Inheriting a Legacy and Traveling to Ancient Times

In her previous life, Zhao Qingyan grew up in an orphanage. She unexpectedly activated a pocket dimension and began hoarding supplies. After spending all her savings, an accident transported her to...

Chapter 855 Hong Xiangjun Gives Birth to a Son

With those uncomfortable things gone, Zhao Qinghe felt much more comfortable and was now in the mood to observe everyone in the bridal chamber.

Wow, there are quite a few people here.

After Bai Hetang introduced them one by one, the sisters-in-law greeted Zhao Qinghe.

He instructed someone to bring food to Zhao Qinghe before going to the front yard to entertain the guests.

Zhao Qinghe also got to know most of the female members of the Bai family.

The Bai family is indeed a large and influential family, with a considerable number of members.

Grandpa Bai had a total of seven children, five sons and two daughters.

Bai Wenyuan's branch alone has four children: Bai Henian, Bai Heli, Bai Heyun, and Bai Hetang, not to mention the other branches.

There are basically five or six children in each room.

The two married aunts had fewer children, three and two respectively.

Even though Zhao Qinghe had a good memory, she still felt a chill run down her spine when she saw so many sisters-in-law.

"Xiao Tang's wife, I'm your sister-in-law. We live in the second courtyard of Zifeng Garden. I've always wondered what kind of wife Xiao Tang would marry, and today I've finally met her."

She truly is a celestial being.

Zhao Qinghe was a little puzzled, thinking to herself, "Why are you coming up here to tell me where you're staying? I don't know the way."

Zhao Qinghe didn't show what she was thinking on her face. Being a newcomer, she decided to pretend to be shy.

Zhao Qinghe wanted to keep a low profile, but her sisters-in-law didn't give her the chance.

The legend of Zhao Qinghe riding a tiger into the capital still exists.

The women chattered amongst themselves, asking Zhao Qinghe where the tiger had gone and how she had raised it, among other things.

Hearing that Zhao Qinghe had left the tiger in Lingnan, the women were quite disappointed.

This was the closest they had ever gotten to a tiger, and they even wanted to ask their new sister-in-law if they could touch it.

Zhao Qinghe could easily see through her sisters-in-law's thoughts. Seeing how curious they were, Zhao Qinghe decided to satisfy their curiosity.

She summoned her dowry maid to bring over a beautifully crafted rattan cage.

With a smile, she said, "I've always worried that the women of our Bai family are all delicate women who are always reading and studying, but seeing them today has been quite a surprise."

Since all of you ladies are so lively, and we couldn't see the tiger, I'll make it up to you by showing you my other pets.

It's so cute! Its name is Little Green. Would you like to see it?

Amidst the clamor of "I want to see," Zhao Qinghe slowly opened the cage lid and gently shook the bamboo cage.

"Wake up, you lazybones, come out and greet the guests."

The women looked as if they were constipated; what kind of lewd words were these?

Little Green indeed woke up to Zhao Qinghe's gentle call.

It stretched its little body and slowly poked its head out of the cage.

"Ah...ah..."

Several screams rang out, startling Little Green.

Immediately following was a series of crackling sounds. The women no longer dared to look at the pet and turned to run away.

Those standing at the back didn't react in time and were knocked down by those in front.

The entrance to the bridal chamber was instantly piled high with Arhats.

"Are you trying to put on a circus act?"

Amidst the panicked cries, a light and melodious female voice suddenly rang out, and the culprit looked puzzled.

If one could ignore the cunning in her eyes, one would definitely think she was a simple and innocent person.

In a panic, someone turned around and glanced in Zhao Qingyan's direction, only to find that Xiao Lü's head was no longer in the bamboo cage.

"The snake, where is the snake?" The voice trembled violently.

Zhao Qinghe smiled with narrowed eyes, "I guess she was so frightened by you that she fainted right now."

Everyone...

This is utterly inhuman! What do you mean by being scared by them? They're the ones who were scared!

Hearing that Xiao Lü had fainted, everyone gradually calmed down and quickly got up from the ground one by one.

Some were dropped, some were hit, and some were crushed.

Cries of pain escaped from these delicate young women, making Zhao Qinghe's skin crawl.

Good heavens, these women are terrifying.

Who's scary? Don't you have any self-awareness?

After getting up, the women patted themselves down, tidied themselves up, and then bid farewell to Zhao Qinghe.

This sister-in-law is terrible; it's best to avoid contact with her in the future.

Zhao Qinghe was thus isolated by accident, and from then on, no one in the Bai family dared to provoke her.

Not long after Zhao Qinghe got married, Hong Xiangjun gave birth to a boy.

The boys in the Zhao family are worthless. Although everyone was happy for Zhao Qingyang and his wife, they weren't so excited that they lost their bearings.

Of course, the appropriate congratulatory gift is indispensable.

Especially for Zhao Qingyan, her aunt, the most precious gift came from Yan Yue, her grandmother.

What's most surprising is that this little guy is also born with superhuman strength.

When Madam Hong learned that her daughter had given birth to a grandson, she immediately burned incense to thank her ancestors for their blessings.

The fact that Hong Xiangjun had broken off her engagement was almost a source of great anxiety for Madam Hong.

She worries if her daughter doesn't get married, she worries if she gets married but doesn't have children, and she worries if she gets pregnant and it's a girl. That's enough to keep her from worrying.

Now that she has learned that her daughter has given birth to a son, Mrs. Hong is relieved.

"Thanks to our ancestors for blessing our Xiangxiang with a son..."

Why should we thank our ancestors for giving birth?

On the third-day celebration, Madam Hong was quite high-profile.

Now everyone knows that Miss Hong has given birth to a son.

"Hmph, back then you all backed away when you saw my Xiangxiang break off the engagement, and even complained about my daughter's bad reputation. No one is more fortunate than my daughter."

Look, she gave birth to a baby boy as soon as she walked in the door. Let those old hags be envious.

While choosing a gift for her grandson, Mrs. Hong was inwardly grumbling.

I don't know if it's a cycle of cause and effect.

Because Hong Xiangjun broke off her engagement, those families were afraid that the Hong family would have designs on their nephews and nieces, so they took the initiative to distance themselves from the Hong family.

As a result, the sons of those families did get married, or they either didn't have children, or they had daughters.

Now Madam Hong can finally vent her anger.

But Madam Hong was still uneasy when she didn't see her grandson, always worried that she was dreaming.

On the day of the baby's third-day celebration, Madam Hong saw her grandson and finally felt relieved.

"My grandson is so handsome. If Xiangxiang has a daughter next time, she'll have both a son and a daughter."

Madam Hong looked at her grandson with affection, but what she said left everyone speechless.

"Mother, I just gave birth..." Hong Xiangjun said with a resentful look.

Hong Xiangjun's sister-in-law, however, was amused.

"Little sister, don't be upset. Your mother is just concerned about you and hopes that you can have both a son and a daughter and have a smooth life."

Hong Xiangjun took a deep breath, "Yes, I appreciate your kind words, sister-in-law. I also feel that I am very fortunate."

This kid has a big appetite; his aunt started providing him with milk powder and goat milk early on.

My grandmother gave me gold locks and jade pendants.

Not only that, this little guy didn't need any clothes made until he was five years old..."
