C101

"Aunt!" "The young miss is here." Mama Chen opened the curtain for me.

It's been a long time since I've been here, but the side yard is a little different from when I lived there. The lacquer bed I used to live in has become the stepping bed of the present day, and the green bamboo curtain I hung has also become the white curtain of the cranes.

Today, the furnishings inside the house are even more magnificent than when I lived here, but they are full of the meaning of sending your son to the village, which inevitably makes people feel depressed.

"You're here!" Aunt Chen was wearing a pink stone with a crimson peony pattern on her forehead. The back of her head was loosely tied with a piece of plaster on each side, making her look exceptionally mischievous.

"All of you can leave now!" Aunt Chen came up and took my hand, and turned to the servants in the room.

There was no lack of people that her mother and grandmother had openly and secretly sent over to look at her, but they didn't expect that they all saluted and left after hearing her words.

It seems like Lady Chen is being held tightly, otherwise she wouldn't have been so confident in letting me and her be alone.

"Aunt, what do you want to say to me?" I wanted to find a place to sit down, but Lady Chen held my hand tightly.

"Miss, come here and speak!"

Lady Chen quickly dragged me behind the screen. She had a lot of strength and walked very fast. She didn't seem like someone who was pregnant at all.

"Miss, I have something to ask of you." As soon as I entered the screen, Aunt Chen grabbed my hand and pressed it against mine.

"Please speak, Aunt." She stood very close to me with her hands like this, and her breath on my face made me feel very uncomfortable.

I pulled her hand away and stood two steps away from her. Aunt Chen finally realized her impoliteness, so she hung her hand.

Why would Aunt Chen, who always maintained a distance from me, suddenly come looking for me so urgently?

I was waiting for Aunt Chen, but she lowered her head, blushing, as if she were in no hurry to say what was in her mind. I thought to myself that since my grandmother disagreed with this matter, it was definitely not a good thing. She had already been rejected by me in this case. The more time I spend with her today, the more suspicious I'll be.

"Since Aunt has not decided yet, I will come and bother you another day!" A smile appeared on my face. I flicked my sleeve and prepared to leave.

When Aunt Chen saw me about to leave, she panicked a little and stretched out a pair of pure hands to catch me, but I avoided them without leaving a trace.

"Young mistress, I'll tell you right away!" Aunt Chen became more and more anxious, frantically pulling me closer.

Although I was mentally mature, my body was still only that of an eleven-year-old girl, pulled along by a nineteen year old adult and a pregnant woman. I didn't dare to struggle free, so I could only let her pull me.

After thinking for a while, Aunt Chen finally opened her mouth. She caressed her stomach and slowly said, "Miss, do you think that this baby is male or female?"

As far as I was concerned, it didn't matter whether it was a man or a woman. My father already had three sons, so it wasn't empty. Grandma didn't know before, but she was very nervous about the one in Aunt Chen's stomach. Ever since he found out about his father's proficient in raising his concubines, he had only given a little bit of care to his aunt Chen.

I'm not an unmarried little girl. I'll rub my belly and blush and say it's all my children, and I'll like it." Although Aunt Chen was her father's concubine after her marriage, there was no direct son in the family, and even her mother didn't know about the affairs of the outer chamber. Aunt Chen naturally had no way of knowing about the affairs of the outer chamber, and according to Aunt Chen's circumstances, as long as she gave birth to a man, she would definitely become the next successor of the family, regardless of whether she gave birth to a man or a woman, she would never be able to surpass her brother. If Aunt Chen wanted to have a boy, she really didn't need to think about it.

He asked me such obvious questions, but he just wanted to go on with it. It's fine to use these scams to deceive others, but to use these scams to tease me really makes me at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"It's still early for Aunt's month. It's not known for men and women." You know how to play tricks, don't tell me that I don't know how to play tricks?

Aunt Chen was unwilling to give up, "Miss, do you want this servant to be a man or a woman?" A pair of bare hands lightly caressed his abdomen, and a look of deep sorrow and affection appeared on his face. His eyes were as bright as the stars, and he had a pitiful look when I saw him. Unfortunately, I'm not his father.

"No matter if it is a man or a woman, they are both my younger brother and sister. I will definitely love them the same way." I gently smiled, vividly displaying the posture that all young misses should have.

"Don't you want me to be a boy?" Aunt Chen didn't expect me to play Tai Ji with her, so she was a little taken aback.

Why should I want her to be a male? Suddenly, I felt that I couldn't figure out what Aunt Chen was thinking.

After hearing that, I couldn't help but giggle. "Why do I want to fill in a little brother?" Thinking about how I still have three younger brothers that I have never met, I feel a headache coming on.

When Aunt Chen saw that I had asked, her expression became a bit more at ease. She slowly said, "Miss, you are the direct descendent of our family. When you get married in the future, you will naturally want us to have a brother to help you, but your status can't be too high. Isn't it good for you to be a bastard?"

