Yan Qianqian

At dawn, when the eastern sky had just turned fish-belly white, Yan Wang rose early to begin practicing martial arts. His figure was agile, every move brimming with boundless power and momentum. By the time he finished a set of fist techniques, sweat covered his head, yet his spirit was exceptionally refreshed.

After a brief rest, Yan Wang decided to visit Wufangyuan to see Yan Shuang'er. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, the clever maid noticed and quickly went to inform Yan Shuang'er. In no time, Yan Shuang'er came out from inside the house to welcome him.

She wore a pale blue long skirt, its hem fluttering gently in the breeze like a fairy descending to earth. Seeing Yan Wang, Yan Shuang'er smiled and asked, "Fourth Brother, what brings you here in such a hurry?"

Yan Wang quickly walked up to Yan Shuang'er, bowed slightly, and said, "San Jie, after careful thought, I realize I must depart tomorrow, so I ought to go bid farewell to Eldest Sister. What do you think, San Jie?"

Yan Shuang'er considered briefly, then nodded slightly in agreement: "Fourth Brother speaks wisely. Since Eldest Sister married out, she has always cared for us deeply."

"Besides, her home is not far from ours, and she often returns to stay a few days. If you leave without telling Eldest Sister, she will surely feel sad and disappointed, and might even worry needlessly. Especially now that Eldest Sister has been pregnant for five months—expectant mothers are naturally emotional and prone to overthinking."

Yan Wang nodded repeatedly in agreement, then looked troubled and said, "But as an outsider male, it might be improper for me to visit Eldest Sister unannounced. So I hope San Jie will accompany me. Will you agree?"

Yan Shuang'er curled her lips and said in a coquettish voice, "Fine, no problem! But I truly didn't expect you, this little brat, to be so thoughtful sometimes!" Her bright, star-like eyes sparkled with surprise and teasing.

Hearing his sister's words, Yan Wang's usually stern face rarely flushed with a faint blush of embarrassment. He scratched his head awkwardly and muttered softly, "Sister, stop teasing me."

After speaking, they smiled at each other, then together boarded the luxurious carriage waiting at the gate. The wheels rolled forward, and the streets outside the carriage window were bustling and lively.

Along the way, they saw many fresh seasonal fruits, vibrant in color and fragrant. Yan Shuang'er loved them at first sight, so she had the carriage stop, got down, and carefully selected some.

Not long after continuing, several pieces of children's clothing displayed in a roadside shop caught Yan Shuang'er's eye. The clothes were exquisitely cute and suitable for either gender. Yan Shuang'er was delighted and bought them all without hesitation.

After buying what they needed, the two got back into the carriage and galloped toward the Shangshu Fu.

Soon, the carriage stopped steadily before the grand and solemn gate of the Shangshu Fu. Yan Shuang'er and Yan Wang got down in turn and asked the guard to announce that the Yan siblings had come to visit the Young Mistress.

The guard respectfully replied, "Very well, Miss Yan, Young Master Yan, please wait in the front hall for a moment. I will send someone to inform the Young Mistress at once." It turned out Guo Lanxin had specifically instructed that if the Yan siblings came to visit Xin'er, they need not wait long outside but be brought directly into the residence.

So the two handed their purchases to a servant to carry into the residence, then followed the guard leading the way to the front hall. Along the way, they saw deep courtyards and flourishing flowers and trees, fully displaying the grandeur and luxury of a wealthy household.

In a short while, they arrived at the spacious and bright front hall and sat quietly waiting for the Young Mistress. After a good while, Yan Xiner slowly walked over. Compared to two years ago, she now had a touch of mature charm. She carried her six-month pregnancy belly, her steps slightly unsteady, but her face beamed with happiness and joy.

When Yan Xiner stepped through the door, she immediately saw her younger siblings in the room. Her eyes lit up, and she called out joyfully, "Shuang'er, Wang'er!" Hearing Eldest Sister's call, the two siblings looked toward the door together and shouted in unison, "Eldest Sister!"

Seeing this, Yan Shuang'er quickly stepped forward, took Yan Xiner from the maid Linglong's hands, and carefully helped her sit down slowly. However, Yan Xiner kept muttering, "Oh my, it's only been six months—am I really that delicate?" Nevertheless, Yan Shuang'er insisted, "That won't do, Sister. You're carrying two children now; not a bit of danger is allowed!"

Yan Xiner couldn't help but smile slightly and teased, "Look at you, you sound exactly like Linglong." At this, Linglong, standing beside them, hurriedly said, "Of course, because we both only want the Young Mistress to be well!"

Since marrying into her husband's family, Yan Xiner's days had been smooth and comfortable. Her husband Ai Chun doted on her endlessly and cared for her deeply; and her mother-in-law Guo Lanxin also loved this daughter-in-law very much, treating her like her own daughter.

Before she was pregnant, whenever there was a flower-viewing banquet or other social event, her mother-in-law would take Yan Xiner along. And whenever she saw acquaintances, her mother-in-law couldn't help but praise Yan Xiner here and there, treating her as the apple of her eye.

Since Yan Xiner became pregnant, Guo Lanxin no longer attended various banquets. Every day she thought only of how to have the kitchen prepare delicious dishes for Yan Xiner in ever-changing styles. Feeling that one cook's skills were too limited, and fearing Yan Xiner would tire of the food, she specially hired three more highly skilled cooks to take turns cooking various flavors of dishes for Yan Xiner.

As a result, Yan Xiner's appetite increased day by day, and her figure gradually became rounder. However, Guo Lanxin always comforted her, saying, "Xiner, look at you, you're not fat at all! It's normal to gain a little weight during pregnancy."

Seeing Yan Xiner living so happily after marrying here, both of them felt great relief in their hearts and finally let go of their worries...
