Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 196: A Short Stay

Li Jing didn’t spend much effort to convince Empress Qiao.

Lu Mingyu was also happy.

She was good at talking and was not afraid of arguing with others.

However, if the problem could be solved peacefully, who would want to live with spikes all day long?

Qiyun led the maids to pack clothes and gifts, filling up a whole carriage.

After Lu Mingyu got married, she rarely rode a horse and mostly took the carriage. Today, when she was returning to the Lu Mansion, she was in a really good mood. She wore a red martial arts uniform and rode a maroon horse. Her high spirits were extremely bright and charming.

Li Jing looked at his newlywed wife, and the smile in his eyes almost overflowed.

At this moment, the main gate of the Third Prince’s Mansion also opened.

A familiar figure appeared in front of him.

It was Li Hao who came out with a horse. It looked like he was going to ride a horse to play or hunt. This was what it was like to live next door. They had to see him wherever they looked. It was impossible to avoid him completely.

Li Jing glanced at Lu Mingyu from a distance and said, “I’ll go say hello to my third brother.”

Lu Mingyu smiled and nodded slightly, obviously not intending to go with him.

Li Jing didn’t force it, and went to the gate of the Third Prince’s Mansion by himself, and greeted Li Hao: “Where are you going, third brother?”

Li Hao smiled and replied, “Today is a day off, and I have nothing to do. My fourth and fifth brothers and I have made an appointment to go hunting together on horseback.” After a pause, he smiled and asked Li Jing, “Are you going to send my Second sister-in-law back to her parents’ home?”

Li Jing smiled, “No, I’m going to stay with her at Lu Mansion for a few days before coming back.”

Li Hao resisted the urge to look in Lu Mingyu’s direction, and smiled at Li Jing, “My Second brother and Second sister-in-law are so loving, it’s really enviable.”

“In a few days, you will also marry a wife.” Li Jing smiled without changing his expression, “When that time comes, it will be the turn of others to envy you.”

Li Hao smiled faintly, “Thank you, second brother.”

When you met a bosom friend, a thousand cups were not enough, but when you didn’t agree, half a word was too much.

The two brothers exchanged a few false greetings and said goodbye.

Li Hao rode on his horse and went forward. He did not look back at Lu Mingyu.

The hot blood in his chest was mixed with the familiar reluctance and anger, as well as endless obscurity. The spring breeze blowing in his face seemed to become particularly sharp. Strands of it pierced his heart and lungs.

When he rode to the outside of the palace gate, the Fourth Prince Li Xian and the Fifth Prince Li Chang happened to come out.

“Third brother, why do you look so bad?” Li Chang’s small eyes, which were squeezed into two slits by the fat, took a glance and saw that something was wrong with his brother: “Did something happen?”

The Fourth Prince looked at Li Hao, his eyes full of interest in watching the fun: “People are in high spirits when they are happy. The third brother is about to get married and get a wife, so he should be in high spirits. Why do you look so gloomy?”

Li Hao calmed down and smiled: “I went to bed late last night, so my face is not very good. It’s nothing important.”

Li Chang listened to his brother the most, and immediately shut up and stopped asking.

The Fourth Prince did not ask the bottom of the matter, but his eyes revealed a meaningful look.

Li Hao ignored them, smiled, and asked them to get on their horses. Behind each of them were dozens of personal soldiers, dressed in fine clothes and riding horses, unrestrained and unrestrained.

Lu Mansion.

The main gate was wide open, and Lu Lin and his son and daughter-in-law were waiting at the door for Lu Mingyu to come back.

Lu Fei carefully supported Shen Lan.

Shen Lan smiled and said, “I am pregnant, not sick. Why are you supporting me like this? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?”

Yesterday, Shen Lan asked a doctor to take her pulse, and it turned out to be a happy pulse.

Lu Fei returned to the mansion in the evening. Hearing the good news, he was so happy that he almost didn’t sleep all night. He got up early this morning and followed Shen Lan all the time, not to mention how attentive and careful he was.

“Whoever wants to laugh can laugh, I don’t care.” Lu Fei opened his mouth and almost grinned behind his ears: “Fourth sister is back today, and she must be very happy to know that you are pregnant.”

Shen Lan pursed her lips and smiled: “A few days ago when I went to Meng Mansion to add makeup, I told my fourth sister about this. The fourth sister knew it a long time ago.”

Lu Fei: “…”

It was always difficult for gūsǎo to get along. Others were worried about how their wives and sisters get along, but for him, it was just the opposite. Shen Lan and Lu Mingyu were close and could talk about anything, and they had an even better relationship than him and his wife!

Lu Fei was happy, and he pretended to be jealous: “I should be the first to know about such a happy event. Why did you tell the fourth sister first?”

Shen Lan smiled and rolled his eyes at him: “You are in the military camp every day and only come back once every five days. Even if I want to tell you, I have to wait for you to come back.”

Lu Fei has no principles or positions: “Yes, yes, it’s all my fault.”

Shen Lan was amused and laughed softly, and reached out to hit him. Lu Fei held Shen Lan’s hand.

The young couple whispered to each other occasionally, very intimately.

Lu Lin saw it and felt relieved. The daughter-in-law had good news, and the daughter was going to stay at home for a while. It was double happiness.

“Godfather, look, the fourth sister is back!” Lu Xuan was the shortest, tiptoeing to look around, and saw the dashing figure riding a horse in the distance, and immediately shouted excitedly.

Lu Lin was a head taller than Lu Xuan and had better eyesight. He saw Lu Mingyu’s figure earlier than Lu Xuan. He immediately smiled and walked forward quickly.

Lu Mingyu rode over, tightened the reins, and jumped off the horse: “Dad!”

Li Jing was a step slower, and also quickly got off the horse and called his father-in-law.

Lu Lin uttered two loud “eh”, which made everyone laugh.

Shen Lan also wanted to walk forward quickly, but Lu Fei was like an old hen protecting her cubs: “Walk slowly, oh, walk slowly, don’t move the fetus and hurt yourself.”

That look was really unbearable to watch.

Lu Mingyu smiled and shushed his brother: “Second brother, you are exaggerating!”

Li Jing immediately laughed and said: “If you are pregnant, I will not let you go even a step. Wherever you want to go, let someone carry you in a sedan chair.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.

It was indescribable to be together with family.

After entering the main hall, everyone sat down. Lu Mingyu first asked Shen Lan: “Has the second sister-in-law asked the doctor to check her pulse?”

Shen Lan’s cheeks were slightly red, and there was a light of joy in her black eyes: “Well, I asked the doctor to check my pulse and confirmed that it was a pregnant pulse. The doctor said that my pulse is stable and there is no need to take supplements. I just need to be careful when walking, standing, sitting, and lying down.”

Lu Mingyu was also sincerely relieved and happy.

This little life that did not exist in the previous life will be given the surname Lu and will carry on the Lu family’s incense.

Li Jing’s eyes also fell on Lu Mingyu’s flat belly.

Lu Mingyu was a little amused: “What are you looking at me for?”

What else could it be?
Li Jing smiled but said nothing.

Lu Xuan was quick-witted and rushed to say: “Fourth jiěfū must be thinking that Fourth Sister can get some of Second sǎo’s happiness and get pregnant soon.”

Lu Mingyu smiled and glared at Lu Xuan, but a wonderful feeling surged in her heart.

A few days before getting married, she had her period. She had been married to Li Jing for a month, sleeping in the same bed every day, and she didn’t know how many intimate things they had done. Counting the days, her period was also a few days late…
