For example, we have now all seen how the letter from the family earnestly adheres to the moral code. But he was only ten years old now. Who knew what this child would do in ten or twenty years?

Grandmother and I are both people who like to prepare for the worst.

Pursing my lips, I continued to ask, "But if we were to raise these two children together now, in the future, if we really … "How about that?"

Grandmother seemed to have heard something extremely good as she stopped laughing after a long while. She stroked the exquisite tea cup in her hand and said, "I usually see you as a smart person. Why are you so confused?"

I was stunned for a moment before reacting.

Grandmother's meaning was that since they were already fighting over the property, there were only two possibilities.

The first was that the two children were evenly matched and had some exceptional skills. The second was that both of them had grown into prodigal sons, staring at each other from the tips of their toes, eagerly waiting for their families to divide up.

If one of them was to observe the fire from the other side of the river and wait until the east wind was about to overtake the west wind, he would secretly operate from behind. It would be easier for him to deal with the latter! However, I picked out one of the two that I like, secretly helping, not afraid of being unable to control the Yang family within the palm of my hand.

Grandmother's words were from the bottom of her heart.

I couldn't help but smile wryly to myself.

The premise of all of this was that I had the desire to control the Yang family and keep them in my hands.

However, my heart hopes, is a quiet and peaceful leisure time, is "chamomile fencing, leisurely see Nanshan" secluded life.

As long as I can break away from this world, I would rather sacrifice my love. No, I have never even asked for kinship.

It's a pity that in this case, I can only keep it in my heart and not my mouth.

Because once it was said, it would be treated as a fake joke, just like how Grandmother was about to reject the declaration of the mortal world.

The desire in my heart, only the river breeze, the mountain moon, the desk lamp, can know a little.

Releasing the faint regret in my heart, I still picked up my usual smiling face to socialize with my grandmother.

"Sun Daughter has been enlightened!"

I held the teacup, pursed my lips, smiled, thanked my grandmother, and pressed the button.

Grandmother had a complacent smile on her face. It was a special kind of arrogance that came from being able to guess what others were thinking about.

I secretly smiled and didn't try to refute her. I got up and said, "Aunt Chen will be arriving in the next few months. I want to go take a look. Shen Zheng will be back in a few minutes."

Grandmother showed a compassionate smile and softly said, "It's all thanks to you thinking about her. It's also good to take a look!"

Hearing this, I always felt that there was a hidden meaning behind her words, but I couldn't figure out what kind of riddle she was trying to pull, so I simply tossed it to the back of my mind.

After greeting me, I left the inner room and brought Lan Lingyun out of the hall. At that moment, I saw a letter from home bringing a servant woman by my side.

I always felt that I was not used to seeing a square style like the letter from my family.

Actually, it's because I don't want to admit it. Every time I look at him, I can't help but think that in my previous life, that man also had the air of a benevolent gentleman, ruthlessly abandoning us two.

At times, when I see the handsome scholar's face that is as straight as a carving in a book, a similar disgust secretly rises in my heart.

Was this the aftereffect of a lost love?

I nodded at him and said, "Come and see Grandmother!" He then brought the maidservant along the corridor.

The young maid's voice sounded from behind him.

"Hey!" "Our Eldest Young Master is really interesting, even after Young Miss left, he was still waiting there with his body bent."

"Shh!" "Cut the crap!"

I didn't need to turn around to think of another maid winking at her.

I sighed to myself.

It was Zhou Li's ancient teachings to respectfully send off the elders until they could no longer see their figures.

If I hadn't been selfish, who would have hated a child like this?

Because this time, she had only just noticed that there were no maidservants waiting outside. Hearing that someone had come from outside, the room seemed to be in a state of panic. It wasn't until I entered the room that I saw Lan Zhi quickly coming out to greet her with a pillow scar on her face and her hand supporting her hair.

It seems that Aunt Chen was pulled out of bed by me.

I felt bad inside, so I went up to help out Aunt Chen, who was about to greet me, and apologized, "I didn't know that Aunt was resting, so I disturbed you!"

