A lucky little peasant girl is reborn and brings prosperity to her entire family.

Tian Denghua brought in a bowl of steamed egg custard.

The perfectly smooth steamed egg custard was topped with two drops of sesame oil and a sprinkle of finely chopped scallions, making it look incredibly appetizing.

Eggs are always a precious commodity, and although Qi Lian swallowed hard, she still managed to politely decline, saying, "Mother, this is too extravagant..."

Tian Denghua glared at her: "This was made especially for you! You still have another baby in your belly stealing your nutrients, so you're eating for two. Don't get so thin while you're pregnant! What if your mother sees you like this and suspects I'm abusing you?"

Qi Lian reluctantly accepted it, but she still held out the first spoonful of steamed egg custard to Song Yanyan, who was standing next to her: "Come on, Yanyan, open your mouth."

Song Yanyan didn't react in time and subconsciously leaned closer and opened her mouth, "Ah."

Tian Denghua stretched out two fingers and pressed Song Yanyan's protruding head back, then took out a handkerchief from her bosom, opened it, and took out a boiled egg: "You eat this! Don't eat your sister-in-law's."

Song Yanyan came to her senses and blushed: "Sister-in-law, you need to take good care of yourself so that the little nephew and niece in your belly can grow up well... Don't feed me anymore, I'm all grown up now, I can't compete with the unborn little nephew and niece for food."

Qi Lian smiled shyly: "It's just missing this one bite."

Tian Denghua frowned: "Whether it's good or bad, you can eat yours."

Qi Lian responded and lowered her head to slowly eat her steamed egg custard.

Song Yanyan took the boiled egg that Tian Denghua handed her and sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) to carefully peel it.

Tian Denghua took out another boiled egg from her handkerchief, looked around the room, and, not seeing anyone, asked Song Yanyan, "Where is your second brother?"

Song Yanyan carefully peeled the eggshell: "Second Brother just went out."

I guess he was a little upset, so he went outside to cool off in the cold wind to calm down.

Tian Denghua complained irritably, "I don't know what your second brother is thinking all day long! He was sickly when he was little, and he almost didn't make it. Back then, the family was struggling and couldn't afford medicine, so I came up with a folk remedy. I went up the mountain every day to pick herbs and boil a big tub of herbal water for him to soak in. I put in so much effort to raise him to this age! And here he is, ruining his health for a girl... That girl doesn't care, but his mother does!"

Tian Denghua grumbled and left with the boiled egg.

Qi Lian ate the delicious steamed egg custard that Tian Denghua had made for her, taking small bites. Suddenly remembering something, she looked up at Song Yanyan and asked, "Yanyan, do you think the baby in my belly is a nephew or a niece?"

She looked at Song Yanyan with some anticipation. Isn't it said that children have sharp eyes and can see many things that adults can't?

I wonder if Yan Yan can tell whether her baby is a boy or a girl?

Song Yanyan paused slightly as she peeled the egg.

To be honest, Song Yanyan really didn't know.

After all, in her dream, Qi Lian unknowingly drank water turned into talisman ash and then fell, turning into a pool of blood.

However, Song Yanyan knew that her sister-in-law recovered and became pregnant again.

That pregnancy resulted in twins, a boy and a girl. The little boy and girl were incredibly cute, with fair and tender skin. They would giggle and blow bubbles at Song Yanyan whenever they saw her.

But even those adorable nieces and nephews couldn't escape the butcher's knife in the end...

A pang of sorrow welled up in Song Yanyan's eyes.

She lowered her eyes and slowly peeled off the thin membrane sticking to the egg, saying, "Sister-in-law, I think it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as it's healthy, that would be the best."

Qi Lian felt that Song Yanyan's words had struck a chord with her.

She was convinced.

This is her first child. As long as the child is born safely and healthily, that's better than anything else!

A hazy smile appeared on Qi Lian's face.

When Song Risheng returned in the afternoon, the good news of Qi Lian's pregnancy hit him like a ton of bricks. He was so happy that he practically stumbled into the house. If Tian Denghua hadn't followed him in, worried that Song Risheng, being a first-time father, might hurt Qi Lian, Song Risheng would have almost picked her up and spun her around a few times!

Tian Denghua stopped the person, her eyes wide, wanting to curse, but then she remembered Song Risheng's father who died young, and how he had done many foolish things after learning that she was pregnant with Song Risheng.

Tian Denghua's eyes were a little red.

Song Yanyan sat cross-legged on the warm kang (heated brick bed), smiling as she watched Song Risheng stammering as he asked Qi Lian if she felt unwell.

Qi Lian smiled shyly, "No, I'm perfectly fine. Mother just steamed a bowl of egg custard for me!"

After Song Risheng calmed down a bit, Song Yanyan asked him about sending Luo Jinyu away.

Song Risheng scratched his head: "Yanyan, that white-bearded old immortal in your dream was really accurate! That little girl surnamed Luo is such a benefactor! I took her to the county town, and as soon as we entered the town, we met the wife of the county clerk! The clerk's wife took a liking to her at first sight. Knowing that she had escaped from the slave trade, she felt great pity for her and said she would help her get a good status in the county and take her in as her goddaughter... Then the little girl happily followed the clerk's wife!"

After learning that Luo Jinyu was actually a jinx who would bring disaster to their family, Tian Denghua didn't give Luo Jinyu a friendly look. Upon hearing this, she snorted and pouted.

Song Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "It's good that you've seen them off!"

As for being taken away by the registrar's wife, she truly lives up to her reputation as a real heiress, much like the heroine of a story. Now that she's become a daughter of an official, she can continue to live a pampered life.

However, Song Yanyan suddenly remembered something else.

In my dream, around the time of the Lunar New Year, something seemed to have happened in the county, and the county clerk was imprisoned.

Song Yanyan tried hard to recall, but it seemed that the registrar was not involved. She remembered that there was no registrar among the officials who were arrested.

Song Yanyan felt relieved and her expression relaxed a lot—she hoped that Luo Jinyu could stay peacefully in the clerk's family as the clerk's adopted daughter and the daughter of an official!

Don't cause any trouble, stay away from her house!

Now that Luo Jinyu has no connection with their family, and her sister-in-law's first pregnancy has been saved, everything is moving in a positive direction, and Song Yanyan is really happy!

……

A few days later, Song Yanyan got up early in the morning, carried a basket on her back, and told Tian Denghua that she was going to the foot of the mountain to collect firewood.

Tian Denghua had no suspicions, and since Song Yanyan had recovered very well in the past few days, she was quite at ease. She only told her not to go too far, and then waved her away.

With a touch of excitement, Song Yanyan headed down to the foot of the mountain.

That day, she took Qi Lian to see Doctor Qi. When she saw the limping hunter, she remembered the lame boy she had saved in her dream. At that moment, she made up her mind!

She still had to save that person! She was determined to seize the opportunity that originally belonged to Luo Jinyu!

Song Yanyan remembered clearly that it was today, the birthday of an aunt who was close to her mother!

In her dream, she had nothing to do that day and thought about helping to ease the burden on her family, so she took Luo Jinyu to the mountains to collect firewood.

The two chased a rabbit and stumbled into a mountain hollow, where they inadvertently saved the son of a high-ranking official in the prefecture!
