"Hmm, Xiaxia, I understand. I’ll listen to you."
After being filled with a pot of self-help advice by Yang Chuxia, Commandery Princess Dongyang’s spirits were revived once again.
Chengcheng was brought in again at this mont and imdiately tugged on Yang Chuxia’s sleeve, "Auntie, I want to go find Brother Yangyang."
"Then wait until Auntie goes back in the afternoon, you can go with Auntie."
"Alright, alright!" Chengcheng nodded repeatedly and even pulled Su Ma to pack his clothes, evidently wanting to stay at Yang Chuxia’s ho for a few more days.
"Letting him go to your place is good." Dongyang said, "There’s no child to play with him at ho, he’s too lonely. He doesn’t want to bother with the children from the second branch either."
"In that case, you should have more children with Mu Shaoling." Yang Chuxia laughed, "After all, the Mu Family has great wealth, they can afford it."
Yang Chuxia thought to herself, whether it’s ancient tis or modern tis, wealthy families are indeed better. You can have as many children as you want without ever worrying about being unable to afford them.
"You are better off!" Talking about this made Commandery Princess Dongyang envious, "You gave birth twice and have four children, while others have to give birth four tis."
"Pure luck." Regarding this, Yang Chuxia could only explain it this way because, in Yang Family, Ye Family, or Luo Family, there were no other twins born. If it’s not due to genetics, then it must truly be luck.
"Your luck is just too good, so many people envy you."
In the Capital City for all these years, Dongyang understood clearly that in these high-status families, having children is the best ans to stabilize one’s footing, especially having boys; the more boys you have, the more stable your status becos.
"You shouldn’t envy , you’re not bad yourself."
After chatting with Dongyang for a while, soone reported the arrival of Mu’s Second Madam.
Yang Chuxia noticed that from when the person ca to report to her entering, the timing was surprisingly equal.
Sure enough, in Mu Family, this Second Madam had firmly placed Commandery Princess Dongyang as a mber of the younger generation.
"Oh! Isn’t this Madam Ye?"
"Second Madam Mu!" Yang Chuxia slightly turned her body.
"Madam Ye, have you co today to take soone?"
Before the greetings were even finished, the visitor couldn’t wait to send Ming Liu off, making Yang Chuxia suspicious that she wanted to do sothing bad.
Pretending not to understand what she was saying, Yang Chuxia replied, "Yes, I’ve co to take soone. Dongyang said Chengcheng is too lonely at ho by himself, so I’m taking him to Prince An’s Mansion for a few days. My kids at ho all like him and love to play with him."
Second Madam Mu’s heart chilled; she knew very well she was referring to that lowly girl, but Yang Chuxia answered saying she was taking Chengcheng.
"Haha, so you’re actually taking Chengcheng." Second Madam Mu feigned embarrassnt by covering her mouth, then said, "I thought Madam Ye ca to take Ming Liu. After all, she’s been in our Mu Residence for quite so days. Originally, I thought Madam Ye had given her to Dongyang. Yesterday, I bumped into her and asked her a couple of questions and found out it wasn’t the case."
Yang Chuxia, hearing this, only replied, "Her? No rush, I’ve heard Dongyang still has many embroidery tasks unfinished." Yang Chuxia took the tea passed by Su Ma, sipped it, and said, "That girl is the best at embroidery in our household. The clothes she embroiders, the buttons she crafts, are various and suitable for children to wear. Dongyang said she borrowed her to embroider so clothes for the kid."
"Yes, Chengcheng’s has been done quite a bit, only the Second’s have just started." Dongyang added, "Second Aunt, didn’t I ntion this to you before?"
"Did you ntion it?" Second Madam Mu pretending a little, "Can’t compare with young people, my mory is poor."
