Wei Luo had lunch in the guard and returned home in the afternoon.
Yin Hui had just woken up and was about to comb her hair, when she saw him. She winked at the two maids.
Jinzhan and Yinzhan retreated in a hurry.
Yin Hui walked up to Wei Luo and shook his hand first.
The cold outside was penetrating to the bones. Wei Luo came back on horseback again, so his hands were as cold as ice.
“I made two pairs of leather gloves for you earlier, why didn’t you wear them today?” Yin Hui covered his hands with her warm ones, and asked softly while warming them.
When the Yin family’s caravan traveled in winter, everyone would wear thick cotton gloves with rabbit fur inside. Wei Luo had a high status, and Yin Hui specially asked the embroiderer of Jinxiu Building to make him two pairs of fur from the fingertips to the wrists. She had tried it, and it was warm. At least it would not affect his grip on the rein.
Wei Luo: “My Brothers don’t have any.”
The leather case was very warm, and Wei Luo usually used it on the way to the guard. That morning, the three brothers rode out together, and he only had two pairs, which were not enough to give away, so he simply didn’t wear them himself.
Yin Hui: “Then, shall I ask someone to make a few more sets? Later, send two sets to the masters of the house and father.”
Wei Luo: “No, big brother and the others rarely go out on horseback in winter, and the father king won’t have the opportunity to use it.”
It was mainly because he didn’t want to show off.
If his father didn’t like it, he may think he was too delicate, and afraid of freezing his hands while riding a horse. On the other hand, his brothers would also suspect that he was deliberately pleasing the father.
Yin Hui understood and concentrated on warming his hands.
Wei Luo’s eyes fell on her face.
She just woke up, wearing a burgundy jacket embroidered with sapphire blue butterflies. Her waterfall-like long hair was black and fluffy, lining her beautiful face that was pinkish white.
His gaze shifted to the hands of the two of them.
Speaking of which, she hadn’t been so courteous for a while. After winter, he went to work as an errand in the guardhouse. He rode against the wind so many times. She asked him if he was cold, and it was the first time she came to warm his hands.
Having already taken advantage of her beauty tricks, Wei Luo understood after a little thought that she was afraid that he would not be happy to accompany her back to the Yin family to visit relatives, or that he would not take Yin Yong seriously when he went to the Yin family.
Did she want to bribe him in advance?
Just warming his hands was not enough.
He took out a hand and undid the buckle under her armpit.
Yin Hui leaned on him softly.
Wei Luo looked at her increasingly colorful face and asked, “Is it alright?”
Yin Hui lowered her eyes and shook her head, “Tomorrow night.”
He thought her menstruation was completely over.
Although disappointed, he didn’t let go immediately, and carried her into the bed.
The main course was delicious, and the appetizer could also be enjoyable.
When he was satisfied, Yin Hui leaned on his shoulder and asked softly, “When we go out tomorrow, let’s take Xiao Heng with us, okay? Grandpa misses him a lot.”
Wei Luo: “Okay.”
Yin Hui first talked about the things that he might dislike about the Yin family, “You are a nobleman, and my natal family has never seen anything in the world, so I hope you will forgive them for being rude.”
Wei Luo: “Hmm.”
Yin Hui: “If my grandfather mentions adoption, and my second uncle and aunt start arguing, I will take care of it. You can just sit and drink tea, and you don’t have to talk to them.”
Wei Luo: “Okay.”
Yin Hui suddenly stood up, looked into his eyes and asked, “No, we will be talking for a long time. If you think it’s noisy, will you just leave?”
Wei Hao glanced at her: “No.”
Yin Hui smiled, no matter what, Wei Luo still kept his word.
In the morning of the next day, the servants first carried the ceremony gift prepared by Yin Hui to the carriage. Then Yin Hui and Wei Luo went out, and the wet nurse walked behind holding Xiao Heng.
When they got near the gate on the east side, they bumped into Wei Yan and Ji Xianxian, who were dressed up and wanted to leave the house.
“Where is the third brother going?” Wei Yan greeted Wei Luo.
Wei Luo explained, “We are taking Wu Lang to pay New Year’s greetings to Mr. Yin.”
Wei Yan smiled and said, “It should be, Wu Lang still hasn’t seen his great-grandfather yet, right?” He looked at Yin Hui when he asked the question.
Yin Hui replied with a smile, “He hasn’t seen him yet.”
Wei Luo: “The second brother is also going out?”
Wei Yan: “Yes, let’s go together.”
So, Yin Hui and Ji Xianxian went together.
Whether it was a royal family or an ordinary family, it was a happy event for a daughter-in-law to go home to visit relatives. Yin Hui was in a good mood and always had a smile on her face.
Ji Xianxian felt sour when she saw it. She hadn’t seen her family for more than five years since she married into King Yan’s family, and she could only communicate by letter.
“It is really enviable. Your parents’ home is so close, and you can go back whenever you want. Unlike me, my family is in the capital, and I have to wait a long time to send a letter.”
When Yin Hui heard Ji Xianxian’s words, thought that in a few years, when her father-in-law shifts to the capital, Xu Qingwan and Ji Xianxian would be able to see their families frequently, but it would be her turn to leave home thousands of miles away. It was just that in her previous life, her grandfather died suddenly, and there was no one worthy of her missing in Yandi. In the new life, she would rather savour the pain of missing him and keep her grandfather in good health.
“There may be a chance to meet them,” Yin Hui said softly and politely, but it was actually the truth.
But Ji Xianxian felt that her sister-in-law was irritating her. Her father-in-law King Yan would hardly return to Beijing.
After leaving the palace, the two families got into the carriage respectively.
