Second Miss had a child. Why did the son-in-law make soup? In the eyes of the little servant girl, this matter was very strange.
But after she asked this question, everyone's expression became strange. The son-in-law even slapped her butt to stop her from talking nonsense.
How was this nonsense? When Second Miss had a child in the future, things like making soup would naturally be done by her husband. How could it be the son-in-law? Unless, unless …
The little servant girl had already walked out of the door, but suddenly stopped. Her pretty face showed a look of realization.
Right, in this way, the son-in-law was still the son-in-law, Second Miss was still Second Miss, and it was reasonable for the son-in-law to make soup for Second Miss.
She was originally worried that after Second Miss got married, she would not be able to see her often. If this was the case, they would still be together in the future. Wouldn't there be nothing to worry about?
Thinking of this, the little servant girl's big bright eyes could not help but become brighter. Because a problem that had troubled her for a long time seemed to have found a perfect solution.
…
Li Yi found that Xiao Huan had been talking more and more openly recently. She always mentioned the topic of making soup intentionally or unintentionally. Miss.Liu would not blame her, but the way she looked at him was strange. Although he was open-minded, he could not help but feel guilty when she looked at him like this for a long time.
He did not know what she was thinking. Was she worried that he would have any thoughts about her?
How could that be possible? She was Liu Ruyi, the vicious second daughter of the Liu family. She was the biggest evil force in the family. How could he have any thoughts about her … Yes, probably, maybe … Impossible, right?
Compared with Miss.Liu, who became more and more strange and made him feel uncertain, Ruyi made him feel much more at ease.
After all, she was not an ordinary woman. In terms of physique, she was already at the peak of the world's women. In addition, she was nourished by various decoctions. In fact, her body had almost recovered half a month after giving birth.
The confinement room was almost airtight. Although she would breathe regularly every day, it would still be stuffy after a long time. She only lived in it for half a month before moving out.
Li Yi looked at the little fellow in the swaddling clothes and touched his nose. Although it was only one month and he could not even crawl, he would deliberately hide in Ruyi's arms.
Li Yi helped him tuck in the swaddling clothes and whispered, "Duaner, be a good boy and call me father …"
Ruyi could not help laughing and shook her head, "Husband, you are too impatient. How can a child speak so fast? At least a few months later, he will call me father …"
Li Yi thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Wife, why don't we bet on whether he learns to call me 'father' or 'mother' first …"
A smile appeared on Ruyi's pretty face and she said, "Then my husband will definitely lose. He has been by my side from morning to night, so he must have learned to call me mother first."
"Not necessarily." Li Yi shook his head and said, "This kind of thing still depends on luck."
Looking at him, Ruyi asked, "Then how do you want to bet?"
Li Yi thought for a moment and said, "How about the bet? The loser will agree to one condition of the winner …"
"Okay." Ruyi did not hesitate either. She looked at him and said, "Husband, you must keep your word."
"I will be the judge, I will be the judge!" Lolita rolled her eyes and said, "I will be the judge for Sir and Sister Ruyi."
Li Yi patted her head gently and said, "What are you doing …"
"You need a referee to make a bet. Sir, you even let Yong Ning be the referee when we made a bet …" The tsundere Lolita kept shaking her head, then said, "However, the referee can also participate in the bet …"
Li Yi said helplessly, "Okay, okay. You can be the judge if you want."
Ru Yi smiled as she watched her run out. She looked down at the swaddling clothes and said in a small voice: "Duan'er has fallen asleep again."
Li Yi took the little fellow from her arms and put him in the wooden crib. He turned back and said, "You've been holding him for two hours. You didn't sleep well last night. Let him sleep. You go rest for a while."
Ruyi shook her head and said, "It's okay. I am not tired. I will stay here and guard him. If he wakes up …"
"There are maids watching here. They will call you when he wakes up."
"It's okay …"
Li Yi shook his head and strode over. He carried her in his arms and walked out of the door. The two maids at the door lowered their heads.
Ruyi blushed and whispered, "Husband, there are so many people watching …"
"So what if there are so many people watching? Can't I hold my own wife?" Li Yi shook his head and kicked open the door of the room next door. He put her on the bed and took off her shoes and coat. Finally, he covered her with a quilt.
Li Yi looked at her and whispered, "Sleep. He takes a long nap. He won't wake up for a while."
Ruyi nodded slightly. Her eyelashes blinked a few times and she slowly closed her eyes.
Li Yi gently closed the door and stood in the corridor, looking outside.
It was the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. It had snowed last night, but it was not thick. The old emperor's illness would relapse in winter. It was said that it had worsened these days and he had been bedridden for several days.
It was close to the end of the year and the academy was closed. The old emperor was bedridden and needed to recuperate. He could not be disturbed. Yong Ning and Shouning had been staying here these days and only went back at night.
Although the old emperor could only live in the warm room, he only needed to endure for another month. If he continued to maintain this state of retirement in the spring of next year and did not receive any major stimulation, it should not be a big problem to continue living for another year and a half.
However, with his physical condition, he should not be able to participate in this year's court meeting. But with Her Royal Highness, it did not matter whether he participated or not …
Speaking of Her Royal Highness, Li Yi realized that he had not seen her for a while. The end of the year was approaching. There must be a lot of things to do in the court. The court meeting in half a month's time needed to start preparing now.
He thought for a moment and turned his head. He ordered a servant in the corridor, "Prepare the carriage. Let's go to the palace."
In front of the Li Residence, the carriage slowly moved. After a full quarter of an hour, a small figure slipped into a room.
The proud Lolita looked at the sleeping child in the stroller and whispered in a voice that only she could hear, "Duaner, you have to call Xiao Niang first …"
Outside the Li Residence, a carriage came from a distance and finally stopped.
Inside the carriage, Xiao Cui clenched her fists. She turned her head and asked worriedly, "Miss, are we, are we really going in? How about, how about we tell Li Li first … "
"No need, we are not here to see him." Zeng Zuimo shook her head. She grabbed the hem of her clothes with both hands. After loosening her lips, she nodded and said, "Get off the carriage."
Inside the Residence, a door opened.
Ruyi walked out from inside and asked Xiao Huan, who had just walked in from outside, "Did the son-in-law go out?"
The servant girl nodded and said, "He has been out for a while. It seems that he went to the palace."
She was relieved. If he saw that she did not sleep obediently, she would be scolded again.
Just as she was about to check on the child, a servant hurried over.
"Madam, there is a Miss Zeng outside visiting."
"Ah …" The servant girl heard this and immediately widened her eyes.
Ruyi was startled. After a moment of absent-mindedness, she immediately said, "Quickly go and invite the girl in …"
After that, she shook her head again, "Forget it, I will go myself."
