Slippery pulse.

Qi Yun listened to these two words, reflected for a while, and then realized what this foreshadowed.

Pulse fluency, should refer to smooth, such as beads rolling jade plate shape, the main pregnancy.

Originally, Qi Yun just guessed. After all, the last time Ye Jiao had Xubao, she was sleepy every day. This time he just had a try. Who knows?

Qi Yun unconsciously rubbed his hand on Ye Jiao's belly, but soon loosened it and dared to hold it falsely. The chin that had been placed on the woman's neck was also raised quickly, sitting upright, stiff like a stone statue.

Ye Jiao originally relied on him, and Ye Jiao could feel Qi Yun's subtle changes.

Especially when Qi Yun's arms were stiff, her originally comfortable posture suddenly became stiff. Ye Jiao reached out and touched the man's forearm, feeling that she was not leaning on an individual, but like an armchair.

Ye Jiao could not help turning her head to look at him: "Xianggong, what's the matter?"

Qi Yun's face did not change much, his lips pursed slightly and his voice was slightly low: "Don't move, Niang Niang, now is the critical time."

This makes little ginseng feel a little strange.

The last time I was pregnant with Xu Bao, I ate and slept, and I didn't wake up after sleeping. I wish I could sleep ten hours a day before I was reconciled.

At that time, my husband was not so cautious when she was pregnant.

Why are you so careful now?

Ye Jiao couldn't help being nervous, pressed her hand on the back of his hand, and looked longingly at Qi Yun: "what's the importance?" Can't move yet. Is there something wrong with it? "

"what's wrong with it, Niao Niang? it's all right." Qi Yun was afraid that she would say something stupid and wanted to cover her mouth, but his hands were pressed by a woman and could not move. He simply bowed his head and kissed Ye Jiao firmly on the lips.

This made Xiao Su immediately bow her head. She was still happy that the second mistress was pregnant again, but who knew the two masters began to shake people's eyes again.

But after a long time, Xiao Su also knew what to look at and what not to look at, and now it was obviously the wrong time to look, and she remembered to cover Xu Bao's eyes.

Although Xubao did not know the reason, he also bowed his head, smiling only when he was playing a game with sister Xiao Su, and his round face was shining with sunshine.

Ye Jiao held her head high and kissed him, and when she was waiting for her lips, she murmured, "then you have to tell me, don't scare me, it makes you not sleepy."

Qi Yun looked at Xiao Su and Xubao over there, and then came to Ye Jiao's ear and whispered, "We fooled around in the middle of the night yesterday, afraid …". I'm afraid you're not feeling well. "

Oh, that.

Ye Jiao did not worry as soon as she heard this. She comfortably re-stuffed herself into Qi Yun's arms and slowly replied, "it doesn't matter, I'm fine."

The last time I had Xubao, neither of them had any experience and didn't find a child at all. At that time, Qi Yun also made trouble with her and nothing happened. This time Ye Jiao felt her pulse and felt that she was very healthy, so she didn't take it to heart.

But Qi Yun still dared not neglect her, protecting Ye Jiao all the way for fear that the carriage might hurt her. When Ye Jiao fell asleep, he also let Ye Jiao lie on her leg, while Qi Yun protected her waist with one hand and supported her head with the other. It was like a big baby lying on her leg that was easily broken by touch.

Tiezi rode to the town after knowing that Ye Jiao was pregnant and invited Li Langzhong to give her second daughter-in-law a good look.

When the matter was urgent, Tiezi didn't care about walking slowly with Li Langzhong. He directly pulled Li Lang on the horse and went home quickly.

As a result, by the time the Qi family arrived, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao's carriage had not yet arrived.

The gray-haired Li Lang was agitated, and his legs trembled when he got off the horse. Looking at Tiezi, he reached out and patted him on the forehead: "son of a bitch, is this for people to see a doctor or to kill me?" If a man of his age is broken, who will prescribe medicine for you in the future? "

Tiezi knew he was wrong and smiled at Li Langzhong for fear that he would be angry, so he leaned over to cheer up with Li Lang: "what's the lesson, sir? why don't you beat me up and calm down?"

Li Langzhong was not really angry with him, but when he had gasped for breath, he stood up and handed the medicine box to Tiezi: "come on, it's not my doctor to break you. I'll give it to you and carry it on your back."

Tiezi immediately memorized the medicine box and asked Li Langzhong to go to the vestibule.

