and couldn't sleep well at night, so he dragged He Sui here to drink.
"What are you talking about?! Father also said that our decoration was too simple. When my aunt got married, there was no big celebration. This is just to make up for it."
His father has always remembered this matter, how could Yun Xirou do the same now?! He was also preparing to host a banquet for the people of the whole city!
"This reminds me of the scene when I got married. Back then, we were also very popular..."
He Sui drank a little wine, ready to have a chat, with a slightly arrogant expression on his face.
"Okay, that's enough. I have to get up early tomorrow..."
"I'm going to go, I'm going to sleep first."
Wu Canjiang yawned, as if he was really tired, and the two exchanged glances.
"Hey, hey, hey? You...can't sleep? You specially asked me to come here to drink, and you left after I finished half of the wine?!"
He Sui looked at the man in front of him with a blank face, muttering to himself.
"I'm the one who's upset. I thought you guys were drinking something precious, but this is all? It's boring! I'm going to drink a lot tomorrow!!"
Wu Canjiang seemed to have his good mood ruined, so he decided to get the man who was about to become his brother-in-law drunk tomorrow.
No?! He was forced to come here to drink, but now he just walked away halfway through the drink, leaving him here without a care! What kind of thing is this?
"If you drink again, be careful that your wife won't let you into the house! Oh, I don't know what will happen if Mrs. He gets angry?! I'm really looking forward to it!"
Wu Canjiang walked on the roof quickly and spoke with a smile.
"No...this is too unreasonable!" He Sui couldn't help but mutter, with a hint of helplessness and a bitter smile in his voice.
"It's okay, Madam He won't be angry. This medicinal wine isn't that strong!"
Han Xiuqi chuckled, patted his shoulder, and prepared to go back to the house.
The more He Sui thought about it, the angrier he became. He widened his eyes and stared at the two figures walking away.
At this moment, He Sui's heart was filled with all kinds of complicated emotions.
He felt a little angry and a little amused at the same time.
