"Look, your attitude has softened in the past two days, how happy my mother is."

Daohua sat on the armchair and soaked her feet.

Because in the third trimester of pregnancy, her legs were swollen, and now she had to soak her feet in hot water every night.

Xiao Yeyang is sitting on the stool, his hands are soaked in hot water, and he is helping Daohua massage his feet and legs.

Daohua continued: "Uncle Chu is actually a very good person. Although he is a bit informal, he is very considerate of his mother. With him taking care of her, we can feel more at ease."

Xiao Yeyang lowered his head and said nothing.

Daohua glanced at him: "Don't be jealous of Uncle Chu."

Xiao Yeyang raised his head and glared: "Who is jealous of him? Don't talk nonsense."

Daohua curled her lips: "As soon as you and Uncle Chu met each other, you started to get at each other's throats. You looked like you couldn't stand each other. You can smell the vinegar smell coming from you even from a distance."

Xiao Yeyang was told something that was on his mind, so he couldn't help but scratch Daohua's chubby feet. Daohua was ticklish and immediately laughed.

"Let you talk nonsense, I am a grown man and I don't like to be jealous."

Daohua laughed for a while before stopping, and then angrily stretched out her legs, pretending to kick Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Yeyang grabbed Daohua's ankle with quick eyes and hands, then calmly took the dry handkerchief from Guyu's hand and helped Daohua dry her feet.

Immediately, he picked up Daohua and put her on the bed.

After Daohua lay down on the pillow, Xiao Yeyang put Daohua's legs on his own and started to squeeze them gently.

"Your legs are swollen like this. When I'm not at home, you must remember to ask Guyu and the others to massage you every night."

Daohua nodded: "I know."

Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "I have to go to Jin Weiwei early tomorrow morning."

Daohua felt reluctant to give up, but she didn't show it on her face: "Go, I have master and mother to take care of me, you don't have to worry."

During this time, there has been some excitement in Xiliao, and it is not easy for Xiao Yeyang to find time to come back and stay for two days.

Xiao Yeyang touched Daohua's belly: "I will definitely come back when the child is born."

Daohua smiled and said: "Master and the four nuns have all seen it and said that the delivery date will be around mid-May."

Xiao Yeyang: "I've written it down." As he said that, he rested his head on his stomach

At this moment, the little guy in his belly moved, Daohua said "Ouch", but Xiao Yeyang grinned.

"The child is greeting me. He must know that I am going out and is reluctant to leave me."

Daohua glanced at the silly Xiao Yeyang and was too lazy to refute him.

Early the next morning, when Daohua was still sleeping, Xiao Yeyang went to greet Gu Jian, then went to see Guo Ruomei and Chu Lang, and left on horseback.

Looking at Xiao Yeyang's retreating back, Chu Lang said: "It's not easy for this guy. He is about to give birth to a child, and he has to go out to inspect and train troops."

Guo Ruomei immediately looked over: "Then you are still looking for trouble with Yang'er?"

Chu Lang was extremely aggrieved: "I'm making trouble for him? Every time he looks at my nose, not my nose, not my eyes, okay."

Guo Ruomei was silent for a moment. Her son had a bit of a temper, but she said: "You are an elder, so you should be more considerate. Besides, you didn't ask for it if he turned his back on you."

Hearing this, Chu Lang was speechless: "Yes, yes, I took away his mother. He should not be happy. Next time he comes back, I will take care of him more."

Guo Ruomei didn't say anything and turned back to her house to see the rice flowers.

......

Although Daohua and Guo Ruomei had met several times, the time each time was very short. They were both a little uncomfortable with suddenly living under the same roof.

When Daohua faced Guo Ruomei, she respected and was polite to her mother-in-law;

As for Guo Ruomei, she doesn't want to leave a troublesome impression on her daughter-in-law. Even if there are some personnel matters in the house that she doesn't like, she won't express her opinion, which makes her feel a little distant and cold.

As a result, the way the two get along is too polite and not close enough.

Gu Jian and Chu Lang on the side looked a little tired.

However, Daohua and Guo Ruomei didn't think anything of it. Getting along with other people requires getting used to, so there's nothing wrong with being polite and distant at first.

Guo Ruomei has been pregnant and given birth, and knows the psychology of women who are about to give birth, so she mostly tries to comfort Daohua when chatting.

This made Daohua feel much more relaxed and less nervous about production.

On April 15th, Guo Ruomei was telling Daohua about interesting things about Xiao Yeyang's childhood when she saw Chu Lang walking in with a serious look on his face.

Guo Ruomei immediately noticed something was wrong with him. Since Daohua was there, she didn't have the time to ask. After Daohua returned to her yard, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Chu Lang: "Yesterday, Xiliao's 250,000 troops appeared on the border of Xintunwei."

Guo Ruomei's face was shocked, but she didn't panic: "Why did Xiliao come so fast?"

Chu Lang shook his head: "Based on the current situation, Xiliao is preparing for a war with Daxia."

Guo Ruomei frowned, looking a little worried: "Can Yang'er hold up?"

Chu Lang: "The border troops stationed in Xiliang are already gathering at Xintunwei. They should be fine." He said, looking at Guo Ruomei, "Do you want to tell Yan Yatou about this?"

Guo Ruomei was silent for a moment: "The Western Liao army is approaching the border. This matter cannot be hidden. Since she learned about it from others, it is better for me to tell her, so as not to scare her."

Seeing Guo Ruomei's frown, Chu Lang thought for a while and said, "Do you want me to go to Xintunwei? I'm here, and I guarantee that nothing will happen to that kid."

Guo Ruomei shook her head: "No, you don't want to go. We will all stay in Ganzhou City and protect Yiyi so that Yanger will not have any worries."

Hearing this, Chu Lang didn’t want to say more.

Guo Ruomei made a plan in her mind, and after thinking about how to talk to Daohua, she walked to the main courtyard.

......

When she heard that the Xiliao army was approaching, Daohua's heart tightened. However, she had been prepared for a long time, and her mood was relatively stable. She held her belly and did not panic too much.

Guo Ruomei saw that Daohua was able to bear it well, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Leave the war to Yang'er. You just have to protect yourself now. If you get flustered, the child in your belly will also be frightened."

A smile appeared on Daohua's face: "Don't worry, mother, I'll be fine."

Guo Ruomei sighed in her heart. As a family member of a soldier, it is inevitable to be worried.

Daohua didn't have time to worry. She quickly calculated the amount of food. Fortunately, Qin Xiaoliu had already shipped two batches of food, so the military rations should be sufficient.

On the other side, Gu Jian also received the news and rushed to Daohua Yard. He was relieved when he saw that Daohua was still calm.

"Yeyang still has some skills. There are only 250,000 people from Xiliao, so it won't be a problem. Don't think too much."