When the two went in, Fang was taking his wife with him to see Zhuangzi in charge in the vestibule.

As the Spring Festival is coming, the tenants on Zhuangzi also have to hand out some wax money. Qi Zhao is really insensitive to numbers and finally has to rely on Fang to help him.

Fang is very good at doing this, she attaches great importance to silver, never give a single coin at random, careful and careful, every sum of money can be calculated accurately.

When Tiezi and Li Lang came in, Fang just finished counting the last portion of wax money.

When Fang saw them coming together, he could not help standing up and asked, "what's the matter?" Is my second brother not feeling well? "

This made the manager of Chuang Tzu nervous. Nowadays, Qi Yun's wine shop is closely related to that of her husband Qi Dalang. Selling grain to the wine shop to make wine really makes Chuang Tzu earn too much money. Chuang Tzu naturally hopes that Master Qi can live healthily to be 140 years old.

Tiezi said hurriedly, "No, the second young master is in good health. It's a good thing to invite the doctor this time."

Fang was stupefied for a moment and looked at Li Lang, but Li Lang kept his mouth shut.

The woman was careful, and soon Fang saw that the good thing about being able to hire a doctor was that it was mostly a woman's pregnancy, but it was usually hard to have a baby, and you couldn't talk casually when you didn't settle down, so as not to collide with your joy. Fang immediately let the steward go back first, and he hurried to the backyard to invite his mother-in-law to come over.

Soon after, the carriage finally returned to Qi's family, but no one came down for a long time.

The rickshaw driver was a little confused and was about to ask, but he saw that as soon as the curtain was lifted, Xiao Su took Xu Bao and got out of the carriage first. she looked at the coachman and said, "go back first." Then he took a string of coins and gave it to the rickshaw driver as a reward.

The rickshaw driver was busy next, leaving with a smile, while Xiao Su picked up the sleeping Xu Bao and wrapped the young master tightly with a blanket to avoid passing the wind, so he quickly went back to the yard.

On the bus, Ye Jiao was rubbing Qi Yun's legs.

Just because Ye Jiao was resting on his leg Rest, Qi Yun did not move again. When the carriage stopped, Ye Jiao sat up comfortably, but Qi Yun's legs were numb.

After rubbing it for a long time, didn't feel any pain, but it was still sour and numb, and had mixed feelings when touched it.

Ye Jiao pressed his leg and whispered, "Xianggong, if you feel uncomfortable next time, you can wake me up. Don't always wronge yourself."

Qi Yun smiled at Ye Jiao, but said nothing.

The little ginseng couldn't help looking at him: "Why didn't you say yes?"

Qi Yun stretched out his hand, gently hugged Ye Jiao's body and said in a slow voice, "I was staring at you just now. I was so fascinated that I forgot the discomfort on my leg."

When Ye Jiao heard the words, she was neither shy nor evasive. instead, she leaned over, carefully examined Qi Yun's face, and then laughed, "my husband is also good-looking. If I stare at you, I'm afraid I'll be fascinated."

It is often not gratifying for a man to be praised about his appearance, or at least Qi Yun does not think there is anything to praise about a good pair of skin.

This face is given by his parents, and praising his face is to praise his parents for treating him well and giving him a good face. it would be better to praise him that the shop can make more money and make him more happy.

It's just that when these words came out of Ye Jiao's mouth, Qi Yun was very useful.

He leaned over to kiss Ye Jiao on the cheek, but he moved slightly and felt numb on his legs, which made Qi Yun fix his figure directly.

Ye Jiao patted him: "it's better to go down and take a walk. It's always impossible to sit like this." With that, I wanted to lift the curtain and go out.

But Qi Yun grabbed her and slowed down her voice: "just wait, Niang Niang, I'll go down first." Help you. "

Ye Jiao sat obediently at the door of the car, watching Qi Yun get out of the car with a tangled expression, and then smiled to help his men get out of the carriage.

However, Little Ginseng does not feel how weak she is now. on the contrary, she feels that her husband needs more help.

When the arms of the two people who wanted to help each other were intertwined and helped each other forward, they happened to meet Qi Zhao, who had also just returned home.

Qi Dalang is still very happy today. The snow this year is thick, and the harvest in the new year will certainly be good. Zhuangzi has made a lot more entries than in previous years, and Qi Zhao walks with wind.

But as soon as he entered the gate, he saw two people walking slowly.

