C234 (2/2)

She looked at the child for a while, and finally, with great effort, she took out the jade pendant she wore on her body and gently placed it on the package wrapped around the child.

Cui Hua endured her tears and said with trembling lips: ”Don't worry Miss, this servant will take care of her as she grows up.”

Cui Hua spoke sincerely, but when Xu Yanzhu heard her, she shook her head. She opened her mouth and did not make a sound, but only two words came out clearly.

'Brother Yan '

After understanding the meaning of her own First Miss, Cui Hua hurriedly nodded her head: ”This servant will let them go find Young Master.”

Just as Cui Hua finished speaking, Yan Ye's voice came out from outside the door, ”No need to look, I'm here.” With that said, Yan Ye, who was covered in blood, walked in with large strides before he could even wash up.

Yan Ye didn't seem to see the child in Cui Hua's embrace, as he directly walked to Xu Yanzhu's side and grabbed her hand.

Xu Yanzhu understood Yan Ye, so after seeing him in such a state, she sighed lightly.

Hearing Xu Yanzhu's sigh, Yan Ye was just about to speak, but who knew that Xu Yanzhu, who was originally spiritless, would now look at him spiritedly and say: ”Brother Yan, you have to take good care of us, our daughter. Promise me, okay? ”

Looking at Xu Yanzhu who had suddenly gained strength, Yan Ye's brain felt like it had been struck by a person, the pain was so intense that he was not willing to speak.

He wanted to shake his head, wanted to tell Xu Yanzhu that he wouldn't be able to live without her.

But when he saw Xu Yanzhu's gaze fall on him, he couldn't open his mouth to speak.

”Brother Yan, I love you, so I love our child. Don't you love me?”

Xu Yanzhu looked at Yan Ye and blinked her eyes playfully, just like when they just met each other. The charming little girl, who was also playfully blinking her eyes at Ye Yan who pretended to be an adult.

Yan Ye wanted to say something, but under Xu Yanzhu's attentive gaze, he could only nod his head in the end, ”I will take care of our child as she grew up. According to grandmother, she is a daughter. I'll give her a name, rattan, okay? ”

”Alright.” Xu Yanzhu could feel the energy in her body draining, she looked at Yan Ye, then looked at Cui Hua and said: ”Tell Third Aunt, Yanzhu, no regrets.”

After saying that, Xu Yanzhu's gaze landed on the bundle in Cui Hua's arms.

Looking at her daughter, Xu Yanzhu slowly lost all of her strength. Then, she smiled and closed her eyes.

Just as Xu Yanzhu closed her eyes, Yan Ye suddenly roared out, ”Jewel!” And following Yan Ye's shout, the originally well-behaved rattan that was in Cui Hua's embrace, suddenly started to cry as well.

Outside the room, Empress Dowager Hu was being supported on both sides by both Mama Hu and Mama Su. At this moment, she too closed her eyes.

Empress Dowager Hu, who hadn't shed a tear for many years, finally had her face wet again today.

Capital, Xu Family

Dong Shu suddenly panicked. She looked at the porcelain cup that she had knocked down just a moment ago, and ignoring the burn where the bird's nest had landed on the back of her hand, she covered her heart.

Why did he panic?

Dong Shu didn't know what was wrong with her, she wanted to say something, but because she suddenly knocked over the porcelain cup just now, the few servants by her side quickly checked her wounds.

Sensing their movements, Dong Shu opened her mouth, and suddenly asked: ”Has there been any news from Cui Hua's side recently?”

Upon hearing Dong Shu's question, Ling Xiang, who was in charge of this matter, immediately stopped her movements and replied: ”Not yet.” After she finished speaking, Ling Xiang paused for a moment before continuing, ”However, I think it should be soon. There will definitely be some news coming over in the next few days.”

Hearing Ling Xiang's words, not only did Dong Shu not suppress the panic in his heart, she felt even worse in his heart.

The servants were unable to do so and could only send a message to Xu Shiqiu who was not at home.

When Xu Shiqiu returned, Dong Shu was lying on the bed. Facing the exquisite food sent by the kitchen, she had no appetite.

”I heard they said you were not well. What happened?” As Xu Shiqiu spoke, he quickly walked to Dong Shu's side and wanted to touch her forehead.

But the moment his hand was about to reach out, Dong Shu held his hand.

”Husband, I'm worried.”

When Dong Shu said this, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.

This was the first time that such a situation had occurred in his Young Girl. He was panicking, why would he be panicking?

He wanted to ask her what was going on, but the Dong Shu in his heart was unwilling to speak.

Dong Shu did not dare say anything, because just now when she was panicking, she felt as if Xu Yanzhu was saying something to her, and another thing she heard was Yan Ye's heart-wrenching cry.

Xu Shiqiu didn't know what was going on with Dong Shu, but he understood that the Young Girl was hiding something from him.

Dong Shu kept this a secret for a few days straight until Ye Shuo and Xu Yanhao sent messages to their respective desks.

Looking at the few words on the slip of paper, Xu Shiqiu suppressed the sadness in his heart. After simply calculating it, he remembered the unwell days in Young Girl.

Thinking that her brother-in-law mentioned today, wanting to arrange for her to be promoted to a new official, Xu Shiqiu, who was originally planning to fight for her, suddenly had another idea.

How about authority? So what if you have a heavy soldier?

All he wanted was to meet with the person he loved.
