After my whole family overheard my thoughts, they went berserk.

"You'll never know until you die that this was all the work of your spouse. How tragic."

Shi Lingfeng trembled all over; he had never imagined that his family's end would be so tragic.

But he was too obsessed with medicine to notice these things.

"Father, Mother, I know I was wrong!" Shi Lingfeng kowtowed and said, "From today onwards, I will devote myself to my studies and help Father manage state affairs. I will never make Father and Mother angry again!"

Even the emperor was shocked.

Did we knock his pig brain out?

That must be it. I should have beaten him up a few more times!

"Mother, may I see my sister?"

He walked over and looked at Shi Miaomiao; she was truly likable.

"Hello, second brother! You're quite handsome, but don't do anything foolish again, or the tragic end of our family will lead to your own!"

Shi Lingfeng smiled, a very happy smile.

Perhaps it's because his sister thinks he's handsome, and only he can hear her innermost thoughts!

He also noticed that Shi Miaomiao had a string of conspicuous Buddhist prayer beads on her hand.

"What's wrong with my second brother? Why is he staring at the prayer beads on my hand? Is he trying to steal them?"

Shi Lingfeng chuckled to himself, he guessed right!

"Mother, may I take my little sister out to play?"

Shi Miaomiao was very excited.

"I'm so happy! Of all my older brothers, only my second brother takes me out to play. Mother and Father, please grant my wish and let me fly free!"

The Emperor and Empress both kept their secrets to themselves.

"So you do know how to take care of your sister!" The emperor stood up and kicked him in the butt.

"Pfft!" The Empress laughed too.

Shi Lingfeng knew that his father had tacitly approved.

"Take good care of your sister. If even a single hair on her head is missing, I'll beat you so badly you won't be able to get up!"

Shi Lingfeng happily carried Shi Miaomiao out of the palace and headed straight for the Tianqi Embassy.

"Brother Mu, look what good things I've brought you!" Shi Lingfeng, disregarding his injuries, happily walked into Mu Xuechuan's house.

Shi Miaomiao rolled her eyes in disgust.

"Idiot, I'm a human being, okay?"

When Mu Xuechuan saw Shi Miaomiao arrive, he reached out to hug him, but Shi Lingfeng held him protectively in his arms.

"I haven't hugged you enough yet!"

Mu Xuechuan looked at Shi Miaomiao carefully and found her to be quite pleasing to the eye.

With a chubby little face, big eyes, and unique double eyelids, she also wears two small red flowers on her head, making her look very auspicious.

Such a tiny baby, you can't help but fall in love with him at first glance.

"Huh, he's still alive? Looks like the talisman worked! This guy probably won't target me and my family anymore, right?"

Mu Xuechuan listened to Shi Miaomiao's thoughts with a calm expression.

Absolutely not!

“Brother Mu, the Buddhist prayer beads on my sister’s wrist have been blessed. Since you are in poor health, it would be beneficial for you to carry them with you.”

Shi Miaomiao rolled her eyes and spat in his face.

"You beast! Am I even your real sister? You secretly gave my protective item to a guy without my permission! I seriously suspect you two are having an affair!"

Shi Lingfeng was speechless.

He couldn't understand what nonsense she was spouting.

Mu Xuechuan couldn't help but chuckle: "Did you ask your sister?"

"No need to ask, what's hers is mine." He pinched her little face: "Look at you, so fair and tender, you have a very auspicious appearance. Giving her the Buddhist beads would be a waste."

"Shi Lingfeng, I'm certain you're a beast! I'm still just a little baby! How could you do this to me?!"

As Mu Xuechuan listened to her thoughts, a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

"Take it. Consider it a token of your love. When she grows up, you can use this string of prayer beads to propose to her. She won't be able to back out even if she wants to!"

"You beast, one in a century! We've only just met, and you've already sold me out like this? Who are your family members here?!"

"Pfft!" Shi Miaomiao spat out her saliva, spraying it directly onto his face.

Shi Lingfeng wiped the drool off his face.

“Sister, don’t be silly. I’m doing a good deed. This is my best brother. I thought he would never get married in his life, but now that you’re born, I can rest easy.”

"Bah! Shi Lingfeng, I'll never forgive you!"

Shi Miaomiao's eyes kept bulging.

"In that case, I should also give her a gift in return."

Mu Xuechuan accepted the Buddhist beads and stuffed them into his bosom. He then took the jade pendant from his waist, folded it in half, and handed it to Shi Miaomiao.

Shi Miaomiao was speechless.

Why can't she speak?!

Did those two beasts even consider her feelings?

"And, does your family wholesale jade pendants?"

In the original book, Shi Yunyun had one, which was given to him by Mu Xuechuan. Now, he's even giving her another one.

Shi Lingfeng took the jade pendant and put it into Shi Miaomiao's pocket.

"My sister has agreed, but she can't speak yet. She asked me to accept it on her behalf. My sister and you are childhood sweethearts, and you are deeply in love. I am your witness!"

"Shi Lingfeng, why don't you just die?"

Shi Miaomiao wanted to jump up and slap him a few times.

What kind of childhood sweetheart relationship is this?

Mu Xuechuan is already twenty years old, and she's only two months old.

How can you lie through your teeth without a care in the world?

Shi Miaomiao got angry, her little eyes glaring at Shi Lingfeng for a full half hour.

"Brother Mu, my sister seems angry. Do you know why?"

Mu Xuechuan raised an eyebrow: "Don't you know your own limitations?"

Shi Lingfeng shook his head.

"I understand. My little sister must want to go out and play. I'll take her shopping. I'll come see you another day!"

After saying that, he took the baby out to the street.

On the bustling street, Shi Miaomiao felt very curious. Although she could not eat or walk, she was happy to see the outside world.

"It seems like I haven't been out shopping for many years. This street used to be full of shops selling medicinal herbs, but now there are all sorts of novel things."

"After all, it's only because you're not smart enough that you're studying medicine in a poor, remote place when your own country produces medicinal herbs and has advanced medical technology. You're almost turning into a caveman."

"What would you like, little sister?" Shi Lingfeng wandered aimlessly down the street, unsure of what to buy.

"All I want right now is a hammer!"

understood.

arrangement!

He found a blacksmith shop with various weapons on display, and an iron hammer hanging there, which he stared at intently every second.

“My little sister is quite something; she’s so young yet already has a fascination with hammers. Since she likes them, let’s buy them!” Shi Lingfeng said generously. “Boss, do you have any gold ones?”

Upon hearing this, the boss's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed.

"Sir, you have a good eye. Our shop's prized possession is the golden hammer, made entirely of pure gold and handcrafted. Take a look."

Shi Lingfeng looked it over and weighed it in his hand; it was quite heavy.

"This is it. It's in a pretty brocade box. I'm giving it to my sister."

She rolled her eyes every second.

"Shi Lingfeng, at least you still have some conscience. I'll spare you this time because of this golden hammer. But if you had this iron hammer, I'd smash your head in when it grows up!"

Shi Lingfeng's forehead was covered in sweat.

"Young Master Shi, I didn't expect to meet you here?"

A sweet, coquettish voice came from behind him, making his bones melt.
