Chapter 1366: Chapter 1367: Secretly Scheming

"Yunjin, your father is right. What happened was my fault. After the incident where the third child got hurt, I’ve realized my mistake. You and the third child are right; whether it is a boy or a girl is determined by fate, and we cannot force it. Initially, I was thinking of what’s best for you two when I made this foolish mistake."

Mrs. An was unusually out of character.

Su Yunjin could clearly see that Mrs. An still harbored dissatisfaction towards her despite her surprising apology, which made Su Yunjin very wary.

An abnormal behavior from Mrs. An certainly meant scheming was involved. She would have to be careful in how she responded later. Currently, both Xiangxiang and Xiaoshan were very close to Su Yunjin.

The two children were young and initially manipulated by Mrs. Zhang to be hostile towards Su Yunjin; now, knowing Su Yunjin’s kindness towards them, they were particularly fond of her. Upon arrival, the two children focused on Su Yunjin’s belly; Xiangxiang naively said, "Auntie Third, Nanny said there’s a little sister in your belly, and she said she can play with Xiaoshan and me once she’s born."

Xiangxiang hoped to have another child to play with and was very anticipative about the baby in Su Yunjin’s womb. Xiaoshan also stared at Su Yunjin’s belly, "Auntie Third, how much longer until the little sister is born?"

Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang unanimously said the child in Su Yunjin’s belly was a sister, clearly influenced by their grandmother, Mrs. An.

Otherwise, it’s impossible for both of them to attentively call her sister. The children looked innocent, and Su Yunjin smiled, "Xiaoshan, Xiangxiang, the little sister will be born next spring."

"Next year?" Xiangxiang felt waiting until next year was too long.

Her little face frowned.

Mrs. An also laughed, "Xiangxiang, you were also born in spring, when the flowers were blooming and the fragrance was rich everywhere. That’s why your grandfather named you Xiangxiang."

Xiangxiang widened her eyes.

Curious, she asked, "Nanny, my name is Xiangxiang, so will the little sister in Auntie Third’s belly also be called Xiangxiang?" Xiangxiang was young, and her thoughts were simple.

Mrs. An chuckled.

"Xiangxiang, you are already Xiangxiang. Your little sister will naturally have another name. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be confusing if both are called the same?"

Xiangxiang thought about it and nodded. Mrs. An affectionately looked at her granddaughter, then happily showed Su Yunjin the pork bones she had brought in her hands.

"Third daughter-in-law, I specially went to the market today to buy these pork bones. Use them to make a nourishing soup. I’ll go to the kitchen now and start cooking it for you, just wait a moment."

Mrs. An, carrying the pork bones, swayed towards the kitchen. Su Yunjin instinctively tried to stop her, "Mother, no need to trouble yourself, I just had a bowl of chicken soup this morning. I’m not hungry either; you better not bother."

Mrs. An bypassed Su Yunjin standing in front of her.

"How could I not? Third daughter-in-law, these pork bones were specially bought for you. Eating them would nourish both your body and the baby. I’m off to the kitchen to cook it now."

Today, Mrs. An also brought a packet of medicinal powder, which was a secret fertility drug for birthing a girl, given to her by the local midwife Mrs. Yu behind the Gu Family’s back.

In order to get Mrs. Yu to prepare the medication, Mrs. An even splurged a relatively large sum, giving a whole tael of silver to Mrs. Yu. Usually, Mrs. An wouldn’t even spend a copper coin carelessly.

This time, to make Su Yunjin give birth to a daughter, Mrs. An went to great lengths, even being unexpectedly generous with her
