OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 555: I Hope You Bring Me Good News

Second Aunt clicked her tongue twice.

"If we talk about seniority, Yingnan still has to call Madam ’Aunt’, what a confusing relationship."

Third Aunt chuckled softly as if enjoying the spectacle: "Our Madam, when it comes to the children left by her elder sister, her methods will only be more ruthless."

"But it’s none of our business. Who told her to be fortunate enough to bear a son for the master after only two years in the household."

Second Aunt spat, lowering her voice, "A sick ghost, he’ll be gone sooner or later."

The two of them walked away while talking.

In the hall, facing her mother’s sister, Liu Yingnan was very constrained and obedient.

"Mother," she said cautiously, "can I go and see my brother?"

Madam smiled softly; in the candlelight, the white pearl earrings on her earlobes made her face appear especially gentle.

But the aloofness between her brows could not be ignored.

"No rush, Yingnan, come here, mother has a few words to say to you." Madam beckoned her over.

Liu Yingnan walked up to her, allowing Madam to hold her fingertips.

"Yingnan, there are no outsiders here, so I won’t be formal with you."

"Your mother left early, and after I came into the household, I took on the responsibility of your sister, to raise you well."

"Now your brother is unwell. The doctor said some time ago that some precious medicinal herbs are not available in the local market, and only the special supply from the imperial palace has them."

Madam smiled, reaching out to stroke Liu Yingnan’s head.

"I’ve put in so much effort, constantly suggesting to the master, for you to compete for the position of a study companion, instead of your elder and second sisters. In secret, Second Aunt and Third Aunt have scolded me countless times."

"But I still insisted on sending you to the palace, do you know why?"

Liu Yingnan’s eyes were like a deer’s, shimmering with timidity.

She cautiously said, "Because Mother wants Yingnan to become a study companion and then plead with the Princess to treat my brother."

Madam nodded in satisfaction.

"Good child, truly smart. Your mother was my legitimate sister, and only with you am I truly family."

"Only if you become the study companion can your brother be saved. Yingnan, mother places all her hopes on you, do not disappoint me."

"Next time you return from the palace, I hope you can bring me good news."

Liu Yingnan quietly replied, "Mother, I understand."

Only then did Madam pat her hand: "Alright, take some snacks and go see your brother, he doesn’t even feel like eating properly when you’re not at home."

Liu Yingnan then took the last four snacks and went to the main courtyard, to the room where her brother lived.

Her brother, Liu Jiru, was the Liu Family’s only male child, so much so that Liu Yingnan’s father cherished him like a precious jade piece.

Whatever he ate, wore, and used, was always the best.

Unfortunately, Young Master Liu had been in poor health since childhood, born prematurely at seven months, and now, at two years old, he was still often sickly.

The maidservant, seeing Liu Yingnan arrive, opened the door for her.

"Ru, sister is back. She brought cakes from the palace."

The two-year-old boy lying on the bed weakly opened his eyes.

"Sister..."

Liu Yingnan walked to the bedside, asking with utmost care, "Do you feel better today?"

Two days ago, after bathing, Liu Jiru caught a chill and had a fever for two days, almost losing his life.

This made Master Liu so anxious that he beat several careless servants to death. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Liu Jiru nodded, his emaciated little face full of a sickly pallor: "Much better, sister. Mother said you went to the palace to get medicine for me."
