Chapter 1267: Chapter 1262: The Difficulties of Production

Xiao Yu turned to look at her and his face softened with tenderness, “They did wrong and deserved to be punished, that is the Xiao family’s rule, but you are not the same as them, you don’t need to follow rules, just be happy.”

“Is it because I have Brother Yu to dote on me?” Su Miaoyan smiled, her little face as tender and radiant as a flower.

“Yes.”

Xiao Yu supported her waist and gently caressed her cheek, “Brother Yu will dote on you forever, as well as our child.”

As long as he was with her, he would take on everything for her in the future, letting her always bask in the sunshine, innocent and adorable.

Su Miaoyan returned to the courtyard happily, she wasn’t clueless, just unwilling to consciously understand and change into something she didn’t like.

...

When Aunt Yin was punished and came back, Su Miaoyan was waiting for her in the courtyard and had prepared some fine ointment. Handing it over to Aunt Yin, Su Miaoyan took her hand and said softly with a smile, “Aunt Yin, you don’t always have to worry about me being naive. I may be young, but I’m clever, aren’t I? Brother Yu likes me because I am adorable. If I were no longer adorable and became somber and proper, he might not like me. Has he not seen enough women who could be the Xiao family’s young madam? But he only likes me!”

Therefore, she wanted to be the way she liked herself, which was also the way that Brother Yu liked.

They didn’t need to deliberately change themselves for a status.

Living true to oneself, that was the best.

Aunt Yin knew all too well how cute and clever Su Miaoyan was, but she sighed heavily, “Madam doesn’t know the dangers of the Xiao family, you can be adorable now, young master is protecting you, but what about the rest of your life?”

“Why can’t it always be this way?” Su Miaoyan blinked her bright eyes, “Doesn’t Aunt Yin believe in Brother Yu’s abilities?”

Words reached Aunt Yin’s lips, but she hesitated.

She believed in Xiao Yu’s abilities, but she was equally worried… the voracious Xiao family, with its cunning and unpredictable changes!

But at this moment, who could change anything?

With Su Miaoyan acting sweetly coquettish, even Aunt Yin’s hardened heart melted, and she attended to Su Miaoyan as she rested.

The next afternoon, Su Miaoyan started to feel some pain in her stomach. Aunt Yin saw it and said, “This is the onset of labor! Quick, call over the doctor and the midwife from the yard.”

With her at Su Miaoyan’s bedside, the servants in the entire courtyard were serving well-ordered for Su Miaoyan’s childbirth. Su Miaoyan wasn’t too panicky; lying on the bed, she anxiously asked, “Auntie, hasn’t Brother Yu come yet? I want Brother Yu to be with me for the birth.”

She would feel at peace only by holding Brother Yu’s hand.

“Don’t hurry, madam, we’ve already gone to inform the young master, but the delivery room is traditionally not a place for men to enter, the young master will wait for you outside,” Aunt Yin comforted her, wiping the sweat from Su Miaoyan’s forehead.

“Oh,” Su Miaoyan lowered her head in disappointment, feeling the pain becoming even harder to bear.

Xiao Yu was interrogating people in a secret room, Xiao Muyan and the second steward were like two chunks of stinking, hard bone. After being tortured for a day without food or water, they hadn’t uttered a word. Xiao Yu’s expression was cold; he knew this couldn’t drag on, so upon arrival, he had the punishments intensified. The secret room was filled with Xiao Muyan’s agonized screams.

“Ah!!!! Xiao Yu!!!!!”

Xiao Muyan’s chest was pressed with a hot iron, flesh sizzling as she glared with bloodshot eyes like a vengeful ghost, “Xiao Yu, if you have the guts, kill me; otherwise, I will surely kill you!”

“You won’t get that chance. Ji Yun Country’s annexation of the other three countries depended entirely on the trading items you provided!”

Xiao Yu threw a secret letter, it hit the floor in front of Xiao Muyan, all their plans exposed without exception.
