Set out on an expedition (1)

  The two people's fierce quarrel eventually subsided into a gentle conversation, and Yan'er had already lost.

  Outside the door, Feng He looked at Murong Bai with a difficult expression.

  "Shixion will have a way to calm down Yan'er." Murong Bai went out and didn't want to listen to their quarrel anymore.

  Fenghe was anxious outside the house, thinking that Jiangjun's noble status would make it normal for him to take a wife. She couldn't understand why Yan'er was so agitated. This was the imperial city, where one couldn't even stand upright without the shade of a big tree.

  "What happened today, don't spread it out privately." Feng He being the head housekeeper, naturally handled things carefully and with discretion. Although these few gatekeeping maids were quite clever, it was better to remind them again not to talk too much.

  "Yes." Several little maids immediately assented.

  Baili Muru walked in with a smile on her face, carrying a lunchbox: "Yan'er, look!"

  She had been leaning on the bed since Pan Yueyang left, maintaining a posture for a long time. Now that Mu Bai suddenly appeared, she turned her head and her neck was sore.

  Baili Muru deliberately ignored the sorrow and tear stains on her face: "Yan'er, I'm hungry, let's go have some food."

  He didn't go to see Yan'er, put down the food box on the red wood table and gently pulled it over, it fell in front of Yan'er's bed. He picked up the food box from the ground, with a look like he hadn't eaten for a long time: "Crystal elbow? Wow, I haven't had this for ages..."

  Her face turned away again, ignoring Bai Li Mowei.

  She arranged a table of dishes, looked at Wanwan and took a stool to sit opposite her: "Come on, eat! After eating, you'll have more energy to scold him!"

  Hehe~

  These words made Yan's face smile and squeezed out some tears, but it was unclear whether this was sadness or joy.

  "Mu Bai, you're so good, I'm really hungry." Pregnant women are relatively prone to hunger, she's already two months along and the morning sickness is getting less.

  "I knew you were hungry!" Bai Li Mu Bai almost forgot for a moment that Yan Er was his younger sister-in-law.

  Her face was flushed, and she had been in a state of excitement for the whole afternoon. Although she wasn't as excited now, she still couldn't help but think about Pan Yueyang. Despite saying that she wanted to leave the mansion, she actually didn't want to part with him. She took a sip of water first, then Yan'er looked at Mu Bai with some embarrassment and picked up a piece of meat.

  "Hey, come on, eat with gusto! Don't be so polite, there's no outsider here, look at me!" As he spoke, Baili Muru stretched out his hand and grabbed a large piece of pork shoulder, stuffing it into his mouth and chewing loudly.

  "Haha, who wants to learn from you!" Yan's words were followed by her rolling up her sleeves, extending two fingers, and picking up a piece of braised pork belly: "Mmm, so delicious!" As soon as the pork entered her mouth, its fragrance wafted out.

  Baili Muru did not continue, quietly watching as Yan Er's fragrant food started to be eaten, his heart felt more at ease.

  Wait until she had almost finished eating, then busied herself pouring water into her teacup: "Have a sip of water, don't choke."

  If Rong Yu didn't give Yan a medical treatment, if she had to fight for Yan herself, would the tear-stained Yan in front of her still be that gentle and desireless Yan? Would she be happier then?

  Bai Li couldn't help but stare at Mo Bai's captivating appearance, even when she was eating, her face looked so good. His heart skipped a beat again, he truly liked her.

  "Cherish... eat slowly."

  Looking at Mu Bai who was about to speak but hesitated, Yan'er lowered his head and continued eating. He must have something to say to himself besides letting himself eat.

  "I really envy Shixiong, he was born with everything, compared to us ordinary children, how lucky he is. But I understand Shixiong," Mu Bai said halfway through and deliberately looked at Yan'er's reaction, fortunately, there was no unusual response.

  Clang! The cup was empty again, and Mu Bai continued to refill it with water for her.

  "But when we were chasing and playing, enjoying our childhood, Brother Mu never participated. Mu Bai lowered his head with some sadness: 'Every time I secretly looked at him, he was practicing writing, reading maps, and reading military books. At such a young age, he never had the freedom to waste his time like ordinary children.'"

  Her face stiffened for a moment, then she picked up her chopsticks and began eating the green beans one by one, at a somewhat slow pace.

  "Every time I think about it, I realize that I'm lucky. What's the point of being born with wealth and honor above all others? There are many things he had to give up. At that time, General would often come to visit Shixiong when he was free, and we children were all envious of him - a majestic general father, the eldest son of the family, born with intelligence above ordinary people..."

  "Drink up!" He downed the water in one gulp.

  Mo Bai only got halfway through his cup: "We started to envy his family, his father. So I always snuck a peek at the door when General Pan came to visit my brother, and every time...my brother was kneeling on the ground, straight as a rod. The old general never let me have the satisfaction of envying my brother. All my childhood memories of them, father and son, were of him scolding my brother. That's when I realized that no matter how hard my brother tried, he would never be able to meet his father's expectations."

