Cute Wife Gourmet

Chapter 421 Unfounded Worry

Chapter 421 Unfounded Worry
According to Ye Jiayao's idea, it would be fine to invite a few relatives and friends to the full moon banquet, but there were too many people who came to give gifts. Since they had given gifts, you had to treat them to a meal! As a result, when the list was drawn up, there were actually five or six hundred people.

Ye Binghuai and his wife came, a large group of people from my maternal grandparents' home in Zhenjiang also came, even my second aunt's family came from Shanxi, plus relatives from Hangzhou, Young Master Qiao from Suzhou... there were nearly a hundred relatives and friends alone. It could be said to be the most complete gathering of all the relatives and friends in the history of the Xia family.

There are even more friends and colleagues, including the Marquis’ friends, You’s friends, Chunyu’s colleagues, and Ye Jiayao’s own friends…

Hey, no one can be missing!

So, that day, all the staff of Tianshangju came to help, and they were busy all day long. The young prince Xia Tianci, who had a first-class appearance and was also a master at acting cute, instantly attracted all the men, women, young and old when he showed up at the full moon wine banquet. He was definitely better than his teacher. Everyone predicted that eighteen years later, this boy would be the most noble young master in Jinling City, and the marquis and his wife were so happy that they almost lost their mind.

As for his arrogant father Xia Chunyu, he didn't even have time to show off. He was busy entertaining people all day long like a top. He only came back home with heavy steps when it was almost past the hour of Hai in the evening.

Ye Jiayao had already coaxed the child to sleep and was looking at the list of gifts brought by today's guests. Seeing Chunyu coming back with a tired look on his face, she hurriedly told Qiao Xi to get him some hot water to wash his face, and she personally made him his favorite Biluochun tea.

After Xia Chunyu finished washing up and changed into home clothes, he went to see his son sleeping in bed. The little guy smelled of milk and was very cute. Looking at him, he didn't feel any tiredness at all, only complete happiness.

"Is everything settled?" Ye Jiayao asked softly.

Because there were so many relatives coming this time, almost all of Second Aunt's family members were out, and there were not enough guest rooms at home, so they had to book a large inn nearby to accommodate the guests.

This incident made Ye Jiayao decide that the Nangong Palace house should be renovated as soon as possible, so that in the future, when there is a happy event like this for the whole family to gather together, people will not have to travel far away to stay in an inn.

Xia Chunyu nodded and said with a sneer, "Everything is settled. Uncle Fang wants to talk to me for a while, so I ran back quickly, otherwise I would have to accompany him to talk all night long."

Ye Jiayao smiled: "I heard that my uncle was drunk."

"Isn't it? As the host, I have done my best today." Xia Chunyu said.

"You've done your best? It's all thanks to Lao Zhao and Su Su, the two godfathers, who helped you block the wine. Otherwise, you wouldn't know under which table you'd be lying right now!" Ye Jiayao chuckled.

Xia Chunyu said in a weak voice, "I drank a lot too, okay?"

Let's change the subject quickly. Xia Chunyu saw the thick stack of gift lists on the couch and laughed, "So many gift lists! Send them out."

Ye Jiayao glanced at him with disdain: "Do you think you got it for free? These are favors. You have to pay them back in the future."

Therefore, she had to classify them and count them one by one so as not to forget them and return them to someone else when there was a happy event in the future.

"However, I am a little surprised that the wife of Marquis Yongning did not come this time." Ye Jiayao looked at the gift list at the top. It was the gift list that the wife of Marquis Yongning asked Zhao Qixuan to bring. The gift arrived, but the person did not.

Xia Chunyu pondered, "She is embarrassed to come! Actually, she doesn't need to mind. Although the emperor intends to ignore Yongning Marquis, he will not attack Yongning Marquis's mansion for Zhao Qixuan's sake."

Ye Jiayao understood it as soon as she thought about it. She knew the twists and turns. Chunyu was sent to Ganzhou to suppress bandits instead of in Nanjing. It was Zhao Qixuan and Su Yi who jointly arranged the assassination in Nanshan Palace, saving the prince from crisis and reversing the entire situation. They played an indispensable role. Otherwise, the Yongning Marquis's Mansion would definitely not escape the disaster in this purge, even if the Yongning Marquis did not commit any substantial acts of rebellion.

Of course, no one would know that just before the chaos, Marquis Jing'an and Marquis Yongning had a long talk and analyzed the situation. It was half a request from old brothers and half a threat, and they finally persuaded Marquis Yongning to hold his troops.

The trump card that the old marquis brought out really shocked the Yongning Marquis, which was the assassination attempt at the Nanshan Palace. In other words, your son has long been the prince's man, and helped the prince to beat Prince Yu, causing Prince Yu to start to go downhill. What if Prince Yu knew about this, would your son still be alive? Only if the prince wins, your Yongning Marquis Mansion can have a way to survive.

It was also thanks to Marquis Yongning that he did not participate in the rebellion, otherwise, it would be hard to say who would have won that night.

