The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

It was early July when Yinxia and his group returned to Jiangnan. Qian Chongguang dragged his sick body to meet several people, and his condition became worse after the meetings.

All the famous doctors in Jiangnan were invited to the Qian Mansion, but they were all helpless against Qian Chongguang's illness and asserted that he would not live until next year. If they used the best medicine to keep him alive, he might be able to die before winter.

After resting for a few days, Yinxia and his companions were assigned to various places to perform duties.

Dongyu followed Qian Haochuan to do business, Jinchun stayed with the seriously ill Qian Chongguang to take care of him, Yinxia went to the courtyard of the eldest wife of the Qian family to take care of the newborn girl, and Qiuzhu went to the silk and satin shop to work as an accountant.

They were watching the last wave of people from the Qian family in the dark, but when they saw that they could not see anything unusual, they withdrew.

At the end of July, Yinxia disguised herself as a man and secretly left Jiangnan on horseback.

Thousands of miles away in Chaoyang City, a young woman was leaning comfortably on a recliner under a grape trellis, counting grapes one bunch at a time.

The little woman had thin eyebrows, a delicate nose, bright eyes and white teeth, and a palm-sized face. She was very pretty, but her skin was dull and her lips were not very red. She was ultimately not a stunning beauty.

However, in Chaoyang, a small coastal city, the young woman's appearance is already very outstanding, even prettier than the courtesan in Zuihuanlou.

The young woman was none other than Yan Muxi, who had escaped. She arrived in Chaoyang City two months ago, using the alias Miaoyin, and temporarily settled down in the courtyard here.

Chaoyang City is located at the easternmost part of Dafeng. It is a small coastal city with kind folk customs and pleasant climate. Yan Muxi liked it very much, so she rented a two-courtyard house in the city and lived there. She also hired a maid who could cook and take care of her daily life.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Mrs. Huang came over and asked, "What would you like to eat today, Madam Miaoyin? Please use less oil and less salt."

"I feel like my appetite is still good today, so make one more meat dish!" Yan Muxi narrowed his eyes and looked at Mrs. Wu with a gentle tone.

"How about stewing the chicken?" Mrs. Huang asked again.

Yan Muxi thought for a moment and said, "Let's stew the chicken with mushrooms. Don't stew the meat too well, and make the taste a little lighter."

"Okay, everything will be up to Madam Miaoyin." Mrs. Huang agreed hurriedly. Before turning around, she couldn't help but take another look at the beauty on the rattan chair.

I thought, what a good girl! She is beautiful, kind, and sweet-talking, but she became someone's mistress.

It's no wonder that she was mistaken for a mistress. The courtyard where Yan Muxi rented was not far from the government office, and all the people living around her were wealthy. She was just a young lady with a bun, living alone in a courtyard worth a lot of money. She could only be the mistress kept by a high-ranking official.

Yan Muxi did not intend to explain. Having a mistress has its advantages. The neighbors around her did not know who the man who supported her was, so they did not dare to provoke her easily, nor were they willing to associate with people of her status. Instead, she had a quiet life.

The relaxing and comfortable days passed by unusually quickly. In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed, July had gone and August had arrived.

Early that morning, Mrs. Huang was making breakfast in the kitchen when there was a knock on the door.

She hurried to the front door and asked through the door, "Who is it?"

The person outside the door answered, "I am here to look for my relatives. May I ask if Miss Miaoyin can live here?"

"Looking for relatives? Looking for what relatives?" Mrs. Huang asked again.

"My name is Lin Xia. I come from the border town. I am the elder brother of Madam Miaoyin. I heard that she moved here, so I came to look for her."

"Please wait a moment. I will go into the house and ask my wife and then come back to you." After saying this, Mrs. Huang turned around and went to the main room to report.

A moment later, Yan Muxi hurried out of the house and opened the door happily. The moment she saw the person coming, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

The person outside the door who claimed to be Lin Xia was not someone else but Yin Xia, who disguised herself as a man to look for Yan Muxi. She was also in tears, but she had to hold back from hugging Yan Muxi.

Yan Muxi hugged her and complained with sobs, "Why did you come just now? You made me wait anxiously for several months."

