Han laughed and joked, "You are such a sharp-eyed kid. Your aunt is indeed pregnant."

Bai Qianqian's face was full of joy. "That's great, auntie. Congratulations."

Jiang smiled a little embarrassedly, "It will take a few months."

As the three were talking, Bai Qingbai walked out of the house.

Seeing Jiang, he greeted her with a smile: "Sister-in-law is here."

Jiang nodded, "Come and see you."

Bai Qingbai smiled and said, "You guys chat, I'll go out first."

Bai Qianqian smiled and waved to her father.

After Bai Qingbai left, Bai Qianqian pulled Jiang to sit on the stone bench in the yard.

She asked curiously, "Aunt, how do you feel now? Are you feeling unwell?"

Jiang smiled gently, "I'm not feeling uncomfortable, I just feel sleepy."

"Then auntie must pay more attention to rest." Bai Qianqian said with concern.

Jiang looked at Bai Qianqian with a smile in her eyes, "You are not leaving this time, are you?"

"I don't know yet." Bai Qianqian shook her head helplessly.

Jiang quickly changed the subject.

Han watched from the side with a smile in her eyes.

As he was talking, Niu Niu came out from the backyard rubbing his eyes.

Seeing Jiang, she was stunned for a moment, then called out obediently, "Aunt."

Jiang smiled and waved, "Niuniu, come here, come to your aunt."

Niu Niu ran over, and Jiang held him in her arms and teased him.

Bai Qianqian felt warm in her heart as she watched this heartwarming scene.

After a while, Qingqing and Qingyan came over with snacks.

Everyone was eating snacks and chatting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After sitting for a while, Jiang stood up and prepared to go back.

Bai Qianqian and Han saw Jiang off together.

Looking at Jiang's departing back, Bai Qianqian thought secretly that when her aunt's baby was born, she would definitely take good care of this little brother or sister.

Back in the yard, Bai Qianqian was in a particularly good mood thinking about her aunt's pregnancy.

She decided to go for a walk and buy some food suitable for pregnant women for her aunt.

So she called Qingqing and Qingyan and went out together.

The street is very lively with people coming and going.

Bai Qianqian took Qingqing and Qingyan to visit several shops and bought some supplements such as red dates and walnuts.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard a loud noise.

Bai Qianqian looked over curiously, only to see a group of people gathered in one place, not knowing what they were looking at.

She pulled Qingqing and Qingyan over to see what was going on.

When I got closer, I saw that it was a troupe of street performers performing.

I saw a man performing acrobatics. His movements were very thrilling and drew cheers from the people around him.

Bai Qianqian also watched with great interest.

After the performance, the performing troupe began to collect money.

Seeing that it was not easy for them, Bai Qianqian took out some money and put it on their plates.

The street performers looked at Bai Qianqian with gratitude and thanked her repeatedly.

Bai Qianqian smiled and left with Qingqing and Qingyan.

After returning home, Bai Qianqian gave the supplements she bought to Jiang.

Jiang was very moved. She held Bai Qianqian's hand and kept thanking her.

Bai Qianqian smiled and said, "Aunt, you don't have to be so polite. This is what I should do."

After thinking about it, he took out a spiritual fruit from his sleeve.

It’s not that she is stingy, but she doesn’t have much of this spiritual fruit left.

If you want to eat spiritual fruits again, the fruits in Guanzhou must be ripe.

Or the Wanjie platform is turned on, and she can connect to her friends to change.

Looking at the bright red fruit in front of him, Jiang was stunned for a moment.

She knew very well that she had never seen this kind of fruit.

Bai Qianqian smiled and let her eat.

Jiang didn't hesitate and started eating the fruit.

I have to say, the fruit is really delicious.

It was full of juice, and when she put it in her mouth, she felt much more energetic.

Bai Mengru, wearing a pink silk dress, walked into the room gracefully.

She spotted Bai Qianqian sitting there and immediately smiled, greeting her warmly, "Fourth sister, long time no see."

When Bai Qianqian heard the voice, she just raised her eyelids slightly, then lowered her head and continued eating the cake.

It seemed as if the pastry had infinite charm, which made her completely immersed in it and ignored Bai Mengru's arrival.

Bai Mengru's smile froze for a moment, and she suddenly felt unhappy.

She bit her lip secretly, thinking that Bai Qianqian was too disrespectful to her.

But she quickly adjusted her mood, turned to look at Jiang, and her eyes instantly became red.

"Mother, you have to make the decision for us." Bai Mengru said in tears, "The monthly allowance for mother and son is too little. It's not enough."

As she spoke, she secretly observed Bai Qianqian's reaction out of the corner of her eye, hoping that she would say a word for her for the sake of their relationship.

However, Bai Qianqian seemed to have not heard her words at all and was concentrating on tasting the pastry in her hand.

She took a light bite, and the delicate texture and sweet taste spread in her mouth, intoxicating her.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, enjoying this delicious moment, and had no intention of paying attention to Bai Mengru's crying.

When Jiang heard Bai Mengru's words, her brows furrowed tightly, and a look of dissatisfaction appeared on her face.

"Isn't one hundred taels of silver a month enough for you and your son? This is enough for an ordinary family to live on for a lifetime." There was a hint of severity in Jiang's tone.

She did feel that Bai Mengru had gone a little too far. Ever since she married into the family as Zuo Shang's second wife, she had been running the household with all her heart and had never withheld any money from anyone's monthly salary.

She gave what she should have given, and sometimes even took care of what she shouldn't have given.

But Bai Mengru actually had the nerve to come and cry poor, which really made her angry.

Bai Mengru felt nervous when she heard Jiang's words.

She knew that Jiang was telling the truth, but she still refused to accept it.

"Mother, you don't know, prices have risen sharply now, and one hundred taels of silver is really not enough. Besides, my mother and I have to buy some jewelry and clothes and attend various banquets, which costs a lot." Bai Mengru tried to defend herself, with a hint of grievance in her voice.

Jiang sneered, looked at Bai Mengru and said, "Humph, you attend the banquet and buy jewelry and clothes, that's your own vanity. One hundred taels of silver is enough for you to live a rich life, don't be ungrateful."

Jiang's eyes revealed determination; she would not allow Bai Mengru to act unreasonably again.

Bai Mengru bit her lip, secretly hating Bai Qianqian's indifference.

She thought Bai Qianqian would speak up for her because they were relatives, but she didn't expect her to be indifferent.

She glared at Bai Qianqian fiercely, her heart filled with resentment.

"Mother, you can't say that. We can't wear shabby clothes to attend the banquet, that would be a disgrace to the Left Prime Minister's Mansion." Bai Mengru tried again to get more monthly allowance for herself.
