Adorable Kids in Space: Lucky Wife is So Carefree

It took us almost half an hour to walk around the Jingcui Courtyard, and that was just a quick look around. Luckily, even Ge'er didn't ask to be carried.

"Mother, Father, Grandmother has put so many treasures in my room, come with me to see them." As soon as we entered the courtyard, Ge'er pulled them inside as if showing off treasures.

The little girl's garden is full of childlike fun. There is a small swing hanging under a big tree, and some of the flowers and plants are cut in the shape of small animals. There is even a small sandpit under a big tree where you can play in the sand. The grandparents have really put a lot of thought into it.

The room was filled with many dolls, some of which were indeed Ru Xiu's works, and they were all the largest.

Shi Jie's room was decorated in a quiet and elegant style, with many embroidered items on display. There was a large seven-fold screen in the room, which should be the work of a famous artist. It was very exquisite and opened Ru Xiu's eyes.

"Does Sister Shi like the room that Grandma decorated for you?"

"I love it so much! I can't even imagine how Grandma knew what I like." You can tell from Sister Shi's words that she wasn't lying.

The children finally went home, and Ruxiu also felt that the exercise she had done was a bit too much.

Are you going to stay in the front yard tonight?

"Now that my wife is here, I will naturally not stay alone in my bed any longer. I will stay with her. I told my father and mother today that I will try my best to have a baby." I never thought he was so shameless before.

"How could you say such things in front of the Marquis? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by Father and Mother?" Ru Xiu turned her face away, deliberately avoiding looking at him.

“They’d love for us to have more children. The day I came back, they told me the mansion was too quiet and they were just waiting for me to come and urge us to have more.” I really couldn’t stand his shameless attitude.

“We were poor before, and I was too busy to take care of you. I don’t even know how the previous children were born or grew up. Let’s have one or two more children so I can experience what it’s like to be a father again.” Park Heung became serious when he talked about this, holding Ru Xiu’s hand with a guilty look on his face.

"You really don't have to go to the border town anymore? That's wonderful!" Ru Xiu jumped up happily, hugged his neck, and kissed him.

Park Heung took the opportunity to carry her to the bed, undressed her, and pressed himself against her without even needing the servants to attend to her.

Fortunately, Amber was quick-witted. After the young master and young ladies left, she reminded Anlan and Sizhu that the young mistress and young master had been separated for too long and might be impatient. So she retreated to the door early to wait.

Hearing the tender sounds of lovemaking behind the door, the two shy girls took a few steps back, but were secretly delighted.

The young mistress and young master have returned, and the Marquis's mansion has finally come back to life. It would be even better if they could add more family members soon.

The awarding of titles took place after the morning court session. The invitations from the two men in the Marquis's residence had been collected and submitted well in advance, along with General Jiao.

General Jiao was already a first-rank general of the cavalry, and the emperor bestowed upon him the title of Marquis of Taiping, along with countless amounts of gold and silver, to continue guarding the border city.

He didn't say anything to Emperor Park Heung, but simply asked him what he wanted. Park Heung knew that those in power were very sensitive about the distribution of power, so it was best not to bring up these matters at this time. Others could give it to you, but you couldn't ask for it yourself, otherwise it would be distorted. Park Heung expressed his determination to stay in the capital to take care of his elderly parents.

Before returning to the capital to reunite with his family, Park Heung was one of the people the emperor was considering. Although he came from an ordinary family, his bravery and skill on the battlefield made him stand out among the many soldiers and win the favor of his superiors.

After several battles where his strategies were sound, the emperor believed that this man had the qualities of a great general and had long reserved a place for him in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Park Heung comes from a military family, making him a rare talent in both military and political affairs.

"You will stay by my side and serve as my strategist and general for now."

Military advisors, also known as strategists, do not hold military power. A "military advisor general" is the chief of staff, responsible for organizing and leading the military's construction and operations, and ranks second-class. In peacetime, they are equivalent to advisors to the emperor.

Also known as military service, it entitles one to certain benefits. Without military power, it prevents the creation of a powerful family with two powerful members, or one whose merits overshadow the emperor, thus putting the emperor at ease.

Park Heung immediately knelt down to express his gratitude, and the rewards naturally included a lot of gold, silver, shops, and land.

According to rank, two sixth-rank attendants and six fifth-rank guards could be used. Park Heung directly reported the eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth to the Ministry of Personnel. He also reported the two guards that the Marquis had chosen for him.

Besides the fifteenth, the other sixth-rank attendant was directly assigned by the Ministry of Personnel. As a Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations), he was perfect for the role of "secretary".

When the father and son returned home and had lunch together, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; the family's wish had finally come true.

"You've just returned to the capital, so be careful in everything you do. Only inquire about the war with the Emperor, and don't get involved in anything else," the Marquis reminded Park Heung.

"Xing'er will heed Father's teachings and will not act rashly." Hearing this, the Marquis finally felt relieved.

The emperor feared that young people would not know the importance of things and would become complacent with their small achievements on the battlefield. The emperor could not stand such people.

Since ancient times, serving a ruler has been like walking on thin ice. Only those who are naturally shrewd and know how to read people's hearts can stay by the emperor's side for a long time. If one has no achievements in politics, one will displease the emperor. But if one has outstanding achievements, one is likely to become too powerful and arouse the emperor's suspicion.

"I will tell you about the affairs of the court in the future. Brother Xi and Brother Le should also listen. You all want to take the exams in the future, so it's good to get to know the affairs of the court as soon as possible."

Seeing their grandfather's serious expression, Xige and Lege quickly nodded in agreement.

The women of official families must not bring shame to their families. Ru Xiu also admonished her three daughters to listen carefully to the teachings of their governess starting tomorrow.

"The clan meeting will be held the day after tomorrow. Recognizing your ancestors is just one part of the ceremony. Everything has been arranged. You just need to dress neatly and attend. You don't need to worry about anything else. Just remember that you are the true masters of the Marquis's mansion. Just know your place."

Judging from what the Marquis said, it seems someone might be planning something.

"You all rest for a while. Your sister and the prince will be back in the afternoon. We'll have dinner together as a family in the evening."

General Jiao once said that Park Heung's twin sister, Park Ja-wol, married Fan Cheng, the heir of a Duke's mansion during the Republic of China era. It was a perfect match for the eldest daughter of a marquis's family to marry the heir of a duke's mansion. They had already given birth to two sons and one daughter.

When the Crown Prince's wife returned to her parents' home, she would first pay her respects to her mother. Ru Xiu and the children got up early and waited for the old woman from her mother's side to come and greet them before the whole family went to Qixia Courtyard.

After entering and greeting Grandma An, Ruxiu was seated on the left side at the lower end of the table, with the children standing behind her.

"This is your sister-in-law, the wife of the heir of the Duke's Mansion during the Republic of China era, and also the children's aunt."

Ru Xiu quickly stood up and exchanged greetings with her sister-in-law.
