Jiang Qingyue corrected her again: "Call me aunt."

He didn't want Zongzi to know that Shen Shuning was his aunt.It's not her aunt at all, this is her child alone.

Shen Shuning looked at Zongzi's little face and murmured: "The longer he grows, the more he looks like him. Can I hide it?"

"He can't see it," Jiang Qingyue said, "This is the only child of my Jiang family. My father loves him so much that no one can take him away."

She wanted to drink the bowl of Bizi soup from the beginning.

But as luck would have it, my father came over that day.

Jiang Liu insisted on asking her what was going on.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't resist and told the truth.

If you don't drink this medicine, you may become pregnant with Shen Xiao's child.

Jiang Liu did not blame her for not loving herself, but instead said to her after silence: "If you have a child, just stay. Daddy is used to being lonely and wants a grandson."

At that time, Jiang Qingyue was a little surprised.

In the past, her father always thought of her, so how could he advise her to make such a decision?

Jiang Liu didn't explain much, just asked her: "Do you find it difficult to raise a child alone?"

Jiang Qingyue shook her head: "What hardships have I never suffered? It's just raising a child."

Jiang Liu smiled and said, "Then... give him a chance."

At that time, Jiang Qingyue didn't think deeply about whether the "he" his father mentioned was the child or Shen Xiao.

Just like that, she didn't drink the bowl of soup.

She thought to herself, let nature take its course, she might not be so unlucky to get pregnant.

As a result, I actually found out that I had a baby two months later.

Just think of it as fate and destiny.

But she was not at ease staying in Jinling City. The longer her child grew, the more she looked like him, which was not safe.

On the day she left Jinling, Jiang Liu suddenly asked her: "Are you really not going to tell him?"

Jiang Qingyue said in surprise: "Why tell? And then let him snatch the child away? Then dad, you will have no grandchildren. This is our child and has nothing to do with him."

Just after leaving Jinling City, Jiang Liu asked again: "If he had difficulties at the beginning and became emperor because of helplessness, would you be willing to give him a chance?"

"Dad, you are so stupid. How long have you been talking like this?" Jiang Qingyue said speechlessly, "No matter how helpless he is, he can't become emperor just for me, right?"

Jiang Liu opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Jiang Qingyue added: "We have gone through so many things, and we can finally leave Jinling City without any worries. Are we going to go into that whirlpool that eats people without spitting out bones? The emperor's side is not so easy to stay. "

Jiang Liu looked at his daughter, then at the baby sleeping soundly in his arms, and finally nodded.
-
Shen Shuning gave Zongzi a rattle to play with and said, "Shen Xiao will not have a legitimate son until he is established. Zongzi is the eldest son of the emperor and can legitimately inherit the throne. You really..."

Jiang Qingyue shook her head: "What's the benefit of being an emperor? My father and I just want him to live an ordinary and peaceful life. If my mother were alive, she would definitely support me."

Shen Shuning couldn't persuade her, so he reminded her: "You can't hide it from him for too long. Sooner or later, he will find out the clues. Two years is a long time."

Shen Xiao knew that Jiang Qingyue had given birth to a child.

But he always thought it belonged to King Xuan and never seemed to doubt it.

Jiang Qingyue thought for a while, "I'll move again."

Shen Shuning sighed, "No, no, he doesn't know where you are now. Ever since you gave birth to Zongzi a year ago, he has stopped asking anyone to inquire about your whereabouts."

"That's good."

While Jiang Qingyue was talking, he poured her a cup of tea, "I don't have anything you like to drink, so just make do with it."

Shen Shuning took it with one hand and pinched her waist with the other hand: "My waist is still so thin after giving birth, I want to be fascinated by you."

Jiang Qingyue knew that she came here to tell him another thing.

She might not visit them for years.

"I heard that you and Liu Wenye are going to Japan, Shu Ning, you must come back safely."
-
A year later, Jiang Qingyue met Qin Gu in Yangzhou.

It seemed like a chance encounter, but it didn't seem like it was.

Jiang Qingyue invited him to have a meal at the restaurant, and Qin Gu wanted to hear what she said about what happened over the years.

"Everyone knows it, how could you not know it?" Jiang Qingyue poured him wine, "What about you, how are you?"

