If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Lu Yuan went to pay his respects to Old Master Shen, but the old man was old and wanted to wait for news from Jiang, so Lu Yuan persuaded him to go to sleep and rest first.

The old man can't stand the night.

Shen Sui'an came to find Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan was still wearing the black Feiyu suit. Under the night sky, the tall and slender man had a handsome face and an innate majesty and nobility. He looked at her deeply.

A soft look appeared in his eyes.

"My dear, mother gave birth to my younger brother safely." Shen Sui'an's lips curled up with a sweet smile.

Lu Yuan just looked at her with a smile.

Shen Sui'an praised his newborn brother again.

"My husband hasn't gone home yet, right?" Shen Suian asked. Otherwise, why would she still be wearing the Feiyu suit?

"The envoy from the Southern Dynasty will be coming to the capital tomorrow and needs to be in the palace tonight." Lu Yuan said. He sent someone home to tell her, and when he heard that she had come to the Shen family, he came over.

Shen Sui'an's heart sank slightly.

With the arrival of the envoys from the Southern Dynasty, Lu Yuan’s background may be discovered.

"Let's stay here tonight. There's nothing important happening at the Lu family anyway." Lu Yuan said.

Shen Sui'an held his hand and said, "Okay, but you have to be careful."

They had discussed it all and let everything take its course.

Now that Ruan Xinglin has come to the Lu family, it is no longer possible for Lu Yuan to hide his background if he wants to.

"I'll take you back to the house." Lu Yuan said.

He would be very busy in the next few days, and he didn't know how long he would have to see her again.

"Have you taken the medicine that Doctor Zhou gave you?" Shen Sui'an lowered his voice and asked with his cheeks slightly red.

"Hmm..." Lu Yuan nodded slightly.

Zhou Zhou also added some nourishing medicine to the medicine he prescribed for him. Every time he took it, he felt as if he had excess strength.

"Today I saw my mother giving birth to my younger brother. It looked very painful." Shen Sui'an said in a low voice.

Lu Yuan held her fingers tightly and said, "If you are afraid, we won't have the baby."

Shen Sui'an chuckled, "I'm not afraid."

She wants to have a child of her own.

Lu Yuan lowered his eyes to look at her and gently kissed her forehead.

After sending her back to the yard, he went back to the palace to continue his work until the night fell.

Shen Sui'an took a short rest, ate a bowl of noodles, and felt all his fatigue was gone.

She couldn't help but go to see her newborn brother. Seeing the little, soft baby sleeping soundly, her heart also softened.

Just at this moment, Jiang woke up.

"Where's the child? Bring him over to me and let me see him." Jiang's voice was hoarse.

She hasn't even seen the child she gave birth to at great pains.

Shen Sui'an didn't dare to hold such a small baby, so he asked the wet nurse to hold the baby and show it to Jiang.

"So ugly..." Jiang said with disgust, but her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Madam, the little boy hasn't grown up yet. You will see that he is different in a few days." The wet nurse said with a smile.

Jiang couldn't get enough of looking at her son. If she had the strength now, she would have wanted to hug him personally.

"Sui Sui, you have a younger brother now." Jiang said in a low voice.

Shen Sui'an smiled and said, "Yes, that's great."

At this time, the sleeping little guy moved his mouth and sobbed.

Jiang was horrified, "What happened to him?"

"Don't worry, madam. The young master is just hungry." The wet nurse was experienced and comforted Jiang immediately.

"Then go and feed him quickly." Jiang said hurriedly.

Shen Sui'an fed Jiang some ginseng porridge, "Mother's wish has finally come true."

Jiang was slightly startled, "Sui Sui, what did you call me?"

"You treat me like your own daughter. You are my mother. In the future, I will protect my brother and ensure his safe and smooth growth." Shen Sui'an said in a low voice.

"Yeah, yeah." Jiang choked slightly.

She really liked Shen Suian. The first time she saw this girl, she thought she was the most beautiful and delicate. She looked at her with a defensive look, like a little animal that couldn't find its mother.

From the moment she timidly called her Madam, Jiang made up her mind to treat Shen Sui'an as her own daughter and protect her to raise her well.

A girl without a mother needs more love.

When calling her mother today, Shen Sui'an already regarded her as equally important as his biological mother.

"Sui Sui, do you still want to tell your father this news?" When Jiang mentioned Shen Jianglin, she could not hide her disgust between her brows.

Fortunately, Shen Jianglin has been away from home and doesn't need to hang around her, otherwise she would not be in a good mood every day during her pregnancy.

Shen Sui'an nodded, "We should tell him, after all, he is his only legitimate son."

"I also decided to give three months' salary to all the servants in the house, so that everyone can be happy together."

Jiang smiled and said, "I'll do whatever you say."

Shen Sui'an: "Mother, you should rest first. I heard that women need to take good care of themselves after giving birth, otherwise they will suffer from chronic diseases."

"Okay." Jiang really wanted to ask whether Shen Sui'an had any good news after being married for so long.

But it's not appropriate to ask this question at this time.

It’s better to wait a while and then ask her quietly.

The news of Jiang giving birth to a child was known to the whole family, and Shen Mingyao naturally knew it too.

"Did she really give birth to a son?" Shen Mingyao felt uneasy.

He prayed for a long time, hoping that Jiang would not give birth to a child, and even if she did, it would be best if it was a daughter.

It turned out to be a son.

"Young Master, you will be the legitimate son of the Shen family in the future, which will definitely affect your status in the family." Nanny Wu, who was serving Shen Mingyao, looked worried.

Originally, the master had only one son, Shen Mingyao, so he was naturally raised with great respect. But it was different if he had a legitimate son.

Shen Mingyao's face turned pale. "What should we do?"

Nanny Wu whispered, "In fact, there were almost legitimate sons before, but they were all taken care of by the aunt."

"Why don't you ask Auntie what to do?"

Shen Mingyao nodded and said, "Tomorrow I will go and ask my grandmother to let me go see my aunt."

"No, the old lady won't agree. Young master, you are going to the academy for classes, so why don't you go and see your aunt quietly?" Nanny Wu said in a low voice.

"Okay, okay." Shen Mingyao nodded.

Early the next morning, Shen Mingyao went to the upper room to pay his respects.

He stood at the door and heard Old Master Shen discussing with Shen Sui'an what name to give to their newborn brother.

"Heaven has blessed him, and he is of the same bloodline. I hope he will become a pillar of society in the future, so let's name him Cheng." Old Master Shen said, "I hope he can shoulder the responsibility of supporting the Shen family in the future."

"Shen Mingcheng, what a nice name." Shen Suian said with a smile. She felt that Jiang would definitely like it too.

"Go ask your mother first. If she agrees, then make a decision. If she disagrees, there are other names here for her to choose from." said Old Master Shen.

Shen Sui'an covered his mouth and smiled. His grandfather was the Prime Minister, so his mother naturally thought that his name was the best.

Shen Mingyao's face at the door was almost distorted with jealousy.

What is the responsibility of the Shen family, what is the blessing of heaven.

Obviously, he is the one who brings glory to the Shen family!

He hated his newborn brother, he hated him so much, why didn't he just die!

If he didn't have a younger brother, he would be his father's only son.

"Let's go!" Shen Mingyao had a dark face. He didn't even bother to pay his respects. He turned around and left the upper room.
