When Liu Song's figure disappeared into the garden, Young Master Liu cleared his throat and turned to look at Qi Yun and the others not far away.
"Chengzhi, come here."
"Hey, here we come."
Liu Chengzhi responded and trotted to his father's side with a puzzled look on his face.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"This girl Jingyao is getting closer to giving birth day by day. How is her body doing now?"
"To tell you what, Jingyao is pregnant after all, so her physical convenience is definitely different from that of a normal person.
Especially in terms of energy and spirit, it is somewhat inferior to before.
However, fortunately, I took the anti-fetal medicine regularly prescribed by the imperial doctor, and there was almost no serious problem."
Hearing his son's answer, he immediately felt relieved and nodded with a chuckle.
"As long as there is nothing serious, I will feel relieved as a father.
As for the problem of poor energy and spirit, this is inevitable.
When your mother and your aunts were pregnant with your brothers and sisters, their bodies had more or less symptoms of this.
You don’t have to worry too much about anything, just wait and see with peace of mind until you become a father.”
"Hey, I understand, kid.
My mother and aunts had just returned home, when the child came back with Jingyao to say hello to them.
When Ha'er and Jingyao asked their mother for advice, they also told Ha'er the same thing.
Therefore, although the child feels a little sorry for the lady, he is not too worried about anything."
Young Master Liu closed the jade fan and began to beat it gently in his hand.
"Well, that's right.
Your mother and aunts, after all, they have been here before.
If you don’t understand something, you must ask them for advice.
What this girl Jingyao is carrying in her belly is her father's grandson or granddaughter. What if Jingyao's body suffers from some problem because of your negligence?
I will just peel off your skin."
When Liu Chengzhi heard his father's 'threat', the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he nodded hurriedly and laughed in apology.
"Dad, don't worry.
Even if you don't say this, my dear, I will definitely not ignore the things about Jingyao.
She is my married wife, and I wish I could be by her side every day to care about her and take care of her, so how could I neglect anything?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and walked towards Qi Yun and the others.
"Well, with your words, I won't have to say anything more as a father."
Young Master Liu had just taken two or three steps when he suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something.
When Liu Chengzhi saw his father's reaction, a nervous look flashed across his face. He didn't know what happened to his father.
"Dad, are you okay?"
Young Master Liu smacked his lips a few times and looked curiously at Erzi, who looked slightly nervous.
"Chengzhi."
"Hey, Dad, tell me."
"After my father came back, he finished all the official matters that needed to be said.
I am about to go to your Aunt Chen Jie, Aunt He Shu and their sisters.
But suddenly I thought of another personal matter about you."
"Ah? About, about the child's personal matters?
What, what’s a private matter?”
Young Master Liu saw Erzi's confused look, pinned the folding fan to his waist, and casually took off the wine bag from his waist.
After uncorking the wine and taking a sip of the wine, Young Master Liu looked at Erzi with a half-smile but not a smile.
Liu Chengzhi felt his father's strange eyes and suddenly became uncomfortable. He subconsciously lowered his head and observed his body a few times.
After a while, Liu Chengzhi looked nervous and looked at his father with confused eyes.
I looked over my body carefully, and there was nothing wrong with it.
"Dad, is there anything wrong with the child?"
"No, it's quite normal. There's almost no big difference from before."
"If that's the case, then why are you staring at the child like that?
Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it, I feel a little uncomfortable with you staring at the child like this."
Young Master Liu raised his head and took a sip of wine. He put his hands behind his back and sighed with a slightly raised brow.
"Chengzhi."
"Dad, tell me."
"Father, I remember that before I left the capital to visit your grandmother in Shu, you seemed to have mentioned to me about Jingyao girl and my plan to have a concubine for you.
If my father remembers it correctly, this should have happened, right?"
When Liu Chengzhi heard his father's question, he laughed a few times with an embarrassed expression, then nodded with a chuckle.
"Hehehe, tell me back to dad, this is indeed the case."
Seeing his son's embarrassed reaction, Mr. Liu narrowed his eyes slightly and recalled.