Qin Gu was very happy, "My parents are tired of playing outside. When they come home, I have free time to play around."

"When did this happen?"

"Just a few days ago." Jiang Qingyue said unexpectedly: "You also like Yangzhou?"

Otherwise, it would not be easy to get freedom, and the first place would be Yangzhou.

Qin Gu asked her back: "When you left Jinling, you didn't want to come to Gusu to find me?"

Jiang Qingyue felt embarrassed and punished herself with two drinks.

When she left Gusu, she said that if she could get what she wanted and leave Jinling City again, she would happily have a drink with him.

"The drunken shrimp in this restaurant is delicious," Jiang Qingyue pointed to one of the dishes and said to him, "You must try this when you come to Yangzhou."

Qin Gu said to her with bright eyes: "There are countless sights and delicacies in the world. Are you interested in going to see them together?"

Jiang Qingyue looked directly into his eyes.

"I'm interested, but I'm afraid you might find it troublesome."

"Details."

"I take my baby with me wherever I go, and my dad," Jiang Qingyue said. "When my baby gets very noisy, my dad dotes on him, which often makes me annoyed."

On the contrary, Qin Gu thought it was good: "I like children. If I had children of my own, I would take them with me. Children should travel all over the world to see them."

Jiang Qingyue still didn't agree immediately.

"It's too sudden. Let me think about it."

She understood Qin Gu's thoughts. In fact, he had already expressed many things during his three years in Gusu.

It’s not that she hadn’t planned to find a father for Zongzi. Seeing that other people had a father and a mother, Zongzi asked her where her father was.

Zongzi's grandfather is getting older, and Jiang Qingyue doesn't want him to do many menial tasks, but things like chopping wood and carrying water from the well are always better done by a man.

Qin Gu is a nice person.

But his marriage was not something he could do as he wished. He was the only legitimate son, and the Qin family's family business would eventually fall on his shoulders. By then, he would have no freedom like Shen Xiao.

Qin Gu said: "There's no rush. I'm just not used to living in inns. Can I stay at your house for a few days?"
-
Qin Gu spent the first day under Jiang Liu's watchful eye.

The next day, Jiang Liu said to Jiang Qingyue, "He was originally the head of the Qin family in Gusu."

Jiang Qingyue was not surprised that he found this out so quickly.

"I know."

"You and he have been together in Gusu for three years. This year, Qin Gu forced his parents to come back from outside, returned the Qin family's stall to their parents, and asked his parents to pass the family business to his sister."

Jiang Qingyue was not too surprised: "His parents are very playful, and so is he."

Qin Gu always felt that his parents had been playing outside for too long and it was time to go home to calm down and let him go out instead.

Jiang Liu shook his head: "Since he became the head of the Qin family at the age of 17, he has almost never made any mistakes. He acts vigorously and resolutely, and everyone in the Qin family is convinced. He should not be just a playful person."

Jiang Qingyue also understands this.

Qin Gu looks cynical on the surface, but he is also an extremely cautious and resourceful person on the inside.

This is not inconsistent with his playfulness.

"What does this have to do with me?" Jiang Qingyue asked.

Jiang Liuqing coughed: "Daughter, why are you pretending to be stupid with dad? Just tell me what you think of him. If you really don't like dad, kick him out."

Jiang Qingyue said quickly: "Don't act recklessly. He is my friend after all. Can I kick him out after staying overnight for a few days?"

Jiang Liu laughed twice, with a joyful smile on his face.

"Okay, okay, dad knows. Then why don't you tell dad how you came to Gusu in those three years?"

Jiang Qingyue heard Zongzi talking to Qin Gu outside the house. Qin Gu took Zongzi out to play and was back now.

She signaled her father to stop talking: "I will tell you later."
-
In order to prove that he could take care of a baby, Qin Gu stayed at her house and took care of her baby for free for a month.

A month later, Qin Gu was leaving, and Zongzi hugged his legs and cried with tears and runny noses.

"I don't want Uncle Qin to leave! I don't want it!"

His whole body was hanging on Qin Gu's lap. He was very strong at such a young age. Jiang Qingyue couldn't break it off, and she didn't dare to toss the child too hard.

Qin Gu touched Zongzi's head and discussed with Jiang Qingyue: "I plan to go to Chizhou, shall we go together?"
