Caichun came in holding the swaddling clothes. The newborn baby was small and thin, like a hairless monkey, with a red and wrinkled face. It lay quietly in Caichun's arms, neither crying nor fussing.
Lin felt unhappy when she first saw the child. It was obviously a newborn baby, but her eyes were not as pure as a baby's. She turned to look at her husband, "Have you found this child's family? Find someone to give it to her." Let's go back."
Yu Xiheng had already sent people to report to the official. At this time, the government officials had taken away the midwife and her son. What awaited them was more than ten years of imprisonment. After all, they murdered the heirs of the imperial officials.
Mrs. Lin sighed after knowing this, still a little scared in her heart, "What about the child's mother?"
Caichun told Mrs. Lin the news, "The woman died of hemorrhage while giving birth last night. Her man buried her with a straw mat. I heard from the neighbors that she had a hard life."
No wonder the child was born so thin.
Mrs. Lin looked at Yu Xiheng and lost her mind, "Husband, what should I do with this child?"
Because she also gave birth to a daughter, Lin felt a little compassion in her heart.
Yu Guan Juan looked over curiously and thought to himself.
[The fake daughter has an adult soul inside her body. If we leave her, she will definitely take revenge when she grows up. 】
[But it’s not a good idea to cut the grass and root out the roots. Mother will be soft-hearted, but what will Daddy do~]
The two people who could hear Juan Juan's heart were shocked. This baby actually had the soul of an adult in his body! This is simply unheard of!
But they believed Juan Juan's words in their hearts. Yu Xiheng calmly moved two steps away from the baby.
He coughed and pretended to be magnanimous and said, "Ayue, she is just a baby waiting for food. Children should not be responsible for the mistakes made by adults. There is no one in her family who can take care of her. Why don't we bring her back to Beijing?" Go and find a good family to adopt her."
You can't kill it, you can't throw it away, so why not take it back and keep it under your nose, so that you can be the first to know if there is any trouble.
Mrs. Lin thought so too. She smiled and nodded. The two of them looked at each other and understood each other. They spoke to each other in front of the baby and arranged her whereabouts properly.
"My husband is right, this child is quite pitiful. After I go back, I will ask my close friends to find a good family for her."
After the two of them finished their kind words, the baby in Caichun's arms closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep as if he had settled something on his mind.
Only Yu Guan Juan thought:
[Hey, was my father so kind-hearted when he was young? 】
[In his previous life, he was very cold-blooded except for his mother. Let alone a baby, he turned a blind eye even if ten babies died in front of him. Why is he doing good things now? 】
Yu Juan Juan's clean eyes made Yu Xiheng feel a little uncomfortable. He reluctantly bent down and gently tapped Yu Juan Juan's forehead, "Why do I feel like you are scolding daddy?"
[Juanjuan is still a baby, so he can’t curse~]
Having heard the name Juanjuan several times in her daughter's mind, Mrs. Lin looked at Yu Xiheng and asked tentatively, "Husband, what is our daughter's name..."
Both mother and daughter looked at him expectantly.
【Quanjuan! Roll! If dad names me Juan Juan, I will never call dad cold-blooded and ruthless again! I swear! ! 】
Yu Xiheng couldn't hold it back, raised his lips slightly and smiled gently and elegantly, "When walking in Qiuyuan, the clouds are rolling, so let's call it Juan Juan."
【That’s great ~ la la la la ~】
Lin had a faint smile on her lips, and pressed Juan Juan's cheek, "Juan Juan is so good."
After regaining enough energy, Lin and Juanjuan got into the carriage with the help of their maid. They were going back to Beijing.
The carriage bumped and swayed all the way, and Juan Juan lay drowsy in Caichun's arms. He was fed goat milk twice during the journey. After an unknown amount of time, the noise in his ears gradually increased, and the carriage stopped turning.
In front of the door of Shangshu Mansion, two tough-looking boys were standing there early. It was Yu Baiju, the third young master of Shangshu Mansion, and Yu Nanxing, the fourth young master of Shangshu Mansion. When they saw the carriage approaching from afar, they couldn't help but rush towards them. passed.
"Mother, mother, you are back! Where is my sister?"
"Mom, thank you for your hard work. Is your sister in the car? I'll help you hold her!"
As soon as Caichun came down, he was surrounded by two young masters. They said with a smile, "Miss is still sleeping and hasn't woken up yet."
So the two little boys lowered their voices and looked at the swaddling clothes.
"Wow, my sister is so white and cute. She looks like a little bunny."
"Much prettier than us. Mother said we looked like little monkeys when we were born."
Mrs. Lin smiled and pursed her lips, "We'll take a look after we go in."
At this time, Yu Nanxing saw the swaddling clothes held in the hands of the maid who got off the carriage behind, and asked doubtfully, "Mother, is that our sister too?"
Yu Xiheng helped Lin in. Hearing this, he glanced at his youngest son and said, "You have good eyesight. Have you finished your homework for today?"
Yu Nanxing suddenly covered her mouth and sneered, "No, father, I'll do it now!"
After saying that, he ran away in a flash.
Although my father looks gentle, he is so scary...
Yu Baiju was obviously much smarter. The baby was riding in a servant's carriage, and the maid he was holding was not the eldest maid next to his mother. In addition, his father's attitude was already obvious, so only Sister Caichun was holding him. It's their sister.
He followed Caichun to his mother's yard and waited for his sister to settle down before lying on the bedside and watching her sleep.
The eldest maid Cai Ying whispered a few words beside Mrs. Lin, "Madam, what should I do with the one I brought back?"
Lin paused and looked at her husband.
Yu Xiheng had a clear smile on his lips and his eyes were deep, "Sun Sheng's family only has two boys. His wife has always wanted a girl. She should treat her well. Give it to him."
Sun Sheng is the steward of the Shangshu Mansion. He and his wife have stayed in the Shangshu Mansion for many years. Their two sons are now working as servants for the eldest son. The family is loyal to the mansion, so they are allowed to raise them. Couldn't be more appropriate.
Caiying agreed and exited.
In the small cubicle, Yu Juan Juan had just woken up when she saw a little boy with a round face staring at her curiously.
[Hey, why is there a child staring at me? 】
[Looking at his age, he should be the third or fourth brother. Should I smile at him? 】
Yu Juan Juan thought for a moment, then grinned.
Yu Baiju was stunned when he heard the sound. He looked around and saw only a maid standing at the door.
Strange, I heard the voice of a child.
[What's wrong with brother? What is he looking at? Let me see it too. 】
Yu Baiju fixed his gaze on the baby. He tilted his head and said tentatively:
"Sister, I am the third brother."
[It turns out to be the third brother, he looks quite smart. 】
[By the way, my third brother seemed to have fallen into a pool and drowned when he was seven years old in his last life. My mother was very sad for a long time. 】
Yu Baiju suddenly paused and turned pale.
He is exactly seven years old this year!
