"Sister-in-law, I'm a little scared. Is it really possible for me to manage such an important position as the Infrastructure Department? I'm just a stay-at-home woman, and I'm afraid I won't do a good job."

Song Qingci is currently staying home to rest and prepare for childbirth, as ordered by imperial decree, and is quite leisurely.

Seeing Shan Xi's deep concern, she patiently said, "Things are all done by people. It doesn't distinguish between men and women, only between capable and incapable people. It also distinguishes between those who want to do it and those who don't. Which one are you?"

"me……"

Previously, Shan Xi was a traditional young lady confined to her chambers. However, since Song Qingci entered the household, she has been subtly changed quite a bit.

She admired and longed to be a woman like Song Qingci from the bottom of her heart.

Do whatever you want without having to worry about anyone else's opinion.

Even her husband couldn't help her.

In other words, her heart had long since wandered.

She can never go back to being the well-behaved young woman she once was.

Seeing that she couldn't speak, Song Qingci continued, "You've already managed this huge general's mansion very well. You've even managed the shops on Liuhua Street quite well. The Infrastructure Department is actually just a larger, more complex place. At your current pace, if you put in more effort, it's not as difficult as you imagine."

“You must understand, the Infrastructure Department may seem like just a place that manages the flow of materials and approves projects. But if someone wants to line their own pockets, they can certainly pull off some elaborate schemes. Therefore, the head of the department must be someone I trust. Your role is not only to help me protect this place, but also for the sake of all the people under heaven who need the Infrastructure Department. You are very important.”

As Song Qingci spoke the last few words, her gaze remained firm as she looked at Shan Xi. In that instant, her value increased.

"I understand! I will definitely do my best!" Shan Xi nodded heavily.

A tremendous sense of social responsibility surged within him in an instant. Song Qingci looked on with satisfaction.

Lou Shi was still somewhat dazed when her daughter was suddenly granted an official position.

I wasn't really willing to accept it at first.

When a woman becomes an official, she inevitably has to go out and show her face in public.

It is an obstacle to her marriage.

But when I think of my daughter-in-law, that feeling fades considerably.

Those who are capable should do more work.

Aci is so capable, and Xi'er is no less capable.

Marriage is also preordained by fate, and it seems that nothing they say matters.

However, looking at the pair of cards and the ledger in her hand, she felt a little lost.

The power of housekeeping has come full circle and returned to her hands.

The daughter wants to become an official, the daughter-in-law needs to take care of her pregnancy, and the mother is getting old. After considering all the options, she is the only one left.

Oh well. At most, she'll be exhausted for a few more months. Once the baby is born, she can focus on taking care of the child, and then she can hand over the housekeeping duties again.

This time, however, she needs to learn a lot from her daughter and daughter-in-law, and she absolutely cannot let those things that happened before happen again.

When Song Qingci was six months pregnant, Xiao Wenye finally appeared at the general's mansion.

"I thought something had happened to you outside~" Song Qingci was speechless, having searched for him for so long. In the end, he only showed up now.

If it drags on any longer, she'll be about to give birth.

Xiao Wenye didn't think anything of it, but he still explained, "I went to find medicinal herbs. I waited for more than two months for the Moon Shadow Sandalwood to bloom. As soon as I got them, I came here immediately."

“But your belly…” Xiao Wenye looked it up and down several times, “How come it’s so big?”

"Because they are twins." She already knew this when she had an ultrasound done in the space.

She was not only carrying twins, but also, more unusually, a boy and a girl.
