Beautiful step by step

Chapter 69

Although it happens to be autumn now, a small place like Jiuquan cannot implement the autumn decision.Not only Jiuquan, but even the Liangzhou government on the upper level does not have such great power.All people sentenced to death must be reviewed by the Ministry of Punishment.Especially those with official status like Zhou Qianhu, he himself will be escorted to the capital, where the execution will be carried out in a unified manner.

During the mid-autumn festival when golden chrysanthemums were in full bloom, the people of Jiuquan who witnessed Zhou Dahu's execution were full of joy, but they couldn't see with their own eyes that the chief villain Fu Zhuque was poured on their heads like a basin of cold water.Yan Heng was also a little uncomfortable. He himself had suffered a lot from Zhou Qianhu's hands, so he would be unable to get up or down.It was Wei Wei who reminded him that capital crimes can be put on hold temporarily, but living crimes cannot be escaped.

After listening to it, Yan Heng's eyes flashed, and the lifeless atmosphere around him also became active.Zhou Qianhu was temporarily detained, and he took someone with him to search Zhou's house.

After ransacking the house and sealing up all the finances, the next day is the Mid-Autumn Festival.This is Wei Wei's first legal holiday after traveling. Although she has only been here for two months, she feels that it has been a long time.

And her sigh, in Yan Heng's eyes, was homesickness.

He didn't say anything at the time, but after breakfast the next day, the ingredients for making snowy mooncakes were already laid out on the table.Wei Wei didn't know how to do this, but seeing Yan Heng's expectant eyes, she changed her clothes and rolled up her sleeves and started to do it.

Even with Gu Yu's help beside her, she still couldn't avoid getting her hands and face dirty.Seeing that Yan Heng was clean, she couldn't help splashing her face on it.Caught off guard by being hit by a flour smoke bomb, Yan Heng was not to be outdone after reacting.The two of you come and go, making each other look like clowns.Unknowingly, her complicated emotions disappeared.

In the end, she didn't make mooncakes, but with Yan Heng, who is necessary for home and travel, she still ate fresh and delicious mooncakes.The mooncakes are filled with five kernels, but he made them less sweet and greasy. The stir-fried sesame seeds and peanuts are delicious, which makes her very satisfied.

Satisfied, she drank two more sips of wine. In the confusion, they finally broke through the last step.

Wei Wei was so dizzy from drinking that she didn't quite remember some details, she only knew that Yan Heng was so gentle that night.

After getting comfortable, he hugged her for a while and then left.After a while, Yan Heng hugged her and left the bed, put her in the bathtub, and washed her carefully, before she finished washing, she fell asleep again after being drunk.

When I woke up the next morning, I saw him sitting on the head of the bed, staring at her with his dark eyes.

Seeing her open her eyes, he stammered and asked, "Ah Mao, I couldn't hold back last night."

It was obviously a very serious matter, but for some reason, Wei Wei couldn't help laughing.This fool doesn't think she's not happy.

With bad intentions, she couldn't help but put on a straight face: "You have offended me, what should I do?"

Yan Heng at the bedside was at a loss: "I... I asked you if I could."

"I don't know if you can't take what you say when you're drunk, or are you deliberately bullying me while I'm unconscious?"

Yan Heng almost swore to the sky, "I didn't."

"Oh? I, no, believe it."

After getting married, Yan Heng's performance was nothing to say, she knew quite a few female bosses in her previous life.Most of them not only hope that their other half can be a caring and warm man, and cook dinner every day when they get home from get off work; they also hope that their other half can achieve success in their careers, and take part in commercial receptions to bring glory to themselves.

Originally, she thought that there is no such thing as perfect in the world.A person's energy is limited, and if he wants to achieve something in his career, he will inevitably neglect his family; if he pays too much attention to his family, he will inevitably waste his time working hard on his career.

However, Yan Heng made her laugh at herself. He managed to calm down at a young age, and he was merciless when dealing with enemies like Yan Baihu and Zhou Qianhu.Even the house fight she was most worried about didn't need her to take action, he would forcefully crush him to avoid future troubles.Not only can he do well in his career, but during these days of getting married, as long as the place of living is able to afford it, he will cover all three meals a day.Although his cooking skills are not very good, but the taste is really delicious.

In addition, he has many functions.He helped her with haircuts, bathed her, and even such trivial things as getting on and off the carriage, he would hug her and not let her take another step.

Under his meticulous care, Wei Wei feels that he has a tendency to evolve into a rice bug who does not work hard and does not distinguish between grains and grains. He only knows how to eat, play, sleep and sleep every day.

Originally, she thought this was the pinnacle of diligence, but Yan Heng told her that there is no such thing as the most attentive, only more attentive.

