Two children...
Rong Xi is pregnant again. This time, Xiao Qingze is very sure that the child is his because he starts vomiting again.
"Xi'er...yue..."
Jiang Rongxi sometimes wondered who the pregnant woman was and why Xiao Qingze was vomiting so violently.
The morning sickness lasted for more than five months before it got better.
This time, Rong Xi took a multiple-birth pill, two boys and one girl.
Old Madam Xiao looked at these children with tears in her eyes. Ever since Xiao Qingze fell, the mansion had been dead silent, and she thought that this was how it would be in her life.
She had also made up her mind that she would take care of Xiao Qingze's funeral before she died, and the direct line of the Wuding Marquis's Mansion would end here.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the family had many children and grandchildren, and there was nothing to worry about even if she passed away.
When Old Madam Xiao passed away, the three younger ones were already eight years old. The children were usually very attached to her, and even Rong Xi couldn't help crying.
When the children grew up a little, Xiao Qingze was assigned to garrison at the border. He was worried about leaving Rong Xi and the children in Kyoto, so he took them there too.
Before leaving, Rong Xi gave Tang Wan's indenture contract to her. Now she looks haggard and looks like she is a generation younger than Rong Xi when she stands next to him.
It was only now that Rong Xi understood why Xiao Qingze became a great general, and he also had a different understanding of the general.
A general can be high-spirited and upright, or he can be scheming and manipulating people's hearts, but they all protect the land in their own way.
Xiao Qingze passed away peacefully. Even though he was over seventy years old, he still liked to nestle in Rong Xi's arms and act obedient and weak.
Rong Xi felt sour in his heart when he saw Xiao Qingze coughing constantly and unable to speak. The poison he had contracted when he was young had damaged his foundation, and he had to rely on medicine to survive in the last few years of his life.
It was thanks to Rong Xi's careful care that he was able to survive until now.
"Xi'er, I really can't bear to leave you."
Rong Xi patted his back gently as she did every time before, "Don't be afraid, my husband. I will be here to accompany you soon."
"Ahem, ahem, Xier."
Xiao Qingze's hand slowly dropped, and Rong Xi also shed tears. After instructing the children to bury them together, she called the system.
"System, let's go."