After a long time, Young Master Liu seemed to have thought of something, and took another sip of wine with a slight smile on his lips.
"My father vaguely remembers that the girl Jingyao chose is the eldest granddaughter of Cai Yuanchao, a former doctor in the Ministry of Justice.
His name is Cai Ningning.
right."
"Reply dad, you remembered correctly."
"Well, as long as the father remembers the identity of his future daughter-in-law correctly.
By the way, what's going on with this girl Cai Ningning now?
Is she living in the capital now, or has she returned to her father's place?"
"Dad, ever since Jingyao finalized the matter with Ningning in private.
Ning Ning has been living in the capital and has never left."
Young Master Liu raised his eyebrows and sneered a few times with a playful look on his face.
"Hey, Ning Ning, Ning Ning's name is so kind.
It seems that the two of you have a lot of contact in private on weekdays!"
Hearing his father's teasing words, Liu Chengzhi's face froze, and he laughed awkwardly.
"Dad, I...I..."
Young Master Liu took a sip of wine and shook his head angrily.
"Okay, a dignified seven-foot man, there is nothing to be shy about.
As the saying goes, men should marry when they are young, and women should marry when they are young.
What's more, you already have a family and a career, and now you just have a concubine.
Such a gesture is really embarrassing."
Liu Chengzhi heard his father's words of instruction and nodded hurriedly in agreement.
"Yes, yes, that's what dad taught me."
"Since you have been in contact with each other in private, it means that you know almost everything about this girl Cai Mingming.
Tell your father, how is this girl's moral character?"
"Gentle and generous, virtuous and virtuous. Compared with Jingyao, both have their own merits."
Liu Mingzhi squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, then nodded with a slight smile.
"Okay, since you've already fallen in love with it, I won't say anything as a father.
Take some time and take Cai Ningning out for a walk. Your father and your mother will observe you secretly.
Now Jingyao is satisfied, as long as your mother is satisfied, she will be satisfied too.
This daughter-in-law is recognized by her father."
Liu Chengzhi looked happy and scratched his neck with a silly smile.
"Hey, the kid knows.
When I have time, I will arrange this as soon as possible.
Thank you dad."
"You bastard, what can I do to you?"
"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong."
"By the way, have you told your mother and aunts about this?"
"As soon as Dad, Mom and all the aunts came back, they didn't care about other things because of Aunt Hoshino's affairs.
In addition, the boy himself is also constantly dealing with the government affairs of the DPRK and China.
Because I haven't had time to tell them about Ning Ning yet."
Young Master Liu turned his head and glanced at Qi Yun and the other sisters who were not far away, and nodded with a clear expression.
"Well, my father knows.
Regarding the matter between you and Ning Ning, my father will tell your mother, aunts and sisters as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you dad."
"As a father, it's still what I said just now. Now Jingyao is satisfied, even your mother is satisfied too.
As long as your mother has no objections, she will deal with your marriage to Ning Ning as soon as possible after her father has finished handling all the trivial matters at hand.
By then, as long as there are auspicious days this year, your marriage will be arranged.
If it can be done this year, then let’s do it this year.”
"Thank you dad, thank you dad."
Young Master Liu saw the excited look on Erzi's face, and his playful eyes gradually calmed down.
"Don't worry. Thank you. I have to warn you in advance."
"Dad, tell me."
"In the future, after Ningning and you two get married, you should not treat Jingyao and her sisters favorably.
If my father hears what kind of injustice this girl Jingyao has suffered.
I can’t kill you, but I have to make you shed your skin.”
"Dad, don't worry.
My child, I can guarantee that I will never favor one person over another in the future."
"It doesn't matter if I believe you or not, only Jingyao believes in you.
Regarding your matters, it is not convenient for me to interfere too much.
Just watch and deal with it among yourselves."
"Yes, yes, my child knows."
Young Master Liu put the wine bag on his waist and walked towards Qi Yun and the other sisters.
Seeing the third son Liu Chengqian standing next to the third princess, chatting and laughing with his sister Liu Yaoyao, Young Master Liu suddenly sighed with emotion.
"Oh, Chengzhi."
"father?"
