The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 337
I slept in a daze all night, and when I got up early in the morning, the rain had stopped.Zhao Jing saw fresh lotus flowers with dewdrops on the shelf in Mrs. Xu's room, so she asked with a smile: "Mom is more and more leisurely now, these two lotus flowers are offered in the room, which makes people think Fresh and elegant."

The old lady Xu smiled and said: "I don't have such leisurely thoughts. Sister Xian asked the maid to deliver it early in the morning. She said it looks good, so she gave me a bottle."

Xu Si'an saw that old lady Xu's face was full of smiles, and said with his hands behind his back: "Sister Xian is getting more and more sensible, it seems that this gentleman is not in vain."

Zhao Jing and Mrs. Xu talked about going to He's house. Mrs. Xu was a little worried when she heard that Mrs. He was not in good health. Just ask, and say that everything is fine for Miss Qi living in our house, just let her take care of her with peace of mind."

At this point, the old lady gave another order: "Yesterday, when I asked the imperial physician to come over to give you the pulse of joy, I also asked the imperial physician to show Miss Qi, and she said that there is nothing serious, but it is just a bit of a bitter summer. The girl is spoiled, and if she has this problem, just take a few patches of medicine and it will be fine."

Zhao Jing heard everything one by one, and when everyone was about to go out after breakfast, Xu Si'an said, "I'll take you there."

"Don't you need to go to the barracks today?" Zhao Jing asked him only raising her eyes.

Xu Si'an stood at the door and looked at the hot weather, frowned and said: "I won't go today, the sun is too big, I'm afraid of the heat."

Zhao Jing is really used to Xu Si'an's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense, now he doesn't even bother to make jokes, so he smiled and said: "If you want to come along, then let's go together."

The He family is not far from the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, separated by about four alleys, walking north at the entrance of the alley, crossing an arched bridge, and saw the house of the He family.There are many military generals in this area, who made their fortunes with the great grandfather, and many military generals' mansions were given here, so there is a special name called Jiangjun Lane.

The carriage stopped at the door of He's house not long after. Zhao Jing sent a maid to call the door. When she turned her head, she saw Xu Si'an leaning on the carriage with her eyes closed and rested. Well, sitting in this car is also boring."

Xu Si'an opened his eyes, glanced left and right, took Zhao Jing's hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm not afraid of the heat, I'll wait for you in the car,"

Just now he said he was afraid of the heat, but now he is not afraid of the heat anymore... Zhao Jing bit her lips and smiled, but did not speak, just wiped the sweat stains on his forehead with a handkerchief, and continued: "Then I Go and come, you wait here."

Xu Si'an nodded obediently and watched Zhao Jing leave.

The members of the He family were quite surprised when they heard that Mrs. Marquis Wu'an came to visit in person, and led a mighty group of female relatives to welcome them out.Although Zhao Jing came to see Mrs. He, it was inevitable that she would meet Mrs. He's family, so she sat in Mrs. He's courtyard for a while.

Everyone was somewhat curious about the rumored good-looking Mrs. Marquis of Wu'an who came from a poor background. Now that they saw Zhao Jing's appearance, they realized that the rumors were true. Zhao Jing's appearance was really one of the best in a hundred.

"How can my daughter-in-law be so good? I asked Mrs. Hou to come and see her in person." Although Mrs. He knew that the Qi family and the Xu family were related by marriage, the Qi family has been defeated now, the tree fell and the monkeys scattered, even her The mother-in-law doesn't pay much attention to that daughter-in-law now, how could she expect that other people would pay attention to her!
Zhao Jing saw Mrs. He's words, and knew that Mrs. He must have a hard time in the He family. Without her natal family to rely on, and not having a son-in-law, she would be looked down upon after all.She glanced around, only to see that the two women standing beside Mrs. He both had delicate features, each of them was holding a little boy by the hand, and they looked very harmonious.

Zhao Jing also knew that Mrs. He only had such a son, so it seemed obvious who the two little boys were.

"Madam is pregnant, so I should come to see her. You don't have to be polite, old lady. My old lady said she would come over, but the weather is too hot, so I didn't let her come." Zhao Jing smiled and stood up. Farewell, she didn't want to waste time with these idlers, Xu Si'an in the carriage was still waiting for her, she couldn't really let her die of heat!
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jing just stood up, when a servant from outside the yard ran in and said, "Lady, the master said that Marquis of Wu'an is here, let me invite the old lady to go out to greet you!"

After hearing this, Zhao Jing was puzzled. Could it be that Xu Si'an was really too hot, so he got out of the carriage and planned to find a place to enjoy the cool?
Mrs. He at the side was also very surprised when she heard this, she thought to herself that the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife are really interesting, why do the couple come in and out at the same time, and go separately?

Mrs. He glanced at Zhao Jing, seeing that she was also a little confused, and immediately felt a little embarrassed, Zhao Jing smiled at her and said: "Since the master called the old lady to go, let's go, I will Go see Mrs.

After hearing this, Mrs. He reluctantly nodded her head, turned her head to a woman holding a little boy beside her and said, "Take Mrs. Hou to your wife's side, so I can take care of you."

The woman only respectfully blessed her body, and entrusted the little boy to the nanny, then led Zhao Jing to Mrs. He's side.

The house of the He family is not big, but Mrs. He's courtyard has three entrances. When it comes to Mrs. He's side, it is just like a small courtyard.Zhao Jing saw that the furnishings inside were very ordinary. She thought that living in an ordinary official's house in the capital would be such a tight life.
