Sick Man Turns Out to be a General

After Mu Chen came back, he had always been at home with Shen Jingli and his, and he even frequently shared a room with his family of three. When Nanny Zhao found out about this, she was afraid that they would not know the severity of the matter and hurt her child.    

    

"Madam, please listen to this old servant's advice. "You are pregnant, but you can't keep bullying the lord for your own selfish reasons. If you hurt the child, I'm afraid you will regret it for the rest of your life."    

    

After lunch, the Nanny Zhao took the opportunity when Shen Jingli was taking a stroll in the courtyard to specially run over to advise him, "There are many wives that come to the capital like this, and have always been doted upon and respected by their husband.    

    

The Nanny Zhao spoke with sincerity, and Shen Jingli knew that she meant well. The truth was indeed as she said, all the great ladies of this era had done the same, but this did not mean that he had to be like them.    

    

He had worked hard to bear Mu Shisi's children. He slept with him at night and took care of him.    

    

"Momo, don't worry, we will know our limits." Shen Jingli tactfully rejected her good intentions.    

    

If the Nanny Zhao failed to persuade Shen Jingli, she would just turn to Mu Chen and start with him. Thinking about how Mu Chen was so doting on him and was so concerned about the child Shen Jingli was carrying, she would definitely agree.    

    

"Fourteenth Master, Madam is carrying two babies right now, so it is inconvenient for us to move to her room." Fourteenth Master, Madam is carrying two babies right now, so it is inconvenient for us to move to her room.    

    

All of these things that the Nanny Zhao had mentioned were all done according to the rules of a large family. She felt that it was a matter of course, but she didn't know that Mu Chen and Shen Jingli were not an ordinary couple.    

    

When Mu Chen heard this, he frowned unhappily. What did she mean by that? For him to let Shen Jingli, who was unable to sleep soundly because of his pregnancy, go and find a concubine to have fun with him?    

    

"Nanny Zhao, on the account that you were sent here by the madame, I will let you off this time. Do not bring this up again in the future." Mu Chen said in a serious tone, "Just do your own thing, and don't worry about anything else."    

    

"Master …"    

    

"Back to work." Mu Chen raised his voice and shouted sternly.    

    

The Nanny Zhao was anxious, why were the husband and husband being so stubborn, did they not listen to others' advice?    

    

Since Mu Chen was nice to her, and she took care of Shen Jingli at night, how could she do as the Nanny Zhao said? She wouldn't do what the Nanny Zhao said, as she had injured the child in her womb, so she didn't pay attention to the Nanny Zhao at all.    

    

Nanny Zhao was even more depressed, she felt that it was because the servants of County Prince's Mansion were stupid that Shen Jingli did something so outrageous.    

    

She was still holding back her anger. When she took a rest at night, she couldn't help but complain to Senior Servant Qian, "Tell me, I've always thought of them with all my heart. If they don't appreciate my kindness, then so be it." Instead, she thought I was nosy. Sigh, exactly why did I come all the way here to the Jinling City? "    

    

Qian mama, who was making up her blanket, lowered her head when she heard her words. She secretly mocked Nanny Zhao for being stupid, but she said, "Elder sister, why are you so worried? Master and Madam have their own sense of propriety, we will do whatever they say. It's good not to worry about others. "    

    

When Nanny Zhao heard this, she felt that it did make sense, but she had come to take care of Madam, but she did not succeed in doing anything.    

    

She still wanted to say something, but seeing how unconcerned Qian mama was made her even more uncomfortable. Could it be that she was the one tormenting herself?    

    

Annoyed, she turned to make her own bed, washed her face, and went to bed.    

    

Everyday, he would wake up early to boil some water for them to wash up. He would even keep his eyes on Shen Jingli to see if there was anything wrong with his body, and whether or not it would affect the children.    

    

With regards to Nanny Zhao's loyal actions, Shen Jingli only felt that it was a little heavy, like life in a prison.    

    

However, as expected of an experienced mama, just by observing her on a regular basis, she was able to notice a lot of details that Jin Yu and Nian Hua had not noticed before. She took good care of Shen Jingli and her petite body gained a bit of weight, making Mu Chen very happy.    

    

The Nanny Zhao was very happy, so she took care of Shen Jingli with all her might. She didn't know whether she was jealous or not, but after seeing the Nanny Zhao get rewarded, Qian mama suddenly became more active and started to wander in front of Shen Jingli all day long. She reminded him to pay attention to this and to that.    

    

Because she gave his all to brush up his feelings of existence, Mu Chen had a good impression of her and gave her a sum of silver as well. Qian mama was even more positive now, and she even took the initiative to report to Mu Chen about Shen Jingli's situation every day.    

    

— —    

    

After promising Xu Yanlin that he would go back to the capital with him, Mu Chen wrote a letter to King Jing, asking him to send some trusted subordinates over to take over Xu Yanlin's position.    