He almost wanted to be a conjoined twin with her, and followed her all afternoon, serving tea, handing water, grinding, and cutting paper. After she started counting the accounts, he even took over Gu Yu's work and stood at the table to help her Squeeze your shoulders.

In the end, Wei Wei couldn't take it anymore, and asked helplessly, "Ah Heng doesn't need to go to the Yamen to deal with the rest of the Zhou family's affairs?"

Yan Heng nodded and shook his head again, and said with a doggy face: "There are more important things now."

Wei Wei couldn't help but think of that cruel young man when we first met two months ago.Facing the old bustard without saying a word, he only showed his waist card at the end, which almost blinded her.

Time is indeed like a butcher's knife. Two months later, the boy still has that handsome face. Even because of his well-raised body, his muscles are more well-proportioned, and because he has gained a lot of experience, his whole body temperament is more mature.But all of these can't cover up the wagging tail behind him.

The original high-cold male god has turned into a Erha.

Unbearable, Wei Wei stretched out his hand and scratched his dog's head: "I have enough here, you go to work."

Yan Heng suddenly became excited: "Enough?"

Seeing the aura of estrus all over his body, Wei Wei couldn't help turning his head to stare at the account book.

"You go to work first."

She was treated like this by Yan Heng as shy, and the latter accepted it as soon as she saw it, and walked out of the study step by step.Hearing the sound of closing the door, Wei Wei rubbed his temples and suddenly remembered something.

She calculated that last night was her fertile period, and she didn't know whether sitz bath could be regarded as a scientific and effective contraceptive measure.

Looking at her slender arms and legs, and thinking about her current age, Wei Wei prayed with a bitter face, never let her win the bid.

Then she thought more deeply, even if she missed this time, what about next time, next time?She does not reject Yan Heng's child, but having a child at the age of 20 is her bottom line.If the nutrition can keep up, her body will have matured at that time, and the child she will give birth to will be healthier.

But now she is only 15 years old, counting five years on her fingers.

Five years, in the ancient times before the invention of the small umbrella, if there are no accidents for five years, there are only three possibilities:

[-]. Yan Heng does not have fertility;

[-]. She herself does not have the ability to bear children;
[-]. Both of them are infertile;
None of these three is a good thing, what should she do?
Just when she was mad, a black shadow flashed in front of her eyes, and Yan Heng's concerned voice sounded: "What's the matter, Ah Mao, but you don't feel well?"

Wei Wei was in a trance, she had a habit of paying extra attention when thinking about things, mobilizing all the brain cells until she came up with the answer.Now Yan Heng suddenly made a sound, like a needle pricking her back, so frightened that she quickly retracted her feet and curled up on the chair.

The uncomfortable feeling was only for a moment. After it passed, she looked at the visitor strangely: "Didn't you go to the government office?"

Yan Heng simply explained: "The matter of compensation is too complicated. We will leave for Liangzhou in a few days. I can handle one or two but not everything. I thought about it on the way out, so I asked Uncle Chen to go to Liangzhou for a while." Go to Yanjia Village and find a few people who are educated in the clan to work as clerks in the yamen. I will watch them these few days and see if they are competent."

This is a good idea!
If it wasn't for something on his mind, Wei Wei would have wanted to stamp him in the face as a reward.In fact, being an official is not that difficult, especially for low-level civil servants. They don’t need to worry about the direction of decision-making.As long as you know all the traditional characters of Dayue and know how to use the office tool-a brush, you can usually do it by yourself.

The people in Yanjia Village were chosen first to cultivate their own direct descendants.Although the members of the Yan family were a bit indifferent, given the general environment, could it be possible to give up on people from neighboring villages, or the people in Jiuquan County who were out of reach?That's impossible!Patriarch Yan's mind is flexible, as long as Yan Heng is always powerful, there is no need to worry about him having a second heart; the Yan family works neatly, which is particularly reassuring.

Another advantage of choosing Yan's family is that they came up because of Yan Heng's kindness. It will be easier to deal with in the future, and there will be no pressure from the two major aspects of morality and clan.The wealth of Zhou Qian's family is far beyond the imagination of others, and everyone will be jealous.With Yan Heng watching over the members of the Yan family, their hands and feet will always be cleaner.This is good news for the people of Jiuquan who are looking forward to it.

"It's good to use the Yan family."

Thinking clearly, the guard nodded and activated the Yan family, which is really beneficial and harmless.

It is a matter of great merit to return the private property embezzled by Zhou Qianhu.Those who receive the money will remember the kindness of the Yan family who sent the money.After such a round of distribution, the Yan family can also take the opportunity to develop their own power.

