Raising a wife? The mistress of the Hou family divorced and remarried her younger uncle

Chapter 384 Believe
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and the two lingered for a long time. Lu Jing got into bed and held her in his arms. Su Qingwan found a comfortable sleeping position. Since she hadn't fully recovered, Lu Jing didn't dare to touch her and didn't mention Nianqing. Lu Jing told her about the interesting things that happened on the way and how he had brought her many gifts from Xilin. Su Qingwan asked him to try holding Xiaoyuer.

Lu Jing dared not touch the little fish. It was so soft and squishy, ​​smelling of milk. It was such a delicate life that Lu Jing was afraid that the calluses on his hands would hurt it, so he dared not touch its face.

Su Qingwan told him to straighten his arm, and then she held Xiaoyuer in her arms. "You support his neck, it's okay. Children are very fragile, just be careful!"

"Forget it, let's wait until he's a little older before holding him."

"Try it, gently."

The two were talking softly. Little Yu'er was very well-behaved and didn't make a fuss. She lay quietly in her father's arms and slept soundly. Lu Jing tried to hold her and finally got used to it.

"They're quite skilled. Little Fish is very well-behaved. The nanny said she's easy to take care of and doesn't make a fuss."

Do I sleep with you every night?

“Occasionally he sleeps with me, but my mother says I need to rest well. At night, Xiaoyuer usually sleeps with his wet nurse so as not to disturb me. He needs to drink milk every hour, and if he sleeps with me, I won’t sleep well at night.”

"Then don't take him with you. It's important for you to take good care of your health."

The two leaned against each other, teasing Xiaoyuer. Even though Xiaoyuer was sleeping soundly, they poked his little face, determined not to give up until they woke him up.

If Zhang finds out, she will definitely scold them.

Little Fish finally protested, letting out a soft "hmm," looking like he was about to wake up. His new parents finally let him go and stopped bothering him. Lu Jing called the wet nurse, who took Little Fish to bed. Dinner was also prepared.

The meal was very lavish, as this was Lu Jing's first meal back home, so it naturally had to be more substantial. However, it was too late to make a big fuss, so the couple ate together.

A steaming pot filled with chicken soup, cooked mushrooms and chicken, a plate of sliced ​​beef, a few stir-fried vegetables, steamed fish, and some braised dishes—it looked and smelled delicious. Su Qingwan didn't have a good appetite and preferred a light diet, so she ate a little bit of chicken noodle soup while having dinner with Lu Jing.

She enjoyed this heartwarming moment.

Lu Jing was clearly starving. He didn't eat in the palace and wolfed down his food. "The cooks in the manor are still the best."

"You should like Xilin's food."

Lu Jing smiled faintly. It was what Su Qingwan liked, and it was what Lu Jing liked too. Although their tastes were different, they both liked the food in Xilin. After Lu Jing had almost finished eating, Su Qingwan asked Nian Qing.

"When I was giving birth, the princess came to me and said that Nianqing had contracted the plague on her way. Is this true?"

“Nianqing was wounded twice on the battlefield, both times seriously. Marquis Ningyuan concealed the truth and didn’t inform you. He didn’t recover properly and did contract the plague on the way back to the capital. His condition was extremely dangerous. The princess’s confidants misunderstood that we were plotting against Nianqing and took the princess’s token to execute him first and report later. I imprisoned them. Fortunately, Nianqing was in good health and survived the plague. If he had been weaker, he probably wouldn’t have made it. I’m also quite scared now. I was really afraid he would have died from the plague. I really wouldn’t have been able to explain it to you. I couldn’t explain it to you even if I had ten mouths.” Lu Jing was more frightened than anyone else. When he saw the military doctor determine that Nianqing wouldn’t live past dawn, he was even more terrified.

Fortunately, he pulled through!

“The Princess also suspects that you are plotting against him!” Su Qingwan looked at him gently. “Ziyu, but I believe you. You would never harm my family.”
