Ji Xiang went home and told Li Yu what he had seen and heard at Laidi’s house. “Madam, I think Miss Gu might be missing her parents. There’s no smile on her face when she’s pregnant.”

Could it be that Li Fengqi didn’t care about her when she was pregnant? Otherwise, why would she miss her aunt and the others? Li Yu thought for a moment and said to Ji Xiang, “Ask Little Jiu to pay more attention to Laidi’s house. If she finds anything wrong with Laidi, report it.”

“Yes, Madam.” Ji Xiang agreed and left.

Zhou Jia returned to the government office. Li Yu brought Xing Hua to Li Qing’s house and watched as everyone busied themselves cutting paper. The big red word “happiness” was pasted on every door and window. Even the corners were decorated with lanterns with the big red word “happiness”.

Madam Gong smiled and said to Li Yu, “Ah Yu, the dowry is coming tomorrow. When the time comes, we want two boys to roll in bed with Ah Qing. Yang’er is at the right age and we’re still missing one. Your uncle found a child in the clan. ”

Li Yu smiled and said, “Alright, Aunt, just arrange it. I don’t understand these rules.”

Madam Gong interacted with the Fan family a lot these days. She felt that the Fan couple was kind and that Li Qing had made the right choice with the Fan family.

Madam Gong looked at Li Yu’s growing belly and smiled considerately. “Don’t worry. The Fan family knows that we have few people and has gotten someone to help. The Fan family values Ah Qing very much and dotes on their daughter.”

Ever since Li Yu found out that Fan Wenzheng and his wife would rather endure the rumors outside than agree to marry their daughter to the Feng family, she felt that they were pure-hearted people. She felt that Fan Mingfang was still magnanimous and calm after enduring the ridicule of those aunties; Fan Mingfang’s personality was tenacious and could support the family. She was also very satisfied with connecting with the Fan family through marriage.

Li Yu smiled and held Madam Gong’s hand. “That’s right. I also think that Lord Fan and his wife are kind. They really dote on their daughter. Aunt and Uncle are the same.”

Madam Gong smiled and patted Li Yu’s hand. “As parents, we only hope that our child will live well. It’s fine for our son, but when he grows up, he’ll marry. If his wife has a good temperament, we’ll treat her well. Our family can live a harmonious and beautiful life. If her temperament is bad, there’s also etiquette. If we straighten our posture, she won’t dare to cause trouble.”

“When my daughter gets married, I’m afraid that she won’t be trusted. I’m afraid that her husband won’t be reliable. I’m afraid that she’ll encounter a

Li Yu sighed when she heard that. “That’s right! Only after bec will we know that parents are the most selfless people in the themselves.”

The two of them walked into the main courtyard. Madam Gong pointed at Gu Yu, who was busy helping to paste the word “happiness”, and smiled in satisfaction. “This girl is not bad. She’s also busy with work even though she’s pregnant. She’s efficient and likes to ask questions without thinking she’s smart.”

When Li Yu saw that it was Gu Yu, she smiled and said, “She was originally the little girl in front of me who fell in love with Ji Xiang. The two of them got married in Yunzhou before the new year. This girl is loyal.”

Madam Gong glanced at Xing Hua, who was following behind Li Yu. “Yes! The person called Xing Hua in front of you is not bad either. She keeps her head low and does things well. You don’t have many little girls at home, so you have to pick a few back. Xing Hua is going to get married in two years, so you won’t be able to take on the people you order around. Also, it’s fine if the two children in your stomach are boys. If they are two daughters, the little girl will have to order them around.”

Li Yu nodded. “Aunt, I really didn’t think of this. You’re so thoughtful.”

The two of them walked up to Gu Yu. “Auntie Xiang, let me help you.” Xing Hua also smiled and went up to help.

When Gu Yu saw Li Yu and the others, she smiled and put down the paper cutting in her hand. She went forward and bowed. “Madam, Matriarch, you’re here!”

Li Yu smiled and said, “Yes! Rest for a while. Ji Xiang’s heart will ache if you’re tired.”

“Madam, don’t you feel sorry for me? I’ll be sad.” Gu Yu pouted and joked.

Li Yu looked at her with a smile. “My heartache is why you’re resting!” Everyone laughed.

Ruyi and his wife followed Zhao Cai to their new house. The couple looked at the two-in-one house in front of them in satisfaction.

Zhao Cai smiled and said, “Your family, mine, and Ji Xiang’s family are both in the two nearby alleys. Uncle, Young Master, and Master’s new residence are not far from us.”

Ruyi smiled and patted Zhao Cai’s shoulder. “Good brother, you’re so thoughtful. This place isn’t far from Master’s house. It’s convenient to go back and forth.”

Zhao Cai rolled its eyes at him. “Good lad. You’re being polite.”

Xiaoyu smiled and said to the two of them, “You’re all brothers. Everyone is busy with Uncle and Young Master’s wedding. Let’s quickly pack up and go to Uncle and Young Master’s place to see if there’s anything we need to do.”

Zhao Cai smiled when he heard that. “Yes, Sister-in-law is right. Sigh! Why didn’t the one in my family think of that?”

Xiaoyu smiled and said, “Brother Zhao Cai, Sister-in-law is your new wife. You can’t be picky.”

“Alright, Sister-in-law, go pack up first.” After Zhao Cai agreed, he felt a little upset. Madam and Master were understanding, but he couldn’t take it for granted. Why hadn’t he heard his wife mention anything about helping with the wedding? He should ask Ji Xiang if his Gu Yu had gone over to help.

Zhao Cai did not even return home. He went straight back to the residence and asked Ji Xiang, “Did your wife go to help with the wedding?”

“Yes! She’s been helping make curtains over there for the past few days.” Seeing that Zhao Cai’s expression was getting uglier and uglier, Ji Xiang asked worriedly, “Why did you think of asking about this? Did something happen?”

Zhao Cai’s face darkened. “The one at home hasn’t mentioned helping until today. She even went back to her mother’s house yesterday. When she came back, she even gossiped. Only then did I hear from Ruyi’s wife that she should quickly pack up and help Young Master-in-law.”

“I just feel that something’s wrong. On careful thought, I don’t think she took the initiative to come over to greet Madam when she came back. It was Gu Yu who called her every time. Do you think she doesn’t treat us as a family?”

Ji Xiang watched as Zhao Cai became angrier and angrier. He hurriedly persuaded him, “You should go back and take a look. Is Sister-in-law not feeling well that she didn’t help? No matter what, you can’t make things unhappy these two days.”

“Besides, Gu Yu said that she was only doing some scattered things over there.

Sister-in-law is your new wife. It’s fine if she doesn’t go.”

They had been married for half a year and she was still his new wife. Zhao Cai kept feeling that there was another reason why she was not feeling unwell. He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go back tonight and see what’s going on.”

Everyone split up and got busy. At dusk, the sunset dyed half the sky red. It seemed that tomorrow would be a clear day.

Li Yu got someone to set up a few tables. Everyone gathered around happily to welcome Uncle Zhou, Auntie He, and Ruyi’s family.

Gu Yu looked at Zhao Cai sitting far away from Zhizi and said with a smile,

“What’s wrong with the two of you? Why are you sitting so far away tonight?”

Zhao Cai smiled and said, “Ruyi and I haven’t seen each other in so long. I want to talk to Ruyi.”

“Let them sit together and drink. Let’s eat more,” Zhizi said with a smile..
