Chapter 484: Chapter 484: My Lord, Stay with Me for a Rest_1

...

Once they left Jiuping Village, the road was not smooth, and it was very bumpy; Xiao Changyi didn’t dare to let An Jing ride in the carriage, so he simply led her home by hand.

Even walking was not slippery, but Xiao Changyi’s nerves were still on edge, fearing An Jing might accidentally fall.

As An Jing was being led by Xiao Changyi, she kept her head down watching the road, also afraid of falling herself. Before, a fall might not have mattered much to her, but now she was pregnant. If she were to have a bad fall, what then?

"Husband, I think we should spend some money to hire some people and fix this road," she said. Her pregnancy wasn’t just a day or two’s affair; it would last several months and she would have to use this road frequently.

Xiao Changyi also had this in mind, and upon hearing An Jing say so, he nodded: "Mhm."

"Since we are fixing the road, we might as well make it lead directly to the main road. That way, we won’t have to pass through Jiuping Village whenever we go anywhere, and it will be closer."

"Mhm."

"We don’t have much money left. Later, we’ll see if Meng Lanqing has any. The money earned from the restaurant we’ve instructed Youbao to give directly to Meng Lanqing for managing the rice shop. If Meng Lanqing has used up the funds, we can wait until the next time Youbao settles accounts with us, and then we’ll take out a portion of the silver coins to fix the road."

"Mhm."

The couple chatted all the way to their doorstep. The road at their doorstep was flat, and both Xiao Changyi and An Jing could finally let down the worry they had carried with them on the way.

Upon opening the courtyard gate, they could see that everything inside was just as they had left it, and with Meng Lanqing sending people to clean from time to time, the inside of the house was just as they had left it as well, without a speck of dust.

Xiao Changyi entered the house first and brought out a rosewood chair to place in the courtyard for An Jing to sit on and enjoy the sunshine.

Then, he went to unload the things from the carriage.

An Jing’s belly wasn’t very big yet, and naturally, her body wasn’t that unwieldy, but since she was pregnant, it was still better not to move too much. Besides, she had already moved around enough that day, so she obediently sat in the sunshine. As for her eyes, they watched, smiling merrily, as her husband unloaded the carriage.

After Xiao Changyi had moved the items from the carriage into the house and set them in place, he parked the carriage aside. Then, after giving Zhuri a pat, Zhuiri obediently went to stay in the stable.

Xiao Changyi added some fodder to the stable for Zhuri to eat and filled the trough with water.

Zhuri, extremely happy, neighed several times towards the sky.

Watching this, An Jing laughed heartily. She and her husband’s beloved pet were actually quite proud. Unless it was extremely happy or excited, it would never neigh.

Seeing Xiao Changyi wash his hands and about to busy himself in the kitchen again, An Jing quickly called out to him, "Husband, don’t busy yourself just yet. Come over and rest with me for a bit."

Xiao Changyi had planned to heat up some water in the kitchen, but hearing An Jing’s call, he knew she was concerned about him and decided not to rush. He fetched another rosewood chair from inside the house and sat down next to her.

An Jing leaned in, smiling merrily at him.

After they shared a kiss, An Jing leaned back into the chair, basking in the warm sun, and with happiness, she sighed, "Husband, we are finally home."

"Mhm," Xiao Changyi replied softly, while shifting his chair and adjusting its position. He then lifted her legs onto his own and began to gently massage them to relieve her fatigue.