Qi Zhao immediately felt nervous, immediately came forward, held the arm of his brother, who was always weak and sick, and asked, "Jiro, is there something wrong with you?"

Qi Yun was stupefied: "Big Brother, I didn't."

"come on, I'll help you in. How can you be moved by a sister-in-law?" Qi Zhao said as he tightened Qi Yun's arm.

Qi Yun wanted to explain, but when Qi Zhao pulled him away, he was not gentle at all. he walked with a great stride, and the sore feeling on his legs made Qi Erlang "hiss" and couldn't say anything.

Then, he was dragged to the vestibule by Qi Zhao.

Ye Jiao looked blankly at her empty hand, then looked at the two brothers who had gone far away, and hurriedly quickened her pace to catch up.

When the three men entered the vestibule with their front and back feet, they saw several pairs of sparkling eyes.

Ye Jiao a Leng, originally stepped into the threshold of the foot consciousness back, Qi Erlang is finally explained clearly to Qi Zhao, turned around to hold Ye Jiao's hand.

But Fang reacted faster, got up and grabbed Ye Jiao's other arm and said with a smile, "it's cold outside for a long time. Come on, come on in." Then he looked back and asked, "where's Xubao? didn't you come with me?"

Ye Jiao just entered the door and asked in a low voice, "he's asleep. I'll let Xiao Su carry him back first." Is there anything else between sister-in-law and mother? Why don't my husband and I go back to the yard first? "

"it's all right. We're just waiting for you here." Liu smiled and waved. "come, Niao Niang, come and sit next to me."

When Ye Jiao heard the words, she let go of Fang's hand and pulled Qi Yun to Liu's side.

Li Langzhong immediately came forward, arched his hand, took out the pulse pillow, and then smiled and said to Ye Jiao, "second Lady, please hold out your hand."

Qi Yun loosened Ye Jiao's hand, and the little ginseng obediently put her wrist on the pulse pillow.

Li Lang sat down, gently clasped Ye Jiao's wrist on his fingertips, narrowed his eyes slightly, and soon got up with a smile: "Congratulations to the second young lady, the second young master, this is undoubtedly a happy pulse, about more than a month."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun felt that his waist was no longer sore, his legs did not hurt, and the whole person was jubilant.

Liu took Ye Jiao's hand with a smile, patted it gently, and said in his mouth, "good, very good, Ma Liu, prepare a reward for Li Lang." As he said that, there were tears in his eyes, just wipe it off with a veil, and his smile continued unabated.

Fang and Qi Zhao also came up to congratulate, especially Fang, took an envious look at Ye Jiao, thinking that there was really no one in this blessing of his brother and sister-in-law, and he could not come with envy.

It's just that Li Lang didn't leave right away, but when both Liu and Fang gathered around Ye Jiao to ask for warmth, they gently said to Qi Yun, "second young master, have a word."

Qi Yun's face was smiling, but he immediately smiled at Li Langzhong's words, but did not disturb others. Now everyone's eyes were fixed on Ye Jiao, and Qi Yun and Li Langzhong went to one side without anyone noticing.

After making sure that no one noticed here, Li Langzhong whispered, "second young master, the second young lady is a little different."

On hearing this, Qi Yun immediately tightened his expression, and his voice was a little hard: "Why, unstable?"

Li Lang hesitated for a moment and shook his head. "it's not unstable, it feels stable, but it's just slightly different from the usual pulse." Now the month is shallow, there is nothing, but this month we should take good care of it, don't bump it, and it won't hurt to be careful. "

He left half of what he said, but did not say it fully.

After all, the matter of pulse diagnosis is based on experience, and more of it is just speculation, and we have to wait to know the details.

Qi Yun nodded solemnly and dared not slack off for half a minute.

From this day on, Ye Jiao's life will be relaxed quickly.

You don't have to worry about things at home, and there is help in preparing for the Spring Festival. Even if you usually dress and wash with your mouth, Qi Yun will take care of everything for her.

Early that morning, Qi Yun chose clothes for her, wiped her face with a wet veil, and helped her put on her shoes and socks, which helped her out for two laps.

When she came back, Ye Jiao leaned against the soft couch, looked lazily at Qi Yun behind her desk and said with a smile, "my husband, you are spoiling me so much. I'm afraid I won't do anything in the future."

