Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 1114 This is my biological son

Zhou Banxia was unaware that her husband was wary of Old Madam Gao, who was using her favor to gain power. It was highly unlikely that he would send someone to investigate if he didn't feel at ease after receiving a reply today.

No matter how energetic a baby is, they can't resist their biological clock. There's no need to try to coax them to sleep; once they've peed and filled their tummy, they'll fall asleep immediately.

Once I fall asleep, even thunder can't wake me.

This time, she can sleep until five or six o'clock before dark, and then sleep until seven or eight o'clock in the evening. She can do whatever she wants.

First, I need to resolve the trivial matters that I haven't had time to deal with today because I was out, such as the staff reassignment in the workshop, so that I can continue to work on my embroidery with peace of mind.

Taking advantage of the two or three hours of light, they waited for her to sit behind the embroidery shed by the window. Mai Huang and the others knew that they shouldn't disturb her unless it was something extremely important.

In May, although the sky darkens slowly, time flies when you're fully focused on something, and before you know it, the sun has set.

She subconsciously looked out the window at the trees a few more times to help her eyesight. She twisted her neck, and only halfway through did she realize that it was getting dark.

"Second Master hasn't returned yet?"

Zhou Banxia stood up and took two steps back. While looking at her masterpiece, she considered how many more days it would take to finish the embroidery. Mai Xiang came in carrying a tray with both hands.

When she learned from Maixiang that Gu Wenxuan had not yet returned, nor had he sent Jiaxing or Zhian back, she knew that Gu Wenxuan would be back soon.

If she had to spend the night in the city, by this time her husband would have already sent someone back to inform her, and she would be able to go home without any further movement.

At the latest, he will definitely leave the city before the city gates close. No matter how dark it is outside, even if it's raining knives, it won't stop him from being as homesick as a fledgling bird.

"...Young Master hasn't woken up yet, no rush, Second Madam. Have some sweet soup first. Ophiopogon japonicus is there watching over Young Master, he can hear you."

It's another soup of white fungus, cassia seeds, and goji berries, which is good for clearing heat and improving eyesight. Actually, I only embroidered for an hour or two, and I even looked at the trees in the distance along the way, so it really didn't cause my eyes to get too tired.

Unfortunately, there's no way around it; she has to drink it. Everyone's acting like they're afraid she'll go blind. I bet there'll be another wolfberry and crucian carp soup tonight.

She quickly finished the sweet soup, then went to the bathroom to wash her hands before coming out. Her son, Yuan Ge'er, had slept well, and as long as he had slept well, he would be happy when he woke up.

He looked left and right, grinned, and started kicking his arms and legs.

Perhaps having heard that she had arrived, they immediately stopped all their movements.

Once she lifted the curtain and went inside, she immediately started babbling and kicking her legs and stretching out her arms, as if she were much smarter than other babies.

Hug me.

Grandma's baby smells delicious.

"Going out?"

As your mother, I knew you couldn't stay indoors!
Zhou Banxia chuckled and patted the child in his arms. As he wished, she left the inner room and walked back into the hall.

It's impossible to get out.

It's getting dark, and the wind is picking up outside. It's not good for you to go out now. You'd better listen to how your mother handles household chores.

瞅！
Your Aunt Maiqing came back carrying a big box. Our workshop usually has an accountant who delivers banknotes and cash around this time every day.

Sometimes there are more banknotes, sometimes there is more cash.

For example, soap workshops mostly received money in the form of banknotes, while tofu workshops received more cash.

Then there's the oil press, where most of the silver notes and cash each account for half.

Why are these bank drafts and cash not kept in the account, but delivered in every day just before dark?
That's because our family's workshops, including all the small processing workshops on our estate, have already set aside reserve working capital in their accounts. Even if the reserve working capital is temporarily insufficient, it's not good to keep too much cash flow in the accounts. It's a matter of managing people. Sigh, why am I telling you all this, even though I'm going crazy?

Zhou Banxia was amused by her own crazy actions, and seeing the little child's restless look and wanting her to pick him up and walk around, she was even more amused.

Hey, what are you laughing at?

"……&……"

"Alright, you just want to go out, let's go see if your father is back. Yes, Father, where is your father? Yuan-ge'er misses his father."

No rush, no rush. With Yuan-ge at home, your father can't run away. Your father adores Yuan-ge; a day without seeing him feels like three autumns.

"Okay, I'm going out now. Mother, walk and walk. Look, isn't Mother here? What? Oh, do you want Mother to walk to that door?"

You're pushing your luck, you little brat!

This is my own child, my own child, not my sister, not my brother, not my nephew, not my cousin. Be patient, don't hit him, Zhou Banxia!
“Mai Dong, I have something to talk to Mai Qing about. Come here and hold Yuan Ge’er. Don’t go out into the hall. Just let Yuan Ge’er watch over him. It’s windy outside.”

"Second Madam, Second Master is back. Jiaxing said Second Master just went to the main courtyard, and he told you not to take the young master there. He's coming back right away..."

came back?
Zhou Banxia subconsciously glanced at the sky outside. It was neither dark nor dark. She was already home. It seemed that nothing had delayed her. She would be back soon after the assessment competition ended.

As for not needing to take the child to the main hospital?

Who would take a child to the main courtyard after dark? It would be better to just tell her to wait for him to come back in the west courtyard.

Of course, she couldn't go to the main courtyard at this hour.

No need to ask, the women in the main courtyard are currently having their dinner, and it will be almost over.

Maixiang seemed to have mentioned before that the madam sent someone to see her while she was busy with her embroidery. Later, even Aunt Ma said that they were not outsiders and told her and her daughter to stay in the west courtyard with peace of mind.

All of these arrangements were made so that she wouldn't have to make an extra trip to the main courtyard to have dinner with them; she could simply eat in the west courtyard, since the people in the main courtyard would definitely have eaten dinner much earlier.

"...Jiaxing said he saw Mrs. Ma on the way back. Mrs. Ma was accompanied by the eldest madam. The eldest madam said that she would accompany Mrs. Ma back again."

Sure enough, dinner was finished early, and we went home.

As for a daughter escorting her mother all the way back to her parents' home, there's nothing strange about that.

Why didn't she say it earlier or later? Her son-in-law suddenly mentioned going on a long trip, and we only found out this morning. It's highly likely that Aunt Ma has some experience to pass on to her daughter.

If a daughter doesn't politely escort her mother home, her mother will drag her away. When will the son-in-law teach his daughter some lessons before leaving home?

Poor sister-in-law!

If a mother teaches one thing and a husband teaches another, then anyone who isn't taught to the point of mental breakdown must be incredibly thick-skinned.

Anyone else would have suffered from neurasthenia and emotional instability long ago. If they were still lecturing and nagging, they wouldn't be alive if they weren't irritable.

"Oh yes, Second Madam, there's another piece of great news that I almost forgot to tell you. Jiaxing said that Second Master came out on top again today. Shall we add a couple more dishes to celebrate?"

Zhou Banxia couldn't help but laugh when Mai Huang's words were amusing.

"Second Madam?"

“It’s something to celebrate,” Zhou Banxia said, changing the subject. “But it shouldn’t be publicized too much. As usual, everyone will be rewarded. Go find Aunt Lan and do as she instructs.”