Lady Chen still insisted on bowing to me before following me all the way to the inner room. She bitterly smiled. "Miss, what are you saying!?" Actually, it's because I've had a few sleepless nights these few days, so I was in bed crooked for a while, so I didn't fall asleep. "

It was easy for Aunt Chen to be pregnant, but she was very restless in the middle.

At first, there were some "Fetal Reincarnation Pills", which were very popular, but later, there was the incident of sandalwood playing the role of a ghost. This child's fate could be considered many mishaps in his mother's womb!

I hurriedly asked out of concern, "Aunt, what do you mean?"

Aunt Chen held her stomach, leaning on the pillow and said with half a grievance, "It's not really that bad."

What in the world is going on?

Lan Zhi brought a servant girl to serve tea, and happened to overhear our conversation. She smiled and said, "Recently, the child has been moving so much in the aunt's stomach! All the mothers said, with such strength, I'm afraid it's a brother. "

Even though Aunt Chen's face was full of fatigue, it could not conceal her happiness. She slowly stroked her belly and said, "I just don't know when old master will return."

I smiled.

To be like Aunt Chen, who relied on schemes to rise to the top and had a child in her womb, when she was about to give birth, would she miss the father of the child in her womb?

Being pregnant was the weakest period of a woman's life.

Perhaps if one knew that it was a piece of driftwood or a dried up blade of grass, they would tightly grip it in their hands, hoping that it would bring them a little bit more comfort.

I stroked Aunt Chen's belly with slight envy, comforting her with a smile, "It's exactly these two or three days. I'll definitely catch up to you."

However, there was a phrase that she held in her heart and didn't say.

I'm afraid that if he comes back, he won't be standing guard outside your delivery room worrying about you and your mother.

Without a doubt, this wasn't the time to speak so disheartenedly to Aunt Chen. I smiled, retracted my hand, and changed the subject.

"Aunt, you want a bird's nest. I think one tael per day is really little. It just so happens that the bird's nest is only worth one or two to five yuan per pack. Just send one packet to me every day!"

When Lady Chen heard my words, she smiled and thanked me. I called Lan Li over and placed a box in her hands in front of Aunt Chen. "I just came back this morning to settle this matter. I was afraid they wouldn't make it in time, so I brought them here directly. There's a fifty-year-old ginseng in this box, and a packet of ginseng notes. Auntie wants to know if you can use them, please use some of them. "

Aunt Chen answered them one by one, suddenly beaming with joy. She took my hand and placed it on her stomach.

I could feel the slight rise and fall of my skin.

He couldn't help but laugh along with her, gently patting her belly, and said: "You have to behave! Come out early and meet with big sister! "

Seeing that Aunt Chen was immersed in the joy of being a mother, I didn't say anything more. The time was about right, I still brought Lan Lingyun back to my grandmother's place.

When my grandmother saw me coming back, she asked me with a smile, "How is she?"

I hurriedly took off my outer cloak, greeted her, and replied, "Aunt's in good spirits. I only said that the child is very noisy and unable to sleep soundly."

Grandmother smiled and nodded.

I have some malicious speculations in my mind.

It was no wonder that grandma never gave birth to a child. It was likely that this was the only topic she had. She was too inexperienced, so if she hadn't taken a child from another family to raise, she was an anonymous foster daughter.

Seeing that the dishes were already on the table and everyone was starting to take their seats, before anyone else arrived, I couldn't help but feel anxious and kept looking out the window.

"That's right, I forgot to tell you. Just now, the girl in your courtyard came over to say that Jiayi is not feeling well, so she didn't come over to eat."

Grandmother lifted her eyelids, fiddled with the chopsticks in her hand, and picked up a piece of fish.

This was the meaning of starting a meal.

I had to hold back what I was about to say.

The person who came home from my courtyard was most likely Lan Xi. Thinking about her honest personality, how could she say such words like "I won't be eating here anymore" when she couldn't even produce a fart with a single blow of her stick.

It was probably because she came to talk to me but didn't find me. Instead, she let Grandmother find a loophole and told her that she didn't need him to come, but instead said that he didn't want to come.

Firstly, it seemed that I was not good enough at teaching, which was why this child was so disrespectful towards his elders. Secondly, I wanted to tell Aunt Mo that it was all due to my negligence that my family fell into such a state.