Aunt Chen rubbed her belly and continued, "I once saw a husband who used silver coins to ask his wife. He said that his wife had made a mistake that year and was afraid that she would never have a child again. If I was a daughter in this life, the old master might accept more newbies. I was in the young lady's hands, but that might not be the case for the newbie who just entered the door. "

I didn't think that Aunt Chen had such a plan. She actually wanted to let her child take charge of the Yang family's business, and also had the ability to ask about her mother's condition. I thought she was just a clever, pretty flower vase, but I didn't expect her to have a few tricks up her sleeve. But, I'm afraid her plan is not going to work. I don't have the intention to control the Yang family single-handedly, and I have no interest in supporting her child to be the head of the Yang family.

Suddenly I felt ridiculous. If his mother knew about the existence of the outer chamber and the three children, she would be shocked and furious. Even if Aunt Chen found out, she didn't know what kind of situation it would be.

"What does it matter to me, a daughter who is going to be married off, to meddle in the affairs of my father's house?" Aunt Chen was wearing a pink jacket with a hundred pieces of silk on it. The side room didn't allow her to wear red, which made her look quite cute. I carefully looked at her clothes and couldn't help but exclaim in my heart, This outfit is really exquisite! Although my grandmother did not say, the home can add import, but probably the heart still attached great importance.

A strange expression crossed Aunt Chen's face, and I smiled at her frankly.

I knew what she was thinking. I was the one who had planned her entry into my father's room, and it wasn't a contradiction that I said I couldn't interfere with my father's business.

I raised my eyebrows and grinned at her.

That's what I said. Can you still confront your father that I sent you to his bed?

Lady Chen's face showed some anger, but she still held onto my wrist tightly and didn't let me leave.

I raised my hand and Aunt Chen pulled me closer.

I sighed helplessly. "If Aunt has something to say, just say it. If I go in circles like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to get an idea even if it gets dark!"

It would do me no good to drag it on, but it would do her no harm. If anything happens to her, I'll take responsibility for her for nothing.

Aunt Chen bit her lips and finally spoke out her thoughts. "Miss, have you heard of the Reincarnation Pill?"

I was startled!

"Reincarnation Pill, of course I've heard of it before!" I've heard of it before, but I almost used it.

One night, I was waiting for Xue Lang to come back for dinner. Lu Ping hurriedly came in and told me that Xue Lang had been called back to the Xue Residence by Lady Xue. My heart was beating fast, and I quickly told my mother to find out what was the matter.

It had to be known that at that time, Xue Lang and his family were already in an uproar, so it wasn't a big matter. Xue Lang would never return.

My mother came back with red eyes and told me that Lady Xue had told me about a marriage. If Xue Lang refused, she would be hanged in the Xue family ancestral hall.

My heart is like tea in hot water, floating, without roots.

Xue Lang didn't come back until midnight. I got up from the bed and wanted to talk to him, but all I got was a heavy bed and half a night of snoring.

The next day, before the sun rose, Xue Lang quietly got up from his bed. He put on his clothes and went to the yamen.

I can no longer sleep, sitting in front of the mirror silently tears, Lusheng looked at my appearance of heartache, so told me about the perinatal pills.

It was said that this pill could transform females into males, but not females.

At that time, I thought that if I gave birth to my eldest grandson, the Xue Clan would accept me.

It cost five thousand silver taels to buy three pills, which I put on my makeup table in a small rosewood box.

I used to hear from my mothers that the drugs were so damaging to the fetus that you had typhoid fever during pregnancy and could not use it. Only by holding on to the past could you guarantee the health of the fetus in your womb.

If I took the pill and thought about it, it might damage the health of the baby if it was only a medicine for typhoid fever. Would such a medicine, now, transgender and injure my child at the same time?

After hesitating for three days, I still didn't use that pill.

[I am afraid. It doesn't matter if I was born a dead child. If I am physically disabled or delirious, how will I live my entire life?]

Even if the one I gave birth to is a daughter, the worst case is if Xue Lang abandons us, then I will raise my daughter by myself and bring her a son-in-law. It isn't bad for her to firmly hold her own life in her hands!

After making this decision, my heart felt much more at ease. I hid the pill deep within my make-up platform. Every day, I would only feel reassured and nurture my baby.

Afterwards, the Xue Manor somehow stopped forcing Xuelang to marry, and I had also forgotten about the matter of the Reincarnation Pill.

Never would I have thought that the three words "Reincarnation Pill" would appear in my ears again today. The one holding her is a girl that wants to rely on the young man to stabilize her position.

I muttered to myself, "I've heard a bit about it. How much does Aunt know?"

When Aunt Chen heard that I knew about the pill, her face lit up and her tone relaxed a lot. "I heard that this pill can reverse the gender of the fetus. Many women in the capital gave birth to boys after taking this pill."

I secretly rejoiced in my heart. It was fortunate that she didn't know that this medicine was meant for males instead of females, so she left some leeway for me to persuade her.

I feel that there must be a reason why this medicine is only circulated in the dark and not used by proper teachers.

If Aunt Chen wanted to use this medicine, I would definitely stop her. The child is innocent after all.

Remembering the pure eyes of my premature child in my dream, my heart seemed to melt within it.

I made up my mind, and my voice was firmer.

"What is Aunt's intention in bringing this up?"
