husband and wife

Chapter 425

Early the next morning, Mrs. Song's family was all dressed up, and they had been sending Father Su and Song Yougen to the pier, watching the boat disappear from sight, before Song Ziheng shook Su Wan's hand: "My lady, go back."

Song Liangchen, who was lying in Song Ziheng's arms, withdrew his waving little hands, and sighed loudly.

Su Wan pinched his little cheek: "Why are you sighing?"

Song Liangchen said with a serious expression: "I'm counting when Grandpa and the others will come again."

"Have you figured it out? When?"

Song Liangchen spat out a few words: "A long, long time later."

Su Wan: "Hehe." It was her fault for believing a three-year-old child.

Song Ziheng patted Song Liangchen instead: "Don't bully your mother."

"Mother is so stupid." These words almost became Song Liangchen's catchphrase, but in front of Song Ziheng, he also knew how to restrain himself, he only complained about this sentence, and then obediently replied, "When the baby in the mother's belly is born , Grandpa and the others are back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Liangchen was put on the ground by Song Ziheng, and he held his hand instead: "You are such an adult, you can walk by yourself."

Song Liangchen wrinkled his little nose and protested: "Father is biased!"

"Why am I biased?"

"You love my mother, not me."

"I don't want your father to hold me all the time."

Song Liangchen frowned suddenly and didn't know what to reply. Song Ziheng smiled lightly and held Su Wan's hand: "Today, Muxiu, will you accompany your wife for a walk on the street?"

Youdao is the first birth and the second familiarity. Although Su Wan's pregnancy with the second child was a bit of a toss, it did not make people helpless. After the first three months passed smoothly, the little guy in Su Wan's stomach also began to calm down.

It was the end of the year in a blink of an eye, and Su Wan was less than six months pregnant. She usually wore loose clothes, and it was windy in the morning and evening. With a cape, she still looked slim.

Su Wan was sitting in the living room listening to the report.

"Ma'am, all the New Year's goods have been purchased, and all the New Year's gifts to be sent back to Beijing and my hometown have also been prepared. Please have a look at the gift list."

Madam Liu handed over the gift list, Su Wan took it and looked at it for a while, and Mama Liu said in a low voice: "Because the merchant ships came down a few years ago, Madam made a lot of profits, so this old slave compares the gift list in previous years without authorization." , and an additional [-] to [-] percent."

Su Wan nodded: "You've done a good job, let's just leave it at that. I'll have someone transport it to Guangzhou tomorrow, but I'll just ask the shopkeeper of Su Ji Liquor Shop to arrange an escort to send it back."

"I'm afraid it won't take half a month for the Escort to deliver the goods." Liu Ma said with a smile, "Since we have come to Guangzhou for business, it will be much more convenient for us to deliver things on weekdays."

"That's not true." Su Wan smiled and asked again, "Is there anything else?"

"There are only gift lists and invitations from various prefectures left. It doesn't matter much. Madam only needs to take a look at it. It's better to let Daniel talk about the business first."

Da Niu didn't shirk when he heard the words, and said in a calm and unhurried manner: "Miss, there is nothing wrong with anyone else, just one thing. As usual, masters have a holiday when the twelfth lunar month comes. Naturally, it is not easy for our family to make an exception, so we also invite you Miss decides when to have a holiday."

Su Wan raised her eyebrows: "What about my husband, should he decide this matter?"

"I'm afraid my uncle will be unable to get away now. There are many official affairs to be dealt with at the end of the year, and it is estimated that a school will be built at the beginning of the year. It has to be finalized before the government seals the pen, and there are caravans going to sea to be rewarded and appeased. Such trivialities are unbearable. "

"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot. In a few days, the government will be closed."

Liu Ma also laughed and said: "Don't tell me, the old slave didn't even think about it. Today's saints are diligent and don't close their pens until the end of the year. Naturally, adults have to follow the saints. Now that they are in office, everyone has followed the adults. , according to the usual practice, it is normal to close the pen on the first day of the twelfth lunar month, and it seems that the government will not open until after the Lantern Festival!"

Su Wan nodded, this can be regarded as the welfare of the magistrates, adding up the years and years, it is estimated that there are about [-] days of vacation.

After thinking for a while, Su Wan said: "Since that's the case, let's give the masters a holiday tomorrow. Don't forget to prepare generous gifts, and then send a carriage to take the masters back to their hometown."

Daniel nodded: "Yes, miss."

"Speaking of it this way, the children can pack up their things and send them home. A while ago, Dashuan's mother asked the old slave if she could let her go home for the New Year."

"There are not enough carriages, let's send the masters first. As for the children, let them go to the street to have fun for a few days. After all, they are boys, and it's time to see the world. It's not good to be locked up in the backyard like a girl every day." .”

Liu Ma smiled and said: "Madam is very considerate, and I happen to have a few days free, so I can urge Xiuniang to get the children's New Year clothes out first."

The wives are on vacation, and the children have all returned to their hometown. At first, it had no effect on Su Wan. After all, she rarely saw them on weekdays. At first, the children often came. Later, when she became pregnant, the children also started to go to school. Books are never out of hand, except for holidays, she doesn't often come to her house on weekdays, except of course Song Liangchen.

Song Liangchen usually greeted him three times a day, since Su Wan suffered from pregnancy sickness, the family of three had dinner together, Song Ziheng took the opportunity to test Song Liangchen's homework, and the little guy went back to his room after eating.But now that the little friends are gone, Song Liangchen came to torment Su Wan, and came to Su Wan with a book in his arms, with a serious expression on his face.

"Look at this posture, are you going to be a master?"

Song Liangchen was quite serious, and put away his iconic smile, with a delicate little face, he said: "Father said, the baby in mother's womb is very smart, and can understand what I say, tell me to start talking about it from now on." Teach it to read every day."

Su Wan asked with a smile, "How do you plan to teach?"

Song Liangchen didn't answer her, but opened the book and read aloud: "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind..."

Su Wan: ...

At night, Song Ziheng was about to blow out the lamp to take a rest, but was stopped by Su Wan: "Sir, why are you blowing up the lamp so early, I'm not sleepy yet."

Song Ziheng glanced at the clock. It was brought back from the merchant ship last time. Although it was a bit bulky and not too delicate to look at, it was more useful than a pocket watch, and it was even more incomparable to an hourglass. You can see the time when you look up when you put it in the room. Wan liked it when she saw it, and moved back to her house without saying a word.

Song Ziheng couldn't help being surprised: "It's four quarters since the capital was garrisoned, and the lady usually falls asleep at this time, so why aren't you sleepy today?"

Su Wan replied to him with a smile: "You are in good spirits."

"What did the lady do during the day?"

"You did a good job. You asked Liangchen to read to me. He read for a whole day, but I felt sleepy when I listened to it." Su Wan spread her hands, "So I accidentally slept all day."

In fact, Su Wan was a little sad and indignant. When she was pregnant with her first child, Song Ziheng often read in front of her. It was called prenatal education. He read books that made people sleepy, but he kept her from sleeping. It's just tormenting.