Such a clumsy tactic!

Now that Grandmother wants to take revenge on me without harming her own interests, isn't this the only way for her to deal with me?

I smiled and ignored him, focusing on my meal.

After dinner, Grandmother left everyone to drink their tea. I also used Grandmother's excuse to say that my family wasn't well, so I couldn't stop worrying. I dismissed everyone and headed back to my own courtyard.

After changing my clothes, I went to the east room and happened to catch Lan Xi feeding my family porridge. I sat down on a round stool in front of the bed and watched him eat.

After eating a few mouthfuls, he shook his head and gave up. The maidservants did not dare to force him, so they could only pack up their plates and plates and prepared to leave.

"How can you not eat?"

I looked at him coldly and pointed to the bowl. "Didn't you want to learn how to be a housekeeper as soon as possible?" You can't learn anything by lying in bed all day! "

I laughed self-deprecatingly. Now, when I am trying to persuade others, have they already reached the level of perfection?

I can even use a child's hatred for me!

Jia Yi looked at me with a face full of astonishment before he lowered his head in guilt.

It was the expression of a guilty conscience after someone had guessed his thoughts.

When Lan Lingyun saw that I said such words, she hurriedly dismissed the maidservants who were waiting for me and placed the plates and plates back in front of me.

I pointed to the rice bowl in front of Jia Yi and said, "You're already so old, do you still need a servant girl to feed you? Quickly, drink the congee yourself!"

I smiled wryly to myself. I was afraid that if I extended my hand to feed him, he wouldn't be able to eat it.

Jia Yi lowered his eyelids. Under the light, his eyeballs were covered with a film of water, making him look like he was about to cry.

After crying for a while, seeing that I was just sitting there quietly and looking at him, without any intention of comforting him or any warning signs of withdrawing my orders, Jia Yi could only sniff the air and pick up the bowl with tears in his eyes.

I swallowed my tears, snot and porridge together. Just by looking at him, I felt that the taste of this meal wasn't that great.

Lan Li, who had been standing aside, took a piece of papyrus from her sleeve and blew his nose at the sight of his tears.

I lowered my eyes, acquiescing.

Jia Yi took the paper and actually rolled it into two balls, and directly threw it out. The paper landed on the forehead of a young maid who was standing by the door, causing her to shriek in fear.

It wasn't just her, it was me.

I never thought that he would be so barbaric.

Looking at the small person sitting beside me, my eyes widened and my mouth opened and closed for a long time. I couldn't think of anything to say.

"How can a child like you …"

My words came out of my mouth one word at a time.

Before I could finish, Jiayi suddenly started to wail and twist his arms and legs, rolling back and forth on the bed.

The half-full wooden table that was originally next to the bed was stomped over by him, and the porcelain plates and bowls on it fell to the ground with a loud clanging sound.

It was only after a long time that the maidservants in the room finally reacted. They rushed over, cleared away the broken bowls and plates, and busied themselves with picking up brooms, helping the people at the tea table to squat down and pick up the broken porcelain with their hands. They wanted to go up and hold down the family members, so they scolded the maidservants who were supporting the flower and quickly moved to the side of the bed.

I hadn't seen such chaos in my room for a long time.

This pushed and shoved, said she stepped on her foot, that scolded this, said she was slow, right in front of my eyes in this square, the girl in my house, made a mess.

I gave Lan a look.

Lan Li's face was also unsightly. The Green Bandits had been imprisoned, and she was the steward's maid. Now that things had turned out like this, where was her face?

The two people from Aunt Mo's room were standing by the curtain, staring at the chaos before them.

Lan Ling yelled a few times, "Quiet!" "Stop!" But no one paid attention to her at all. It was a mess, and no one could hear her.

There was a young maid inside, holding onto the collar of another servant girl. Her mouth was wide open as she shouted at her with all her might. From time to time, a few sounds could be heard, "Mine", "How dare you", "Give it back to me".

Lan Yu grabbed the young maid and smacked her on the table. A loud bang could be heard.

Only then did everyone quieten down.

All that was left in the room were the wailing of the family members and the sobbing of the maidservant who had just been slapped in the face by Lan Ling.
