The little dark guard who travels between two lives
Chapter 12: My wife is pregnant with twins
Ji Wanran and her group had a safe journey and soon returned to the Qin residence. Qin Mingxuan had been waiting at home for a long time. When he saw his wife walking in with a smile on her face, he knew that this incense-burning trip would be smooth.
Qin Mingxuan smiled and took his fat daughter from his wife's arms and asked, "Are you tired, Nannan? Did you bother your mother?" Then he looked at Yu Shen and said, "Shen'er, are you okay?"
Thirteen was unhappy: "What is Daddy talking about? Nannan has always been very well behaved and she also followed the rules when burning incense. If you don't believe me, ask Brother Shen..."
She pointed at Yu Shen, who bowed his head and saluted Qin Mingxuan: "Thank you for your concern, Teacher. Shen'er is doing well. Master's wife is taking good care of him."
He never mentioned whether Thirteen was well behaved or not. Thirteen sighed, knowing that he would not speak well of her. She then pointed to Liu Niang who was following her and said, "Ask the nanny. Nannan is the best behaved."
Liu Niang responded immediately: "Yes, yes, the young lady is very well behaved. The master also likes the young lady and the young master very much, and even personally recited scriptures and prayed for the young lady and the young master!"
Qin Mingxuan knew that Master Guangji would not easily chant sutras and pray for people. If he had not used the banner of his deceased father, he would not have been able to invite Master Guangji. Hearing what Liu Niang said, he raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, looked at Shisan and Yu Shen and said with a smile: "Oh, it really is a destined person!"
Thirteen immediately followed up: "Of course, the master also said that Nannan is a lovely baby!" As he said this, he shook his big head proudly, and the silver bells tied on his hair jingled.
Yu Shen immediately retorted: "How could I praise you? I didn't even hear it." He just didn't want to see this fat girl being so smug and conceited in front of the teacher and his wife.
Thirteen was unhappy: "Brother Shen, I'm not talking nonsense, the master did say that, but..." Thirteen wanted to say that the master said that when Brother Shen fell asleep, but if he said that, Yu Shen would definitely be angry with him for exposing him and reporting him.
Thirteen had no choice but to lower his head in grievance: "You just didn't hear it, but the master said it anyway." Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran looked at the two villains bickering and both laughed.
"Okay, okay, Nannan and Shen'er are both very well behaved. We will add more dishes tonight to reward you two for your good behavior." Ji Wanran ordered Liu Niang to arrange the food. Shisan immediately shouted at Liu Niang, "Nanny, add some meat!" The vegetarian meal they had in the temple at noon would be incomplete without meat.
Liu Niang looked at her young lady's chubby face, held back her laughter, and replied: "Okay, Nanny will ask the cook to give the young lady some more meat and vegetables to nourish her!" Thirteen was satisfied: "Yes, it's still Liu Niang who loves her daughter and knows that she needs nourishment."
Thirteen kept telling the wet nurse what he wanted to eat. When the wet nurse smiled and responded that she was going to the back kitchen, he turned around and found that his father and mother, whom he hadn't seen for a day, were supporting each other and walking towards the front hall. The two of them lowered their heads and whispered to each other. Ji Wanran was smiling, and Qin Mingxuan was looking at his wife with eyes full of affection.
Tsk tsk, it's really shameful to watch! So embarrassing! Thirteen covered his eyes with his chubby hands, resigned himself to his fate and followed his mother and father.
Yu Shen beside her looked at her with contempt: "Hmph, fat girl still wants to eat meat, look how fat you have become, ugly girl!" After saying that, he strode over and left Shisan behind.
Oh, I'm so angry. He said I was ugly! He also said I was fat! As a cute fairy, I really can't stand it! Shisan didn't expect that Yu Shen was so hateful when he was young, but he didn't have the courage to scold him. He was so angry that he just stared blankly at the back.
Yu Shen turned his head to look at her, and seeing the little fat girl jumping up and down in anger, he couldn't help but smile, "Well, the fat girl is unhappy, then I am happy." Yu Shen walked briskly into the dining room.
The cook really added a lot of hard dishes to the dinner, and Thirteen, who loves meat, ate it happily. Although the food in the Dark Guard Camp in the previous life was not bad, meat was not allowed to be eaten casually.
When she entered the Yu residence to replace Madam Xinhe, she thought she could finally eat delicious food. But she didn't know that both Yu Shen and Madam Xinhe liked vegetarian food. As a substitute secret guard, she had no right to ask for meat dishes. She could only grit her teeth and follow Yu Shen to eat vegetarian food.