Qi Yun was flipping through the account books in his hand, smelled the words, looked up at her, and bent the corners of his mouth: "Why, don't you like it?"

The little ginseng thought for a moment: "I like it, but it's just boring to stay like this."

On the other hand, Qi Yun put down his account books, went over and sat sideways to Ye Jiao and said softly, "Li Lang said that these days are critical. Although you are safe and careless, and you are preparing for the Spring Festival outside, there are so many people and so many hands that you will be in trouble if you bump into it."

Ye Jiao tugged at his sleeve: "but you always have to take care of me.". "

"it was my wife who used to take care of me, but now it's my turn to take care of you." Qi Yun kissed his wife's forehead and whispered, "but you don't have to worry. After the New year, we'll go and live in the garden on the mountain. At that time, your month will be big, and you won't be afraid to move. Then you can do whatever you want."

Ye Jiao nodded immediately with a smile on her face.

It was not long before she felt sleepy, rubbed her eyes, leaned slightly on the couch, and slept with a square pillow in her arms.

Qi Yun brought the quilt to cover Ye Jiao, and told Xiao Su to watch some charcoal pots and not to let the smoke smoke people, so he left lightly and went to the side of the small room.

As soon as went in, saw that the manager of Song had been waiting inside, and Qi Yun was about to salute.

But Qi Yun stopped Song's action as soon as he raised his hand, and then the man strode to the table and sat down, his voice much faster than usual: "just talk about it."

The manager of Song also knew what Qi Yun was in a hurry. Usually his young master read the books in his study, but since the second mistress was pregnant with a child, Qi Yun moved things back to the room and did not come out if he could not come out. Even if he went out, he took the second mistress with him, and he could not be separated for a moment.

It was only when the second mistress was on Rest that the young master would come out for a while. Of course, time was tight.

Manager Song immediately got rid of all the polite words and said directly: "I have prepared the money needed to open a shop, and I have found a shopkeeper who is neat and ready to escort. As long as the location is selected, I will be able to leave immediately."

Qi Yun nodded: "Don't worry about the lot. If you have something to do, just go and have a look at each other."

Ye Pingrong mentioned in his letter that there were three shops, most of which were in the hands of the families of demoted Beijing officials. now, although the court still does not allow officials to do business, it is common for officials to have shops in their homes. Chu Chengyun cleaned up the old forces in the dynasty, belittled a lot of people, and there were a lot of stores in Beijing.

Among them, Qi Yun took a fancy to the shop which originally belonged to the Lord Yushitai.

This adult does not have a deep foundation and is eager to sell and cash after being derogated. The price is naturally negotiable, and the location is good. Across the street is the most prosperous restaurant in the capital, Linxianlou, where wine will be easy to do business.

The manager of Song hesitated for a moment before he asked, "Young Master, who do you want to see?"

Now, Qi Yun is worried about Ye Jiao, and the manager of Song Dynasty knows that he is old. I'm afraid he can't bear the tiredness of this round and round trip, and he won't be able to go.

Qi Yun had a candidate for a long time: "Tiezi has been with me for a long time and has learned a lot. Now let him take people over to have a look."

In fact, with the help of Ye Pingrong, there is no need to send people to the shop.

It's just that Qi Yun is determined to cultivate iron, this time is to give him a chance to go out to see the world, to go there, to know how to deal with some human feelings.

Song manager Wen Yan also nodded: "Tiezi is safe, but if you go out, only such a close person called by the nickname may not work, should also have a big name."

Hearing the speech, Qi Yun nodded and called Tiezi in.

Tiezi was already standing at the door, and he heard all the words clearly inside, and without Qi Yun's question, Tiezi said, "second young master, I don't have a big name."

In fact, in the village, most of them are called by nicknames, and when they grow up, they will be called Wang Wu and Zhao Si according to their ranking, which is usually not a big name.

Just like the Ye family, the name of Ye Pingrong was changed after he went to the battlefield, because of his meritorious service in killing the enemy and getting the green eyes above. And that Ye Jilang is still only named Ye Jilang.

Tiezi was originally surnamed Su, and the sixth in his family was called Su Liulang, but now thinking that his master was going to change his name, he was naturally happy and looked eagerly at Qi Yun.

Qi Yun thought about it and said, "Iron, black gold, upright and unswerving, not as good as Shan Mingzheng?"

Zheng, Su Zheng.

Tiezi turned the name in his head, then immediately laughed and saluted Qi Li: "Master Xie."

