fter the first time a sinister energy entered your body, I spent two years helping you get used to my Yin Qi. The Shen family has put in so much effort over these two years, both you and I should repa...I packed my luggage and my brother came up to help me carry it down. He reminded me to check with Old Mrs. Wu one more time.

Because this trip back home is estimated to be a short-term stay, even if Grandpa hands over the responsibilities to my brother, I still need to meet everyone in the family and conduct a handover ceremony.

My brother is the fourth generation currently, but actually, it's always been my grandfather who runs the family. If my brother takes over the head of the household position, he would be considered the second generation head. Such an age gap will definitely make many people disagree.

If you don't accept it, that's your problem. This spot belongs to my brother, and no one else can sit here.

The old master understood this perfectly. Ever since he found out who the "attendant" I served was, his attitude towards me and my brother became almost like taking whatever he wanted.

The most valuable treasures at the bottom of the coffin were all collected by my brother. He just went with the flow and gave them to us.

As usual, the old woman examined my pulse and checked my chest and pelvis... I was completely exposed to her.

"Girl, I heard you're going back home to do some big things. Just remember, don't get angry, upset, or cry too much... Getting angry can hinder milk flow, and if it builds up inside you, it'll cause all sorts of problems for your health." Old Lady Wu admonished.

She pinched my cheek and smiled, “Your husband takes good care of you... two little ones, and you're still so soft and supple, your skin could practically squeeze out water... I'm truly happy for you...”

I laughed and shrugged to dodge the old lady's pinching: "You guys, too! You, Grandma, my brother, my dad, Lao Chen, Da Bao... all of you protect me, and only then can I have the courage to wait for that day to come."

Before we left, my brother patted the tires and said with a bit of frustration, "I forgot to get them serviced. These tires need to be replaced too. Damn it, 4S store tires are so expensive. Replacing a whole set costs a lot of money."

"...It's not like we don't have the money to replace it. You know the password to my card at home, just get it yourself."

"Tsk, taking care of a car is just like taking care of a wife—it's a man's business. You give me enough pocket money, but it's still not enough to buy new tires I'm just too lazy to go." My brother laughed as he put his suitcase in the trunk.

"Yeah, yeah, you've got way too much allowance! You even take dates to Ritz-Carlton level hotels!" I quipped.

My brother's expression stiffened: "How did you know I don't think I told you where I was going, did I"

Well... I think I just gave away too much.

"Xiao Qiao, are you following me"

"No way! You drove here, how am I supposed to keep up! I just happened to see you from a friend at the Ritz-Carlton." I replied through gritted teeth.

My brother is very perceptive. He can tell who a familiar person is in three seconds.

"Lin Yanhuan or Lin Yanqin You know quite a few people, don't you Besides these two siblings, who else would show up in such a high-end place" he asked with a smile.

"...Miss Lin told me she saw you and asked if I liked petite girls. If you really do, bring her back for us to see," I said after getting into the back seat of the car, leaning against the driver's seat backrest, looking at his ears.

Jiang Qiyun told me that earlobes signify good fortune. After he pierced my ears, he told me to remember to wear earrings to make up for it, and to wear red ones. But I didn't think about wearing jewelry even when I was pregnant, so I just left them empty. I don't know if they will grow together.

My brother's earlobes are very similar to mine, not too big or small. They look soft and fleshy. I couldn't help but reach out and pinch them. They feel just like mine. So our fortunes must be about the same.

I have a husband who is extraordinary and very, very good. He should also have a wife who is very, very good, right

"Lin Yanqin is meddling in so many other people's business… I told you that they were just casual acquaintances, and they haven't even met a few times. There's no feeling there at all.” My brother said this calmly while starting the car.

"Brother, I want a sister-in-law!" I helplessly pinched his earlobe and shook it.

"Hehehe, rest assured, you won't have a sister-in-law." He was still as stubborn as ever.

Hmph… This fellow is really…

He let out a gruff laugh: "Don't worry about this, Xiao Qiao. I definitely won't get married... Of course, if one day I only have one bed partner, you can call her your sister-in-law."

Wow, my brother is so unique. He doesn't call his partner "wife" or "girlfriend," but "the only bed buddy"

"So, that means you have a few now, huh" I asked with a smirk.

"…"You little rascal! You're spoiled rotten by your husband! You think you can get away with bullying me" he laughed angrily.

He's driving, can't reach me. I laugh and lean back in the rear seat, propping my waist with a pillow.

Several hours ago, I could have taken a nap.

》》》

I was dozing off in the back seat when I suddenly felt the car stop for gas. My brother got out of the car, went to the restroom, and chatted with a passing driver for a while before returning to the car.

What's up Familiar face

"There are so many acquaintances when you're out and about! I saw that his car had license plates from his hometown, but it was covered in dust, so I asked him what happened." My brother started the car and continued driving.

"What did you ask"

"About the road, we'll get off the highway in a bit and have to drive on a bumpy road for a while. If you're prone to motion sickness, come sit in the front."

Soon, it was noon when we reached that bumpy stretch of road. This was the only way to reach our hometown county and from the county town, we would have to drive for a while longer to get back to the village.

Here, a highway interchange is being expanded. Although the blueprint hasn't been released yet, farmers are frantically building houses in anticipation of relocation. Compensation for demolition in such areas isn't substantial, but emboldened by rumors, farmers have erected row upon row of bare brick houses, turning them into makeshift businesses like car washes, tire repair shops, and roadside inns.

The consequence of haphazardly built houses is terrible roads. At a bumpy corner, my brother's tire blew out. He rolled his eyes and said, "Damn it, I thought I could make it all the way home... Xiao Qiao, come down and help me change the tire."

Now that the weather is getting warmer, the midday sun is scorching. Under the shade of the trees behind my house, an elderly woman is mending shoes.

My brother said, "Stay under the tree. I'll get you a folding stool to sit on. Don't expose your big belly to the sun."

The old woman heard this and said with a smile, “I have a stool here, come sit down. I also have sour plum soup at home, five yuan a bowl, have some to beat the heat.”

It turned out to be ordering drinks for the younger generation. My brother immediately said, "Two bowls, mine with ice, Qiao Qiao, you can't drink iced ones."

Sitting under the shade, sipping sour plum soup is so relaxing, but seeing my brother changing the tire with a jack makes me feel heartache. However, this guy is also lazy! He should have gone for maintenance and tire replacement long ago!

The old woman said enviously, "You two have such a good relationship…"

I'm getting a headache. This isn't the first time I've been misunderstood. Wearing a maternity dress and with my brother constantly looking after me, it's easy for people to jump to conclusions. I'm too tired to explain myself anymore.

I saw her house, three rooms, built on the bend of this dirt road. It's in a location where "anti-bow" chi is present. Doesn't she feel there's something wrong with her home up in a Taoist family from childhood. So I have to do morning and evening exercises. This time, in order to find Mu Wanchen, I prayed and kowtowed, Taiyi…Tai, Taichang saves suffering Tianzun seeks s...
