Side Story – Luo Sheng and Xiao Yunying



But Luo Sheng said nothing would happen, looking completely confident.

Xiao Yunying thought he was showing contempt for imperial power because of his past military achievements.

It turns out she had already started taking medication and knew she couldn't get pregnant.

She was touched, but also somewhat speechless.

“Luo Sheng, actually I have a way to avoid taking medicine… So in the future, if there’s anything, can you discuss it with me? Don’t make decisions on your own. You’ve heard it too, medicine can also harm your body, especially since you’ve been taking it for so many years.”

"I understand. I promise you that I will discuss everything with you from now on and I will not make decisions on my own anymore. As for my health, don't worry. I will take the medicine a few times and then stop for a while. There won't be any major problems."

Luo Sheng's attitude in admitting his mistake was always very good, so Xiao Yunying didn't dwell on the matter.

Besides, she wasn't actually angry; she was just speechless.

Because of this, Luo Qin's younger brother was born two years later, making him eleven years younger than his biological sister.

This time, Luo Sheng was present while his wife was giving birth.

When he saw basins of blood being carried out, he panicked and tried to rush into the house without thinking.

Fortunately, her family stopped her.

Xiao Yunying was also shouting from inside the room, telling him not to come in. She didn't believe in anything about the delivery room being unlucky; she simply didn't want him to see her in this disheveled state.

"I told you I'm fine. If you dare come in, you'll be sleeping in the woodshed from now on!"

Luo Sheng dared not argue with his wife and could only pace back and forth outside.

Xiao Yunying was in good physical condition, and this was her second childbirth. It was over in less than an hour, much faster than the first time.

After she had rested for a few days, she announced something to her family.

Now that she has a daughter and a son, it's just right, and she doesn't plan to have any more children.

For Madam Luo, the Luo family had quite a few offspring, even more than the previous generations, so she naturally had no objections.

Moreover, Madam Luo felt that given Xiao Yunying's personality, it was already quite remarkable that she could give birth to a second child after experiencing the pain of childbirth for the first time.

There was nothing she could do even if she disagreed; she couldn't force her daughter-in-law to have the baby.

She's easygoing, so she doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

In fact, Mrs. Luo was right.

Xiao Yunying only had this second child because of Madam Luo.

After all, in ancient times, offspring were highly valued, and only male offspring were considered to have descendants.

Thankfully, it was a son.

Of course, she doesn't plan to have a third child if it's not a son, because it's just too painful.

Moreover, she has her own plans and can't afford to waste time on pregnancy and childbirth.

Mu Lianrong was naturally worried that her daughter might encounter danger during childbirth, and she agreed in her heart, but on the surface, she said a few words to her because of Madam Luo.

As a result, Madam Luo comforted her instead, saying that such things should be left to nature and that she should not force the child.

Xiao Yunying watched as her mother-in-law tried to persuade her own mother, which seemed to be going against the grain...

The youngest son was named Luo Heng.

Xiao Yunying asked Luo Sheng if there was any special meaning behind the name, and Luo Sheng said he was too lazy to think of a name and just picked one randomly.

Xiao Yunying: ...

However, the name wasn't unpleasant to hear, and the character "Heng" had a good meaning, so Xiao Yunying had no objections.

Anyway, she couldn't think of a better name.

Because when the new emperor ascended the throne, Master Chen returned to the capital to take up an important civil post, which was no longer a nominal position among the Three Dukes and was clearly a long-term post, the Chen family gradually moved their businesses back to the capital.

Chen Yuancheng then left the restaurant to Chen Yuanyao and the sugar and wine workshop to Xiao Yunying, and made an agreement with her that after returning to the capital, they would only supply the palace with its needs and would not use this method to make money.

In other words, he left both businesses to Xiao Yunying.

Unable to argue with him, Xiao Yunying readily accepted.

Fortunately, Chen Yuanyao stayed in Donglin City after marrying Wenren Jiajin. Xiao Yunying gave her half of Huiweilou's shares and a recipe book as a dowry, and signed a new agreement. From now on, she would only deliver vegetables and would no longer receive dividends as the owner.

She also used the proceeds from the Jinxiu Pavilion as part of her dowry, and along with a book of various flower patterns she had drawn, she transferred them all to Cheng Yue and Liu Dalei when they got married.

This kind of collaborative entrepreneurship works in the short term, but in the long run, when it involves their descendants, there will be more troubles. Everyone knows this, so they agreed without much discussion.

After all the businesses were settled, five-year-old Luo Heng had reached an age where he could understand things. On a sunny spring morning, Xiao Yunying and Luo Sheng left a letter, and Wei Xun drove the carriage to go sightseeing together.

All the children, regardless of age, felt betrayed after receiving the news.

Their parents actually went out sightseeing on their own without taking them!

The youngest, Luo Heng, couldn't help but burst into tears.

Wan Jun also felt like crying.

The tall, strong man sat down on the ground, complaining indignantly that his master had taken Wei Xun but not him.

Why? Just because Wei Xun runs fast?

Dai Jincai, who was passing by, helped him up and offered a few words of advice.

"Brother Wan Jun, don't be angry. Young Master Luo is doing this for your own good. Don't forget, Aunt Wan is still here. Perhaps Young Master Luo just wants Brother Wan Jun to spend more time with his mother."

Wan Jun thought about it and agreed with Dai Jincai.

I should spend more time with her.

My mother is getting old and can no longer accompany me on my master's journeys around.

My master is still young; I will have plenty of time to spend with him in the future.

Having figured it out, he patted the dirt off his clothes and said, "Brother Dai is right. The master is doing this for my own good."

On the other side, in the carriage that was already traveling on the official road, Xiao Yunying was still talking to Luo Sheng about this matter.

"I wonder how the children will react when they see that letter."

Luo Sheng took out some snacks and placed them on the small table: "He must be furious. And Wan Jun is definitely complaining that I only brought Wei Xun and not him. He might even be cursing Wei Xun."

Wei Xun, who was rushing to catch the carriage outside, was speechless. His master was right; Wan Jun, that big oaf, would definitely be nagging him.

Never mind, I'll just bring him and Aunt Wan more things later. That big guy is simple-minded and easy to coax; he won't hold a grudge.

The carriage gradually disappeared into the mountains and forests, and Xiao Yunying finally began her wonderful life where she could enjoy traveling and sightseeing to her heart's content.
