The wife of the power minister's family

Xu Jing was slightly stunned and at a loss for a moment.

Shen Niang on the side rushed forward, hugged Xiao Huaian, and patted the snowflakes on his butt distressedly, "Oh, young man, there is still snow on the ground, be careful to catch a cold. Don't you look forward to Madam every day? Are you back with your husband? Now that my wife is back, why are you still crying..."

Xiao Huaian shook his head desperately, crying so much that he hiccupped, "No! That, that's not grandma...hiccups!"

Xianyun turned to Xu Jing, who looked unresponsive, and sighed: "Ms. Cheng often comes to see Xiao Langjun these days. Seeing that Xiao Langjun is in a bad mood, she tells him that as long as he is patient and counts to the forty-fifth day, , the madam and the husband will be back. After listening to Mrs. Cheng’s words, the young man has to count the date of the wife and the husband’s departure from beginning to end every day like he did just now. Today, he should count to the forty-fourth Oh my god..."

Xu Jing understood instantly, and couldn't help but feel distressed and pity.

Since the Zhou family lent them the doctor, Xu Jing left Cheng Qingqing in Xijing to help her lead the group of young apprentices, and asked Cheng Xianbai to return to Anping County to manage Xinglin Hall, while continuing to recruit and train doctors.

Counting from the day she left to the day of Little One's birthday, it was exactly forty-five days.

Although Cheng Qingqing didn't know when she and Xiao Yi would come back, she obviously believed that she wouldn't miss Xiaodian's birthday. She would be back on Xiaodian's birthday at the latest, so she said these words to comfort Xiaodian. .

But he didn't expect that Changxiao would believe her words so much, even to the point of becoming possessed.

It's not that Xu Jing couldn't understand the mood of Changxiao. When something that she has been thinking about suddenly appears in front of her eyes, even adults often have an unreal feeling as if they were in a dream, let alone a person who is less than five years old and doesn't understand. How do little dolls deal with their emotions.

She walked over and glanced at Shen Niang. Shen Niang hesitated for a moment and then handed the child in her arms to her. Xu Jing hugged her with difficulty and sat on the swing beside her, patting the child until it cried. He twitched his back and chuckled: "The Changxiao seems to be a little heavier again, but when my father and mother were not around, did you eat delicious food without telling my father and mother?"

After a certain little baby fell into her arms, it seemed that its whole body froze, and its crying became much quieter in an instant.

Hearing Xu Jing's words, he bit his lip, suddenly his face bulged, and he lowered his head and said nothing.

The long eyelashes were still stained with wet tears, and a pair of dark eyes revealed unspeakable grievance and sadness.

Xu Jing immediately realized that this little guy had noticed that she was really back. Now that the initial period of emotional confusion and disbelief had passed, all the resentment and grievances buried in her heart came to the surface.

This is deliberately ignoring her and getting into trouble with her.

Xu Jing looked at him with a smile, caressing his back and said, "Why are you ignoring grandma Chang Xiao?"

The little guy's cheeks suddenly became more bulging, and his little mouth pouted even more.

Xu Jing said slowly, "If Changxiao continues to ignore grandma, grandma will have no choice but to..."

The little guy straightened his back suddenly, turned his head and looked at Xu Jing aggrievedly, his little hands already tightly grasping Xu Jing's sleeves.

As if he was afraid that she would suddenly disappear again.

Xu Jing couldn't help but smile and said, "The candied haws brought back by my mother from outside can only be eaten by others."

Candied haws!

The little guy's eyes, still filled with tears, suddenly lit up, and the grievance and sadness in his eyes were instantly replaced by full of longing and expectation.

Chunyang, who was following Xu Jing, saw this and immediately understood why Madam asked her to take all the candied haws they bought on the road with her before she got off the carriage. He quickly untied a baggage he had been holding and took it out. He handed over a food box and said: "Little husband, my wife and husband kept thinking about me when they were outside. Madam and husband know that my husband likes to eat candied haws. Everywhere they go along the way, They all buy a bunch of candied haws peas locally, saying that they want to give the young man a taste of the candied haws peas from different places.

The food box was almost full with the candied haws that the madam and the husband bought for the young man. "

Fortunately, it's winter now, so the candied haws won't melt even after being stored for a long time. Seeing the little guy's shining eyes, which seemed to be glued to the food box, Xu Jing chuckled lightly and asked Chunyang to open the food box. She took the food box with her free hand and handed it to Xiao Huaian. Said: "Your father said that he was afraid that you would damage your teeth before, so he didn't dare to let you eat more candied haws every time. Today, I will let my mother-in-law make the decision. How about letting you eat two candied haws?"

Xiao Huaian immediately raised his head and looked at Xu Jing in disbelief. His two small hands were already tightly holding Xu Jing's clothes, and he said eagerly: "Auntie, Auntie, I, I can really eat two sticks." Candied haws?"

In the past, Xianyun and the others only gave him one candied haws every time.

Moreover, it took a long time to give him one!

Xu Jing put her index finger on her lips pretending to be mysterious and said, "Of course it's true, but I can't tell your father about this. This is a secret between Changxiao and I, okay?"

It's really not good for children to eat too much sugar, but once or twice, it's still fine.

But he cannot be allowed to form the idea that he can eat sweets at will. At this time, it would be best to use Xiao Yi, an old father, as a shield.

It can also enhance the bond between mother and son, killing two birds with one stone.

The little guy suddenly became happy. It was as if the grievance and sadness he felt just now had never existed before. He carefully picked out a hawthorn-flavored candied haws in the food box, glanced at Xu Jing, and happily picked an apple-flavored one.

Then he nestled in Xu Jing's arms and ate with satisfaction.

Xu Jing watched in amusement as his cheeks bulged and his eyes narrowed into a long smile. Occasionally, she used a handkerchief to wipe the sugar residue around his mouth.

It was only this time that she realized that ancient candied haws had so many flavors.

Seeing that Xiao Langjun was finally coaxed and showed his usual smile, Xianyun and Mrs. Shen almost cried with joy.

Shen Niang smiled and shook her head and said, "Madam still has a way. The old slave and the servants in the house have tried all kinds of tricks these days, but they can't make the young man smile like this."

Xu Jing looked at them with a smile, "Thank you for taking care of Changxiao. However, Lang Jun and I came back late, so I'm afraid we won't have time to celebrate Changxiao's birthday. I thought I would invite my close relatives and friends tomorrow. Just come and have a meal.”

Shen Niang smiled and said: "No matter what, as long as the madam and the husband are here, the husband will be very happy."

Although Shen Niang said so, Xu Jing still felt very sorry that they had left the little one alone for so many days.

She was already thinking about getting Qiushui to see if she could make a birthday cake tomorrow.

In Xu Jing's opinion, that is the most essential thing for a child's birthday party.

Throughout the night, because of the guilt and pity in her heart, Xu Jing responded to Xiao Huaian's every request. Even Xiao Huaian carefully pulled her sleeve and said he wanted to sleep with her, and she agreed immediately.

A certain little kid suddenly smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes. He really explained what it means to have a mother and everything is possible.

Although the bed in Xiao Huaian's room was not small, it was still a bit cramped for Xu Jing and him to sleep at the same time, so Xu Jing took him back to her and Xiao Yi's room.

At night, the mother and son squeezed into the same bed for the first time in a long time. The little guy was so happy that he rolled around on the bed. Xu Jing was lying on her side, holding her head with one hand, watching him with a smile as he acted like a little puppy.

After rolling enough, the little guy rolled into his grandma's arms, raised his red little face and said, "Mom, do you want daddy to sleep here tonight?"
