"The fish here is different from ours. The meat is not salty and has less fishy smell. It is said that a lot of spices are put into the fish soup, so there is no fishy smell at all. It is very fragrant and delicious."

"Oh? Really?"

"It smells very fragrant."

"What did you eat?"

"All kinds of things, bamboo tube rice, beggar chicken, flower cakes... The products here are so rich."

"Yes, I saw carts of food transported down the mountain. It would be great if we could grow so much food there.

...

"The people here are so warm."

"I have begun to like this place."

"I like it too, but when I go to bed at night, I will think of the days when I was by the sea. There is no salty and humid sea breeze here, and I can't hear the sound of the tide at night. There are a few days when I can't hear the sound of the waves, and I really miss it. "

Several soldiers from the seaside gathered together to discuss what they had seen and heard in Xinyang City, and they were looking forward to living here in the future.

The house where Duan Shubai and Xiao Yuhe lived had been changed into a small courtyard with three entrances. The structure was larger. The lotus pond in front of the house was enclosed in the courtyard. A rockery, curved water corridor, pavilion and a wooden arch bridge were rebuilt.

Next to it was a dark-colored large vat. In the small lotus leaves, several elegant white water lilies with yellow stamens grew.

For the child's third-day bath, Duan Shubai set up a banquet in the courtyard.

The peach and crabapple trees in the main courtyard were hung with festive and joyful colored silks. Xiao Yuhe's body had not recovered yet. His mother Ma Shuqin was outside to welcome the guests, set up tables and chairs, wine and food, and various utensils that would be used later.

Ma Shuqin was worthy of being the wife of the eldest son of the Marquis's Mansion for many years. She handled these things with ease and managed them properly, so that no one could find any faults.

With Ma Shuqin taking care of things outside, Duan Shubai found time to go to the room to accompany Xiao Yuhe, who was in confinement, and play with the child intimately.

Xiao Yuhe had not yet gotten out of bed, but was wearing a white undergarment. He was already in good spirits, with black hair and white skin, and his bulging belly disappeared, returning to his elegant and noble appearance.

He pursed his lips lightly, and his black hair naturally fell on his shoulders. He just sat there diagonally, his fox eyes glaring lazily, and a sense of elegance came naturally.

He didn't look like a child's father at all.

Xiao Yuhe raised his right hand and unconsciously stretched it towards his abdomen. This has been his habitual action for the past few months. When he found that his hand touched a flat area, he was shocked.

Huh... When he remembered that he had given birth to the child, Xiao Yuhe was relieved. After the lump in his stomach disappeared, he was really a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Duan Shubai came in from outside holding the child. The child in the swaddle had just eaten his fill at the nurse's place, and now he was quietly spitting out milk bubbles in his arms.

Seeing him coming in, Xiao Yuhe hurriedly said, "I want to hold the child."

Seeing that he was in good spirits, Duan Shubai raised his lips and held the child over. Xiao Yuhe leaned over to take the child, but accidentally pulled the pain on his body, and he gasped. "Hiss--"
