Chapter 2248 The General's Little Wife 75
"She's in the carriage!"
Helian Chi quickly led them to the carriage.
"mother--"
Jia Qingyou pushed open the carriage door and let them in.
"what happened to you?"
It was summer, and it was already unbearably hot. Tong Cuiyun looked at Jia Qingyou sitting in the carriage, with at least two quilts underneath him.
“I’m fine, I’m just pregnant. My husband was worried about me getting jostled around, so he bought this to put underneath me.”
As Jia Qingyou explained, smiles returned to the faces of Tong Cuiyun and the others.
Jia Qingyou had them all get into the carriage, and Jia Qingfeng sat next to Helian Chi before driving the carriage back.
Once home, Tong Cuiyun immediately started preparing food.
The family sat down to eat, and only then did they settle down together and begin to talk.
"What's this general's business? And what have you been doing for the past six months?"
Tong Cuiyun finished eating quickly and looked at Jia Qingyou and Helian Chi.
She was extremely worried. They hadn't returned for months, and then she heard that there was a power struggle for the throne, that things were changing, and that the outside world had become terrifying.
Later, some people started spreading nonsense, saying that the two of them must have died in the chaos of war outside.
Tong Cuiyun naturally didn't believe it, but in her heart, she couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.
Helian Chi ate quickly, and then told them the whole story.
Tong Cuiyun and Jia Qingyan turned pale upon hearing this, while Jia Qingfeng looked excited.
"You guys... really are... sigh..."
Tong Cuiyun didn't know what to say. She had already said it; it was Helian Chi's family matter. Her daughter was her own, and she should follow her husband wherever he went. But seeing how well they were doing now, she was already very happy.
But just thinking about the bad side, the opposite side, makes her feel a little scared.
"Mother is gone, let's not talk about her anymore. What happened at home while we were away? Why is it like this today?"
Jia Qingyou asked, puzzled.
“Our business has always been very good. About ten days ago, a family came to town. They seemed to be from the capital, visiting relatives. They ate our roast meat and liked it very much. They kept asking to buy the secret recipe. You said you wouldn't sell it, so of course I wouldn't agree! Nothing happened for the past ten days or so, and I thought everything was fine, but this happened today.”
Tong Cuiyun's expression was one of extreme anger. She wasn't stupid; by comparing these events, she could easily understand the connection between them.
"Mother, don't worry, we'll be fine with you here."
Jia Qingyou reached out and patted her hand.
"Since you're all at home, of course I'm not worried."
Tong Cuiyun smiled, her gaze drifting to Jia Qingyou's barely noticeable belly.
"I will resolve this matter in the next couple of days, and afterwards I will instruct the village head to take care of you."
Helian Chi held the teacup and took a sip.
Where are you going next?
Tong Cuiyun understood the meaning behind his words: Qingyou was already pregnant, so where was she going instead of staying at home?
"Mother, she's going to the frontier! It's not peaceful there yet."
Jia Qingyou, under the table, grasped Helian Chi's hand and spoke to Tong Cuiyun.
