Chapter 907: Chapter 902: Getting Some Air

The weather had warmed up a bit on this day.

Su Jin woke up early but stayed nestled under the covers, unwilling to get up.

Though there were many braziers in the room, the ancient doors and windows really couldn’t keep the warmth in, and the wind seeped through the silk gauze, no number of braziers could compare with the warmth under the quilt.

Xingxing knew her young lady liked to linger in bed, though she was an impatient person.

Having heard from Bi Zhu that the plum blossoms in the southeast corner of the garden had bloomed, she went early in the morning to pick the prettiest branch and brought it back.

Placed in a porcelain vase on the shelf, it looked beautiful no matter how one looked at it.

Su Jin asked, "Where did you pick the plum blossoms?"

"Right in the big garden, they’re very pretty," said Xingxing.

Su Jin became interested.

Exploring the snow for plum blossoms has a unique charm.

Though there was no snow.

"Later, I will pick a branch and gift it to the Princess Consort," Su Jin said.

With the help of the plum blossoms, Su Jin finally lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Xingxing helped Su Jin get dressed, then washed up, and ate breakfast.

Half an hour passed.

The sky rarely showed the sun, and the wind was not as cold.

Su Jin strolled at leisure to the garden, whether by chance or not, Xie Jinhuan was also there.

Seeing Su Jin, she approached and bowed, calling, "Sister-in-law."

Her voice was soft and weak, much like the second household after the downfall of the false Old Madam, almost with no sense of presence.

Xie Jinhuan’s gaze at Su Jin carried a hint of timidity.

In the past, Su Jin had extended an olive branch to her, once offering the Beauty Pavilion’s discount token to her.

Xie Jinhuan estimated that Xie Jinyu and Xie Jinxiu didn’t dare accept it.

These past few months, Xie Jinhuan often pondered whether if she had accepted her sister-in-law’s kindness, would her situation now be completely different?

The one who harmed Old Madam Zhen was the false Old Madam, Aunt Ding only chose deceit afterward, she didn’t participate in causing Old Madam’s death, couldn’t be considered the long household’s true enemy.

After the incident, the second household didn’t dare complain and did nothing.

There was an implication of letting the third household take the lead, while the second household watched from behind.

The more lively the third household was, the more tragic their end.

Now the Third Master had become a cripple, once more missing, whereabouts unknown, the Third Madam, though she bore no worries of name, had become almost insane.

The marriage begged from the Old Prince also got annulled, with no one coming to propose anymore.

Xie Jinhuan believed Xie Jinxiu could marry off, but whoever the husband wouldn’t equal the young lord from Duke Xingguo Mansion.

The second household did nothing, yet remained safe and sound.

It was their stupidity and foolishness, sister-in-law dared to hit Princess Shouning, dared to have her sent back to the palace, yet they sought to suppress her, wasn’t this just asking for trouble?

This suffering, they’ve borne for too long.

Xie Jinhuan paid respect to Su Jin, Su Jin merely smiled, not saying much.

Xie Jinhuan cautiously looked at Su Jin and said, "Sister-in-law..."

Su Jin looked at her, "Are you looking for me for something?"

Xie Jinhuan said, "In the past, it was us who wronged you, could you forgive our second household?"

Su Jin smiled, "The harm from the second household against me, I wouldn’t dwell on it."

As for the harm caused by Aunt Ding, that was irreparable.

Aunt Ding clutched a leverage for many years, living happily, the Prince admitted guilt as a mother for many years.

The Prince also never exacted revenge on Second Master, already being kind to the utmost.

If the second household still covets more, it’s to lose more as they ask for more.

Su Jin has always repaid kindness, those who treat her well, she would treat even better, never doing anything that betrays her conscience.

But regarding the second household—

Su Jin truly didn’t need to displease the Prince for them.

Su Jin’s gaze fell on the plum blossom Xie Jinhuan held, she smiled, "Good choice of plum blossom."

After speaking, Su Jin’s attention was drawn to the blossoming plum blossoms.

Although these plum blossoms hadn’t fully bloomed, every branch had slightly opened buds.

Su Jin carefully selected the prettiest one, had Xingxing pick it, and arranged it in a vase to be sent to the Peony Garden.

Entering the room without notification, this time as she entered, she heard Xique speaking, "It moved, it moved."

Xique was touching the Princess Consort’s belly.

The Princess Consort frowned slightly, clearly being kicked painfully by the fetus in her womb.

Yet she was pained but joyous.

This little pain couldn’t compare to the joy in her heart?

Not being able to raise Xie Jingchen personally was the Princess Consort’s deep regret, heaven’s mercy granted her another pregnancy, she was eager for ten months gestation to give birth.

Xingxing, walking behind Su Jin, quickened her pace upon hearing the words from Xique, eyes aglow with novelty, "Did it really move?"

Saying this, handing the plum blossoms to Caiju, reaching out to touch the Princess Consort’s belly.

These days, the Princess Consort’s belly seemed to expand like inflating.

Xingxing felt around for quite a while, not feeling any movement, immediately a bit disappointed.

But her greatest disappointment was her young lady not conceiving yet, she was anxious.

Looking at the plum blossoms held by Caiju, the Princess Consort laughed, "These plum blossoms bloomed beautifully."

Not having strolled to the garden, unaware the plum blossoms had bloomed this well.

The Princess Consort was heavy, not fond of movement.

Mrs. Wang advised her to move more but didn’t allow her to go out.

Su Jin sat next to the Princess Consort and said, "The plum blossoms haven’t fully bloomed, it took a while to pick the best one."

"If the mother consort likes them, I will pick a branch daily to send over."

The Princess Consort chuckled, "A branch every few days is fine, those plum trees at the Prince Mansion can’t withstand you picking and sending daily."

Su Jin checked the Princess Consort’s pulse, it was strong, with nothing to remark on.

Though the Princess Consort’s belly had indeed grown significantly, a small two months were still needed before birth.

Su Jin spent half the day with the Princess Consort, but didn’t catch the Princess Consort being kicked, slightly disappointed.

Outside, a maid entered and declared, "Heir’s wife, the Heir of Marquis Jing Country’s wife has arrived."

Qin Hanhan coming to see her?

Su Jin felt delighted at heart, looking at the Princess Consort, she said, "I will go meet her."

The Princess Consort nodded with a smile.

Su Jin stepped out to meet Qin Hanhan, from a distance seeing Qin Hanhan entering through the second gate.

Upon seeing Su Jin, Qin Hanhan’s face was joyous, lightly lifting her skirt intent to run over.

After just a step, the nanny behind coughed once.

Qin Hanhan quietly set her skirt down and slowed her steps, indeed a young lady of good family manners.

The instant change, and the eye roll during that change, was fully seen by Su Jin, causing her to laugh, "What’s the matter?"

Qin Hanhan glanced at the nanny, supported Su Jin’s arm, quietly saying, "Don’t mention it, I truly haven’t felt at ease these days, borrowing the chance to find you for some relief."

Even speaking softly, evidently living in constraint.

Seeing her, Su Jin asked, "What’s troubling you?"

Qin Hanhan turned back for a look, the nanny hadn’t followed closely, remaining quite far.

Qin Hanhan pouted, the rules are indeed strict.

Gazing at Su Jin, Qin Hanhan lamented, "I don’t understand Daqi customs, it’s made me a laughingstock, my mother specifically found me a nanny to teach me the rules..."
