Chapter 387: Warning
Translator: 549690339
The mother and daughter chatted for a while more before Xiao Baoxin asked to see Madam Cai. Before he could finish, Madam Xie blocked him.
“Although her illness has improved recently, it hasn’t fully recovered yet. I know that your sister-in-law got along well in the past, but there’s no hurry now. You don’t have to be more careful now that you have a body.”
“I don’t even allow Mother Jing and An Du to go near her. I’m afraid that they’ll attract the children.”
Speaking of sisters-in-law, they got along better after the incident with Lu Liu. After Lady Cai followed Xiao Baoshan to Jingling and took office, they interacted with each other. They were far away and near, and they were much more harmonious than before.
Hearing what Madam Xie said, Xiao Baoxin frowned.
“Didn’t you say you’re better? Why can’t I see anyone?”
“It’s not that you can’t see people.”Madam Xie glared at her.” Don’t say that my mother-in-law is unreasonable. Your sister-in-law has personally instructed you to take care of your body now and take good care of it. It won’t be too late to see her again when she’s fully recovered.””
“She’s fine. She’s just scared and caught a cold. She’s getting better, so you don’t have to worry. If she doesn’t get better, how can I not look for the imperial physician to treat her?”
After saying that, he sighed.
“She’s also in a difficult situation. She’s shocked and frightened, and she still misses your brother…The daughters of aristocratic families had never suffered like this.”
He talked about Jingling again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXiao Baoshu was in the limelight and was awe-inspiring. The imperial court would receive battle reports from time to time. At least as a mother, she could still hear sporadic news. It was much more difficult for Xiao Baoshan.
Although he was the prefect who had resigned, he had listened to Xie Xian’s advice and had not gone to his post. He had been staying in Jingling.
However, the prefect who took over his position was replaced too quickly. The power was handed over directly, and there was nothing for him to do, so he stayed in Jingling. It was obvious how awkward it was to stay in Jingling as the governor of Jiang Prefecture.
They were not like Xiao Baoshu who did not care about anything when he went crazy and dared to take the rebel army’s retreat with dozens or hundreds of people…Honest was still in Jingling. There was no news of him from the imperial court, and many of the courier stations between Jingling and Jiankang had been destroyed. It was not convenient to send letters.
Fortunately, the two brothers were in Jing State and could still take care of each other.
When Madam Cai heard that news of Xiao Baoshu had spread all over Jiankang, she could not help but worry about her husband.
The two of them had lived outside for more than half a year and experienced war. Their relationship had never been so close.
Since sister-in-law misses brother, I’ll ask Xuan Hui to ask brother when the Xie family’s men of sacrifice send back news next time…”
“What’s the matter with staying in Jingling without knowing? Can you ask Xuanhui to think of a way to transfer Baoshan back to the capital?”Madam Xie knew Xie Xian’s current status in the court. He was someone who could shake the court with a single stomp.
“Even the Jiang Prefecture Governor has rebelled. Where can he take up his post?”
Now that the imperial court and the rebel army were at war, the former governor of Jiang Prefecture, King Jin ‘an, had proclaimed himself emperor. Xiao Baoshan had been given an edict and was unable to take up his post. The land under his jurisdiction was the rebel army’s headquarters, so he had to be able to enter even if he wanted to.
Xiao Baoxin nodded.” I don’t know much about the matters of the imperial court. I’d better ask Xuan Hui what to do.””
Although she knew her place in Xie Xian’s heart, she still did not agree immediately. After all, no one knew if there were any twists and turns or if the imperial court had other arrangements.
If she didn’t understand, she wouldn’t interfere and make wishes blindly.
“Alright, that’s fine. I’ll talk to your sister-in-law and let her relax…”
Xiao Baoxin’s head hurt. This was the reason why she didn’t say anything to Madam Xie. Her mouth was too fast. “Don’t mention it to sister-in-law if you’re not confident. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.”
“As for Lady Jing and Andu, I brought many small toys for them.”
Xiao Baoxin was tired after sitting for a long time, so he got up to see his nephew and niece.
“You’re an elder. How can you go and see them? I’ll get someone to call them for you.”Madam Xie stopped Xiao Baoxin and said that she wanted them to call him. She stood up and went out without waiting for him to open his mouth. Her happy face was obvious that she had grandchildren.
Xiao Baoxin walked around the courtyard twice.
Madam Cai was sick, so Madam Xie simply brought the children to her own courtyard. It was already past noon, long past the time for the afternoon break. The children were all awake. Madam Xie went to the room and directly brought them over to Mother Jing. Andu had just turned one year old and was still walking unsteadily, so Nanny carried him over.
The two children looked like they were carved out of jade. They had long since lost the ashen face they had when they first returned to the Xiao Manor. One look at Madam Xie and it was obvious that she had taken good care of them.
She fed them until they were chubby and pink. Even the usually slender Mother Jing had some flesh on her face.
Xiao Baoxin came out at this moment. An Du had become fatter after eating and looked like a tiger. He did not look like this when he was young, but now he looked 70 – 80% like Xiao Baoshu when he was young.
Was this the reason why Madam Xie was holding her heart so tightly?
Xiao Baoxin had visually estimated the figures of the two children last time. This time, he had brought back four or five sets of autumn clothes. They would be able to put them on in a few days. Then there were the toys that children liked and the two beaded flowers for Lady Jing.
Jingniang was five years old and had a slender and elegant appearance. She had thin eyebrows and long eyes. She looked a little like Cai Shi, but she was even more exquisite than Cai Shi. Her little mouth was also used to being able to talk. When she saw Xiao Baoxin, she was like an aunt before an aunt, and she was so sticky.
Children were young, but they were more sensitive to anyone who treated them well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMoreover, Madam Cai had been nagging her to get closer to Xiao Baoxin.
In her eyes, her aunt was the best, the most beautiful, and the kindest.
Mother said that she was sick and it was inconvenient for her to see aunt.
She was afraid that she would pass out and give aunt. Ah Niang told me to tell auntie when I see auntie. Thank auntie for your concern. Ah Niang is fine.”Her voice was gentle and soft, and she spoke clearly and logically.
Xiao Baoxin laughed. The little girl was a little mischievous.
In the past, she had liked Lady Jing. She was different from the noisy her. Lady Jing had been obedient since she was young. However, she did not get along with the Cai family in the past and rarely interacted with them.
She was pregnant and could not carry the child, so she pulled Jing Niang’s small hand and touched An Du’s face.
Perhaps it was because after she got pregnant, she thought that every family’s child was so cute, not to mention that this was really her own.
They stayed for the entire afternoon. Before they left, the sky was almost dark, but Mother Jing still reluctantly held Xiao Baoxin’s hand and asked when she would come again.
“When your mother’s body is better, I will come over.”
“My mother will be fine tomorrow. Aunt, come back tomorrow.””He sold his mother out quickly.
Madam Xie stopped receiving them.” You should leave quickly. If you don’t come home at this hour, your in-laws will miss you. You don’t have to keep coming here and make people say bad things. Everything at home is fine.””
After sending Xiao Baoxin to the car, he did not forget to remind Youmei,
“Take out your ability to protect your master loyally last time. If anyone dares to come up and provoke your big lady, directly cut off their arms. I, your wife, will take care of everything-and Xie Xian!”
“The world is in chaos now. You must be vigilant.”
Youmei had wanted to laugh back then. Was there anyone so blind now? In the end, Xiao Baoxin’s hand and Madam Xie’s mouth were both so accurate..
