After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 177

Not long after, the sound of banging on the table came from the room. Even through the door, the muffled sound was still clear, indicating the amount of force being used.

Zhi Xia initially wanted to go and see, but she was stopped by Liu Ling. "Don't go. The Wang family might have done something. If we go over and accidentally hurt your second brother's reputation..."

Zhi Xia realized that Liu Ling was right.

Everyone has their own privacy, hidden corners they don't want others to know about.

If they accidentally stumbled upon it, it would put her second brother in an even more awkward situation.

Fortunately, after a short while, the door was opened.

The old lady seemed a bit listless and was supported by An Zhiren.

The old master seemed fine, but his cold expression was somewhat intimidating.

"Wen Qing's mother, bring a pill from the tea cabinet for your grandmother," the old master instructed, and Liu Ling hurried to fetch it.

These pills were sent by Zhi Xia later on. The initial batch had already been consumed.

After taking them for a long time, both the old master and the old lady felt the effects. The pills not only nourished their bodies but also calmed their minds. They were indeed a good thing.

Under the care of her daughter-in-law, the old lady swallowed the pill, and she immediately felt much better. "These two children are almost weaned. Zhi Ren, tidy up and take your sister-in-law back with you. Your grandmother hasn't been feeling well these past few days. You go back and have your wife come over to take care of this old lady for a few days."

An Zhiren hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Yes, I'll listen to Grandma."

He understood very well that this so-called "taking care" was not as simple as serving tea and pouring water in the eyes of others.

The old master and the old lady already knew the whole story. Their opinion was that An Zhiren should handle the matter with the Wang family on his own. After all, he was not young anymore, and going through such experiences would be beneficial to him.

But Wang Caixiang was different. Being kept under An Zhiren's watchful eye for a long time would easily influence him.

A person with malicious intentions can scheme once, and they can strike again.

There's no thief that can be guarded against for a thousand days. If Wang Caixiang ends up conceiving a child, things would become difficult to handle.

Since Wang Caixiang insisted on entering their An family, then let her see how easy or difficult it is to enter this door. The old lady would treat her as an additional servant and make her regret it one day.

After An Zhiren and Liu Ling reluctantly left with Wen Qing, Zhi Xia walked over and expressed her concern, "Grandma, now that the situation has already happened, there are solutions. You shouldn't get too angry. It's not good for your health."

In front of her own granddaughter, the old lady seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and sighed, "I'm not angry. I'm worried about your second brother. This child has always been introverted and never actively troubles others. Who could have expected him to encounter such a situation? The Wang family truly has not a single good person. I was foolish enough to think that since the marriage had already happened, we should let them go with the flow. Bah, the older one gets, the more confused they become. I almost did something foolish."

Don't even mention that Wang Caixiang knows that Lao Er doesn't have such intentions towards Wang Caixiang now, even if he does, she cannot agree.

After comforting the old lady, the topic shifted to those medicinal pills. Zhi Xia only mentioned that she got help from a physician she met in the countryside, who also gave her a medical book. She passed it on to San Ge, and the family knows about it.

The old lady also mentioned that thanks to the medical book she gave, San Ge cured an important person and has officially become a practicing doctor. Furthermore, he has been studying the medicinal pills that Grandfather and the old lady are currently taking. However, due to the unique method of production, he can only identify a few main medicinal ingredients but is unclear about the specific formula.

Zhi Xia is not surprised by this. It's their family's expertise after all. According to the divine physician sister, she has been reciting medical verses since she could speak. It has been passed down through many generations and took more than 20 years of effort. How can San Ge understand it completely in just over a year?

Pei Jingteng made time to pick up Zhi Xia and Wanqing, coincidentally passing by An Zhiren and Wang Caixiang who were coming over.

Wang Caixiang still looked happy. Zhi Xia thought that it probably wouldn't be long before she couldn't even find a place to cry.

The table with the written couplets at the entrance was still there, but only a few people remained.

Pei Lao asked him, "Is your grandfather okay?"

That old man hurriedly called the child back just now, and from his expression, it's unclear what happened.

"Nothing serious." Even if Pei Lao were to know about this matter, it should be conveyed by Grandfather and not leaked from her.

Zhi Xia knows her limits.

Wanqing was being held by Pei Jingteng, so Zhi Xia went to take Chenye from Pei Lao's arms. "Dad, let me carry him back, so as not to disturb you here."

"Alright, I haven't been close to you these past few days. The little guy also misses his mom." It was obvious that as soon as Pei Chenye saw his mother, he bent over and reached out, making sounds resembling "mom" with his mouth.

Back in the room, probably because they hadn't seen each other for several days, both little ones wanted to be carried by their mother, and Pei Jingteng seemed somewhat redundant.

With only a pair of hands, she couldn't carry them both, so she took off her shoes and lay in bed with the three of them.

Since mid-afternoon, there had been occasional sounds of firecrackers.

Pei Chenye was brave. After a slight daze, he became excited and crawled into Pei Jingteng's arms, reaching out to go outside.

Wanqing, on the other hand, was much more timid and was scared, rushing into Zhi Xia's arms. It took a long time to calm her down, but she still couldn't be comforted completely.

Pei Jingteng took the eldest child outside, and Sister Zhang came over when she heard the children crying, properly helping to call their souls. "Wanqing... Soul, come..."

She waved her hand outside, reminding Zhi Xia, "A child's soul is unstable. If they get scared, quickly help them call their soul, otherwise, they might lose their soul."

Zhi Xia smiled and responded, "I understand, thank you, Sister Zhang."

Sister Zhang handed the child to Zhi Xia and said, "Then I'll go prepare the New Year's Eve dinner first."

Sister Zhang still has her mother-in-law at home, so she doesn't have to worry about everything and can prepare here before going back to have a meal directly.

Grandfather gave her a fish and meat two days ago, giving her plenty of face, so she's not afraid of being criticized when she goes home.

As everyone returned, Pei Jing told her at the door, "There are fireworks outside, cover the child's ears."

Since Chenye wasn't afraid, he thoughtfully closed the door for the two of them and held Chenye in his arms to watch the fireworks.

He covered the child's ears with one hand and watched the fireworks in the courtyard crackling and bursting into sparks. The little one kicked his legs excitedly and kept babbling. As a result, a drool dribbled down his chin and smeared on Pei Jing's chest.

Pei Jing cast a disdainful glance at her own chest and started to numb herself. She reminded herself that she gave birth to him and couldn't be disgusted.

Pei Jianguo, who had set off the fireworks, inadvertently noticed the situation here and curiously walked over to amuse the little one. "This little brat has quite the courage. Do you like fireworks?"

Today, Chenye clearly understood a lot of words, and he knew that fireworks were things that exploded. As soon as he heard those two words mentioned, he became excited and stomped his feet, but he couldn't speak, so he could only make "mhm" sounds.

Seeing his excitement, Pei Jianguo also found it amusing and ostentatiously took out a big firecracker. "Little one, watch as your brother sets off a big firework for you to see."
