There are consequences to being a traitorous official.
First: Being born into a loyal official's family. She felt out of place and uncomfortable all over.
Second: Following her loya...
On the other hand, after considering it for a few days, Zhang Xinyue decided to give it a try. If she succeeded, it would be her blessing; if not, it would be her fate.
After feeling depressed all night, Yun Ruibo began to think of ways to strengthen his composure and strive to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Xinyue and her younger brother went to the bookstore seven or eight times but didn't run into Yun Ruibo. Zhang Xinyue was a little disappointed.
Zhang Xinyue's mother and her wet nurse were also quite disappointed.
After finishing up with the wedding arrangements for Ma Zi and Liu Menglan, Feng Chan remembered the matter of Yun Ruibo and Zhang Xinyue.
Sisi was lying in a rocking chair, basking in the sun, while her maid fed her an apple, when Fengchan arrived.
Sisi stood up when she saw Fengchan arrive. "Mother."
"Hmm. Why are you all alone?"
"Old Bai was captured by Old Hei. The Crown Prince went to see his maternal grandmother, who is feeling a little unwell. Mother, do you miss me?"
"Yeah. What did Old Black take Old White for?"
"He went to work as a laborer."
Sisi had the maids bring a chair for Fengchan and then dismissed them. "Mother, are you remembering my eldest cousin and Miss Zhang's affair?"
"Hmm. How are they doing now?"
"Not so good. My older cousin practices his concentration every day."
"..." Would her daughter really tear this loving couple apart like this? "What about Miss Zhang?"
"Miss Zhang would occasionally take her younger brother to the bookstore."
"Then...why don't you find an excuse to praise your older cousin?"
"No. He's had it too easy. A few setbacks would be good for him."
That's true. "Then let's see if they're meant to be."
"Hmm. Is my little sister being good?" Sisi thought that if she called her little sister a few more times, maybe the Goddess of Fertility would really give her a little sister.
Feng Chan patted her belly. "She's doing very well. Your great-grandfather has suggested a few names for your little sister. Which one do you like?"
"good."
Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Xinyue was completely heartbroken.
Zhang Xinyue's mother also started looking for marriage partners for her.
However, Zhang Xinyue had always enjoyed buying books and had fond memories of the bookstore. So, even though she had given up hope, she would still ask her younger brother to accompany her to the bookstore every now and then.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Hei Bao can walk and talk.
In the blink of an eye, Sisi's aunts-in-law, sixth aunt, and seventh aunt all gave birth, and they were all daughters.
Sisi thought she might be overthinking things. Her mother got pregnant around the same time as her eldest uncle and her sixth and seventh aunts. Her eldest aunt and her sixth and seventh aunts all had daughters, so her mother should have too.
After Sisi's eighth cousin also gave birth to a daughter, Sisi felt relieved. She was certain her mother was carrying a daughter too!
Soon, Feng Chan was also about to give birth.
Sisi waited outside, full of anticipation.
result……
The midwife came out of the house with a smile, carrying a swaddled baby. "Congratulations, Madam, the Third Young Mistress has given you another little grandson."
Madam Yun was very pleased. "Good, good, good, I'll give you a big red envelope later."
Sisi was very nervous. "Let me see, let me see."
Their eyes met...
Maeda-sama and Genkumo Jūjū maintained calm expressions. (The newborn baby is not clearly visible.)
Formerly known as Lord Jia, now Yun Xiaoliu tries to deceive herself by saying that her younger brother doesn't resemble that guy at all. However, she would recognize that guy even if he were reduced to ashes.
Her brother's facial expression and the aura he exuded were exactly the same as that guy's!
Sisi thought of pinching Maeda-sama a few times while he was still a little baby. But...
This guy is now her younger brother, her biological brother.
Sisi is so upset!
Sisi forced a smile. "My little brother is so cute. Please take him inside; he's still small and shouldn't get cold."
"Yes, Madam. I'll carry the young master inside now."
"Go in."
After the midwife carried Fourteen inside, Sisi waited a while longer. Once she was sure her mother was alright, she went to find Ning Yirong under the pretext of reporting the good news.
Ning Yirong was picking out a gift when Sisi arrived. He didn't need to announce Sisi's arrival anymore. "My mother gave birth."
Ning Yirong was about to congratulate her when he noticed something was off about Sisi's gaze. "Really? You've come at the right time. I was just picking out a gift for your brother. You may all leave now."
"yes."
As soon as the palace maids and eunuchs left, Sisi lay down on the bed, feeling depressed. "He's here, my brother."
"..." Just what I feared most has come to pass? "What do you want to do? I'll cooperate with you."
What else can I do? "I want to pinch him a few times while he can't talk."
"...He is your younger brother."
Sisi raised her hand and covered her eyes. "He's not my brother, he's my enemy."
"...Are you sure it's him?"
"I'm sure. I might not recognize you even if you turned to ashes, but I'd definitely recognize him if he turned to ashes."
"..." You heartless bastard!
"What sins did I commit in my past life to deserve meeting you two?!" (Biquge)
“I’m different from him. I’m here to protect you from the wind and rain, while he’s here to seek revenge on you.”
Sisi lowered her hand and glanced at Ning Yirong. "Then you block him."
"...He is your younger brother."
Sisi raised her hand to cover her eyes again. "What sins did I commit in my past life?"
"...I'll play chess with you."
"I don't want to play chess right now."
That leaves only one last trick. "I'll dress up as a dancer and dance for you."
How many?
"Ten branches."
"In my past life..."