    

Not long after, King Jing sent them a letter, saying that he had already sent someone over, and would be able to reach the Mu Family Village in a few days.    

    

After Xu Yanlin received the news, he was extremely happy. Just thinking of how he would be able to return to the capital and meet his husband made his heart warm.    

    

"Fourteen, before we leave, shouldn't we have a banquet?" Xu Yanlin drank his tea, his face rippling with joy, "Look at how long we have stayed here, we will be leaving in a few days. "No matter what, we have to invite everyone in the village to have a meal together and express our gratitude."    

    

Mu Chen raised her head and looked at him, his gaze sizing him up. After a long while, he said: "I didn't realize that you had such deep feelings for this place."    

    

Xu Yanlin was a little embarrassed by his words, but he had a thick skin and kept it hidden. He continued to smile mischievously and said," Since I've lived here for this long, I still have some feelings for him. And this is your clan, don't you need to greet everyone?    

    

Seeing his indifferent expression, Xu Yanlin scolded him in his heart for being cold-blooded. He then continued: "Besides, treating you to a meal will not cost you much. What do you think? Why don't we start a bonfire party like Great Qi? "    

    

When they were in the northwest, they had sneakily infiltrated into a small city at the borders of Great Qi, and they especially liked holding bonfire parties. As long as it was a large scale festival in Great Qi, the villagers there would all hold bonfire parties, roast meat, drink wine, and sing and dance together.    

    

Xu Yanlin had participated in it once before, and he had never forgotten it ever since.    

    

"I think it's pretty good." Shen Jingli interrupted.    

    

It had been many years since he had attended the bonfire party. The last time he attended it seemed to be when he was still in university. Thinking about it, he felt nostalgic.    

    

"You have eyes. Unlike fourteen, you always keep a straight face and don't show any emotions." Xu Yanlin said to Shen Jingli and even turned his head around, giving Mu Chen a disdainful look.    

    

Shen Jingli laughed and asked: "How do you want to make this bonfire party?"    

    

Xu Yanlin told Shen Jingli in detail about the situation of the bonfire he saw at Great Qi.    

    

When Shen Jingli heard this, he pondered for a moment. Then he said, "We can also set up a barbecue on the spot, and then make a talent show. It must be very lively."    

    

"That's a good idea." Xu Yanlin loved to be noisy, when he heard it he laughed, "You're smart."    

    

The two of them continued to chat and laugh until they had discussed most of the matters regarding the bonfire party. Then, they decided that Xu Yanlin would organize it and end this conversation.    

    

However, Mu Chen had always loved him dearly. As long as it wasn't something too dangerous, he wouldn't reject him.    

    

"..."    

    

Mu Yifann had stayed in the village for a while, then moved back home with Mu Xi and his son. It was probably because his husband had not seen him for a long time, that he was tired of staying in the village for several days.    

    

As a result, they did not know that Shen Jingli and the rest were already discussing about returning to the capital. When they heard about it, Xu Yanlin had already started preparations for the bonfire party quickly.    

    

Qing Sheng couldn't bear to part from Shen Jingli, he almost cried from anxiety and hurriedly ran over to look for Shen Jingli.    

    

"Sister-in-law, why did you leave so soon?" Why didn't you inform us in advance? " Qing Sheng was extremely unwilling to part with Shen Jingli. Holding Shen Jingli's hand, he said, "Could it be that we can't stay for a little longer? I still want to learn from you … "    

    

When Qing Sheng said to the point of being emotional, he could not help but wipe his tears.    

    

Qing Sheng really couldn't bear to part with Shen Jingli. After marrying into the Mu Family Village for such a long time, Shen Jingli was the first person who didn't mind his birth, and was willing to become friends with him, and had even taught him many things. Now that Shen Jingli was going to leave, he felt very sad when he thought that they might never meet again in their entire lives.    

    

It was rare to have a good friend so Shen Jingli was also reluctant to part with him. He patted the back of his hand and said softly, "We've been out for a long time, it's time for us to return. If you have time, just come and find me in the capital. Or, when Mu Yifann becomes a High Scholar, you can all go and live in the capital. "    

    

Actually, Shen Jingli also couldn't bear to part with Qing Sheng, couldn't bear to part with this place. Humans all had their own dependencies. If they stayed here for a long time, they would develop feelings for this place and feel reluctant to leave. However, the world had always been peaceful. It was impossible for them to stay here for the rest of their lives.    

    

"Then let's do it. When I'm free, I'll bring Xi Er to the capital to see you. You have to take me to have a good look around the capital." Qing Sheng pulled Shen Jingli's hand, and repeatedly emphasized.    

    

"Alright." Shen Jingli nodded and promised, "In a few days, at the bonfire party, your family will definitely come. Let's have a good gathering."    

    

"I'll definitely come." Qing Sheng said firmly.
