After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Weiyang, who had been suffering from morning sickness, miraculously recovered and was able to eat and sleep well.
She attributed it all to the crab roe.
She said that Yan Gui actually believed it and secretly brought crabs to Wei Yang twice without Li Ma and the maids around her. Each time he brought one crab and only let her eat one bite to satisfy her craving.
“Is it delicious?”
Looking at Wei Yang who took a mouthful of crab roe and licked her lips, Yan Gui's heart softened and thought that it would be okay to let her eat the whole crab.
"Take another bite. Nanny Li said you can't eat too much. It should be okay to eat just one." Yan Gui picked up the crab that Wei Yang had put down.
Wei Yang glanced at the plate hesitantly and said softly, "No, Madam Li said that eating too much is not good for you."
The crabs on the plate were big, meaty male crabs that Yan Gui had selected. Wei Yang said she didn't want to eat them, but she couldn't help but look over.
Yan Gui didn't dare to let Wei Yang eat more, so he quickly took the plate of crabs and placed it on the table.
"Knock, knock" There was a knock on the door outside the room, and then came the voice of Nanny Li.
"General, Madam, the Sixth Master of the Su family sent a basket of water chestnuts and a basket of river fish. He said that he personally picked the water chestnuts and caught the fish in the countryside today, and gave them to Madam to try."
Nanny Li knew that Yan Gui had stolen the crabs to feed the lady, but she just turned a blind eye and pretended she knew nothing about it.
Wei Yang stood up to open the door, and Yan Gui followed her out with a light cough. Nanny Li looked at the dishes on the table and winked at Xiao Cao, asking her to clean them up.
In the yard outside the house, there was a basket of fresh water chestnuts, a basket of lively fresh fish, and Su Changle, who was standing in the yard with his trouser legs rolled up and wearing a straw hat.
This is no longer the Sixth Master of the Su family who was dressed in white clothes as white as snow and untainted by dust. He is clearly a farm boy from the countryside.
People need clothes and Buddhas need golden clothes. The banished immortal boy with picturesque features, wearing a short suit covered in mud, suddenly fell from the fairyland into dust!
Wei Yang pointed at Su Changle and spoke after a long while: "Su Changle, what's wrong with you?"
"What do you think?" Su Changle brushed off the dirt on his body nonchalantly and said, "This proves that Young Master Su can support himself even if I don't become a Duke. Look, most of these water chestnuts and fish were caught by me. Tell the kitchen to clean them up so we can have a drink tonight."
Seeing Su Changle becoming less and less attentive to her manners, Wei Yang turned her head and looked at Yan Gui: "How about we go to the countryside and live for a few days?"
Well, Yan Gui is now free from his duties, which is good. They went with the old general. Two families, three carriages, and several horses set off at dawn.
Wei Yang sat in the middle carriage, while Kong Gu, Xiao Cao, and Nanny Li stayed in the carriage to serve Wei Yang. The old general was in the front carriage, served by Old Steward Ding Youlan and Ding Da. Nanny Sun sat in the back carriage with two maids and the prepared luggage.
As the Yan Mansion's carriage turned onto the main street, a guard came out of a nearby restaurant, stopped Yan Gui's horse, handed him a box, saluted, and stepped aside.
Yan Gui lowered his eyes and looked at the box in his hand. After pondering for a moment, he handed it in through Weiyang's carriage window.
Wei Yang opened the box, and on top of it was a big red invitation, which was Xie Jinnian’s wedding invitation.
Xiao Cao at the side couldn't help but say, "Master Xie is also getting married. I don't know which girl he will marry."
Wei Yang smiled slightly. Yes! I don’t know what kind of girl can match the handsome Xie Dalang.
