The concubine is a man, and the illegitimate son of a divine physician has a spatial ability.

Aunt Li had just given birth and had taken a fertility-inhibiting soup, causing her to bleed. She was extremely weak at the moment and murmured, "Yes, it's the Sixth Miss. Only in this way can we save the Sixth Miss's life and allow her to live."

"But Granny Qi, I really want to hold that child! After all, he's a piece of my own flesh and blood. I only saw him from afar, and then he was taken away. My heart aches for him!"

Granny Qi said, "Madam, if I may be so blunt, you are now the master's favorite. He almost always spends the night in your room, and only visits the madam's room occasionally. What do you think the madam will think? What do you think the other concubines will think?"

Now that you've given birth to the Sixth Miss, Madam must be feeling threatened. Actually, Madam is quite kind; if this were any other family's inner quarters, you and the Sixth Miss would have died long ago.

Although Madam Renci disapproved of the various ways the concubines behaved, she treated the daughters born of concubines extremely well. Look at the third and fifth daughters born to Concubine Feng; their food, clothing, and daily necessities are comparable to those of the second daughter, who was born of the principal wife! The sixth daughter will certainly not be any worse off in the future.

Aunt, what you need to do now is take good care of your health, serve the master and mistress well, and try to keep a low profile. When the sixth daughter becomes successful in the future, he will definitely not forget you, as she is his birth mother.

It's possible that you'll be able to enter the ancestral hall in the future and enjoy the worship of the Yin family descendants! Auntie, we have a long future ahead of us. Don't do something reckless and end up with nothing, and the master even dislikes you.

No matter what, we are still better off than Aunt Wang in Yizhu Courtyard. Aunt Wang is old and faded, and now she has no children to rely on. Just thinking about her future makes her pitiful!

As Granny Qi spoke, she sighed. Hearing Granny Qi's words, Aunt Li's heart tightened involuntarily, and she said weakly, "Yes, for the sake of Sixth Miss, I must serve Master and Madam well. I can't be like before. From now on, I must keep a low profile."

"As long as I serve Madam well, she will treat Sixth Miss much better."

Granny Qi pulled the brocade quilt around Aunt Li and said, "It's best if you think this way, Aunt. You should rest well and take care of yourself. Master has been away on the Yellow River for a month to manage the floods, and he should be back soon."

When Aunt Li thought of her husband, her face flushed. Her husband was only thirty years old and was about to be promoted to the position of Second Grand Secretary. If he succeeded in becoming the Second Grand Secretary, he would be the youngest Second Grand Secretary in the Great Sheng Dynasty.

In addition, her husband was strong and vigorous, and he would make her ecstatic in bed, begging for mercy. Who wouldn't like such a young and promising hero? As a courtesan from a brothel, she was already incredibly lucky to become the master's concubine.

As she was thinking, Aunt Li fell asleep, and Granny Qi lowered the pink gauze curtains on both sides of the bed.

She whispered to Xiaoqing beside her, "Xiaoqing, you'll be keeping watch tonight. Your aunt just gave birth, so please take good care of her."

Xiaoqing quickly replied, "Yes, Granny Qi."

After Granny Qi left, Xiaoqing blew out all the oil lamps in the room, leaving only one on for convenience when getting up at night. There was a small bed next to Aunt Li's bed, so Xiaoqing slept on it to keep watch.

Inside the Yimei Courtyard, Madam Zhang returned to her inner room, sat on a low couch, and looked at the child in Granny Zhou's arms, saying, "Granny Zhou, bring the Sixth Miss here, let me see her."

Granny Zhou handed the child to Madam Zhang. Madam Zhang looked at the soft, obedient child who didn't cry or fuss, and liked him very much. She poked the child's little face with her finger and said, "Child, no one will blame me. Aunt Li has become more and more arrogant these past few years, relying on the master's favor, and now she has given birth to you."

I fear that the master might favor his concubine over his wife, thus jeopardizing his career and everything my son deserves. I don't want to kill you, I don't want to become a villain, so I can only ask you to suffer this injustice. I will take good care of you from now on.

But there's only one condition: you must live as a woman.

Then he said to Granny Zhou, "Clean up the room next to my bedroom and let Sixth Miss move in first. We need to invite the wet nurse over first thing tomorrow morning. We can't let Sixth Miss go hungry."

Furthermore, the Sixth Sister's living conditions will be the same as the Second Sister's from now on. You will personally take care of her.

But Granny Zhou, there's only one thing you must remember: you can't let Sixth Miss come into contact with anything related to boys, such as: clothes, things she needs to learn, etc.

"Since you're going to raise her like a young lady, then raise her completely like a young lady. If Sixth Miss doesn't listen, then punish her properly. No, if Sixth Miss does something she shouldn't have, I'll punish her myself."

Granny Zhou said, "Madam, what will you do if this old servant has to take care of the young lady?"

Zhang handed the child to Granny Zhou and said, "Granny Zhou, you are my wet nurse and also my dowry maid. I am at ease having you and me take care of the Sixth Miss together."

"Taking care of Sixth Miss requires utmost care, Granny Zhou. You should understand what I mean."

Granny Zhou replied, "Yes, Madam. This old servant will take good care of the Sixth Miss and raise her to be a delicate, well-educated, and intelligent young lady."

"Alright, I'm tired. It's getting late, and it will be dawn in two hours. If I don't sleep soon, the baby in my belly won't be able to take it." Zhang stood up, and Xiaomei immediately helped her up and walked towards the bed.

Suddenly, Madam Zhang said, "Xiaolan, you should also go with Granny Zhou to serve the Sixth Miss! The Sixth Miss always needs a personal maid to serve her at all times. Granny Zhou is getting old and shouldn't be overworked."

Xiaolan performed a curtsy and replied, "Yes, Madam."

Granny Zhou sat on a stool, holding the sixth young lady and rocking her back and forth to lull her to sleep.

He then said to Xiaolan, "Xiaolan, go to the maids' quarters in Yimei Courtyard and call two maids over. Also, tidy up the partitioned room so that the Sixth Miss can move in. Remember, keep your voices down and don't disturb the Madam."

Xiaolan bowed and said, "Yes, Granny Zhou."

What Zhang and Granny Zhou couldn't have imagined was that this infant sixth daughter had already been given a different soul—a soul from the 21st century named Yin Fengyu.

After witnessing the cruel infighting within the inner quarters and hearing firsthand the stories between Zhang Shi and Aunt Li, Yin Fengyu, who had been slapped and cried once at birth, never dared to cry again.

He was terrified that he might accidentally anger Zhang and lose his life.

Yin Fengyu couldn't understand it at all. Wasn't she just dreaming? How could she have traveled to ancient times? And everything she was experiencing now was even more real than the scenes in her dream.

Now I'm being raised as a girl, even though I'm a boy. This must be my imagination; a good night's sleep will do the trick. Yes, a good night's sleep will do the trick.