Before planning her escape, Yan Muxi told Yinxia, ​​Jinchun and Qiuzhu about the prepared escape route, but she did not tell Dongyu who could not keep secrets. If she escaped, they could all find her based on the secret code left by Tianshun Coach Company.

After leaving Fenglin Town, Yan Muxi did not dare to send anyone back to Luodu to inquire about the situation. He only heard from the merchants from Luodu that Prince Rong's wife had died and been buried. He did not know whether Yinxia and Dongyu, who had entered the forest with her, were safe.

After being worried for several months, I finally feel relieved when I see Yinxia is doing well.

Yin Xia was fine, and Dong Yu's safety was unknown. Yan Muxi couldn't wait to ask, "Is the fourth brother okay?"

Yinxia knew she was asking about Dongyu, and smiled with tears in her eyes, "Old Four is neither good nor bad. Because of you, she cried so hard that she couldn't open her eyes and suffered from dry eyes. But after this incident, she seems to be more stable than before and is no longer noisy."

Hearing that Dongyu was still alive and well, Yan Muxi finally put her mind at ease, yet she couldn't help feeling heartbroken.

Yinxia and the other two knew that she was not dead, so their sadness was only on the surface. Only Dongyu, who was kept in the dark, was probably extremely sad.

But there was no other way, Dongyu couldn't keep the secret, so for safety's sake he had to hide it from her.

"Are the second and third brothers okay?"

"Okay, everything is fine. We are just worried about you."

Seeing that the brother and sister were so excited that they lost their composure, Mrs. Huang reminded them, "What's the point of standing outside? Madam Miaoyin, please invite my brother into the house to talk!"

If siblings are seen hugging each other, the neighbors will definitely gossip about them.

Yan Muxi let go of Yin Xia and raised her hand to wipe away her tears. "Thanks to Sister Huang's reminder, brother must be exhausted from the long journey. Come into the house quickly." After saying that, she walked ahead to lead the way.

After turning around and moving some distance away, Yin Xia realized that Yan Muxi seemed to be fatter than before.

You can say she is fat, but her exposed face and neck are still the same as before, even thinner than before, only her waist looks a lot thicker.

With doubts in her heart, after entering the room, Yin Xia deliberately stared at Yan Muxi's waist and abdomen for a few more seconds.

The more I looked at it, the more I felt something was wrong. Not only had Yan Muxi's waist become thicker, but her belly was obviously bulging. Could she be a human?

Yin Xia opened her eyes wide in shock and opened her mouth subconsciously to ask the reason, but Yan Muxi shook his head and smiled at her.

After Mrs. Huang entered the kitchen, Yan Muxi raised her hand and touched her abdomen. Her eyes suddenly became very soft. "I am indeed pregnant."

Her guess was confirmed, and Yinxia was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.

After being stunned, she began to wipe away tears with heartache. Their young lady had to go through life and death difficulties and displacement while being pregnant. Not to mention a young lady who was brought up in the boudoir, even the daughter of an ordinary family might not be able to endure so much hardship.

Afraid that Yan Muxi would be upset because of her, Yin Xia cried for a few times and then held back her tears, asking in a trembling voice, "When did you have the child? Why didn't you tell me earlier? If something happens to you, how will we live?"

Seeing Yinxia trying hard to hold back her tears, Yan Muxi felt a lump in her throat and wanted to cry as well. Not wanting Yinxia to feel even more worried and guilty, she held back her tears and forced a smile.

"Oh~ Good Yinxia, ​​please stop crying! It's a good thing that I'm pregnant. I've wasted more than three years in Prince Rong's Mansion. It's a pity that you didn't bring anything with you!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Xia burst into tears again, "Aunt, you are not unwilling to suffer a loss, you are stupid, extremely stupid. You don't even plan to stay in Prince Rong's Mansion, but you insist on keeping the heir of Prince Rong's Mansion. You are so stupid!" After a pause, she continued, "How many months old is the child? Is he healthy? Have you seen a doctor?"

"It's been five months. I see the doctor every month to check her pulse. She's in good health." Yan Muxi handed her the handkerchief and said, "Don't cry. If you cry, the black powder on your face will be washed away. It will look funny with black and white patches on it."
