In the suburbs of the capital, because it had rained for a few days in a row, the farmstead was covered in mud.

“There’s no end to this d.a.m.n weather,” You Bai muttered. She resigned herself to her fate and cleaned up the corridor. Seeing that it was about time, she put down the broom and went to the kitchen to get a basin of water to bring into Yuan Yuwan’s room.

She first placed the basin on a shelf at the side and walked to the bed to hang

up the curtain. Just as she lifted a corner, she saw the girl sitting motionless on the bed with her knees crossed. She was shocked. “Miss, why didn’t you call me when you woke up?”

As she spoke, she hung the bed curtain properly and touched the embroidered pillow. There was no warmth on it, so it was obvious that the girl had woken up long ago.

Her heart skipped a beat. She reached out to touch the girl’s forehead.

Yuan Yuwan subconsciously avoided her. As if she had just noticed her entering, the corners of her mouth twitched and she said, “I haven’t been awake for long. Is it still raining outside?”

“Yes, of course. This weather…” Halfway through her complaint, You Bai noticed something. His pupils constricted. “Miss, why are you crying?

Yuan Yuwan paused and raised her hand to touch her cheek. When her fingertips touched something wet, she shook her head. “The light is blinding.”

How could You Bai believe her? However, sensing that she was not in a good mood, she did not dare to ask further.

After breakfast, she saw her in the east courtyard staring blankly at a cage of rabbits. She couldn’t hold it in anymore. She asked worriedly, “Miss, are you worried about Young General Xiao?”

These rabbits were caught by Xiao Qirui when he first arrived at the manor to relieve his young lady’s boredom.

After so long, there were already more than ten of them.

The rabbit cage also expanded from a small one.

Yuan Yuwan took a while to speak. “Is there any news from Chang’an recently?”

If it were any other time, her young lady would have refuted her long ago. How could it be like this? You Bai was even more certain of her guess. He hesitated and said, “Isn’t it raining these few days? No one in the manor has entered the city, so…”

Yuan Yuwan nodded and threw the vegetable leaves in her hand into the cage. “Tell Uncle Cai to get ready. Let’s enter the city.”

You Bai was afraid that she would fall sick from being cooped up in the village, so she didn’t persuade her that it was difficult to walk in the rain. She hurriedly went to call Uncle Cai to prepare a horse.

Fifteen minutes later, the carriage left the village unsteadily and entered the city at noon.

“Miss, where are we going?” Uncle Cai asked from outside.

Yuan Yuwan pursed her lips and said, “To the Fan residence.”

After Fan Mingyuan married Xiao Ruoshui, he did not stay in the Duke’s residence. Instead, he lived in Liu’er Alley.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of Fan Manor. As soon as Yuan Yuwan got out of the carriage, another carriage drove in from the other side of the alley.

Without waiting for the carriage to stabilize, Xiao Ruoshui got out of it happily. “Sister Yuwan, why are you here?”

Seeing her stomach, Yuan Yuwan’s eyelids twitched. She quickly walked over to help her up. “You’re pregnant. Why are you still so rash?”

Xiao Ruoshui smiled and said, “Don’t worry, the doctor said that the pregnancy is going well. I’ll be fine.”

As she spoke, she patted her stomach. “This kid is so tough.”

Yuan Yuwan couldn’t help but laugh. “You have to be careful.”

“Oh my, stop talking about me. It wasn’t easy for me to survive the first three months. I was prepared to visit you in a few days when it stopped raining. Why did you enter the city in the rain?” Without waiting for Yuan Yuwan to speak, she continued, “Let’s go in first. I have good news for you.” Yuan Yuwan smiled and nodded.

“Really? We won?” In the attic, You Bai said in surprise.

Xiao Ruoshui raised her chin proudly. “I just heard this news from my father.

My father heard it from the palace. How can it be fake?”

“I heard that my brother made a great contribution this time.” She blinked at Yuan Yuwan and continued, “There has been good news twice in a row. I think it won’t be long before we can completely defeat the Wu Kingdom’s army. I only hope that we can meet at the city gate before I give birth.”

At this point, she smiled evilly. “Jiajia and Brother Song will definitely return with the army. Sister Yuwan, you’ll definitely be there to welcome Jiajia, right?”

Yuan Yuwan picked up her teacup and took a sip without saying anything. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief under the cover of her sleeve.

Author’s Note: There is a time lag when the news of the border pa.s.s reached the capital. At this time, the news they received was the second time Nanling Pa.s.s had defended the city, in which Xiao Qirui led a hundred thousand troops out of the city to fight and repel the Wu Kingdom’s army..
