Quick Transmigration: The Pregnant Little Fairy is Pampered by the Heirless Boss
Chapter 12 The General's Little Darling
"Madam, the Ji family has sent someone to invite you to come for a talk today."
Early in the morning, Ji Xiaosong had just finished planting all the seeds in her own space when Uncle Chen suddenly came to deliver a message.
“It’s been a few days since I last visited my parents and brothers. I heard that my sisters-in-law had just returned home, so I went to see them.”
As Ji Xiaosong spoke, she turned around and instructed the maid to prepare the carriage, her eyes filled with anticipation and joy.
A few days ago, my three sisters-in-law went to Baiyu Temple in Ningzhou to offer incense. They calculated the days and now they've just returned.
Uncle Chen quickly replied, "This old servant will make the arrangements immediately."
Before long, the carriage was ready.
With the help of her maid, Ji Xiaosong gracefully boarded the carriage, which headed towards the Ji family's residence.
As expected, the eldest sister-in-law was already waiting for Ji Xiaosong at the main gate with her maids and servants. As soon as she saw the general's carriage, she immediately went to greet it.
"Ah Song!" the sister-in-law called out with a smile.
As soon as Ji Xiaosong got off the carriage, her sister-in-law grabbed her hand. "We've been waiting for you! Were you tired from the journey?"
Ji Xiaosong smiled and shook her head, "Sister-in-law, I'm not tired, I just miss you all so much."
The original owner's sisters-in-law had always been very kind to her. In her previous life, she had not lived well in the Song family, and her three sisters-in-law had even offered to take her back to the Ji family.
The two walked hand in hand into the mansion, their laughter echoing throughout the journey.
As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw his second and third sisters-in-law sitting together talking. When they saw Ji Xiaosong come in, they both stood up to greet her.
"Ah Song, come sit here." Second Sister-in-law greeted her warmly.
Ji Xiaosong did as instructed and sat down. She looked around at her sisters-in-law and asked, "Sisters, did your trip to offer incense go smoothly? Did you encounter anything interesting?"
Second Sister-in-law chuckled and said, "The journey was smooth, but the incense at Baiyu Temple is really burning brightly; there's a long queue of people waiting to draw lots."
Third Sister-in-law continued, "That's right. I've also heard that the fortune sticks at this temple are very accurate. Your Second Sister-in-law and I both drew good fortune sticks, hoping that everything will go smoothly for our family."
Ji Xiaosong blinked and asked curiously, "Then tell me quickly, sisters-in-law, what kind of auspicious fortune sticks did you draw?"
The eldest sister-in-law laughed and said, "Speaking of our Ji family, it was originally extremely dangerous, but a lucky star descended upon the family, and we were able to turn bad luck into good and our fortunes prospered. At that time, I thought that this lucky star might be our A-Song. After all, we haven't encountered any difficulties since we broke off the engagement with the Song family."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaosong blushed and said, "Sister-in-law is just teasing me. I don't have that kind of ability."
Second Sister-in-law chimed in: "Ah Song, don't underestimate yourself. Since you married into the General's Mansion, our Ji family has benefited a lot. Maybe it really is because of you."
Third Sister-in-law nodded in agreement: "That's right, Ah Song is intelligent and kind, he will definitely bring good luck to our family."
Ji Xiaosong smiled shyly: "With my sisters-in-law saying all this, I don't know what to do. I just wish that our Ji family will be safe and sound from now on."
Just then, Madam Ji walked in accompanied by her maid. "You lot, you never stop talking as soon as you meet."
Everyone rose and bowed. Madam Ji smiled and waved her hand, gesturing for everyone to sit down. "Ah Song, come here and let your mother take a good look at you."
Ji Xiaosong walked to Madam Ji's side. Madam Ji took her hand and looked her up and down. "Hmm, you look well, so I'm relieved. General Xiao has been gone for almost ten days. You're not one to go out much, and I was really worried you'd get bored."
"Mother, I won't."
Ji Xiaosong pondered how to tell them that she was preparing to leave for the North to find Xiao Shen the next day, but after thinking it over, she figured they probably wouldn't agree, so she decided not to tell them at all.
"In a little while, you and your three sisters-in-law will go to Qiongyufang to pick out some jewelry. It's rare to get you out here to relax, so be sure to have a good look around."
Madam Ji smiled and took out several silver notes from her sleeve, handing them to Ji Xiaosong and her three sisters-in-law, saying, "Here, take these! It's a rare opportunity to go out and shop, so don't be shy. Buy whatever you like. Daughters and daughters-in-law of the Ji family should always be dressed in style."
The four men accepted the silver notes, bowed, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mother."
Lady Ji nodded in satisfaction and said kindly, "Go on, have a good look around!"
Ji Xiaosong and her sisters-in-law bowed to Madam Ji again with dignified manners to express their gratitude, and then walked happily toward Qiongyufang.
As soon as they stepped into Qiongyufang, they saw a familiar yet repulsive figure.
At this moment, Song Yuxi was impatiently helping a simply dressed woman choose a hairpin.
"What bad luck! How could I run into this heartless man here?" The sister-in-law frowned, her face showing disgust.
Second Sister-in-law snorted and said, "This Song Yuxi is really tasteless. Look at his unwilling appearance, he doesn't know how to cherish the woman beside him."
Third Sister-in-law lightly covered her mouth and nose, her face full of disdain: "Don't let such a filthy person spoil our fun. Ah Song, let's go somewhere else."
"There's no need to avoid him. The capital is only so big, and there aren't many shops that are considered reputable. Besides, we're strangers now, so there's no need to let him spoil our good mood. Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, let's choose our jewelry freely and just pretend he doesn't exist."
Upon hearing Ji Xiaosong's voice, Song Yuxi suddenly turned around.
His gaze accurately found Ji Xiaosong's figure, and Song Yuxi's eyes lit up instantly, mixed with surprise, regret and a trace of barely perceptible longing.
His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.
His body unconsciously took a small step forward, but then stopped as the simply dressed woman pulled him back.
"Dr. Song, think about the Second Prince's grand plan. If you were to get involved with Madam Xiao in public now, the consequences would be more than you can bear."
Song Yuxi's body stiffened abruptly, and his face instantly darkened.
“Miss Ji and I have known each other since childhood and have a deep friendship. If she were to stand on our side, wouldn’t it be easy to take over the Xiao family?”
"So, is Physician Song planning to raid General Xiao's house while he's away?"
The woman dressed in plain clothes lowered her head slightly, a self-deprecating smile playing on her lips, and said in an almost inaudible voice, "Then what am I, the woman who is about to marry you,?"
Li Wanyu had been in love with Song Yuxi since childhood, but at that time Song Yuxi was engaged to Ji Xiaosong.
However, even without this engagement, it was not something someone of her background could even dream of, so she could only bury this feeling deep in her heart.
Ji Xiaosong broke off her engagement with Song Yuxi, damaging Song Yuxi's reputation, and everyone avoided him.
However, Li Wanyu seized the opportunity and took the initiative to contact the Second Prince's faction, which gave her the chance to become his legitimate wife.
"Who do you think you are? Ha, don't you know yourself?"
Song Yuxi ignored Li Wanyu, casually picked out a white jade hairpin, and strode quickly toward Ji Xiaosong.
Xiao Shen went to quell the rebellion this time, and who knows if he will have a chance to return, or how much time he will need to return. He has plenty of opportunities.
