In May, the sun is hot and it will only get a little cooler until the wind blows at dusk.

After the day's errands, Yao Jiting packed up the table and went out with several colleagues.

"Yude, are you free on the tenth day of the first lunar month?"

As he walked, someone slapped his left shoulder. Yao Jiting turned around and met Yang Chuan, a Jinshi of the same subject, with a spirited face. Yao Jiting smiled, "Why, Brother Yang has a happy event?"

Yang Chuan pulled out his folding fan and shook it, and said with a smile: "Happiness is not considered a birthday. It's the tenth day of the first lunar month. I want to invite a few friends to Yipinzhai to have a mat. After the mat, I took a boat tour of the lake and took a rest and had a good time. Xianzong and the others all agreed that you were the only one left. How about it, are there any arrangements for Yude that day?"

Yao Jiting pondered slightly. On the tenth day of the lunar month, he had already agreed to accompany his wife to burn incense. However, Yang Chuan specially invited him on his birthday. It seemed that he was not suitable for him not to go. Moreover, he is now working in the Ministry of Revenue, the head of the Shanxi Qingli Department, and Yang Chuan was assigned to the Ministry of Works. However, Yang Chuan's father was the doctor of the Shanxi Qingli Department, which was his head...

"Of course I have to congratulate Brother Yang on my birthday." Yao Jiting did not hesitate for too long and quickly made a decision.

Yang Chuan thanked him loudly and went home directly.

Yao Jiting smiled calmly, and thought of his wife who had been waiting for him for a few days at home, and was a little embarrassed.

"I won't go home when it's dark, why are you doing standing here?"

A familiar and majestic voice suddenly came from behind. Yao Jiting felt a stern in his heart, and he quickly cheered up and saluted the person, "Father-in-law."

Lu Zhan responded faintly.

Yao Jiting explained respectfully, of course, only mentioned that Yang Chuan invited him to travel with him, but did not mention that he was destined to have a happy appointment with his wife.

Lu Zhan disliked the scholars' style the most, and frowned and reminded: "You can drink, don't touch those singers."

"My father-in-law is worried too much, but we have a few of us gathered together in the same class, and there is no singer, otherwise I wouldn't agree." Yao Jiting lowered his head and promised.

When Lu Zhan was able to marry his daughter to Yao Jiting, he naturally checked Yao Jiting's behavior in advance. He knew that this was the truth and left after warning his son-in-law. Yao Jiting followed his father-in-law respectfully and kept sending Lu Zhan onto the carriage. Then he got on his own carriage and went home.

Lu Yun was making autumn robe for her husband in the house. When her husband returned, she was very happy, but when she learned that her husband could not accompany her to burn incense and pray for children, she immediately disappeared and looked at her husband with a sad face.

Yao Jiting felt very guilty, but he had his difficulties. He came over and held his wife's shoulder and explained: "Ajun, official social engagements are indispensable. I spent more than three years in the Hanlin Academy before I was assigned to the Ministry of Revenue. If I want to go up, I must be recommended by Lord Yang. Now I have a good relationship with Yang Chuan, which will be beneficial to my future promotion."

Lu Yun didn't understand and said softly: "Mr. Yang is a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, so is my second brother. With my second brother's help, you still care about him..."

Yao Jiting interrupted her with a smile: "It's different. I'm in the Shanxi Qinglisi Department, and my second brother is in charge of the Zhejiang Qinglisi Department. Otherwise, wouldn't I accompany you?

Lu Yun understood, but the couple who had been waiting for many days had disappeared all of a sudden, and she was just unhappy.

"Wait a little longer, I will definitely be with you on the 20th." Yao Jiting kissed his wife's little face and promised confidently.

Lu Yun didn't raise his eyes, and his eyebrows were still frowning. He burned incense and prayed for a child. The sooner she asked the Bodhisattva to send her children, the sooner the Bodhisattva would help her. Moreover, she would not go because her husband did not accompany her. The Bodhisattva had spirit in heaven, so she must feel that she was not sincere enough. After biting her lips and thinking, Lu Yun sighed: "Forget it, you go to the banquet. I will ask my sister-in-law tomorrow. If my sister-in-law is free, I will ask my sister-in-law to accompany me."

The wife didn't blame him, Yao Jiting breathed a sigh of relief, but smiled and said, "What are you doing with Fei? Isn't it enough to let my grandmother accompany you?"

Lu Yun immediately shook his head and lied guiltily: "Grandma is old and it's too hard to ride a carriage. I'd better go with my sister-in-law."

Every day, she has to bear the gaze of Mrs. Yao looking forward to her having a child. Lu Yun now has to worry even when she goes to the morning and evening front of Mrs. Yao, for fear that she can go out when she sees Mrs. Yao, so she can't go out. How could she suffer by herself? Traveling with her sister-in-law is relaxing, and she is in a state of peace with her.

