"It is said that she wants to marry Helan Minzhi." The Queen Mother still mentioned it.
Shi Ruwan was well-informed and said nonchalantly, "Why did I hear that Xiao Si's crush wasn't on Helan Minzhi, but on that girl Miao'er?"
Seeing that no one was around, the Queen Mother retorted to her, "You're crazy! Others don't know, but you do! Miao'er and Si Shuo are both your children. How could they be together?"
She didn't agree with these two people at the beginning, and now that she knows that Si Shuo's mother is Shi Ruwan, she can't agree with them being together even more!
"Alas," Shi Ruwan also confessed. It would be bad for the two children to keep it a secret. "Xiao Si is not my biological son. I am helping the old king raise his son."
The Queen Mother was surprised to hear this and asked, "You said Si Shuo is the son of the King of Simu?"
Shi Ruwan nodded: "I'm still a stepmother. I didn't give birth to a son or daughter there. The old Si family has four sons. If he wasn't the old king's biological son, he shouldn't be the regent based on his experience and age!"

"That's what I say." Shi Ruwan curled her lips. She had been keeping an eye on the developments of Fuding Kingdom over the years, and also on Shi Qingmiao. "But you have to give Miao'er an identity. The old king can compromise, but my wife can't fool around."
When she talked about "the one in my family", her face was full of happiness. The Queen Mother was relieved when she saw it. The little girl she watched grow up finally found the happiness she wanted.
"Okay, okay," the Queen Mother said with a smile, "I think you just want to give your daughter a better status."
Shi Ruwan boldly admitted: "You are right. I have been a little palace maid for so many years."
