TVSWWD - Chapter 104 - Bright as the Moon

 Before going out, his father Baili Shen Qian warned a thousand times that they should maintain a good relationship between the Prime Minister's house and the General's house.

If Hua Fu's face is refuted at this time, the relationship between the two houses may not deteriorate, but what is certain is that Baili Shuangxue will still be able to thrive here by virtue of her kindness to the general's house.

On the contrary, it was she and her brother who messed up the matter, and when the time came, she might turn the tables against them...

Therefore, Baili Xin took a deep breath and put a fake smile on her lips: "...Of course, then sister will go back home later."

She is just a concubine-born daughter, a concubine-born, Baili Xin kept repeating in her heart, warning herself not to lose her sense of proportion for a concubine-born daughter.

She is a high-ranking direct descendant, and her birth mother is even more noble. She is better than Baili Shuangxue!

After a session of self-hypnosis, Baili Xin and Baili Yu said goodbye to their hosts Hua Fu and Hua Zhu. Before leaving, Baili Xin finally couldn't hold back and looked at King Qi who was still sitting upright. 

The other party still didn't look at her, but was minding his own business while drinking from a teacup.

Fortunately, he didn't look at Baili Shuangxue. Baili Xin felt slightly comforted, turned around and left.

If she looked back at this moment, she would find that the always energetic, arrogant, and domineering King Qi was holding a stack of refreshments and handing it to Baili Shuangxue. In addition to sharing, there was also a hint of anticipation on his handsome face waiting for the beauty to praise him.

Baili Xin did not see it, but Murong Yun, who was striding forward from afar, had a good look at it with her extraordinary eyesight.

Murong Yun met the twin siblings on the stone steps at the door.

Because of what happened in the garden earlier, Baili Xin had a good impression of the notorious Princess Yunhua.

Although she has been fond of King Qi since she was a child, she has to say that King Qi sometimes has a venomous tongue, and he really needs someone like Murong Yun to restrain him...

Therefore, when Baili Xin and Murong Yun brushed shoulders, she nodded very politely.

Murong Yun looked at this known cannon fodder and nodded toward her in a friendly manner.

If Baili Xin could put an end to the thoughts of King Murong You in this life, then she might not die at the hands of Baili Shuangxue.

Sometimes, the word love is really harmful. Like Baili Xin, it is quite miserable for her mother, brother, and herself to all die at the hands of a love rival.

Murong Yun put away the sadness in her heart and stepped into the main hall.

"Ayun, you are here. Your eldest sister-in-law has been talking about you for a long time, and she wishes she could go to your house to see you."

When Hua Fu saw Murong Yun come in, his face was full of gentleness, and the unfamiliar distance from the previous reception of Baili sister and brother faded away.

"A'yun didn't realize it for a while before. The General's Mansion is also A'yun's home. Even if I am grounded, I think this is within the scope."

Murong Yun also stepped forward with a smile, and Murong You, who was sitting on the seat, had a look of displeasure on his face when Murong Yun came, but he had to endure it.

After all, Murong Yun is the master here compared to him.

"Since the princess is here, why not hurry in and see your eldest sister-in-law."

It was Hua Zhu who said this. He had lost his former arrogance, and Murong Yun looked much more pleasing to the eye.

Murong Yun nodded and stepped directly into the inner room without delaying in the main hall.

Because winter has come, a charcoal fire has been lit indoors, and it is warm as soon as you enter. On the floor, Li Jiang is looking at the little meat dumplings beside her with motherly eyes.

This time when she heard the noise, she raised her neck again. When she saw Murong Yun, her face was full of surprise.

"A'yun, why are you here? Aren't you grounded?"

Li Jiang originally thought that after her body was in better condition, she would take her daughter to see Murong Yun, so that she would not be bored by being grounded alone.

Unexpectedly, Murong Yun came over this time.

"But you came here secretly?"

Li Jiang thought that several days had passed since Murong Yun was grounded and woke up from a coma. At this time, she probably couldn't bear it anymore.

Anyway, this child, even if it is His Majesty's imperial edict, there are only a few who dare disobey it.

"No way, A'yun is an aboveboard person. My uncle ordered A'yun to stay at home. Isn't this General's Mansion also A'yun's home?"

Murong Yun stepped forward with a smile, and winked at Li Jiang mischievously, her beautiful face shining brightly with a smile.

"You just like to take advantage of loopholes, that's all. You might as well come here to save yourself from being bored in the princess's mansion."

Li Jiang shook her head helplessly, with a look of doting for Murong Yun on her face.

In terms of age, she is actually not a few years older than Murong Yun, but Li Jiang has been the eldest daughter in the family since she was a child. The Li family fell into decline early. She has been worried about her younger brothers and sisters since she was a child. She finally got married and was in charge of all the affairs of the general's palace.

Therefore, he has a somewhat elder-like demeanor.

"So, A'yun came to see her little niece."

Murong Yun stretched out her hand and teased her sober little niece. She must have just finished drinking milk. She still had her round eyes open, clenched her little fists, and burped, which was very cute.

"Have you chosen a name?"

Murong Yun estimated that this birth was only half a month old, and the nobles of South Chu usually decide to give their names earlier and notify their close relatives.

The more talented children are, the more they value these things.

Those who are more particular will test the five elements attributes of their children in advance, and when choosing a name, they will ask a special shaman to choose the best name according to their destiny, just like Murong You did.

However, this practice does not seem to be popular in the General's Mansion. Except for Murong Yun's own names, the rest of the children's names were chosen by General Hua himself.

I heard that her father did not believe in ghosts and gods, and believed in the theory that man can conquer heaven.

"Yes, my husband gave her the single character 'Jiao' which means bright and I gave her the nickname 'dumpling'." 

Li Jiang touched Dumpling's sparse hair, and when she talked about her child, she couldn't help but smile softly at the corners of her mouth, and her whole body was shrouded in the radiance of motherhood.

"Jiao? Bright as the moon? What a good name. I hope this child can be in the light all her life."

Murong Yun is also very satisfied with this name. The existence of dumplings is not a surprise to her. If possible, she also wants dumplings to be like her name, so as not to be affected by these plots and fate throughout her life.

"Well, little dumpling, you have to be happy in this life."

Li Jiang looked at the dumpling. Because she had been lying down, the dumpling had her mouth deflated and her little hands were shaking. When Murong Yun saw this, she bent down and picked up the dumpling.

Dumpling looked at the beautiful sister in front of her and grinned. It was just a mouth, but the gums were still bare, which made her look even more honest.

Murong Yun looked at her and smiled. Just like this, she teased the little dumplings with Li Jiang for a whole day.

During this period, Baili Shuangxue also came in, took Li Jiang's pulse, and prescribed her some medical treatment.

Due to the danger of this life, Li Jiang suffered a huge deficit in both body and spiritual energy. Therefore, even as a spiritual practitioner, she had to recuperate in bed like ordinary people.

It wasn't until sunset that Murong Yun came out of the inner room with her lips curled up and in a very good mood.
