Chapter 437
Lu Ji's expression immediately relaxed, his clear eyes were filled with surprise, he looked at his wife and said, "I feel relieved that you are so kind."
This is ironic.
Qin Xiaoning felt uncomfortable after listening to this. She glared at Lu Ji, but thinking that she had indeed done something "unscrupulous" to this guy in the past, she endured it.
"Let's not talk about this anymore." The little woman changed the subject in time: "At the banquet yesterday, Marquis Gu's wife Zhang talked to me for a long time. She said that there was some trouble at home and asked us to go over when we are free."
Lu Ji wondered: "What happened to his family?"
As he spoke, he guessed, "The reason why Zhang was so flustered that she came to look for you and me must be because of the Sun family girl."
Qin Xiaoning smiled and said, "You guessed right."
"Sun Mengli is pregnant." She said, "Ms. Zhang said that she doesn't plan to keep the baby after the diagnosis."
Lu Ji frowned upon hearing this: "The Sun family's daughter is pregnant with Brother Gu's flesh and blood. Why would Zhang not let her keep the child? Besides, Zhang already has a legitimate son. If the concubine is pregnant, it is only natural that she should give birth to the child."
In this world, male power reigns supreme, and how can a man fully understand the twists and turns of the harem?
"She was worried that if Sun Mengli gave birth to a son, it would jeopardize her position."
After hearing this, Lu Ji smiled disdainfully and said, "Since she is worried about losing her husband's favor, she should be more virtuous. If she insists on making things difficult for the Sun family's daughter, I think Brother Gu will dislike her sooner or later."
"Besides, no matter how unwilling she is, Brother Gu is destined to keep the child he and the daughter of the Sun family have."
Qin Xiaoning said, "Marquis Gu naturally wants this child, but Madam Gu also stands on Zhang's side. Right now the Gu family is in a big fuss over this, so Zhang wants us to mediate."
Lu Ji frowned upon hearing this: "Brother Gu and I are very close, but I don't want to interfere in his private affairs in the backyard. He betrayed the daughter of the Sun family and married Zhang, so the backyard is destined to be in turmoil. Let him clean up this mess himself."
"I don't want to go either." Qin Xiaoning sighed, "It's just that they just came to the capital, and Zhang has no relatives. They treated me as a friend in their words and deeds. I was really embarrassed to refuse."
Lu Ji said, "It's really hard to refuse. It's about matters related to the harem. It doesn't matter if I don't go. You are my wife, so you should go. Just consider it for Lord Gu's sake."
The couple was talking at the bedside when they heard a knock on the door: "Princess, are you awake? The two young princes are looking for you. The nurse in the back porch can't stop coaxing them and they are crying non-stop."
Qin Xiaoning hurriedly said, "Hurry up and let the wet nurse bring him in."
Not long after she finished speaking, the wet nurse brought two babbling babies from the back porch into the inner room. When the two little kids saw their mother, they immediately burst into laughter and reached out to Qin Xiaoning with their little hands outstretched.
Lu Ji stood up and took his two sons from the nanny's arms and put them on the bed. Although the two little guys were less than half a year old, they could already crawl, but their movements were still a little clumsy. After Lu Ji put the children on the bed, he quickly blocked the head of the bed with pillows to prevent the two children from accidentally crawling to the ground.
Seeing the two lively children, Qin Xiaoning smiled and first picked up the older child and placed him on her lap. Then she picked up the younger child and hugged them both together, filling her arms.
Lu Ji looked at me and couldn't help but snorted, "Just now you kept complaining about being weak and aching, but now I see you are full of energy."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pinched his wife's cheek, gnashing his teeth and saying, "You're just lying to me, aren't you? You little thing, you've always been the best at controlling me." Qin Xiaoning was holding the child in her arms, and she couldn't spare a hand to open the man's big hand that was pinching her face, so she shook her body, trying to break free, saying angrily, "How could I be lying to you? I was just trying to coax the child, and I was just holding on."
As she said that, she raised her hand and stuffed the child into Lu Ji's arms: "You should also not hide away."
The child was having fun in his mother's arms, but was suddenly put into his father's arms. The little guy pouted his lips immediately, and tears were about to fall. Lu Ji pinched his armpits and lifted him up high, teasing him, "Erlang has grown taller, Erlang has grown taller."
Qin Xiaoning hurriedly said: "Don't scare him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Erlang was heard rising and falling with his father, and he let out a "chuckle".
Qin Xiaoning sighed: "This child is really brave."
While holding his son up and playing with him, Lu Ji replied, "My son is naturally the bravest man."
Seeing his younger brother having fun with his father, Dalang also became anxious. He opened his little hands towards his father and babbled that he wanted one, too.
Seeing this, Lu Ji immediately smiled happily. He put Erlang down and picked up Dalang. He said to Qin Xiaoning, "See? Although the children liked to stick to you in the past, now that they have grown up, they like to look for their daddy."
As she spoke, she tirelessly lifted Erlang up high, making Erlang chuckle with laughter.
Seeing that both children were vying to be lifted up by their daddy, Qin Xiaoning finally couldn't hold back any longer. She got out of bed and came to the dressing table. She picked and chose, found the most gorgeous red hairpin and put it on her head, then walked up to the two children.
When the two children saw their mother dressed like this, they were stunned at first and just stared at their mother with their black eyes without blinking. "It's up to you," Erlang was the first to react. He immediately broke free from his father's arms and started to push towards his mother.
Seeing this, Lu Ji couldn't help but glared at Qin Xiaoning, then said to Erlang: "Xi'er, don't lift me up too high? Daddy can lift me up too high."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Erlang simply used his little hands to pull up his father and pushed even harder towards his mother.
"Give it to me, don't make things difficult for the child." Qin Xiaoning was slightly proud and stretched out her arms to embrace the child.
Lu Ji gritted his teeth and cursed at the child: "What a pervert."
As he said this, he picked up Dalang again and coaxed him, "Daddy, lift Dalang up high."
Dalang was more refined than Erlang. He did not make any move to pull his father in public, but his big black eyes were fixed on the big red hairpin on his mother's head. He pouted his little mouth again and again, and finally uttered: "Mom."
The little baby, who is less than half a year old, can actually speak.
The couple were both shocked when they saw this.
Then, Lu Ji laughed loudly and said proudly: "My son is smart."
Qin Xiaoning looked at her son and couldn't help but well up in tears of excitement.