Qi Yun smiled, called Tiezi over and told him carefully, then asked the Song steward to pick out a few capable people for him, and waited until the end of the New year to enter Beijing.

When he couldn't come back for a month or two, Qi Yun let Tiezi go home these days to accompany his parents for the Spring Festival.

After Tiezi left, Qi Yun said to Song, "do you have any results on the Lu family industry that I asked you to check before?"

The manager of Song nodded: "it is clear that there is not much property in his family. Before that, he just sat back and sold a lot of land and shops, but now there is only one storefront in the city. He sells some pen, ink and inkstone, and the income is still considerable."

Qi Yun said nothing, but just pointed his fingertips on the table, and then said, "is there a shop around there?"

"Yes, there is a tea shop. It's not big. It's right next door."

When Qi Yun heard the speech, he said, "well, tell them that there is no need to open for the Spring Festival these days. It will be changed into a steamed stuffed bun shop. Once it has been changed and reopened, it will be more solemn. Please come over for the dragon and lion dance. Don't be afraid of spending money. I can make up for what is not enough." When it opens, find a few waiters who can yell, and those with a loud voice will double the money. "

The manager of Song could not help saying, "second Young Master, although that place is in the city, it is remote and there are not many people coming and going. It may be OK to open a tea shop to have a rest, but this steamed stuffed bun shop still has to be opened in a place with a dense flow of people in order to make a living."

Qi Erlang looked faint and said, "I didn't expect it to make money. As long as the shop of the Lu family was closed, the steamed stuffed bun shop would not have to be opened."

Song Guan was stupefied in advance, and then he thought about it and then understood what Qi Yun meant.

The shop of the four treasures of the study needs the most seclusion and elegance in order to be patronized, but if there is a steamed stuffed bun shop that yells with itself every day and smells fragrant, I am afraid the literati will not be willing to come again.

After a long time, it will not be able to hold up.

Song manager thought, it seems that the Lu family is really offended their own second young master, otherwise they would not be half-hearted.

But the manager of Song stopped asking questions about many things, but left after settling accounts with Qi Yun.

Qi Yun immediately left the room and was ready to return to the bedroom.

Counting the time, it was time for Ye Jiao to wake up. Qi Yun was completely out of Lu's steamed stuffed bun shop. She only thought that her wife had said she wanted to eat shredded eel soup, and she didn't know if she had made it in the kitchenette.

But far away, Qi Yun saw Liu's wife standing there in the corridor.

She seemed to have been waiting for a while. When she saw Qi Yun coming, she greeted him with a smile and said politely, "second Young Master, my wife asked me to bring this."

"what is this?"

"early this morning, the lady went to the temple to ask for a peace charm, saying that she would bring it to the second young lady and the second young master to bless Shunsui and be safe."

If it had been before, Qi Yun would not have believed this, and if it was really useful, the safety and happiness of his parents would have almost filled the drawers, and he would still be ill. I think it is because the Buddha is not very able to take care of the little things in the world.

But now he was worried about Ye Jiao, and now he believed it if he didn't believe it. After that, he said to Mrs. Liu, "go back and thank your mother and mother for me. Just say we'll take it and take it with us all the time."

Mrs. Liu answered, then did not stay any longer, turned and left.

On the other hand, Qi Yun pushed open the door and went into the bedroom.

Ye Jiao didn't wake up at this time, lying on the soft couch and sleeping soundly.

When Xiao Su saw him come in, she retreated out, while Qi Yun sat next to Ye Jiao and gently plucked the broken hair from Xiao Ginseng's face, revealing his pink and white face.

Qi Yun smiled, gently kissed her, but didn't bother her much. He quickly retreated and sat aside so as not to disturb Ye Jiao's clear dream. Seeing Ye Jiao's purse mumbling and falling asleep, he bowed his head and pulled down his purse tied around his waist.

This purse was hung up by Qi Yun for several years. It had the ears beaten by Ye Jiao, and it was the first one. It looked askew. Even though Ye Jiao's ears looked much better now, Qi Yun was not willing to replace this one.

The things in the purse, according to what Qi Yun thought, was the amulet Ye Jiao asked for herself before.

But when he opened his purse and was about to put what Liu begged into it, he saw that there was something black in it in addition to the amulet.

Qi Yun reached in and pinched it out and saw that it was a piece of hair.

It is slender, soft and feels like satin.
