Daqing, the capital.

Shortly after Jindou and Wei Qing returned from southern Xinjiang, news of victory came from the battlefield in southern Xinjiang.

In the most recent battle between the two armies, the Pei family army won a great victory, killing and wounding countless Nanyi barbarians. Pei Shaofeng even killed Kuban on his horse, finally avenging his past grudge.

The Southern Yi leader Wudun fled in panic with his remaining troops. Severely wounded by this defeat, he abandoned his ambition to expand his territory towards Daqing.

Seeing that southern Xinjiang had stabilized and Pei Shaofeng's wedding date was approaching, General Pei and his son rushed back to the capital.

As soon as he returned to the capital, General Pei came to the Duke Dingguo's Mansion with generous gifts.

In the main hall, after the two sides exchanged pleasantries, General Pei stood up and bowed to Jindou again, saying, "I came here today to thank Miss Jindou again for saving my son's life."

"No, no, no, uncle, please don't do this." Jindou, who was sitting on a chair next to him, was so frightened when he saw General Pei like this that he quickly stood up, reached out to help General Pei up, and said repeatedly: "Uncle, please don't do this again, I really can't stand it."

"General Pei, please don't be so polite," Duke Dingguo said at the side. "Please sit down quickly and have a cup of tea."

"Yes, yes," Xu also echoed.

"Duke Dingguo, you don't know..." General Pei sat down, took a sip of tea, and said, "Miss Jindou played an indispensable role in our great victory in this battle against the Southern Barbarians."

"If Miss Jindou hadn't gone to Southern Xinjiang and saved the people there from disaster, and hadn't helped me capture the Southern Barbarians' poison-using Imperial Master, how could the Pei army have won this great victory? Miss Jindou bears the brunt of the credit this time."

"Uncle, please don't say that again." Jindou was a little embarrassed by General Pei's praise. He waved his hands and said, "I just did a little thing within my ability. It's not worth mentioning. Please don't mention it again."

In the main hall, after a few people chatted about family matters for a while, Ding Guogong said to General Pei: "General Pei, my wife and I have something else to discuss with you."

"Duke Dingguo, please speak," General Pei said quickly.

"General Pei, my wife and I have discussed this. Qianzhou is far from the capital, and the journey back and forth to get married is very inconvenient. So we want to bring Miss Yujiao to the capital and hold the wedding ceremony here on the day of the wedding. What do you think, General Pei?"

Let Song Yujiao get married in the Duke Dingguo's mansion? Jindou was surprised and delighted when he heard this.

General Pei was naturally delighted when he heard this and said, "This is a very good move. However, wouldn't it cause trouble to everyone in the Duke Dingguo Mansion?"

"No problem," Duke Dingguo waved his hand. "Yujiao is a generous and open-minded child. My wife and I like her very much. Moreover, this is a happy occasion, so why would we bother with trouble?"

"Mother, thank you." After General Pei left, Jindou threw himself into Xu's arms and said.

"Thank me? Thank me for what?" Xu wondered.

"Thank you for letting Song Yujiao come to our house to get married," Jindou said, looking up at Xu.

"Silly child, what is there to thank me for? Your father and I have always liked Yujiao very much," said Xu with a smile.

After thinking for a while, Xu took Jindou's hand and said, "If you really want to thank me, after you get married, give me a big fat grandson as soon as possible to make me happy. That would be better than anything else."

Oh, Jindou felt a severe headache when he heard this. It's no problem for us to have a baby, but the key is that our second brother has to be willing. This is much more difficult than forcing our second brother to get married.

At night, Jindou lay in bed, tossing and turning and began to suffer from insomnia again.

I originally thought that by forcing my second brother to get married, my grandmother and mother would no longer have any worries, but I didn't expect that now, my grandmother and mother have even bigger worries.

Now that my second brother and I haven't gotten married yet, my grandmother and mother have already started talking about having a grandchild every day. If we get married, they will definitely nag me every day.

However, think about it, aren't these elderly people just looking forward to having a house full of children and grandchildren? My grandmother and mother treat me so well, how can I refuse this request?

As for the second brother, Jindou blinked and thought: If we can force the second brother to agree to get married, we can also force him to agree to have children.

Why not just add a second condition to the conditions proposed to the second brother after the marriage, that is, he must have a child with me. Jindou nodded secretly in the night.

After Duke Dingguo spoke with General Pei, he immediately asked Wei Qing to send someone to deliver a letter to Lord Song, the prefect of Qianzhou.

When Lord Song heard that Song Yujiao could get married at the Duke Dingguo's Mansion in the capital, he was naturally overjoyed.

Mrs. Song is now advanced in pregnancy and has difficulty moving around. She is worried that she does not have the energy to take care of Song Yujiao. After hearing the news from the capital, she is both happy and a little worried. She keeps reminding Song Yujiao of some issues that she should pay attention to before and after her marriage.

Originally, Mrs. Song had prepared four maids for Song Yujiao as a dowry, but Song Yujiao insisted on taking only the little maid who had always been by her side, and did not want the rest.

Mrs. Song had no choice but to agree to Song Yujiao's request. Thinking that Song Yujiao would become pregnant and have children after getting married, Mrs. Song also asked Song Yujiao to bring the nanny who had always been with her with her.

Along with the dowry, Lord Song and his wife specially prepared generous gifts for the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion. They also prepared a considerable dowry for Jindou, which was so full that it filled several carriages.

General Pei was worried that Song Yujiao might get into trouble on her way to Beijing, so he sent Pei Shaofeng to Qianzhou to pick up Song Yujiao.

When Pei Shaofeng arrived in Qianzhou, Lord and Mrs. Song were naturally extremely happy. After entertaining them, Pei Shaofeng and Song Yujiao bid farewell to Lord and Mrs. Song and headed to the capital in a grand manner.

At night, Duke Dingguo’s Mansion.

Jindou ran back from his grandmother's house and was about to go to bed when he heard a knock on the door. He hurried over to open the door, only to find Wei Qing standing outside.

"Second brother," Jindou called out in surprise and joy. You know, after returning from southern Xinjiang, second brother has been living in the Jinyiwei office. It is rare to see him today, so Jindou is naturally very happy.

"Your letter" After handing a letter to Jindou, Wei Qing turned around and was about to leave.

"A letter?" Jindou took it in confusion. Just as he was about to take a look, he noticed Wei Qing turning around to leave. He hurried forward and grabbed him, saying, "Second brother, come in and sit down."

Sit down? Wei Qing stood at the door, hesitant, wanting to leave, but he hadn't seen Jindou for a few days and really missed him.

But if I go into the house, if this guy does something again, I'm afraid my body will suffer again.

After thinking it over again, Wei Qing finally pried away Jindou's hand that was pulling his sleeve, said, "I have something else to do," and turned around and left without looking back.

"Hey, second brother..." Jindou looked at Wei Qing's back and stomped his feet in anger: This second brother doesn't even want to enter the house now?
