Until Sheng Yuan lay on her bed, her mind was still thinking about the chaotic relationships among the characters in the Sheng Guogong Palace.

In fact, there is one thing that she has never figured out. It is estimated that based on the current conditions, she will not be able to figure out in a short period of time. Her uncle is more than eight years older than her father. However, the lobby of his uncle's house Is it strange that her brother Sheng Shu is only slightly older than her brother Sheng Xin?

If it were just this point, it could be said that her uncle and aunt had children late in life, only in their thirties.

However, her second uncle Sheng Xiangjiang is only one year younger than her eldest uncle Sheng Xiangya. He also got married at the age of eighteen, but his eldest son Sheng Dio is a full four years younger than Sheng Shu!

Calculated this way, he only had a child fifteen years after his marriage!

Thinking about it this way, it’s too much of a coincidence!

Of course, this situation will only remain between the eldest uncle and the second uncle. When it comes to her father and her fourth and fifth uncles, it will be normal.

Her father was married at the age of twenty, and her brother Sheng Xin was born at the age of twenty-three;

Her fourth uncle got married at the age of nineteen and gave birth to his eldest son at the age of twenty.

As for her fifth uncle, because his fiancée was three years younger than him, he didn't get married until he was twenty, but he soon had his eldest daughter.

So, the battle for Sheng Guogong’s successor started very early?

Realizing this situation, Sheng Yuan scratched her face and felt that her eldest brother's decision to stay in the Zheng family for a long time was really a wise decision!

After all, before her uncle inherited the Duke's mansion, her eldest brother, as the second son in the mansion, had a higher inheritance right than the second son Sheng Xuan of the uncle's family!

If the uncle and the eldest cousin are gone, then if something goes wrong with Duke Sheng, the position of heir apparent in the Duke's mansion will fall to her father. At that time, her eldest brother, as her father's eldest son, will naturally have the right to inherit.

Thinking of this, Sheng Yuan felt a little cold. She seemed to have come to an inference: before her uncle inherited the Duke's mansion, the relationship between her father and her uncle did not seem to be so indestructible.

No wonder her father just said that after moving out, he would no longer care about the bad guys in this house!

So that’s it!

Sheng Yuan's analysis scared her a little, and she didn't know if she was overthinking it, but the previous system reminder suddenly appeared silently.

Just like Mrs. Chang bribed her servants in the name of Mrs. Liang to attack her mother when she was giving birth, with the intention of breaking the alliance between the first, third and fifth bedrooms; they may not find opportunities to attack her, causing even greater consequences. Confusion, after all, if her father really ignored his temper, it would be hard to see, who would let the current queen and prince support him!

The more Sheng Yuan thought about it, the more nervous she became, fearing that someone would plot against her before the system started working.

After all, whether it is to turn the big house and the third house against each other, or the plastic alliance between the big house, the third house and the fifth house is disintegrated, or others are using the third house to attack the second house and the fourth house, she is always a good starting point. Who will let her? It’s the old pimple of my parents and my dear baby!

This is not because she is narcissistic. The main reason is that she just overheard when she was eavesdropping. Her parents said that they did not plan to have any more children in the future. Three children would be enough for them. As for the work of reproduction, that was waiting for her. Brother will finish it when he grows up.

"Mother Wu, why are you here?" Xiaoyao's voice interrupted Sheng Yuan's memories. As a reflex, she changed her sleeping position without much thought and pretended to be asleep very skillfully.

Xiaoyao is Shengyuan's maid, and Aunt Wu is Shengyuan's nanny.

"It's getting cold at night. I was afraid that Sister Yuan would kick the quilt around again, so I came over to take a look. You, too, just lie down quickly. I went in to see Sister Yuan and closed the door behind me."

"Okay, then I'll bother you, grandma!"

Sheng Yuan listened from a distance and couldn't help frowning. Although she was a child, she always slept well. She never kicked the quilt randomly. At most, she would wrap herself up with a small quilt when rolling around!

Grandma Yang said that she was very easy to take care of, and the only thing she paid attention to was not to get prickly heat from the heat.

Thinking of this, Sheng Yuan felt that she might have thought too much. After all, Grandma Wu was her nanny, so it was not wrong to think more. After all, she was just a child in her eyes.

The possibility of a child kicking the quilt is not small. She works with a responsible attitude and should be rewarded. How can she doubt her casually?

Thinking like this, Sheng Yuan felt that the somewhat suspicious mood affected by the system seemed to have gradually calmed down.

Of course, you still have to pretend to be asleep.

After all, if Nanny Wu saw her up so late, she would nag her endlessly.

Sheng Yuan thought like this, her breathing became more steady, and her originally clear mind began to feel faintly confused again. She thought that if Nanny Wu didn't come over again, she would really fall asleep.

Soon, the sound of curtain opening sounded, and familiar footsteps gradually approached.

Mother Wu stood outside the tent and seemed to hesitate for a moment, but before long, she lifted the tent and looked over.

Sheng Yuan, who had perfected her acting skills in pretending to sleep, felt the light in the space suddenly brighten, and then a line of sight was locked tightly on her face.

"Sister Yuan? Sister Yuan?" Nanny Wu called Sheng Yuan softly several times. She saw that the little guy only moved his little mouth slightly, and seemed to be sleeping deeply.

After hesitating for a moment, Nanny Wu gently patted Sheng Yuan on the shoulder with trembling hands.

This is thanks to the maids who overheard mentioning that if she is asleep, if she is lightly tapped on the shoulder, she will turn over on her own.

This was originally something the eldest maid asked the little maid to pay attention to, and the purpose was to take better care of her, but at this moment, it became a detail to keep her acting skills secret, which made Sheng Yuan unable to explain how she felt.

However, feeling aggrieved, Sheng Yuan still showed off her acting skills without leaving a trace, muttered, turned around, and fell asleep facing inside.

"Sister Yuan! Sister Yuan!" Nanny Wu called softly with a trembling tone and almost inaudible breath. The emotions in her tone seemed to be very complicated.

Sheng Yuan could feel that what Nanny Wu called was Sister Yuan's name, but it was not her. She seemed to be calling her daughter through her.

Sheng Yuan felt sad, but she didn't know why she felt sad. She just felt that her heart was filled with panic, sour and uncomfortable.

She thought that if Aunt Wu stopped moving, she could forgive her and then find a way to guide her to help.

Unfortunately, Sheng Yuan will be disappointed.

Grandma Wu finally took action.

Sheng Yuan felt those familiar hands caressing the top of her head, and listened to the familiar words with a hint of sadness, saying "I'm sorry" over and over again, and her heart suddenly doubled.

The moment she felt her quilt being pulled away and the little pocket holding her belly being lifted up, Sheng Yuan turned over uncontrollably, used all her strength, howled and cried.

The sound was so loud that it seemed like the tiles on the roof were shaking.

The sound was so loud that it frightened Grandma Wu, frightened the maid, and even Sheng An, who was across the small courtyard from Sheng Yuan, woke up.

Seeing her parents running over in a hurry, Sheng Yuan looked at Nanny Wu who was lying on the ground, as if she hadn't recovered from the shock. She couldn't help but be shocked: Good guy, she didn't control it just now and turned it up!
