After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

A few months was too short a time. Even if Xiyu was reluctant and unwilling to face it, the due date finally arrived.

The time a single fetus stays in the belly is usually longer than that of twins, and the belly size is also slightly smaller.

During these months, Xiyu did several things every day.

1. Leave enough capital for the three children;

Second, let the little snake spirit find a way to leave various portraits and store them in Yinzhen's study;

3. Leave a letter for someone close to you and put it in a brocade box, and tell Chunshi to take it out and give it to the corresponding person at the right time;

4. Try your best not to let Yinzhen notice when doing these things.

……

Because of her caution, and the fact that Yinzhen was extra favored by Kangxi this year and was busy with official duties, he really did not notice anything wrong.

However, to Xiyu's surprise, when she handed over most of the business to Jingtai, he seemed to be sensitive to her intentions.

"Little sister, even though I am your biological brother, you can't order me around like this."

Jingtai held a folding fan in his hand, leaning lazily on the chair, and then opened his eyelids nonchalantly, "You suddenly handed all these businesses to me, didn't something happen?"

Xiyu stood in front of the window with her back to him, almost showing a guilty look.

"What could have happened?"

She turned her head, a smile on her face, and gently poked her round belly with her white fingers, "That's it, it's his due date."

"By then I will have to stay in the mansion, and my health will not be as good as before. How can I have the time and energy to manage so many shops?"

"Don't you still have Dong Shuang to help you?"

Jingtai still looked suspicious.

"I'm talking about that. There are only five people around me who can take care of things. I don't feel comfortable leaving many things to other little girls."

"Xia Ying and Nanny Su usually have to take care of Honghui and Lingjiao, but Nanny Su is old, Qiuxu sometimes has to help out, Dongshuang has to take care of the palace's accounts, and Chunshi has to take care of me, so where is there any free manpower?"

Xiyu slowly moved to sit next to Jingtai, with the words "there is really no one available" clearly written on her face.

"The person I trust the most is you, Fourth Brother. If you don't help me, I really have no other options."

Originally, Jingtai was just confused and asked casually.

Now seeing her pitiful appearance, how could I continue to question her?

"I'll promise you. If my mother saw you like this, she would think I bullied you."

Jingtai put away the folding fan and tapped it lightly on Xiyu's forehead.

The force is extremely light, not much different from a mosquito bite.

Xi Yu smiled brightly and stood up. "Then it's settled. The day is just around the corner. I don't dare to stay outside for too long, so I'll go back first."

"Leaving now?"

Jingtai was a little reluctant, but he also knew the danger of a pregnant woman being outside, so he didn't dare to keep her any longer.

"Be careful on the road."

"Is everything arranged in the mansion? The midwives are carefully selected and have rich experience. Don't be afraid."

"On the day of delivery, if my brother gets the news, he will definitely find a way to accompany mother to visit you."

"If you are afraid, you can ask your mother to come to the mansion earlier."

……

Jingtai stood up to see him off, and kept talking all the way from the second floor of the restaurant to the door.

Xiyu put her hand on Chunshi's wrist and walked in front of him. She couldn't help feeling a lump in her nose and a sob in her throat.

After today's farewell, there will most likely be no chance to see each other again. She is very reluctant to let go, but she cannot tell anyone.

She tried to hold back her tears and boarded the carriage, pretending to be calm and joking, "Fourth brother's nagging is really inherited from mother."

Jingtai didn't think there was anything wrong with nagging a little more, "If my mother were here, she would definitely have more to tell me than me."

"Brother, please pay your respects to mother for me."

Xiyu turned her head to look at the curtain of the carriage window, tears in her eyes and her vision blurred.

"Fourth brother knows, you should come back soon."

Jingtai knocked on the window frame with the handle of his fan, then took out a purse from his sleeve and put it on the carriage, and whispered to the driver, "Drive steadily."

The driver responded and cracked his whip.

The carriage drove away smoothly.
