After nine months of pregnancy, Xu Qizhen gave birth to a daughter.

Her parents were happy and felt her marriage was completely solid.

Others are happy too.

The happiest are Yan Qi and Yan Kai, both of them feel that Mommy gave them a toy.

When her child was full moon, Gu Qingzhou took the whole family to drink full moon wine.

Gu Shao also went.

"Congratulations, the child is really beautiful." Gu Shao said.

Xu Qizhen asked him to sit down.

"What about you?" she asked Gu Shao.

Although she no longer loves him, in her heart, he is still a soft existence, floating there forever and cannot be erased.

"I might get married." Gu Shao smiled.

Too many people have persuaded him recently, and he has learned how to answer, so as to avoid the constant persuasion of others.

He doesn't need persuasion and he doesn't need to move forward.

"Well, I hope to eat candy." Xu Qizhen said.

Gu Shao smiled.

Later, his school became more connected with the Yan family, and he came to the Yan family by chance.

Yan Ziqing did not shy away, and occasionally asked him if he had a partner recently.

Gu Shao always said there would be.

With that push, time flies.

Gu Shao watched Xu Qizhen's daughter full moon and one year old, and then when she was five years old, she watched Xu Qizhen give birth to a daughter, and the second daughter was one year old again.

Every time he chats with Xu Qizhen, Xu Qizhen worries that he will die alone.

And Gu Shao will also assure her that he will be fine and will get married in the future.

This is ten years.

Xu Qizhen's eldest daughter is ten years old, and Gu Shao is still perfunctory her.

That day was the 14th day of the first lunar month, when Si Yuzao, the eldest young lady of the Si family, turned 18, Xu Qizhen met Gu Shao again and said, "You have been perfunctory for ten years."

Gu Shao said, "You guys have been persistent in talking for ten years."

"Anyone else persuade you?" Xu Qizhen asked.

Gu Shao said: "Qingzhou is still persuading."

Xu Qizhen laughed.

Just in time, Gu Qingzhou came over.

She is also forty years old now. She is well maintained, her skin is white and smooth, her waist is still slender, and her hair is black and bushy.

Although the face has matured a little over the years, the background is still so young.

Gu Shao accidentally looked at her from behind, always under the illusion that it was when she first returned to Gu Mansion, but that was more than 20 years ago.

Even Tamamo was eighteen years old.

"Auntie, I'm going to Shanghai tomorrow. If you want to eat and play in Shanghai in the future, send me a telegram." Si Yuzao came over.

She is already taller than Xu Qizhen and has a very good relationship with Xu Qizhen.

Xu Qizhen's three daughters especially like sister Yuzao, and their cousins ​​are very close.

Yuzao has been studying traditional Chinese medicine with Gu Qingzhou and Western medicine with her aunt over the years, and has completed the courses at Edward Medical University by herself.

She had already told her parents that when she was going to study in Shanghai when she was 18 years old, she had already applied for a school in Shanghai.

Today, relatives and friends came to celebrate her coming of age and to see her off.

Tamamo will leave the day after tomorrow.

"Okay, we'll go to Shanghai to play with you in the future." Xu Qizhen smiled, "You have to study hard, don't fall in love, or your dad will go crazy."

Yan Ziqing just came over to hear it, and couldn't help laughing.

There is a story to this.

Yuzao has been close to the Yan family's children since childhood, and she and Yan Kai are even more closely related.

For this reason, Si Xingpei defended against the Yan family's children, just like against thieves, and fought with Yan Ziqing for this.

Yan Kai and Yuzao were helpless.

Yuzao even said, "Abba, you should also read some books. We grew up together, let alone people. Even two little beasts will not have love. This is the law of biology. My brother Kai and I have been close since we were young, and we have been close to each other since we were young. Brothers and sisters are no different."

Si Xingpei: "......"

As a result, the illiterate Si Shizuo became Yan Ziqing's laughing stock.

Yan Ziqing said: "It's okay, you are already a big girl. Your father can't control you. If you should fall in love, fall in love and be mad at him! Did he send you this time?"

"No, my mother was afraid that he would be busy, so I made an agreement with him to travel to Switzerland, and my uncle would send me." Yuzao said.

Yan Ziqing asked, "A Shao sent it?"

"No, my fifth uncle." Yuzao said.

Her fifth uncle refers to Yan Yiyuan.

Yan Yiyuan has been in Singapore all these years, only returning to Yuecheng during the festivals.

This time, he didn't go back to celebrate the Spring Festival, so he went back to visit his parents after the New Year.

His father retired four years ago, his eldest brother and third sister's family moved back to Yuecheng from abroad, Luo Shui and Xie Shunmin also returned to Yuecheng to do business, and their parents were not alone.

This may be the benefit of having more children.

Yuzao talked to them for a while, and was called away by Gu Qingzhou. She and Si Xingpei had a lot to tell her.

Yan Ziqing put her arms around Xu Qizhen's waist and said to her, "Our chess and chess family is also seventeen years old, shouldn't it be time to send it out to study?"

Xu Qizhen was instantly reluctant.

She was sometimes in a trance. She always remembered that when she met Yan Ziqing, it seemed like it was only yesterday.

Now that the children are so old, Yan Kai, in particular, looked at him by chance before going abroad, and he was completely the height and appearance of an adult man.

Xu Qizhen will think: Where has the time gone?

"Am I old?" she asked Yan Ziqing suddenly.

Yan Ziqing smiled and said, "No, she's still so pretty."

This is the standard answer that he and Si Xingpei summed up. No matter how noisy the women are or how they are perfunctory, they must bite the answer and cannot let go, otherwise, they will sit on the bench for several days.

Their children are growing so fast, and they look at the children one by one, and they subconsciously wonder if I am getting old, let alone women who are delicate and care about their appearance.

As the children grow up, it is simply a reminder for women, and the interval between them asking "Am I old" is getting shorter and shorter.

Xu Qizhen also took this to ask her mother: "When our brothers and sisters grew up, did you often ask the same question?"

Mrs. Xu said, "Isn't that true? You won't accept your fate until you all have children. I still think about my childhood, and it seems like it's not too long ago."

It turned out that generations have come here.

When the car arrived at the door of the house, Xu Qizhen got out of the car first and saw a woman standing not far away.

Yan Ziqing also got out of the car and followed Xu Qizhen's line of sight.

He saw Yamamoto Shizuo.

He couldn't help but feel a little dazed, thinking that was Yamamoto Shizuo?

She is really old, much older than Xu Qizhen looks, but her temperament is still good, her appearance is her natural advantage.

It's just that Yan Ziqing can't remember what she used to look like, and even how he met her in the first place is a little vague.

The past, really weathered with the years, turned into ashes little by little.

"Why are you here?" Yan Ziqing stepped forward and asked her.

Yamamoto Jing said: "My son is already eighteen years old, right? You promised me back then that when he turned eighteen, he would let him recognize me. I'm here."

Xu Qizhen turned around indifferently and went back first.

This time, she was still very calm and determined.

She crossed the high threshold, feeling strangely at ease, this is her home, her territory.

What Yamamoto didn't get ten years ago is still the same ten years later.

Xu Qizhen showed a faint smile. Years have not failed her.
