In the vast continent, in the An Mansion of the prominent family in Xinghu City.
"Someone, someone, my wife is about to give birth."
As the shout broke the darkness, the An Mansion suddenly became busy. Some people shouted to go and report to the master, and some shouted to find the midwife to boil hot water.
After a while, the masters of the An family had gathered in Lianheyuan of the An family. An Yu, the eldest son of the An family, was walking back and forth anxiously outside the door. When he saw An Changcheng, the head of the An family, he became even more irritated.
"Stop walking around, it makes me annoyed!" The head of the An family said this to An Yu in a bad temper.
"Dad, I'm worried too. It sounds like giving birth to a child was very painful for Mom."
"I'm worried too. Don't hang around in front of me. Your mother had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to you. I don't know how she is doing now..." An Changcheng said a little depressed.
An Ran felt increasingly uncomfortable sleeping. Why was she so sticky and pressed against something? A group of people were buzzing around her, and she didn't know what was going on. But she'd been so excited during the day and felt so sleepy... Not wanting to move, she just followed the pressure of the others.
More than an hour passed and the surroundings became increasingly noisy. Anran felt that she could not stand it anymore and was ready to open her eyes to see who was disturbing her sleep.
At this moment, a surge of force came and An Ran felt as if she had slipped out.
Suddenly, a woman's voice was heard shouting in great surprise: "It's born, it's born, it's a daughter."
When An Changcheng heard this outside the door, he could no longer hold back and rushed into the room. He held his wife He Yun's hand and said, "Madam, you have worked hard."
He Yun smiled and said, "Let me see our child."
The midwife brought the child in and said as she walked in, "Master, Madam, this child is a blessed one. Look at this little face. It's so pretty. He will definitely be a great beauty like you in the future." After that, she placed the child in He Yun's arms.
He Yun was playing with the child, while An Ran was still in a daze. She didn't know how she had become a child. Was she dreaming? Just then, He Yun pinched her cheek, and An Ran cried out. Did she know she wasn't dreaming?
Could it be that I traveled through time?
The more Anran thought about it, the sadder she became. She missed her grandparents, her parents, her brothers, sisters, uncles, and so she burst into tears.
He Yun saw the child crying and hurriedly comforted him. Suddenly, he found a small ring with a blue glow coming out of the child's mouth. He exclaimed, "Master, come and see."
An Changcheng also saw what the child spat out of his mouth. He took it out and took a look. It turned out to be a ring. He laughed in surprise and said, "Great, great, this ring looks like a treasure. My precious daughter was born with treasures. This is the first one in Xinghu City. Madam, you have given me a good child."
He Yun smiled softly and said, "This is our child. The master hasn't given him a name yet..."
An Changcheng took the child from He Yun's arms and said, "From the beginning of pregnancy, we hoped that he would be a daughter. An Yu also wanted a sister. So, Ran Ye, from now on, her name will be An Ran!"
He Yun teased the child and said, "What a nice name! From now on, your name will be Anran, Ranran, okay?"
At this moment, An Yu came into the room and saw his parents teasing the child. He hurried over and said, "Mom, is this your sister?"
He Yun smiled and said, "You are always thinking about your sister. Come and see your sister." An Yu walked forward, looked at his sister, held her little fist and said, "Sister, I will protect you."
An Changcheng took out the ring and said, "Ranran was born with this ring. I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse. Let's keep it secret for now. Let's just say we found it while traveling. I'm worried that if we say it's natural, it will bring endless troubles to both the ring and Ranran."
As he said that, he put the ring on a rope and put it on An Ran's neck. Strangely enough, the ring disappeared as soon as it touched An Ran's skin. An Changcheng was shocked. He and He Yun checked An Ran's body together and found a ring-like mark on An Ran's index finger, but the color was so light that it was basically unrecognizable.
As An Ran listened to their conversation, she began to understand that her journey through time must be related to the Nine Transformations Exquisite Ring. She thought, "I'll eventually figure it out."
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
For the past month, she'd spent nothing but eating and sleeping. All she knew was that the An family was a prominent and prestigious clan in Xinghu City, that her father was currently the head of the family, and that the rest of the clan members didn't live in the An residence. She was the eldest daughter of the An family, had an older brother, and that her parents had a deep bond. Her father hadn't taken a concubine.
On this day, Anran was one month old. In this world, all children must be baptized when they are one month old, which is similar to the third day baptism.
The An Mansion was decorated with lights and lanterns. An Changcheng was so happy to have a daughter that he specially invited guests and friends to attend the baptism of his precious daughter.
After lunch, An Ran was carried out and a baptism ceremony was held in Lianheyuan.
Lianheyuan is one of the largest courtyards in the An Mansion. There is a small lotus pond in the courtyard, planted with lotus flowers of various colors, including pink and white. There are several plum trees planted around the wall, and various flowers and plants are planted in the surrounding flower beds. The whole courtyard is surrounded by green trees and flowers, and looks particularly quiet and peaceful.
At this time, a large jade basin was placed in the open space in the center of the yard. The basin was filled with water shining with colorful light, waiting for Anran to arrive and be baptized in this jade basin.
An Ran was carried out by He Yun. Seeing that the elders of the clan, her husband, and her eldest son were all waiting to baptize their child, she couldn't help but smile.
