Chapter 460: Chapter 459: What Devious Idea is He Plotting this Time?_1
"It’s pouring outside. I rushed back to see you, riding alone on horseback."
Qin Yi’s face was full of sympathy, "Your mother-in-law told me you haven’t been able to sleep from worry. That’s why I rushed in without changing my soaked clothes, only to find you sitting at the head of the bed! You, always failing to prioritize your own health. What if you catch a cold?"
"You’re talking about me? You didn’t even change out of your wet clothes before you came in. Aren’t you scared of catching a cold?"
Su Pan’er blinked back tears, she couldn’t help but tightly hug his tiger waist,"Wait here, I’ll go to the kitchen and make you a bowl of ginger soup..." With these words, she started to stand.
"No need, your mother-in-law already made some for me."
Qin Yi suddenly grabbed her, holding her tightly in his arms, "You! The floor is cold, and you’re not wearing shoes. Aren’t you afraid of catching a cold? Honey, please stay still!"
"Hey!"
Su Pan’er was startled, and quickly held onto his neck.
Once she recovered, she couldn’t help but smile shyly.
Qin Yi bent down, buried his face in her chest, breathing in her familiar scent, and his hand slowly pulled up her clothing to touch her stomach, "Let’s see, how’s our child doing now?"
When Qin Yi left, the little bean growing inside Su Pan’er was almost three months old.
Now that it was four months, her stomach remained flat, showing no sign of pregnancy.
Qin Yi cautiously smoothed a hand over her stomach, his touch as gentle as one might use on the world’s most precious treasure.
"It’s still small, we’ll have to wait a bit longer before we can see."
Seeing his serious nervous expression, Su Pan’er held his hand and smiled, unable to let it go.
Qin Yi reciprocated by holding her hand, as they looked at each other, their eyes conveyed caring, tenderness and warmth.
"Why are you back? Aren’t you supposed to be in Changze County?"
Only now did she remember this most important question.
"Don’t worry, I haven’t forsaken my duty. I received an order to come to Yongze County for official business."
Qin Yi got undressed, gently laid down next to her, "It’s already late, let’s sleep first. We can talk tomorrow."
"Okay, I’m sleepy as well. Let’s rest!"
Su Pan’er obediently closed her eyes and snuggled into his embrace, pretending to sleep.
Before long, she heard Qin Yi’s rhythmic breathing, indicating that he was asleep.
Dark circles lingered under his eyes, suggesting he hadn’t rested properly during his journey.
He had forcibly shortened the three-to-four-day journey to two, probably travelling day and night. She felt bad for him!
But even so tired, his arms still firmly held her in his arms, showing no intention of letting go.
It evoked a feeling of tenderness in Su Pan’er’s heart.
Once again, she buried her face into his chest, clutching his waist tightly, unable to let go.
Qin Yi, our family of three, we must always be together!
Su Pan’er snuggled into his arms and had a good night’s sleep.
When she woke up again, Qin Yi was no longer there. She looked around, afraid that last night had been a dream.
From outside the house, Qin Yi’s bright laughter traveled in. Immediately, she sighed heavily in relief, her face breaking into a smile.
She quickly got up, only to find that it was still raining outside.
In the parlor, Su Hai was speaking enthusiastically to Qin Yi about his grain purchasing and storage, his eyes sparkled, wrinkles smoothed, obviously in high spirits.
Qin Yi was sitting across from Su Hai, listening intently.
But Su Pan’er, familiar with Qin Yi’s habits, understood that the man’s thoughts had strayed far from here!
His eyes were stealing glances at the bedroom from time to time.
"Pan’er, you’re awake? Why not sleep a little longer?"
Seeing her standing at the bedroom doorway with a gentle smile, Qin Yi’s eyes lit up as he waved at her.
"I’m already awake. I’ve been sleeping so much lately, almost turning into a pig."
Su Pan’er replied with a sweet smile and walked over to Su Hai, softly calling out, "Grandpa."
Recently, she had been eating, sleeping, and playing well. Her cheeks looked rosy, making her overall complexion better.
Upon hearing Su Pan’er calling him, Su Hai’s eyes crinkled into a smile.
"Ah, Qin Yi! You don’t know how capable our Pan’er is."
Mrs. Su-Hua couldn’t contain her excitement as she praised her daughter in front of her son-in-law, "A few days ago, she told us to speed up the grain harvest because a heavy rain was coming in half a month. I didn’t believe her then. Unexpectedly, it did start to rain yesterday! It was like a miracle!"
"There’s nothing magical about it, actually. I deduced it according to certain natural phenomena."
Su Pan’er answered truthfully.
Qin Yi’s eyes flickered, he completely trusted in Su Pan’er’s words, and laughed softly.
"Being able to avoid this rainstorm is undoubtedly a good thing. The grain buying strategy is also nice. One, because I heard from your father that we are currently in need of grain. Two, buying bulk when prices are low can save money. Preparation beforehand, making careful calculations, Pan’er, you are indeed very skilled at managing the household."
Hearing Qin Yi praise her in public, Su Pan’er shook her head with a chuckle, about to say something.
But Su Hai already began to speak.
"Let’s not just sit here talking. It’s getting late. Otherwise, we’ll be chatting forever. Pan’er can’t be left hungry, there’s a little grandson in her belly. Let’s eat first and discuss things later."
Everyone agreed and started their breakfast.
As Su Pan’er was pregnant, her breakfast was different from everyone else’s. She had her own specially prepared nutritious meal.
It looked similar to a eight treasure porridge, tasting quite bland. Though it wasn’t very delicious, it was suitable for nourishing a pregnant woman’s body.
After the meal, Qin Yi finally talked about why he returned to Yongze County, "I received an order from Lord Liu of the Ministry of Personnel, asking the county magistrates of several nearby counties to report to him regarding the annual tribute tax and grain levy conditions. I hurried back home and returned two days earlier than planned."
Lord Liu?
Isn’t that Liu Zikang?
Su Pan’er furrowed her brows. While he was officially asking about public affairs, could he be harbouring some ulterior motives?
Clearly, everyone had the same thought, and the atmosphere became tense.
Su Pan’er snorted coldly, lifting an eyebrow, "Has he called you back? Heh, he must be up to something again!"
Qin Yi immediately sensed something wrong!
He frowned slightly, "What happened? Did something happen while I was away?"
Su Pan’er was silent for a moment, then thought of a possibility.
"You didn’t receive the last letter, did you?"
"The last one? I was in a hurry to come back, did you write me another letter after that? What did it say?"
