It rained all night last night. The ground outside was wet and the air was chilly.
Prince Kang did not need to go to the palace today, so he stayed in the mansion with his wife and daughter.
The couple was whispering about their daughter's future when a servant came to report.
"Your Highness, Princess, General Ye's wife, and Third Young Master Ye are here to visit the Princess and the Young Lady."
Ye Peizhu was in a daze for a moment, and then her mother and youngest brother came.
Prince Kang knew that his wife's relationship with her family was neither good nor bad, and was not very warm, but since his mother-in-law and brother-in-law were both here, there was no reason not to let them in.
He glanced at Ye Peizhu and said, "Madam, your mother-in-law and brother are here, let them come in and see you and the baby."
Ye Peizhu's lips trembled and she nodded, "Okay, let them in."
She never wanted to see her mother and brother, she just...
Ye Peizhu lowered her eyes and made a plan in her mind.
Soon, the servants led Ye Fang and Ye Shuxun in.
As the general's wife, Ye Fang has a bold and meticulous personality and work style.
She rushed to the outer room and specifically called her youngest son Ye Shuxun to warm herself by the fire first to get rid of the cold air she had brought in, and then she went into the inner room.
Ye Fangshi and Ye Shuxun entered the room and saw Prince Kang and Ye Peizhu. Just as they were about to pay their respects, Prince Kang quickly stood up and stopped them.
"Mother-in-law and Xun'er, there's no need to be so polite. We are all family, so there's no need to worry about these etiquettes."
"Mother, ask my son."
Ye Peizhu looked at them with tears in her eyes.
The last time she saw her mother and younger brother was when she was pregnant with Jiuer.
In a blink of an eye, Jiuer was born.
In order to prevent the old emperor and other princes from suspecting that her prince married her in order to gain the support of her father, the general, she deliberately reduced her contacts with her natal family and became estranged from them.
She has been married to the prince for more than ten years, and she probably only contacts her parents' home once a year, or even longer.
Now she heard Jiuer's thoughts and knew the fate of Prince Kang's Mansion in her previous life.
She suddenly felt so stupid.
Why bother?
She has distanced herself from her natal family to avoid suspicion, but in her previous life she could not escape the fate of having her entire family executed in Prince Kang's mansion.
Then why should she do this in this life?
She really missed her father, mother, brothers and younger brother!
When Ye Fang saw the pale face of her daughter whom she had not seen for a long time, she felt so distressed that she went forward and held her hand.
"Zhu'er, you've lost a lot of weight."
"Mother, mother, mother..."
Ye Peizhu looked at the extra white hair on her mother's temples, calling her mother over and over again, tears streaming down her face.
"Zhu'er, don't cry. You're still in confinement after childbirth. You can't cry, otherwise it will hurt your eyes. Be good."
Ye Fang coaxed her daughter in a gentle voice, just like she did more than ten years ago before her daughter got married.
"Sister, don't cry. I took a day off today to come with mother to see you and my little niece. Father and my elder and second brothers are still at the border. They will come back to see you after the New Year."
Ye Shuxun came forward and tried to persuade his sister.
Ye Peizhu looked at her younger brother with tears in her eyes. He was seventeen years younger than her and was only fifteen years old this year.
"Xun'er has grown taller and more handsome."
Ye Shuxun scratched his head, "Sister, where is my little niece?"
Prince Kang took over the conversation, "Jiu'er is in the crib, she should still be asleep."
"Jiu'er? Is my niece's name Jiu'er?"
"It's called Jiujiu, Song Jiujiu. My baby likes this name very much. I dreamed about it last night and my baby told me to call it this name."
Ye Peizhu explained with a smile, and continued to repeat the lie about having the name in her dream.
She was quite confused about how to tell the prince a few days ago and named the baby Song Jiujiu.
She was also afraid that if she directly said the name Song Jiujiu, the baby would hear it and guess that she could hear her thoughts.
The baby is so smart, he will definitely guess it.
What if the baby finds out and stops talking to you in your heart?
Or what if I become afraid of her and feel no longer close to my mother?
So she thought about it and decided to use the lie of dreaming to say the name Song Jiujiu.
"Jiujiu, Jiuer, it's a nice name. Jiuer is so cute. She's so handsome. Her eyebrows and eyes look like Zhuer, and her little nose and mouth are like a prince. She's so pretty!"
Ye Fang stood in front of the crib, looking at the sleeping Song Jiujiu curiously, praising her in a low voice, the joy in her eyes almost overflowing.
She likes daughters very much, but unfortunately she only gave birth to one daughter, Zhuer, in her life, and the other three were all boys.
After Zhu'er got married, she hoped that Zhu'er would give birth to a soft and sweet little girl, so that she would have a precious granddaughter.
As a result, Zhu'er gave birth to five little boys!
Fortunately, Zhu'er finally gave birth to a daughter.
That’s great!
"My little niece is so small, has very little hair, and is chubby."
Ye Shuxun stood by and commented on Song Jiujiu, and while speaking, he reached out and pinched Song Jiujiu's little cheek.
He pinched her hard and woke up the sleeping Song Jiujiu.
"Wow!!!"
Song Jiujiu's little mouth pouted and she started crying.
Ye Fang frowned, slapped Ye Shuxun's hand away, pushed him aside, carefully picked up Song Jiujiu who was lying on the crib, held her in her arms, and coaxed her softly.
"Don't cry, baby! Your uncle is really strong, so grandma will help you beat him! Don't cry, baby, be good, open your eyes and look at grandma."
[Who pinched my face?! Woohoo! That's too much! I'm still a fragile baby!]
Why did you pinch me so hard? I was dreaming about chewing a chicken drumstick, and I was almost biting it when you woke me up!
Woohoo, so sad! The chicken leg is gone!
Song Jiujiu cried so sadly, and her heart was howling.
When Prince Kang and Ye Peizhu heard Song Jiujiu's thoughts, they glared at Ye Shuxun.
This brat pinched their precious daughter and hurt her! !
Ye Fang, who was holding Song Jiujiu, was stunned. She looked down at the baby in her arms who was only a few days old with a bit of confusion.
[Oh, I hope my teeth will grow soon. I really want to chew on chicken legs!
Hmm? Is that my grandmother holding me? She looks just like my mom. Both are so beautiful!
Hehe! When I grow up, I will definitely be as beautiful as my mother and grandmother!
In my previous life, I went to the general's mansion once after I came back. Unfortunately, my grandmother had passed away by then. Fortunately, I can see her again in this life.
Don't be afraid, grandma. When I grow up, I will protect you!
Song Jiujiu kicked her little feet and waved her hands as if she was making a promise to her grandmother.
Ye Fang looked at the chubby Song Jiujiu in her arms, and finally confirmed that the words she had just heard were the voice of her granddaughter!
She could actually hear her granddaughter's thoughts? !