  "What's the point of telling me all this?" Yan'er had stopped eating and just sat there.

  "I was going to say... no matter how high his position is, no matter how much we ordinary people envy him, he can't escape the fate he was born with. His life, which started with glory and wealth, with power and nobility, was destined to be lived according to what others had given him!" Ba Li Mu Bai said in one breath, not even daring to breathe, afraid of missing a single subtle movement on his face.

  Her face was staring blankly at Baili Muru, her expression covered with a layer of sympathy.

  "Forgive Brother, I heard everything you said in the room today." Baili Muru's heart relaxed a bit, her face was worried about Brother, just now she was moved by her own words.

  "I'm a wild child, I didn't have parents since I was young, it was my senior brother who picked me up from the mountain and river. In the 23 years of getting along with my senior brother, just like what he said to you, I've never seen him treat any woman like he treats you. He's noble, and has never humbled himself in front of a woman. If he wanted to, he could have had many more women and concubines. Why is he so concerned about you? Think carefully." Mu Bai poured herself some water, having spoken so much that she was getting thirsty.

  "What about the frown?" She still remembered that there was a Mrs. Frown before she came.

  "That was given by others, they are officials, if you don't accept it, it's equivalent to making an enemy." The woman is really scary, Baili Muru pouted.

  "Mu Bai, I want to eat some cherries too." Yan's face suddenly turned into a flattering expression.

  Baili Murong's mouth suddenly split open, he knew that this sentence was equivalent to Yaner saying to him: She understood, she forgave her Shixiong.

  "Alright! I'll go get it!" said Baili Muru, standing up.

  "Who told you to take it?" The voice rang out as Bailing quickly walked away: "I asked him to bring it for me!" Yaner had a bit of a childish personality.

  "Face, it's a bit difficult..." Bai Mu turned his head and looked at her with a worried expression: "But I'll go try?" He said, quickly walking out.

  Her face was full, and she had spirit too. Mu Bai's words of persuasion also took effect, and she somewhat resigned herself to her fate. As long as the two people loved each other, it was good, and they could be together forever.

  "Wind Lotus?"

  "Madam, what instructions?" Feng He was overjoyed. The whole afternoon, the madam had been cooped up in her room. It seemed that Mo Bai young master was indeed formidable and had actually managed to placate the madam.

  "Comb me, comb me."

  Feng He quickly took out a set of clothes and had Yan'er change into them, then ordered someone to bring over water and began to comb Yan'er's hair.

  "I heard someone is going to eat cherries." Pan Yu Yang's eyes sparkled.

  "General." Feng He recognized each other and left the room.

  Seeing him holding a plate of cherries in his hand, Yan'er picked up the comb and continued to comb her hair on purpose without looking at him, hypocritically saying: "I didn't say I wanted to eat it, it's what he thought."

  "Mu Bai just told me that someone wants to eat some fruit, what did Mu Bai tell you?" Pan Yu Yang was still holding the fruit plate and standing at the door.

  After waiting for a while, seeing his face didn't think of caring about him, she put down her pride and walked into the room.

  "Our children want to eat what, as parents we must satisfy!" Pan Yu Yang was already behind Yan Er, using a big hand to gently wipe away the tears on her face that she hadn't had time to wash: "Yan Er, don't be so willful in the future, when you cry, my heart aches."

  Her face flushed with a smile, happiness had already spread, making her forget everything...

  These days, they got along very well and it can be said that the feelings between the two people have been increasing day by day. Although Yan had a knot in her heart, as long as Yuexing treated herself with such sincerity, perhaps this knot would slowly untie itself.

  Pan Yu Yang, who had just returned from the morning court session, walked straight into the garden. As soon as she arrived, she heard that Yan Er was in the garden basking in the sun.

  The two of them were indeed affectionate, just as Pan Yueyang said he didn't take the engagement to heart. As long as he had a pretty face in his heart, that was enough, so this arranged marriage matter quickly faded away between the two of them.

  "Brother Yang!" Yan Er saw him walking towards her and stood up with a smile.

  "Little thing, it's still so hot outside, why did you run out to sun yourself?" Pinching her small nose, with endless pampering.

  "Hmm, I'm almost asleep, walk with me." Yan'er pulled on his large hand.

  "Okay." Lowering her head, she glanced at her belly that hadn't swollen yet and felt a bit embarrassed.

  Two people stroll in the garden, infinite warmth...

  "General Pan... General!" The two turned their heads back, and a figure in the distance shouted urgently, with footsteps moving swiftly.

  A sweating messenger knelt down at Pan Yueyang's feet, panting heavily.

  "The border is in an uproar! The Emperor...the Emperor orders the General to hurry quickly...hurry quickly to Xīnán Yuè Chéng!"
