Travel To The World Of Ca Li
The Third Generation, Xiu Yuheng.
In the corridor with the red lantern hanging high, Xiu Qixuan's eyes were so bright, that one could not take his eyes off.
It's curfew time but for today Xiu's residence is broken by the radiance of happiness. Starting from the anxiety of waiting until excited to see.
Yao Yunmei gave birth a week earlier than expected. There was panic among the servants who served in Manor Hui. But it did not last long when the healer came to help the procession of giving birth all came back conducive.
The servants passed by from inside the room carrying a large cup of blood-reddened water, they hurriedly replaced it with a cup of clean warm water.
Yao Yunmei's agonizing voice rang out loud, inside there the Young Madam was struggling to risk her life for the baby. Making those who heard him grimace.
Xiu Qixuan stood at the corner of the corridor with a calm watch all that. Behind her body, Xiao Rou stood with her face lowered, discomfort emanating from the servant girl.
"Xiao Rou, you can come back. No need to force myself to accompany me." Xiu Qixuan's clear and calm voice melodious.
"Nubi, it's fine. Thanks for your attention, Miss." Xiao Rou replied with a deep courtesy.
Xiu Qixuan did not reply and simply stared straight ahead. This girl is not too cruel to yourself if you change your attitude very suddenly and immediately make boundaries with everyone.
Since his return, Xiu Qixuan has become more reserved and loner. Even the radiance released by the girl suppressed all those who wanted to get close. The grace and respect formed among the servants became greater to him.
As for Xiao Rou and Xiao Taoli still interacting closely with Xiu Qixuan but feeling very different like there was an invisible membrane that restricted them.
Suddenly, the loud sound of baby crying was heard from inside the room making everyone let out a sigh of relief.
A while later, the female healer walked out of the room together with the smiling Xiu Jierui.
The robe that Xiu Qixuan wore fluttered in the wind as the girl with elegant rhythmic steps approached.
"Great Miss Xiu," the female physician's voice greeted respectfully as Xiu Qixuan stood before him.
"Tabib Lin," replied Xiu Qixuan with a slight bow and a faint smile.
"Xuan'er, why are you here? This isn't good for you." Xiu Jierui said with a sharp snort.
Today, Xiu Haocun's father is in the military camp for training new troops, while Xiu Huanran is too busy hanging around with his organization. Only the feisty Xiu Qixuan was even present here, when it was warned that this was something the girl should not witness on her own.
Xiu Qixuan looked at him and smiling calmly replied, "Dage, why are you today so stiff? I just want to see the look of the little niece I put between you." His voice was so light and calm, bringing up his role in the making of the little nephew. That of course made Xiu Jierui look embarrassed and glared at him very sharply.
"Alright, alright. You can go in, look until you're satisfied and don't come back." Xiu Jierui's grunts snatched away the full extent of defeat.
Xiu Qixuan only gave a small chuckle. Then, Xiu Jierui had to courteously escort Physician Lin to the front of the main gate of the residence. Making the remaining Xiu Qixuan accompanied by Xiao Rou slowly stepped in to enter the room.
From behind the closing curtain, Yao Yunmei, who was leaning tiredly, was put on the bed by holding a tiny baby figure in her hand.
Yao Yunmei turned his face when he heard the sound of footsteps slowly approaching. Arcing a smile full of happiness he said, "Xuan'er, come closer."
Xiu Qixuan approached to the side of the bed and the servants around Yao Yunmei immediately stepped aside to make room.
The figure of a handsome little baby with his body still reddened looks adorable in the sling of the mother. Xiu Qixuan looked at him lovingly.
Yao Yunmei gave birth to a third generation successor son of the Xiu Family General. With this her position as Madam is deeply rooted in the family.
"Heng'er salutes aunt." Yao Yunmei said with a shrivel voice deliberately made to imitate a small child, as if it represented the baby to give a greeting to Xiu Qixuan.
A faint curving smile on the girl's pretty face, "What's her name?" Xiu Qixuan asked with her arms stretched out to rub the tiny baby's soft cheeks.
"Xiu Yuheng." Yao Yunmei replied with a bow of face to look gently at her baby. The radiance of happiness seemed to cover his deathly pale and exhausted face.
Xiu Qixuan's body instantly stiffened and the girl quickly pulled her hand from the soft cheeks of the small baby figure.
"You think too much, I'm fine." Xiu Qixuan replied firmly not wanting this topic to continue.
Yao Yunmei nodded in understanding and did not want to force then the young mother said, "Hendong, Heng'er wants to recognize her aunt." with a slightly stalling hand revealing a handsome baby figure that was moving quietly.
Xiu Qixuan nodded and gently carried the handsome baby into her arms. At first the momo in the corner of the room wanted to ban her, but Yao Yunmei stared intently to warn her not to disturb them.
Xiu Qixuan was very painstaking and full of flexibility in carrying a baby, making people who saw her full of astonishment. Though Yao Yunmei alone must be taught by the momo and still stiff in carrying the baby. But Big Miss Xiu who had never done any menial work why was it so different?

Week Later.
Beautiful blooming flowers carry a fragrance that nourishes the sense of smell. Under the roof of the garden pavillun Xiu Residence, a figure of beauty who looks lonely stands enjoying the beauty brought by nature to him.
The first week of spring passed very quickly. Xiu Qixuan was pensive, she looked very tired to design a way to quickly solve all of this.
The information provided by Goddess Yinxi might help a little in the direction and decisions she would make.
The girl felt like she had forgotten something very important, she tried hard to remember all the details of the incident but still did not find the clarity of the awkwardness in her heart. Even the pain he finds if he learns the bad memories.
Taking a deep breath trying to decipher the concussion within. Then Xiu Qixuan turned around, 'Brukk.' her body hit a thin figure that turned out to be Xiao Rou.
Xiao Rou grimaced as it was slammed down by the violent impact inflicted from the internal strength of Xiu Qixuan's body. "Xuanxuan, you are so strong!" Chirped Xiao Rou with disrespectful reflexes.
Xiu Qixuan paid him no heed as she glanced at the thing coming out of Xiao Rou's pocket.
Meanwhile, Xiao Rou hurriedly patted her own mouth hard and shriveled full of regret for thinking Xiu Qixuan was angry.
Slowly Xiu Qixuan's body walked over then crouched down before Xiao Rou, this girl was so calm but let out an enormous pressure.
Xiao Rou closed both eyes with a body trembling in fear, thinking Xiu Qixuan wanted to punch to vent anger.
Xiu Qixuan's hands stretched out to pick up the object that was poking out from within the pocket sleeves of Xiao Rou's clothes. It was a small notebook that contained many detailed images of objects or humans that were beautifully written as if painted by a great designer.
A smile bloomed on the pretty face of Xiu Qixuan, she was like finding a plan in a new idea.
'Poo.' Xiu Qixuan gently patted the top of Xiao Rou's head, she smiled beamingly.
Xiao Rou opened her eyelids and looked at the lady with a look of astonishment.
"Xiao Rou, let's pursue your dreams together!" A statement came from Xiu Qixuan's tiny lips.