This is the situation that one person attains the Tao and ascends to heaven.

After sighing and rubbing his sore legs, Wei Wei raised his head, just in time to see a pair of concerned eyes.

"What were you thinking just now?"

Why did he come back to the original point after a while, seeing the undisguised nervousness in Yan Heng's eyes, Wei Wei felt a little complicated.

Ah Heng is sixteen this year. This age is still young in future generations. He will probably live another round. He will not consider marriage and having children until he is 32.But in Dai Viet, this is the age at which one can be the pillar of the family.She had met those of the same age in Yanjia Village, most of them were married, and some of them were the fathers of their children at the age of sixteen or seventeen.

And Yan Heng looked at those babies who were still breastfeeding, his gaze softened obviously.Not only that, but compared with ordinary people, there are more emotions in his eyes.Although he couldn't express that emotion accurately, Wei Wei understood what he was thinking.It was an emotion that one had an unfortunate childhood and wanted to make up for it in the next generation.

He is expecting a child.

Wei Wei couldn't help touching her stomach, she was only fifteen, five years before turning 20, and she was pregnant for ten months, which added up to almost six years.In the long six years, more than one-third of Yan Heng's life has passed.

Can he wait?

Wei Wei didn't know what to say for a moment.

"What are you worried about?"

Excited, Yan Heng's emotions froze, looking at her hand stroking her stomach.Stomach, Ah Mao Kuishui is not these days, and the snowy mooncakes at noon will not spoil her stomach, so what is wrong with her now?
"I……"

Wei Wei struggled violently with the balance in her heart, should she say it?

But she was never one to be indecisive.The level of medical care in ancient times was so backward that children born to parents who were too young were likely to die young, and even if they survived, most of them were weak or had congenital defects.Of course, some people are fine, but the probability is too low and there is no prenatal checkup, she can't take this risk.

It's an easy choice to have one to die and the other to burn out, or wait a few years to have a healthy and happy family.

But what to say about it?

After a pause, Wei Wei said, "A Heng likes children very much?"

For a moment, Yan Heng looked at Wei Wei's belly with burning eyes, and he nodded without hesitation.

Wei Wei bit her lip, what should I do in this situation?Since we met, it was the first time that he showed such earnest emotions. His eyes were so passionate that they could burn her heart, which made her unable to speak at all.

"I only like children born to Ah Mao."

Seeing her frowning, Yan Heng added.Most people in Yanjia Village do not take concubines, and Yan Baihu is one of them.Seeing more freedom between brothers and sisters born to the same parents, he knows how awkward it is for half-children to be in the same family.

People who are officials like to take concubines, saying that it is a matter of face, but in reality they are still greedy for flowers and lust.

But he is different, he has already married the best Ah Mao in the world, and other women can no longer catch his eyes.That being the case, his child can only be born by Ah Mao.

"Can……"

Closing her eyes, gritted her teeth and said cruelly, Wei Wei said aggrievedly: "But I probably have to keep Ah Heng waiting for a long time."

Yan Heng was stunned, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind for a moment.First of all, it’s not that Ah Mao doesn’t want to have a baby, she just makes him wait; second, it’s not that Ah Mao hates children, not to mention how kind she is to Ah Yun, she doesn’t even mind those milk babies in Yan’s Village urinating on her; Then he noticed that since he entered the room, Ah Mao had been stroking her belly with her hands, with a very embarrassed expression on her face.

Thinking of this, Yan Heng felt that he was the truth, Ah Mao's body needed to be recuperated.

Looking at her slender body again, it was obvious that her body was not that strong, and Yan Heng was sure of her truth again.

Stepping forward, he hugged Wei Wei, sealed her lips with ten fingers, and his voice was full of self-blame: "Shh, I understand, it's not my fault. Chinese medicine is different, often practicing military boxing can also improve physical fitness, let's find a way slowly. We are not in a hurry, there is Ah Yun if we can't."

Where does this follow?Even the idea of ​​adoptive brothers and children came out.

She hasn't said anything yet, he has already made up a lot of things in his mind.Wei Wei was a little moved, and leaned back against his arms.

But this is already the best result. Five years later, Ah Yun is still under ten years old, and he will not be able to give birth to a child for them to adopt.At this moment, this explanation will not hurt the feelings of the two of them.

With his head pressed against his chin, Wei Wei continued his words: "Ah Heng, it's not necessarily impossible, it's just that the doctor said that weak bones are easy to give birth to stillbirths."

Sure enough, Yan Heng felt even more distressed, Ah Mao had been hiding this matter in her heart, how sad she must have been.

Before she is fully raised, he must not let Ah Mao have a chance to get pregnant.