"I'll ask her to go to a dessert shop some other day. She seems guilty if she keeps hiding. The emperor didn't blame her, so why shouldn't she be open and honest?" Ye Jiayao said.

Lao Zhao is a good friend of the couple, and now he is Tianci's godfather. Lao Zhao is not in Jinling all year round, so she would naturally help him if she can.

Xia Chunyu agreed with that. He rubbed his brows and felt a little sleepy, so he said, "You have been busy all day. Go to bed early. There will be no late sleep tomorrow."

Ye Jiayao felt a headache when she thought about going to the dock to see Ye Binghuai and her so-called stepmother off tomorrow morning. The two of them went to bed and the little guy slept in the middle. Although they were both very tired, they couldn't help but lose all sleepiness when they held their son's hand and looked at his peaceful sleeping face. They couldn't help but look at him enough.

"Yaoyao, our son is so handsome. I've never seen such a handsome child." Xia Chunyu was complacent. He kissed his son's forehead and stretched his neck to kiss her.

Ye Jiayao quickly held it back with one hand: "Be careful not to crush your son."

Rolling his eyes at him, he said, "I see you've become more and more unruly lately. You're always like a woman selling melons. Our son is loved by everyone and flowers bloom wherever he goes. Do you need to tell me? Everyone has sharp eyes."

"That's right, even a blind man can't see it, he'd be intoxicated by the smell of my son's fragrance." Someone, still arrogant, simply ignored the first half of the sentence.

Ye Jiayao was speechless. She had always thought that this guy was as calm and steady as a mountain, but she didn't expect that since the birth of the child, he became out of tune. His ability to brag and boast was almost catching up with Zhao Qixuan.

He talks about my son to everyone he meets, and he talks about my son every other sentence, as if he is the only son in the world.

You should be happy that you have a son, but it's been a month already. Can you cool down your excitement a little?
It's really unbearable.

"My son is very smart and clever. He will surely be a man of both civil and military talents in the future. He will definitely be better than me..."

Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes and looked at the top of the tent in silence. It was about to start again.

"Today, Helian Xuan said that if he has a daughter in the future, he will get engaged to our son. I didn't agree to this. What if his daughter is like Naya, a tigress? Wouldn't my son be at a disadvantage? Besides, my son is so handsome now. When he grows up, he will definitely be a handsome man with no boundaries. There will be no good girls who can get him. With just a finger hook or a glance, women will flock to him and go crazy for him. Oh, you said that our son is so outstanding, but it is also a trouble..."

Although he was talking about trouble, that person's expression didn't look like he was in trouble at all. Instead, he seemed very excited and complacent.

Ye Jiayao couldn't stand it any longer: "Xia Chunyu, shut up."

"What are you doing? I'm talking about serious matters that concern my son's lifelong happiness..." someone said righteously.

"Bah, our son is only a month old and you're already talking about your lifelong event. Xia Chunyu, are you determined to keep turning into a stupid donkey and never look back? Haven't you noticed that people are looking at you differently recently?" Ye Jiayao said angrily.

Xia Chunyu raised his beautiful eyebrows and said with a click of the tongue: "Look at what you said. How did I turn into a stupid donkey? Can a stupid donkey give birth to such a smart child? Of course I know that everyone looks at me differently. They are envious. They are envious of me for marrying a beautiful woman and having such an outstanding son. Especially Old Zhao, he almost drools when he sees my son."

Ye Jiayao sighed, this guy is beyond saving.

"Xia Chunyu, I have no objection to you loving and pampering your son. Who doesn't love their son? But you are a father, can you act a little more like a father? If you continue like this, I will have to worry about my son's future. He will be spoiled by you. If he becomes a playboy, I will see what I can do."

Xia Chunyu smiled and said, "Yaoyao, you are really worrying too much. Who am I? How could I not know how to educate a child? Now the child is still young and sensible, I will love him more. When he grows up, I will have to play the role of a strict father. At that time, I will not be able to kiss him and hug him like this. Even if I like him in my heart and I can't bear it, I will have to be strict with him. Yaoyao, there are not many days when I can really spoil him like this. There are only these two or three years."

Xia Chunyu said this, with a hint of melancholy in his tone.

There is no father who does not love his children, but a father is a role model for his son. If he wants to teach his son to become a man of integrity, he cannot spoil his son. He can only silently play the role of a strict father, watching his son grow and being silently proud of him.

Ye Jiayao was silent. She didn't expect Chunyu to say such a thing. It turned out that he knew everything in his heart.

"Besides, our son was hard-earned. You have suffered so much for him. I would feel sorry for you if I don't love him a little more." Xia Chunyu looked at me tenderly.

A warm feeling surged in Ye Jiayao's heart. She thought he had forgotten about her after having a son. It turned out that this was what he was thinking.

"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to sleep." Ye Jiayao tucked the quilt in for the child, then closed her eyes against the child's face, letting the feeling of happiness slowly ferment in her heart. She was very happy. With such a husband and such a son, her life was complete.

Xia Chunyu stretched his neck and kissed both of them on the cheek. Having the two people he loved most in his life by his side, this kind of happiness and satisfaction was incomparable.
