Chapter 142 Striving



Actually, Luo Shi, the youngest daughter of Guo Luo, really likes little girls.

She didn't know why, but she was completely powerless against girls like this; her heart was filled with affection for them.

Whenever she saw a delicate and sweet little girl, her heart would pound; she was just so incredibly cute!

She even thought to herself that she would definitely have a little girl in the future, so that she could keep her company. When the little girl started to babble, she could stay with her every day and call her "Mother." Little Guo Luo Luo felt that she had no expectations.

At that moment, she was surprised to realize that she had never thought about getting married before, yet she had already planned what her daughter would be like...

It's absolutely amazing.

But the children she had met before were all her younger brothers and sisters, who were not born to her own mother and had a deep distance between them.

Those concubines, raised by their children, harbored great hostility towards her. From a young age, they were taught the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, treating her as an enemy and frequently hurling insults at her. Ironically, being children themselves, they always said things like, "Children are unintentional."

Therefore, Xiao Guoluo Luoshi had never had the opportunity to get close to them before, and did not want to cause trouble for herself.

Moreover, she felt that those children were really good at vying for attention. They would easily start fighting and bickering at the slightest disagreement. They were not only competing for their father's attention, but also for their brothers' attention.

It was truly saddening to see young children instilled with the idea that they could only be happy by vying for others' attention and affection.

This made her even more determined not to act like that again.

Anyway, the adults are so scheming and manipulative that even though the children look innocent and cute, their eyes are full of calculation.

Xiao Guoluo didn't like them, so she wasn't particularly close to them. It wasn't until she met Jingrou that she realized how thoughtful the little girl was. Her eyes were bright and big, and it really made people happy just to see her!

Moreover, seeing her nestled so sweetly and softly beside her sister, and remembering that she was also her aunt, she wanted to say hello, but she never found the opportunity.

Just now, she was warmed by Jingrou's sweet smile. The sad memories that she thought she would recall when she saw her sister, or the painful feeling of being used by her father, were greatly relieved.

And this little girl is so sensible; knowing that her older sister wanted to speak to her alone, she took her mother away.

Little Guo Luoshi didn't think this was just an accident. After all, ever since they came in, Jingrou had been sitting quietly to the side eating pastries, unlike the noisy and talkative children she had imagined!

But now he's taking the initiative to speak, and even pulled his mother away—how thoughtful of him…

She was exactly the cutest image of a little girl in her mind. How could anyone not like someone like that?

"You like Zhuzhu? You should say hello to her. Zhuzhu has a very good personality and has been your sister's source of joy since she entered the palace..." Consort Yi's expression softened. She originally wanted to meet this little niece because she felt guilty.

In addition, the two were relatives, and the Emperor had specifically instructed her on this matter, which is why she developed feelings for Jingrou.

But after spending several years together, we really developed a deep affection for each other, and he treated her almost like his own daughter!

Although she couldn't give birth to a daughter herself, having such a little niece is just like having her own daughter, isn't it?

No matter what, she's my own daughter!

Moreover, in her mind, none of the princesses in the palace were as considerate and lovely as her niece!

Consort Yi thought proudly.

Xiao Guoluo pursed her lips. She was used to being quiet and rarely made any requests. Even at banquets, she was the least noticeable person. This time, she was worried that her sister would be angry, so she tried to minimize her presence and hadn't thought about this at all.

Knowing her younger sister's personality, Consort Yi paused before speaking, "You heard what Mother said earlier. I just want to know what you think. No matter what Mother said, it's her and Father's wish, or the family's wish, but I want to know your thoughts." Consort Yi got straight to the point.

She is usually a very efficient person, even when she is with her younger sister.

She knew her younger sister was indecisive, so the only way to proceed was to act decisively and quickly find out what her sister was thinking. Only then could Consort Yi continue her duties. She felt sorry for her sister, but this feeling of sympathy was definitely not about harming her own interests.

Having spent so many years in the palace, if she were truly so selfless or compassionate, she would have been devoured by someone long ago, and how could she have achieved her current status?

Looking into his sister's sincere eyes, which held a hint of disappointment and genuine care, Xiao Guoluo felt that his sister had never left his side, even though they were separated by a great distance and several years had passed; their relationship remained strong.

When she was little, and her brothers bullied her, her older sister would stand up and scold them away, then turn around and look at her with that same look.

"I don't want to go to the palace, but I don't know where else I can go besides the palace. Father will definitely marry me off to someone. If I am rejected by my sister this time, I don't know which of Father's superiors' sons I will marry. In any case, I will not be able to escape their grasp." Xiao Guoluo lowered her head.

This is her tragedy. As long as she can't leave Shengjing, she might be controlled by her father for the rest of her life, or she might be required to have more children to solidify the marriage alliance between the two sides.

Little Guo Luo was timid and fearful, but she was very clever. She knew that her older sister was her lifeline at this time. Although she felt a little embarrassed to speak up, she still wanted to speak up and fight for herself.