Yao Jiting is a man, and he doesn't understand the twists and turns in a woman's heart. He thought his wife was really filial to her grandmother. He was very pleased and hugged the person and praised him: "Ajun is so nice. If you are so considerate, your grandmother will definitely like you more and more."

Lu Yun leaned in his arms and laughed silently, his smile bitterly.

The next day, Yao Jiting continued to work at the Ministry of Revenue, and Lu Yun accompanied Mrs. Yao for breakfast. After dinner, Mrs. Yao watched her grandson drink a bowl of tonics to regulate her body, and then said: "When the morning is cool, you can go back to your parents' home now. Ask your sister-in-law if she is free. If she is not free, her grandmother will accompany you."

As for the descendants of the Yao family, Old Lady Yao is too lazy to make trouble and is willing to accompany her granddaughter-in-law to burn incense.

The soup tasted bitter and strange. Although Lu Yun was used to drinking it, he still turned pale and nodded obediently. After the salute, he led Madam Zhou away.

"Madam." Walking out of the yard of Mrs. Yao, Madam Zhou skillfully handed her the candied fruit in her sleeve.

Lu Yun smiled, took the candied fruit and put it in his mouth to dissolve the bitterness left in his mouth. Madam Zhou watched from the side, feeling distressed and helpless. If a woman can't give birth to a child, then you can't blame her for urging her in-laws. Moreover, Mrs. Yao just arranged for her wife to take medicine. This is good in a wealthy family. If she changes her mother-in-law or an old lady, she would probably have stuffed someone into her son-in-law's room.

Therefore, although Madam Zhou was a little dissatisfied with Old Lady Yao, she did not complain in Zhu and Xiao's ears, let alone Lu Yun was afraid that she would talk too much, so she had reminded her long ago.

After changing his clothes, Lu Yun returned to his parents' home with ease.

The Lu family had just finished a marriage, and Xiao had a rare relaxation in the past two days. When she heard that her sister-in-law was going to ask for a child, she immediately replied: "I have time and time, I am going to worship the Bodhisattva, so let's go with you."

"What do you want to ask for?" Lu Yun asked curiously.

Lu Mingyu also looked at his mother in confusion. Why didn’t he hear her mother mention it before?

Xiao smiled and his eyes fell on his daughter, "A Nuan is about to get engaged in July, and I want to ask the Bodhisattva for many things." For example, bless Chu Xing to avoid that disaster, bless her daughter to marry her husband and wife and her husband to have a lot of love, and then bless Zhang Zhang to live a hundred years old, so don't leave her daughter too early.

Lu Mingyu understood the deep meaning in her mother's eyes and felt mixed feelings. She wanted to marry Chu Xing as she wished, but in this way, her parents had to worry a lot about her and were worried about her.

"Then A Nuan, go too. While you haven't officially gotten into marriage, hurry up and go out for a walk." Lu Yun got engaged to Yao Jiting at the age of twelve. Since then, he has been stuck at home and has a deep understanding of the boredom during his marriage.

Whether Lu Mingyu goes or not, she glanced at her mother and asked her to make up her mind.

"Go together, A Nuan also brings incense sticks." At this time, Xiao was willing to believe in the Bodhisattva.

Just as the three of them discussed when they would leave tomorrow morning, in Qianyuan Palace, Emperor Hui of Ming had finished reviewing the memorials and prepared to go to the Imperial Garden to relieve fatigue. Before leaving the palace, he ordered people to go to Chuxing to meet the saint.

A quarter of an hour later, Chu Xing strode to the Imperial Garden.

Emperor Hui of Ming had already ordered people to set up the chessboard and asked him to play chess.

Call him over, just to play chess?

Chu Xing was a little surprised, but he still respectfully sat opposite Emperor Hui of Ming, holding a black son.

Emperor Minghui had something to say to him. After walking a few steps, Emperor Minghui said suspiciously: "I had a dream last night and dreamed of clouds everywhere above Anguo Temple. Shi Jin thought what does this dream mean?"

Chu Xing put down the chess piece and told the truth: "I know nothing about interpreting dreams. Why would the emperor ask the people from the Imperial Heavenly Prison to come and ask?"

Emperor Ming Hui laughed loudly and looked at him and said, "I don't have to think about what the Imperial Heaven Regulatory Commission said. It must be a good sign of good fortune and prosperity. Forget it, it's just a day to rest tomorrow, and I can be lazy one day. In this way, I will accompany me to Anguo Temple tomorrow morning. If I find a rare treasure, I will share some of you."

"Thank you for your kindness," Chu Xing left his seat and thanked him solemnly.