Thinking of this, Thirteen looked at Yu Shen fiercely: "He is a prime minister, but he asked me, a secret guard, to block the swords and arrows for his wife, but he didn't even let me eat the meat properly."
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Thirteen angrily stuffed a piece of braised pork into his mouth and chewed it with gritted teeth, as if this could help him vent his anger.
Qin Mingxuan and his wife watched their fat daughter eat meat with gnashing teeth, and they couldn't help but laugh: "Nannan, I just had a vegetarian meal in the temple, why do you eat meat so hard!"
Yu Shen had already noticed that Thirteen was secretly looking at him, and he could also feel that this little girl was looking at him chewing the meat as if she was biting herself. She was probably very angry just now, and was taking out her anger on the braised pork.
Yu Shen ignored Shisan and ate his own food, obviously quite happy. The little girl was unhappy, so he was happy.
Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran saw that the two children were secretly sulking, and couldn't help but laugh. But they were happy in their hearts, especially when they saw that Yu Shen finally showed some childish behavior, they were very relieved.
In the eyes of Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran, Yu Shen was good in every way. He was sensible and polite, and he was also very hardworking in his studies. However, from the perspective of an eight-year-old, Yu Shen was too mature and stable. He had a stern face all day long, and was silent and quiet, lacking the childishness and liveliness that a child should have.
Thinking of the child's situation, Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran looked at each other and sighed secretly. Regarding Yu Shen's attitude, the couple had persuaded Yu Huaian many times to take care of Yu Shen and pay more attention to the child. But every time Yu Huaian talked about Yu Shen, his eyes were complicated and he remained silent.
Perhaps it was the right choice to let Shen'er come to the Qin Mansion. With her daughter's company, Shen'er would gradually become happier. Thinking of this, Ji Wanran felt relieved and passed another piece of meat to her fat daughter: "Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you, be careful not to choke."
My beautiful mother is still the best. She gives me meat to eat. Thirteen had a mouthful of oil and didn't bother to talk. He nodded to his mother repeatedly and stuffed the piece of meat into his mouth in one gulp.
Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran both laughed at their daughter's little appearance. Ever since their daughter woke up from her coma, the mansion was filled with laughter again.
Yu Shen looked at the happy family of three and felt envious. If possible, he really wanted to stay at his teacher and his wife's home forever. This warm and happy scene had never happened in his own home.
Looking at the little girl's greedy appearance with grease in her mouth, Yu Shen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and the food in his mouth seemed to taste more fragrant.
Sure enough, Thirteen, who had been clamoring to eat meat to replenish his body, still ate too much. After washing up at night, he lay on his small bed, feeling that his stomach was still bloated and uncomfortable. Thirteen had no choice but to pull Liu Niang to sit by the bed and help him rub his stomach.
Seeing Shisan's uncomfortable look, Liu Niang felt both distressed and amused: "It's all my fault. I added too much meat and vegetables. Miss can't eat so much next time." Shisan hurriedly comforted Liu Niang: "Don't blame the wet nurse. It's Shisan who is too greedy. But...but Shisan can't control himself when he sees meat."
Hearing the little girl's honest words, Liu Niang couldn't help laughing: "Okay, then next time I will remind you, okay?" Thirteen nodded honestly: "Yes, next time I will eat less when I hear your reminder."
Hearing her promise, the wet nurse just smiled and said nothing. She had heard such promises too many times and she ate every time.
Thirteen looked at the gentle wet nurse and recalled what the secret guard said when he returned to the mourning hall. He didn't know why he and the wet nurse ended up in that place. The wet nurse who had lost her memory still worked hard to raise him for five years, and finally died to protect him. He felt sour in his heart.
She stood up and hugged the nanny with her chubby hands, "I knew that the nanny was the best to me." Liu Niang was hugged by the young lady, listening to the young lady's baby voice, and felt very comfortable in her heart. Her young lady was really a kind and lovely fairy!
Thirteen finally felt better in his stomach and was about to go to bed. Suddenly, he remembered something important. He remembered that when he first arrived at the Qin Mansion, he heard his mother say that she was pregnant with twins, but one died at birth. What was going on? Was it important information about himself and Madam Xinhe?
She quickly grabbed Liu Niang who was about to cover her with a blanket and said, "Nanny, did Xin'er have a sister who didn't survive?"
