The green Apple-Flavored Xizhilang Jelly beside it was hers, too.
She and Mother really were destined for each other.
Hehe.
All my things.
She had now drawn the Cosmic Bag out of the gold medallion and condensed it in her palm. She could open it with spiritual energy.
Luckily, Mother had made her a little cloth pouch especially for her pacifier. That way, nobody would suspect anything when she took things out of the Cosmic Bag.
Hehe.
She picked up the piece of Dark Jade and put it in the little cloth pouch, then picked up the jelly and put that in, too.
The little pouch did not change at all.
Xia Wanwan patted her little belly in satisfaction.
Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle.
Hungry again, she finished the milk in the little jug beside her, then crawled off the bed to find more.
Fortunately, Liu Wan rushed over and caught her the moment she entered. Otherwise, the little one would have fallen.
"Hungry... hungry..." Xia Wanwan pointed at her belly.
Looking at that bulging little belly, Liu Wan fell into contemplation.
That night, noises once again rang out from Xie Jinqiu's courtyard until dawn.
The next day.
Zhong Youyan rose with a radiant smile and went to see Liu Wan.
Xia Wanwan was still asleep, so Liu Wan had someone brew tea in the courtyard and bring out the pastries Qing Sheng had made.
"Sister-in-law, I haven't come to pay my respects since marrying into the family. I just visited Mother-in-law and thought I would stop by to pay my respects to you."
Her tone was courteous, with none of the disdain one might have expected toward Liu Wan.
Liu Wan smiled faintly and asked with concern, "How is Mother-in-law?"
"She's all right, except her mouth is full of sores.
