Chapter 58: The Second Brother is Coming Back~ (Please Read)

The sun has been shining warmly on the earth these days, and the breeze has been blowing, bringing a hint of coolness.

Gu Jiangmeng lay in Ye Shu's arms, lazily basking in the sun.

[Huh - several crises have been resolved. I haven't felt so comfortable in a long time~ This sun is so comfortable~]

Ye Shu slowly rocked the swaddling clothes in her arms, thinking to herself, Jiang Meng, if it weren't for you, I don't know what would have become of our family. I can't even imagine what the outcome would have been.

"lady."

At this time, Qiu Sang came over.

"What's wrong?"

"The Double Ninth Festival is coming in two days. I'm thinking of the kites and Double Ninth cakes I prepared in advance."

"Just do whatever you want. I'll leave it to you, and I'll be at ease."

"Yes, ma'am."

[The Double Ninth Festival is coming soon? Wow, time goes by so fast~]

Ye Shu: Yes, Jiang Meng, you were so young back then, but you have grown so big now.

[Yes, Double Ninth Festival! Suddenly I remembered that my second brother is coming back soon! ]

When Ye Shu heard this, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

What, Chang Ce is coming back!

Instantly, Ye Shu's eyes were filled with tears, but they were all filled with incomparable joy.

Ye Shu still remembered the time when Gu Changce left. It was the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. At noon, he happened to meet a knight. He only ate a few bites of dinner and left in a hurry.

It’s been a year, a whole year, and it’s almost been one month!
This son had been gone for over a year and had only sent back a few letters, but I often read those letters.

No matter how many letters I receive from home, they cannot compare to the feeling of missing you.

Fortunately, I'm finally coming back.

Ye Shu shed a few tears quietly without letting Gu Jiangmeng notice.

When this brat comes back, I will make sure his father gives him a good beating!
After coaxing Jiang Meng to sleep, Ye Shu held Gu Xun's hand, with an expression on her face that looked like she was half crying and half happy.

"What's wrong, Shu'er?" Gu Xun was also at a loss.

Could it be that Ye Shu heard some bad thoughts from Gu Jiangmeng again!

Thinking of this, Gu Xun quickly pulled Ye Shu into his arms.

"Shu'er, it's okay. I'm always here. I'd rather you not hear Jiang Meng's voice, so you won't be upset. Now that you've heard it, tell me what happened. With me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Ye Shu didn't expect that Gu Xun actually thought that she had heard something bad from Jiang Meng, and she quickly got out of Gu Xun's arms.

"Husband, it's not like that. Jiang Meng didn't say we were in any danger. It's Chang Ce, our Chang Ce is coming back!"

"What!" Upon hearing this, Gu Xun also raised his voice suddenly.

"Is Changce really coming back?" Gu Xun couldn't believe it.

"Yeah." Ye Shu nodded, "Jiang Meng said he will be back in the next few days."

"Great, great."

"This brat, if you want to beat him up when you come back, I won't stop you."

Seeing the lady in front of him seriously pretending to hit her second son, Gu Xun couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Are you willing to do that? Hengyu has made so many mistakes, and you wanted to stop me even when I was beating him."

"Hmph~" Ye Shu snorted softly.

Indeed, I am a little reluctant to fight.

----

In the afternoon, Qiu Sang had already brought back the kite he had bought.

Some are finished and some are not, they are all materials.

Ye Shu thought that this kite had a profound meaning after all. The higher it flew, the farther away the "bad luck" was, and the greater the blessing would be.

I think it would be nice if the whole family could fly kites they made themselves.

Ye Shu took the finished kite, put it aside, and looked carefully at how it was made. After all, she hadn't made it for a long time, so she was a little rusty.

Ye Shu took out a piece of paper, ground it, and then slowly drew the shape of a kite.

The painting had just been finished when the nanny came over carrying Gu Jiangmeng.

"Ma'am, Miss wants you."

[Mother, Jiang Meng misses you. ]

"Just sit here with the young lady in your arms."

[Mom, what are you doing? Drawing? Wow~ This drawing is so beautiful. ]

"Jiang Meng, mother is making kites here, so she can't hold you. You have to be good~"

[Wow, mom is making kites, so cool. Jiang Meng also wants to make kites with mom, but I can't do it now. When I grow up, I will definitely make kites with mom. ]

Ye Shu: Okay, okay, when you grow up, we’ll do it together.

As soon as Gu Xun entered the door, he saw his wife making a kite.

"lady."

"Husband."

[Hey, Daddy is back too. Come on, make kites with Mommy! ]

When Gu Xun heard this, he said, "Let me help you."

"Okay, hold this and don't move it."

Gu Xun was a military commander after all, so it would be difficult for him to pick up a brush to paint. So Ye Shu gave Gu Xun the kite frame.

Soon, a kite was made.

Ye Shu brought the kite to Gu Jiangmeng.

"Jiang Meng, do you like the kite your mother made?"

[Yeah, I like it. Jiang Meng will fly a kite when the time comes! ]

Gu Jiangmeng babbled happily.

After making one kite, Gu Xun continued to help Ye Shu make the rest of the kites.

Thinking about what he had heard in the past two days, Gu Xun couldn't help but want to tell it out. After all, Ye Shu and Gu Jiangmeng would definitely be interested in this matter.

"Madam, there's a big event happening in Anjing City recently, and the rumor is spreading everywhere."

Ye Shu knew that Gu Xun was not a person who liked gossip. Since he talked about this matter, it must be related to them.

"Oh? What's that?"

[Yes, what's the matter? I love listening to these gossips.]

"I heard about the day of the Lu Ming Banquet." Gu Xun started deliberately.

Ye Shu: Could it be related to the eldest son?
[Luming Banquet? Isn't that the day when big brother was plotted against? Daddy, please tell me what happened.]

"After the Luming Feast ended that day, a major event occurred, but it had nothing to do with the Luming Feast."

"I heard that a woman was molested by a butcher on the road. The woman's clothes were disheveled and she cried and wanted the butcher to take responsibility. The butcher was unwilling to take responsibility at first. If others had not refused to listen to his persuasion, the butcher would have been willing to take responsibility."

[Hmm? So this is about a scumbag? It seems that there were many such things in ancient times. Bah, scumbag, I will spit on you wherever you are.]

"But the girl was so embarrassed that she cursed loudly and turned away. The butcher had no choice but to follow her closely. He followed her to a house and found out that the family's surname was Zhou. After all, there was a big "Zhou" written on the door plaque."

[It seems that this woman's surname is Zhou. What a coincidence, she has the same surname as Zhou Jinyue who wanted to plot against my elder brother.]

"The butcher, out of responsibility, boldly knocked on the door and asked who the family was."

"Madam, guess which Zhou family this is?"

"How would I know? Husband, please tell me."

[Yes, yes, yes, Dad, please tell me, how could Mom guess it? ]

"This is actually the residence of the Grand Historian, and that woman is the Grand Historian's daughter."
