"The house is so lively today; it's been a long time since we've had so many children."

The pregnant Fifth Madam, who was about to give birth, sat down with a smile. Her eyes were bright and sparkling, showing that she was a gentle and lively person. She sat next to Juanjuan.

Perhaps because she was about to become a mother, she was exceptionally kind to such a young child.

"What an adorable little girl! How old is she?"

Juanjuan nodded politely in greeting, then said truthfully, "I'm almost five years old."

"She's almost five years old, and she's incredibly smart."

Seeing that her fifth daughter-in-law had arrived, the old lady picked up her chopsticks and said, "Everyone, don't just sit there, let's eat."

The food at the General's Mansion was excellent.

Juanjuan kept her head down and ate quietly.

The old lady looked up and saw the Bai family eating quietly, a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

This family is quite well-mannered when they eat; the men are handsome and the women are beautiful, and even their children are all bright and pretty.

Fortunately, Juanjuan didn't know that the old lady was thinking that way.

otherwise……

Jiang Dai: [OMG! This is delicious! As expected of the capital city, as expected of the General's Mansion! This dish looks beautiful and tastes delicious!]

Bai Tian: [Although it still can't compare to those modern seasonings that taste so good even when mixing shoe soles, it tastes so good!!! I'm about to cry!!!]

Eldest brother: [The capital is indeed magnificent! This beef!!! Who in the village could afford to eat this?!]

Second brother... Second brother was very calm and didn't react much.

Third Brother's reaction was quite calm, but as expected, he was preparing to do something big again.

[Indeed, there are quite a few rare items in this capital city. I just need to wait for my parents' business to take off! Once they do, I can find a suitable opportunity to sell some of the things in my spatial storage.]

Juanjuan, who had accidentally overheard another big secret, sighed helplessly in her heart.

You should just eat your food!

The next day, Jiang Dai and Bai Tian went for a stroll in the streets of the capital as usual, to learn about the various prominent families in the capital and the general business environment.

Mu Zhaoyuan was not accompanied, supposedly because some of her female confidantes had come to visit.

Bai Yunxing, originally from the capital, naturally acted as an introducer, leading his family to browse shops along the way.

Thankfully there were horse-drawn carriages, otherwise spending a whole day just walking around would have been exhausting.

As dusk fell, on the way back to the Mu family home, Juanjuan was so tired that she almost fell asleep in the carriage.

She hadn't done any work, just eaten and drank, and went shopping with her parents. How could she be so tired? Juanjuan couldn't understand it either.

may be……

My brother was too noisy the whole way.

Like the treasure-hunting rat in my mother's storybooks, my older brother and mother could always tell whether a family was rich or poor, no matter where they went.

However, Juanjuan was still very happy at the thought of seeing Sister Liang tomorrow.

Children sleep a long time. Juanjuan fell asleep in the carriage and didn't even eat when they got back to the general's mansion. She slept until midnight.

When I opened my eyes again, it was still dark.

Looking at her parents lying on either side of her, Juanjuan decided to go to the toilet by herself.

Then I heard a sigh coming from above.

Top of the head?

Juanjuan immediately looked up.

Then, I saw my three elder brothers sitting side by side on the roof, looking out at the Prime Minister's mansion next door.

The eldest brother, sitting in the very middle, looked incredibly depressed. He had a blade of grass in his mouth, his legs crossed, and he was just short of drinking a jug of liquor like the other men in the village.

The second brother held a blade of grass in his hand, lost in thought. Without even looking down, he could weave a little rabbit out of the grass stalks.

Third Brother looked down at her, a slight smile on his face.

Juanjuan: ...

I don't know why.

Suddenly it occurred to me that the night was dark and windy, a perfect night for murder.
