Chapter 68: Huanbi has someone she likes?

"Speaking of your pregnancy, it suddenly occurred to me that you should inform your family and let them know the good news."

Although Nian Shilan had never given birth, as a woman, she knew very well that at this time, Zhen Huan would definitely want to share such good news with her family.

"Thank you for your concern, Madam. I also plan to write a letter home in the next couple of days. I think my parents will be very happy when they know about it."

Thinking that she had not seen her family since entering the palace for so long, Zhen Huan's face was full of loss.

"Miss them?"

Looking at Zhen Huan's expression, Nian Shilan had already guessed what was going on. Every woman who entered the palace was like this.

Even though she has been so favored for so many years, sometimes she can't see her family whenever she wants.

However, Nian Shilan knew very well that with the emperor's current doting on Zhen Huan, if he knew her wish, he would definitely be able to fulfill it. It would be better for her to do this favor.

"How about this, I'll go talk to the emperor and see if I can let your mother come into the palace."

"Really? In that case, thank you so much."

Zhen Huan's eyes immediately sparkled with stars. She thought she would have to wait until she was about to give birth before she could see her family.

It’s been so long. I really miss my mother. I wonder how they are doing at home?

"Happy? That's right. You have to remember that you are pregnant. You should smile more. That way, your child will be a smiling one."

She didn't know if it was Zhen Huan's illusion, but she always felt that Nian Shilan seemed to care more about the fetus in her belly than she did.

In fact, this was not really Zhen Huan's fantasy. Nian Shilan always felt guilty about her child. She sometimes thought that if she had not deliberately made things difficult for Zhen Huan in her previous life, perhaps she would not have lost her first child. So now she almost put all her guilt towards that child on the fetus in her belly.

When Nian Shilan left, Huanbi and Liuzhu, who were standing beside her, looked at her excitedly.

"My lady, I didn't expect that Concubine Hua has become so gentle now. When I first entered the palace, I kept hearing all kinds of rumors about her. I was so scared at that time."

Zhen Huan understood that they were all worried about her. She was the same in the past. But now, Concubine Hua was really good. There were many things she had not thought of, and Concubine Hua would remind her in advance. She was very touched when she thought of this.

"Yeah, I didn't expect we were lucky."

Speaking of this, Zhen Huan suddenly thought of something.

She looked around and saw that there was no one else in the room, so she asked Huanbi a question.

"Huanbi, do you have someone you like?"

"?"

Huanbi was stunned by Zhen Huan's words. Why did the topic suddenly turn to her? Although she tried hard to cover it up, she couldn't control the blush on her face.

"Ah, Huanbi, who do you like? How come I don't know?"

Liu Zhu looked at Huanbi in disbelief. The two of them had been inseparable since they were little. How could she not know that her best sister had someone she liked?

Zhen Huan was not sure at first, but now seeing Huanbi's reaction, her guess was confirmed.

"Just, just, my lady, I didn't..."

Huanbi was so nervous that she stuttered. She couldn't imagine how the young lady guessed it. She felt that she had hidden it very well.

Speaking of which, it was just recently that Zhen Huan accidentally discovered this matter.

Ever since she became pregnant, Wen Shichu would come to Suiyuxuan every day to check Zhen Huan's pulse.

That day, Zhen Huan stretched out her wrist to feel Wen Shichu's pulse as usual. Her eyes accidentally fell on Huanbi who was standing beside her. Unexpectedly, she found that the girl's face was slightly flushed, and her eyes that occasionally stole glances at Wen Shichu were even more shy and timid.

Zhen Huan was a little bit incredulous at the time, but after observing for a few days, she found that she was not overthinking it, but that this girl really seemed to have a crush on Wen Shichu.

This is why I asked this question today on impulse.

Although Huanbi denied it verbally, her expression and behavior revealed her true thoughts.

"Huanbi, I've told you all before, including Liuzhu, that if you find someone you like, I will marry you off in a grand ceremony. So, don't worry about my objection."

Zhen Huan spoke to the two of them gently.

Although they were her personal maids, they had been by her side for so many years and had grown up with her. Their relationship had long surpassed that of master and servant. She had long regarded them as sisters, not to mention that Huanbi was indeed her biological sister.

"Young Master~~"

The shyness on Huanbi's face had not completely subsided: "We servants know how good the young lady is to us, but..."

As if she had thought of something, Huanbi's expression turned bitter: "I like Lord Wen, but he doesn't like me. Besides, I'm just a little maid. How can I be worthy of Lord Wen?"

As Zhen Huan's personal maid, how could Huanbi not know what Wen Shichu truly loves? She also didn't want to be trapped in this hopeless relationship, but sometimes, people's emotions are beyond their control.

"Huanbi, Liuzhu."

Zhen Huan looked at Huan Bi with a distressed look on her face. "I've told you before that when the right opportunity arises, I'll ask my father to adopt you two as his daughters. You're my adopted sister, Zhen Huan. How come you're not worthy of me?"

She stepped forward and took their hands: "No matter what happens to you, remember to tell me. If the other person is worthy of your love, then pursue them bravely. Of course, if they are not worthy, then let go as soon as possible. I will always be behind you."

She knew Huanbi's concerns, and she didn't say much about feelings, but she would definitely stand by them when they needed her.

"My dear, thank you."

Huanbi hugged Zhen Huan with emotion. Over the years, she had dark thoughts in her heart in the dead of night. They were both children of the same father, so why was Zhen Huan the daughter of the Zhen family, while she was just a maid who could not see the light of day?

But whenever these thoughts were about to get out of control, they would be suppressed by Zhen Huan's gentle eyes when facing her again. She always seemed to treat them like an elder sister and never criticized them at all.

"My lady, I will not marry. I will stay by your side and serve you for the rest of my life. When Huanbi gets married, you won't be able to adapt without someone by your side."

Liu Zhu also came forward and hugged Zhen Huan's arm and acted coquettishly, but her words made the sad Huan Bi burst into laughter: "Liu Zhu, when will I get married? Don't say nonsense."

For a moment, the sound of playing and laughing could be heard in the house, as if at this moment, all the worries were thrown behind.