Liu Niang was stunned. She looked at Thirteen who was full of curiosity and sighed, "Yes, it's a pity that the child died at birth. If it weren't for you, the lady would be heartbroken."
Thirteen sat up straight, patted the bed beside him, and asked the nurse to sit down: "Nanny, can you tell Xin'er what's going on?"
The nurse smiled and said, "It happened several years ago. Why are you so worried about it? Go to sleep." Thirteen refused and hugged the nurse's arm and started to act like a spoiled child again, "Nanny, tell me about it. Now that I know about it, I won't mention my deceased sister in front of mother and make her sad."
Liu Niang thought for a moment, then sat down beside the bed, tucked Thirteen into the bed, and tucked the quilt carefully for her. She sighed softly, "Okay, Miss, lie down. Nanny will tell you about what happened back then. Remember not to mention it in front of Madam. This is a hurdle in Madam's heart that she has been unable to get over. Madam has always been sad and distressed, even though it has been many years since this happened."
Thirteen shrank into the quilt, revealing a pair of big, twinkling eyes, and waited eagerly for Liu Niang to continue.
Liu Niang looked at Thirteen's cute appearance. If the accident had not happened that year, the child would have been as lovable as the young lady if he had survived.
Liu Niang sorted out her thoughts and began to recount the accident that happened that year: "When the Madam was about to give birth, it happened that the Lord was sent out of the capital by the Emperor to handle an important matter, and he promised to return to the capital when the Madam gave birth."
"Madam was worried about the master and the unborn child, so she went to the temple to burn incense. Unexpectedly, on the way back to Beijing, the carriage suddenly got startled. Madam, who was due in two months, got frightened and had a miscarriage. She could only be settled in a small mountain village nearby. Fortunately, she found a doctor to deliver the baby."
"But even with the doctor, the first baby was born prematurely and died. Fortunately, you survived, otherwise the lady would have died along with you two children."
Thirteen listened to the nurse's heavy tone and could imagine how sad and upset her mother must have been when she heard that her child had died. She blinked her big eyes and felt depressed, sad for her mother and also sad for her dead sister.
The nurse looked at Thirteen and comforted her: "Don't be sad, young lady. It's been many years since the incident. It's comforting for Madam to see that you have grown so well."
The nurse seemed to remember something and continued, "In fact, it was thanks to Miss Su that she helped Madam find the doctor from the city. Just imagine, in such a remote mountain village, if Madam was startled and her fetus was disturbed, and she was pregnant with twins, the situation would be very dangerous."
"It just so happened that Miss Su found an old doctor from the city who came to the village to collect herbs. Because it was too late, the old doctor rested in the village. Fortunately, there was a doctor from the city. If not, I'm afraid you three mothers would be in danger."
In fact, Miss Su and Madam used to be very good friends, as close as sisters, but Miss Su is becoming more and more cunning... Alas!"
The nurse looked at Thirteen. Since this matter concerned the Madam and the adults, it was not appropriate to say anything in front of the child. She patted Thirteen gently and said, "Okay, Miss, go to sleep quickly."
I didn't think anything of it when I heard the nanny talking about what happened back then, but later when I heard her mention that Su Peiyun was also there, I felt something was wrong. It's not that I have any prejudice against Su Peiyun, I just think this woman is very strange. What on earth did she do in the current situation?
Although he was only a chubby three-year-old kid now, the secret guard training he received in his previous life was still there. This matter was full of coincidences, which was too abnormal. He remembered what the adults taught him in the secret guard camp: "When all kinds of coincidences come together, it must be deliberate."
Although the relationship between his mother and Su Peiyun was still very good at that time, they were so close that they went to burn incense together and ran into a carriage that was startled, and it was the doctor that Su Peiyun had found. Thirteen felt that something was wrong.
If a mother loves her child so much, why would she have to go out to burn incense when the time of delivery is so close? A cautious mother would not be so rash as to take risks with her unborn child.
Daddy has always loved his wife. Today, when mom went out to burn incense, daddy specially arranged guards. Even if daddy went out on business in the past, he would have made sure that everything in the mansion was properly arranged. He must have arranged guards for mom, and the person who drove the carriage for mom must have been a reliable person.
Even so, it still startled the carriage, which was a bit strange. Moreover, Su Peiyun was also involved at this time. How could a bad woman who coveted Daddy treat Mom sincerely?
No, there must be something wrong here.
