Chapter 289 Relief
Xiao Yunji loved excitement. Seeing so many people surrounding him, he giggled, his laughter like the tinkling of silver bells.

"So cute!" Jia Chunni pinched Xiao Yunji's cheek.

"Don't pinch it like that." Zhang Pandi said, but her body betrayed her, and her hand uncontrollably pinched Xiao Yunji's cheek.

"Mom, you're the one who's talking, you made more than I did."

"This little guy is so cheerful! You can tell he's a charming boy at such a young age. He'll be able to charm countless girls in the future," Wang Huanzhi said.

Wang Huanzhi and Zhang Yingdi's child stood in front of Xiao Yunji and asked, "Why doesn't the little brother have any teeth?"

"What did you feed him?" Zhang Yingdi was terrified when she discovered powder in Xiao Yunji's mouth.

"pastry."

"My little darling, he's still a baby and can't eat pastries. Luckily, these pastries melt in your mouth, otherwise you would have been in big trouble."

“It was my fault,” Jiang Jing said. “I was supposed to be watching over Xiao Yunji.”

The baby kept the Zhang sisters and several other children busy and flustered, creating a lively scene.

Zhang Zhaodi was laughing uncontrollably. She turned to Su Yaoguang and asked, "Did the child bother you?"

Su Yaoguang shook her head: "Apart from being a little sleepy, everything else is fine. My appetite wasn't very good when I first got pregnant, but it's been much better lately. Mom, do I look rounder? I'm only four months pregnant, but when I give birth, won't I gain dozens of pounds?"

Zhang Zhaodi is a little rounder than before she gave birth, but with Jiang Jing taking care of her, it's only a matter of time before she returns to her former appearance.

“What do you mean by ‘round’?” Zhang Zhaodi said, pulling her hand. “We’re eating two supplements each now, so our health is the most important thing. If Wang Shu dares to complain about you, your father will be the first to object. We’ll see how we deal with him then.”

Su Yaoguang hugged Zhang Zhaodi's arm: "It's so good to have Mother by my side."

"Yaoguang, there's something I've been hesitating about telling you, but I thought I'd tell you anyway, just like a casual chat between mother and daughter."

"Mom, tell me."

"That day, Xiao Ci made a huge scene in the prison, saying some lewd things. I was afraid his nonsense would get out, so I went with your father to see him. He said a lot of things, things that were very absurd. Your father and I thought he was delirious and didn't take it seriously. But that night, your father and I both had dreams, and in our dreams, it seemed like we were reliving what Xiao Ci had said. Your father saw the part about him; in the dream, he didn't regain his memory, nor did he reunite with us. In the end, he died in melancholy. I dreamed about you and Xiao Ci; in the dream, we took good care of Xiao Ci. But he was an ingrate; not only was he bad to you, but he also sent someone to kill me, and in the end, he even killed you."

"Daughter, don't cry..." Zhang Zhaodi wiped away Su Yaoguang's tears. "Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore, and I won't talk about it anymore. This kind of dream is too unlucky, and talking about it will only make our daughter sad."

“Mother, I’m sorry, that wasn’t a dream, it really happened.” Su Yaoguang hugged Zhang Zhaodi. “In my past life, I chose Xiao Yanci, loved him wholeheartedly, and insisted on marrying him, causing you to suffer with me. He was talented, but he always looked down on us. He enjoyed our sacrifices, yet felt we made him lose face. He secretly had an affair with Jiang Yihuan and even had a child with her outside the marriage. The things you dreamed about were all real.”

"If everything in your dream is real, then haven't you suffered a lot?"

"Mother, I've dragged you into this mess, why are you still only worried about me?"

“You are my daughter. As long as you are happy, I am willing to do anything for you,” Zhang Zhaodi said. “I only regret that I was too stupid and did not protect you well.”

Su Rende walked over and sat down next to Su Yaoguang, saying, "Girl, don't worry about anything these days. Leave the business matters to your second and third aunts. Just take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly."

"Father, don't worry, I'll definitely be a hands-off manager and not worry about anything." Zhou Wangshu draped the cloak over Su Yaoguang and said to Su Rende and Zhang Zhaodi, "It's still your parents who can make her happy. She's been looking down on things lately, and nothing I do can cheer her up. It seems she misses your parents but doesn't want you to know and worry about her."

"Silly boy……"

The Prime Minister's residence and the General's residence were completed one after the other, and they were even right across from each other.

One is the head of a civil official, and the other is the head of a military general; logically, their residences shouldn't be built so close together.

However, the blueprints had already been shown to the emperor, who tacitly approved them. As long as the emperor didn't say anything, no one else had the right to interfere.

A few months later, Su Yaoguang gave birth to twin sons under everyone's watchful eyes.

Zhou Wangshu took her hand and kissed her forehead: "Yaoguang, let's not have any more children."

"You cried?" Su Yaoguang noticed the wetness on his cheeks and teased him, "You're the Prime Minister. If others knew you were crying, your authority would be completely gone."

"I don't need authority, I just want Yaoguang to be alright."

"Yes, I'm fine now, really fine. I've never been happier than I am now." Su Yaoguang touched his cheek. "Those two boys have such loud voices."

The cries of two newborn babies echoed throughout the delivery room, louder than thunder.

"When Jing'er was diagnosed with twins, we were hoping for a daughter. Now, she's had two boys at once. Judging by the way they're doing it, they're definitely good at martial arts and can learn from their maternal grandfather."

"Ah ah..." Su Yunji poked the baby in the cradle.

“Haha… He’s so young and he already knows how to poke his cheeks,” Jia Chunni said. “When we first met him, we pinched his cheeks like that too.”

“Yaoguang is tired, let’s not disturb her, let her rest properly,” Zhang Pandi said.

Zhou Wangshu had chosen a wet nurse a month ago, and now the two babies were being cared for by the wet nurse.

The Zhang sisters couldn't get enough of looking at the two little ones, so they followed their wet nurse to another room.

Zhou Wangshu stayed in the room to keep Su Yaoguang company.

"Master, Madam is tired and will definitely sleep for a long time. Would you like to go and rest as well?"

"No, I'll stay with you and let you rest."

When Su Yaoguang woke up, he looked at Zhou Wangshu leaning against him and felt that everything was so wonderful.

"Thank you, Wangshu."

He made her realize that she, too, deserved to be truly loved. He realized that she was so good, worthy of the most steadfast love in the world.

She took his hand, their fingers intertwined, and drifted off to sleep again.