"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the eldest brother has already married and started a business, and even has a son in his arms.
As for the second child, you are not only married and starting a business, but you are also about to have a child.
After a while, you will even have a concubine.
You two brothers have all done what you need to do.
However, your third brother's life-long event has not been settled yet.
He is no longer young, but he is still a bachelor now.
Not to mention starting a family and starting a business, he hasn't even finalized an engagement yet.
Putting it off like this is not an option after all.
Regarding the life-long event of the third child, not only is he anxious for his father, but your aunt Yan'er is also anxious.
As a father, I also know that the relationship between you brothers, sisters and others is very good in private.
Therefore, as a father, I want to ask you.
Regarding your third brother’s life-long events, do you, the second brother, have any good suggestions?”
"Dad, I wonder what kind of advice you want to hear?"
"Does that need to be said? Of course it's a suggestion about the most important thing in Lao San's life.
For example, does this guy Lao San have any favorite girls in private?
Another example is which girl from which family is she closer to?
Anyway, as long as it’s a suggestion related to Lao San’s lifelong events, you can say whatever you want.”
Liu Chengzhi couldn't help but look weird when he saw the depressed expression on his father's face.
"Dad, I have something to tell you."
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"Actually, you don't have to worry about getting angry at all regarding Third Brother's life-long matters."
"What's the meaning?"
"Uh... uh... I don't know what to tell you at the moment.
I can only tell you that as for the life-long issue, Third Brother...he has almost solved it a long time ago.
It’s even earlier than my eldest brother and my child…it’s been so many years.”
Young Master Liu suddenly stopped in his steps and looked hurriedly towards his second son, Liu Chengzhi.
"Chengzhi, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Chengzhi looked at the surprised and curious expression on his father's face, and scratched his forehead with a strange expression.
"Oh, things are a bit complicated. I don't know how to tell you at the moment."
"Why are you so hesitant? Just say whatever you want."
Liu Chengzhi raised his eyes and glanced at his third brother, smiling and smacking his lips a few times.
"Dad, it would be better for my third brother to tell you personally about this matter.
After all, he is the person involved, and he must know things more clearly than me, my child."
Young Master Liu saw the frustrated expression of the second son who wanted to laugh but dared not, and subconsciously looked at the third son Liu Chengqian in front of him.
Seeing Liu Chengqian happily chatting and laughing with his sister Liu Yaoyao, a look of doubt flashed in Young Master Liu's eyes.
No matter how you look at it, the third child doesn't look like anything is wrong.
"Second child."
"Why."
"Whatever you know, just say it, don't fucking try to hide it for me."
"Dad, it's not that the kid doesn't want to tell you, but there are some things that the kid himself doesn't know much about.
Third brother knows best, it is more appropriate for you to ask him directly than to ask the child."
When Liu Dashan saw Er Zi looking like this, he frowned slightly and pondered for a long time, but didn't ask any more questions.
"Does your Aunt Yaner know what you said?"
When Liu Chengzhi heard his father's question, he nodded in response without hesitation.
"Not only Aunt Yan knows about this, but my mother and all the aunts also know what the child said.
As for the mother and others who know a little more about the situation than the child, then the child cannot guarantee it."
"Hahaha, since you all know about this, just keep it secret from me."
"No, no, absolutely not.
My mother and aunts have absolutely no intention of hiding this from you, dad, just because you have just returned home.
Time is too hasty, mother and others haven't had time to report anything to you yet."
Young Master Liu glanced at the second son with a strange expression, and strode towards Qi Yun and the other sisters.
"Yan'er."
The third princess, Li Yan, was discussing something softly with Qi Ya. When she heard Young Master Liu's greeting, she hurriedly gave her a blessing.
"Hey, I'm here."
Young Master Liu glanced at the third son, Liu Chengqian, with a faint look, then stretched out with his arms raised.
"Yaoyao, Chengqian."
"The child is here."
"We've finished talking about the business. You two, brother and sister, should go back and rest first."
"Yes, my child obeys."
"Chengzhi."
"The child is here."
"Get out of here too, I don't want to see you even if I take a breath."
