Chapter 480
Chu Rui nodded, "So every family has to have a son. When a girl grows up and marries to someone else's house, it will be very difficult to come back. What's more, Bao'er and Zhu'er are married to the capital? It's a hundred miles away from home. I haven’t been back for a few years.”

Ding Xiang looked at Chu Rui, and asked seriously: "Do you want me to give birth to a son for you too?"

Chu Rui was surprised, "Don't you want to?"

Ding Xiang frowned, "What if I can't have a son? Are you going to take a concubine or marry another woman?"

Chu Rui shook his head, "Why? I married you to spend the rest of my life with you, not to have children. If I don't have a son, just adopt one. I will never take a concubine, let alone marry another woman. You Are my prenuptial vows false?"

Ding Xiang raised her eyebrows, "I'm relieved with your words. In this dynasty, sons are more important. Isn't it said that mothers are more expensive than sons? Not to mention now, in a dynasty that will prosper thousands of years later, sons are also very important. Women who don’t have sons have a hard time living in their husband’s house.”

Chu Rui was still talking, when Bao'er and Zhu'er came over with red eyes.

Ding Xiang went up to comfort her and said: "The deceased is gone, you live a good life, and come here often to offer incense to your mother, she is watching you from above."

Bao'er nodded, and Zhu'er looked on the road, but she didn't see her own father, so they didn't wait any longer, and everyone boarded the car and went back to the city.

When Ding Xiang arrived at the store, she saw that the store was almost furnished.

Qiao Yuanwai hurriedly said: "I have been busy until now, and I haven't had time to go to the grave, but you have already returned. Prince, Ding Xiang, why don't you stay here tonight? I'll leave tomorrow."

Chu Rui looked at Ding Xiang, "What do you mean?"

Ding Xiang said: "Let's go back to the capital. I'll be home in less than three o'clock. I'm not used to living here. Anyway, I have a carriage, so I'll work a little harder. Let's go back. A hundred miles is not too far away."

Inns in this era are no more than modern hotels, but there are no disinfection measures or anything. Thinking of those quilts that no one knows who has slept there, Ding Xiang feels uncomfortable all over, and really doesn't want to live in an inn.

Chu Rui naturally listened to Ding Xiang, said goodbye to Qiao Yuanwai, Bao'er, and Zhu'er, and the group headed to the capital again.

It was really late when we arrived in the capital, and the gates of the city were closed long ago.

However, with the prince Chu Rui present, the guards at the city gate checked the token of Prince Xin's Mansion and let him go naturally.

The big head went straight back to Ding's house, "Second sister, second brother-in-law, please go slowly."

Everyone parted, Ding Xiang said: "Go to the small courtyard. It's too late to rush back to the palace, so I'd better stay in the small courtyard temporarily for one night."

Chu Rui nodded, "I think so too. I'm afraid it's too cold without a brazier in the room." However, he smiled and whispered in Ding Xiang's ear, "Don't be afraid, I'll sleep with you in my arms."

Ding Xiang yawned so much that she didn't bother to talk to him.

Soon after arriving at the yard, Wan'er opened the door, simply boiled water to wash up, tidied up hastily, and got into bed.It was really cold, Chu Rui hugged Lilac, and it took them a long time to warm up.

After driving hundreds of miles back and forth in one day, and spending a long time in the wind in Qiao's cemetery, Ding Xiang suffered from the wind and cold overnight, and the next morning she woke up feeling light-headed, which turned out to be sick.

Ding Xiang has always been in good health, and has never been sick for several years. This sudden attack of illness is really not serious, and in the afternoon she even developed a fever.

Chu Rui was so anxious that the corners of his mouth frothed, "The streets are full of quack doctors, Wan'er, go and find Imperial Doctor Tian for me!"
